Anime Lineup: Spring 2009

I say Eden of the East trumps Shangri-La. S-L's first ep was very haphazardly done, waiting for Eden to make a proper estimation.
K-ON! has wiped the floor with Saki for opening episode popularity, but so far I'm liking both shows.
Sengoku Basara and Queen's Blade I'm watching just for the unadulterated heck of it.
A friend of mine made me watch the first ep of Mazinger, I think I'll give that one some time as well.

Hope there'll be a nice group picking up for the following reasons:
1) HorribleSubs...well, how do they sub? Don't like it
2) Crunchyroll... I live outside the US

HorribleSubs are crunchyroll subs. =p

And the subs are not actually horrible, though since they just rip the streams, the video quality is pretty horrible.

Maybe it's because I just read the corresponding chapter in the manga, but I found the openings to both K-ON! and Saki to be quite a bit more amusing than the first episode of Hayate S2 - they might need to take some liberty with the source material in order to keep it fresh.

My first impressions of what I've seen so far:
FMA- Better than the first with worse comedic scenes. A bit leery on that, but I'm looking forward to it regardless.
Asura Cryin'- Index with mechs? It looks like they've tried to stuff everything possible into it: Magic, mechs, harem, a ghost, the church, probably politics as well... could be a total mess. Looking interesting though.
Pandora Hearts- Weird is all I can say. Wth is up with the rabbit in the opening?! I'm getting flashbacks of Donnie Darko!
Shangri-La- The only series that I'll probably follow as its released. Seemed a bit scatterbrained to start, but solid overall. Have high hopes for this one.
Sengoku Basara- Woo! Damn good action. Gotta love all-out wars with swords!
