Dusk Maiden of Amnesia
This looks bloody interesting tbh. The superior animation, soundtrack, and mystery theme is definitely something to keep an eye on. I've yet to read the manga but this anime is going on my to-watch list. Tsuritama Hmm, not much to say on this one. I know Noitamina can deliver some pretty unique and interesting stuff but hmm... Queen's Blade Rebellion Looks great, I'll marathon this after the series finishing airing :> Natsuiro Kiseki I'm going to keep an eye on this when it airs. Good chance I'll marathon later this year if I hear good things about it. Eureka Seven: AO Do want. Original Eureka Seven was epic and and I'm sure a lot of mecha fans are happy to see this. I'm a bit curious who might stream this series though. Hyouka
Interesting. Medaka Box My body's ready for this. This Spring season looks great so far. Is This a Zombie of the Dead? Season 2 of Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? Upotte!!

Kinda reeks of the Another of this season, so I'll pass on it.

I was wondering when we'd start to see Anime Spotlights for the spring season.
This series doesn't quite grab me; it's a nice enough premise, it could even be interesting, but nothing yet really seems distinctive or interesting. I'm at least more agreeable toward it now than I was when all knew of it was just a picture of some woman's cleavage and a short description. (As it appears on the season chart) |

I had read a few chapters of the manga a while back and it wasn't bad. It had a mix of horror, tragedy and some light comedy. Yuuko can be a bit of a naughty ghost at times at times too.

I would at least give one epiosde a chance it seems to be more on the mystery level not killing or murders. Yes I will admit i am getting that vibe but damn... I need something to mess with me. |

Huh, I had no idea there was an anime of this coming out. I remember reading some of the manga awhile ago.
It's nothing like "Another", It's more of an investigation series like "Ghost Hunt". Last edited by v1cious on Mon Mar 12, 2012 12:50 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Watch the first episode at least. There's also 2 other horror/mystery related series for Spring season: Hyouka and Sankarea. |

This sounds like a 2 for 1 combo of both Ghost Hunt and Ghost Stories. I love my horror/mystery so I will more then likely watch it.

I think I could already venture a guess, judging by the male gaze shots in the promo and a couple screencaps, but still... how much of an ecchi element might there be here?

Looking back some of Silver Link's previous shows, they really are good with the gradient and lighting effects in their art for their shows, even to the point of rivaling with P.A. Work's art talent. Just like with J.C. Staff, the art style that Silver Link does has become pretty apparent and easier to distinguish from other animation companies.
Thank you ANN for this preview! I'll be checking this out!

Okay, I am no way ready for this. Can't we wait until the tourney is over, at least? During these next three weeks, my anime viewing falls to near zero.
The show looks interesting enough, and I'll watch the first episode at least. But I don't like the name. Any time I hear the word 'amnesia', it reminds of the Futurama episode where everyone on All My Circuits has amnesia, and so I doubt can take it seriously. //This show is awesome! When I grow up, I'm going to have so much amnesia! ///Me too! I mean, I already have it, I just forgot. |

Helps that Oonuma Shin has a really distinctive approach to light and colour composition. Much like Shinbo and Shaft, that style works its way into the studio, even if he's not working on a project directly. Nice to see the style he used with ef ~memories~ again in this show. |
