CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Hey all,

Just wondering what your watchlists were for fall 2007? I've been trying to find in-depth reviews, but without much success (AnimeNewsNetwork's Preview Guide was sadly lacking).

EDIT: i.e. Fall Anime Season 2007, particularly series that are starting IN JAPAN this fall rather than series that started earlier and continue into the fall.

The multitude of ren-ai game adaptions is a bit depressing, since I have no interest in that genre. I get the feeling that fall isn't nearly as good as spring was, but then again, 3 of Spring 2007 season made my list of Favorite Anime of All Time (tm), so I guess that doesn't mean much it itself.

Right now, I know I'm definitely watching <b>Shion no Ou</b> because I absolutely loved the little bit of manga I read of it (think Hikaru no Go, except it's about shougi, there are no ghosts, and the main character is a girl who became mute after her parents were killed right before her eyes... yeah. And Paku Romi's role is... amazing in this.). I'm on the fence about <b>Gundam 00</b> simply because I'm not a Gundam fan in the slightest, but I might give it a chance. <b>Kaiji</b> seems interesting to me because gambling and dire situations really excite me, but I have to watch a little more to see how it goes (it's kind of similar to the J-drama Liar Game). I might drop the girls-in-kendo-club anime <b>Bamboo Blade</b>; it's funny, but not wholly original. Also wondering is <b>Rental Magica</b> is worth picking up.

Et vous?

Right now on tv it's:
Virus Buster Serge
Noein
Naruto
One Piece
Dragonball Z
Digimon
Blood+
on DVD I am currently going through:
Haibane Renmei
Kimagure Orange Road
I am also waiting for:
Wedding Peach
Though I am also going through the rest of my collection and watching whatever the rest of the week.This week I plan on watching Inuyasha and Samurai Champloo.

Sorry, I meant watchlist of the Fall 2007 Anime Season, i.e. series that airing in Japan right now.

Nothing too interesting for me to watch... really hasn't been too many anime that intrigued me as of late :/ I'll check into Clannad TV definitely, though. I also remembering hearing about xxxHOLiC season 2, but dunno when it'll be airing (will definitely check that out^^)

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is still coming out, and ef - a Tale of Memories just started... and it looks promising.

Gotta finish collecting Utawarerumono as it comes out, and the second season of Black Lagoon. I'm gonna keep an eye out for the second FMP season box set, too.

The only thing that I really care about seeing is You're Under Arrest! FULL THROTTLE and ef - a tale of memories.

But the rest of the fall season looks blah!

Thus far it seems to be a lackluster season. Moyashimon has novelty value, but there doesn't seem to be much to it beyond the gimmick. Mokke, Ghost Hound and Shion no Ou may be good, but it's too soon to tell.

A couple of series that started earlier this year are still being subtitled, Oh! Edo Rocket and Denno Coil. If you haven't yet seen them, they're worth your time.

YUA-FULL THROTTLE is my pick as well as Oh Edo Rocket and ef. Really, is Oh Edo Rocket any weird?

None of the titles have caught my interest yet. However, I haven't been trying that hard because my schedule could use some extra half hours every week.

Also, note that this forum uses tags similar to HTML, but use brackets instead of wickets.

as UC said, none of the titles really stand out to me either...

Fall 2007
Ghost Hound
Jyuushin Enbu "Hero Tales"
Kaiji
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 - possibly dropping
Rental Magica - possibly dropping

Summer 2007
Baccano!

Spring 2007

Oh! Edo Rocket
