Nodame in Paris! Anything Nodame Cantabile speaks for itself in terms of awesomeness.
Skip Beat!: My gripe with that description: Kyoko aims to become an actress or talento, not a singer. She also doesn't just get "furious"; she has a whole army of demons (yes, demons) who express her inner thoughts and personalities when angry and/or panicked in sinister (and frequently comedic!) fashion. Why the hell did they think the idol outfit was a good idea? She wears only one pink outfit in the manga, and that is highly memorable.
*pat pat pat* It's only a rough outline, merely to inform the person what kind of story it is. As for the cropped promotional image, so what? >_> The Greek sex anime only has a bunch of text.
A "slightly pervy" comedy entitled: "Greek Myths I'd Definitely Do". It will retell Greek myths with an emphasis on male-female relationships and the erotic side of each story.
If that doesn't mean it's an anime about (among other myths) Zeus and his many affairs, I don't know what is.
- Tytania (most anticipated show of the season for me; such a huge amount of pedigree going on here!) - Michiko to Hatchin (second most anticipated show; MANGLOBE STUDIOS AWWW YEEEEEAH ) - Tales of the Abyss (to see what all the fuss is about) - Zettai Yareru Grecia Shinwa (the premise sounded interesting when it was announced)
If there's time, will possibly will check out:
- Kuroshitsuji - Skip Beat - Hakushaku to Yousei - Alive - Mouryou no Hako - Kurozuka
Yawn, but good. There are maybe two shows here that seem like I'll get beyond episode 1. That's good because I already have enough on my plate as it is. Too many good shows would be bad.
Where do you go that I don't? I heard little about anything really.
I haven't heard a fuss about the anime specifically, but I go on some local anime group forums and a ton of people on there rave about the Tales series of games all the time (particularly Symphonia). I haven't played a Tales game since Tales of Destiny 2/Eternia, so I don't really know what they're raving about. New TotA anime is probably an easy opportunity to find out.

Aaaaaah. That explains, you see, the little I hear about the tales stuff is that it's all crap.
I want to check out Michiko to Hatchin. The premise of the show sounds like it will be lots of fun to watch. I also want to watch Nodame Cantabile in Paris. I loved the first series.
Percentage wise? Hard numbers or anything else? *no idea*
I just want to know if I can pre-screen in far shorter download periods. Most everything I am previously inclined to follow has been running for like 20 or so manga and is well established.
Watched Toradora. It's fun if you like anime school comedies, but nothing amazing. Also saw Casshern Sins, and that was quite the stylized thing. Not really sure what to make of it, don't even know the target audience they were going for.
Yay there's some more 'Today in class 5-2'. Man I really liked the series. Too bad it was only a oneshot manga, and only had 4 episodes. But a new series, thats made my day. Yay.
I've been liking the Bounen no Xamdou (already out on the PSN, apparently), the Blade of the Immortal, and the Casshern Sins.
Although Gundam 00 will always have that special 12-year-old-excitement special spot in my heart (at least until the next good Gundam show rolls around).
Wow, the art and animation in Casshern Sins is so hot. I'm really digging the thick black lines and the hybrid oldschool/newschool character designs. I never watched the original Casshan (but I'll take Scrym's word that it sucked), and the live-action movie was pretty damn silly, but Casshern Sins actually looks fairly awesome. Plot is a little vague so far, but I'm willing to grant it that since it was only a first episode.

AHHHHHHH! I can't stand the cliff hanger any longer.
Wow, all sequels. Might as well check out Shikabane Hime Aka, and give some random ones on the list at least a first look.

Oh, and I guess Toaru Majutsu no Index was pretty good too.
