"Newtype - End of the Year Special" , posted Sat 14 Dec 19:25

Okay! This will be the last Newtype trend of the year. Yeah.

For those who missed the details:

Title - # of episodes - Details and website

Macross Zero - ? - You know what this is. The first DVD will be out on the 27th. Most likely, it's a new OVA series.

http://www.macross.co.jp/zero/

Limeiro Senkikan - 13 - Written by Akahori Satoru, it's a clone of Sakura Taisen. Bunch of girls in a military academy, fighting evil with mecha and spiritual powers, taking place in WWI Japan, very similar indeed. It's being done by KSS, so it should be fairly high quality. This, I'm going to check out.

Stratus Four - 13 - I think it's about four girls in a Blue Angels type of team. It's directed by Mori Takeshi. (Vandread) Charaters designs are by the Aika team. Might check it out, if I have nothing to do.

Mouse - 12 X 15 min. - Also written by Akahori Satoru, basically about a super-thief and his 3 S&M lovin' assistant girls. (Don't ask.) The manga's pretty hentaiish, but most of it will be dropped for TV, I assume. I doubt this will be ranked high on my list in terms of series to watch.

Astro Boy - ? - New Astro Boy. Pretty self explanatory. I'll check it out.

http://www.animax.co.jp/happynewanimax/index.php3

Wolf's Rain - ? - You should know what this is by now. I know I'm looking forward to this.

http://www.bones.co.jp/ur/ur.html

.Hack - ? - More .Hack, but this one looks kiddy. Oro?

http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/hack_udeden/main_index.html

Nanaka 6/17 (as in Ranma 1/2) - ? - It's about a girl (Nanaka) who's 17 years old, but goes through some trauma over a guy and gets the personality of a 6 yr old, thus you have the 6/17. Sounds like a shoujo series, but it's actually based off of a shounen manga. I'll analyze this more before I think about watching it.

http://www.jcstaff.co.jp/osirase/nanaka.htm

Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - ? - It's about a girl who's trying to become a witch in modern day Tokyo. Well, modern day Tokyo with magic users running around. To some of you, this looks kinda boring, a la Piano - again to some of you (since I never saw that series yet), but there been hearing a bit of hype over this show for a few months now. Plus it has some nice art. Hope the series lives to its hype.

Gun Parade March - 12 - Based off a PSX game, it's about a bunch of kids battling evil with mecha, this time in a futuristic setting. Hmmm....

http://www.kuroitsuki.com/gpm/gpm.html

Onegai Teacher - ? - More Onegai. Two new characters are shown. Hope it will be decent.

http://www.please-please.jp/one2/index.html

Scrapped Princess has been pushed back.

its actually not onegai teacher, but its part of the one series that was planned, most likely it will have little relation to oneti.

I wonder what the one this time would be though, onegai... nurse?

Hmm, if Status 4 is like 801 TTS Air Bats (Forget it's Japanese title) then it might be an intresting watch. Other than that nothing really stands out to me for the next season beyond the stand bys...

Here's to Azuma-sensei making more Azumanga! Seriously, by the time I wanted to bump it up, it was at the other page. Thus, I couldn't bump it all the way to the top.

Oh! So, that's what it is. Okay.

Osaka: In jail for slashing a student's throat.

Kagura: Drowned.

Tomo: Yomi's do-nothing roomate.

Yomi: Dangerously overweight. Works 2 minimum wage jobs.

"Its true." , posted Sun 15 Dec 04:46

Yeah, its true, I asked some friends of mine that work in JC Staff, what sabo10 says is all completely true. They're aiming to start the series in spring 2003, but nothing's set in stone since a lot of it is still in the planning stages.

Ah, and the second GiTS movie wasn't mentioned? I'd thought the news'd spread fast since some days ago.
