Unlike the false idol Star Driver, I expect Guilty Crown to deliver in the tradition of fine shows like Garzey's Wing.

As someone who has always had a mild interest in anime, and has watched a recommended series here and there, these threads/trailers don't inspire any confidence in me watching these shows.

Nobody here has any confidence either except for maybe GC because of it's FABULOUS potential.

There isn't too much to be had, but there's been good stuff this year already, some continuing into this season.

And you should keep doing so. Let others suffer first.

Did Broken Blade ever go anywhere? The first one was like, a little interesting but boring at the same time.
Original ending for the anime.

The Usagi Drop manga is alot better than the anime, because it is more than just cute slice of life stuff.

There's nothing inherently wrong with "cute slice of life stuff," especially if it's as well-written, directed, and animated as Usagi Drop is.

That I'm not sure. I was skeptical of the director, but the previews have been pretty awesome so far.

Guilty Crown looks boss, and Fate/Zero is Nasu/Gen, so I must watch. Also: WORKING’!!

Well if Sawako was anything like Ringo the show sure would be a lot shorter.

It's an interesting parallel if anything.
Ringo's hijinks bring out the psychotic tendencies in her. Sawako's bring out the psychotic tendencies of her audience.

Spoiler tags for those who aren't on board the Penguin train yet.

Well that isn't too hard, because Star Driver is just dull most of the the time.

As for the upcoming season, I expect nothing but generic blandness from most of these shows.

Which is the worst insult I can dull out. Nothing worse than being boring.

Oh come on, it can't possibly be as bad as Blood-C last season, can it? :p

Just Persona 4, Working and Squid Girl for me.

Persona 4 the Animation will rock though. But I also fit into all of the categories you mentioned, so...

Persona 4 will be awesome. It has to be. :( God, this season truly looks awful.
It's beautiful that you all believe.

I hope never to get hit by
Usagi Drop
manga spoilers because by all accounts it retroactively ruins the series
:T
Not at all, you just have to remember that
the manga doesn't exist.

If we get another Blood-C I'd be pretty damn happy. That show is made of hilarity and squishy organs.

Hrm, doesn't look like anything I'd really be interested in aside from P4, Unicorn and maybe Guilty Crown.

Wait. Guilty Crown's a two-cour show? Fuck yes!
It's disappointing really. I mean, what are the kind of shows to get two or more cours these days? Idolm@ster? Guilty Crown? Shiki? All the best shows are one cour!

(Okay, so Kaiji and Penguin Drum exist but they are the exceptions!)

I have low expectations of one-cour shows after Blood-C's spending five episodes going nowhere, and spending five more episodes going nowhere with hilarious squishy organs. *shrugs*

Bad example. We aren't talking about Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi.
No fair, you edited!

Nekogami wasn't a bad show it was just utterly dull and unengaging. Which is even worse, actually.
