Yes, you have the adaptations of the first Rozen Maiden manga, which aired from 2004 to 2006 and were handled by Kou Matsuo at Nomad. I have not watched them but they don't have a great reputation. Then you have the adaptation of the second Rozen Maiden manga, which aired in 2013 and was handled by Mamoru Hatakeyama at DEEN. It still suffers somewhat from flaws of the source material, but is overall a stellar experience. I have an analysis of the Rozen Maiden 2013 ED which gives you a sense of what Hatakeyama is capable of.
I've heard good things about Pokemon XY. I should start watching that sometime.

It's "the next big thing." WSJ will be pushing it to fill in the Naruto void, and that void could be filled with something a lot, LOT worse then MHA. The art is charming, the protagonist is likeable, the setup for something great is there. It is hardly a year old so it is hard to guess where it will go but along with Shokugeki no Soma it is giving me hopes for Jump's future. It's a good mix of golden age superheroes and shonen manga, I find.

That Hero Academia cover is amazing! holy...I hope it's going to be a great adaptation.

I've watched the first season of it and it's mostly just blandly inoffensive and not really worth watching. The first season at least fits in with the continuity of Rozen Maiden 2013, the 2nd season is where things diverge.
But the awkward introduction/summary episode of 2013 mostly does its job of bringing you up to speed.

Guys, there's more places to get animated pictures of anime scenes than tumblr and google image search you know.
Check out Sakugabooru.
They've got cool stuff like this.

Hopefully it doesn't end up with Toei then.

Uh, Masaaki Iwane, the incredible animator who does several solo episodes a year, has been working on Pokemon for a long time.

Toei only seems interested in shows that will run eternally or old legacy series like PreCure or Sailor Moon, and MHA only has around 60 chapters so I doubt them.
I'm gonna guess Pierrot

Didn't Toei pick up World Trigger around that number of chapters?

Not sure? It looks like they are already gunning for 100 episodes of that, though. Which sounds terrible, WT started in 2013 ffs
Anyway I remember people talking about the Toho listing meaning either A-1 or JC Staff forget which
What about World Trigger? That's only two years old.
WT is into anime original content now though, so yep Toei jumped the gun before there was a lot of material to cover.
Don't think JC staff will get it. LN harems seem to their calling now.
World Trigger got an anime announcement at the same number of chapter (60+) and they are making a long running series, so I guess it's going to be similar with My Hero Academia as well.

Yeah guess I was wrong. Toei could happen.

Toho is a large production company which works with a whole bunch of studios; see this list. I don't think you can predict anything from their involvement.
JC Staff just did Soma.

Toho is involved in A-1 (aniplex) anime? That seems unlikely.
Hero Academia is as generic (very predictable) super hero series. Its yet to hit its stride .
I love it for its characters (Denki Kaminari ftw) and Todoroki (please let his hair get a dedicated animator).

Honestly I think it's mediocre because it's generic and cliched. Not to say it's bad, however it's not something that you would call great. It's pretty much run of the mill generic Battle Shonen that only has characters going for it and even then it isn't enough. I mean you can go ahead and read it but don't expect anything special or great. Also the pacing of the series is really fast.
Although my thoughts on the series being negative probably comes from the fact that I care little for anything in Weekly Shonen Jump. I remember when I was a huge One Piece fan but now I'm kinda meh on it. That goddamn timeskip.

And it will only get better from here. Escaflowne is such a great show. Enjoy it.

Holy shit! Hiroshi Nagahama (Flowers of Evil, Mushishi) is actually doing his dream superhero anime with Stan Lee. Umakoshi and DEEN may also be involved. I'll be excited for anything Nagahama has planned, of course. It'll get officially revealed tomorrow.

Awesome! Stan Lee and anime is always an interesting combination.
Why would a superhero anime be a waste of talent?

Where is my Stan Lee and Takei Karakuridouji Ultimo anime !!!

Probably because the concept itself is overly saturated at this point.

More like black white was the odd one considering it took a team of fucking legendaries to knock ash out of the league in d/p, and even then ash was the only person to beat the guy's darkrai in the entire tournament, so he was really the second best thereSo, on top of the really stellar animation in Pokemon X and Y, Ash is so competent in it. It's weird to think that this arc follows BW Ash...who was kind of an idiot.

Sure, but that doesn't mean they're bad by default. They can still end up being creative, interesting, and fun shows.
this shit actually had me mad, ash was really lookin to win the whole tournament but then that fuckhead just showed up with some legendaries
like what the hell

Why is this so good? I hardly ever watch sports anime, but some friends convinced me on this, and holy shit. A volleyball anime shouldn't be this good.
The animation is great in the split second shots Hinata does. I can almost feel the impact of some spikes.
They even quoted Bernardinho on this, gods.

Hello AnimeGaf. I'm new here and I just finished watching Monster (great anime btw) and was wondering if you'd all help me decide which anime I should watch next. I plan to watch all those I list below but am stuck on which to start with. I've heard good things about all of them and figured it's about time I get started on them.
Ping Pong The Animation
Shirobako
Hyouka
Tokyo Godfathers

All of those are great picks. I would go with Tokyo Godfathers since it's a movie and shorter, then Ping Pong since it's only 11 episodes.
Nobody is saying it out of wanting Toei to adapt it, it's just one of the many possible studios that might do it.

Because Furudate is a sports writing god.He does no wrong (and he actually did play volleyball)
Just start from the top. They're all great.

I'd personally go with Shirobako out of those, but you can't really go wrong with any of them.
Who cares as long as the work itself is good.

What reason is there to end it. Theres lots of content out there to keep giving us new stories with the pt1 characters.
