Plus how agonizingly uncertain things are when you are a young adult trying to start a career..
Yeah. This is really pretty sane. Maybe its this season's Seiyu's Life. Definitely wears its 4-koma roots on its sleeve.

Looks amazing.
Just when I thought Masashi Hamauzu wasn't going to do another TV anime after Binbougami ga, I FIND OUT HE'S WORKING ON CLASSICALOID
FUCK YEAH
Though it says there that he's the musical director. I wonder how much composition and arrangement he'll be doing (if any), seeing as the music staff for that show seems to be plenty as of right now.
The different in-universe composers seem to have different people doing their music too, so it'll be cool to see how the collaboration of all those people come about.

In the Japanese press release Hamauzu is credited for music while the others are music producers. That probably means Hamauzu is composing all the BGM and leads the musical vision, while the individual producers provide their style of music needed to represent the characters. Like Kanno's work on Apollon?
This season is shit at the moment.
... We're one week in...
Can we not speak doom and gloom on the season's quality just yet? I mean we have more food wars episodes to look forward to, Relife ended up being quite good, Mob Psycho & 91 days still haven't aired. Seriously, Wait until everything airs, and even then wait 2-3 weeks until saying the season is "shit". Its needless negativity (and bs) to say the season sucks based on the first episodes of a few series that aired. Don't be "that" person.
On a more positive note, I finally added in my new avatar, after some annoying setbacks with deleted drafts and constant crashing when trying to save to png. Relief!
That's along the lines of what I was guessing it'd end up being. It sure is quite the peculiar project with regards to how many people are involved on the musical front, so i'm definitely interested in seeing how it turns out. I was already sold based on the concept announced over a year ago, but with Hamauzu on board i'm definitely leaning towards being actively excited for it.
And yeah, Kanno+Apollon is a really good analogue.

Ridiculously good looking, based KyoAni. I hope we in the West get a promptly release of this as well, although I doubt we will be seeing this at all for a few months after it airs. I hope it gets licensed, that it doesn't get Hyouka'd on us.
Days - Ep. 1
I really don't get is the relationship between Jin and Tsukushi.
Jin asks this random, weakly looking guy if he wants to play soccer because... he is the main character?
Tsukushi then becomes very passionate to the point of harming him self because ... they want to tell an underdog story, I guess.
I'm usually a fan of this kind of story, but this just feels forced.

Looks like the Madogatari exhibit will be returing to Tokyo in September:
http://www.madogatari.jp
Guess I'll be checking it out
Edit:
Looks like they're showing off a new video as well?
Or maybe it's just another update to that Madoka concept movie thing

So... the new series better be good?
Wow. I'm still confused but it was so furi kuri, I liked it. Crazy series. Not sure if it's a post-Evangelion thing, but Naota was so whiny and obsessive with Harukο, at least it appears he moved on at the end of the series. Not sure if I'd call him a terrible protagonist, as that's probably the point of his existence, but I certainly hate him. It's fortunate that Mamimi also moved on with her life. Best girl with the best episode, though I liked the episode of that Ninamori girl a lot too. I actually liked the first 3 episodes much more than the later three.
So... the new series better be good?
Its looking pretty poor...2-3 shows for me, Mostly just Soma, Orange and Sweetnrss and Lightning. Though last season was no better.

I'd be up for this one. I also haven't seen it but it's on my list. I swear Code Geass was streaming like a month ago. Sucks.

Shin Mazinger Z (A.K.A Mazinger Edition Z) is on Crunchyroll, and I would be absolutely thrilled if there was a group watch of that.

Wow, so the creator goes from saying that it was all on the studio for making that shitty ending, to deleting that message and now they are saying they had involvement with making the ending.

The most important news is that Shinobu got voted as best Shaft girl

Hoping we get an update on what that new project is all about.
I blame the Kizu hype.
I thought this depended on whether Pony Canyon JP owned the international streaming/home video rights or not, similar to Aniplex. From what I've read, Aniplex USA also has to submit a bid to Aniplex JP, but these days it can't be anything more than a formality given how Aniplex JP is approaching the international market. Does Pony Canyon USA have to seriously compete with other license companies over Pony Canyon JP licenses, or is it more Pony Canyon JP ignoring other bids in an attempt to make more profit themselves? Or have I misread the relationship between Pony Canyon USA and JP entirely, with USA being more independent and competing with other companies over shows that Pony Canyon JP may or may not have the international rights to?
On an unrelated note, I don't know if anyone posted about it here, but Gkids has the theatrical (and presumably home video as well) rights to Miss Hokusai. It's a fantastic little film that's definitely worth watching, despite the occasional odd choice of music.

If the writing isn't turgid, can it even be anime?

GoT "Battle of the Bastards" episode deserved it. All of the other ones? Ohhh.

What is it with gaming sites throwing 1997 Berserk under the bus to praise new Berserk?
Maybe they just love how much it looks like a video game! I bet the early 360-PS3 era is quite nostalgic for them.

Alright, we can do these two next. A little robot goodness won't be bad after a little fantasy in Moribito. We'll start Moribito Tuesday and go from there.

That's being rather generous. The only game I've seen from that era I would compare visually with Berserk is Saints Row 2.

Not much info yet since this is just coming out at Japan Expo, but Yapiko Animation has announced Les Pirates de Réunion in collaboration with acclaimed animator Mitsuo Iso.

Oh nice. Didn't he kinda stop doing much of anything after Dennou Coil's commercial failure?

Awww do Mazinger first!
There's so much fantasy stuff out there already, let's have a good classic exciting robot action show first for a change. I'm sure it's aesthetic will attract a lot of new viewers too.
As she should be. All is right with the world.
slightly bitter about this but okay

Maybe they'll announce a new movie ;p
Kind of a strange episode since it didn't really achieve much aside from reiterating that Soma's dad is a better cook than him.
I really hope the whole 'Erina knows Soma's dad' thing gets put out in the open sooner rather than later, it's the most interesting thing about her character.

Dammit CR doesn't have the licence for this in Ireland anyway, can't speak t the rest of EU or UKwell given the odds of a season 3 are sitting at like a 1% chance of happening at best, likely a good choice
Whaat, why? There's just so many chapters available already. The anime bombed or something?

In two years such rankings about best Shaft girls get screwed by Fate characters.
