I don't know much about this, but it's based on a Tezuka manga, and it has some good names attached, so it's probably at least interesting.

Hunter x Hunter: The Last Mission
Director: Keiichiro Kawaguchi
Animation Production: Madhouse
Opening Date: 12/27
Official Site: http://www.hxh-movie.jp/index.html
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzafTryO2vQ
Presumably much better than the last anime movie to use "The Last ____" as a subtitle.

Director: Shinichiro Watanabe
Animation Production: BONES
Opening Date: 1/4
Official Site: http://www.space-dandy.com/
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoZ2udQkr3c
Watanabe is back, baby. With a huge team of talented animators and musicians working with him, expect some magic to happen. The show is airing first in America, on Toonami, so there are obviously big expectations for its reception in the west, and the budget is no doubt quite large for an anime series. This is all the anime you will need this season, might as well just stop reading now. Stop it. Stop.

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZZgn8xNdJs
The sequel to the KyoAni series which gave us the heartwarming moral lesson that "everyone on Earth is mentally ill." How will this series top itself with contrived and childish drama this time? Don't know and don't really care because I won't be watching.

Official Site: http://www.d-fragments.net/

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZZHTHUWcL0
A dark comedy about the King of Hell's Aide and his attempts to mediate conflicts. Looks interesting visually, but of course the main test of comedy is how funny the jokes are.
