Can I just reiterate how many damn shows are scheduled to air in 3/4 weeks from now!!!!!! This is insane...
With that being said, I'm putting together a " Spring Anime Preview Thread" for the OT section as has been asked of me/us in the in the individual OT threads a lot over the past year. I started doing some of it, but it is collectively a LOT of work and I need to do my license renewal education/testing the rest of the week; ya know, that thing I call my career is kind of important and Friday is my renewal date, lol... I'm hoping to finish in the next couple days, but... I could use a hand, pretty please?
It's actually, really easy work, but can you guys help fill in the
information like listed below for the shows without information below and PM me with it I'll stick with just 25 shows for now, but I could use a hand just organizing the information..... We can also pass the show and descriptions to BGBW so he can begin organizing the Spring OT at the same time... Pretty please?
Here is what I have so far :

That man is Dazai Osamu, and he and his partner Kunikida are members of a very special detective agency. They have supernatural powers and deal with cases that are too dangerous for the police or the military. They're tracking down a tiger that has appeared in the area recently, around the time Atsushi came to the area. The tiger seems to have a connection to Atsushi, and by the time the case is solved, it is clear that Atsushi's future will involve much more of Dazai and the rest of the detectives!

As the world is in the middle of an industrial revolution, a monster appears that cannot be defeated unless its heart, which is protected by a layer of iron, is pierced. By infecting humans with its bite, the monster can create aggressive and undead creatures known as Kabane. On the island Hinomoto, located in the far east, people have built stations to shelter themselves from these creatures. People access the station, as well as transport wares between them, with the help of a locomotive running on steam, called Hayajiro. Ikoma, a boy who lives in the Aragane station and helps to build Hayajiro, creates his own weapon called Tsuranukizutsu in order to defeat the creatures. One day, as he waits for an opportunity to use his weapon, he meets a girl named Mumei, who is excused from the mandatory Kabane inspection. During the night, Ikuma meets Mumei again as he sees Hayajiro going out of control. The staff on the locomotive has turned into the creatures. The station, now under attack by Kabane, is the opportunity Ikoma has been looking for.
