「トツニュウ × シテ × シンニュウ」 (Kougeki x to x Sekeiru)
“Charge × And × Invade”
After 111 episodes of brilliance – and a preview full of spoilers – Hunter X Hunter can still utterly surprise me. That’s brilliant writing and direction, plain and simple.

「風間一派だ！」 (Kazama Ippada!)
“Kazama’s Party!”
D-Frag is a zany boke & tsukkomi comedy about one guy surrounded by a lot of crazy girls. Crazy guys too. Pretty much everyone is nuts but the one guy, and so far it’s funny!

「旅立ちの島 」 (Tabidachi no Shima)
“Island of New Journeys”
There’s a lot of potential here with this series.

「ハナノウタ 3」 (Hana no Uta 3)
“Song of Flowers 3”
Hana no Uta is nowhere near greatness (you’d still need a consistently strong narrative for that) but it’s a damn good bit of fun, and a great example of how strong execution is able to make up for where a series falls short.

「星」 (Hoshi)
“The Star”
The sacrifice. The king. The brains. One to lead, one to plan, and one to inspire it all. When east meets west, who will triumph in the end?

「流れ流されて生きるじゃんよ」 (Nagare nagasarete ikiru jan yo)
“Live With the Flow, Baby”
So – is anime saved? For now, the jury is out and the bag is mixed.

「上京」 (Joukyou)
“To Tokyo”
Welcome back to the world of Saki, where the girls are cute, the mahjong is crazy, and pantsu are nowhere to be found.

「家猫と野良神と尻尾」 (Ieneko to Noragami to Shippo)
“A Housecat, a Stray God, and a Tail”
For only 5¥, what would you wish for?

「出会い」 (Deai)
“Encounter”
Christmas is here bright and early for mecha fans this year. Or wait. Is it late? Either way, here were are with another Sunrise original mecha series.
