「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?
Space Dandy – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「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.
Saki: Zenkoku-hen – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「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.
Noragami – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「家猫と野良神と尻尾」 (Ieneko to Noragami to Shippo)

 |
 |
 |
 |
 |

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.
Witch Craft Works – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「多華宮君と炎の魔女」 (Takamiya-kun to Honou no Majo)
“Takamiya-kun and the Witch of Fire”
Welcome to a war between witches. The prize? A “princess” who is just as confused as we are!
Tonari no Seki-kun – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「ドミノ」 (Domino)
“Domino”
With only 10 minutes to tell its story, Tonari no Seki-kun did a great job at capturing the essence of what made the manga such a joy to read.
Seitokai Yakuindomo* – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「また桜の樹の下で/ねむねむの季節ポロッ/スルメとタカトシまっぱ! その1/ねこをかぶったオオカミ」
(Mata Sakura no Ki no Shitade / Nemunemu no Kisetsu Poro / Surume to Takatoshi Mappa! So no Ichi / Neko wo Kabutta Ookami)
“Under the Sakura Tree Again / Sleepy Season Porro / Dried Squid and Takatoshi Naked! Part 1 / A Cat in Wolf’s Clothing”
Bringing back everything that made it such a hit during its first run and utilizing the nostalgia card to its fullest potential, GoHands and its 3D team did a fantastic job with this first episode of Seitokai Yakuindomo*.
Saikin, Imouto no Yousu ga Chotto Okashiinda ga. – 01
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
「美月SOS」 (Mitsuki Esuouesu)
“Mitsuki SOS”
Awkward censorship, weird pacing, few explanations, and barely a peep from the main character until 10+ minutes into the episode. If this is how this series intends to continue, it’s not making a great case for itself.

| Not covering |
It’s time to put away the tinsel and shrug off those New Years hangovers, because the new season of anime is just about to start. This is Random Curiosity’s Winter 2014 blogging schedule.
As always, this is a tentative overview of our plans for the new season. We’ll also be doing introductory posts on many of the shows we’re not covering, so if something catches our eyes, things will be shifted around to accommodate. The schedule will be updated to reflect any changes.
