While I did state that I most probably will not be blogging this season. Here are my picks that I will watch at least one episode of during the next season of anime in Japan. My problem basically was there was nothing that really interested me, although I hear there are some good series next season. Thanks to Moetron for the list of animes that they put up, which helped me make my selection. I was hoping to do this list a bit nicer but it didn’t come out the way I had hoped.
Chocolate Underground
http://www.choco-bar.jp/
12 June 2008
13 Episodes
I have already watched an episode or so and I must admit, it is hillariously creepy. With the first scene portraying a very over reactive government, using every sort of weapon and tool (Including robots) to stop people having chocolate. Another creepy thing is the runner of the government who appears on billboards and dances to a tune of NO CHOCOLATE. Creepy.
Telepathy Shoujo Ran

I have been meaning to watch this for awhile now. However never gotten around to doing it just yet. Looks rather interesting through so I hope it is an anime that will be able to keep me interested for more than a few episodes.
Mahō Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto: Natsu no Sora
http://www.sora-mahou.com/
2nd July 2008

I had never heard of this series before. Looks different from what I usually watch but there is no harm in trying.

I must admit, I have never really been able to get into the series much, I usually watch a few episodes then forget about it. Is this time any different? Maybe… only time will tell since it isn’t a bad series.
Strike Witches

3rd July 2008

From the previews, it looks rather interesting. Might be a good pick for me.

Akiba-chan

The only reason why I am interested in watching this, is that I did something similar to this a few years back at school (1000x less advanced) but still it interests me how it has been done.

The first episode was rather interesting, so hopefully this episode can improve on it.
Mahou Sensei Negima! ~Shiroki Tsubasa Ala Alba~

3 Episodes
Good to see that there is another OVA out which is actually based around the manga. Lets hope they get the 100,000 preorders for a new Negima Series!
hope to see you review these anime fast *likes your blog* (awesome)
If you happen to check the other series, they are sequels of the first season. I guess we need to cross out those in our watch list.
Why don’t you try reviewing Mahō Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto: Natsu no Sora? The animation is pretty awesome. It is similar in a way to the famous 5 Centimeters Per Second.
