Winter 09 Series

So~ Now that i've finally and finished reviewing (if you could call it that) the completed anime from the previous season. I can venture forth into the Winter Anime Series!
Of course i'll only be mentioning the ones that i've got an eye on.

Druaga no To - the Sword of Uruk
As some might know, this is th sequel to Aegis of Uruk that was shown last year. And we're following off from there quite nicely with only a passing of half a year.
We see that the "left-behind" party is living life out normally, with the exception of Jil who appears to be deep in sorrow and despair.
We also get introduced to a some new characters. Kai/Ki who appears to be Prietess Ishtar and the Queen Gilgamesh. Or It might've been Ishtar herself, and a druid who just got dragged along into the party xD We also see the face of Utu! Either way, with Kai/Ki, Jil and party now have a means to climb to the tower above the shrine and find out the truth, ad Jil is determined to find it. (Even with Fatina bonding well with him now.)
Anyways, i am interested in seeing how this goes. I'm up for a serious plot development or it being riddled of RPG paradoies and what not ^_^

Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo
Also known as 'The Girl who Leapt through Space'. I honestly wasn't following this anime orignally, however, with two distinct polar-based opinions of this series, i decided to check out how bad it was. Unfortunately, its turned out to be slightly interesting so far.

The time frame is somewhere in futuristic space. Colonies with lil androids that serve and befriend us. They're at their peak of peacefulness and happiness. This is evident with things having be censored, e.g. Anti-partical cannons, brain colonies etc...
either way, we have our girl meeting by accident the Brain Colony, which is named Leopoard (same voice as Lelouch, i'm finding it rather amusing the all cunning serious Britanian Zero is now doing this kind of role)
Anyways, we haven't gotten to the real plot of the series yet, however, it seems that Leopard is doing some sort of show, and there seems to be this other group of people across some sort of vast distance are also involved. I'm interested to see how this will all play out.

White Album
Another idol romance anime. I don't know why i picked this up. this at least seems better than I''s Pure. I might be seeing how much of a tragic fail this series might be.

Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger
YAY! Another Ippo anime! This follows directly after the previous anime, we start with Miyata's OPBF title challenge, and the rest should be Ippo's defense as champion and what not. However, with these new CGs and, the characters seem a tad out of place, or maybe i'm just use to old style animation.

Asu no Yoichi
Harem! xD Though at least the main guy doesn't seem to be as useless at first. He's been train and bred in the mountains all his life in the life of a samurai. However, he already exceeds his father so he his father orders him to learn in the city. He'll be freeloading at another dojo that has the same style. And they all happen to be girls.
Oh well, comedy romance harem with action i guess.

Chrome Shelled Regios
Set in some dusty-sandy desert world, people live in move-able domes. And there will be inter-dome wars/fight that i believe seek to obtain resources or something.
Anyways, it seems we'll be following platoon 17, with our main character Layfon. Who transferred into this dome to start a new life as he was brought up in the Military Arts. Platoon 17 also consist of Felli, the psychokinetic ability girl. Sharnid their sharpshooter (he reminds me of Weber from FMP), Harley the Dite-mechanic (Dite are the weapons they use. Pretty nifty in their ability to be compact and restore to full form) with Nina the head of the platoon.
anyways, i'm interseted to see where this will lead me. A combo of comedy and action and some plot going on ^_^ And there could be a love triangle but *shrug*

RideBack
Motorbikes with arms that can transform into two legged vehicles? COOL!!! enough for me xD Intersetingly enough also is that the heroine is a girl who had done ballet all her life, and she's using her agility, grace and flexibility from ballet to use these RideBacks. Not your typical mecha show.

Munto TV AKA Sora o Miageru Shoujo no Hitomi no Utsuru Sekai
Normal girl gets involved in the World of the Heavens. She alone holds the power to save both the two worlds. Now i get lazy in describing, but this gives me a feel of escaflowne in the beginning. But this is one type i havent seen for a while i hope i'm in for a good ride ^_^
ANN Summary
I'm a bit sad its only registered for 13 eps though.

KuroKami
I've been following the manga for this and quite enjoy it. However, the anime has changed a few things. E.g. from Keita being the guy who is a programmer to a HS guy. This annoys me. No one has subbed it yet or released an ep of it yet xD
KuroKami or BlackGod involves our world and the existance of Dopplegangers along with Triple-liners. Its fairly interesting. Action ^_^ Comedy ^_^ i hope the anime will be as good as the manga despite all the changes, but i can't help but feel Keita will be more useless and pathetic *sigh*
