Winter 2011 Season Preview

So the final TV anime season of 2010 is beginning to come to a close, which means we’re all looking forward to what’s ahead next year. Have a look at what we here at Borderline Hikikomori are (and aren’t) looking forward to for the coming winter season.

Based on these early looks, it looks like we have high expectations for the Noitamina shows – Fractale and Wandering Son. They are following up some amazing shows from this year in that time slot, after all, including my personal pick of 2010, The Tatami Galaxy. We’ve also caught on to the hype for Shaft’s original work Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica, as well as Gosick and Freezing which were adapted from a light novel series and a manga series respectively. For those who liked the first series, there are also sequels Kimi ni Todoke and Mitsudomoe to look forward to.

Kimi ni Todoke–Caught up to 10

Finally caught back up on this show. Someone tell me, why does it move so darn slow? I think if it turns out to be 52 episodes, I’m going to cry.

Here comes trouble...

Kimi ni Todoke episode 4+5

Episode 4 and 5 of Kimi Ni Todoke are interesting in that the events that occur in four, and some that carry over into five are so painful to watch that you want to hate the show. The misunderstandings that take place, and the isolation Sawako pushes herself into hurt.

 

Kimi ni Todoke episode 3

Cute opening picture is cute.

I think the only show that makes me fangirl squee more then this is Glee. (I love Glee. Shut up.)

Kimi ni Todokoe episode 2

I think this show is easily more cute then Koboto.

 

Kimi ni Todoke episode 1

            I was worried that I was burned out on anime watching when I had downloaded plenty of fall season anime and watched none of this. Then this popped up, I download and watched this asap.

This does not mean what one might hope...
