I always enjoy FnordChan's preview thread, though it was pretty cruel of you to post the better shows towards the bottom, as I was getting desperate seeing how bland the season was going to be at first.
I wonder if the Shogi itself will be the central theme to Shion no Oh or if it'll end up supplementing the mystery. I'm itching for a Hikaru no Go-esque series.

Genshiken as well (thank god that Kujibiki crap is finished)
Straight Jacket looks interesting
Kodoma no Jikan is gathering quite a lot of interest from certain boards.. afaik *cough*
I've always liked Da Capo, but Da Capo SS was very crap, but i will give the new one a go.

Definitely: Genshiken
Maybe: Moyasimon, Kimikiss, Gundam00
I'll have to check the first couple of episodes of those before i decide on whether or not i want to watch them.
Apparently Polysics are doing the ED for Moyasimon

Gurren Lagann is still airing, no one wants to attempt to even show anything manly until it is done.
next season is going to be a plethora of manly shows.
and I am sad not everyone is listing Genshiken as a must watch.

That looks awesome. I wonder if anyone will sub it, but I have a feeling it might be more awesome to watch it unsubbed.
I'll watch Genshiken. Seeing familiar characters in the sea of shit, I can't help but feel feel nice inside. I have no school girl fetish, but maybe i'll also check out KimiKiss Pure Rouge because of the director.
man I feel like nothing in anime makes me excited anymore,
Currently watching Claymore (the series just killed itself),
Darker Than Black (really great mystery but moves kinda slow, good stories though).
Gonna check out:
Straight jacket, looks cool
Gundam 00 - I know its gonna suck but I'll just watch a few episodes

Well the only obvious watch for me is Ghost Hound, somehow doubting it will be good as Lain or Kino though, but we'll see.
Will skip on Genshiken II, didn't really like where later manga is going anyway.
Clannad, ef and even slightly generic DC II are far from crap really, both Clannad and ef have nice set of characters and good atmosphere, though final explanation/ending in Clannad failed to deliver imo and ef well...they only released half of the game, too bad Shinkai isn't involved in actual anime since he made great OP for the game. Won't watch any of that though despite good production values I see in trailers (lack of time and will), but might check KimiKiss for director's name sake. Blue Drop, Mokke and Shion no Oh all look fairly interesting to check at least first episode.
As for Kodomo no Jikan, even I felt guilty a bit while reading manga, I mean it's probably the most blatant in-your-face regular lolicon thing I've read (regular as in not counting guro and semi-H stuff like Tokyo Redhood...) but again somehow I couldn't say it's utter crap due to funny bits and well... overall cuteness, there is hot big-boobed teacher in there aswell

.Kodomo no jikan is too super loli my taste besides I can't stand it , just looking at the screenshots at random curiosity already tells me it vomit inducing:

And Dennou Coil keeps up the quiet yet intriguingly fast pacing.

Fast pacing? All I know that the last episodes I watched, ep12, feels like a filler and a terrible one at that. I know it's targeted at kids, but still that episode was horrible with all the "preaching" and silliness. They have also making up all kinds of stuffs in the last few episodes that makes me feel there isn't much of a coherent world design going on anymore.

Lightning effects! Everywhere! Looking good, but I'm gonna have to wait until I start to see what shows people are focusing on before deciding what to watch. This season looks so uninteresting for now, probably this is the only thing I care about so far. Straitjacket looks good, but I doubt I'd like it. Still will check it out, tho.

So for anyone interested in Dragonaut ~The Resonance~, a blurb about ep 1 and its title has showed up on the site. My quickie translation.
Episode 1: Resonance -Hand in Hand-
Two years ago, Kamishina Jin was the miraculous sole survivor of a shuttle crash enroute to the Moon in which his father was the pilot. Ever since then, he has been the focal point for critcism and speculation. One day, Jin by chance was at the scene of several murders. Followed by the assailants, he was saved by a lone girl named Toa. As if guided by fate, these two have fallen for each other. What could this encounter mean and what could come of it?

Dragonaut Story:
In the near future, humanity is faced with unprecedented crisis. They are fighting a war against Thanatos, an entity hailing from the depths of space. It was a battle to avoid total annihiliation for humanity. There was no other means in which they could battle it and it seemed like all that was left was the path of ruin for humans. However, there was one weapon left to stand in opposition to this. It was the ISDA's (I think the long string of kanji prior to it is the full name for the ISDA) secret D-project.

There's a bit more to it but it might be a bigger spoiler. It also mentions what occurs in the first ep with Toa and Jin. Quickie translation so it might not be exact. Should give you the gist of it.

Everything sounds generic. It's pretty hard NOT to sound generic in this day and age. I mean come on, Gurren sounded generic in its descriptions when it was first announced and see how the first half turned out. =p
Best to see it first if anything it sounds remotely interesting and go from there.

Genshiken is awesome! Doubt you'll hate it. Hmm, going to keep an eye on Moyasimon, Kimikiss, and of course Genshiken. Can't wait for these to come out.

You guys made such a big deal out of Kodomo no Jikan, I had to check it out. It was really boring, nothing happened at all. The pervy stuff was only implied, so it was pretty tame too. Anyway, I hope it's not a whole series, cause the OVA was retarded. Not even pedos could like it.
i can't wait till the anime community gets to be introduced to Neuro:lol. he's basically detective Conan... if Conan was an evil asshole . this will be the sleeper hit of the fall, not only does it have an extremely twisted sense of humor, but it's being done by freaking Madhouse!

I haven't watched anime in so long because it's so uninteresting now. Everything is so hackneyed or trite that I just get tired of watching the same thing.
I was surprised to hear about a Maple Story anime. It's probably going to be terrible. It seems like a dot hack rip-off, but it might have an original story. Who knows.
