A quick refresher, for those who missed the earlier discussion about Natsuyuki Rendevous:
The romantic drama tells the story of a love triangle between Hazuki, a young man who works part time at a flower store, Rokka, the widow who owns the store, and the ghost of Shimao, Rokka's deceased husband. Hazuki will be voiced by Yūichi Nakamura, Rokka will be played by Sayaka Ohara, and Shimao will be played by Jun Fukuyama.

So:

Character Design/Chief Animation Supervisor - Junichirou Taniguchi (chief animation on Madoka)
Animation Production - Dougakoubou (not exactly the world's greatest anime studio, but hey...)

Cast:

Yuichi Nakamura as Hazuki
Sayaka Ohara as Rokka
Jun Fukuyama as Shimao

Studio doesn't matter. It's fucking KOU MATSUO.

That wasn't on the website! Was it on the stream?

Okay, HYPE GET.

(for people who aren't staff whores - Kou Matsuo is an awesome director. He's very good at directing anime to be very naturalistic even in heightened circumstances - see Kurenai or Red Garden for this - and he also directed the whole Rozen Maiden franchise.)

Goddammit - I thought noitamina was back. I guess spring and summer are only a temporary phrase :(

Depends on what the other show is. There have always been sci-fi and action shows in noitaminA.

Also, to be fair, no-one really knows what Robotics;Notes will be like, as the game isn't actually out yet. Although it's safe to assume it may have stupid otaku stuff in it, maybe it won't be that bad!

I thought Chaos;Head was drivel and couldn't make it past the second episode of Steins;Gate. Prove me wrong, 5pb!

Too late. Newtamina is our future. :(

You're a bad person as far as Steins;Gate goes. I can give you a pass on the former since they didn't really do Chaos;Head justice at all.

the steins;gate anime owns if you stick with it. you should give it another try as it takes a little while before it gets really good.

It was too harem-y! All the female characters (except the main one) had stupid moe mannerisms! Okarin annoyed the SHIT out of me!

I know I'd love the plot if I could get past how much the characters irritated me :(

So yeah, if you're just now tuning in and want to make sense of what's going on:

Summer noitaminA: Moyashimon Returns and Natsuyuki Rendevous
Fall noitaminA: Robotics;Notes (visual novel adaptation) and Psycho-Pass (no one has any idea what this is)

Guilty Crown/Black Rock Shooter TV -> Kids on the Slope/Tsuritama -> Moyashimon Returns/Natsuyuki Rendezvous -> Robotics;Notes/Psycho-Pass

Looks like this year's noitaminA line-up is 50% fresh.

To be honest, I don't really understand the hype for Robotics Note.

I liked Steins;Gate an awful lot.

Considering that Chaos;Head was apparently shit, Robotics;Notes being good is no sure thing, but I'm very hopeful.

The one thing this conference definitely accomplished, though, is getting me incredibly hyped for Apollon. The musical performances were sublime. I look forward to seeing how Watanabe uses that soundtrack.

I like Tsuritama's art style, but I still have no idea if it'll be any good.
