Gundam - Reconguista in G is Tomino's new project. They didn't say exactly that it's a TV series, but it probably is. It'll start in Fall 2014. The character designer is Kenichi Yoshida, who worked on Gainer with Tomino, and later on Eureka 7. It's a sequel to Universal Century, set in the next calendar system - リギルド・センチュリー (Rigild Century?). Yuugo Kanno is composing the music.

Gundam the Origin is a 4 part theatrical event project similar to how Gundam Unicorn was released. The first part is "The Blue-eyed Casval", and will open in Spring 2015. The story for the animated Origin is going to follow the story of Char and his sister Artesia, so it's probably only covering one portion of the Origin manga instead of being a full remake of 0079.

G-Reco has really interesting staff revealed on the trailer.
Chief Director: Yoshiyuki Tomino
Character Design: Kenichi Yoshida
Mecha Design: Akira Yasuda, Ippei Gyobu, Kimitoshi Yamane
Design Works: Shigeto Koyama, Kinu Nishimura, Gouda Cheese (Bengus), Pablo Uchida, Takumi Sakura, Ayumi Kurashima
Color Design: Nobuko Mizuta
Art Design: Tomoaki Okada
Music: Yugo Kanno
What's interesting to me is that there's a really nice variation in the designers. Koyama and Kurashima are both designers who have worked extensively with BONES, Nishimura and Bengus are oldschool Capcom dudes, and I think Pablo Uchida is a freelance web artist of some sort? The color designer and art designer both work with BONES a lot too. It's nice to see Tomino work with a wild range of talent.

Also Akuma no Riddle OP's MV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKyIXi48g1c 2lazy to look up the title.

Hyped for this, I loved Star Driver.

PUT IT IN MY VEINS! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Lol at the Origins CG.
NOT EVEN THIS CAN STOP THIS TRAIN.
Also yeah the trailer did have a very BONES feel to it, especially in the colour design which is part of why I loved it.
Huh, looking up Nobuko Mizuta, I didn't know he did the color design for Totoro. Maybe Michiyo Yasuda was too busy with Grave of the Fireflies back then.

Key problem with the anime is its an adaptation of a survival game manga series that is only now finally entering its final arc, so one essentially is guaranteed a lackluster unsatisfying ending with no hope for a sequel anime.

Liking what I'm seeing so far out of all of this. Going to be cautiously optimistic.

Nagisa's voice is perfect! But Ryouma is too perfect for anime, all his moments in the pv!
Summer season is off to an excellent start.

Wonder if Amazon is going to do another controller prototype that looks like this. That's about the only way it could be worse.

Graduation episodes, in any context, will never not be an emotional affair. Not strictly a clip show, but assembling a photo album has a very similar feel to it. Sakura and Otome's performance of "Original Star" was a great way to cap the episode, and pave the way for the new students to take the stage... if they ever do. Ichigo's still the protagonist and she has, without a doubt, graduated. I'm not really sure where the series is going to go from here, but it already has a second OP/ED announced and a movie coming in December, so it's got to keep running for some time.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Only one that looks okay is the one guy when he crossdresses.

Bisky is Gon's mother ? That's what I took from that line about attachment.
Engaged to the Unidentified 11
All the little idiosyncrasies were on full display. Mashiro's constant meetings with Nessie, and her love of aliens despite being a wolf creature herself. Who let Benio volunteer at a kindergarten? That sounds like it can only lead to trouble. Figures we'd be getting some sort of minor relationship drama to shake things up before the finale, but for the most part, it was an enjoyable episode, and the winter scenery was beautiful.

That was a quick confirmation. Funimation has the home video rights to Ben-To and will be releasing the series later this summer.

I doubt it. I'm not totally sure but Gon's mother is probably dead
As for Ging (huge spoiler):
Gon will meet him but only after the Chimera Ant Arc

At least it's better than it used to be. They used to IP block everybody from outside of NA from even accessing the page.
Ahhh okay. Thought they were strongly implying it. Even that line
about not being interested in men who already have kids seemed like an inside joke to me.
I'm too afraid to look at that Ging spoiler.
http://polyphonicar2010.blog51.fc2.com/blog-entry-17171.html
If I'm reading this correctly, on the LN page for Fujimi Shobo, there's a message under the series Saenai Kanojo no Sodatekata that claims it's getting an anime adaptation on noitaminA in January next year.

edit: lol, and of course it's mysteriously vanished by now, but the picture proof is still at the article link. There's also a saenai.tv domain that was registered recently.
Ahhh okay. Though they were strongly implying it. Evan that lineabout not being interested in men who already have kids seemed like an inside joke to me.

I actually never even considered that. But yeah, it's extremely unlikely.
As for that Ging stuff, don't worry about it.
And more Kiniro Mosaic has just been greenlit.

Chuu2 Ren 9-10
When Shichimiya’s character was initially introduced, it seemed likely that she was there just to create tension between Utah and Rikka. What was interesting, was that she was initially presented with greater emotional intelligence and self awareness than anyone else in the cast, in that she seemed aware of the repercussions of her presence and behaviour. Perhaps expecting that to maintain was wishful thinking on my part but given that, it was acceptable that she be used as a catalyst for progress in Utah and Rikka’s relationship. Fast forward to this pair of episodes, where we see Shichimiya stripped of all that and reduced to a sobbing girly, unable to resist the charm of heroic-caregiver/lover-to-the-mentally-ill Utah. In fairness, the development isn’t out of left field, and is shown to be a re-surfacing of past feelings, rather than a sudden attack from cupid’s arrow. Does that make it anymore interesting though, or just more predictable? Other than reliance on the formulaic, with the hope that “like those other shows but Chuunibyou’d” would be enough to carry the show, I really don’t understand the insistence on squandering every unique opportunity the show had. There’s a strong lack of direction that’s pervaded this entire season. From what I’ve seen, even people who typically enjoy the show weren’t thrilled with the most recent turn of events, so what purpose it serves I don’t know. Let’s introduce a new character, waste her potential and then stomp on her heart for some drama? Alright, sadists.
Then we have Rikka interpreting Utah’s belief in her as encouragement of her delusions, and deciding to renew her faith in the Dark Lord nonsense. Are they trying to position this as her succeeding in being true to herself and her interests while maintaining a romantic relationship, rather than accepting the either/or scenario as presented by Shichimiya? As if “my romantic feelings are making it difficult for me to pretend I’m magic” was a reasonable concern in the first place. That’s what I got from the parts I managed to pay attention to, and again, barely anything has changed.
Toka’s short conversation with Utah at the beach inadvertently encapsulated one of the show’s greatest issues. She expresses both disappointment and relief over the state of his and Rikka’s relationship, and questions his satisfaction with the lack of meaningful progress; a perspective which mirrors my own as a viewer. Given that her relief presumably stems from the fact her little sister is safe, with friends and nothing terrible has happened, where does the leave me, with my lack of familial ties to the events? With just the disappointment.
There’s still 3 episodes remaining, but Rikka could toss her eyepatch and fuck Utah stupid and it wouldn’t save a season that's comfortably limboing under the already low bar set by the first. It would be a start though.
Yuyushiki 10-11
Yuyushiki saves the day. Sort of. This show is fun and pretty comforting as usual. As weird as it is, I find it to be a pretty relatable portrayal of screwing around with friends at school. I even used to do random whiteboard art, though never with wrestling props. It's perhaps a heightened reality in that respect, with a yuri bent to it. That said, I think ignoring the majority of the new cast members that they did a good job introducing was a bit of a mistake. Aikawa shows up briefly in 11, and Mum-sensei in 10, but I think including more people only improves the show in general. I like how Mum manages to feel like an adult, but still contributes to the fun. Again, it's relatable, and reminds me of teachers that put up with/encouraged the stupid ideas me and my friends had in school, instead of being wet blankets constantly.
The production of both these episodes was great. It varied for a couple of episodes there, but it's back on track now. The amount of interesting camera angles they fit in without many set changes is really fun to watch.
Oh shit there's only 1 episode left. I thought there were 2. No ;_;

As usual, while I'm not typically a Gundam series person, I'll probably keep an eye on this since it's been so long in the making.
This is the best thing to hear.
I'm not getting my hopes up until they announce it's an actual second season, not just an OVA or something.
Getting too much deja vu from the Yuruyuri announcement =/

This is actually why I'm going to Japan. I've been invited to act as a consultant for all the British aspects of the show after they saw those images I made about the show. They also liked the fact that I make stuff up a lot.
I do like how Mashiro is a reflection of the audience's negative reaction towards Benio.
At least, that's how I choose to see it.
Nagi no Asukara 24
The Ofunehiki got us into this mess, and it's going to be what gets us out. So many love confessions flying around, regardless of age differences. Some cute, some heartbreaking, but this house of cards is going to have to topple in some direction eventually. One thing I like about the scenery is how lived-in it looks. That scene of everyone gathering at the dock showed as much.

No. Bisky got mother feeligns after spending too much time with gon & kilua .. She got intrested in ging because she knew him from reputation alone and what his son was .. but in the end she isn't intrested in a man who already has a kid no matter what. No need to go deeper than that
