I'm still working on my want-to-watch list for the summer. I do know for sure that I want to watch Cowboy Bebop this summer, because it's another one of those classics that I haven't seen yet, even though someone gave me a copy for Christmas. I feel like just getting through the stuff I'm in the middle of will probably take up a good part of the summer, anyway.

[U]So far, I am LOVING birdy- i just wish i could cosplay her without being seen as a whore. :forehead:

As long as you were in the convention center, you could totally do it and not be seen as a loose woman at all- it's anime, after all, and the most bad-a** girls also tend to be somewhat fanservice-y.

[AnimeGirl]

Let's see, what anime do I plan to watch this summer??

Summer Wars
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood [Part 3]
STEINS;GATE
Ramen Fighter Miki
Tegami Bachi

[Mr. Hat'n'Clogs]

Five episodes into Madoka I've decided I need to order Hidamari Sketch so I don't feel bad anymore.

[R86]

Might Possibly Get To
Hungry Heart Wild Striker

If I may, I would humbly recommend Aoki Densetsu Shoot! before Hungry Heart Wild Striker, and Giant Killing before either of them. That is, since by looking at your MAL materials I see you're into sports anime too. I have seen all three in their entirety.

One Outs

Definitely an interesting show and not your typical baseball anime. I would put it in an altogether different category from Oofuri, Major, or Moshidora, which would be the order in which I'd recommend those (I see you already have Cross Game covered).

Also, I so enjoyed reading all your brief comments in the last column of your anime list, that I think I will have to do the same thing on my own list.

[Narnian]

Oh, wow. I'm sure this list will be fairly long.

Anime to Finish:
Gurren Laggan
Soul Eater
Bubblegum Crisis
Slayers (first season)
Kimi ni Todoke
Lucky Star
K-On!! (as well as start reading the new manga)
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Original and 2009)
Magic Knight Rayearth
Mushishi

Anime to Watch but not Necessarily Finish:
Hetalia
Pandora Hearts
Gosick
One Piece (tentatively)
Steam Detective (as part of a deal)
Maybe a few others on my on-hold list

I also have a bunch of anime on my planned list that I want to start if possible. I'm not going to list them here, just because it's too long. Check my MAL if you're interested. Summer is one of the few times I can catch up on anime without having to worry about school.

[TheSubtleDoctor]

If I may, I would humbly recommend Aoki Densetsu Shoot! before Hungry Heart Wild Striker, and Giant Killing before either of them. That is, since by looking at your MAL materials I see you're into sports anime too. I have seen all three in their entirety.

Oh, thanks for the advice. I think I'll take you up on that, since you're also a sports anime guy. It's a pity that you don't think either of them measure up to GK because I have already seen that.

Also, I so enjoyed reading all your brief comments in the last column of your anime list, that I think I will have to do the same thing on my own list.

Heh heh, I'm glad you enjoyed that. Don't thank me, though]Wild Arms Hero[/URL].

[TWWK]

I don't get summer breaks anymore.

But I plan on watching one or two of the new anime premiering in Japan and finishing Aishiteruze Baby (almost done), Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Witch Hunter Robin, and The World God Only Knows (first season). I might also dig into Ride Back or Chrono Crusade, or give Bakemonogatari (dropped after half of one episode) another shot.

[Juliannesan]

So far this summer I watched Kobato! and I laughed and cried, it was beautiful!

I'm currently watching this one, which is interesting, Hakushaku To Yousei.
I kinda like it though. We'll see how it ends.

I also watched His and Her Circumstances, and I know I'm gonna get flack for this, but...
I didn't really enjoy it that much. It was somewhat confusing to me with all the different artistic angles, and the story moved by so slooooowly, and it definitely did not have a conclusive ending. And WAY too many filler episodes too. So yeah, I didn't like it.

As for plans for watching things this summer. I only have a few.

Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood: Part 5.
GunXSword [which I've watched a few of already]
5 Centimeters Per Second


and that's about it. I'm not sure if I'll have time to watch anything else.

[Atria35]

Actually, I can get that. The anime and manga are completely different. After the 6th volume of the manga, things get dark and dramatic, while I think they stayed happy and carefree with the anime.

Well, the way it was going it looked like it was going to stay the same pace too. So I'm not sorry they ended it, I wish they had made it differently ENTIRELY. Haha. I mean, the drawing of the characters were pretty flat. That's my opinion though. I think it could have been WAYY better if they had thought out the storyline before actually making it into an anime.
I mean, for example I LOVED Itazura na Kiss! Which was similar in some ways, but the storyline was great! But yeah, Kare Kano was lacking in a lot of ways.

[Yoshi]

I don't get summer breaks anymore.

But I plan on watching one or two of the new anime premiering in Japan and finishing Aishiteruze Baby (almost done)

Isn't Aishiteruze Baby a Shoujo, aimed at females? There are so many better things you could be watching, ha ha!

Well, who am I to judge; Usagi Drop looks like it might be interesting, even though it's Josei and has a fitting art style!

Yoshi
