Fall 2008 Preview
Another season, another clear slate to fill up with anime. My original plan was to do my usual lazy impression post, but after coming up with things to say for a large mass of the new shows coming out, I’ve decided to do a season preview for only the second time since last fall. There’s a LOT of new shows coming out this season, but having reached the point where I cannot cover 7-9 shows a week anymore, I’m going to have to play the pick and choose game this time around. Anyways, let’s get on to it!

Summary: Takasu Ryuji has a gentle personality, but because of the frightening eyes that he inherited from his father, he comes off as intimidating to most people. Aisaka Taiga has a bad reputation as the most dangerous girl at school. When these two meet through certain circumstances, they discover that they both have crushes on each other’s friends. Further more, Taiga lives next door to Ryuji! The two begin to help each other find love, but this makes rumors generate throughout the school…
Impression: So I heard everyone is going to watching this. I guess I’m an everyone. I’ve absolutely loved what I’ve read in the manga that this will be adapted from, and I have very high hopes from J.C. Staff’s production and the strong voice cast. This is the type of love comedy I like. Not excessive in fanservice, extremely funny, and involving a great romance story that can actually be related to real life situations. If you’re a tiger, then I’ll be a dragon! Read more
