Hey guys, I'd like to give a big caution to anime viewers that are thinking about watching Devil Hunter Yohko. This has a pretty good amount of nudity and could almost be classified as a hentai. Just giving a heads up.

@Jesse Shakugan no Shana 3 (of course)<---don't watch latest trailer if you have not read light novel, huuuugggeee spoiler.
-Horizon in the middle of nowhere (trailer looks weird, but potentually fascinating concept)
-C3 (the trailer has people that look like they belong in a nuthouse. Instant sell)
-Mirai Nikki (that 'OVA' was weird, weird is good.)
-Ika Musume 2 (First season was funny)<---not seen S1
I would like to add:
-Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai (looks like a good/descent harem anime on the trailer atleast)
-Guilty crown(weird trilar, looks convinvincing, lots of violence+comes out tmorrow :D )
Made me check on Horizon in the middle of nowhere trailer, looks awesomely trippy=ftw w000t.
c3=again made me chk the trailer, looks nice.
I only needed the nice looking girl with the axe on her back to wait impasiently for the Mirai Nikki, :) . Epic trailer though :>. 0:46 minute of the trailer made me lol irl, ppl burning and those 2 kissing.

@Runman292:
Angel Beats isn't a musical lol, the music is never the focus. Its got a few concert scene's (3 in total) in it, but those are less about playing the music and more about either their significance to the plot or their used as a diversion and to cover up the sound of gunfights and explosions. Don't be fooled by the name, 'Beats' is far more significant to the plot than a mere musical reference.
Based on what you said about your genre preferences on the last page you would probably really like it, since it IS primarily an Action/Comedy and DOES have romance elements later on (although they do start early). The drama can get pretty heavy at times, but the comedy is always there to break it up not long after.
I give it 10/10. (sorry, had to do it. But its true though)

@Sjwn94: Ill also be adding 'Boku Ha Tomodachi Ga Sukunai' to that list. I hear its pretty popular in Japan and my favorite sub group(Mazui)is doing it. They released the short episode 0 OVA the other day, which was funny in a disgusting sorta way (it ends with two girls throwing up all over the main character :P ). Plus, one of the characters is heterochromic, I dont need any other reason.
Had a look at the trailers for the shows you mentioned since i haven't seen them yet (I tend to work off the summary charts rather than trailers) and I think ill watch Guilty Crown as well. Might give Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai a miss though, didn't find the trailer very appealing.

^:o For some reason the Beats thing always eluded me but now that you mentioned it. I started thinking about it and i think i got it now,which makes this awesome show even more awesome.
Spoiler!!@#@#!@#!@# to confirm my theory to Jesse:
heart reference<----am i right?


SPOILER UP DERE DON'T READ or you'll ruin the awesomeness of the show, or atleast you'll ruin the surprise since even knowing this wouldn't make angel beats ruinable :P !@#!@#!@#!@#
On other news I, for one of those weird reasons, ended up watching short parts of Nichijou and it seems hilarious, so I ask you is it really that good? All those random events made the short scenes I've seen untill now ftw.

Yeah, that's correct. It deceives you the whole time into thinking its a music reference and then it reveals that it was a reference to the heart right at the end. You'll also notice that the line under the title and the one that appear on the eyecatch (the thing that appears in the middle of the episode were it does that one piano note) is the same as the lines that appear on heartbeat monitors.

I didn't watch it with subs. I got tired of waiting so I just downloaded a raw and did my best to translate it. Its pretty easy to follow whats going on if you cant understand it, so long as you pick up on the keywords.
