2008 Spring Season’s anime look to be really promising! Here’s what stood out,
Kure-nai
Features the best dialogue with a cast of interesting characters and engaging story. The art style and animations are both very pleasing as well.
Soul Eater
Shonen, but it has style. The moon and the sun are…peculiar, at the very least (not to mention the other structures). And not to mention its three main male characters’s “outstanding” traits.
Kyouran Kazoku Nikki (Frenzied Family Journal)
Let’s see…in the family, there’s a normal father who can do mental math and point a gun at one of his child, and a catgirl mother who makes her children lick her shoes. The children include a loli, a lion, a jelly fish, a biological weapon, and a possible homosexual. Not to mention all of them names end in -ka….(ie. Hyouka, Ouka, etc). This is all from the first episodes. So yeah, it’s a crazy family. It’ll left you completely drained of energy after watching it.
Library Wars
Military setting with a classic love-hate relationship between the two main characters.
Allison to Lillia
One of the normalest anime in this season. Still fun to watch.
Junjou Romantica
It wouldn’t have stood out to me if it wasn’t BL. The characters wasted no time to…do their BL stuff… (maybe it’ll turn out to be a good romance story…)
Amatsuki
Fushigi Yuugi-esque plot – modern characters transferred to a historical setting (Edo Japan). But it is different.
Vampire Knight
Full of bishies. Yuuki is getting on my nerves, being simply a classic “damsel in distress”. Opening and Ending have pretty good songs.
