Puella Magi Madoka Magica. After seeing the first three episodes... I'm not 100% sure if I'm liking it
It didn't float my boat either, and I've only watched ten minutes of the first episode.  People say give it a chance, but it doesn't seem to show any sign of change.  I'll probably finish watching it eventually.

Seems to be a much more grim side to the magical girl genre.
Oh, the title got me too.  It's really comprised of a psychological thriller.

And?  That isn't awesome?

I loved that series as a whole, especially by episode 10.

I tried to watch both Yugioh 5D's and GX at the same time. I probably shouldn't have done that. :P

Since it's much more interesting, I'm just going to watch 5D's first.

Nooo...!! Watch the dark, edgy, mind screwy GX first! D: <

But seriously, you may wanna watch GX first. The guys at TV Tokyo gave more effort to the art in 5D's, you might lose interest when you jump to GX. Also, Judai turns evil.

Just watched the Toaru Majutsu no Index series and the ef - A Tale of... series. 

Something tells me I should have watched the Index series first then Railgun. 

And I just have to say that episodes 10 through 12 of ef - A Tale of Melodies made me cry like a little kid.  After having the past Yuuko had then being killed the was she was is heart-wrenching at the very least.

About to watch Burst Angel and currently watching A Channel and Steins Gate as they air.

I finished Madoka after. It was gut-wrenching stuff... but that ending. How noble. ;-;

Clearly not a series I expected to turn out to be. Depressing, but overall quite good.

Not much besides the occasional Strike Witches episode. Mainly getting ready to start the iM@S anime in July.

Currently, there is no anime I have interest in as much as I do for the iM@S anime and Ro-Kyu-Bu, both of which will air during July.  So I have virtually nothing to watch at the moment.  ...Why can't July be right now?

What did you expect it to turn out to be?

Probably a fairly standard magical girl anime, but I had suspicions that big things would happen.
Turned out I was half-right.

Also, Mami is love. C:

Out of curiosity, I checked out Infinite Stratos.
I thought it wasn't that great, to be honest. I knew what I was getting into before watching it, but there wasn't enough action, and the plot was mostly backstory on the various characters, and not a developing story. Overall, it felt very dull and uninteresting.
However, the IS battles had pretty good CG, and the IS designs were neat. There were some funny moment, too. And while some characters felt uninteresting (Cecilia, I'm looking at you), and some disappointing (Laura, sadly :(), I actually have a favorite IS girl; Charlotte. :)


GAH, WRONG CHARLOTTE!


Much better. :) Delicious reverse-trap Charles is also acceptable. :] And I'm sure someone must have made a Char Aznable pun somewhere...

Since S2 is coming, I may check it out... but hopefully it will improve; lots of room for that.

So, not really watching this (it's kinda impossible, it comes out this Fall), but...

Quote from: http://www.otakon.com/events_premieres.asp
Angel ScandyS is a comedy about three normal girls, three demons, and three angels, trying to become idols.

...

The angels and demons don't know what to do, until the Principal says that he will give his soul to whoever does more to help him take back his school. The angels and demons are interested in becoming idols to begin with, so they gladly accepted! Now the angels and demons are going through idol training on Earth!

I, whaaaaaaat?!? It's like we've got Maoh, and Angels... (now where's the half-width space between them?) Turns out I was on the right track when the only thing I could think of, given certain hints about who was going to Otakon, was Atsushi Nishigori...

Also...

Quote from: Kousuke Kurose, Neue Green Vol. 1, Afterward (translated from Japanese)
Then it hit me: I should write a stand alone comic!
The name went something along the lines of, "Talented producer and his dear three devil ladies turned idols!"
(At the time, I had a commision with Comic REX for telecard art.)
But well... I had no idea how to make them look good on stage, or even how to make said stage look good. Which meant I had to go looking.
And then, in the back of my mind, I recalled that there was in fact something called Idolm@ster. I went to its web page...
(snip)
(But before I could finalize the name, one of my previous works got serialized, so it went unfinished.)
Two years later, I kinda stumbled and fell onto the serialization of this manga.

This is probably coincidence, but I couldn't help but remember.
