And just when we believed 2006 was some sort of awesome… the dawn of 2007. Alright, that’s probably not totally true. With the end of 2007 drawing near, it is time for year-end reflections. Yes, it is that time when bloggers confront their senses and memories with “best-of” questions. Yes, it is time to see the outcome of the pearly hands we were all dealt as viewers. Who wins? Who loses? What happened in 2007 that makes this a memorable year? Yes, all these things, will not be lost in time, they are just ahead.

I posted about Nodame Cantabile at the beginning of the year; it was my Winter 2007 pick. Nodame Cantabile was an extremely solid series in nearly every aspect, and I was very glad to have experienced such a series this year.

Jeeze, this seemed like an off week for me. Aside from anime, the weather was terrible until yesterday. I just felt like doing absolutely zero; not even watching anime *sigh*. I did however gander a few episodes throughout the week and that is always relaxing. My big 3 series of the week had to have been Negima!?, Kyoshiro Towa no Sora, and CODE GEASS. More…

Alright, so that image isn’t very “in season” but winter is sparkling (raining here), and summer is something I’m urging for with the recent mist-weather we’ve had here on this grand peninsula. *clears throat*
I’ve really taken it upon myself to limit my Winter ‘07 approach. There are around 6+ shows I would usually want to check out, but I’ve only grasped 4 for now; perhaps more when subs flutter. More…

There’s really no need for me to go into the details of my January selection as hashihime has already put together some useful info on a good portion of the January premiers. It really seems I just grabbed the moe ones and hardly any shounen-style, but I expect to probably lose interest in a couple of these (just facing reality). Here’s some found in hashihime’s descripts:
- Nodame Cantabile (watched the live-action, it’s fun)
- Manabi Straight (cute characters, but the trailer didn’t “set-me-off”)
- Venus Versus Virus (more anticipated)
- Kyoshiro to Towa no Sora (more anticipated; wishing to see how if it will relate to Kannazuki no Miko, ie)
Edit: Definitely some confusion on my part, I guess I should have looked at the end dates on the anidb.info calendar, because it is totally off. My bad! ^_^, Thanks Danny n Demien for pointing this out :). Anyway, Polyphonica, Ketai Shoujo, Lucky Star, Seto no Hanayome look like Spring. Nanatsurio Drops looks like it may be further off.
I took a glance at the calendar on anidb a month ago and jotted it in because the start date was 01.01.2007. Note to self: be skeptical of dates airing from 01.01.2007 to 12.31.2007. A dead giveaway of how incorrect that calendar is could probably be seen with the Zero 2 and Higurashi 2 being listed for January, which is error all the way (though they weren’t listed a month ago). Funny thing is that going through February and March on the calendar, I really didn’t take to anything else. So I’ll change the title and remove most of those series, and blah, this post sucked. Oh well, [note kawaii snow miko instead].
I was only a bit confused ^^
I guess if my Winter outlook is sparse, it is for the better. More time to keep up with Fall shows and eat up the backlog. Yaay!
