All right, despite the great offerings at hand for the Fall Season, I found myself picking up only one series. This series, by the way, is Skip Beat. I will also be co-authoring for Chaos;Head, presenting the alternative and extremely delusional view of a blogger that shows the absolute truth.
Anyway, here is your chance as a reader of THAT to suggest the series Impz should blog for the coming season. Of course, the following series are not going to be touched as we already have bloggers on it. Unless you wish for me to be tortured by them (I am sure you do, you sick freaks :<), I think that I prefer to do another series.
The series that are already dealt with by other THAT bloggers include:
Chaos;Head, Skip Beat, Toradora, Clannad, Gundam 00 2nd season,
Hakushaku To Yousei, Hyakko, Shikabane Hime, Kannagi - Do not list these series in your comments
In addition, Casshern Sins is out of the issue because it is not humanely possible for me to blog that series. Other than that, any series is open for debate as long as it is logically possible for my brain to function. I have been unable to finish blogging on many series lately, leaving the last 2-3 episodes to oblivion. It’s a bad habit that I have, and I will promise to follow this chosen series to the very end.
So, give me your comments. I am most likely to take the series that is mentioned the most. Yet, if there is a quirky choice, I might just go on that as well even though I am more inclined toward Mouryo no Hako.

[…] from the feedback of various commentators, I have decided on the series that I will hold on to the very […]
THAT Animeblog - How I gathered from the feedback… added these pithy words on Oct 16 08 at 3:45 amToaru Majutsu no Index is definitely worth it 
To Aru Majutsu no Index is the one 
Try Ga-Rei Zero. The first episode completely shocked me, I have no idea where the series is going with that ending of episode 1. Kurogane no Linebarrels could be an option too, the character development of the main character was just stupid in the first episode, going through different “stages”, but there is some potential storyline there. Oh, and Tytania could be good. I really have seen some images of it and nothing more, I’ve still got to see the first episode, but it didn’t look bad.
Otherwise, you have “_____ no Index” and Tales of Abyss. I believe both promises some good episodes.
PS. Yes, I’ve got too much free time to see so many animes lol…

LDC added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 4:29 pmI’m still not sure myself which series I’ll put on my Fall 2008 list so far… but here’re my choices for you - Kuroshitsuji and Tales of the Abyss.
Blist added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 4:34 pmSweet does this mean I can do Tytania over here?
I must be the only one that wasn’t really impressed with […]no index, at least the first episode. Ef was boring as well. What about Yozakura Quartet?
lelangir added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 4:35 pmSkip Beat at least. I’m thinking the other series I’m interested in that list will be covered by other bloggers

Arveene added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 4:44 pm@lelangir: You’ll have to fight me and Crusader for Tytania! #_#
@Impz: I would tell you to take Kuroshitsuji if I didn’t want to reserve it as an escape hatch in case Tytania doesn’t get subbed. Besides that… do the baseball one or Mouryou no Hako. MnH are WIN.

I’m a little disappointed that none of my favorite bloggers, you included, blogged the second episode of Kuroshitsuji. I don’t speak Japanese so I really look forward to good summaries, reviews, and jokes about a series…
Well, thanks for asking and hope you have fun blogging this fall:)
Dana added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 6:36 pmMy heart tell me to tell you, Nodame Cantabile - Paris Chapter, which I didn’t find any entries on the first 2007 series, so perhaps not. Impz, did you test those waters? Anyway, if not that I’ll vote for Mouryou no Hako murder mystery thing. And say Index last, which has a some loliessence built-in.
Ryan A added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 6:40 pmThat picture is disturbing as /hell/. Holy /shit/.
skoll added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 7:08 pm@skoll yeah, that pic was kind of disturbing.
Blog macademi Wasshoi just to be different. So random. It’s like Kyouran Kazoku Nikki (then again, I didn’t survive through the second KKN episode before I dropped it).

anon added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 9:32 pmActually, I found Kemeko disturbingly funny. I thought it’d be stupid harem action all over again, but it’s /just/ black enough to be darkly hilarious.
skoll added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 9:33 pmI vote for Macademi Wasshoi. It’s beginning to look like it’s going to be pretty good.
Steven Den Beste added these pithy words on Oct 12 08 at 9:40 pmEh? No one mentioned Shugo Chara Doki?
I wouldn’t mind reading reviews on the second season of Doramimi either =)
OMFG plz don’t do Toaru no Majutsu or another of those generic shows…
I like your choice of Mouryou no Hako, it shows promise; it’s not a generic teenager lead shounen show. Madhouse + Clamp can’t be a bad combination.
On the other hand, it’d be great to see Tytania blogged, it’s not a popular show (not that being popular means anything, take geass for example), but it’s definitely something different…in a good way.
If you have doubts about tytania, watch from 7:02 to 12:11 from this clip:
http://www.crunchyroll.com/media-38311/Legend-of-the-Galactic-Heroes-Episode-39.html
Now, I’m sure you know Tytania comes from the same author, and almost the same production team that gave us Legend of the Galactic Heroes, on that clip you can see the kind of content you can expect from it, it’s your call…

Forcing Impz to blog Casshern Sins would be torture + crime of war.
@LifeCarrier
I would have asked for Tytania too but it’s just Dekkai too manly for that green haired loli of Impz.
Better have crusader blog it as he has the best military savvy.
@Dana: Maybe they wait for the subbed?

Reverse Vampire added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 4:23 amTytania, if the subs ever come out should be #1.
Other notable series include: Gar Rei Zero, Tales of the Abyss, ef - a tale of melodies, One Outs or Michiko to Hachin (which hasn’t aired yet).
Halcyon added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 5:48 amHow about Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae? :}
Yozakura or Mouryou no Hako would be nice, but I’m willing to go with anything you yourself find worthy of blogging.

Enah added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 3:23 pmJust finished watching Kurozaku. Amazing first episode the production values are through the roof.
I’d suggest blogging that if you’re into samurai/historical/vampire stuff.
Lots of action. Amazing Matrix-like slow-motion fights. I was blown away.
Halcyon added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 3:40 pmI think Kuroshitsuji would be a great choice.

karuroso added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 7:15 pmHmmm… how about Ef~ a tale of melodies or Tytania? And please, please blog Mouryou no Hako XDD I just watched the first ep and loved it. Also, since it doesn’t seem to have subs as far as I know, I’m looking forward to summaries of the episodes at least =D.
Lycoris added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 7:39 pmYou know you want to spread Tear’s sexiness to the vast majority of people living in this barbaric world who have yet to hear her name. More Tear love please <3<3<3! lol… in all seriousness, as long as you enjoy the series you’re blogging I’m fine with anything.
OrpheusT added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 8:00 pmKuruzuka! possibly the best anime I’ve seen since Samurai Champloo! Lots of blood and sword fighting and animation quality that is on par with any movie
enigma777 added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 8:13 pmI vote for Mōryō no Hako.
Why did you include that image in the post?
Kitsune added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 9:01 pmWell, I am still undecided. That is why I am appealing to the masses to decide. Some of the key issues with the series that I am keen on.
~Ga Rei Zero~ is a show I have not watched yet. I am going to check the first episode out. Edit: Seems like the 2nd is out too. Getting that too :< ~To Aru Majutsu No Index~ is strictly a show that really makes it hard for me to comment or parody. I can definitely blog it like a strict summary show, but the quick subs and huge pockets of bloggers blogging it means I might not have a fresh intake on the series. If that is fine, I am good.
~Mouryo no Hako~ is the top show, if only if it is not that confusing. I really have trouble trying to summarize it and try to make sense to the viewers who are watching it. There are many deep and confusing themes for me to fully tackle in a constructive way that makes sense to everyone. I am not one who likes to flaunt my English (or the lack of it), and I do not see the point to make it so deep that only the well-snouted nose people understand it. That defeats the purpose in terms of blogging for me.
~Nodame Cantabile~ is a shoujo series that on surface seems to be right up my alley. I dropped it at Episode 14 during the first season due to being extremely bored. I cannot explain why I got sick of it, but I did. Crusader is pressing me to write it but I have not even watched episode 1 yet up to now.
~Tales of the Abyss~ is a game I played and I really want to blog on it. However, I am likely to just spam Tears is good. Actually… that sounds like a good idea.
~Masshoi whatever~ is a freaking loli ecchi show. The only reason I ever bothered with Koihime is due to the three kingdoms setting (or pseudo). Without it, it will require you to gouge my eyes out to blog it. I refuse to be blind.
~Kuroshitsuji~ will be my second choice, unless RV decides to blog it intensively. I like Sebastian a lot.
~Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka~ is forced viewing by my girlfriend. You can tell how interested I am. Moreover, harem shows are meh.
~EF~ is a show I really want to blog, but don’t dare to. It feels more like a series that Lelangir or someone might blog. It seems a new blogger (if admitted) might blog EF…So I might leave it to her. However, her entrance depends on the other bloggers’ acceptance of her.
~Tytania~ is the show Crusader is blogging. I prefer not to have the military hunt me down.
Any other major shows I miss through the comments? In addition, whoever asks me to blog Casshern Sins is a douchebag. HAH! *just teasing*
@Kitsune: I think that picture is random. Yes, don’t try to over-think my thought processes
Gouge your eyes out then! Macademi WAsshoi for the friggen’ win!
I WANT TO SEE IMPZ ANGER!
I am a simple man, with simple tastes… anything with lolies is fine…
EvilDevil added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 10:01 pmPeople are inherently biased and are incapable of random selection. Clearly you wanted to say something by choosing this picture…
Kitsune added these pithy words on Oct 13 08 at 10:12 pm@Kitsune: You have never visited the blog enough then to know my randomness. It’s legendary. That said, you are right. I am so biased that it becomes totally random. ^^

seriously now, try blogging tales of the abyss since your already a fan of that and so far the 3 episodes are wickedly nice ^_^
oh and i think you missed kemeko in the comments ^_^ personally i found index so-so but its still ok if you want to blog that i’m good with whatever you can say about that ^_^ i found kemeko too disturbingly ecchi and uncomprehensibly random lol ^_^ too much for my taste i guess…
oh and look at my name !! casshern ! casshern ! hahaha
ayuayu (douchebag) added these pithy words on Oct 14 08 at 8:14 pmI know everyone’s entitled to their own opinions but I’m kinda suprised you aren’t interested in Casshern SINS, most bloggers kinda like what they saw. I’m also suprised you think Casshern himself is too “emo”.
I’ve seen lots of main emo characters and Casshern seems to be one of the least emo ones, more of a confused fellow not knowing WTF is going on around him.
EVA’s Shinji and Naruto’s Sasuke, now that was too much emo.
Godaiger added these pithy words on Oct 15 08 at 5:43 am@Godaiger: sadly, I am not like most bloggers. ^^ I watch really different shows compared to the general anime blogger, and you will expect me to cover shows that most people won’t even think about. ^^
Impz added these pithy words on Oct 15 08 at 6:01 amYou got a point there, still I don’t think Casshern is even close to being too emo.
