Soul Eater
Here's the link of the trailer which you may need to copy and paste to your media player: mms://norvallen.mediafactory.co.jp/pv/soulpv-mae.wmv Now that I'm finished joygasming over the trailer many times, I can say that this could be one of the more anticipated titles for this coming Spring season along with Code Geass Season 2. I mean, this is just dripping with off-the-wall, punk-ish style! Of course this amount of high quality is expected from the BONES team who did Ouran. Andrew Cunningham summarized what Soul Eater is about in AnimeOnDVD so I'm quoting some stuff here:
Maka does look pretty cute and badass (and possible lead character, right?), and there's Blair which I heard is a very busty witch who's also a CATGIRL!!! 
First episode premieres at April 7th though I heard there's going to be broadcasted twice; one at the evening and one late at night. |

Just watched the trailer. The show looks like it is going to be quite good. But you know, couldn't you have waited a little longer before posting this. Now I want to watch it right now and it isn't out until the 7th! I'm going to be murdered by anticipation.

Seems like this season will crowded with a lot of interesting stuff (or at least it does to me) and Soul Eater is the one who first caught my attention and is now definitively my most anticipated. Watching the trailer I'm glad to say that, at the very least, it's going to be awfully pretty to look at, the art style is absolutely killer. And that Death The Kid, he's awesome.

The normal show will air on Mondays while the earliest airing of the late show (depends on the affiliate) will air early early Fridays.
I've been anticipating this show for a very long time. I'm a little apprehensive about the voices though. Soul came off as too deep, and Maka was way too flat (people on 2ch were complaining all morning). They're both newcomers though, so who knows what will happen. Also, you can already see the (slight, so far) changes they're making to the story from the trailer. |

Looks good, but where's the subtitled trailer? Reminds me of bleach...

I wasn't very interested in this series when it was first announced (since the concept felt like a rip of Bleach), but the impossibly slick trailer changed my mind.  I've added this series to my list of anticipated Spring titles. I do agree with Skys though. This topic was made too soon. As if the wait until April wasn't already bad enough ....

Just a note... even though one of the characters is a shinigami, this series hardly deals with deaths or souls.

I was thinking about making like five threads over here for next season shows, as it's a fairly common thing to do months ahead on AoD. Builds up anticipation and gets the names out there. But it's because there aren't many like these on ANN I hesitated. Maybe I should go ahead and make one for Real Drive? 
I recently cut down the number of titles I'm checking out this spring, but Soul Eater is still on the list of shows to watch. I like the style... it just looks cool overall. I hope it turns out great. 
(Comparing it to Bleach never crossed my mind.) |

Huh? Then why is it called Soul Eater? I guess I'll have to find out once the series premieres.
Now you're talking.

The lead male character's name is Soul Eater. |

Making those threads sounds like a good idea. I was joking a little bit in my previous post. It can be nice to see what shows will be coming out and anticipation for the good shows can sometimes make them that much better. Also, I don't really follow what new series are coming, so threads like these are usually my first exposure to many of the new shows. The only other spring shows that I knew about before this one was Code Geass 2 and Library War. In any case, the spring season looks like it is going to be very good. |

This and Real Drive so far are the 2 series I'm gonna give a shot this season. Really, only because there the only 2 I know are coming out this season
but also because in reading the basic description it seems like they're both gonna be pretty good. Of course I don't have to say much about Real Drive  (I mean, it's I.G. and Shirow for heaven's sake!). But for Soul Eater, I typically really like these types of series anyways, so at the very least I'll probably enjoy it as a pretty good action series. 
I hadn't really thought of it as much of a Bleach ripoff myself, but in a way I could maybe see how it could be anyways. I'll just watch the series and see for myself. |

This show's art design and animation sure looks interesting, plus its animated by Bones. As long as it's not a long drawn out shounen show I'm sure I'll be able to enjoy it. There sure a lot of shows this season that look promising, let's hope they don't disappoint.

Ahhhhhh .... I see.
Ah, yes. I'm interested in seeing that one myself. Like Real Drive, it's also from Production I.G. Last edited by Jedi General on Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:10 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Oh that's right I forgot, it's Bones! That's a huge plus for me as well. Yet another good reason to give it a shot.
