Fall/Autumn 2009 Schedule Highlights

For the pass few weeks, I've been really busy thanks to my inconsiderate lecturers, but whatever. At least I'm having a break now, so I can resume my hobby of blogging! Hahaha. "Dont'cha love da holidays?!"

For many of us, its just that time of year again where the season changes, from very sunny days to much soggy weeks to come. That time again to bring out your winter clothes for the long cold and wet days to come (if you happen to be in the northern hemisphere, but to the folks in the South, happy spring!)

Well, not for us otakus~! The shift of Sept to Oct has been smoothly moved by the release schedule of this fall's lineup of show to come. BANZAI~!

If you guys haven't seen the schedule yet (stupid remark here...), visit Hashihime for the entire lineup.

So for now, I'll just highlight the main attractions that caught my eye out of the 57 titles...

Canaan - The Land of Hope

Honestly, I was at the edge of my seat when I heard Type-moon was starting another series project. As far as I have seen, these guys have yet to fail me in my expectations...

One the most awesome animes this summer, Canaan, by Type-moon started with a very explosive and action packed beginning. No qualms there as it was definitely the type of show I'm into.

Set in Shanghai, China, a woman who goes by the name of Canaan, jumps over rooftops while firing bullets with deadly accuracy, in a batle with a group know as the "Snakes". At the same time, she starts to discover herself when she ran into an long friend, Osawa Maria whom she had met in the past. Despite her poker face and age, she is different from all of us due to her deadly ability, Synesthesia. She is able to tell apart from foe and ally by judging them from the "colour" they emit from her blood red eyes...
