Yeah, it's currently listed for midnight March 27th Japan time.

That would mean 8AM tomorrow morning Pacific Daylight Time right?

The first episode of "Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari" supposedly aired March 20th 4AM. Lupin III vs. Detective Conan airs March 27th 9PM. Now that would be fun to watch even raw. :)

Well, I'll wait the One week and watch it for free on Crunchyroll, it looks like really good quality, and it will be subbed without all of those random text that fan dubbers have :D ...since I don't know enough Japanese
to watch the RAW X|
At least they are adding all of the eps from the first series to Crunchyroll ^_^
Series 2 (wait a week to see it subbed:)

Who in the heck she will end up with....
Can be resolved ^_^
-------------------------
And here is CLIP with a bunch of the new anime!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone seen the La Corda episode and can tell us what they thought of it?

Have any of the other Angelique or Harukanaru female protagonists ended up with anyone in their respective anime?

I used to know the pattern for who the male protaognists would end up with in ren'ai game anime, but they're not using the same patterns anymore. The anime producers are trying to be more unpredictable these days.

They are less predictable...but the anime end with very mixed results. :?

I did not see the end to either of those anime (YET), so I'm not sure if anyone ended up with anyone else......
And I doubt that the girl will end up with any of the new guys in the new La Cora OVA because 2 eps is not enough time to fit all the character development in there......
I had a strong sense that she would end up with
Ren, but so far no go >_<
It's kind of funny that mostly every show has some sort of pair, heck even GUNDAM series!!!!! and people actually end up together, but in some of these new shows there is one huge male Harem and no couples >_<
I hope that the new shows prove me wrong....

I watched the first episode of La Corda D'Oro ~Secondo Passo~. :roll:
I wasn't very happy how they decided the winner of the contest and they did it so easily. Very lame IMHO! The new characters look like they could be interesting. I don't like what Hihara is doing with his hair though. X| The artwork though is always amazing on this series. Plenty of yumminess to look at. :P

Well yeah, all the Gundam series have at least one coupling. The Gundam series are really about people and their relationships. The mechs are just their devices. :wink: *waiting on pins & needles for the finale of Gundam 00* I get tired of all the harem series. Although, they can give you some awesome eye candy but I find the stories much more interesting when it's narrowed down to at least a love triangle. :wink:

I haven't seen any of ~secondo passo~ or Conan vs Lupin. I'm just waiting for the dls. My computer does not do well with streaming video. :roll:

I see Lupin vs. Conan raw files in the 736 Mb to 786 Mb range.

I wonder if that smaller 199Mb FLV file is playable? I am too impatient here. :)

Woops I double posted. Sorry about that. :O This deserves a head bashing. :bwall

EDIT:

Yep...it does work. The show looks good too. Can't wait for the subtitles. The files numbers are out of order though. File 2 looks to be substituted for File 1. I got spoilered on the plot right from the get go.

I'm a very patient person who doesn't want to be spoiled. So I'll just wait for the subbed dls. :^^: Well, that is until I've learned Japanese and don't need subs anymore. :wink:

Good thing I didn't try to get that supposed "Pandora Hearts" early preview episode because it was a fake.

That Lupin vs, Conan is quite long like an hour and thirty/forty minutes (hard to tell since my files are in five pieces and contain a few commericials) so it'll probably take a little longer than usual before the subs come out. It's more like a motion picture than a typical Special.

And I've only written out 10 of 47 listed anime so far (too lazy). They seem to have added 2 or 3 shows at the last minute.

Still no subs >_<...If only....if only.....
I really want to watch it, but I know that If I watch it in Japanese I'll understand .0000001% of it...and with Conan since stuff is so complicated already, and since it's a detective show I'll get more confused @_@

On other news:

La Corda Ova ep 1, is watchable for free/and legaly in 3 days...
http://www.crunchyroll.com/library/La_C ... ondo_Passo
^_^

HOWEVER....There are bad NEWS....I've been hearing that the 2d ep of the OVA comes out on JUNE 5th 2009...............*_*

They're been doing more OVA/Movie anime endings and long breaks between separate anime seasons lately. It's a way for them to get back their anime production costs and taking less risk, but they also put more stress on viewers by doing that. :(

And just seeing the Lupin and Detective Conan casts interacting with each other is very cool! :hello

I wish they would do these kinds of things more often.

I'm just happy (and a little sad) that I got to see my season finales of Kyo Kara Maou and Gundam 00 this weekend. I really hope KKM has a 4th season just because I love it so much. They both had great endings. :)

And it makes me happy that I have plenty of other things to keep me busy while I await dls of La Corda D'Oro ~secondo passo~. :^^: June may seem like a long way away but it'll be here in the blink of an eye. I'm wondering how it became April already. X|

Here's a preview of new anime TV series coming out in April 2009. This info comes from Moonphase, AnimeNfo, Anime News Network Encyclopedia, Fansubwiki, Anime News Service, Anime Suki Forum, NeoSam and Wikipedia.
Scheduled dates are subject to change without notice. Some anime will have early preview releases, etc.

Genre: Fantasy
(From Anime News Network): ----- The December issue (on sale on November 10) of Kadokawa Shoten's Newtype magazine will confirm that Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari, the Tenchi Muyo! anime spinoff that has been in development for a decade, is now in production. The magazine confirms the involvement of Masaki Kajishima, the AIC freelance co-creator of the Tenchi Muyo! and Dual! projects. The story is set in an alternate world called Geminar, where countries have fought endless wars with replicas of humanoid Seikishi weapons that they found in ancient ruins. 15-year-old Kenji Masaki, the half-brother of Tenchi Muyo! protagonist Tenchi Masaki, is summoned from another world to Geminar. Kajishima began discussing his "Seikishi Monogatari" concept a decade ago. According to Kajishima, he had already conceived this half-brother when the original Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki video series was in development. At the time, Kajishima had planned to work on "Seikishi
Monogatari" after Tenchi Muyo GXP, but it has been put on hold ever since. Kajishima wrote in his most recent doujinshi for the Comic Market conventions that production on "Seikishi Monogatari" is going forward, and AIC posted a teaser website last month.

This is another Tenchi spinoff.
