Here for Hanamaru 2 and CCS!

I thought Pop Team Epic was this fall?

And I'll probably watch Idolish 7 because from what I've heard...the music's actually not that bad.

**ThePhillyFlash** · September 20th, 2017, 02:19 AM

Toji no Miko. Cute girls wielding swords. Count me in!

**tigeress02** · October 18th, 2017, 07:27 PM

Updated first two posts. Here's part one of the info on the winter shows we currently know of. Skipping over most of the sequels / remakes.

Basilisk: Ouka Ninpouchou

Takes place 10 years after the first series.

Beatless

I believe in that smile. Even if you don't have a soul.

2105 A.D. Japan

The humanoid android hiE became part of people's life and was handling the things human could and couldn't do. Endou Arato, unlike his friends Kenko and Ryou who hate hiE, felt sympathy for hiE which are supposed to be just objects. One night, Arato suddenly gets assaulted by mysterious falling cherry blossoms that make hiE and machines run havoc. Will the cornered Arato be saved by the mysterious hiE Lacia...

Butlers: Chitose Momotose Monogatari [Trailer]

The anime centers on two protagonists. Koma Jinguji (Jay) is the smart and handsome student council president. His elegant smile captures the hearts of women. Tsubasa Hayakawa is a multi-talented and gentle shop assistant at a caf�. His cafe latte with owl latte art is very popular with female customers. The two men travel through time to fight their archenemy. The charming "Butlers," as they are called, fight supernatural battles and also experience a slapstick comedic life at their academy.

Citrus [Trailer]

Fashionable Yuzu imagined the first day at her new school she transferred to after her mother's remarriage a bit differently; she didn't know it'd be an ultra-strict and conservative girls' school. So instead of a sweet high-school romance, she butts heads with the stern student council president Mei�who turns out to be her new step sister. And she has to learn that hate and attraction are often not that far apart.

Dame � Prince Anime Caravan

Based off the "prince-raising" mobile game for young women. The game follows Anri, a princess from the minor nation of Inako. Anri is sent to the signing ceremony that will bring peace to the rival nations of Mildonia, a mighty military country, and Selenfaren, a powerful theocracy. Ani is supposed to help steer the signing ceremony along, but she runs into trouble when she encounters a handful of obstinate princes.

The anime will tell an original story different from the smartphone game, and will be episodic.

Darling in the Franxx [Trailer]

An original sci-fi anime from Studio Trigger and A-1 Pictures. The FRANXX mentioned in the title are female-shaped robots. Each robot has a male-female pairing (one or both are the pilots?).

Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku [Trailer]

29-year-old programmer Suzuki Ichirou finds himself transported into a fantasy RPG. Within the game, he's a 15-year-old named Satou. At first he thinks he's dreaming, but his experiences seem very real. Due to a powerful ability he possesses with limited use, he ends up wiping out an army of lizard men and becomes a high leveled adventurer. Satou decides to hide his level, and plans to live peacefully and meet new people. However, developments in the game's story, such as the return of a demon king, may cause a nuisance to Satou's plans.

Fate/Extra: Last Encore [Trailer]

Waking up in a strange virtual world with no recollection of the past, Hakuno finds himself forced to fight for survival in a war he does not understand for a prize beyond value; the opportunity to have one's wish granted. With only an enigmatic "Servant" by his side, Hakuno Kishinami will have to face both friends and foes in battles to the death in order to not only gain possession of a mysterious object known as the "Holy Grail," but also to find the answer to the most important question of all: "Who am I?"

Gakuen Babysitters

The manga centers on the brothers Ryuuichi and Kotarou Kashima. Ryūichi is in high school and Kotarou is still a toddler. After their parents are killed in a plane crash, the two brothers find themselves living with the chairwoman of the Morinomiya Academy, who herself lost her son and daughter-in-law in the same accident. The chairwoman, however, has one stipulation for the brothers in order to live with her: Ryuuichi has to work at the academy's daycare center as a babysitter.

Grancrest Senki (licensed by Aniplex of America) [Trailer]

The story takes place on a continent ruled by chaos. The chaos breeds disaster, but the Lords of the continent have the power of "Crest" (a Mark of the Saint) that can calm the chaos and protect the people. However, one day the rulers throw away their creed of protecting the people, and instead start to fight each other with their powers to gain dominion over each other. The novels center on Silka, an isolated mage who scorns the Lords for abandoning their creed, and a wandering knight named Theo, who is on a journey to train to one day liberate his hometown, which is under tyrannical rule. Silka and Theo make an everlasting oath to each other as master and servant, and work together to reform this continent dominated by wars and chaos.

Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens [Trailer]

At first glance, the Fukuoka city seems like a peaceful one, but under the surface, crime is running rampant. The city's Hakata ward is home to the professionals of the underworld: professional killers, detectives, informants, professional revenge seekers, those skilled in torture, and more. And according to urban legend, even a "killer of professional killers" exists in the city. When stories of the men in the underworld are told, a "professional killer murder" appears.

Hakumei to Mikochi

Nine centimeters (3.5 inches) tall, the tiny girls Hakumei and Mikochi live in the forest. Living in a tiny house in a tree, riding insects and birds, and making umbrellas out of leaves, these tiny girls live a tiny life. Follow their tiny but lovely lives as they live their day to day in a fantastic world of tiny people and gods

IDOLiSH7 [Trailer]

Based on the mobile game. The player assumes the role of Tsumugi Takanashi, a manager for a new idol group. She must train seven male singers � each with their own individual personalities � to turn them into the No. 1 idols.

Itou Junji: Collection

The anime will adapt stories from both the 11-volume Itō Junji Kessaku-shū (Junji Ito Masterpiece Collection) series and the Fragments of Horror book. The site has still not revealed which stories will be adapted, and noted that the characters in the key visual may or may not appear in the anime.

Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san [Trailer]

"If you blush, you lose."

Living by this principle, the middle schooler Nishikata gets constantly made fun of by his seat neighbor Takagi-san. With his pride shattered to pieces, he vows to turn the tables and get back at her some day. And so, he attempts to tease her day after day, only to find himself victim to Takagi-san's ridicule again sooner than later. Will he be able to make Takagi-san blush from embarrassment even once in the end?

The "Seven Mortal Sins," demons from hell, have pressed forward and have started to spread their plague. Heaven is in chaos, and the angels of the "Seven Heavenly Virtues" are sent to Earth to search for a candidate to become the "true messiah."

This show takes place in the same universe as Seven Mortal Sins. Crunchyroll simulcasted and Funimation simuldubbed that show and I suspect they will do the same with this new show.

**tigeress02** · December 15th, 2017, 07:59 PM

Let the flood of streaming announcements begin. The following will all be simulcast on Crunchyroll and simuldubbed on Funimation.

But everything changes when he meets Zero Two, the girl with horns.
Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody
Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens [Trailer]

Crime reaches new heights in the seedy underworld of Fukuokaa city home to very sinister professions.

Katana Maidens ~ Toji No Miko [Trailer]

A Place Further Than the Universe
IDOLiSH7 (Eps 1-2 are already up)
Yuru Camp△ (aka Laid Back Camp)

Crunchyroll will also be streaming these two according to Aniplex of America (who has the license).

Record of Grandcrest War (also on Hulu)
Slow Start

As far as Amazon's Anime Strike goes, this is what we should expect. The list will grow, assuming Sentai is still partnered with them.

Beatless
Killing Bites
Koi wa Ameagari no You ni
Kokkoku

And as a reminder, Netflix has Violet Evergarden and they won't be streaming it till Spring. While they haven't announced it, I imagine they have the new season of Seven Deadly Sins and we won't be seeing that right way either.

KARAKAI JOZU NO TAKAGI-SAN [Trailer]

In the second season of Dagashi Kashi, the story follows Kokonotsu, who does not want to inherit his family's rural candy store as his father wishes. A girl named Hotaru, who's crazy about small-time candy stores, appears at the store and repeatedly visits in order to convince him to take it over.
