The Upcoming "Season" of Late Night Cartoons Aimed at Japanese 14 Year Olds

Some of the upcoming anime shows that were/are premiering in the next few weeks.

   Slayers Revolution...included for completeness sake, hardly worth mentioning.

       


    Strike Witches...the toy add was sublime.
Can the series live up to that? Doubtful...
and yet...
The toy add was SO sublime ..


 


  Mission E...sequel(?) to Code E...Yet another excuse to watch the rest of Code E which I thought had much promise.



Ikkitousen Great Guardians....Let me say quite loudly for the benefit of any EEOC officers, Liberal Arts professors, and insecure female graduate assistants that I am deeply and profoundly offended by the very existence of this pathologically pointless and prurient show...that is my story and I am sticking to it.


 
   World Destruction...More lighthearted cheer from Prodution IG. A girl  has the super power "destroy whole world"...which naturally comes with the 8 point limitation " destroys whole world". Complications ensue..

(Update: Wonderduck has thoughts)

   
 
 
   Detroit Metal City...The Manga reportedly involves a Garage Band that switches from Swedish pop (!?) to Heavy Metal with sinister results. I'm unsure if this is a comedy, a drama, or an afterschool special.

 
  
 
   Chocolate Underground...looks like another Shirow "kids show". The food police are cracking down on chocolate consumption with the reserve and good sense we see from the DEA and ATF...the kids rebel....this could be fun.

(Update: You Tube added, still not the OP, but a  5min clip)

 
   Birdy The Mighty-Decode...Birdy the Mighty for the 21st century.

 
 
   Utraviolet-Code 44...They made an anime based on Ultraviolet? Well it looks stylish.


 
   Slayers Revolution....Some derivative D&D type show. Likely of no interest to anybody.

 
 
   RoboDz Kazagumo Hen...Kids robot show which is interesting as it is a Toei/ Disney co-production  (no trailer available)
 
  Hidemari Sketchx365....Apparantly not just a slice of life show...the whole fricking pie graph.

  

lawd that is...cheery...
 
  Antique Bakery...Shounin Ai...with bread...and dough...and...I'll leave it at that....

 


 
  Telepathy Shoujou Ran...no info..I assume telepathy is involved and so are girls and flowers.
Update: OP Added

  
  
 
  Yakushiji Ryouko no Kaiki Jikenbo...(Ryokos Case File?)...Tokyo police paranormal investigations..


 
   Finally, there's some show called Slayers Revolution.
