END OF RINE

•February 12, 2012 • 80 Comments

As you can probably guess, i’ve sort of forgotten about this site – the reason mainly because there’s little reason to actually update it anymore. Plenty of anime sites and blogs have more than enough information on upcoming shows, and broadcast that information well. And although i’ve stopped making these info charts, it seems they’ve inspired a bunch of people to make their own and keep the tradition alive amongst /a/ and other sites, for which was the entire reason for my little project – they are much more tedious to compile than it looks, so i’m glad there are other still willing to put the effort in. People have even gone ahead and made charts for previous years, and they’ll be floating around somewhere i’m sure.

So to anyone who actually still checks this site anymore that isn’t a russian bot, or did, I appreciate the support, and once again a big thanks to the guys who have decided to continue to make preview charts.

EDIT: I have no intention of actually closing this thing so whatever I posted should still be online indefinitely. Oh, and thanks for the replies, I am surprised at the significant amount of response! You are all bros.

As for sources for charts, I can’t really find any aggregates of the gorrillion different versions floating around (do inform if you find any), so i’ll just post some links:
http://twitter.com/#!/animucharts
http://atxpieces.wordpress.com/author/atxpieces/
http://neregate.com/blog/anime-charts/

There are even more i’ve seen on /a/ and other places too, including some crafty troll charts that no doubt fooled some people. If you know of any sites devoted to translations of charts then i’ll stick them up here too.

Also check out some of those links on the right for some decent sources, such as the Mahou Showtime active schedule (very handy for live streams), the FanSubWiki for subs, and other various informative places.

Thanks all!

Fall (or Autumn, if you will) 2011 preview charts

Shit is hitting the fan everywhere this year, but at least the anime selection is looking decent. Thanks to everyone for putting effort into making these charts and keeping us all updated on what’s coming up :)

Summer 11 *update*

•May 29, 2011 • 18 Comments

Nelson has V2 of his chart, and we have another chart from animechart.desu.ru, with a Russian alternative too.

This season sees all the big name studios back in one season together, so it should be an interesting one.

Spring 2011 – *Update*

•March 21, 2011 • 7 Comments

April is approaching, so here are the updated versions of the Spring 11 preview charts, provided by the superb nelson☆彡 and The Cart Driver respectively.

Remember that the recent Earthquake in Japan may have an effect on the times and dates of some anime, the actions of studios and TV stations, and content within some shows may possibly lead to episodes or series being rescheduled or even censored in some cases (scenes of disaster aren’t going to be particularly popular right now). Nothing major seems to have happened to the industry or schedule so far, but it’s worth keeping in mind.

Winter 2010/11

•January 5, 2011 • 12 Comments

There’s been a good deal of previews floating around, from various different people, that cover both this new season and the upcoming Spring too. It’s great to see people taking on the ‘responsibility’, if you will, to keep people easily informed on what’s coming up.

Consider me retired, unless the need for new charts arises. I haven’t forgotten the project to document pre-2008 series, but no promises there :)

_ _ _

nelson☆彡 provides a nice visual summary of the current Winter season. Many thanks!

Also feel free to check out these resources for next season information:

  • Moetron – Compilation of good charts. Excellent list of OVA and other information
  • The Fansub Wiki – Good list of upcoming TV series, and information on what groups are going to translate them.

Enjoy the New Year!

Sort of haven’t bothered with the V2 of Fall, mostly due to moving into Uni, gaining what resembles an actual life and then some extra work on top of that, leading to a neglect I only noticed when the large amount of Fall anime suddenly appeared online, at that point adding any extra info a fairly redundant idea.

I might do Winter, but no promises. In the case that I don’t continue these charts, I think enough of a precedent has been set that someone else will pick up the task – in which case, “my work is done”.  Right now i’ll be subtly pressuring The Cart Driver to do just that, who is doing a great job, so I recommend you all take advantage of his nifty preview charts.

Those charts of 2000-2009 are also up in the air, but I promise to at least think about it…

Fall 2010, oh lawdy

Were I not graced with these brilliantly written and thoughtfully constructed additions, I would be unable to continue my divine mission of arranging and re-arranging vague summaries of japanese cartoons on an A4 page.

That aside, here is the actual chart. It’s good to see that rather than wait for some lazy moron to finally throw together some text and images, some people actually went ahead and made their own chart (much thanks to Cart Driver for that), meaning people can still easily access info on the next season without having to pointlessly wait. And of course, the various bloggers who put together their previews,  as well as contributors at places such as  Fansub Wiki, Moetron and Animesuki are responsible for bringing that info to a wider audience. Without those guys it would be much harder.

OVAs probably in the next version, editable batch file will be here at some point too. If you see any mistakes in this version, please point them out :x – Dates and stuff i’ll properly document in the next version.

One more thing.

NEWSFLASH: I AM LAZY

A small update of sorts – this chart’s been appearing online, which is accurate as far as I can see, so providing you can read the moonrunes then it’s a reliable source of info (I assume, anyway)

As for the English version, it’s coming along, just don’t hold your breath :I

Summer 2010 – Version 2

•June 29, 2010 • 41 Comments

Sorry if the previous title raised hopes, it was just a quick message :I

Anyways, here is the actual V2. Three new anime to be added are Cat Shit One, Stitch 3 and what appears to be “Monster Hunter with Cats”. Oh, Japan. Also new are the Air dates, re-arranged order, and the OVAs and Continuations.

Oh, and a small rant. For some reason, a new and hip trend with Season Lists is to add Months which are not actually a part of that season – whilst the attempt to make Summer four months long is an endearing and naively hopeful idea, it is also an idea that is INCORRECT. September is in Fall – got that? Okay? Thanks.

Editables follow soon~

Done and dusted, and half a month late. Ah well, at least I did it.

OVAs and what not may follow eventually. I’ll also have a batch of editables soon for translating and such.

Enjoy!

Spring V2

•March 15, 2010 • 72 Comments

You know the drill, late etc.

Here is Version 2. There aren’t many changes, apart from new shows and OVAs. The most noticeable difference is that Ironman was wrongly pegged for April, when it’s in fact scheduled for another season (same goes for Wolverine in turn). Interestingly, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is confirmed to air this season now, alongside Rainbow from a year ago.

Anyways, enjoy. Seeing as this is a fairly conclusive list, a V3 probably won’t be needed.

I’ve decided to put OVAs in earlier this time, due to the fact that whilst TV series may take a few months, OVA dates can be quite early.

Spring '10

The absolute law of the universe dictates that there will be mistakes and stupid obvious errors, so please point them out so I can correct them.

As said before:

  • Kuroshitsuji is in July.
  • Strike Witches is not airing this season.
  • Sekirei is not airing this season.
  • Even if movies are apparently “released” on a certain date, they are usually in theatres and so won’t be released online anywhere near the date.
  • 2000-2009 charts are coming along somehow
