Happy New Year! Step into 2010

As i said many months ago, Winter wasnt' very appealing. The theme is getting more and more generic. But there are some titles where will consider watching because people say i watch too much Shoujo. So, I'll approach a title with a much darker or "manly" theme (pff, sexist).


Dance In The Vampire Bund

The first of SHAFT’s two Winter series is Dance In The Vampire Bund. It’s about the princess of all vampires and her bodyguard as they establish a new kingdom in Japan and all the challenges and dangers they run into with humans and with other vampires. The main girl is a bit like Nagi from Hayate, but instead of a comedy, this is a dark and much more mature series with a dose of politics and plenty of backstabbing.


Durarara!!

Replacing Darker than BLACK in this Thursday MBS timeslot is a series based on a light novel written by the same guy who wrote the Baccano! series. The anime is being produced by the same Brains Base team that animated Baccano! as well, and it features a large cast of characters centered in Ikebukuro, including a mysterious black motorcycle rider and a guy who just moved there to attend high school.
