Alright the first few episodes of the anime I was looking forward to have been fansubbed.
First up, Casshern Sins. Interesting twist on the plot, I may be a bit rusty on the characters, but so far it looks like something went wrong in the time line to go down a different path. the art style is very good, fight scenes are a bit jumbled but it at least keeps who's doing what strait. I'm definitely going to be keeping up with this series.
Gundam 00 S2, MOST AWESOME RE-INTRODUCTORY EVER! it takes place about 2 years after the first season. lots of things have changed, but Tieria is still a TRAP. they've introduced a new mecha called A-LAWS which if one watched the first season are basically GN-X upgrades. I doubt though they fixed that deadly radiation problem in that time. and Setsuna spend the entire time IN SPACE fighting with his one armed Exia. a couple of new comers were introduced. Mr. Bushido however isn't, for we all know who he is. if you haven't watched season one, I would heavily suggest you watch it first before you start on season 2, just like Code Geass.
Kurogane no Linebarrel (AKA Linebarrel of Iron). huge disappointment with this one. they did a huge re-write of the back story (read as cut out all of it). there were a good portion of inconsistencies that are still irking the hell out of me. one of which is the Main Character Koichi not noticing copious amounts of blood on his coat, button shirt, and his undershirt! for over half of the episode! how can one not notice that? about the only redeeming things were they definitely got some good staff on the CG Models of the mechas and possibly they might return to the original story line (one can only hope.)
so out of all the ones that I was looking forward to only one gets the "wait and see" treatment. I would recommend Casshern Sins but I'm still reserved on that one. definitely going to keep up with Double 0 S2.

I bet they are. I couldn't physically eat after the ending of School Days *shudder*.
Kemeko DX (after watching the rest of the ep.) seems to live in audacity. its riddled with otaku culture, seems to heavily rely on "Moe" *Shudder*, and is over all cliched. that doesn't mean it isn't funny. its pretty fun to watch but I'd only watch it once. cause after that, it'd probably get on my nerves too much.
Bounen no Xamdou (or Xam'd: Lost Memories) is really good. decent plot, great pace, art style is a good mix of styles, and over all its a good Finding one's self story. it does the transition between serious and dark tones to light hearted and carefree very well. I would recommend getting (if you have the money and a PS3) it.
I haven't watched Ga-Rei yet. I really should. stupid Captain Harlock box set. no no, I take that back, stupid me for finding the box set.
