World Trigger – 01

「異世界からの訪問者」 (I Sekai Kara no Hōmon Sha) “Visitor From the Other World”

As the era of the ‘Big 3’ is coming to a close, here comes the adaptation of World Trigger - Weekly Shonen Jump’s only surviving battle series in the last 6 years - ready to try and fill the shoes of this daunting genre!

Denki-gai no Honya-san – 01

「ラブ&エロス フォー オール / ナイトメア ビフォア カルナバル」 (Rabu & Erosu Foo Ooru / Naitomea Bifoa Karunabaru)
"Love & Ero For All / Nightmare Before Carnival"

After previewing the show for the Season Preview and having a good idea what this first episode would cover, I can't believe how much of a positive effect the transition to an anime had on this show.

Now that the fall preview is out, it's time to give you a first look at some of the shows we'll be blogging. This is Random Curiosity's Fall 2014 blogging schedule.

As always, this is a tentative overview of our plans for the new season. We'll also be doing introductory posts on many of the shows we're not covering, so if something catches our eyes, things will be shifted around to accommodate. The schedule will be updated to reflect any changes.

Fall 2014 Preview!

Say good-bye to the hot summer temperatures with a refreshing fall breeze and a slew of new anime for your viewing pleasure. There are some big hitters making their triumphant return, like Fate/Stay Night diving into its Unlimited Blade Works route and Log Horizon starting its second season. Some crazy slice-of-lifes making their fall debut include the mermaid-related Ore no Furo Jijou and the Akiba based bookstore Denki-Gai no Honya-san. There's also a bunch of your typical fare to fill in the cracks, like Kyoto Animation's slackstick drama Amagi Brilliant Park, a Sunrise original called Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo, A-1 pictures' part-medieval part-shounen Nanatsu no Taizai, a high school based fantasy known as Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de from Studio Trigger, and Studio Ghibli's first foray into television with Sanzoku no Musume Ronja. One's taste in anime can be really subjective, but I think this season's offerings provide enough for anyone to find something they'll like. So what are you waiting for? Start scrolling!
