Popular mangaka, BONES production values, Matsumoto’s skillful directing? After the financial success of Kyousougiga what could go wro- Kizumonogatari will not be announced — The longer they put it off, the more people are going to want it when it does get announced. I’m guessing we won’t get an announcement until the TV series is almost done being animated.

Aniplex/SHAFT continue to release Monogatari in single arcs, rather than in a full season — Clearly, Hanamonogatari being released as a single arc, rather as part of a season, didn’t really hurt Monogatari’s sales. If Aniplex can continue to replicate that kind of sales success, I think they’ll stick with that model to avoid buyer burnout with consecutive volume releases in a shorter period of time.

Love Live! rival group A-RISE will get some sort TV spinoff media (probably a short) — μ’s is the cashcow of the Love Live! franchise, but rival group A-RISE is popular in their own right. With the Love Live! TV series finished and a film on the way, A-RISE remains one of the more untapped sources of revenue left in the franchise.

School Idol Festival mobile game will break 15 million worldwide users — I play the game, so I know: it’s fun.

Funimation will stream more than 20 simulcasting series in a single season (probably summer) — To my chagrin, Funimation seems to be acquiring more and more simulcasts against CR each season. The usually plentiful summer season ought to offer the opportunity for Funi to break the 20 series barrier.

Haikyuu!!’s second season will outsell anything else that airs in the same season — If Haikyuu!! has the firepower to outsell Free! Eternal Summer, it should be able to beat out anything else that airs, especially since Attack on Titan won’t be returning until 2016.

If Haikyuu!! has the firepower to outsell Free! Eternal Summer, it should be able to beat out anything else that airs, especially since Attack on Titan won’t be returning until 2016. Hataraku Maou-sama! will get its much-deserved second season, but it will be with a studio other than White Fox — Might as well keep adding to the wishlist. I know White Fox isn’t Brains Base to be coughing up popular and show that sell well, but this isn’t fun if I don’t add in a few baseless accusations.

2013 didn’t deliver, 2014 also didn’t deliver, but I’m not quitting just yet. 3gatsu anime will happen and anime will be saved. Maybe.

Mizuki Nana x Takanori Nishikawa (T.M Revolution) relationship/marriage confirmed – I’d given up on this too, but then Kouhaku happened and Nana performed next to Takanori wearing a suit that made him look like a fucking Gundam mixed up with Kill la Kill and a bunch of other things. I’m positively sure she’s fallen in love with him now, at least, ’cause how do you resist that? Not to mention Takanori singing Frozen’s Let it Go. The other part’s easy because everyone’s in love with Nana as soon as they’re born, so it’s just a matter of having her return your feelings. And then the ultimate music baby will be born. Hopefully a girl. Who’ll inherit Takanori’s fashion sense. OH GOD.

Mitsuru Adachi’s TOUCH to get TV anime remake/reboot – This year I’ve decided to become one with my dreams, and as such this list will be the ultimate wishlist. With MIX doing good numbers and the recent revival phenomenon going on, TOUCH seems like an amazing candidate for a remake. It’d make money, considering how famous it is, and prepare the stage just right for a MIX anime later on.

Nana Mizuki and Ayahi Takagaki to have a duet in Symphogear S3 – If you don’t watch Symphogear, you’re a bad person who hates fun. But basically, Nana’s character, Tsubasa, used to be part of an idol unit named ‘Zwei Wing’. Her partner was killed, so she’s been going off solo for a while. But now Chris (Ayahi Takagaki) is around and she loves singing, so here’s hoping a new Zwei Wing is born and Nana and Ayahi can bless us with the power of the two best seiyuu anison singers performing together.

Someone give Irie some work because he’s great and I enjoyed Code Breaker due to his involvement, even though the show itself was kinda hilariously bad. Maybe this time around let’s have him work on something good, huh.

ZakuAbumi: 5/9

More Terra Formars anime (S2) – There’s an event scheduled for April and the timing for a continuation might be a great fit with Stardust Crusaders ending. Plus, they gave it a special cliffhanger post-ending segment that could have easily been removed. Here’s me speculating this was planned to get 2 seasons from the very beginning due to the manga’s popularity because the anime’s sales and the little manga boost sure as fuck wouldn’t get us anything

We can’t have nice things after all! Also, now I can be pre-butthurt and feel entitled about it! Apocalypse Alice anime – Probably ~way~ too soon for that and I haven’t seen it rank but kvin’s going to pester me about how my list is cheap otherwise. Takaya titles receiving anime adaptations though isn’t an exception so at least there’s that, although the structure of the novel is severely working against me here.

History goes to show that betting on LN continuations this early in, even with some good sales taken into account, is a rather risky undertaking, but this & Saki have some possibilities and we want to spare kvin from Achiga-hen II and… give him Mahouka instead. Oh, well. Can’t win ’em all!

Funimation overhauls simulcast site so it is a standalone portal – It’s just lacking in several areas. If I was bold enough I’d even go as far as predict a corporate restructure to better focus on streaming side. Unfortunately I’m not sure if that prediction can be verified. The long view is that how FUNi handles those growing pains will largely determine the marketplace for simulcast in the west for the near-to-mid future. The short view was I tried a number of basic things with FUNi’s service, including upgrading and changing billing, and it didn’t work. Their customer service kind of made me run around and I just didn’t have the time or patience for it.

Shoo-in I think…unless AX management implodes.

I guess to make it clear, it’s about announcing. Some projects may be full 3DCG but they don’t say it off the bat? It’s not easy to measure.

Guessing by people’s general reaction to 87, as well as expected works available Original anime projects will increase in 2015. – I think part of it has to do with continuation of original projects, that supplement an expected number of original projects that debut every year. In cases like Fate UBW I don’t really know if you can count it as original or adaptation even if it is on paper an adaptation, given the amount of work the original creator has put into the anime. I think those kinds of projects will increase in number in the next few years.
