Weekend News Catch-up: New Anime Everywhere

The Code Geass front page image, this is for the holiday event and not the new project.

Warning: new Code Geass may not contain any of these characters.

This weekend, I spent my time testing out new combos in Baldr Sky Dive2 and watching football. The anime world, however, was busy trying to make up for a relatively light anime slate in this winter season by announcing 2010 anime in bunches.

This weekend brought us a bunch of announcements:

- A new Code Geass multimedia project, crossing anime, manga, music, and more.

- Yojou-han Shinwa Taikei, an adaptation of a college-life novel by Morimi Tomihiko.

- Giant Killing, a soccer manga getting an anime adaptation in time for the World Cup.

- Yondemasu, Azazel-san, a story about a magical detective and the demons he enlists to solve mysteries.

- Shinrei Tantei Yakumo, another supernatural detective story, with ghosts instead of demons.

- Starry Sky, yet another “turn inanimate objects into impossibly pretty boys” project a la Hetalia and Miracle Train.

- Moyashimon, the live action drama (yes, really).

Most of these won’t come around until Summer 2010 at least, with a few of these projects designated for Fall 2010, so barely any details are out about these projects. The Code Geass announcement is a bit more immediate and contains more details than the rest of these, so I’ll cover it later today.
