The anime season of fall 2009 (part I)

1 August 2009 by Andrei 2 Comments

So, the time of falling leafs and school is closing by. After a very poor anime summer season, lets see what the coming of fall has to offer in terms of anime. I can see some interesting anime coming by, but again nothing special. I miss that season with Claymore and Heroic Age. That was a good season. The anime presented next are in a totally random order. Only the TV series for now.

Armed Librarians: Book of Bantorra


It is a world where people transform into books after death and they are stored in the Bantora Library. So everyone who read a book can find all about the lives of those dead people. The Library of Bantorra is kept and defended by Librarians who have psychic powers. The mortal enemy of the Librarians is a religious sect called Sindeki Kyoudan. Very interesting. Plus, I see a katana in the pic. And boobs^^

The Sacred Blacksmith

the sacred blacksmith

Long time ago, in a long war, an evil power was used to gain victory. The power of the devils. But the war ended, peace came and the devils were banned. Here comes a knight, Cecily Campbell, who is searching for a blacksmith to repair her sword. But soon she encounters a man named Luke, who proves to be a blacksmith! Woah! Sounds like one of those light fantasy anime that are being produced with the thousands. You know, the ones in which every character has a class, like knight, priest etc… and they win every fight with a smile on their faces and no one ever dies? I will pass on this one.
