There were some really good surprises on that satisfaction list. Do you agree with that?  I already watched Nyan Koi and Kimi ni Todoke and They were good. Any predictions on satisfaction for the Autumn?

    Only fall season one ive seen so far is railgun but really enjoyed and will probably go and watch its parent, the rest of shows havent really grabbed my interest. Have a couple more possible contenders ready to watch.

    I must be the only one dissapointed by Fullmetal and preffered the original. My faves of last season were mazinger, cross game, Valkyria, Dragonball and tokyo magnitude 8. Souten Kouro also recieves nomination for visuals if not the script.

    The parent of railgun is, while rather enjoyable, could have been much better. Mainly, imho, as it lacks a consistent plot and it not being tied up at all. I had high hopes that this new series would continue where the old one left off, but alas it’s only a sidestory (have to start watching it yet to be honest).
