Kimi ni Todoke 2nd Season
Given the line up of this season, Kimi ni Todoke is undoubtedly the most anticipated show. Given the cliffhanger it left us with last year, it was only a matter of time before the cat had to come out of the bag. The question remains as to how much of the manga material is actually available to cover. Kimi ni Todoke is a coming of age shoujo series that follows Sawako Kuronuma. Throughout her life she has been seen as a malicious and ghost-resembling character by her peers when she is actually just timid. This led to her nickname Sadako. Now in high school, Sawako meets the most popular guy in her class, Shouta Kazehaya, who decides to help with her timidness. The relationship between the two begins to slowly develop from there. Staff, cast, and animation studios are all expected to remain unchanged. Kimi ni Todoke's second season will premier on January 4, 2011.

Wolverine is the second of four Marvel/Madhouse anime collaboration. The first was the disastrous Iron Man that aired this past fall. The story initially takes place in New York where Logan, or better known as Wolverine, falls in love with Mariko. However, Mariko suddenly disappears and Logan, who suspects that she was kidnapped, heads to Japan to search for her. While the trailer looks great for this show, given the performance of Iron Man, anything can really happen to this show and it's looking pretty grim at the moment. However, the staff is different from Iron Man so maybe it will be for the better. Hiroshi Aoyama is directing. Wolverine premiers on January 7, 2011. This will likely get picked up by G4 for a US release similar to Iron Man. Though expect for it in the latter half of 2011.

Kujo Kazuya is the third son of a Japanese Imperial soldier who transfers to St. Marguerite Academy. At St. Marguerite, he meets Victorique, a mysterious girl who refuses to attend class. Victorique prefers to spend her time looking reading or solving mysteries. Because St. Marguerite is famous for its horror stories and urban legends, and of course Kazuki's nosiness, Victorique and Kazuki often get involved in various mysteries and struggle to solve them. The show begins on January 7, 2011. Animation is by Bones. The show is probably the second most anticipated show, of course after Kimi ni Todoke 2nd season as mentioned earlier.

Bleach Jigoku-hen (Movie)
After a 2 year break, Bleach is back with a 4th movie. The script for this movie is specifically overseen by manga author Tite Kubo. The movie focuses on the "Hell" aspect in Bleach, which was mentioned briefly in the early days of the franchise. It is known that once one is condemned in to hell, there is no way out. Unfortunately, that suddenly changes when various people condemned to hell suddenly escape into the real world begin to wreak havoc. Ichigo's sister, Yuzu is captured by one of the members from hell and now has to enter hell itself to rescue her.

Eventually, Yukiteru befriends the Lord of Time and Space, Deus Ex Machina, who gives Yukiteru's phone the ability to record the events of the future. Little did Yukiteru know, he has been forced into a game where he must now find and kill those with the same "ability" in order to live and become Deus's successor. Whether this short OVA hints at the possibility of a full anime adaptation in the near future now that the source material is complete remains a mystery.

T.P. Sakura: Time Paladin Sakura (OVA)
Time Paladin Sakura is a two part spin-off series of the popular Da Capo franchise. Obviously it will focus on the titular character Sakura Yoshino. Unfortunately for many Da Capo fans, the usual staff and cast will not be reprising their respective roles. Instead, a brand new group will be doing the show. Whether this will be for the better or for the worse depends on how big of a Da Capo fan you are. Personally, I think it's a bad idea....The first OVA episode will be available on January 27, 2011 while the second on February 24, 2011.

Regardless, those who enjoyed the original TV run should be pleased by the new OVA and hope that it will provide a full sequel in the near future.
The fourth and final episode of the Tethe'alla arc in the Tales of Symphonia adaptation. It will likely finish the group's travels in Tethe'alla and make their return to Sylvarant. A third set of OVAs was announced earlier this year and planned for 2011/2012.

The second movie of the popular Macross Frontier series and supposedly a follow-up to the Itsuwari no Utahime/False Diva movie that premiered in 2009. No specific details about the movie has been revealed. However, given the first movie, it may likely be an alternative version of the latter half of the series. The movie is due for premier in Japanese theaters on February 26, 2011. It is unconfirmed as to when the DVD/BD will be available, though it is likely late 2011 or sometime in 2012 at the earliest.
