Are there any good Japanese cartoons recently? It's best to have an introduction. . . .

(I don’t know what the scope of “recently” is, so what I wrote is from this year~~)

New program in April:

1. Daily life (This is a relatively cold comedy-oriented work, which may not be suitable for ordinary people, but it must be a high-quality product produced in Kyoto~ Anyway, it is still good)

Introduction: "Everyday" is written by あらゐけいいち in 06 A comedy comic published in "Monthly Shōnen Ace" in 2007 and serialized in "Comptiq" in 2007. In contrast to her name, "Everyday" is a comedy-oriented work that is not ordinary at all. The protagonist of the story, the robot? Togumo Minano, has always longed to be an ordinary girl, but feels inferior because of the clockwork on her back. After randomly transforming an 8-year-old loli who calls herself a doctor, she feels helpless every time. The distance from "ordinary girls" is getting farther and farther. In addition to Dr. Loli, the story also has many non-daily characters, such as a 20-year-old black cat who wears a collar made by the doctor and can talk, a lively and naturally stupid girl, a fujoshi who is good at painting, and a black-haired girl with glasses. , who looks like a bad boy but is actually a well-behaved boy, a man with an afro who loves mochi, a drama club president who will not die even if he is hit by a gun or a rocket launcher, etc.

2. Hanasaki Kasaki (there are too many translations, such as Hanakai Iroha and Hanakai Monogatari... This is a work commemorating the 10th anniversary of P.A.WORKS. The picture quality is superb! Healing + Youth)

Introduction: A sudden night escape, a sudden confession, and then a sudden separation——

The dream that I have always wanted to become a different self, Suddenly it became true.

I, Matsumae Oka's ordinary daily life unexpectedly ushered in an astonishing development like a TV series in one day.

I will leave this familiar but emotionless city and go to live in my grandmother’s house, which I have never met before.

There is a hot spring hotel full of Taisho romantic flavor - Xicuiso.

Met a lot of people there.

Just like a flower bud breaking through the ground and entering a new world, I started a new life that was completely different from the past.

There may also be very uncomfortable times.

But no matter what happens, tomorrow will still come.

So I have to work hard and shine with all my strength.

I want to be like a flower that blooms under the guidance of the sun, and one day my beautiful flower disk will bloom——

3.Steins;Gate Steins;Gate (5pb. An animated adaptation of a popular game released, science fiction)

Introduction: One year after the Shibuya collapse, the news that an artificial satellite fell on the roof of the Akihabara RADIO Hall building made a lot of noise. .

The captain of the "Future Invention Research Institute", a three-person invention team based in Akihabara, Rintaro Okabe, a college student who cannot cure his second childhood disease, and his partners repeat the development of weird inventions all day long. On July 28, 2010, in order to obtain credits, Okabe went to the lecture venue with his friend Yu Hashida of the same grade. There, they met Makise Kurenai, a talented girl who successfully published a paper in an American science magazine at the age of 18. Lisu. However, the strange thing is that Okabe just witnessed Makise fainting in a pool of blood on the 8th floor of the RADIO Hall a few hours ago. What’s even more puzzling is that all this was clearly recorded in the text message sent to Hashida a week ago.

In the end, Okabe found out that one of the mobile phone devices they invented accidentally had the function of sending text messages to the past, which was similar to a time machine. At this time, Okabe never even thought that this accidental invention would become the key to the future of the world. The great invention of the century was born...

4. あの日见た花の名前を PUDA はまだ知らない (translated as "The name of the flower has not been heard, we still don't know the name of the flower we saw that day, etc... Highly recommended!!! Super healing + tear-jerking~~")

Introduction: Production The company Aniplex, Japan's Fuji TV and animation production company A-1 Pictures will join forces to create a completely original animation work, tentatively titled "That Flower (あのはな)", with Chaohei and Busters as the original creators.

A-1 Pictures, which has produced such works as the "Ace Player" series, "Black Butler" series, "God's Shave" and "The Restaurant", has always produced animations that surprise people, and this time Cooperating with the parent company Aniplex and Fuji TV again is a very exciting combination, and the production team they hired is also very surprising. As the supervisor who monitors the viewpoint of the entire work, Ryuyuki Nagai, who once made the spin-off work "Science Railgun" even more beautiful than the main story, will be in charge. As for Mari Okada, who is responsible for the script, I believe everyone will feel very relieved when they see her name. After all, many touching and satisfying works were born from her scripts, such as the "Black Butler" series, "true tears", "CANAAN" and "Combat Secretary" etc. As for the character design, it is also confirmed that Masaga Tanaka, who has rich experience in painting, will be in charge. The character design of the completed "Katetsu Hitman Reborn" and "School Apocalypse" are both written by him. Of course, his ability is of a certain level. . In fact, the most surprising thing about this production team is that the three of them are the ones who created the production lineup of "Dragon and Tiger Fight". This time they can come together again to produce "That Flower", which is really something everyone is looking forward to!

The story is about six good friends who used to play together as children. When they realized it, their relationship became estranged because they each entered high school. But one day, although all kinds of things are changing, the only heroine who remains unchanged? Honma Meiko suddenly appears in front of the protagonist Sukai Jinta who has become like a hidden youth. Although Meiko said that she would achieve success for Jinta However, when Renta also went to understand her wish, he found that her wish was just to reunite her old childhood playmates... Now the playmates who have scattered their things include Naruko Anjo, who exudes the aura of a hot girl, Matsuyuki Shu and Tsurumi Chiriko, who entered a school with the goal of going to university, and Hisakawa Tetsudo, who gave up studying in high school and is now traveling around. I don’t know how you feel about such a story, but I believe many people can relate to it. The story of "that flower" can't help but remind people of their good friends in the past. Where are they now? If we meet again, can we, who are already living in different fields, be as good as before?

5.[C] ([ C ] THE MONEY OF SOUL AND POSSIBILITY CONTROL) (Few people may have watched this film, but it is also very good. The combat moves are all economic terms, and Raising the question of "Which is more important, the present or the future?", the most important thing is to have the sense of déjà vu of Madoka Magica (Hey!))

Introduction: Because he directed "Weird~ayakashi~" Kenji Nakamura, who is well-known for his work with "Monster", and later supervised "Monster" which became very popular. He is also known as a supervising genius. Since October last year, he has supervised "Sky Swing" on Fuji TV's noitaminA channel. , will once again personally supervise the original animation "C" on the noitaminA channel, and will be broadcast on the late night slot in April 2011 as noitaminA's original TV animation. Under the leadership of Kenji Nakamura, Noboru Takagi, who created the series composition and script of "Hellless Horseman" and "Wine of Eternal Life", and was responsible for the illustrations of the light novel "Sugar Dark", co-produced "B ★RS" and "Cencoroll" animation characters mebae and other talented team created this original animation.

Everyone knows what money is, but for you, how clear is the power of money? The story stage of "C" is set in 20XX. Japan is suffering from a serious and huge fiscal deficit. It can be said that Japan's economy has collapsed and is in the final stage of crisis. However, a government-affiliated financial institution called the "Sovereign Wealth Fund" emerged. By successfully using government funds, the government was able to miraculously rebuild its finances. But on the other hand, although the Japanese economy can get out of the bottom, during this period of recovery, there are long-term employment problems, indiscriminate killings caused by unemployed people and people who give up on themselves, and people who feel desperate because of the declining marriage rate and the declining birth rate, and they are escaping from reality. The number of people, missing persons and suicides is increasing sharply... To put it simply, the atmosphere at that time made people feel very uneasy and worried.

And one day, the protagonist, Yuga Koumaro, a college student studying in the Faculty of Economics in Tokyo, appeared in front of him a strange man, Managi, and asked Koumaro, "If you mortgage your future and lend you money, How will you use your talents to use this money?” Just like that, Koumaro's world changed greatly from that day on.

Rather than simply imitating the real world of money, "C" will add elements of fantasy and depict the power of money in a fantasy world that everyone can't imagine. Among the new series in April this year, this is also an original work with considerable strength.

6. Denpa Girl and Young Man (supervised by Akiyuki Shinbo, in short, very Denpa==)

Introduction: Popular due to the excellent work "Liar Boy and Broken Girl" And more and more people are familiar with the light novel writer Iruma. His slightly gloomy writing style in "Liar Boy and Bad Girl" has brought everyone a second youth novel with a completely different style. Radio work "Radio Girl and Young Man". As the second work of Iruma Renjian, "Denpa Girl and Youth Boy" is very different from the previous work. The style is completely a youth comedy with splashes of radio waves. The story tells the story of Niwa Makoto, a high school sophomore who boarded in the countryside and transferred to the prosperous Tokyo. , he was very much looking forward to a perfect new life, and planned to reverse the deficit of "youth points" here, but his hopeful thoughts had cracks as soon as he entered his aunt's house - because it was really next to the entrance. , saw the "rolled" thing on the ground... quilt? Denwa Mito and Elio, who tied their upper bodies tightly with quilts, turned out to be their cousins! ? When Zhen and Elliot lived together, they discovered that she was undoubtedly a radio woman who talked about aliens and cosmic radio waves! As a result, this young man's "Youth Points" plan was gradually exhausted by the radio wave girl.

Such a joyful work will be released in April 2011. The animation will be produced by SHAFT. Akiyuki Shinbo, who is famous for his super poisonous radio waves, will follow the success of "Bake Monogatari" and "Arakawa Comedy Crew" After that, I once again got involved in this seat that is also full of radio frequency. Xinfang, who has extensive experience in radio works, certainly knows how to carry forward the radio waves of "Electronic Girls and Young Men", so everyone should be prepared to receive the poisonous radio waves splashing across the airwaves in April next year. Ayana Yukiko, who is responsible for the composition of the series, can be regarded as an absolute newcomer. As an active female college student, she has previously appeared in "Blue Flower", "Dragon Tower" and the currently playing "Dream Eater". She is responsible for scripting one or two episodes, and this is her first official debut as a series. Of course, we expect that she will surprise us, and we hope that she will not be taught bad things in her new house.

8. If Dora (Full name: If the female manager of high school baseball has read Drucker's "Management") (the best-selling book of the year in Japan (this is a business novel, not a light novel) The novel) is adapted into animation.

We rebuilt the baseball club step by step and led the team towards Koshien. At first glance, management and the baseball club itself aiming at Koshien are unrelated, but in Iwasaki Natsumi's writing, the two things are linked, and under the packaging of a high school girl's sailor uniform, It even set off a craze in Japan.
