Shiro Hamaguchi is doing Shirobako. Active Planets is doing Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai.

My main interest this season will be Kanno's Gundam which sounds really great from the lengthy preview that was posted recently. This is a classic mecha score: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x23...eview_creation

And then there's another mecha, Cross Ange, with Akiko Shikata as the composer. I like her work very much but still think she's an odd choice for this project. Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw1sJFpK2mo

So disappointed about Nanatsu no Taizai. A shounen fantasy adventure series and they put Sawano in charge of the music. His style doesn't fit that genre at all and you can bet that he's not going to do anything different from his normal junk.

I think Murai is an interesting choice for Terraformars. The PV makes it seem like the music will be mostly rock but I hear a bit of orchestra too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=PWc7aVFe2sY

Fukasawa taking over Fate was something I was expecting and it's a good move on Aniplex's part. I think he's a better fit for the series than Kajiura. And most of Kajiura's work as of late hasn't been very inspired, anyways.

Lastly, I'm excited to see Ryo Kunihiko is back to scoring anime for Akatsuki no Yona. It's been a while since Letter Bee and it's good to see him returning for another fantasy adventure series.
