Funimation’s Spring 2014 Lineup

Rojas is back with FUNimation Show’s Spring Season Breakdown. There’s the usual lot of overdone and stereotypical plots, but I think there might be some promise coming at us from Funimation this Spring Season.     

Among the more interesting are the pencil-shaded “Ping Pong” and the ‘my-cards-have-personalities,’ (and we’re totally doing this just to sell another TCG) card-wielding “WIXOSS.” What look to be a lot less interesting from their previews are  “Dimidaler” (a watered down Eva crossed with a horny-guy trope) and “Assassins” (I mean, seriously… “with boobs?”). “Date Alive’s” second season shows some promise, and “Puchim@s” has an unusual, cutesy animation style that will likely draw in a new audience. 

I’m planning to check out “Selector Infected WIXOSS,” “DragonAr Academy,” and “Soul Eater NOT,” and will be sure to share my thoughts with you here on BigShinyRobot. Honestly, I’m kind of excited to have more Soul Eater back in my life!

You can catch most of Funimation’s programming on their website FOR FREEEEEEE at http://www.funimation.com/videos/episodes! What will you be watching this Spring?
