The new anime season gets started on Wednesday with Gangsta and Okusama ga Seitou Kaichou.
Gangsta is dark urban action from the director of Ergo Proxy, and features top names like Noto Mamiko, Suwabe Junichi, Koshimizu Ami, and Ishikawa Kaito.
Okusama ga Seitou Kaichou ("My Wife is Student Council President") is an ecchi fantasy starring Taketatsu Ayana. Our straight-laced male hero is defeated in the election for student council president by a new girl who supports free love and distributes condoms...then he arrives home to find that she has moved in as his willing bride, following an agreement between their fathers. (I've recently a post stating this show has ten-minute episodes. No official word.).

New shows are in red, shows that started in various prior seasons are in other colours.
Fridays and Saturdays are shaping up to be the most crowded nights this year, with 13 shows broadcast on Fridays and 14 on Saturdays.
Three of the shows I personally am looking forward to are on Saturday: Charlotte, the new show from PA Works, and two sequels: Gatchaman Crowds Insight, with Ishihara Kaori joining Uchida Maaya in a starring role; and Working!!!, the third series of that entertaining comedy.
But the show I am most hopeful for is on Mondays: the shoujo adventure Akagami no Shirayukihime, starring Hayami Saori as "Red-haired Snow White."
This is a normally full anime schedule, but there are fewer new shows than in some seasons. The difference is made up with a large number of shows continuing from previous seasons. Not just the usual ones, like Gintama, Naruto, Aikatsu!, and Pokemon, but other shows that started in April and that I expected to go just one season, like Ore Monogatari, The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, Denpa Kyoushi, and Kekkai Sensen.
And as I mentioned in my full preview of all the new shows, there are fourteen new shows that are just sequels of previous hits. Check out that preview for details of all the new shows, including pic, trailer, story, cast, staff and some comments.
