Animation Studio Shaft is Busy

It was announced yesterday that my favorite anime studio, Studio Shaft has started planning Nekomonogatari Black, part of the Monogatari series.  Nekomonogatari takes place in between the events of Kizumonogatari and Bakemonogatari.  It looks like studio shaft will be extremely busy in 2013.  They have a bunch of new things planned and in production that I will discuss below.

Magical Suite Prism Nana

Madoka Magica was extremely successful so not only did shaft plan 3 Madoka movies but they also planned a new Magical Girl anime.  There is no release date yet for the anime but we can expect it sometime in 2013.  I know nothing about the story but at the least the animation looks amazing and I will watch it based of that.

Sasami-san@Ganbaranai

“The story follows a hikikomori named Sasami who is unmotivated about even changing clothes or eating. Her brother takes care of her, even though she despises his slave-like nature. Sasami spends her days viewing the outside world via a “Brother Surveillance Tool” on her computer.  In the outside world, the three beautiful Yagami sisters and Sasami’s brother are in the middle of relationships worthy of a romantic comedy.” (Source MAL)

I’m so sure about this one yet, it could be funny but I want to wait and see.
