I will probably watch this, but its really not something I am that excited to see. The story alone sounds sketchy.

It seems like CR doesn't announce half its new titles until maybe a day or two before they air in Japan. Any speculation about why this is? Do the licensing deals really come so close to the wire? Is it an intentional marketing strategy? What?

Been anticipating this one since it was first hinted at a few months ago. Even started reading the manga just to have the background idea of it.

WTB fairly close manga following without any unnecessary fanservice thrown in. The story itself seemed pretty decent. But it could VERY easily be soiled by too much T&A (think the latter half of Kampfer, compared to its first couple episodes).

Oh boy, super excited about this one. They're easily the best animation studio around. Not to say that the actual material is anything good either.

Yeesh. At first I was semi-interested, but after seeing that trailer, I think I'll pass. Wake me when they stream Durarara!! and Sora no Woto.

"Omamori Himari will be available in the United States, Canada, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, and the United Arab Emirates"

Seriously, isn't it about time they started charging us less since we can access less of the content?

I don't quite understand how the hell they license it in countries I've never heard the name of, but not in the one I'm actually living at, which is rather known.

I spoke too soon - in this one instance they are forgiven, from Rob Pereyda on Twitter: "Good news! We begged and were able to get a few more territories for Omamori Himari! UK, Ireland, and Brazil are coming soon!"
