I wasn't expecting much from the Noitamina block but wow I'm really interested in a good chunk of the shows this year.
I think I'll pass on Kids on the Slope though. As a band nerd and someone who played trumpet in a jazz band for almost two years I'm going to nit-pick at the show instead of enjoying it. Tsuritama looks interesting though. I loved Trapeze and C so hopefully it has the same style to it. Robotics;Notes, I knew this was going to happen. It was stated in an interview last year that 5pb was making the VN with the idea of it being viewed by anime fans. So everyone would be interested in the series and not just VN readers. Still I'm really looking foreword to it given that it's set 9 years after the true ending for S;G. I hope they at least mention the S;G cast. Psycho-pass from the little sum up I saw it seems like it's going to be kinda like C. Only with emotion and happiness instead of money. |

Kids on the Slope looks awesome. Totally looking forward to that.
Tsuritama looks odd. Not sure what it'll be like. I never watched the first Moyashimon so I doubt I'll watch the sequel. Natsuyki Rendezvous...eh, who knows. I find it pretty tough to judge a show like that on a trailer. If nothing else it will be something different. You don't see a lot of Josei anime. Plus, the animation director from Madoka Robotics;Notes looks like it will be full of all the same otaku BS that marred Steins;Gate. Then again, Steins;Gate was actually still decent despite this so it could be worse. Psycho-Pass is obviously super preliminary so there's nothing to be said about it right now. |

Of all the promos streamed, Kids On The Slope is the series I'm looking forward to the most. The animation for the drum play looked pretty good and I'm a fan of Yoko Kanno's work. Robotic;Notes held my interest for the storyline. After viewing the promo, though, not so much anymore. Think it was the design for the robot that was a bit of a turn-off. I'll still give it a chance, but my hopes aren't as high. Though it was simple, the promo for Psycho-pass has me intrigued.

So everyone wondering if noitaminA wasn't being noitaminA-y enough, there you go!

Robotics;Notes is pretty much the only thing I'm looking forward to in the noitamina block this year. What's interesting about R;N is the main character you play is a fighting game fanatic. I wonder how the hell that interest will play out in the story (You build mechs for rock'em sock'em robots?) |

No, I'll admit I didn't read descriptions for all of the series listed. Partly my reaction came from watching the trailers. I'll keep an eye out for the show you mentioned.
The drumming animation caught my eye as well. I was quite impressed with the performance animations in Nodame Cantabile; this drum piece was the best I've seen since then. |

Psycho-Pass is Megatron. The original one. 
Sounds almost like Maison Ikkoku, except the ghost there was in the girl's heart.
That's how we are with sports anime!
There's so much overlap among VN readers and anime fans that I think a distinction is unnecessary.
Real Steel!

I'm a bit sad that they didn't do another one like No. 6. |

The psycho pass "trailer" is weak because it's a teaser, not a full trailer.

Sakamichi no Apollon (Kids on the Slope) is another, award winning, josei title. So, it is aimed at adults despite the main cast still attending high school. Part of the cast are university students, though. Anyway, you might want to give it a try. Overall this year looks much better for noitamina than the last one, for now (Fractale and AnoHana also did look good at first and both ended up being big disappointments for me). |
