Recommendations of good, recent anime, please?
I’m sorry, I haven’t watched any anime for the past three months. That will change quite soon, but I spend the only free time I have on one Korean drama, primarily because I’m so attracted to the leading lady. It’s pathetic, I know. Recently I’ve taken a bit of time writing up short stories during lulls of our duties, and I recently finished one. I know I’m a travesty right now because I call my site anime|otaku and don’t even update on anime, but give me time. It’s not that I don’t want to watch anime, it’s that I just don’t have the time to be able to marathon or pour myself into a series, as much as I want to.
No wonder why I’m in the Friend Zone. 
Are there any recent series that I may like? I’m curious because I have plans finishing Hyouka, and then I have ABSOLUTELY no idea about what series to watch. I finally finished downloading all of Sakamichi no Apollon, but the great anime this year is a blank slate to me. If there are good, potent romances, please let me know. The only recent anime I’ve downloaded is Robotics;Notes, because I read on the Steins;Gate page that it was an offshoot. That was that.
If you guys could help me with your recommendations, please do so. Within three weeks I’ll probably update more frequently. 
This is my latest short story, by the way. If you guys have some time to waste, I hope you can read and review this short story here. I’m sure there are problems with it, but hey, it’s just for fun.

I think Shin Sekai Yori could please you as ambitious SF series.
Also Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun is a good adaptation of shoujo manga directed by Kimi ni Todoke’s director.

definitely Shin Sekai Yori. It’s the first series that has managed to intrigue me in a long time.

review HxH 2011, one of the best shows this year.

Of special note is the manliest series this year, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun and Sukitte Iinayo, two shows with similar synopses, both are shoujo manga adaptations, and while Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun is being directed by the director of Kimi ni Todoke, Sukitte Iinayo’s story so far has a lot more in common with the story of Kimi ni Todoke.
For you in particular, I would definitely have to recommend Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita, or in English, Humanity Has Declined. It 13 episodes, premiered last season, and it’s the kind of series I could see you enjoying.

Among some of the new anime, I recommend Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo. Beautiful animation that reminds me of Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. I also recommend Sword Art Online.

I’ve only just stepped onto your blog, so I’m sorry if you’ve already watched/posted about this, but Tsuritama was pretty good (as is Uchyuu Kyoudai, etc, etc)

No use asking me as I have 2 jobs at the moment, so I’m working 18 hours a day. I’m just about managing to keep up with Shin Sekai Yori, but I’ve only scratched the surface of the rest of the season so far. I’m wondering whether Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun might shape up as a good romance, but as I’ve only watched the first episode so far, it’s too early to tell yet.

Hey, Angelus.
Missed you, sir! Don’t worry, I have 36-hour duties. I feel your pain. It’s tiring as hell. I don’t even know why I’m becoming a doctor in the first place hahaha.

Although the romance isn’t the main plot, Hyouka is a must-watch
Seriously.
It’s my favorite of 2012, and of course, nobody can argue with my taste…

Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai is ABSOLUTELY the best anime I’ve seen this season so far. I wish it wouldn’t end after a mere 12 episodes….it should go on for 72,76 episodes, like Marmalade Boy did….so I could cry myself to sleep for the next 2-3 years.
Seriously though, Chuu 2 is one of the sweetest shows I’ve seen in a long time. Absolutely love it!!
