Every Spring 2009 anime has aired (though not necessarily finished airing), and while I definitely fell behind on/completely stopped blogging about them, I still have been watching many of the shows. Here’s a quick list of what I saw, what I liked, as well as some links to episodes blogged about.
In no particular order:
Tears to Tiara – Ended up giving up on this show after a few episodes. It had a fairly slow pace and just wasn’t very original.
Dragon Ball Kai – Just before this began airing, I had re-watched the first 26 episodes or so of Dragon Ball Z, so I’ve been checking each of the DBK episodes to see where they’re at, but so far they’re not at a point where I’m really wanting to watch. Plus I can’t get over the Japanese voices, having grown up with the English dub.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - Probably one of the only shows I’ve been watching every week (i.e. not falling behind then catching up). Great show.
Eden of the East – I’ve been “watching” this show, but fell behind on it, even though it’s easily one of the best shows of Spring 2009.
K-ON! – I fell behind on this show and I don’t really regret it. I’ll probably watch the rest of the episodes eventually, but I’m not losing sleep over it.
Pandora Hearts – I heard that this show got better after the first episode, but even if it did, I doubt it became a show I would watch.
Shangri-La – After the first episode, I decided not to watch this. It was “interesting,” I suppose, but I couldn’t see myself ever enjoying it.
Charady’s Daily Joke - Since they’re so short, I’ve been watching episodes of this when I get the chance.
Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica Crimson S – The name was too long so I didn’t watch it. Just kidding, it just sucked.
Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom – Fell behind on this show and eventually gave up on it due to lack of interest. Maybe some day, once I’ve watched everything else I want to watch (read: never), I’ll watch it.
Basquash! - Good show that I’ve been watching from time to time. I’ll probably continue to blog it.
Chi’s New Address – I’ve been watching this one as soon as the episodes come out. Cutest show ever, though maybe not quite as good as season 1.
Sengoku Basara - Another show that’s really, really good. I’ve fallen behind on it, but it’s a great show I’ll definitely finish watching.
Ristorante Paradiso – A decent show. I’ve been watching the episodes on fast-forward, as it’s slow-paced enough that you can still follow it at twice the speed. Makes for nice 10-minute episodes that are just “nice to watch.”
Cross Game – Another show I’ve been watching as soon as I can. It’s about baseball, and it’s just a really good show. Plus I love the opening song (Summer Rain by Kobukuro).
07-Ghost – Watched a few episodes and decided to give it a miss.
Souten Kouro – Okay show, but I’m not watching it.
Hanasakeiru Seishounen – Watched the first episode, but none after that.
Valkyria Chronicles – I still haven’t decided whether I like this show or not. It’s good, I guess.

I suggest that you revisit and keep up with Phantom one of the better shows of the season, Tears started off great then just slowly died down and FMA is going strong as well. Summer season keeping my eyes on Canaan atm nothing much else that has grabbed me. Oh a few shows that you dont have listed Guin Saga started off strong but same problem with T3 slows down and Hayate S2 fun stuff would recommend it if you saw the first season.
