Macross Frontier and probably Code Geass top the list of most posted-about new shows on 2channel. Macross is at almost 87,000 posts. The most popular new shows in TV ratings, however, are Blue Dragon 2 and Net Ghost PiPoPa. I'll get to TV ratings later in the article.Unfortunately, it's hard to know the 2channel popularity of Code Geass, since the threads have just continued on from the first series. It is now up to 578,000 posts, overall.Coming after Macross's 87 threads (86,000+ posts), way down at 20 threads, is Zettai Karen Children, which apparently took over Hayate no Gotoku's popularity when it took over its TV timeslot.Kurenai, Soul Eater, and Library Wars follow, at 13 threads each. ToLoveRu has 12.Kamen no Maid Guy is at 8, and Blassreiter and Kanokon are at 7 each. Kyouran Kazoku Nikki has 6, and Nabari no Ou and Wagaya no Oinarisama both have 5.Allison to Lillia and Vampire Knight are at 4, and there is a long list at 3: Golgo 13, Itazura na Kiss, Mnemosyne, Neo-Angelique Abyss, Nijuumensou no Musume, Penguin Musume, and Special A.Chi's Sweet Home and Crystal Blaze are at 2, and Bus Gamer at 1.It's hard for me to tell about XXXHolic 2 and Da Capo 2 SS, since they both may have just continued threads from their first series, as Code Geass seems to have. But I don't have access to the 2channel archives to find out. XXXHolic is at 20 threads and Da Capo 2 SS at 9.This list simply shows how interesting shows are to people who post on 2channel. It is quite diferent from general popularity as represented in TV ratings. For those, check out Siegel Clyne's posts in the "Anime TV Ratings in Japan" thread in the AnimeSuki forum.In TV ratings, family anime like Sazae-san and Chibi Maruko-chan had 18 and 14 percent of the TV audience in their time slots in the week ending April 20. Anime like One Piece, Detective Conan, Gegege no Kitaro, and Naruto were around 6-8 percent.Then there was a group around 5-6 percent: Naruto, Major, Precure, Keroro Gunso. And Gintama was just under 5 percent of the audience.Between 3 and 4 percent came Blue Dragon, Bleach, Shugo Chara and Net Ghost PiPoPa. As far as I can see, Blue Dragon 2 and PiPoPa were the highest-rated new shows.Then, just under 3 percent of the audience, we have a batch of new shows: xxxHolic Kei, Toshokan Sensou, Golgo 13, ToLoveRu, and Code Geass.Between 2 and 2.5 percent were Onegai My Melody Kirara, a rerun of Prince of Tennis, Macross Frontier, Soul Eater, Real Drive, Itazura na Kiss, the late show of Soul Eater, and Zettai Karen Children.Figures are not available for all shows. And some shows will be missing from the 2channel list, as well, since I only took shows that were among the top 100 recently posted about.

     On his way to school our male lead Kouta-kun is greeted warmly by a busty schoolgirl named Chizuru who hugs him warmly and proceeds to rub her best assets all over him, and Kouta-kun gets very embarrassed because this occurs in front of many students. A short while later an upperclassman comes over and gives Kouta-kun [...]

Kouta apparently tires to please everyone much to the demise to his own diet. Chizuru and Nozomu face off in the battle of bento box lunches.

Official site updates for Comic Gum and Comic Alive today provide us with a couple of rare Sunday figure scoops: first is news that the UArt Bladeworx Mogudan Kanu Unchou we've been following for the past month or so will be coming in a limited clear pink version exclusively via mail order from Comic Gum. Details such as price and release date don't appear in this online listing, but they can be assumed to be comparable to her unlimited counterpart. In other news, Comic Alive has announced a Kanokon heroine figure project that will be rolled out with preorders opening one per issue over the next four months. The first one will be a 1/10 scale version of Chizuru, and is available for preorder in the magazine's current issue. This is similar to the promotion they ran last year for Zero no Tsukaima, which produced the only Henrietta and Kirche figures I'm aware of to date; here's hoping this announcement doesn't similarly doom Kanokon's cast to figure obscurity. Images of both newly announced items below:

It’s Fight Night (Morning, Afternoon, etc.) at M3 as we finally begin the attack on the spring season! Ironically enough the first three shows I watched were the three I expected most to make me want to go Oedipus and stab my eyes out, the fanservicey pair of To-Love-Ru and Kanokon, and the BL (Boys’ Love) [...]

In an ongoing competition with Nozomu to win over Kouta's affection, Chizuru goes through a bunch of sealed items and puts on a bunny girl suit, only to find out that she can't take it off because it's cursed.

Bunny girl Chizuru kinda fits her character. But it’s weird to see a fox cosplaying as a bunny girl, really. Who would win though, in a shootdown between Bunny Girl Kallen and Bunny Girl Chizuru?
