I used to hang around in the TWoP thread sometimes (as ryan227) but I missed the end because I've been super busy in the last month.
Reading that post about anime we'll probably never get reminded me of Big Windup!: Summer Tournament Chapter/Ookiku Furikabutte: Natsu no Taikai-hen. The first season was licensed by Funimation and clearly did not sell because they didn't bother with the second season. It's a base ball series based off of a manga by the same author as Saint Young Men and it's just great! It's a big shame that the second season isn't even streaming online and I think that probably has a lot to do with when it came out, if it had been released a few years later I bet it would have at least been on Crunchyroll or something. I've managed to watch the second season so what makes me a lot sadder now is that there will never be a third season. I'd highly recommend watching both seasons, I don't even like sports anime and I haven't even been able to watch much of any other but I blasted through those two seasons.
Another great series that Funimation will never release the second season of is Mushishi but luckily that's been picked up by Aniplex/Crunchy Roll and is easily view-able online. If anyone hasn't seen the first season I highly recommend that and the second season as well. There's supposed to be a third season in the fall but it seems the studio has run in to financial problems.
As for this season there are a ton of shows I'm interested in but because it just started, nothing I can recommend yet. I will say that Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun seems really funny and is probably my favorite of the shows I've watched so far. Also watch out for Terror in Resonance which hasn't started yet but has a Yoko Kanno soundtrack and is directed by Shinichiro Watanabe... ah just like Kids on the Slope which I actually didn't even watch,
