So far Deadman Wonderland seems to be something to watch mostly because it's something new.

I'm much more interested in Casshern Sins the retro look to the animation is awesome, the 2007 Skull Man series was also animated in a similar style and I enjoy the nostalgia factor the style imparts.

I don't like the whole mopey depressing angle though, hopefully it's just part of moving Casshern along rather than an emotional eddy. It's one thing if the woe-is-me bit is simply part of the story and hero/protagonist (Casshern in this case) eventually works past it, I don't mind then as there is a point to it but I've never really liked stories that were bound to a depressed tone.

Skull Man is a great series and very well done, I got a kick out of the pseudo-prequel elements towards the end that lead into Cyborg 009. It'd be cool to see it run on Toonami, I wonder if The Anime Network would be willing to sub-license the show?

Second week in a row Casshern and Deadman got mentioned in the PR. That should be enough to keep advertisers happy.

I see. I don't mind re-runs though. Unless it's something I dislike entirely.
