Episodes: 12 Translated name: Aria of the Scarlet Ammo. Plot Summary: The story takes place in Tokyo Butei High School, a special school where armed detectives — "Butei" — are trained to use weapons. Kinji Tooyama is a second-year-student who has a special ability, but he keeps it a secret to maintain an ordinary, peaceful life. However, when he gets caught in a bombing on the way to school, he encounters H. Aria Kanzaki, the most powerful S-Rank Butei student in Assault Studies. ~ My thoughts: Well, I've seen the last episode and wow. This anime is made by the same people who bought us Toradora, Zero no Tsukaima and Shakugan no Shana. The main female, Aria, is again a lookalike of: Taiga, Louise and Shana has a similar personality and is voiced by the same Seiyuu, the legendary Tsundere Queen, Rie Kugimiya. Anyway, this anime was awesome to watch. I think we are pretty much guaranteed a second season, especially if you consider how past series such as Zero and Shana have gone before. Out of the Spring Line up for 2011, Hidan no Aria, other than AnoHana (which is a very different anime), and another called Hanasaku Iroha, has been my favourite series of the lot. (Summer line up is starting now too!) XD I recommend this to fans of Tsundere, Rie Kugimiya, and to those who enjoyed the previous works of Zero no Tsukaima and Shakugan no Shana and other such anime. Even if you don't fit those categories, I still suggest you give it a go. :D And now, as always when I make one of these threads. I'll ask for the thoughts and opinions of others who have watched/are watching the series. So... go ahead. ¦3
