Least Unwanted Anime of 2008
Here's a quick synopsis of what probably won't suck that much in terms of anime this year.  In ascending order of importance:

Allison to Lillia.  Due to be released April, 2008.  There official site can be located here.  Basically a last exile rip-off.  Why would i be interested in watching it?  hmm... i just have this weird fetish for 30s technology i guess.

Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore de ~They Are My Noble Masters~.  Has a first ep release Jan 5th.  Should prove entertaining... if only for the hordes of attention-starved girls.

Mai Otome 0~S..ifr~.  February 22nd.  The only conceivable reason for me to find myself watching will be because the ten seconds of yuri that existed in Mai Otome coupled with knowing what scenes fan artists are blowing out of proportion on 4 chan.

AA! Megami Sama Tatakau Tsubasa - admittedly already released (though not subbed), but one might as well say it's a 2008 anime.  I have to tip my hat to this one because Oh My Goddess! was my gateway drug for manga/anime.  I really didn't like how they managed to utterly and completely mangle and distort the recent anime beyond all possible recognition from the manga, but i absolutely adored the movie (in fact it is so far the only animated feature that has actually made me cry including grave of the fireflies) and i have hopes for this.

GUNSLINGER GIRL -IL TEATRINO-.  (why do they have to all be in caps?) release date: Jan 7th. I know, i know, it's not yuri.  Strangely enough, i have a lot of fond memories connected with the original anime and its sound track so... i will probably watch this for its nostalgic factor.

Mnemosyne - Mnemosyne no Musume Tachi.  February 2008.  Probably the most yuri, and the most awful anime slated for 2008.  You can bet money i will watch it... If i could sit through Strawberry Panic and Kashimashi i can survive this in the sake of yuri.

And Finally, the 7th and most anticipated (of a very short list) anime event of 2008 is:
ARIA The ORIGINATION.  Jan 7th.  It's... just so damn cute i can't look away.  Plus it lulls me to sleep at night and gives me a false sense of security.  If i could be reborn as anything it would be an undine.  Gorgeous shoujo(-ai) and quiet days on a picturesque horizon.  I could cry.
