Welcome to the Winter 2008-2009 Anime Preview, where once again, members of CR come together to help bring you this list so that you know what's coming out. This list was compiled in the Winter 2008-2009 Anime Group Forums. Special thanks to Anime News Network and My Anime List for providing the pictures, ImageShack and TinyPic for their wonderful hosting, MyAnimeList, The Fansub Wiki, MOONPHASE, THAT Anime Blog, and Moetron.
What's new this time around?
Series have also been organized into the Winter 2008-2009 Anime Group Pages - Click Here to view them!
Note: This thread will be updated as more information is released. If you have any new info, PM me and I'll edit it in. Series without previews means that they have not been released or uploaded as of yet. Click the ANN links for better series descriptions if they are available.
2nd Note: Several series were deliberately left out of this preview due to the PG-13 content rule of CR. Go get your hentai elsewhere!
A message from Suicider
Well, where to start. This preview came out later than I originally expected (2 weeks overdue), but nonetheless it was completed without THAT much delay...  If you haven't heard by now, Crunchyroll is undergoing several changes, changes that'll affect the site and the users that log onto it everyday. Starting in Jan, 2009, CR will be hosting several anime series of which you can view the day after they release with subtitles for a nominal fee. Regular users will then be able to view them for free afterwards. What may really worry other people is what's going to happen on that same day: "Crunchyroll will stop accepting user-submitted videos and other content from individuals, and only host videos approved by copyright holders." Crunchyroll has always been a place to share one's thoughts and feelings, whether it's through the forums, chats or even the videos themselves. Although the videos may be gone, the users will still remain, and that's what truly defines Crunchyroll. I'd also like to say that this will be the last anime preview that I'll be leading. It's time for the next generation to take the reigns. Happy Holidays and Have a Happy New Year! See you next Deculture!

The work recounts the life of a son of a Japanese emperor, known to readers as Hikaru Genji, or “Shining Genji”. Neither appellation is his actual name: Genji is simply another way to read the Chinese characters for the real-life Minamoto clan, to which Genji was made to belong. For political reasons, Genji is relegated to commoner status (by being given the surname Minamoto) and begins a career as an imperial officer. The tale concentrates on Genji’s romantic life and describes the customs of the aristocratic society of the time.
