Action and Fantasy seems to have an important role, we can see that Fate/Zero has become a favorite. Also, new shows like Medaka Box, where the new Student Council President decides to establish a box where students will be able submit their daily problems. Or Zetman, where a kid with an angel mark on his hand will see how his peaceful life crumbles as a monster appears to kill everyone in front of him.
