Anime Of The Month For August/September 2011 Was....
Spoiler:
Steins;Gate
Welcome to C-W's anime of the month!
First off, this will be on-going subbed anime only, the reason for that is because Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and anything else which has been around since before 09-10 will NOT be on this list and the only true on-going dubbed anime are Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon & Yu-Gi-Oh.
Please don't complain about this, the reason it was decided that these animes would not be involved is because they have too large of a fanbase and would constantly be winning the competition which would be unfair to other series.
Anyway onto voting! The voting is simple, every month I will give you a list of on-going animes and you guys will vote for your favourite! This anime will then be dubbed C-Ws anime of the month for the following month! See, I told you it was simple! ;D
To make things a bit fairer and steadier there's only going to be 15 anime each month, and the anime which wins will not be in the following months poll!
I bet your dying to vote now eh? So here's your choices this month! If you've not seen these anime before don't fret! You can vote for which ever anime you feel sounds the best, just open the spoiler underneath the animes name for a summary + the opening =]
All credit for this idea and post goes to RawrCarrotCake. All problems with this post please comment of PM myself. Thanks all and make your choices!

14. Shinryaku!? Ika Musume

Or that's what she would do, if she could just stop getting distracted by squidding movies, reading squidly manga, and making friends as only a squid could make them. Squid Girl must overcome not only danger found at every turn, but her own squidly good nature as well.
15. Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai
Spoiler:
Hasegawa Kodaka has transferred schools, and he's having a hard time making friends. It doesn't help that his blond hair tends to make people think he's a delinquent. One day, he runs into his bad-tempered solitary classmate Yozora while she's talking animatedly to her imaginary friend Tomo. Realizing that neither of them have any actual friends, they decide that the best way to alter this situation is to form a club and start recruiting.
That is how "Rinjinbu", The Neighbours' Club, was formed, a club specifically designed for people who don't have very many friends. As other lonely classmates slowly join their little club, they'll try to learn how to build friendships through cooking together, playing games, and other group activities. But will this group of relationship-challenged misfits really be able to get along?
My top 3 choices are Chihayafuru, Kimi to Boku (which isn't on the list) and Mirai Nikki. Since Kimi to Boku isn't on the list I'll give my third vote to Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai. I Would have given it to Guilty Crown but so far it sucks...
Its an informative topic. It help me very much to solve some problems. Its opportunity are so fantastic and working style so speedy. I think it may be help all of you. Thanks.
