Update: The official site for Rozen Maiden: Traumend announced that the opening theme will be called Seishoujo Ryouiki and performed by Ali Project. The ending theme is called Hikari no Rasenritsu and will be performed by Kukui.

It looks like the assault to win viewership for the Autumn Anime lineup has been initiated by various networks and anime producers. First thing first, the official site for Rozen Maiden: Traumend now contains a short trailer and a Suiseiseki calendar/wallpaper to promote the new series. The trailer features the dolls in various light-hearted moments although there is an indication of darker plot towards the end of the trailer as "Alice Game" is approaching. I have to say the trailer does a good job of heightening my enthusiasm for the new series. I'm also glad to know that music composer from the first series, Mitsumune Shinkichi, has returned to create all new background songs for the series.

On a similar note, a brand-new official site for Paradise Kiss is finally opened. The site features information on the story, characters, voice actors, and opening theme, which is titled Lonely in Gorgeous. Apparently there will also be a trailer on the site but so far the link has not been activated. Moving on to other series, the official site for Cluster Edge has also been updated to inform that Surface will perform the opening theme for the series titled Fly High. Similarly, the official site for Aria has announced that Makino Yui will perform the opening theme of the series, Undine, while Roundtable feat.Nino will perform the ending theme of the series, Rainbow.

As long as the Truth Crocodile is not jumping Hina like Pochi does Izumi from Kare ga Watashi no Goshujin-sama then I'm okay with it....

Im watching this for the second time (first being 3 days ago), and I still have the same thoughts.

I was really happy that the music was being done by the same person, back when it was posted on ANN, because the first season music was just amazing. This trailer however... I hope is not a preview of traumends OST... I disliked what I heard VERY much.

Other than that major MEH: same characters, same humour, same kind of animation! Bring it on, I cant wait!
