Sket Dance premieres 6 September 2012, Thursday, 10pm WIB (UTC+7), on Animax Asia and airs weekdays thereafter. It replaces Baka & Test - Summon the Beasts Season 2.

Sket Dance follows the adventures of Kaimei High School's campus support club – Sket Dan. With Bossun as the leader and founder, Himeko as the club's muscle and Switch as the club's secretary, the trio band together to help solve any & all problems submitted by the staff or student body. No matter what your problems may be, they will do their best to help you. But as many requests pour in, will the three be able to solve them all?
–Animax' synopsis

So Sket Dan is essentially a do-gooding club that accepts any commission — be it monkey custody or all-you-can-eat contests, even criminal investigation. What does TV Tropes have to say about the series full of Shout Outs to any popular manga you can imagine with hilarious lampshades over each and every of them?

Over all, it's random, fourth wall-breaking, random, funny, random and absolutely adorable.

Bleach anime Season 3 premieres 22 August 2012, Wednesday, 630PM WIB, on Animax Asia and airs weekdays thereafter. It replaces Beelzebub (Part 2).

Animax' Bleach Season 3 corresponds to the sixth anime season, the Arrancar: The Arrival arc. Arrancar, taken from the Spanish for ‘To Tear Off’ are mask-less Hollows with combat skills and powers that mirror those of Soul Reapers, making them essentially Shinigami-Hollow Hybrids. Especially powerful Arrancars were assigned ten numbers by [Shinigami captain turned traitor] Sōsuke Aizen and came to be known as the Espada. [From Bleach Wiki]

What does the impending Shinigami-Arrancar war bode for our hero Ichigo who has reopened his Substitute Soul Reaper business back in Karakura-chou? For one, the invasion of his hometown supplies Ichigo the motivation to conquer his inner hollow, with the help of the Visored, former Shinigami who have acquired Hollow powers.

Shinigami-like Hollows, Hollow-like Shinigami. That takes care of the lowdown. Imma fangirl Ulquiorra-sama~♡.
