The February issue of Shogakukan's Ciao magazine, which will ship on Monday but was previewed early on Japanese television, will announce that Tomoko Nishimura's Gokujō!! Mecha Mote Iinchō (The Best!! Extremely Cool Student Council President) shōjo manga has been green-lit for an anime adaptation. In the story, Mimi Kitagami is a kind, level-headed girl who aims to be the best, coolest student council president of her high school class.

Shin Mazinger Shougeki! Z-Hen (Z Mazinger)
Synopsis
A 26 Episode anime production by Bee Media and CODE and directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa (Giant Robo, Bartender, G Gundam), it is based on Go Nagai's long-running and influential mecha series, the Mazinger series.
Developed from Japanium ore is the super energy, Photon Power. Seeking this energy is Dr. Hell, a madman craving world domination who along with his subordinates Baron Ashura and Count Brocken, commands the Machine Beasts excavated from Bardos Island (believed to be Rhodes) to attack the Photon Power Lab and take it for himself. Meeting the attack head on is our hero, the hot-blooded teenager Kouji Kabuto who pilots the super robot Mazinger Z, constructed by his grandfather Juzo and made from the strongest metal Chogokin Z. But in this battle between Dr. Hell and the Kabuto family, many legends surrounding the Mycenaean Civilization and Bardos Island, as well as the secrets of Mazinger Z remain shrouded in mystery.
While the premise is similar to the original TV show, the staff insist that it is not a remake or sequel and that it will develop into an all-new story, as seen in the cast of characters which features many new faces. There is also a significant number of characters and mecha from other Go Nagai series, such as Zeus from Z Mazinger and the titular mecha of Groizer X.

Alchemy, also known as Equivalent Exchange, works under the principle of understanding the foundations of the world, remaking them into something else, equal in cost. Some call it science, some magic, some believe it to be miracles. However as powerful as it is, Alchemy still has boundaries one must not cross.
Having lost their mother, the Elric brothers have violated the biggest taboo - "The Human Transmutation". As a result, the younger brother, Alphonse, lost his entire body, his soul now bound to a huge armor suit. The older brother, Edward, lost his arm and leg, now having them replaced with mechanical prosthetics - Automail.
Having nothing to lose, wishing to regain what they lost due to their sins, the brothers, one of them now bearing the title "Fullmetal" and National Alchemist title, set out to find the mythical Philosophers Stone, rumored to destroy the boundaries Alchemy has. However the road they chose is neither short nor easy, thanks to the existence of mysterious forces, working behind the scenes.
Conspiracy behind the scenes, the powerful wish for revenge from those oppressed long ago, the echoes of tragedies caused by alchemy - all those things threaten to, yet again, bring the pain and suffering onto all who are alive.
However, through the hardships and tragedies, while in despair and hope, the brothers still move on forward towards their goal, thought to be unreachable.
