I'm actually in Japan just now and bought a title today for next season earlier - all rights actually and of course will be simulcast. Expect news on Friday morning about it :D.

Best,

It's Space Dandy isn't it? =3
 
Space Dandy is a duh, the rest is a relatively hand-to-mouth affair with Sailor Moon ready to disappear into a cloud of theoretical smoke the moment Toei senses that it's doing anything that could be even close to be considered a favour for anyone but itself.

I know as a fact I won't touch Nisekoi (the 18 stupidest pages in Shonen Jump any given week and that's considering Jump is besieged by both Naruto and Bleach limping to the finish line), My Big Sister has Arrived (f' incest...wait...) or Wizard Barristers (Brilliant Idea to be molested to death by the ever sticky hands of ARMS)
 
Here's the chart if anyone wants it.
Space Dandy, Chuu2 S2 and Seitokai Yakuindomo S2 are the only definite series for me so far, although as with every season I'll pick up more as I go. Nisekoi is a maybe.
I'll be continuing Golden Time and Kill La Kill definitely heading into next season. Undecided on Samumenco at this stage though, as I've found it a bit underwhelming to the point that I have no real drive to watch the most recent episode almost one week on.

To be honest I'm incredibly surprised that Seitokai Yakuindomo remains unlicensed. Hopefully the second season will encourage someone to pick up the rights and release it.
 
Chunibyo S2, Noragami, Silver Spoon S2, Nesikeo, and Space Dandy are the ones I'll definitely be picking up. Might consider Silver Link's new show too.

I'll be sticking with both Kill la Kill and Samurai Flamenco, I'm too invested in the characters at this point to drop either and both are turning out quite impressive. I'll also be continuing Strike the Blood, Log Horizon, Nagi no Asukara and Golden Time depending on which go over into the next season. I know they're all 20+ episodes, just no idea if they go over to this season or skip a one. xD

Yup, it's Space Dandy

Also Conan, I'm pretty sure the stupidest pages in JUMP award goes to that cliché ridden vampire manga.

Which one? Serph of the End actauly looks like it's going somewhere (With the Vampires coming off as basically not Zeon) whilst I'll never say a good word about Rosario + Vampire (Gonzo ruined that one).

Can't say the same of the same bloody love triangle that's been going on since Kimagure Orange Road only without the esp shenanigans to boost it.

Bleach and Naruto are braindead and are just rolling down the hill at this point.
 
I just remembered a show that's in the Winter 2014 season that caught my eye a few months back, pupa.

This show already has its episodes censored due to cannibalism and incestery.

The official site for the 2014 winter TV anime pupa announced today that they will host a special screening event for the uncensored version of its first eight episodes at the Aeon Cinema Makuhari Shintoshin theater in Chiba Prefecture on December 21 in advance of the start of its TV broadcasting on January 9, 2014. Due to its incest and cannibalism-related contents, the broadcast version will be edited to some degree.

I'll be surprised if this gets licensed in the USA.
