    This page needs some cleaning up to be presentable.

    The images here should be moved to the work pages if they do not already have images, and the laconic descriptions here should be moved to Laconic subpages of the works. Once that is done, this page can be deleted.

    This chart is a list of TV anime series that were planned to air between April and June 2012, along with their Laconic descriptions.

    See Winter 2012 Anime for the previous season and Summer 2012 Anime for the next one.
