Nabari no Ou

[NeoSam]

FUNimation have now announced the license for Nabari no Ou. Previously we had received a C&D from FUNimation Entertainment (acting on the behalf of the Japanese IP owners, d-rights) so we didn't list fansubs here on AnimeSuki

Since the show is licensed, the following posts are not allowed in this thread.

• Asking where you can find Nabari no Ou downloads or torrents.
• Providing links to Nabari no Ou downloads or torrents.
• Discussing Nabari no Ou fansub groups (past or present).
• Asking for help downloading Nabari no Ou.
• Asking for playback help for Nabari no Ou episodes.

These rules applies to fansubs (in English or any other language) and raws alike.

You still are allowed to discuss the anime, that has not changed but please remember to limit the discussion to the story. End of edit by Mod (xris)

Info about the manga from Da Gurlz Translationz:

Rokujou Miharu was a seemly reluctant junior high student living in his own world. However, within him, lurked the ultimate power of Nabari*, “Omnipotent”. To possess such supreme weapon, the Wolf Pack of Iga* swore to bring Miharu back to Iga village. On the other hand, Miharu’s English teacher, Kumohira sensei*, and classmate, Kouichi, were the Banten* ninjas whose mission was to protect Miharu. A war waged over the ownership of “Omnipotent” thus started. To survive, Miharu must enter the hidden world Nabari, to become the king.

Genre: Shounen, Fantasy

Hmm sounds interesting and the manga covers look nice. When I first saw this I thought it was a sequel to Shion no Ou (just based on the name)

Same thought here. Looking at the cover art makes me wonder why this was published in a shounen manga magazine. :S

In the case of this magazine (GFantasy) the publisher is trying to attract female readers by appealing to the female readers with bishounen. That doesn't mean you'll find the manga tankoubon that comes from this magazine in the female shelfs of japanese bookstores, no, all manga that comes from this magazine will be in the shounen/seinen shelfs of japanese bookstores, no matter what the manga's content is.

On the other hand this magazine does have its share of moe moe manga >.< to attract the male otaku (the reason why some sites mention the magazine as a seinen magazine???)

Anyway, be it, bishounen, moe, or whatever, GFantasy is a shounen(boy's) manga magazine.

Um when is its release.

[Katapan]

As expected, a trailer was shown at C73.
(Thanks to tsukache for uploading it - here's hoping the video remains there for a while).

Not much was shown, but I'm mostly posting this thanks to the character design that I found very appealing. Now I feel like ordering all the tankoubon and see if the manga is as pretty as the covers seem to suggest...
Also, I suppose that expecting the series to air this spring is reasonable, with at least a bit of animation being done already.

[serenade_beta]

Trailer:

Not much is shown
Doesn't look too special, doesn't look bad either though
That twin-tailed girl's face scares me...
Quite a bit of bishonens...

[eipu]

this looks really interesting! The premise caught my attention and the artwork on the front cover of the manga looks extremely nice *__*

i watched the trailer, and i must say i really like the character design.
and its really full of bishounens, can't wait for this...Do you guys have any idea when this will be shown?

[sapphire-pyro]

I've read the manga long time ago. Don't remember much of it, but I remember myself liking it xD Looking forward to the anime version

[monir]

I've just come accross the title and I must say this show could turn out to be one of the good ones of the Spring season just because..... well just because it's a 13-episodes shounen series produced by J.C. Staff. I'm curious.

[jigenbakuda]

Who is on the cover of volume 6? She alone will make me watch this. Not to mention it has ninjas. I am really looking forward to this one.

[Westlo]

Read the first 3 chapters just than and I'm looking forward to this.

13 episodes only?

[Westlo]

There isn't that much manga out for it so 13 episodes seems reasonable, now will they give it a screwed up ending or leave it opened to be continued one day.

[Kaioshin Sama]

Well if nothing else this series should put to end Again the myth that Rie Kugimiya only plays Tsundere Lolis and only has one voice for every character.

[Westlo]

Well when you keep accepting the same type of role you do tend to typecast yourself, when's the last time she did a major male character anyway?
