New Announced Anime

[billborden]

AniDB has a listing for this coming out as a ONA, but with no release date. Does anyone have any more info? As an obsessive fan of both anime and Lovecraft, I really need to know, ya' know? :eyespin:

1,000,000 views and 4000 posts and almost 5 years to this thread >_<

I'll be talking with an admin/s to apply a new rule to this thread that restricts source links to only Japanese anime news sites (2ch, MoonPhase, ...). Any sources mentioned in any post that has an "unproper" link should be deleted by an admin/moderator (the deletion of the post in other words), no matter if the news were mentioned here or not. What I think this forum/thread needs are members that are more active on posting new anime news from Japanese sources, this way this thread will not become a thread of "link posts" to english anime news sites.

The less I and others become active on this forum the more frequent "link posts" to other english news sites become... which is not something that would attract readers to this thread (they can just go to those english anime news sites).

I'm trying to get this thread more active in the scene of Japanese new anime news reporting so that this thread will still be active and competitive in new anime news reporting.

I'm not as I used to be a 1-1.5 years ago, when I was very attentive to new announced anime news, and many times (some times) getting the new announced anime news here before any other english site (:P). I want to return this thread to its past "glory" before I fade away from this forum...

Anyway, I'll talk to an admin about this rule, and if this rule gets accepted then I'll post back about this.

^But Japanese links don't give me any information. I have no idea what each hierogliph means so I'm just dumbly staring at the text.

[Midonin]

There are plenty of translation tools out there, and, with enough practice, one can eventually learn how to read Japanese. It's a fine skill to have.

[NeoSam]

^But Japanese links don't give me any information. I have no idea what each hierogliph means so I'm just dumbly staring at the text.

The idea is to have new announced anime news reported in english in this thread with a link to a Japanese source (the english news got translated by an AnimeSuki member and not quoted or taken from a different english news site). Meaning there will be english news reported by a member of this forum followed by a link to the Japanese source of this news.

Only linking to the Japanese source without translating its content would be worthless since most readers of this thread don't understand Japanese.

[billborden]

I understand your point, in part, but--by limiting thing to Japanese only links--you are cutting out a large (I would say the largest) portion of the users of this thread from adding anything. As you have said yourself, you have less and less time to spend on this, and I imagine that many of the other seniors are in the same position. Limiting the pool of contributors when the mainstays are able to spend less time researching doesn't make sense to me. Also, I have always seen this thread as an aggregate of what is out there. Yes, I could check all the English language sites myself, but real-life limits that. With a broad-spectrum of people bring their info here, we all benefit. There are enough users here to weed out the false leads, and fill in the questions once the info gets here, but if we're limited to Japanese only sources, that puts the onus of all the original research on those few members who can understand them. And, I'm very sorry to say that, while reading written Japanese may be "a fine skill to have",I'm comfortable saying it's not a practical option for the majority of readers.

And I don't really think you need to worry about staying competitive. I've yet to find another site near as complete as this thread has been--hell, this thread is the reason I became a member in the first place.

I'd been meaning to start a topic on this, but I'm ... half dead with lack of sleep and crapton of work still (this is the 34th hour I'm going without sleep now ... orz), but this is not an ONA. ONA is already released and subbed from a while back, the anime series doesn't not have a release date yet.

Recently however (as shown on your link), the director who did the ONA will come back and do the anime series as well. The DRAMA CD cast will come back and voice the anime (more Eri Kitamura goodness).

DLE will be in charge of animation, which I'm kinda worried about because they really haven't done much. The ONA from before while worked out nicely but doesn't really impress much.

It's about less quantity, more quality, I'm thinking.

I remember the days that it took 1-2 days (usually about 24 hours) to get 1000 additinal views on this thread, nowadays it takes more days... without staying competitive I can see this number only dropping and dropping. I mean why read a thread which will get you the news later when you can read it earlier on other sites.

I do understand what you are saying, but I would still like to see this thread being independent from other news sites, and not a thread that contains a collection of "re-directs" to other english news sites. That type of thread will not only lose readership but might also keep off potential new contributors that are fluent in Japanese from joining in and helping (If I was the outsider and had a look at a thread that contains a bunch of links to other sites, I know that I wouldn't give a hand to such a thread).

On one hand, I do understand what you are saying, but on the other hand I only see the demise of this thread if it keeps taking the path that its taking currently.

NeoSam has a point there. This thread needs an identity of its own. It doesn't have to have its own site. But at least, let it have its own credibility of being a first hand source straight from Japanese sources.

I think NeoSam imagined of turning this thread into something MoonPhase (http://d.hatena.ne.jp/moonphase/20100930) like, which is where he took most of his information from. It might be awesome if we have the people to do it. ;)

[NeoSam]

I don't think I want it to be like MoonPhase or MoonPhase Diary, both sites contain all sorts of announcememts, not only anime. But yeah I would like it somewhat similar to MoonPhase Diary (in the anime announcements part), were not only anime adaptation announcements are mentioned but also possible anime adaptations (for example mentioning that an important announcement concerning a manga is coming up next month in a magazine issue, mentioning this to be a possible anime adaptation gives this thread a more competitive nature, since in case it really gets an anime adaptation and other english news sites do mention the news, but we did mention it first, that it will be getting an important announcement, and that it might be an anime adaptation :P, this is one of the things I do to try to keep this thread as competitive as possible).

It's licensed by Media Factory ?Media Factory isn't a licensor, they're a publisher/distributor in Japan. That being said, I don't see anything (yet) that indicates who the publisher/distributor will be for this anime. (Not sure why you're asking this in the news thread...)

[billborden]

It might be awesome if we have the people to do it. ;)

I will be happy if we do. Ultimately, I'll keep coming back here for my info no matter what; so I do hope things will keep going. :cool:

Haha probably.

Though this book's pretty popular, sold over 1,300k copies (going by the article number, not website) already for just one volume. For comparison Index + Railgun together just hit 15 million (http://yunakiti.blog79.fc2.com/blog-entry-6897.html) cumulative sales with all those volumes a few/two(?) days ago. This also topped the ebook chart for May when went on sale through the iPhone App on 4/28.

From the look of it, it won't be Anime no Chikara title.

Hey long time no see sirn ;)
Thanks for the details. It's still an Aniplex (http://playlog.jp/sendenman/blog/2010-10-22) production but it would explain the fact the CM was broadcasted on MBS and not TV Tokyo.
Anyway I don't much care since it's rather the staff which excites me.

If they adapt into a 13-episodes TV anime, what the anime that what adapted into 13-episodes TV series produced by Pierrot ? It will be Mezzo and Midori Days !

The shounen manga Ao no Exorcist by Katou Kazue will be getting an important announcement in the next issue of Jump SQ. Could there be an anime series in the works? Answer next month.

I'm truly fond of the manga, but uh, there's very little material to adapt... I'm definitely curious to find out more about this announcement.

[Kunagisa]

Makoto Shinkai new work announced (no title or anything yet).

http://ameblo.jp/teamshinkai <-- new blog with one sample picture and announcing he's working on a new title now, so might take a while still, but I'm still quite excited =).

So I was wrong here and apparently this was announced like last Christmas.

Anyway, website (http://www.hoshi-o-kodomo.jp/top.php) finally opened and title is Hoshi o Ou Kodomo/星を追う子ども.

We are to expect a trailer from Yahoo Movie on 11/9.

[Guardian Enzo]

A new project from Shinkai makes me shudder with anticipation more than anyone else in anime. I'm in awe of his talent as an artist.

[Leo_Otaku]

OOH Makoto Shinkai!!! I can't wait! I hope it won't drag like 5cm.

The English title for this on that page is a very unusual translation. It says "Children who Chase Lost Voices from the Deep," but 星を追う子ども would normally translated "Children who Chase Stars" as far as I know. I'm curious to see what that's about.

[MeoTwister5]

Holy crap! Could this even remotely be related to Hoshi no Koe?

Whatever it is, excuse me while I go soil myself and count the days left to the airing of the preview.

I imagine if GTO : Shonan 14 Days will be getting a TV anime adaptation. This is the third anime adaptation of Onizuka franchise.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisée will be continued in the next Dragon Age with important announcement. If this turns out to be an anime adaption, I will celebrate by allowing myself to sleep more than 3 hours that night.

Takeda Hinata's artwork is absolutely charming http://www.fujimishobo.co.jp/pure/takeda_ill.jpg (GOSICK's novel illustrator for those who don't know). I believe Dragon Age officially comes out on the 9th of each month (so you probably see stuff around the 8th). I highly recommend this manga to anyone even if this does not get an anime adaptation. Yune's even more cute than Victorique in my opinion =).


Also new Studio Ghibli work to be announced (http://temple-knights.com/archives/2010/11/studio-ghibli-new1215.html) 12/15.

You're dead-on - it looks like Shinkai backgrounds with Ghibli character designs and polish. Theoretically that should be pure win, but it makes me uneasy. How will Shinkai with a huge budget end up on screen - will it still be Shinkai?

According to the latest issue of Comic REX magazine, TYPE-MOON’s Takenashi Eri’s comedic manga series, 「Take Moon」, will be receiving an anime adaptation. Kishi Seiji (Angel Beats!) has been assigned as the director for the new project.

Well, should we assume that PA Works will take on this job?

From ANN:

Showa Monogatari Anime Film, TV Series to Launch Next Year (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2010-12-09/showa-monogatari-anime-film-tv-series-to-launch-next-year)

The production company THINK Corporation announced on Thursday that the Showa Monogatari (Showa-Era Story) film and television series will launch next year. The original story follows the human drama of the Yamazaki family in Tokyo in the Year Showa 39 (1964) — the year that the city hosted the Summer Olympics. According to Think, the "TV manga" is "the world's first anime aimed at seniors," although it is also targeted at families.
Sounds like a refreshing break from moe fanservice / monster of the week. From what little I know of Japanese history there was a lot of social change bubbling away then, and of course the Olympics were meant to show that Japan had shaken off the post-war gloom and "taken its place in the world" as a modern nation. This could also be a treat for anyone who enjoyed the family dynamics in Summer Wars.

ANOHANA Project by Aniplex x Fuji TV x A-1 Pictures staff detail is revealed. It will be animation original project.
http://animapple.blogspot.com/2010/12/whats-new-anohana-project-staff-data.html

Also, it has been rumour for a long time, but new announced anime 'Mayo Chiki' is on the line of TBS X MF Bunko J animation projects. It will be the third one after Infinite Stratos and Hidan no Aria.
http://animapple.blogspot.com/2010/12/info-mf-bunko-j-x-tbs-animation-project.html
'Mysteriously', both series for LN by MF Bunko, 'Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai' and 'Kikou Shoujo wa Kizutsukanai' had their own website launched. This means they have high possibility of becoming next animation project after Mayo Chiki's time-slot.

I think I bet money on these getting animated half a year ago, but what are these new websites? I thought they each had their own websites awhile ago.

[applejuice]

^Well, I know that is a bit old news. I just added infos in as it is now clear Mayo Chiki will be broadcast in TBS.

[MisaoFan]

^Well, I know that is a bit old news. I just added infos in as it is now clear Mayo Chiki will be broadcast in TBS.

This means that Mayo Chiki! will premiere in July ? The MF Bunko J x TBS timeslot looks like TV Tokyo's Anime no Chikara timeslot except it was focused on light novels : each title have 12 or 13 episodes.

[applejuice]

^ That's very likely, yes.

Ummm uhhh errr, is Lotte for real?:twitch:
In the medieval fantasy world of Alfheimr, succubus princess Astrarotte Ygvar, the first princess of the kingdom of Ygvar, has just reached the age of 10.lol wut? For the coming years of a young succubus' life, it is necessary for them to have a male harem. In order to maintain their body and preserve their beautiful appearance, they must consume a substance only found on males. This substance is a liquid called "Sauzfryma", better known as semen. The princess, however, bears a great dislike against men, and only agrees to create a harem if a human male is to join.

In the human world Midgar, young father Touhara Naoya was greeted by a suspicious lady one day, claiming that she is a fortune teller. She also claims that she can help him find the "perfect job" fitted for him. Even though it seems suspicious, he accepts the free consultation in order to support himself and his young daughter. After meeting in the park with the suspicious lady a day later, he suddenly found himself in Alfheimr, a medieval fantasy realm located on a different world. The mysterious lady uncloaks her true identity as the Head Chamberlain of the kingdom of Ygvarland. He was then lead to the palace of Ygvarland, and there, the "job" he accepted was finally revealed; he was to become a human candidate for princess Astrarotte's harem

I'm interested in Rinshi!! Ekoda-chan just after reading that synopsis (and the Engrish on the V3 cover seals it). Afternoon seems to be strong in stories that aren't about highschool kids: although it's probably too niche to ever get animated, Akiyama Haru's Octave (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/manga.php?id=10573) is one of the best manga I've ever read.

"Dear Momo" — that was all that was written on a letter left behind by Momo's late father. Momo and her mother have just moved from Tokyo to the countryside of Japan's Inland Sea. On an island lies a wondrous town surrounded on all sides by quaint homes and nature's landscape. Even as Momo starts a new life, she wonders, "Father, what did you really want to write in your letter…?" One day, she discovers an ancient book in the attic, and from that day forward, strange happenings occur all around Momo.

The new K-ON!???

[applejuice]

Kyoto animation? Could you state source for it? Since I can't find any clue other than 2ch people saying its Oonuma Shin/Silver Link touch...

Edited: That animation definitely isn't something I used to see in Kyoani world.

[MeoTwister5]

Well the animation looks KyotoAni-ish.

[Mizuno]

Body switching of all things... the concept of it seems almost hentai (Body Exchange). Though the reception of it is apparently pretty good on amazon... This is definitely no K-ON, I take that back but the art style and the moeness will attract K-ON enthusiasts to watch it either way.

[applejuice]

Well the animation looks KyotoAni-ish.

That's because Horiguchi Yukiko, the character designer of K-On + other kyoani works, did the illustration of [the original light novel]. That's pretty much only relevance I could find from animation being 'Kyoani-ish'. Of course I might be wrong, but there are no source that Kyoto animation is actually animating this.

[RRW]

do we actually have source of anime adaptation anyway? we get a preview that probably for promoting drama CD or LN

Since light novel is apparently very popular, I saw a lot of people who is discussing about studio which might have showed it, and Silver Link X Oonuma Shin was one of the popular prediction (mainly due to the conti direction).

OMG! kokoro connect is getting an anime??!!! OMFG!

mah, i read the first chapter of the manga, the raw one, last year and i thought it's interesting. And yeah, the LN caught my attention since yukiko horiguchi drew the art(she was using an alias ''Shiromizakana" but one can never deny her artstyle XD) and aki toyosaki's casted in it.

so, i'm on to this!!

EDIT: i think it's just the drama cd. it's due feb. 2011, this month.. DX

I haven't heard anything about this series before. I only saw the ANN item this morning because someone wrote a summary of the raw.

A late-night anime block from NHK aimed at mature women? Sounds like something I'd enjoy, and probably a few other folks here as well. I don't even see an entry for this at fansubwiki, never mind a group interested in subbing it. Live-eviL, perhaps?

Their love will never die!*slaps Westlo with a paper fan*

Otherwise, I'm so looking forward to the new Aquarion. I personally like the idea of a potential love triangle, as suggested by the main character trio on the main page.

If Apollo is back, I hope we get to see Silvia too; more conclusion for this couple!

well considering the bill. OVA probably more realistic

[relentlessflame]

well considering the bill. OVA probably more realisticWell, considering the bill (which is specifically about the placement of products at retail), it being an OVA wouldn't make any difference.

But regardless, it seems the sources are now started to recant the claim now, so we'll see if this ends up being true after all.
