Is the series still supposed to debut in April, and if so is there any new merchendise planned to coincide with the new show?

Have you even READ the manga? There is no "continuation" to the original anime, anyway. The movie Conqueror of Shaballa
was the conclusion to the anime series, no ifs, ands or buts.
This is a remake closely following the manga, which in my opinion has a better storyline and doesn't have things like the annoying Rose angst. Dante also doesn't exist, which is nice. If you want more differences, look at my post earlier.
I hope the budget is high enough, because it gonna have to be to do justice to a second series, not to mention a second series is a just as big an investment to the watchers as it is the makers.
