(L) My Hero Academia Anticipation

[Jetzero Infinity]

The domain name HeroAca.com was registered under Toho and while it could be an OVA or something a TV anime seems more likely. Certainly surprised to see them having taken it up though. Makes it harder to guess which studio will handle it but it seems like a safe bet it'll be a Spring 2016 show.

[Stark700]

It's not confirmed yet though...

Usually registered domain names are a clear indication something's happening but if it doesn't feel free to have the thread deleted

[relentlessflame]

I think for now we'll leave this locked, but if there is conclusive news we can re-open the thread. (Just send a report when that happens.)

For now, I think we can post these sorts of "rumours" in the Newly-Announced thread, being sure to mark them as rumours. After all, they could well turn out to something else entirely.

The anime has been confirmed. [Source ANN] The thread open again.

Now the wait for studio begins. This is a money title for WSJ so you'd figure someone first-tier, but then you'd have thought that about AssClass too and look what happened.

[Kuroageha]

Not much chapters so if they go for it like Deadly Seven Sins it can work for this series.

[MisaoFan]

I have a strong feeling this would come in spring season, other than that it could best work as a 2-cour show, not sure if it's going to tickle everybody's fancy though since I heard some mixed reactions about how the readers talked about the pacing going for it (haven't read the source though). Or perhaps I'm reading something off.

Massively excited for this but there's not that many chapters yet so, as what others have said, I'm really hoping something along the line of a two-cour anime (and maybe this being a Fall 2016 anime and not Spring 2016). Seriously hoping that this will continue the trend of massively popular manga not needing long-running adaptations.

Hope this gets good staff behind it.....

It will nearly have 90 chapter by the time Spring 2016 starts... they can easily do a 2 cour series at the point. Heck they could do a long running series if they really wanted to, it would just have a fuckload of filler throughout or a filler year like World Trigger.

Personally would take the Magi, Kuroko, AssClass, Sins, Haikyuu!! double cour break, another season approach though.

Rumors are that Bones will be animation studio for this.

Source? That would be a dream come true.

As others have said, Spring 2016 gives them more than enough material for a 2 cour first season. I'm not sure why folks are obsessing over it not having enough chapters to be a "long-running" anime without filler. Look at the way WSJ has treated Kurobas, Haikyuu, AssClass.... What makes the most financial sense is to do two-cour seasons, take a break for the manga to surge ahead, then do another. I thunk it's very likely BnHA will follow that route.

Rumors come from http://gigazine.net/news/20151029-bo...-machiasobi15/
It probably will be confirmed on Jump Festa in December. Staff are
Director: Kenji Nagasaki
Script: Yosuke Kuroda
Chara. Design: Yoshihiko Umakoshi
Production: BONES

[Guardian Enzo]

Any idea if that's a normally reliable source?

Pretty strong staff, though surprisingly Gundam heavy. Nagasaki isn't what I would call an A-list director but he's fine - on balance if this turned out to be true I'd be more than thrilled.

Well, Minami said he will announce their adaptation title for 2016 in December, but didn't specified what is that project. If we're talking about Kenji Nagasaki and BONES, they previously worked on Ace Attorney 5's cutscenes, so I'm not surprised if they're working on AA tv series.

Also, I heard that Umakoshi is probably working with Hiroshi Nagahama again, this time for collaboration with Stan Lee.

Take that with a pinch of salt.

No one actually knows what that announcement in December would (actually) be.

[Galaxian]

Naruto should be ending on spring, they could fill the timeslot for a cour or two with this until Naruto GT is ready.

[Kuroageha]

Umakoshi!?

I can see the characters doing her pises Umakoshi style .
