Darker Than Black [1st season] generic discussion

[zalem]

That list better not be fake. I so think they need to do a second series to wrap up all the unanswered questions. Not to mention I want Hei and Misaki to hook up finally.

[Shiroth]

Hoping it's true, though it's a shame to think the chances of it being fake are a little bit higher.

[Solafighter]

A second season?

[Tworble]

I really doubt someone with a super sick sense of humor took time out of their life to create a fake list like that. It could happen, but the chances are low.

If they do have a season 2 I hope they give Hei a sex drive.

[Nvis]

I would like a second season, but a lot of the characters have been "removed", so to speak.

[Endrance]

yeh theres like only Hei left

[Vanehei]

Misaki, All her team, Yin, Hei, kiko, the detective,July and the other MI6 member... and Darker that Black was always pretty good about making good characters, remember, episode one was just about Hei, Mao and Chiaki...
bye the way, i think that Mao has a pretty nice change to come back

Late last week, a file that was purportedly to be a management document from the BONES anime studio was added to uploader.jp, a Japanese website that offers to distribute files anonymously and without charge. The spreadsheet file in Microsoft Excel format included a list of the studio's animation staffers along with what are reportedly their phone numbers, comments on their affiliation and availability, a letter-based classification system, their assignments, and their addresses. Among other points, it listed Fullmetal Alchemist animator Yasuhiro Irie as "Hagane 2 kantoku" (Iron/Fullmetal 2 director) and Darker than BLACK director Tensai Okamura as "Darker 2 junbi-jū" (preparing for Darker 2).

BONES President Masahiko Minami has posted an official statement about the file on the studio's website on Sunday. According to Minami, an internal investigation has determined that no file with this same formatted information existed within the company. He adds that the information which is reportedly the staffers' personal details did not come from the company's documents. Thus, they determined that "a third party" had created and posted document with the intent to libel the company. The studio will continue a special investigation into who distributed the file to malign the studio and the staffers. If the identity of the person is discovered, the company plans to deal with the individual severely.

In an interview after the official statement was published, ANN asked Minami about the possibility of a sequel to Fullmetal Alchemist or Darker than BLACK. Minami told ANN, "It hasn't been decided yet. We are interested in doing them. As original science-fiction works, they were extremely fascinating. With these kinds of dramatic story lines, I feel that there's a lot we could do potentially." The rest of the interview will be released on the ANN website after Anime Expo.

Cool, for me its a good new because they are not saying that there wont be a secuel...

[Yu Ominae]

But they won't rule it out... XP

[Endrance]

yeh theres a chance for Mao since he's still technically alive his mind just isnt dominant anymore

[Fighter Volk]

As wonderful as the original 25 are, the Darker universe would seriously benefit from a second season. I watched the whole series in three days about a week ago and that was my only real complaint, though barely a complaint - it felt like the first 25 episodes of something longer.

Hearing it mentioned in the same breath as Hagane 2 makes me seriously doubt the creation of one, unfortunately.

[herbert]

Don't you guys think Mao returns as a normal cat and spend the whole time in 2nd season just to try to get away from Yin's hands would be wonderful.

Alright, seriously, as long as Hei and Yin are still around, I'd like to give 2nd season a try.

[Tworble]

So they really might get another season...not set in stone but still awesome.

(Why do I keep thinking about that scene where Hei cuts vegitables?)

Perhaps on this szene, Hei looks like a normal guy.

[zalem]

Well the news about FMA 2 is looking like it might be true:

So maybe a Darker than Black sequel is likely to happen? We can only hope...

[Shiroth]

Yeah i heard about that, shame the news about another season for Darker than Black wasn't included.

Hopefully it'll be mentioned in the next few days.

You really didn't get the same thing out of it than I did, LOL!

On whether it's true....they tend to hold out telling anyone until everything is signed don't they?

[Yu Ominae]

On the one being done by FUNIMATION, a podcast recently revealed that recording for the North America dub is going underway. Didn't reveal to what extent.
