So, he's gonna please both crowds now, eh? I'd say that's a smart way to avoid ditching all the side-characters that got left behind after the main 4 graduated. I hope he can pull this off.

Holy crap...
So, going the Saved by the Bell route after all, eh? Doing separate "The College Years" and "The New Class" series. I question the worth of the "New Class" one, though. I mean, they're already in their senior year so it can't last very long (unless they REALLY want to go the Saved by the Bell route and make it a revolving-door cast where new characters are constantly being introduced and old characters are constantly leaving... yuck). And of course, this begs the question - what will happen once Azusa and co. graduate? Join the older four in uni (and recombine the two manga back into one series from that point), or go off somewhere else and leave readers heart broken that Ho-kago Tea Time don't reunite after all? |

IMO, it would be a waste of Azusa to NOT have her reunite with her former bandmates. However, it's possible they never 'formally' break up, just that they break up because they're in two different clubs right now.
I'm sure Yui will still be in touch with Azusa through Ui (who will definitely not let her of her sister without a lifeline) and the rest will stay together, so I'm sure Azusa will not be forgotten either way. However, what Ui and Jun will do after they graduate is the real question. I doubt they would all join with the main four, as that would probably make the band too big, so it's possible that Azusa eventually becomes a permanent member of HTT (assuming they'll keep that name), while Ui and Jun go their own way (and maybe start a band together). Right now, though, I'm just glad no one will truly be 'left behind'.

Fantastic news to wake up to!
HTT was a band without Azusa so it's going to be interesting seeing what happens. They can clearly carry on in College (College is American like University is for the UK right?) because they started out with just the 4 of them, but I'm not sure they'll like not having Azusa play with them. I'm interested in whether Kakifly will introduce a new character who'll join up with Azusa and co. I think it'd be pretty cool if a new first year joined the Light music club after seeing Yui and Azusa's performance at that festival way back when. |

XD I'D love to see a new member. a kuudere to be specific. XDD or maybe a tsundere. XD hoping she'd be cute as hell!
anyhow, HS manga might just ran shortly since they'd only cover the trio's last year. seriously, i'd like k-on to return as one manga series after azusa's senior year. i want HTT to have its 5 members. DX azusa can play for both bands though. but still, HTT MUST be the PRIORITY. XDD can't wait to see the 4 in college! XD

I haven't read any of the manga and I really need to change that but hearing about new Manga made me so happy! Also if they pass a year quite quick in the new Manga, Azusa can go join back and the whole awesome crew will be back together.

New K-ON! Goes to University

- Mio has Ritsu and vice versa. - Mugi has her own harem (namely the rest of her faculty) - Yui still has Ui. I suddenly have a feeling it is going to become a yuri manga. Azunyan is mine! Stay away from my kitty!

Oh Yui's eventual boyfriend will have to go through the trial by fire to get her. I guaran-fucking-tee it. Likewise I also guarantee that if ever they ever get boyfriends, she'll be the first one to have a significant other among the four.
What? Why ar you looikgn atme liekthatqlkwdjoiasdjq,mwend

As for this "boyfriend" business - not gonna happen. Why do you think Kakifly had them all go to a Women's University? He wants to keep the series the same as before, to the extent it's possible. |

Keep in mind, the second season was entirely the main 4 girls' senior year of high school. Now that there are two time lines to follow I'm sure they can get at least that much content before Azusa and crew graduate. Time may feel like it's slowing down because he has two manga to write but as long as the rate at which we get new content stays consistent I don't really mind.

In any case, one thing is certain - Kakifly is going to have his hands full. |
