Strike the Blood II

[ukulelembo]

I'm a little surprised, that there is still no thread for this.
In short. Second season for Strike the Blood was announced in form of OVA series.

New series will have 8 episodes, that will be released in 4 volumes.
Release dates for each volume are:
Volume 1 - 23.11.2016
Volume 2 - 21.12.2016
Volume 3 - 29.03.2017
Volume 4 - 26.04.2017

First two episodes (from Volume 1) will adapt Black Sword Shaman arc (Volume 9 from original novels). Most of Staff and Cast from previous season are returning for this one as well.
Here is first trailer:

I hope they'll animate Fairy's Coffin at some point.

Sorry but i'm not up to watch the story of the crappiest vampire ever, and i'm especially not going to suffer through Yukina all over again her stupid catchphrase still gives me headaches. Although it is till better than Twilight, the emotionless mouth breather and pedo vampire.

[Marcus H.]

Ffff yeah, more IIE SENPAI! \o/

2-3 episodes per volume seem like something that won't turn out really well.

I'm still puzzled why Yukina alone is taking all the criticism for that catchphrase when it's Kojō and hers. Without him starting it off by saying "from here on it's MY fight" there would be no "Iie senpai".

No thanks, not watching this waste of Taneda Risa's voice.

[Hakai]

That IIE SENPAI in the end.

That just had to be there

Previous season covered volumes 4 and 6 in three episodes (+ side novel adapted in two episodes) as well.

the story structure isn't that complicated so its possible to be done. I'm still peeved with the idea of Rank 1 Kenjuu not showing up.

[moodie]

Dont know why ppl come in this thread just to say they wont watch it lmfao. Do you go to every store and say no thx and walk out too?

Nevertheless im excited since this is one of my fav harems out there. Only 3 arcs but thats fine.

Lol, this I agree I think its just a waste of time to visit and reply on the thread just to say your not watching it. If they added more reasons and justifications on why they don't like it, I will be more reasonable and not treat it as a troll but seriously...

My favorite girl is still Asagi and as long as she's shown. I'm fine. Then there is La Folia. I also liked that girl but still liked Asagi and Natsuki better than her.

The project staff has released a notification yesterday in regard to the announcement of Taneda Risa's medical leave:

ご報告

If I'm interpreting it correctly then it says that the first part of the OVA, as well as the Himeragi Yukina Character Song Album, will be on sale with no cast changes from November 23 onward. No information on the subsequent releases scheduled for December 21, March 29 and April 26.

Spoiler for Kojou's Future Family:

Why do I get the feeling that one day we may also get to see Daughter-Number-Three that Kojou could very well have with Sayaka? Season One's Conclusion clearly showed he went the Harem Route in the Future: If Two Is Happy, Three is All The Merrier, Yes?
Heck, considering how much *money* it takes to set up an *Empire*, he could very well have a Number-Four in La-Fiola and/or Kanon.
And just so she can find some happiness, Yuma-chan as a mistress.

On A More Serious Note:

Get Well Soon, Taneda Risa!
