Munto TV series
Official site
ANN source KyoAni's first original TV series? I liked the Munto OVAs a lot more than most people, so I'm quite looking forward to this. |

... It'd seem KyoAni really takes a sadistic pleasure in teasing both Suzumiya Haruhi and FMP fans
On the other hand, it will be interesting to see KyoAni doing an original work in full force. Their reputation at making adaptations has long been established and recognized, let's see how well they fare with their own brainchild. I've only watched the first Munto OVA, and while the concept wasn't bad, it barely had any execution time (it was only one OVA after all) so we only got but a glimpse of its possibilities... but the potential is there.

This just in, Munto TV has been cancelled.
Just kidding...or am I? What I find funny though is that all people seem to be doing so far about this announcement is complaining. I mean look, if this actually goes through without a cancellation then it's finally the moment I've been waiting for for the past 3 years. To finally see Kyoto Animation do an original in house TV series. Like I understand that Haruhi and FMP are popular and all, but it's nobody's call but the studio heads. All I can hope is that they don't kowtow to pressure to scuttle the product for another Key adaptation or the next Haruhi season. Something tells me they really aren't interested in doing Haruhi and FMP at the moment, and you know what, I am so ok with that. Plus I love the fantasy genre anyway so well........ |

The OVAs were quite average, there was nothing really special about them, and I hope the storyline of the TV series will be more interesting. It's good to see Kyoani doing something else (and not another Key/FMP series), but an interesting manga/light novel/game adaption would make me more enthusiastic.

I'm curious as to why they did this now. I can understand Full Metal Panic as they want the novels to finish first(although someone just saying that they are going to do another series later would go a long way). They announced Haruhi though in June and it's still not going to broadcasting. Instead they are remaking what is viewed ( it seems by alot of people) as a mediocre series. I wonder if they are having those supposed production problems with Haruhi? Either that or they really loved the series and decided why not, we have the money and skills now.
However I think they should release an announcement stating air date of Haruhi or announcement of new FMP series down the road otherwise I think alot of people will be pissed. I do think it's kinda cool that they are doing an original work, though it doesn't really sound that interesting. |

I guess we'll have to wait for the 10th before we can find out Munto TV's air date, though. Definitely next spring, since only their Key adaptations air in fall. Does this mean Little Busters next fall? How awesome. |

I'm wondering if Kyoto Animation's licence to animate another FMP anime has expired or if they are going to let it go to someone else or what. I mean they did grab it from Gonzo so it's possible that they lost the licence too over time. Personally I never really found FMP to be all that great nor Fumoffu really all that funny beyond chuckle inducing and the first TV series was by far my favourite, but then again that was also back when Gonzo wasn't on this B-Anime stint. In any case I'm not in any rush to see another one as my mecha needs are being more than satisfied as of late. |

I've been meaning to watch the OVA's for quite some time, but i think I'll just hold out for the TV series now. I've no idea what Munto is about and it'd probably be better if it stayed that way going into the TV series, makes the show more unexpected and interesting i guess lol =P

IMO, there's little incentive for Kyoto Animation to take on another season of FMP since it sells way short of any other adaptation they've worked on. But you never know. |
