New SS? Wonder what it's about...

Lots of unfamiliar kanji, but it’s about some illustration(s) in Ratatosk’s “Fraxinus Magazine.”

That illustration is recent, right? Because it says in the corner that the new anime project is in progress. I know some people were worried about it.

And shouldn’t we be seeing the announcement for March’s volume release sometime around now?

It was released in the March 2018 Dragon Magazine. If March has a release, we should know on the 1st March - but the fact that Dragon Magazine doesn't appear to have revealed anything is telling.

EDIT: Chinese sources say Date A Bullet Volume 3 and Date A Live 18 are to be released on March 20th, though offer no title for either.

Date the Bullet 3 is the title for the Date A Live Fragment's third volume.

I can confirm Vol 18 is coming out in March along with DAB 3 but there's still no cover pic.

I know, I wasn’t clear, but Volume 18’s title isn’t out, yet, which is what I meant.

Also, how, exactly, can you confirm it?
I still can’t find a single Japanese source stating it - just Chinese ones - which is suspicious; not that I personally doubt it, but still.

Shouldn't "Why" be replaced with "Wherefore" since we're using Shakespeare-style English? And Kurumi calling Mukuro a "loli" seems out of the blue; Mukuro doesn't look anywhere near as small as Yoshino for instance.

Damn this would be so amusing to read. Also, this guy really almost nailed Tsunako's style here. Props to him!

Do you think that Kurumi and Mukuro might start a fight in Shidou's own room? What exactly happened in the Kurumi Santa Claus story again?

Right down to the whole "revealing clothing is cute on female characters" bit for Mukuro's dress, that Tsunako seems to like a lot.

Is it just me, or are the ones in control of DAL merchandise a bit slow on putting out figures? Kurumi is one of the most popular characters from this franchise, and I don't think a Kurumi figure based on a famous moment from the first season (which aired years ago) has been made yet, despite how much it could sell. Take a look at this official clip at four minutes and 44 seconds in case you need a reminder of which Kurumi moment that was:

NSFW

In case you forgot which moment this is.

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

I've seen more risque figures for seinen LN series too, but it's not like DAL doesn't have LN illustrations they could be based on either, like this one from Vol. 16. You'd think a Kurumi figure based on the following LN illustration would be a very popular item:

NSFW

Tagged for fanservice.

Now that Production IMS is in financial trouble, could this mean that the 3rd season of the anime might be delayed or cancelled outright? If it's so important that the 3rd season finish airing before the last LN volume releases, does this mean that either DAL's 3rd season gets a new animation studio like Highschool DXD did, or just gets cancelled because it would cost too much money to change animation studios and come too late?

I just pointed out from the latest DAL illustration above that the new anime project is still in the works.

AFKBORED · 2018-01-27, 06:27

According to some anon on 5ch it looks like V19 will be the last volume(for the main story I guess)

tuckersister · 2018-01-27, 07:28

I want at least see a scene with Shidou talking to Original Shidou. We kind of need it.

Let’s wait for word from the author or publisher.

Dark Rose Princess · 2018-01-27, 10:18

Lets not forget that DAL was mentioned in the special report to be ‘at its climax’ - which means the end, but V18 certainly can’t be the last. So although it’s ludicrous to think we have several more volumes to go, we clearly have at least a couple more. I’d imagine at least two more (for 19), maybe one more, for 20...but any more than that would negate the ‘climax’ thing they have mentioned on at least two occasions.

Shinji103 · 2018-01-27, 10:34

I know the end is coming, but I don’t believe anything unless it comes from an actual official source. Force of habit.

Spoiler for large picture:

Marina and the Nibellecoles aren't the same, and Original!Shido isn't New!Shido's father, but other than that it's largely accurate.

Although why the hell Mayuri is on it, and Rinne isn't, given that Rinne is the one Tachibana has said he likes to think is canon is baffling.

And of course, whether or not Kaguya and Yuzuru really were once one being is still unknown - on the one hand, all Spirits, Yamai included, were once human, and it doesn't make any sense that a Sephirah would divide a human in two; but on the other hand, we've not been given any evidence to the contrary, either (not that there is any evidence for, either, but still).

JonasDown! · 2018-02-02, 20:33

Well people. This might be sudden but the title of the new volume is out.

That was a suprise honestly.
