That's looking pretty sweet, but now that I'm reading the manga, I'm wondering whether they shouldn't have waited until there was more of it.

Unless they're already planning for filler arcs... ugh.

Bones usually ends an adaptation of a long-running Shonen manga with an original ending, if Soul Eater and Fullmetal are any indication. I've never watched FML '03, but if the internet is any indication, they did a great job on it's ending, though Soul Eater has gotten more mixed reviews after it cuts from the manga.

They're one-for-one. Hopefully, they'll do okay.

JoJo part 4's anime is confirmed to be released in April. They've also confirmed the VAs for the main cast besides Kira, along with the staff behind it. They're planning to release the first promo at Jump Festa in December

I'm so exceedingly disappointed in the casting. The voices they had for ASB and EoH were perfect. I can't picture anyone being able to play Kira as wonderfully as the guy in ASB.

IIRC, they've yet to confirm who will play Kira. I'm still hoping Rikiya Koyama's coming back because his voice was perfect in the games.

I am disappointed Wataru Hatano isn't coming back to play Josuke, he was probably one of the most well-done performances in the game. But the new VA played Taiga Kagami from Kuroko's Basketball, so I think he'll be great. He even spoke English in the show, so I at least know how well Josuke's "GREAT!" will be.

At least Okuyasu's keeping his VA. He was perfect for his "tough and stupid" personality.
 
^Whereas, it's twelve episode each at around two minutes. I found it one of the few series which did the ONA format pretty well.
 
Anybody here keeping up with Billy Bat, by any chance? Judging by the last chapter, we'll reach the climax pretty soon.

I'll reread all of it from the beginning when it gets an ending. It's hard to remember all the characters, timelines and events reading one volume every month (except when it's famous people like Hitler and Einstein)
 
Just read the entirety of Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice)

It's a manga about a deaf girl who went to a public elementary school and a boy who bullied her. It started off as a one-shot, but was then expanded upon to show what happened five years after the whole thing.

Very good manga I feel. It touches upon bullying, its effects on all the parties involved, how said parties changed over the years, and it doesn't really come off as super preachy either. It's definitely a recommended read. From what I read, there's also an anime in the works, so there's that to look forward to as well.

I just read through this shit in one night and fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
I NEED TO KNOW IF ISHIDA AND NISHIMIYA GET TOGETHER OK
 
Resumed watching Code Geass. Damn if that first season doesn't have the gas to the floor.

Also, been checking out an oldie from Tomino. Aura Battler Dunbine. Tomino, medieval fantasy, robots, fairies and an ending where everyone dies. This is going to be great.
