What are you up to Sunrise? How do you show a preview for the next manga arc with only one episode left? They are trolling us, I don't know how, but they are trolling us.

Cliffhanger ending, obviously. It worked for Code Geass and Gundam 00. Gintama will likely "end" with
Gintoki being kicked out of the main character position.

Wait what, WHAT. I just knew Gintama ends next week. First the HxH manga hiatus, now Gintama anime ends? What must I do now?

I hope they get enough sales, if they dub it from the start then I would surely finally watch Gintama, though I thought the fandom said it wouldnt work well dubbed cause so much of it is rooted in jpn culture or something along that line for the comedy.

I say a dub could work, however, it would require some cleaver writing and top notch performances of the voice actors to make it watchable.


For those curious here is a quick chapter rundown showing how close the Gintama anime is to the manga. Todays episode was chapter 283, the preview for next week is chapter 272, and the current manga chapter is around 292-293. As you can see, hot on the heels.

Buy the Gintama movie and Sentai will consider releasing more of the anime and dubbing the series.

Straight from the horses mouth, buying DVD's improves chances of additional releases. Hear that Gintama fans?
Frankly,no dubbing can replaced the epicness of Shinpachi's straight man shouting by Sakaguchi Daisuke.

Hashimoto's episode of Kemonozume wasn't bad. He directed one of the best episodes of Hanasaku Iroha too. The sample art style looks nice. I'll likely give this a go.

How originally can you design a bunch of schoolgirls really?
I think they look alright.
Unless it's some magical girl academy outfit its not going to look very fancy.
Also, this doesn't look like the sort of show that would have wild, crazy hairstyles either so that kind of limits the possibilities.

They look really good, but what I was referring to was more about the similarities than the actual design quality.

They have the same hair color scheme, same height differences, one of them has significantly larger breasts than the other two. It just feels really formulaic.

We can only hope that one of them is voiced by Omigawa as well.

Punk it up, crazy hair and lots of piercings.

Who, or what, is a 'Jexhius'?

What no. K-on!! wasted too much episodes about their slice of life instead of concentrating on their concerts and the band.

They had a band?

+1 for Summer.

Isn't there also a new Hanasaku Iroha animation in the works?

On one hand youre kind of right about the formula, but on the other hand, Hanasaku Iroha did not immediately spring to mind until you pointed it out so I'm not really in agreement there. But I guess we'll just see how the show goes.

The final product is all that matters. I enjoyed HanIro, bad P.A. Works art and all, so if they do something of quality with the story (Hopefully it doesn't revolve around brunette being in love) I will gladly watch.

Cute girls? Check.

Cute things? Check.

Of course, I don't believe that these things are mutually exclusive with quality. I loved Hanasaku Iroha and several other series that I could have easily dismissed for selling themselves on dem joshikousei, I just get a little cynical when we get character art before any kind of a premise.

I agree, though, no Kishida Mel makes me sad :( If the show is going to potentially ape Iroha, it should do it correctly.
