According to the official campaign page for the republishing of light novel "IS: Infinite Stratos" by the new publisher Overlap, the light novel will get a new TV series. No other details are available yet. In the new version of the light novel, the character designs have changed due to the illustrator changing from okiura to CHOCO.

In addition, the following is the publication schedule:
Apr 25th - Vol.8 (including a deluxe edition containing a DVD), Vol.1 & 2
May 25th - Vol.3
Jun 25th - Vol.4
Jul 25th - Vol.5
Aug 25th - Vol.6 & 7

IS: Infinite Stratos 2 on MAL
NaruleachApr 20, 2013 9:41 PM
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Keep the seiyuu, is all I want. Although I wouldn't mind seeing the main char voiced by a different actor. I wonder if this will be a remake which, frankly speaking, wouldn't make too much sense in my book since the story didn't change I suppose; only the character designs. Guess I'll have to wait for further news.

You should probably note when the new volume will be released too for additional information about the news.


Hmm, if it's a sequel, I guess it would cover up to volume 7, though that would burn out all the materials like Haganai. Then again, I'll get to see
so it's all good.
>you will never see the other 2 chapters of vol4 be animated
D:

If it's a remake, I'll still watch it, though remaking a show that aired just 2 years ago is just weird.

As for the LN, I don't like the art of the new illustrator, especially the eyes.
The previous one was better but that's life I guess.
Will read if T_P decides to translate it. Otherwise, will wait.

The first season was generic and pretty poor, the novels actually are worse and continue to get worse.

But you know what?



Fuck yes, more Cecilia.

Someone posted an MU link in the new artist's profile regarding his other work.
The cover is not bad but I still prefer the old illustrator.

Thank you. I won't be quick to judge but I hope the artist will do a good job.

But the question is, why the artist change?

Nobody knows, except that it is not a decision by okiura himself.

This!

I was so pissed at the moment when I saw the long blue thing from Cecilia's IS.

Anyways, I hope it's going to be faithful to the novel. Looking forward to it.
