| 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. |
| So it's not joke then? Well this should be fun wait. |

| It's not a joke. It's even on the official site... The series is getting a third season and ova. I'm excited about it. |
 |
| More awesome PLOT. Will watch. |

 I thought the second season didn't sell enough for them to actually make a third season. Why are they that much obsessed with their flying mahoutsukai nekomimi loli in pantsu with guns? |
 |
| sweeeeet! this news was good enough to cure my hangover :) can't wait for more details to be released |

Shangetsu said: If it did not sell enough, then why would they make a movie after the 2nd season ?? As for why they are that "obsessed", perhaps because they are.... successful and popular?

| It been so long since the last season i thought it would never happen. |

symbv said: SilentTruth said: You mean you have heard the news somewhere already and thought it was a joke?So it's not joke then? Well this should be fun wait. Well, with internet booming like nuts, any kind news can be either true or just joke. If it is from the official, high chance that the news is trustful. That's all I can think. |
|
| I've only seen the first season so far, but I'm defintiely happy for this to be getting a continuation. Contrary to popular belief, I indeed am watching this for the yuri undertones plot. |

GREW said: "Not enough money was made" o.O you are serious?... I really don't want to live anymore. WHY MUST THEY RELEASE ANOTHER SEASON?! NOT ENOUGH MONEY WAS MADE?! Luckilly people who run this business have different mindset (like earning money on things that are popular) so third season will be made. And I'm actually happy for this - unless they will keep with historical references along the road. |
GREW said: Yeah, I am a Strike Wizard lol. But anyway you said you do not want to live anymore, do you? I can see why you are so depressed about this world because there are so many non-humans in this world and they all love this anime !!And in my eyes you are not even human anymore. |

| Oh yeah finally! It was expected though based on the disc sales and the ending of the movie, but it was only a question of when lol. |

Dunno saw a post on reddit about it and just put a neutral notice in the SW Fanclub here on MAL that we might have a 3 season confirmed. I clearly stated that I wasn't sure about it's trustworthiness. |
|
| Hm... Welp I guess I'll be waiting then. I'm not exactly a die hard fan of the franchise but it's still entertaining so I'm in for sure. I wonder if similarly to its previous seasons it'll come out in the Summer. |
Liph said: You were being cautious ;-) which I guess is understandable if you do not speak the language. Yaraon usually reports legitimate news for the big things (like this one) though on smaller stuff sometimes it fell victim to tabloid reporting style. Its news sources sometimes do come from forums like 2ch but in this case it got it from the official Strike Witches website, which is also where I sourced the news from.http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-19261.html Forum I guess?

| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| And that's a good news. They ended movie with hint for Karlsland liberation campaign so we'll probably would get it. And yes I'll watch it because of interesting charas and action. I don't care about the fanservise |

But sadly they won't because they don't contain lolis, pantsu shot or have somewhat story to tell beside fighting an black enemy and be lesbians the other days. That show like Strike Witches get another season is making me angry because instead using something it was good, they choose where they can make the most profit. Now I maybe can blame the people who like Strike Witches and even support this series. But well... if they like such stuff. I for myself did only watched the first season and that was okay. I dropped the second season even before the OP because it started being so silly that I did not want to see more of this. |

Vanadis = Freyja = Norse god of love, beauty, fertility, gold, Seiðr(A type of sorcery), war and death. |
GREW said: Funny thing is the thought about lolis and panty shots do not cross my mind much when I watch the anime...

| HELL YEAH! Been waiting for this ever since the end of the movie. There can never be enough pantsu...I mean Strike Witches! News of the week. |

Rather teenager/kids if you want to go the way and not use the term loli. symbv said: It should be "they used it for something good, because it is making fans happy while also making good profit". Like I said, they paid for the wrong stuff. symbv said: I count the silly parts as also entertaining parts too. Sure if its nice. But being silly as the concept. |

The name itself don't mean anything in terms of new season location. Thats why I said "Suggest" or implied. Its not confirmed, but the name does seem to imply it will take place in the Nordic regions(In other words, Scandinavia). Maybe it'll be about another JFW than the 501th. |
| FUCK YES. |
| There were hints at season 3 for years, not surprised it will happen though. Will watch. Btw the Strike Witches girls are all teenagers or grown. |

GREW said: Like who paid? Fans or producers?symbv said: It should be "they used it for something good, because it is making fans happy while also making good profit". Like I said, they paid for the wrong stuff. I think that fans knew exactly what they wanted to buy and if producers have problems in using their money they wouldn't be in the industry for a long time. But people did, producers noticed and will try to sell more of it. If you want some other series to get more season there is one thing to do buy their DVDs/BD, soundtrack or whatever they offer. Simple. |
GREW said: Well, the point you originally made is not whether they are loli or not, but that they sold more than some other fan service anime because of the lolis (and pantsu shots and nekomimi). So my post is not to debate whether they are loli or not, but how much of its success is due to the loli factor. Think them as you want. The are loli. Better said they are not woman at least. Rather teenager/kids if you want to go the way and not use the term loli. GREW said: You forgot to add "for me" after "the wrong stuff", but then I wonder how much you ever paid into the anime industry. Like I said, they paid for the wrong stuff.

| Best News~ *w* Hopefully they are going to animate the recovery of Karlsland. |

| Each time I read commentary about news Season, I saw "money". I think it's a really good thing that studio can do sequel, without being obsessed about money! Of course it's important, but give some pleasure to fan are also very important. That's my opinion though. Anyway, we don't have too much information but some thinks we can have other JFW instead of 501th. Some pictures then if you don't know other JFW: http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/5753021381506284874.jpg http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/1134781381670461785.jpg |

If Japan would release their Anime BDs with Eng subs, I would buy them direct from Japan. But since Japan, for stupid reason howsoever, don't release to 90% of the Anime without any subs, I won't buy it from Japan. I can not understand any Japanese... I think it would be pretty much a waste of money to buy them. "Great, I have now very expensive set of BDs but I do understand nothing." Nice. So therefor I buy Anime mostly from US and only a few times from German puplisher. I don't want to debate, but I think the more naked loli you have in an Anime, it certainly can boost your Anime. |
| kinda expected this... but don't mind a third season of this loli anime |
