| This remind me that I need to start watching the popular Mushishi TV series. |

| Artland is still doing stuff? Where is my Reborn! sequel? |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |

| I'm not the biggest fan of this show, but I'll still watch it as it's only an hour long. |
| Another page to the history of the Fujaku. |
malvarez1 said: Artland is still doing stuff? Where is my Reborn! sequel? Right! I want my Reborn finished in Anime form. Come on it is time! |
| Great news! Can't wait for the one hour special ^^ |
| Yes! and nooo i wanted a second season. But nevertheless: at least it's not a live action movie :D Banzai for more Mushishi |
 |
| I was also hoping for a full season but I guess it's better than nothing. Ofc I'll be watching this :> |
 |
| Nobody said we wouldn't get a second season guys. And the magaka is only writing two new chapters so far, so I'm amazed they're adapting it so quickly. Think of it like the Black Lagoon OVA. They're adapting whatever they can work with. |
| Hopefully this means we'll get a second season as well. |
shattereddreamzz said: Why not a second season?! I'm disappointed :/ This... But hey, more Mushishi is always good. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/4884/jhzg.gif This is one the greatest news of the year for me :'D |
| Sweet! Maybe it's time to finally pick this up because I was considering it a couple of months back... Heh. |
| Good news! Really looking forward for that)) |
| One hour of Mushishi is always better, than NO Mushishi, so Yay! to that XD |
| - |
| Thank god it's not a live action movie or something like that. More Mushishi Anime sounds awesome, I'd never have thought that there'd be any more Mushishi Anime - related stuff coming out a few weeks back. Even if it's just an hour I'm totally fine with this. |
| Mushishi > Reborn4shit |
 |
| .........Awesome. |
 .. |
| That's great. =) |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| amazing |
| Can't believe it - so happy!!! Awaiting some awesome art/animation/story/characters/ etc etc!!! :D Also just hit me that I watched the original series back in 2006.... wow time really flies!! ^^; |
 |
| Great news, I waited years for new Mushishi season, and well at least this is something, definitely excited for this special |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| Perfect, great news. |
 |
| Time to start watching the T.V. Series I guess. |
 |
| Great news. I'm kind of disappointed we're only getting one hour but I'll take what I can get. Can't wait for this. |
| Anything Mushishi-related is awesome in my book. I'm excited for this! MY BODY IS READY! |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Official website also updated: http://www.mushishi-anime.com/ Also, airing time is as follows: Jan 4th 2014 23:30-24:30 |

| 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. |
| This is amazing really great. |

| Good news! Need more though ... |
| Nice, nice. A short movie sounds much more appealing than a 20 minute OVA or something. |
 |
| I need this nowwww. |

| First, why not make something (special, ova, whatever) to pick up where the TV series left off and follow the manga till its end? That's what I've been hoping to see someday all these years... And second, before the edit the news post said they'll be using the same technique as in Aku no Hana... It's not true, I hope? That retroscoping thing is the last thing I wanna see in my Mushishi. |

CG said: Maybe this is testing the water for that. At least they are adapting a new 2 chapter special instead of trying to cram the rest of the chapters or giving us a crappy ending. Hope for a second season is not lost. And that's not true.First, why not make something (special, ova, whatever) to pick up where the TV series left off and follow the manga till its end?
