Doujin circle C2 Kikan announced on Saturday that Kagami Yoshimizu's Lucky☆Star manga is resuming its serialization after over eight years on hiatus. The manga will switch to Kadokawa's Mitaina! magazine, beginning with the third issue on November 10.

Yoshimizu began drawing Lucky☆Star in Comptiq in 2004. The slice of life comedy series was also featured in multiple Kadokawa magazines, including Comp Ace, Shounen Ace, and Newtype. The manga entered hiatus in 2014 due to a new project Yoshimizu was developing. Kadokawa published the tenth volume in November 2013.

Kyoto Animation produced a 24-episode television anime in Spring 2007 and an original video anime in September 2008. Kadokawa Pictures USA and Bandai Entertainment originally licensed the anime in North America and released it in six DVD volumes from May 2008 to March 2009. Funimation reacquired the anime in August 2014 and released it on home video in July 2016.

Bandai Entertainment published the first eight volumes in English between March 2009 and February 2011 before the company went defunct. VIZ Media relicensed the manga for digital release in 2014 and published the eighth volume in February 2015.

Synopsis
When eating a chocolate cornet, which end do you begin with, the top or the bottom? Which side is the top and which is the bottom? For that matter, what is a chocolate cornet? The proper way to eat pastries is only one of the many everyday occurrences explored by the girls of Ms. Kuroi's class.

Meet Konata, an athletic and intelligent girl too dedicated to her favorite primetime anime to excel in anything but otaku culture; Miyuki, the cute, bespectacled living example of moe with an encyclopedic knowledge of all subjects; Kagami, the bitter-sweet, tough but shy straight-man to Konata's constant teasing and pranks; and her younger fraternal twin sister, Tsukasa, a kind but air-headed klutz. Witness this study in the human condition as our heroines explore the unexplored in questioning the ordinary! (Source: Bandai Entertainment, edited)

There’s also an announcement for a manga of Konata at age 31 as another spinoff. Combine this with Nichijou’s reserialization and the 4-koma comedy mangas going strong

I am kinda curious if this would lead to another season of Lucky Star. I kinda doubt it considering that is has been almost 15-16 years, but hey, there is a remake of spice and wolf, so I guess there is a chance.

This may sound weird but I want to see Konata in Genshiken.

What a blast from the past. I had been under the assumption that it ended.

More of Lucky☆Star? That's definitely something to be suprised of, I'm quite honestly curious to read the manga now to see how it continues

Even more avoidance towards what i pointed out, nice.


Dude, seriously. Just drop it and forget it. Trying to get the last word for yourself will only further prove that you are the one who is trying to set this on fire. Okay, I'll be smarter and just stop answering you.
Didn't play out the way you wanted huh? Alright, was nice chatting

Your answer is twice as long as mine, and again consists of trying to speculate on my motives and bait me into a argument. Please remind me again, who provokes this to fight?

If we rewind our "issue" that we've been having so far back to the beginning {go look if you need to} You will see that i explained my reason for wording it the way i did and what i was actually trying to say. I said that the fandom had no impact on it yet you ignored that and stated something along the lines of it not being a win for the fandom because no effort was put into it by the fandom, deliberately ignoring what i said about the fandom not being involved. Ive also looked through some comments of other people you've been talking to about my wording and they have explained to you as well that the term "huge win" in this particular case is used to express excitement. However you are deliberately ignored that as well. Your the instigator here and your aware of it and are just fringing ignorance to keep the heat up

Only you provoke the fight. All I said is that I think this idiom is stupid. But now you attack me personally, speculate about my motives and are generally openly passive-aggressive. It looks like you are just trying to shift the responsibility for the conflict to me in advance, so as not to feel guilty for your aggressive behavior. Classic.

you said it yourself, your picking a fight over something as trivial as you not liking the way something was worded, you must be pretty board, or at the very least you must have some kind of resentment for some reason when it comes to people proclaiming "wins", since that seems to be your main issue with me.

You don’t understand that it’s you who are dispersing this dialogue right now, right? And yes, I'd rather redirect the ego question to someone who can't get over the fact that someone on the internet didn't like his vocabulary.

My man, is your life so dull that you need to pick fights in order to get any kind of high or rush? Or is it an ego thing? It was a comment simply made to show my excitement for a show returning and i added the "fans" part in order to hopefully strike up conversations with like minded people. Instead however i ended up getting you, but that's the internet i guess.

It wasn't a victory because you didn't put in any effort to get it. And they didn't compete with anyone. This is what I wanted to point out when criticizing such "fandom" idioms. And it's not "another adaptation", it's just the original manga back from hiatus.

They didn't, its a win for the fandom because we're getting another adaptation for an anime well loved. Not sure if your question was genuine or instigative but either way this is what i meant by "huge win"
