Yeah, I'm so happy! I was waiting for this!
Kuroko No Basket is going to end soon, WSJ needs to pump up its new promising sports manga...
I can't wait *w*
(I hope they'll keep the same seiyuu of the Vomic for Shouyou and Tobio...they were perfect!)


I doubt Kuroko no Basket will end after this match, but I guess we will just have to wait and see. I always pictured it ending after Kuroko and Kagami graduate highschool. xD

I see that this is a male volleyball team and not a female one. I'm in I like bromance in sports. I hope its just as interesting as Free! or Kuroko no Basket cause sports is my least favorite genre, but luckily I loved playing volleyball growing up even though I never played competitively.

This is the only HQ photo I found through Twitter, a small part where it's written Production I.G

Thanks. I would say if ANN wants to link the talk of a Production IG producer talking about volleyball anime with this High Kyuu adapted into an anime, this is the least they need to show before they talk as if the proof is self-evident, because it isn't.
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.

When the first chapter came out and I read it, I had a feeling that it would be nice anime material and would be adapted sooner or later, guess I was right :) now i have more motivation to keep up to date with it after stopping around chapter 20. I love watching volleyball so it'll be nice to see HQ!! animated ^^

I wonder if it's going to save the manga from being canned. Judging by recent ratings, it's leading the WSJ cancellation race.

If anything, it's Beelzebub that's next on the chopping block.


Well Beelzebub is more entertaining than big 3.

Pretty boring for a sports manga. Weird choice for an adaptation, but nothing surprises me.

Awe-som-azing!!!!

I'm always down for some sports anime. And this time it's volleyball! One of my favorite sports.

I've watched:
Basketball (Slam Dunk, Kuroko no Basket and Dear Boys)
Cycling (Nasu: Summer in Andalusia and Yowamushi Pedal this season)
Tennis (The Prince of Tennis)
Baseball (Major S1 and One Outs (on my PTW))
Soccer (Offside and Hungry Heart)
Swimming (Free!)
Boxing (Hajime no Ippo)
Athletics (Suzuka)
Ice Skating (Ginban Kaleidoscope)

A badminton anime would make my life even better... =)

^ That matches with the original announcement that it will start in Spring 2014 as April is the beginning of Spring cour.
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.

Hohoho. You know what? After reading the latest chapters, I think there might be some kind of romantic subplot.

If you were talking about "boyxgirl" romance, I mean.
Anyone surprised? è.é

Seiyuu for the main cast announced, and it is different from the seiyuu voicing the Vomic:

Hinata Shouyou: Murase Ayumu (Gatchaman Crowds: Rui, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun: Haru)

Kageyama Tobio: Ishikawa Kaito (Gargantia: Ledo, Tokyo Ravens: Harutora)
