At the Dengeki Festivals 2017 event (Game no Dengeki Kanshasai 2017, Dengeki Bunko Spring Festival 2017, Dengeki Comics 2017), it was announced that Keiichi Sigsawa and Kohaku Kuroboshi's Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World light novel will receive a new TV anime adaptation.

Cast
Kino: Aoi Yuuki (Gosick)
Hermes: Soma Saito (Rokka no Yuusha)

Kino no Tabi was originally serialized in MediaWorks' Dengeki HP in March 2000 before the magazine was discontinued in October 2007. ASCII Media Works began publishing the series under the Dengeki Bunko imprint in March 2000, and published the 20th volume in October 2016. A spin-off titled Gakuen Kino began publishing under the same imprint in July 2006 and currently has five volumes in print. The series was previously adapted into a 13-episode TV anime that aired between April and July 2003. The series also received both a prequel and sequel movie adaptation. ADV Films licensed the series for North American distribution and released it in four DVD volumes between February and June 2004. Sentai Filmworks plans to re-release the anime on DVD on June 6.

This is pretty good news since I did liked Kino's Journey.

But my question is... who will be the staff for this and which will be the studio/production company taking it?

Btw I love Aoi Yuuki (ironically I almost posted a SAO picture from Konno Yuuki which she voiced her as well and she did Sakura from the original one). I can't wait for her performance though.

Holy shit. This is one of my favorite series. Never expected this news.
I'm wondering if we're getting a sequel or if it'll be a readaptation like FMA Brotherhood & HxH 2011.

Can simply hope they can pick at least a good staff team, but not sure. But yeah hopefully they don't fuck up this one tbh.

Words can't even express how happy this makes me feel like holy SHIT. 14 god damn years later someone finally gets up off their ass and decides to make more. This is long, long, long overdue but nonetheless I am ridiculously excited.

Btw, I really hope this will be new adaptation, and not just sequel.

First anime was really beautiful, something amazing, but considering we have new voice actors for Kino and Hermes, I would like complete new treatment for already animated stories too, with 2017 animation that is.

I don't want this to be remembered as a sequel, but whole anime on its own.

Holy shit, is this for real? One of my favourite shows! Too bad the original director is dead, he did a fantastic job. The key visual doesn't make me feel very optimistic though. That's not Kino but some sexualised moe girl... : / I hope they do the series justice. It's one of those shows that's doesn't work well if they mess up the atmosphere, minimalistic way of display and Kino's attitude. Let's see what kind of staff they are going to hire.

It's not. All J.C Staff can do well is moe and comedy. Absolutely not fit to do Kino's Journey if they don't hire outsiders, in which case it's really moot to talk about the studio. Shaft is a good Studio but I don't think their usual style would fit this at all. I would put a lot more trust in Shaft to hire the right people than I would put in J.C Staff.
