Wednesday's issue of Weekly Shounen Sunday is announcing multiple new OVA adaptations.

Joujuu Senjin!! Mushibugyou, previously adapted to a TV series in Spring 2013, will receive multiple OVAs. The first special-edition DVD will be bundled with the manga's 15th volume, to be released on July 18th.

Nozo x Kimi, a spin-off series of Nozoki Ana, will also get an OVA adaptation. Nozoki Ana previously bundled an OVA adaptation with its final volume in February 2013. Weekly Shounen Sunday will also be announcing that Nozo x Kimi will be switching from Shounen Sunday Super's monthly schedule to its weekly serialization in the 26th issue.


Update
Fantasista Stella (sequel to Fantasista), Ane Log: Moyako Nee-san no Tomaranai Monologue, and Imawa no Kuni no Alice will also receive OVAs. Ane Log was adapted to drama CDs which also contained six flash anime shorts, while Imawa no Kuni no Alice had an anime CM last year.

Nozo x Kimi getting an OVA? I'm in. Which reminds me I should start reading Nozoki Ana.

Also I liked Mushibugyou so looking forward to that as well.

I'm very happy to hear the news of Mushibugyou. I've seen a few official art of Oharu, Hibachi and Kuroageha all wearing bikinis so I won't be surprised if we have one OVA based at the beach.^^

I'm hoping that one day the Mushibugyou manga will get licensed in English, perhaps by Seven Seas or Kodansha. Sadly, I can't see it happening, at least not in the near future.

I might give Nozo x Kimi a go. I'll see how I feel nearer the time. =)

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Huh, wasn't even aware there was a spin off of Nozoki Ana, I really liked the OVA to that so really should get around to reading it and then look forward to this.

Mushibugyou I have not heard of but looking into it and it looks like my kinda show.

Cool, I added all of the Manga on my plan to read list. I will wait for the OVAs :3
I know Mushibugyou, I'll probably watch the Anime first.
So, Nozo x Kimi is getting an OVA, huh. I read Nozoki Ana back in 2012, but for some reason, I didn't finish reading it. I am actually about to start reading Nozoki Ana again from the very start, but this time, I am going to finish it. I'll just finish my current Manga.
I'll probably read Nozo x Kimi after it finishes publishing, and I'll probably watch its OVA adaption first.

Meh whatever, not like most of their stuff get into my read list anyway. With Kaminomi ending just recently, the only series left for me are Gin no Saji, Arata, and Mushibugyou. Kyokai no Rinne didn't have the same charm as Inuyasha, and Denpa Kyoushi just conveniently turned into harem with pretentious dialogues, so i dropped them some time ago. Aside from Detective Conan, i don't see any currently running series in WSS that i could generally consider "hit". Which is a shame since they have provided some more quality works several years ago (Cross Game, Kekkaishi, Yakitate! etc) that until this very point still hold special place in my memory. Have to wonder if it's partly the reason why their readership have been declining in recent years.

And btw, i think the reasons why these OVAs get simultaneously produced is because WSS staff have been in desperate to get their series sell.

Being OVAs there shouldn't be censors I would hope.

This is why Nozoki Ana and Nozomi x Kimio make sense as OVAs. TV Anime versions would be white light half of the time.
