Alot of people really don't want to let go and saying that they still want one more season.Do you guys really think a fourth season would be good?...you know,just to see them again...or sumtin..or are you satisfied enough with 3 seasons.I myself,think the last episode of Origination handled it well,wrapping up the past, present, and future adventures/moments in ARIA....Although i would like to see the girls once more,i think it would really be best if it is left this way...However,if some surprising news like anything about ARIA getting a movie, new OVA or whatever comes up,i would gladly still watch it.No matter what it is...coz frikkin luv this series.

We have seen what has happened to good series with too many seasons and episodes. Lucky Star was a great anime, and its OVA throughly disappointed. Shakugan no Shana NEEDED to stop at its first season, now it looksl ike the infinite season trend will continue. Even greater legends like Rurouni kenshin was brutally murdered by its 3rd season. So the anwser to the question? No, no and hell no.

Now I -REALLY- agree with that. And I want to see everybody grown up, and their juniors, not just Akari and Ai. At least an official Amano picture.

I don't see how more episodes would change anything as long as they followed the source material like they always have. There have already been over 40 episodes.

The question is if they have enough source material for a 4th season. I don't know about that shit. If they do, why not. Obviously it'd be a bad idea if they just made it up as they went.

One of the first things I decided when I started working on this, that the original Aria cast only appears once or twice as a cameo. Over the chapters, they'll pop up there and there, and eventually, at least the protagonist will meet all of them (first is Akari, of course). I decided, because I didn't want Lot's And Lot's of Characters. There was a previous fanfiction project of mine that was ruined because of this. However, at least Woody is a frequent side-character, appearing in almost all chapters. The others are not. Not to mention, that the story mainly take place in Natural's time.
Just as I decided, the story is about "an another circle of Aqua". (Mainly: Four sylphs, an undine, a gnome, and a salamander.)

Lately I've been talking a lot about this fanfiction of mine, right? Sorry. -_-

Fourth season where it's just a complete pardy of events from the past.

Seriously, though, a fourth season would just be plain greedy fanwank. Like it's already been mentioned, the story has come full circle like what the mangaka intended. It would also go against the last message of the series about moving on into independence. It's time to quit beating the dead horse already - Aria is now part of your fondest memories so we can't keep using it as a place of security.

An OVA with two half-episodes would be nice. Split between Akari's final Cait Sith encounter and Alice's Epiphania episode.

Definately not a new season though.

A new season is a go for me. If they had to create new material for the season, then as long as Kozue Amano was behind the material it should be fine. If random people from the studios start popping up random ideas (Cait Sith meets Woody!) (Cait Sith kidnaps Akari and Akatsuki must save her from the clutches of the cat army...) then of course, the season would blow.

Thinking again, my latter idea seems rather fitting for a picture drama. @_@;

A series of OVAs focusing on each of the new Prima Undines would be fantastic too. And an OVA featuring Ai as a new Undine would be great. *_*

You can't finish any better than the Origination, you just can't. If you want more Aria, just watch the episodes over again.

Watching Ai go through what Akari and co.has done before would be interesting..

I very much liked the script in the Drama CD for the Origination Perfect Guidebook and thought that it would be a perfect special episode to wrap up the story if it was to be animated.

Honestly, with episode 7 of the Pictures Drama and that Perfect Guidebook Drama CD as compensation, I could just go back re-watching the old episodes and nostalgize Aria to my heart's content when I missed it. However, I wouldn't mind more of it, especially with what's going on with the three new Prima before any of them taking in their kohai (how they'd make impressions, become well-known and fulfill their dreams as the great Prima as their seniors, etc).

- Himeya Company hold a opera performance on sea in conjunction with Aika's wedding.
- The return of Cait Sith & headless women as an unexpected event during the performance. Some drama here.

The Anime is desperately in need of a fourt season because they left out about 8 chapters in the manga. Including Cait Siths goodbye and Akatsukis Horrorscope with Akari (which made me go LOL)
If we will add the character introductions that the anime left out as well, then thats about 18 chapters that was left out. Thats alot for a manga that has only 60 chapters

And yes, we also needed a fourth Season because we still dont know Akari's past in Man Home and the reason why Alicia choosed Akari who is million miles away instead of just some local girl for an apprentice.
By the way, ever read ""Dear Akari-Sama" yet? It was already translated by amanocentricscans and you could find it there. WARNING, contains a good dose of mind fucking

No. I love it the way it is now. I read the manga and there were some nice chapters left out, but nothing too critical. Plus Athena's voice actress Kawakami Tomoko has passed away after Origination (RIP), so I doubt it could happen.

If someone needs more Aria, there are a lot of Drama CDs (~10-11h from what I have on HD) and 2 Visual Novels (somewhere between 20-30h) with new content. In japanese though.

Dude, the anime totally killed the relationship between Akari and Akatsuki! They didnt animated the episodes which showed Akatsukis growing interest with Akari like his denial when they shared their horrorscope

Yeah, as if missing one chapter kills all the others, which are included in the anime. Nothing even happened in there, except an awkward realization, which did nothing to make Akari more concious of Akatsuki and the guy himself still stayed in denial. The rose chapter and gazing statue chapter are important enough to show what little interest they have for each other. They also show him visiting Akari in the epilogue, which is perfectly adequate for Aria's very light romance.

Bottom line, nothing happened in the manga and what little did, like drinking some coffee or whatever, is certainly not totally killing off their relationships. I mean, it was plain as day in the anime. I have no idea how someone could miss it.

Sorry for focusing that message for only the 2 of them but either way, let me tell you that: IT DID KILLED IT!

Aria was a slow paced drama and episodic that it seems so simple yet every single chapter that Amano Kozue created is just too fatal to be left out for it carried alot of character development and not so
Heres one:
1. Every character introductions imediately revealed the characters interests and dislikes but not yet their secrets. In the anime, since they didnt animated the character introduction, I was like a blindfolder soldier who only enjoyed the series after I read the manga which explained what the director of Aria thought will not matter.
If it werent for me stopping it for a while to read the manga, I probably wouldnt even understand the ranking of Undines and what was happening with the ending. (Though luck to others who was not so lucky)

2. "The Marriage of the Sea" chapter had a light romance in it yet just in case you havent noticed. It was the fatal flaw that could have been the only clue to whom Alicia married. (search for "Aria WMG TV Tropes"). It was also my favorite chapter and consists alot of symbolism that only romantic people can truly get.

3. Alice and Woody's brotherly love was killed >:(

You may not take it personally but to ignore 16 chapters of character developments of a manga that extends for only 60 chapters is a crime that a hardcore fan like me can never forgive but neighter can I hate for the director has almost successfully adapted the same Magic that Amano has used. (Thank God)

By the way, may I ask, if you are not a hardcore fan, then how come you still read the manga after you watched the anime?
