It was announced during AnimeJapan 2015 that the Aquarion franchise will be receiving a third series, Aquarion Logos, and a special OVA to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the series.

Aquarion Logos Synopsis
In a world where social networks have greatly expanded in society, we use words that don't mean anything to us. However, in the world of Logos, these words have caused irregular incidents that affect the real world. The Sousei (Voice of Creation) group and Akira Kaibuki face the danger of the world while trying to solve the meaning of these words. What will be the newfound power if these words meet Aquarion? The new age that has reached 10 years of coexisting with robots is starting!

I have no expectation for this series at all :)

Mar 27, 2015 4:39 AM by ShanaFlame

Are the first two series any good? Won't watch this if they aren't.

I only watched the 2nd one, still need the to watch the 1st :(

Same, though I did read about the first series when I realized that I was watching a sequel and was like what's everyone talking about? But yeah, seeing Hamatora (and Psycho Pass 2) script writer up there...NOPE. Well I'll still watch a few episodes just cuz I'm curious.

Yeah I tried to get into this series, just didn't really click with me. Something about the characters having orgasms with their mobile suits kinda threw me off.

Might give it another chance some day.

I'll check out the first season in the relatively-close future.

Mar 22, 2015 12:14 AM by Alluka-Chama

Sounds cool, first season here I come

Mar 21, 2015 8:28 PM by uhm

Mar 21, 2015 8:23 PM by Nozila

Interesting news, haven't thought about Aquarion since i was in my very early teens. I'll have to rewatch them and freshen up xD.

Mar 21, 2015 7:52 PM by jimbobyoo

Wtf is this Aldnoah shit

How come the images are stamped on the right side like post-its

There's some conspiracy brewing over here

Mar 21, 2015 7:38 PM by zetsu_shoren

Mar 21, 2015 6:19 PM by SSSS_Shunaria

Here's hoping it'll be better then the second series.
Maybe I'm just too attached to the first, though.

Mar 21, 2015 5:54 PM by ColorlessKing

Sousei no Aquarion is still the best for me but I will check it in case it's not as cheap as Evol... even if after watching the PV I find the CD not really appealing.

Mar 21, 2015 4:58 PM by vnusia

Any news if this is a sequel?

Mar 21, 2015 4:14 PM by deg

Oh yeah an I pretty sure Eiiichi Sato is this guy http://myanimelist.net/people/10518/Sato_Hidekazu
