Anime Hype: JoJo is Back Baby!, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid S, Undead Unluck & Witch Watch

 

 Ohh, I'm so happy to report that JoJo is back with a whole new series. No date on release, but we're getting the next arc from the manga, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 6: Stone Ocean as an anime. This arc follows yet another JoJo, Jolyne Cujoh. She's the daughter of possibly the most iconic JoJo, Jotaro Kujo from Stardust Crusaders.

Can't wait for this utterly messed up adventure to unfold on the small screen. We'll give details when it reaches us in America.

We're also kind of happy it's getting made as there was some controversy with the production company behind the current series, David Production.
 
Read the article below about the animation director claiming to not be paid.
It'll be interesting if animation director Kohei Ashiya comes back after all that, I believe he was eventually paid. If Kohei Ashiya doesn't come back, the series will look very different from all the previous chapters, as he was the director up until this point.



Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid S is gonna be coming via Crunchyroll this July. Who doesn't love a Dragon Maid? It's gonna be subtitled for us to enjoy. It already looks like an insane continuation of the series.

Undead Unluck, Vol. 1will be out this May via Viz.


Here's this new weird titles synopsis: All Fuuko wants is a passionate romance like the one in her favorite shojo manga. Unfortunately, her Unluck ability makes that impossible. But just as Fuuko hits rock bottom, Andy sweeps her off her feet—literally! Now she’s become Andy’s unwilling test subject as he works to find a way to trigger a stroke of Unluck big enough to kill him for good. However, when the pair discovers a secret organization is hunting them, it puts Andy’s burial plans on hold.


 Oh, and if you haven't already read the new manga from the creator of Sket Dance & Astra Lost in Space. Read Witch Watch a slice of life comedy manga about a klutzy teenage witch girl who falls in love with her childhood best friend who happens to be her familiar and have ogre strength. It's good ol' classic manga you might read like Ranma 1/2.
