Fans of classic tsundere anime Shakugan no Shana have been aware of the impending release of a new series for some time, but in a recent interview Geneon all but dated it to April:
“In autumn ‘that title’ which everyone loves will get its continuation.”
Since they have dated plenty of their other big titles already, it seems Shana’s return is the likely outcome…









can't wait but fail on what's her names bum cheek
Yoshida, and don't you ever forget it.
I'll watch only for her. Shana is too annoying.
SADIST!
Urusai, Urusai, Urusai :D
Kono Baka Inu!
WDF!?
It's yoshida who's the annoying betch. Shana's friggen <3
LISTEN TO THIS MAN!
Everyone forgets it, Yoshida is failtastic. It's all about Carmel and Shana, lets be honest.
Yay, finally more Shana.
win
Can't wait to see how they tie sns2 into the on-going novel plot in sns3.
most likely without love for Yuji or whatever his name was. Lol, but i remember margery daw wtf.
great!
lets hope for no delays
Can't wait.
While the other tsundere series have been decent enough, nothing beats a bit of Shana action. ^_^
Srsly.
Shana-chan<3~
Except for that other series where the characters were also designed by Noizi, which for some fucked-up reason keeps getting put off and off and off and off and -
Crazy Loli Yuri Sex with Shana? Will the third season be watchable?
Let's hope it's not utter crap like the second season.
It wasn't THAT bad... just... a little rushed, sudden, and a little gay at some parts... they just distributed the plot badly between episodes...
No, Shana-2 was THAT bad. It pretty much destroyed everything good, what first season had.
I really don't think that shana-3 is a good idea.
Yay! Flaming swords and violent women!
Stop reminding me of Kaze no Stigma.. need more!
Ontopic:
I'll second your yay, yay!
Really? I never heard that they announced a third season. I just want them to stop fucking up and filling the damn show with fillers. It should be back on track with the cliffhanger they gave us but who knows. The pacing was absolutely horrible in the second season and they just need to stop with the school and the stupid friends nobody really cares about. I'm looking forward to it but by no means anywhere near as much as the second season.
One can only hope.
I actually quite enjoyed the slice of life, but then again, I backlogged the show and watched it in one shot.
I've been waiting for this.
THis actually has me a little worried as I don't think the plot in the novels has advanced sufficiently to provide enough content for another series, which means that this will probably be an original content one...
And that can't be good...
It can't be THAT close, can it?
Seems like an interesting new. Not that they are usually boring, just this one is ... very very interesting.
Yeah !!, more Hekate ! (bad loli wizard RuleZ)
YAY! More Shana-tan! Oh and Shana too ^^
Wow. And I just blogged the other day on how much I'd like a Shana sequel. Amazing.
...................................FUCK YEAH!
Fuck Year
FUCK YEAH!!!!!!
Oh god no...Season 2 was bad enough.
It was obvious is was coming since s2 ended. Not exactly a fan, but I do want some more tsundere loli.
Ofc it was obvious but we didn`t know HOW FUCKING LONG WE HAVE TO WAIT?
Shut up shut up shut up shut up
Man can't wait to see more of my lil' shana-chan!
I liked both the Dubbed & Subbed versions. Am I the only one who wants Shana to get 'older'- lol. She's too little. It's cute and all but I like the supporting cast more- Wilhimina Carmel - Manipulator of Objects (or "Specialist at Everything" in the USA) and Majorie Daw and book...I'd like to see a spin-off with them.
Shana's great but they need to flesh her out more- all she does is eat Mellon Bread and bitch...she was much more mysterious and aloof in the first series- she lost alot of her charm in the second series.
Agreed. There MUST be MORE Wilhelmina meido greatness.
Agreed. Wilhelmina = teh win.
Alrighty... Since no one has actually laid this out yet, I might as well...
Season 1 was decently close to the light novels, aside from attempting to have a conclusion since at that point, a second season wasn't a certainty, which is why a lot of people enjoyed it more than season 2. The more great source material you draw from, the less likely you are to screw anything up.
Season 2 however... It started off drawing very little from the light novels which is why people were able to notice a major drop in the series and then suddenly witnessing the series they were used to watching return when they showed that episode regarding something in Marjory's past though again its end was a bit weak due to having to whip up another semi conclusion in addition to having to account for all the crap they had included that didn't take place in the light novels.
As it stands, there is only really one and a half novels worth of source material to really draw upon at this moment before they rely on filler so I'm not exactly too fond of the third season coming so soon. They might be able to make the source material last a bit longer by extending Yuji's breakdown across several episodes since they didn't really include any of it occuring in the second season, but it is probably going to be a bit awkward regardless.
Oh well, I'll still watch it because Shana is the tsundere goddess in my eyes, and as long as it still retains the aspects in it to make Shana moe to me, I'll enjoy it.
Shana was not that bad in SOL mode...god Macross frontier was destroyed by it..............
urusai urusai urusai !!!
URUCHAI IS SUPERIOUR
THE POST ABOVE ME IS CORRECT.
Another season, another moe heroine.
OH YEAHHHHHH!!!!!
NEED MOAR LOLI AND DANDERE MAID!
wish that phail J.C. taff dont ruin my wife and harem anime series anymore
but still, it's pretty far away from now lol
So, are they talking about the Australian release then? There aren't a whole lot of places where April is in autumn. ;)
That's what I'd like to know... what's the deal with April and Autumn?
And this is just speculation, ya know. There's nothing there that confirms Shana III. "That title"? As a Shanafag, this is exciting news, but I'd like to see something more concrete.
unless J.C. Staff's going to release another To Aru Majutsu no Index after a season break.
Let's just wait for another April 1 confirmation
Fuck Yeah~!
More loli tsundere Shana~ <3
And thus with this turn of events there still is no new Haruhi.
well i expect to this new season to continue with the novels because the last season focused most in the Shana-Yuuji-Yoshida thing and well not much fighting...
Hey, what's Kyon-ko doing in the background.
My otaku knowledge is fail.
That's Shana with a ponytail...
Well um . . . yeah, why's Kyonko at the background?
btw, I do hope this new series can reclaim some fans it lost for whatever reason . . . I'm anticipating it though
Shana is not my favour.
I just want to hear Rie.
wah this can't wait... lolz from Shakugan No Shana 3
FUCK YEAH SHANA SAN ^^>>>I HATE THAT YOSHIDA BITCH FUCK HER FUCK HER FUCK HER SO IN THE END YUJI CHOSE SHANA RITE<<< ? :D PLZ REPLY
yea of course...thats why she smilz

YEEESSSSS FInally... I can watch another one of those animes that marked me... Got fed up of Ranka from Macross Frontier... missing ladies with an attitude...
(Thinks) OMGWTF, I forgto Yoshida is here....
Why do I love this horrible sereis so much? :*( It had such an aweful ending at the end of the last one! It can't end like that!
More Shana, less Yoshida please.
i cant wait for the 3rd season
