HOTD Back in the Grave: Restart “Just a One-off”

Highschool of the Dead fans are aghast at the news that the much anticipated restart of the manga is actually just a one-off “special publication,” with the time-frame for actual resumption “undetermined.”
The latest announcement states that the publication date of the next chapter is “undecided” (although this does at least suggest it is on the cards) leaving distressed fans to wonder how many years they will have to wait for regular serialisation to resume and how many more years it will take for enough material to sustain a new season to accumulate.
Most of the blame has been placed on the work having “one of those” mangaka – i.e. one whose fascination with eroge or IdolMaster exceeds their interest in their own creations – leaving the future of the series in continued doubt.

I feel like I got bitchslapped by this news.
Indeed, a pretty accurate description of my sensation while reading it.
The guy is lazy.
here here
Did you mean hear?
There's two people behind HsotD. The writer and the artist. The artist has been keeping himself busy, the author has just been a lazy fuck.
You mean "He Was" Doing Triage X. Haven't seen a new chapter in years...
He probably means the writer, Daisuke Sato
@15:06 - which I actually prefer... that needs to become an anime, now!
How is Shouji Sato lazy? He is still doing Triage X.
It would seem like the author has a vast side-income somewhere. Otherwise...how does he keep afloat?
[Screams internally]
proof idolmaster otaku are the worst
The article is off that the blame is on the mangaka. It's the writer Daisuke Satou that fucked up and kept the series on hiatus not just once but twice. For fuck's sake the manga started 2006 and only 29 chapters were published.
soo... the manga isn't go out yet?
Just as long as we get Magipoka season two before this than that is fine.
NO! STOP INSULTING THE GOD OF SATURN AND DEATH ITSELF! STOP!
Schizophrenia, much?
Extreme form of Chuunibyou. Not very endearing now, is it?
03:58 11/04/2013
tsk...eroge.
yay yay you is dead. what now?
somehow shizo isnt endearing too...
STFU! I KILL YOU SHIT HEAD!
NO STUPID FUCKING SHIT FUCK! IT'S RELIGION SHIT HEAD! NOW DIE WITH HELL!
SHIT FUCK ASS BITCH AMEN.
I can understand that he could be more interested in other things than his own creation but he could at least write the scenario and let others do the rest of the work once the scenario is good enough.
So much for restoring my faith in humanity....
IT'S ALREADY LONG GONE DUE TO THE REPTILIANS.
I'm not sure if disappointing,
Or just expectations lowered....
they just get lazy .. or maybe they cant think any other plan on how will the story goes on ..
it means ETC - End of Thinking Capability
how disappointing mangakas .. lol ..
This is part of the reason why reality is a shitty game! The Gameplay sucks and the balance is way off, not to mention that the anti-cheat software only works until you accumulate a certain amount of money. xD
Inazuma should just take over writing and art duties and produce it from now on. Either that or do a spinoff with another set of survivors to keep the series from fading away from peoples' minds.
I read the new chapter today, Sankaku really needs to check the news properly....
HOTD Darkness please...yeah I know it's kinda old already...
probably he's too rich by now to have work.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will the satirically kill more korean showbiz personalities this time around?
No need for that if the pretty ladies couldn't show up at the funeral anyway.
Better than nothing.
It's kay though, we have a lot of good anime this season. We can wait for a bit longer.
It has to be a money issue. I'd like to know how much gets paid Sato for the TERRIFIC work he did in every area: character design, storytelling, top notch artistic quality, accuracy at mechanical, weapon, vehicles and building design, etc. How much doe$ all of that worth? I would love to now how much a CRAP artist like Eiichiro Oda is paid and how much Sato gets paid. That will solve the "mistery" for sure.
sighs..
still waiting for Berserk 334. The Fantasia arc is shit but I don't give a fuck.
now I understand why Berserk went from violence, rape, gore to semi-moe garbage fused with Super Sentai with the berseker armor. I mean, half of the new cast are kids, cute witches and a mermaid that is always flashing her tits. The drastic change in direction not only took me by surprise but it blew my mind too. Berserk has become just too cute for its own good....
It's just business, for the current generation of anime fans :P
Don't forget the cursed pirates.
and tentacle porn.
I disagree. The last arc was certainly not as good as those before but it was still pretty good. The only problem with it is that it separated itself from the main story when we were all excited about Griffith's army and all. The current arc will surely become on of the best with what's at stake right now.
ok that makes Sato the biggest troll in the history of the business, well played (;_;)
No, I think Hiroe Rei still has him beat.
This is obviously a money issue. I would like to know how much gets paid for the TERRIFIC work he did with the manga at any level: character design, storytelling, top notch artistic quality, accuracy at mechanical, weapon, vehicles and building design, etc. How much doe$ that worth??? I would love to now. I would love to now how much a CRAP artist like Eiichiro Oda is paid and how much Sato gets paid. That will solve the "mistery" for sure.
...Well fuck...
