Caught up with the manga pretty quick. Really enjoying it and now I'm super pumped for the anime. I wonder how long it's gonna be though. The manga only has 43 chapters at the moment.

Probably through the Boros stuff. Should have enough content for a S2 after that I think. Beyond that I don't know unless ONE really steps it up (currently on Ch.99).

The manga is still well behind the low art web comic.

I guess they could draw from the original web comic at a certain point, but I'd want the manga art as a reference :p

lol they got some work ahead of them if they're gonna animate the Boros stuff.

Never read the manga but have always been curious. Madhouse doing it makes it a necessary show to watch. <3 Madhouse

Madhouse is a good choice, but their work with Parasyte really fell flat under alot of episodes. The animation was really really stale, alot of times.
 
Gintama anime coming back

Soma anime and OPM anime

other then Soma..... I know that both of the other two will be awesome seeing as those studios have a good track record

can't wait

AWWWW YEAH!!!!!!!

Let's hope they didn't put half of their budget into that glorified trailer and the quality transfers off onto every episode.

On the contrary, I feel like they only put stuff that's been finished very early in the animation process

They can animate quite a bit. Murata can give them pointers of the character designs. Besides that, they could use One manga to continue, if it's succesfull.

Anyway, this is one really great year for animes.

Thanks for translating! Saw the character news on Twitter and was wondering what they said about sonic and tornado.

Fuck Yeah License-less Rider!

I've loved the most recent chapters and I can't wait to see this animated.
Given the slow pace of the Manga, are we all expecting major filler?

I actually don't think that's a terrible idea in this case. Half the fun of OPM to me has been the incredibly stupid heroes of the association and since generally few of them are seen, they can have fun making up some really great stupid heroes.
