The latest volume in Japan of the manga series Junjo Romantica has arrived and on the wraparound on it, it indicates that this Friday we’ll be finding out that there will be more anime of it – of some kind. The property, from Shungiku Nakamru, has had a really strong run overall for the genre with two previous TV series out there and OVA, which has been released in the US by Right stuf in the past and released in full, so having more of it come out seems pretty naturally. We usually see one or two series of this nature a year, which is tiny compared to the amount of anime that comes out, but they generally have a strong fan base about it.
Would you want to see another season of the series? Or is the property just going to be kept to the land of OVAs and OADs perhaps? Can Junjo Romantica support a theatrical feature?
Plot concept: Three very different couples caught up in a storm of pure romance!
Romantica: Misaki is struggling to prepare for his college entrance exams, so his brother arranges for a private tutor. But Misaki’s nightmare is just beginning when his tutor, Usami, comes on to him! How will Misaki ever manage to pass his exam? And why does he feel so mysteriously drawn to Usami?
Egoist: Just when Kamijou’s life is at its lowest, he has a chance meeting with a man who never lets anything hold him back: Nowaki. His name means “typhoon,” and he’s about to take Kamijou on a whirlwind ride that will turn everything upside-down.
Terrorist: Miyagi always seems to shrug off the cares of the world with a joke and a smile, but even he has problems, although he doesn’t let them show. Foremost is Shinobu, a relentless young man who’s adamant that they’re destined to be together.
