Mob Psycho 100 will be receiving an anime adaptation from studio Bones. The manga series was created by ONE who many people know for also creating One Punch Man. The series was also voted #2 for most wanted anime adaptation from Ura Sunday magazine back in the beginning of the year.

That does sound pretty good.

If its anything like OPM, sign me up. Bones is a good studio but seeing what Madhouse did with OPM, I kind of wish it was them.

As part of the Madogatari event which celebrates 40 years of studio SHAFT's neck turning works, a new concept movie will be shown for Puella Magi Madoka Magica tomorrow.

I am hopeful that the new Madoka stuff fixes that horrible ending of the third film.(Which in my opinion never needed a movie in the first place)

I actually liked the ending of rebellion, which seems to be rare but I do want a sequel.

 

[devilrules666]

Well at least they can expand on the ending and do something with it.
