I really hope this "Final" season is split into multiple parts to make the quality as good as possible, Especially since the manga hasn't quite finished yet. I really don't want another GoT season 8.

While I assume they're scheduling both the manga and anime to end at the same time I'd rather they just didn't make a final season. Studio WIT was an awful studio but it sure is a drunk move to accept a schedule this bad in an industry where bad schedules are the norm. MAPPA really trying to beat WIT in that department lol

Was this announced already? It's the first I've heard of it.

OOh Sriggan...got the move and I love it ( could do with it getting a BD release), hopefully the series is just as good as the movie.

The new adaptation was greenlit a year or two ago but this is the first time that we had a proper update since. It's the first of many David Production Netflix projects I believe.

Heads up - Funimation has revealed a new visual and name change for Higurashi: When They Cry New. It's technically a spoiler and a sequel apparently.

Funimation will be ceasing its FuniNow Prime channel from November 11th.

Its been pretty w@nk recently and hasn't been updated in 8+ months so kind of expecting this.

Honestly FuniNow is a joke, I can't get it to work on anything to be honest. Even on my PC the player messes up and I can't enjoy the show. I was forced to cancel my sub and watch Higu through other means
