Welcome to this new thread, devoted to rumors surrounding Anime, and their debunking or affirmation. Feel free to post any facts/info you have here, and I will alter this head post to reflect current events.
Anime Sequels???
If you have any rumors reguarding series or specific events/characters you wish to add, I will try and research them and see just how true they are.#nosmileys
Anime Sequels???
Anime Title | Details of Rumors | Likelyhood | Notes |
Beserk | The continuation of the story as based on the events from the manga. | 3/5 | The american distributers of Beserk expressed interest in helping with the production of a second season. Rumor has it that as soon as next year, we may see the continuation of the story that began many years ago. Also, confimred for later this year, there will be a video game for the PS2 based on the continued story. Prepare for the Skullknight. |
Kenshin | Rurouni Kenshin, dealing with Soujiro's journey after the Kyoto Arc. | 0.5/5 | I have yet to find any real evidence this is true |
Slayers | Fourth Season | 1/5 | I have not been able to find any evidence on this. Rumors of a 4th season have been floating on the net since the 3rd ended. I would say that is is not out of the relm of possibility however. Fans have been demanding more Slayers, and the producers helped kindle that demand by releasing a 5th movie last year. |
Outlaw Star | Outlaw Star 2 | 0.5/5 | Unlikely. Could not find any real data to back this up yet |
DragonBall | DragonBall:Cash Cow | 1.5/5 | We need another illegitament DB series like we need another hole in our heads. However rumors on the net have been flying lately reguarding this. With the spike of profits from the US releases, I have little doubt that Studio Toriyama has been contemplating this. Funi would also no doubt push for this. I have found a few sources indicating a launch of another DB series, but still, for the most part, its in rumorsville. |
DragonBall | The Live Movie-USA | 0.5/5 | In 2001 it was announced, however, luckly, this horse has seemed to have died. I have found nothing confirming a true dbz movie being made. I have found some info, but nothing reguarding directors or actors (Jet Li is a popular rumor). The Funi site does have some polls reguarding a DBZ Movie, but for all current circumstances, this seems to be just for fun. |
