Everyone in Black Lagoon’s stained, Rock too. Even so, there are characters who I think deserve the respect. It seems that apart from Balalaika and Mr Chang, nearly the rest of Roanapur has lost even the slightest sense of chivalry. Balalaika, despite being the leader of one of, if not the most powerful criminal organisation in Roanapur, [...]

As was maybe to be expected, the rumor has now been confirmed! So you can expect lots more action from Revy and Rock in the near future. After watching [...]

That’s right, you naysayers: Black Lagoon is now confirmed (via Moon Phase. If you stare at that teeny-tiny cover long enough you’ll see ANIME DAI SANKI SEISAKU KETTEI (”Anime Third Season Work Decision”)! Mmm, more delicious Revy. And Balalaika. And Shenhua. And Sawyer. Man, Rei Hiroe is good at coming up with these psycho chicks, isn’t [...]

After nearly a one-month hiatus because of the new season, I'm back to doing Daily Doses. This particular post is a bit of a backlog post for the big items from the past few weeks. If you watched the first Gundam 00 series and haven't yet been spoiled about a certain something, I urge you NOT to go to the official site. I made the mistake of doing so after I saw the commercial that aired after this weekend's episode of CODE GEASS, and I got spoiled when I checked out the details on the list of Mobile Suits. New Anime Announcements (list almost entirely courtesy of MOON PHASE)      • BLACK LAGOON is getting a third series.      • Kyou no Go no Ni is also getting a television anime (instead of more OVAs).      • ef - a tale of melodies anime has been announced for this Fall season.      • Umineko no Naku Koro ni is getting an anime.      • Shounen manga Kuroshitsuji is getting an anime.      • Mystery/supernatural novel series Mouryou no Hako is getting an anime that'll be         produced by Madhouse and will have character designs done by CLAMP.      • Love adventure game Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka will be getting an anime this Fall. This         series is going to have a truckload of voice talent, including the likes of Hirano Aya,         Kugimiya Rie, Inoue Marina, and Tanaka Rie. The Tales of the Abyss anime adaptation will air this Fall on MBS, meaning it has a good chance of taking Macross F's Thursday timeslot since Gundam 00 is likely replacing CODE GEASS R2. The White Album anime adaptation has a website now with news that the series will start January of 2009. It will feature Hirano Aya and Mizuki Nana in two of the lead roles. And finally, in the aftermath of the leaked BONES document incident, MOON PHASE confirms that he got word a while ago that there is indeed a new Full Metal Alchemist series in the works - an original manga version - likely to be officially announced at the end of the year. If you find anything that you think I should mention on any particular day’s Daily Dose, please send me an email with the words “ANIME NEWS” somewhere in the subject line.

Black Lagoon has been one of my favorite anime series and now Moonphase has reported a tipoff that the series may be getting its 3rd season based on the ongoing manga series. Since its just a rumor,  there are no further information available at the moment. Well the manga should have advanced pretty far by now, so [...]

According to Moon Phase, which brought us the oh-so-wonderful announcement that there will be a Season 3 of Black Lagoon, has now gleaned to me that Kyou no Go no Ni will get an Anime adaptation as well.Sauce HERE.Personally, I didn't even watch the OVA, but I might be interested in a TV series...Apparently it only has 1 volume so far as a manga, serialized in Bessatsu Young Magazine.Also, I said Tales of the Abyss trailers would be here right?HERE YOU GO:<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9J2wvn_cgKw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9J2wvn_cgKw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>I also realize that today, Chiba TV airs episode 2 of Zero no Tsukaima ~princesses no rondo~As tribute, and due to my flu, which prevents me from going out anywhere, here's a sketch of Mai Waifu~PREEMPTIVE DISCLAIMER: I suck at drawing, and I tried, as far as my n00b skillz will let me, to produce a Light-Novel-style Louise.DISREGARD THAT I HAS NOOB SKILLZ.

Black Lagoon has had confirmation of its third season; other details are yet lacking. Not particularly surprising given the commercial success of the series, or the amount of manga available to work with, but still. The rather laconic source (not that this report is any better).
