I still don't quite understand the logic (or lack there-of) of announcing the timeslot in a more-than-24 hours format. 26:58 A.M.? Seriously, why not just write it as 02:58? It's the same thing, and easier to understand.

Yes! More Esper Basketball starting January!! There's always Slam Dunk for classic and (almost) realistic basketball actions; and kuroko for over-the-top and engaging basketball drama is definitely a nice addition to my anime-viewing experience.


Hmmm...now that I think of it, Production IG (Wit Studio included) has two shows in 2015 winter season (Kuroko S3 and Rolling Girls) and one movie (Psycho-Pass the movie), one upcoming show (for now) in 2015 (Seraph) I sure hope they can get more shows in 2015.

No is not! The day changes! By saying 26.58 A.M they are saying that is in that day at night, 10th January, 2 hours and 58 minutes after midnight! If they put 2:58 A.M they have to indicate the next day, 11th January.

In the end is just a matter of convention and easiness of understanding.

If you'll write a date as Jan. 10th, 26:58 A.M., or Jan 11th, 02:58 A.M., which one is more easily understandable and comprehensible?

The Jan. 10th 26:58 A.M! Why? Because with that I know that it will be the night of Jan. 10th. Instead of somewhere in the next day.
Note that majority of people perceive next day as after their night sleep. Here the objective of night anime is that you prolong your day and sleep later.
Taking that majority of people wakes up around 6 A.M, that is the time where they change the day.

I find the time listed to work out just fine imo since Japan's ahead of most places in the West so it's easy to adapt and adjust. As for the third season, I really hope to see a PV soon.

The fan disc will also have a digest version of the talk show at the Hirakata Park ~Kiseki no Tenjikai~ (Exhibition of Miracles) event, as well as six character music videos, the second season ending alternating part gallery, the clean opening and ending sequences, ver. 0 of the first-cours opening.


Maybe I'm the only that cares, but the BDs were missing the creditless OP and ED and I was wondering if they would be included in some future release. There's some fantastic animation in the OP for study or for AMVs. I suppose saving it for the fandisc provides an extra incentive to buy it.

Is this the final season? Because spoiler[there are only two big arcs left at this point, right? The middle-school arc and the final game? I know there are a few games before then but they are like the length of two episodes each.]
