Yo All,

We have a new series of FMA, A new season of Haruhi (complete with episodes spliced into last season) has just started airing. So now I'm curious, what series would people like to see another season of, be it prequel, sequel or retelling and why?

Me personally? S4 of Transformers Animated or a new season of the older zoids series. Basically cause they were so freaking good Smile

It's kind of weird to see a senior staff asking a newbie-like question. Razz

I'd like to see the end of Ai Yori Aoshi manga to be animated, not the inconclusive finale of Enishi. It doesn't have to be a complete 13-episodes TV series; 3-5 episodes of OVA would be enough, as the manga has ended quite some time ago and many newer, younger fans would not be familiar with the story, despite of its popularity five years ago.

Or many I just want to hear spoiler[Ayako Kawasumi moans (spoiler[Aoi and Kaoru finally have sex at the very end of the manga]) besides as Kanako Ohno in Genshiken 2.] Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

Assuming this is indeed permitted, I'd like to see more of Armitage.
A quintessential cyberpunk series with notable romantic themes, but one with room to improve in the script. Though the end of Dual Matrix sums things up, more of her antics and dilemmas wouldn't go amiss.

Hmmm... Well, Personally I think that one of the good things about most animes is that they only last for a season or two and then finish. Seeing as this prevents the story for going on too long and gives the anime less chance to jump the shark as they say. Also this means a larger variety of anime out there than we might otherwise have and I don't have to devote large amounts of money to collecting each series.

Of course they make up for this by having anime series being twice as expensive as their LA cousins.

That said I am looking forward to seeing the latest season of Maria-sama and seeing how they further explore the character relationships, and it'll be nice to see the second season of Spice and Wolf as it felt that Horo and Lawrence's journey had just begun in the first season.

A second season of Sketchbook full colorS would also be nice... I find it to be quite relaxing and think that its quite admirable that they managed to turn a whole mixed bag manga of four-panel strips into a fairly well flowing television series.

Beyond that I do think that there are probably a number of animes out there that could get away with a second series and which I would probably enjoy if they did have them... but then again wouldn't terribly miss them if they didn't.

Well I haven't watched a lot of series, but the ones I have seen, I would want more Elfen Lied (adapt the rest of the manga that wasn't adapted), and maybe someday, have all the Haruhi light novels adapted to anime (yes I want S3, S4, enough to cover all the novels).

Elfen Lied isn't in need of continuation. Whilst the closure provided in the anime is subjective, to further the story would rob the current ending of much of its melancholy.
As I have been told, the manga portrays Kouta's reaction to spoiler[Lucy's confession] in quite a different light to the anime. As such, it'd be difficult to use the manga's material to further the anime canon.

I'm either going to be destroyed or accepted with this first post.

But I'd like to see another series of Dragonball.
As much as that was expected to be said by someone..
I've got certain attachments to characters.

More Tower Of Druaga too?
