The title of the manga has my attention already:
> We're In the Mood for Murder
And by Sankarea's author. Hmm...

Yep, that title is ... well ... a killer, is it not? It should be interesting that's for certain.
On a side note the Ninja title character illustration has a swastika as part of the costume. I foresee issues with that in various parts of the world.

Eh, the rest of the world should get over it rather than let the Nazi's appropriation of the symbol taint it forever. Besides, it's most likely to cause issues with those who don't know that the symbol existed for a long time before the Nazi's or that it has different meanings in different cultures.
And you can't do anything about ignorant people.
On topic the new series looks interesting! I actually love romances with killer girls....so I hope that's what it'll end up being.

First learned about the swastika issue during a TV episode of Kolchak the Night Stalker. The one about the Rakshasa.
I love Hattori's work. Still hoping that someone picks up "Otogi no Machi no Rena". Still nice that Hattori has had two anime series to his name, the first one "Kenkō Zenrakei Suieibu Umishō" and the second "Sankarea".

Congrats. Umisho is so far Hattori's longest work by chapter length at 130.

Sayaka-chan from "Aho Girl" got my attention here.

Hmm, new series seem vague. Wonder what it'll be like.
After being recommended Aho Girl, took a look, and actually really enjoyed the little I read. May, one day, get around to reading more of it.
Currently, I'm staying and Sankrea volume 11 on my shelf. Sadly, won't be reading it just yet, have a backlog to get through before I touch that. And, I've managed to stay spoiler free on this one!
