Naruto Shippuden May schedule!

The fight between Danzo and Sasuke, one of the best depicted in the anime in my opinion, continues and it makes you wonder if this is all a setup by Madara? Naruto needs to settle his mind and Sakura wants to kill Sasuke herself before he goes deeper and deeper in his path of darkness.

Mobile Suit Z Gundam manga announced!

There's quite some interesting developments in Kadokawa Shoten as of lately, as Gundam Ace magazine and another Kadokawa magazine, Monthly Newtype, are collaborating this summer on a new manga magazine.

The magazine will feature tie-in manga for franchises in other media, and the announcement features images from Sunrise's upcoming Sacred Seven television anime series and BONES' upcoming Towa no Quon anime film series. More details will be provided in the next issue of Monthly Gundam Ace.

Also, more great news for mecha fans!

The June issue of Monthly Gundam Ace is also announcing that creator Hiroyuki Kitazume is drawing a new manga adaptation of Yoshiyuki Tomino and Sunrise's Mobile Suit Z Gundam robot anime series in the next issue in May. Kitazume had worked as an animation designer on the Z Gundam television series, and then he designed the characters in the Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ and Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack sequels. Kenichi Matsuzaki, the scriptwriter who was responsible for the first Gundam series' scripts, setting, and science-fiction research, is acting as the supervisor of the new manga.

Matsuzaki is credited with Gundam's version of space colonies (based on physicist Gerard K. O'Neill's original concepts), Minovsky particle, and Solar System weapon. Kitazume had previously drawn the Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Deleted Affair ~ Portrait of Young Comet manga in Gundam Ace from the magazine's inaugural issue in 2001 to 2009. The character designer of the first Gundam series, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, has also been drawing his Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin re-imagining of the first Gundam story since Gundam Ace's inaugural issue. The magazine happens to be celebrating its 10th anniversary in June.

YenPlus magazine adds Avi Arad's and Jun'ichi Fujisaku's 'The Innocent' series

So, aside from Stan Lee, this improves the list of foreign authors having success with manga not only in Japan, but around the world too!

The American publisher Yen Press announced on Monday that it would add The Innocent manga series to its Yen Plus digital anthology. The series was created by Avi Arad, former Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer (CCO)/Marvel Studios CEO and current chair of Production I.G. USA, along with Blood+ television anime director Jun'ichi Fujisaku and Korean manhwa/manga artist YaSung Ko (Stigmata). The first chapter of The Innocent runs in the April issue of Yen Plus, which also launched on Monday.

The series revolves around a detective who, after being executed for a crime he did not commit, is sent back to earth with special powers to prevent similar executions of the innocent.

Yenpress also had this this to say on their homepage:

Springtime is here! Trees are budding, flowers are blooming, and new series are popping up in the pages of YEN PLUS! Please join us in welcoming The Innocent to Side B of this month’s mag, with story by entertainment giant Avi Arad and Junichi Fujisaku and art by YaSung Ko!

After he is wrongly executed for crimes he did not commit, a former detective is given a second chance at life by the Committee. Infused with the power to manipulate the ashes which are all that remain of his mortal form, Johnny (now Ash) is sent to prevent the wrongful deaths of others unjustly accused in life. His “mentor” in this venture, Angel, is less than thrilled to be working with a human, especially one as impure as Ash…and Ash doesn’t seem too keen on following the Committee’s directives either… If you like action and mystery, be sure to check out The Innocent this month in YEN PLUS!

So much new stuff going on here at Yen Press! But don’t worry, there are still great new chapters of all your old favorites in this month’s issue! Witch & Wizard, Yotsuba&!, K-ON!, and let’s not forget those colorful zombies in Highschool of the Dead!

For those of you who entered the New Talent Search, please check out editor JuYoun’s letter for her comments about the Search!

As always, please leave your feedback here! Let us know what you think of the new additions to YEN PLUS!

ANN interviews Blue Exorcist author Kazue Kato!!!

ANN interviewed Blue Exorcist author Kazue Kato on her series becoming an anime, the use of biblical references and more!


Interview: Blue Exorcist mangaka Kazue Kato
by Zac Bertschy, Apr 8th 2011

We had a chance to talk for a few moments with Kazue Katō, the creator of Blue Exorcist; the manga premiered in the US on April 5th from Viz Media, with an iPad version available on April 11th. The anime series will be simulcast across multiple streaming sites later this month.

ANN: Please give us your personal overview as to what Blue Exorcist is about.

Kato: It is the story of the growth of a boy who was born between Satan and a human.

What themes were most important to you personally as you were creating this series? What themes and messages are you hoping to get across?

Kato: There isn't a “high” message in it, but I tried to create a manga that would intrigue teenagers and people in their early twenties . They are target of the magazine which carries this manga.

What were your chief inspirations when creating Blue Exorcist?

Kato: It originally was inspired by a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, where brothers combat monsters. Then, I tried to make the story flip several times, and settled down into a simple structure of demons versus an exorcist.

Was it always your goal for the manga to become an anime series?

Kato: No, it wasn't. I was frantically trying to not miss my deadlines. But, looking back, I should have thought about the possibility of it becoming an animated series.

Did the possibility of the series becoming an anime influence your writing process?

Kato: I did attend the meetings where the script for the animated series was being discussed. I felt overwhelmed by the dynamics of many people teaming up and creating something. Personally, my manga creation process is a lonely one, especially when it comes to script writing. I felt that I also wanted to get some input for the writing of the script for manga, although the constraints of the production process doesn't really permit that sort of thing.

There are a lot of biblical references in Blue Exorcist; after the controversy surrounding Neon Genesis Evangelion, were you at all hesitant to include these references?

Kato: As I commented as above, I did not expect that I would be so consistent in keeping my deadlines for the series so far... I made biblical references with the thinking that “I should not run away from these references if I'm working in the Exorcist genre.” But, I understand that Western countries are more sensitive to stories with biblical references than Japan is. Right now, the “Blue Exorcist” manga is currently being translated in France, UK, and the U.S. I was surprised to see some of translations, and thought, “Is it okay to translate that part?” or “Could the fans in Christian countries enjoy reading this?” I got those feelings. I still get those feelings.

Now that your manga is an anime series, how much has your involvement in the production of the anime series interrupted your work on the manga?

Kato: I could get involved with checking on the whole series structure, and on the script for the earlier part of the show, and with the character designs of original characters for the anime series. The challenging part in being involved with an anime was simply the increased workload. But, of course, it was a happy thing.

If you loved Prison Break and miss that series to death, don't worry!

Igarashi is sentenced to Deadman Wonderland, a bizarre privatized prison that is one part incarceration and one part public spectacle for tourists. The television anime will premiere on April 16.
