Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! Season 2! Officially Confirmed!

In the latest issue of Newtype magazine there is an intriguing promotional image, one that mentions about the second season of your favourite Kyoto Animation anime Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!
This announcement is rather not too surprising since Kyoto released a small teaser two months ago featuring the words “contract renewal”, which hints at more Chuunibyou. In addition, the anime’s official website was also updated with the image below, containing the same words.

Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! is an anime adaptation of the light novel series of the same name by Kyoto Animation. The novels entered the Kyoto Animation Awards in 2010 and received an honourable mention award. The light novel was eventually published by Kyoto Animation in June 2011 and the anime aired just last season. The anime received rather high sales and TV ratings prompting more demand for the anime series and light novel series. Here is a brief sypnosis of the anime from MAL:

Yuuta Togashi suffered from chuunibyou while he was in middle school. When he graduated, he put that dark history behind him and forgot about it… or he was supposed to. High school was smooth sailing and full of enjoyment—until the unavoidable, sad event occurs. The event that locks Yuuta into a contract with Rikka Takanashi and disrupts his desperately ordinary life.

There has been no set date or season window for the second season of Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! so far.

Shingeki no Kyojin! Episode 13.5 as a Recap!

News had been announced that the 13.5th episode of the Shingeki no Kyojin TV anime will be a recap of all the previous episodes, which was reported on the July issue of Animedia magazine. Now this is really a good and bad news, good because I don't need to be hyped up for nothing once the 14th episode is release, at the same time, bad because I won't be able to enjoy a week of Shingeki no Kyojin but overall hopefully they will cover this episode with another good episode after this recap ヾ(*д*)ﾉ゛
