Bokutachi no Remake is initially a light novel series written byKionachistarted in March 2017 in Japan. I’ve been reading the manga adaptation before the anime adaptation began and it’s a good series overall. If you were already watching anime in the mid-2000s, you can relate to several moments too, including thisGod Knowsscene from the anime.
More onThe Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
The mainHaruhi Suzumiyanovel series didn’t get any new anime adaptation sinceThe Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiyamovie back in 2010. And it’s unlikely a new anime will happen anytime soon seeing the Kyoto Animation arson attack two years ago.
The studio is slowly getting back to its feet lately and keeps nurturing awesome talent. Right now,Kobayashi san’s Maid Dragonseason 2 is airing, and it’s the first TV anime Kyoto Animation did since the attack.Haruhi Suzumiyais still pretty popular in Japan and worldwide. The Idolmaster: Cinderella Girls Starlight Stage(Deresute) also madeHaruhi Suzumiyatrend on July 25. By announcing a collab event is coming soon. I wouldn’t rule out moreHaruhi Suzumiyaanime happening one day.
