> Ei Aoki (Aldnoah.Zero, Fate/Zero) is directing the anime at his studio TROYCA.

Not sure I feel about this yet but I do thing the visual quality production by that studio was decent for their involvement in previous works. Also, I can't wait for Black Lagoon manga to return again. Been awhile since I've read the series.

Honestly I hope he start working on ending the manga right away, it just feel like when a manga return from long hiatus it goes back on hiatus very quickly and then just bounce back and forth. I'd rather they just get a satisfying conclusion.

Awesome, hope they make more Black Lagoon OVAs. Roberta's Blood Trail was amazing.

I'm happy and all but this series will eventually go back to hiatus after a few chapters. Happened with Hunter x Hunter, Berserk, and D.Gray-Man (though Hoshino has good reason). It's only a matter of time.

Also, about time he new anime he's working on. The main character has white hair and red eyes, most likely a vampire series of some sort (just a guess). I'll wait for the PV to sorted what it looks like.

More Black Lagoon manga = more Black Lagoon anime, I hope. And then more English-dubbed Black Lagoon with the Ocean cast. That cast is fantastic.

As long as he finished this current arc before his next hiatus, I'm good. Madhouse will be on that in seconds, making another OVA for us~

The current arc looks to be a straight out mistake, as of now, and i have NO trust that Hiroe will commit long term. Especially with an exit strategy for this 2002 property. The OVA had a great (and somewhat changed) conclusion. That´s were BL "ended" in grace for me. Unless Hiroe pulls though.

but considering how dark the series is. i have a feeling it will be the X-1999 treatment where everyone dies except for rock. though i pray to god he doesnt go down the akame ga kill route.
