Interesting, I didn't know Kuroshitsuji had set that kind of precedent. I guess there's no need to begin the new season with Rin waking up and saying "man, I had the craziest dream where my grampa was an evil pope" then.

Is it 100% confirmed that it's going to go with the manga? I don't trust anything after Tokyo Ghoul.

The Key Visual shows without semblance of doubt that they're doing the Impure King arc, I'm not sure why ANN didn't add it to the article. So yeah, they're going back to the manga

So it's not a reboot? How does one retcon that entire last arc from the original anime though? I prefer reboot because that ending with all of the nonsense about the parents etc., was bullcrap. Unimaginative, un-developed, and completely unsatisfying bullcrap. I really like the manga, but if the anime was accurate, they spoiled a lot of the mystery behind Ren. It wasn't as inconsequential as something like Noragami's 1st season ending. Hard to just cut that out.

Kuroshitsuji pretended that the end of Season 1 and all of Season 2 never happened. I imagine Blue Exorcist will do the same thing. It's cheaper than the Brotherhood treatment, and it doesn't invalidate the old anime (which has its merits).

Sweet I was hoping that the teaser from a few weeks ago would be an Anime announcement and thankfully I was right.

You are right. Really my only complaint about the old anime was the final arc deviation. I had not read the manga yet but I couldn't understand why the story wentry south so quickly. Picked up the manga and realized that part was made up. The anime as a whole was very well animated, and otherwise aenjoyable.

They must under no circumstances replace Kamiya Hiroshi as Mephisto.

Likewise, they must under no circumstances replace Sam Riegel as Mephisto when it inevitably gets an English dub.

Good to hear, I enjoyed the anime, but never got around to picking up the manga (which I should still do).
