Holy. Shit. Please be a finale to this amazing series. I swear no other anime did what this did with the endin.. it got so close to the final battle on both of the different sides but chose to end right before it. Literally. Right. Before. It. Please don't be another side story or alternate version, we need a damn conclusion already

After the disappointing Bleach news I'm not going to get my hopes up and this time just expect live-action version. Evil or Very Mad

Has the manga finally progressed enough to finish the Nationals arc? It was a bit disappointing (although predictable) that the Zenkoku-hen anime didn't get any further than the quarter finals. And Biyori was only a side-story. Anyway, I hope they bring back the visual fireworks (though not the fanservice) of the first season. The later seasons were toned down quite a bit in that regard.

No. They just finished up the semifinals and there's the match for fifth place before we get to the finals. I hope they won't spend as time on that as they did on the semifinals, though... (which was 46 chapters, which is almost 4 years if you consider that the manga releases one chapter every month and be blissfully ignorant of all the times the mangaka took a break, which was a lot by the way)

This announcement will be one of 4 things:

- Semifinals arc anime
- Shinohayu anime (spin-off)
- Live-action series
- Pachinko

You think they'd seriously make a whole anime season out of just four games? Shocked They wouldn't, right?
Shinohayu.. *looks it up* ..A spinoff of a spinoff? Rolling Eyes
Ah well, guess we'll just wait for the actual news.

Manga is still in the B-finals(first round), you'll probably have to wait atleast 5 years, if not more.

Just like S2 of the anime you mean? It also only covered 10 rounds.
And shinohayu is just a standard spinn-off, how is it a spin-off of a spin-off?

There's already a pachinko so I'd doubt they'd announce another one so soon.

I think they have had enough seasons. If they were to remove the yuri/GL moments, then I welcome another season.
