Puchimas! Manga Gets New Original Anime DVD in 2018
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The June issue of Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh magazine revealed on Thursday that a compiled book volume of Akane's Puchimas! -Petit Idolm@ster- manga will bundle a new original anime DVD in 2018. The magazine also published the manga's 100th installment on Thursday.
Akane launched the four-panel manga series in the magazine in 2008, and Kadokawa released the ninth compiled book volume on November 26. The series depicts the overly hyper daily life of The IDOLM@STER's 765Pro idols — and mysterious creatures named "Puchidoru" who somewhat resemble the idols.
The manga's fifth and sixth compiled volumes both bundled anime DVDs in 2013 and 2014, respectively. Dengeki Maoh also bundled the Puchimas! Wakku Waku—! DVD in October 2012.
The manga inspired the PUCHIM@S net anime in 2013 and a second season in 2014. Funimation streamed both seasons and released them on DVD in 2015.
