Very interesting news. Not a remake but a new adaptation of the novels?

I've never read the novels so I have no clue how faithful the ova series was.

Some initial comments were made in the comments thread, but I guess a new thread is important for this.

Anyway, I am suddenly reminded of this image:

interesting news, sounds both exciting and scary.

but it'll be a century before anything comes out anyway, I will have forgotten about this and rediscovered it about five times until then, at least.

I heard Dusty wasn't really in the novels so we won't get to see this famous line in this new adaptation:

It's both exciting and worrying news as I doubt Japan can put out 100+ episodes of quality OVA over the span of more than a decade again. After Tytania broke off abruptly like that, I'd rather they don't do it if this will just turn out like that. I hope at least they'll make it on the level of gaiden series.

There still hope for anime! Let's just hope it will be at the level of Yamato 2199 remake!

It might sound sick, but I want to experience
Yang Wenli's death
in 1080p remastered better version. The old version is shoddy, awkward, and does not do him justice.

...Because the anime is also getting an English release. Both the main series OVAs, and the Gaiden OVAs.

Speaking of this thread, whatever happened to this announcement? It was done 1½ years ago, and nothing's been said since.

Since when did I become the designated researcher of AniDB? T___T

Okay, I like to research, and I tend to over-research about things I like, despite how miniscule or mundane it is, but still!

Not even a month has passed since I wondered what was going on!

Some years ago, I'd be celebrating at I.G doing a LoGH show.

Now, I'm... not so sure. But hey, it's not DEEN, right?
