Angel Beats! Extras9

Hey guys, I’m shane3x and this will be my first post as an Author here at TheAkiba. Aside from trolls, I like constructive criticism so feel free to give it. Check out my Authors page to find out a little bit more about me. Now onto the article.

The recently finished Angel Beats! Has been both praised and slammed by many. If you are someone looking for more into the world of Angel Beats! There are quite a number of additional goodies for you and there should be plenty here to satisfy your appetite.

You have Track Zero which is a prequel novel, although if reading isn’t your thing a manga serialization has begun based on this novel. So far it has provided a nice insight into the Angel Beats! World, something the anime definitely didn’t go into too much detail on but I’ll come back to this point shortly.

Another manga called The 4-koma: Our War Front Song which I believe has finished now is based off the original concept of the show. I really like the artwork in this one.

 


Manga
In addition you have various singles and albums including the just released Original Sound Track available to purchase. A lot of other merchandise is also on sale, I’ve seen tumblers, tapestry, mouse pads, some sort of chibi action figures and a few others bits and pieces.

The Angel Beats! DVD/BD Vol 7 coming December 22nd will include an unaired episode dubbed episode ‘14’. As this point no-one knows when exactly in takes place within the series.

That’s all the official stuff out of the way, now on to the rumours. The following appears to be from MEGAMI magazine which mentions a ‘Angel Beats 2nd Term’.
Note
Apparently everything has been decided on already, it will air in spring 2011 and that we will get an all new cast although it will be similar to the Heaven’s Door prequel manga in the regard that no-one really knows what’s going on with the ‘world’. If this does turn out to be true I really hope they learn from the first season and expand into a 20+ episode season. I would be happy even with just a enhanced remake with more episodes which fleshes out the characters we never got to know, it did wonders for Kanon.

I want kyoani to make a remake...

Good idea. Just send them the message :)

Welcome aboard, Shane! Hope you enjoy acting as a guest author (actually the first guest blogger :)) and will continue writing post from time to time (probably another member of us?). Not really a PC gamer (I like Dota) but I did play a lot PS2 games, say, Grandia III, .hack//G.U., Final Fantasy XII, and, of course, Wining Eleven (yes, I am an addict). Hope Shane can bring more game related contents to the site in the coming days. @Snow Sorry for the delay and here you know :) Have tons of work and paper at hand. Will get to New York at the end of this month. Hopefully open up a new series named A Week in New York or alike?

It's okay, been quite a while since we spoke so I wasn't aware how much paperwork you had to do. Anyway, since Shane has a Youtube account and is actually posting gameplay footage on there, I thought it would be nice if it was possible to embed the youtube player on the blog. This would make the post more fun to read and watch, since you don't have to go to youtube and then return back to here to continue reading =p. Last time I tried, I wasn't able to, but if there is a way to do that, that'd be great.

Yeah games related posts I could easily do also. it's where my main knowledge is at so hopefully I can bring something new to the table =D I might try some games based off animes and do a post on that.

It sounds good enough. Actually you can insert video on the back by the HTML editor, but may fail if you switch back to the visual one. Will grab a better video plugin.

Fresh blood =p, do have to say it's quite sudden, haven't heard anything from YoU actually. Anyway, welcome aboard. Maybe do a post with what kind of series you like or dislike ;). Other than that, I hope to see some more posts and if possible we should have a SC2 match against each other, as far as Blizzard permits Cross-realm play ^^".

Nice to meet you too. I've got the SEA version of SC2, so if you have that one too I'd love that have a game. Hopefully it doesnt perma-crash like it has been doing in Single player. That post idea is a good one, I'll make it something I get done early on.
