Shakugan no SHANA

Lucky for Mistabean because Hecate tends to moan a lot. She must really enjoy merging her mind with Yuji...

Ah, Shakugan no Shana ended happily and the series is left open for continuation. If it's popular enough in Japan (and I don't see why it wouldn't be), expect a second season! =)

I'm still on 23. I'm so sad it's ending because I've grown attached to it (like most animes). I really do hope theres a second season and not a really conclusive ending. I wish they would announce the second season ahead of time, or make it blatantly obvious, like Trinity Blood and AMG.

There isn't even a tenative date for the movie release yet. Even if there was, unless somebody CAM's this movie in Japan, we won't be seeing a Shakugan no Shana movie on western shores for at least a year. I'm quite sad now. My weekly Shana fix is now at an end. Hopefully, AMG or School Rumble will be starting next week. As of now, I have no anime to watch (I guess I'll start the second half of FMA; been putting it off for quite some time now...)

Does anyone else think Hecate gets a little over excited when she's merging with Yuji's memories? Eh, I'm sure some of you got a kick out of it. =P Also, Shana panty shots galore in the last episode. For some reason, it just sort of stuck out in my mind. For a majority of the series (we'll leave that beach episode out of it), SnS wasn't too heavy on the fanservice. I guess it was just sort of a surprised when they decided to get some panty shots in before the series ended. Okay, enough banter...

Episode 24 (Final Episode):

Not a bad way to end it, although it's kind of cheap how they just ressurect Shana without much of an explanation (Alastor says one sentence about accepting him fully or something like that). At least Shana and Yuji finally straightened out their feelings for one another, although I didn't here Yuji say, "I love you too" after Shana confessed (he sort of just smiled, stupid males and their unwillingness to express their feelings in words...).

I also forgot to mention that Hecate and friends have all escaped. I predict there will be more fun with them later on (c'mon, a second season is pretty much a no brainer here). The credit scenes pretty much scream, "SEQUEL!!!" Leave us all wanting more. Damn you JC Staff!!!

Current # of volumes of SnS novels: 12

Volume that SnS anime left off of: Volume 9

The movie will probably take up a volume or two in the novels if they follow that story. Or they can pull a Naruto (which is a big mistake in my opinion) and try making "original" stories that Yashichiro Takahashi can give his stamp of approval on. I'm hoping for the former (as should most of you since the majority of A-S seem to be manga purists).

Time to go write a review now...

Thanks for the manga info it was really helpful Very Happy

Yeah they should totally do a second season. Even a sort of side-season like Fumoffu would not be bad...and it would work to. Since it's like...school.

Here is a note for all the SHANA fans, since the show is over I will be moving this topic to the Anime Series & Movies Archive forum in 10 days.

Thanks, KATTnypp. Very Happy

THe final episode really screamed 'sequel!!!' to us, seriously. It does seem that a movie would be out soon, though...

Gosh, the first three Tomogara NOT to die after fighting with Shana and co.! That's something 'unresolved', alright. Laughing

The love triangle isn't really done with yet either, and so is the Silver Tomogara Margery was after.

One thing I was wondering about though: Where's Wilhelmina living now? In Sakai's residence, or in Yukari's? Just imagine the former... Razz

Now if only some scanlating group would do something about the novels...That would definitely make my day. Confused

Has anyone commented on how badass Alastor's true form was? I just remembered how totally awesome he looked, even if he was mostly obscured by flames and shadow.

I hope they have some cool stuff like that in the movies, too. I was getting tired of the purple bear's lasers.

alastor's true form was fire.... lots of fire. -_- i dunno about that. lol

just finished watching series, now i am a huge fan. also great OP and ED songs IMO; cant wait for the movie/sequel yadda yadda.

interesting thing... when Yuji picks up that bigass sword...., does that mean he can actually "fight" now? i mean, yuji's not like Fate/stay night's Shirou, i kinda want Yuji to fight..... i want shirou to just stfu.
