Ryou Akizuki's Kill la Kill Manga to End in February

Udon Entertainment plans to release series in 2015 ― 2015's February issue of Kadokawa's Young Ace Magazine announced on Monday that the next issue will publish the 17th and final chapter of Ryou Akizuki's Kill la Kill manga on February 4.

------------------

So, Crunchyrolls advertising is pretty wide of the mark. And quite random as to what they show you. You end up seeing the same advert 4 times in a row in one break. So far there has been an ad for a German bidet with a woman running through a waterfall to represent how clean your butt feels after its washed. Then ads for under the road piping services.... wtf?

Then a snake oil salesman asking me repeatedly DO YOU OWN A UK BUSINESS a million times. indecision

Part 1 sucks, but stick with it.

You've actually picked a great time to watch it, the final two parts weren't localised for the west for ageeeeeeeeeeees and still aren't released in the UK. They will be in spring. If you want the whole thing is on youtube in HD and subtitled search for "Hellsing OVA" but I love the English dub.

Are you sure you are watching Hellsing "Ultimate" and not just Hellsing? Ultimate was made after and is true to the manga, the original Hellsing series started faithful then went off on a tangent and was fairly awful but I didn't make it past 4 episodes.

Ultimates episodes are between 40 mins to over an hour long. Vanilla Hellsing is the standard 20 mins sans intro/credits.

Why the fuck would anyone attack an anime site? Makes no sense whatsoever.

I watched the first episode in English, so I'll re-watch it in Japanese and see which I prefer. It seemed like an exceptional dub, though. The only thing annoying about it was the police girl, but everyone else was at least entertaining. The Irish priest was hilarious.

I know right? I was wondering why it wouldn't work. This is like kicking puppies for no reason.

The girl gets better. They also tone down the tonally awkward anime/manga style comic stuff which jars a lot with the rest of it.

The Future Diary is on Funimation and Hulu, I believe. BTW, the OVA is essential to the story, as it gives the true ending. I had to watch that on Youtube, though, because Funi doesn't have it on their site or on their DVD collection.

No idea. I never heard of Psycho Pass 2 until Kotaku's list. I'll be checking it out soon.
