New Hidamari Sketch Special Reportedly Announced

Announcement said to have been made at Sunday’s “Chō Hidematsuri Z” event

The Moon Phase Comments blog reports on Sunday that production on a new Hidamari Sketch Special Edition has been green-lit. The announcement was reportedly made at Sunday’s “Chō Hidematsuri Z” event in Tokyo. There have already been two Hidamari Sketch Special Edition episodes released for the first television series, and an unaired episode was included in the seventh and final DVD of the Hidamari Sketch x 365 television sequel last month. (The announcement of Hidamari Sketch x 365’s production was first made at an earlier “Chō Hidematsuri Z” or “Super Hida Festival” in November of 2007.) The timeframe and other details of the new special edition have not been announced.

Yen Press publishes Ume Aoki’s original manga under the name Sunshine Sketch in North America.

Color me excited! More Yuno, Sae, Hiro, Miyako, and (hopefully) Yoshinaya-sensei on the way!
