| Legend of the Galactic Heroes, The Heroic Legend of Arslan, this guy sure has a taste for Legends, doesn't he? |
 |
| Geh, I wish that one studio would take care of the stalled animated project instead. Who needs another manga from this light novel ? There's already a good one available right now, even if it's quite old ~~ |
 |
| Isn't this old news? 1-2 weeks old? MAL is slow. |

I've seen the news and pic around for a while and it doesn't look great. But then again that's what I thought about Fullmetal Alchemist. |

| As much as I love Arslan and Arakawa. I don't think this a great combination, Arakawa's art isn't particularly good for an adaptation work, specially this one, I prefer when she does her own original works. |
 |
| I'll give it a try, really hoping for it to be good. Since Arakawa's drawing it she must think the story is good and that she can use her art to strengthen it. |
| Interesting, kinda looking forward to it if the first chapter is suitable enough. |
 |
| Wow, it might be epic, I trust Arakawa-sensei. Actually I'm looking more forward to this, than to the Silver Spoon, her last manga. Who knows, it might be FMA level, would be awesome :D Definitely will read first chapter, when it comes out. |

Well, yeah, but since I don't know that story I hope to enjoy it, once I read it :P Probably I wouldn't even know about it, if Arakawa wouldn't be part of that manga. |
| |
| Looking forward to this. |
| While I like Arakawa's artwork, I'm infinitely more excited at the prospect of experiencing something else from Tanaka. In fact, I wonder if the first manga was ever translated.... |

| Probably the best news I've heard in a while. I was just thinking I'd like to read the novelized 'Heroic Legend of Arslan'. And in 2013 as well. This HAS to be good. |
 |
| I think Arakawa will do a good job. I am a big fan of her work so I am looking forward to this. |

I notice a lot of OVA series in the 90s got fucking cancelled. Especially when the story and world is so good. |
| Anybody know if this is coming out any time soon? I'm looking forward to reading it |
| Just read it was very solid |
