| From a promotional poster distributed to bookstores, it was revealed that the anime "Nisekoi", adapted from the manga of the same name, will start airing in January 2014. The manga is currently serialized in Weekly Shounen Jump and the anime is made by studio Shaft starring Uchiyama Kouki, Hanazawa Kana, and Touyama Nao in the main cast. The poster also showed that volume 8 of the manga will be released on September 4th, while volume 9 will be released on November 1st and will have a special edition that will include a bundled drama CD.

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Nice,looking forward to it. |
| imo, cast should be the Tomatsu and Matsuoka (SAO duo). Not Nao and Kouki :( |

"Your taste is shit cause you like what I hate. Believe me I have 1000 cartoons that I rated with less than 5."  |
| The cast doesn't thrill me (Drama CD cast is still much better), the shaft studio handling it make me less excited due to their weird animation styles, and the premise sounds too cookie-cutter romcom hijinks. And despite being serialized on Jump, i don't see it being adapted past 1-cour. Not going to put my hope in it, and will only watch it if general consensus on MAL consider it compelling and engaging, thats all |
| I still find it weird to see Shaft working on a normal story like this. Regardless of discussing the actual quality of the manga it's a pretty standard shounen romcom. It may not seem like it due to the mafia/gang premise, but that really only gets into play to introduce characters, other than that the situations are pretty standard. Anyway, I'm not a big fan of Shaft and I don't love the manga (even though I like it) but I'll watch this to see the final product. Kinda curious about it to be honest. |
| I'll completely disregard the stupid plot and stupid characters with a short memory who can't remember their childhood crush, and I'll watch it only because it's Shaft. <3 <3 <3 |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| Based Shaft. |
 |
| I completely missed that Shaft is doing it. Maybe it won't suck. |

It's a shame Double Arts got axed and Niskoi gets popular enough to get an anime. But still, I am interested in how Shaft will adapt this. I don't expect this to be good, though. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Good news, Shaft won't screw it up. |
 |
| I can't wait till January!! |

| Sounds good, I remember reading some of the Manga and it wasn't bad. I'm also curious in how Shaft will work with it. |
| I'm going to give it a shot but I believe Nisekoi works better as a manga. GuiltyKing said: I've heard a lot of good things about this manga, thus I'll make sure to give it a shot. Really? I thought you were already reading it. |

Double Arts was much better than Nisekoi and it is a shame indeed :( though that's probably because I prefer that genre more. But I'm still looking forward to the adaptation since Uchiyama is Raku. I kind of wish someone else is voicing Chitoge though, I don't particularly like Touyama's voice. And I've only watched one anime by Shaft I think so I'm not sure what to expect. I'm just glad it's airing in the winter since there's so much I want to watch in the fall already. |
| SHAFT = must watch. This should be good. And it seems like Kana Hanazawa is more and more becoming a SHAFT veteran. Not that I'm complaining. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Hope this is good. Cmon shaft! |
| Might be one of, if not the only, Shounen Jump thing I can really get into. I only managed to read the one-shot so far, but it still makes me excited for the anime. |
| Yay, a release date! Winter! :D |
| 💕 |
| I will watch, not because of Shaft or HanaKana, but because the synopsis involving love between rival Yakuza gangs is interesting enough! |
 |
| F*ck yeah... Shaft do this? cant wait! |
 |
| I knew this was gonna happen a few months ago, so i stopped reading the manga. And i'm very happy that I did, seeing as how Shaft will be adapting it, it's bound to be good \(>o<)/! |
| CAN'T WAIT >_< |
| By SHAFT... no thanks. They made couple of Anime lately I just can't enjoy. Guess I stick with the Manga. |
| Not a big fan of the manga but I'll watch to see what Shaft do with it. |
| Cool but i hoped that it would start in the fall season -_- still looking forward to it a lot. |
 |
| Shaft doing a series like this? Could be interesting. |

ThangLong said: I will watch, not because of Shaft or HanaKana, but because the synopsis involving love between rival Yakuza gangs is interesting enough! Wow a reaction based on actual interest in the source being adapted and nothing more. That's so 90's. Reading this thread has been kind of hilarious though. ZOMG SHAFT COUNT ME IN THAT MEANS IT MUST BE GOOD! OH NOES SHAFT IS DOING THIS WILL NOT WATCH! I kind of miss the days where people took interest or declined to based on the type of work and synopsis itself and not just blind studio fanboyism. I mean personally I'm not a huge fan of Romantic Comedy and the premise doesn't sound particularly interesting (I wasn't a fan of the likes of Seto No Hanayome which this kind of sounds like) so I'm pretty sure I won't be following this. |

| looks good. but I must start reading the manga first. |
risefire said: looks good. but I must start reading the manga first. Can't you just wait for the anime though? It's SHAFT, chances are the anime will blow it's manga counterpart out of the water. |

| SHAFT + Kana Hanazawa + Nao Touyama + already interested = TOTALLY gonna watch it. |

Just pointing out peoples consistently nonsensical logic and reasoning throughout this thread and using personal experience and example to justify my own level of interest in this news. I'm actually plenty settled. |
| it will be animated by shaft? I didn't expect this for this manga, honestly, lol great another reason to watch it and the manga is good. |
   |
| Seems promising. I will watch it. |
| I like anime. |
