A teaser preview uploaded by Pony Canyon on Sunday has revealed cast and staff members for Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru: Washio Sumi no Shou; the first half of the upcoming second season of Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru, adapting the prequel light novel Washio Sumi wa Yuusha de Aru.

So pretty much the same seiyuu and staff from the first season

Monaca/Keiichi Okabe composing the music for this again, so I'm expecting another orgasmic soundtrack.

Well it wasn't a surprise but I'm happy that its still the same staff (especially Script Writer and Director, I think he's now Chief Director? But still... Unless I missed that he's main director still for both) but I'm glad Kishi and Uezu are here again c:

Haaa~

Though, what I don't get it, is the duration of each 3 movies: well, if these 3 movies doesn't exist would, what then just a ordinary 12/13 episode anime series, then is the duration together about 4,2 hours long (without OP/ED calculated). But that this will be spliten up in two mediums, then are each movie about 40< min. long? And the other thing is, will the rest 6 eps. then regulary on TV broadcasted?

In my about 22 years otaku experience I did never so management at a sequel season seen, where then for me alian is...>_>

The movies are more of a special screening of the first 6 episodes of S2 (Containing the whole "Prequel" half of the S2). A lot of other shows got such things, and the studio that did YuYuYu has done it before, but in this case, the news of the screening became tangled with the news of S2 and so many sites have been making a deal of something that is just a special event.

Well, it's me clear that these first 6 eps the 3 movies are, and that prequel of the first season is. But what I don't get it, if they on theaters or on the TV aired will, and how long the duration will be... - Because if we speak 6 eps, then we've a duration of about 40 min. playtime each movie. This is for me a bit confusing...>_>

Pretty much that, but they will also air some shorts based on the 4koma manga along with the two episodes that will compose each "movie".
