Nozomu Tamaki, the creator of the Dance in the Vampire Bund manga, revealed on his Twitter account on Friday that the franchise will receive a new series. Tentatively titled Dance in the Vampire Bund A.S.O., it will be a sequel to Scarlet Order: Dance in the Vampire Bund 2 (pictured), the most recent installment in the series.

Commemorating the series' continuation, TO Books will reprint all 23 volumes of Dance in the Vampire Bund into two-in-one omnibus volumes, which will contain color pages and new short stories about Mina.

The vampire supernatural manga began serialization in Comic Flapper in 2005 and ended in 2012; compiling into a total of 14 volumes. A two-volume side-story was published on Media Factory's official mobile site Mediafac☆Mobile and later on pixiv comics from 2009 to 2013. A three-volume sequel, taking place three months after the events of the first manga, was published for almost one year from November 2012. The events of Scarlet Order: Dance in the Vampire Bund 2 take place in 2020, and was compiled into four volumes between 2013 and 2015. Seven Seas Entertainment has licensed the entire manga series in English in omnibus format, recently shipping Scarlet Order: Dance in the Vampire Bund 2 in December last year.

The series received a 12-episode TV anime adaptation by Shaft in 2010. Funimation licensed the series for North American distribution and released the series in a single Blu-ray and DVD volume in June 2011.

i think that any true fan of the series knows that it needs a real ending than the one that was given a few years ago

Eh... Looking at the cover I'm not fully convinced that i should watch this. I'll give a shot for the manga.

I've seen the anime and I can tell you its not for everybody. I say give it 3 episodes at least before you decide.

I watched the anime only and it was aight I guess. Never bothered going on the manga cause it didn't interest me all that much.

Happy for the real fans of this that its getting a sequel, if there are any tho.

Interesting, it must mean that it has been doing well. After watching the anime years ago I didn't bother to read the manga since it ended nicely. Lets see if this manga sequel will get an anime sequel sometime in the future.

...Wait, TO Books? Dance in the vampire bund has always been published by Media Factory until now, and I've never heard of those two working together. On top of this, I've never heard of them publishing manga except for manga adaptation of novels they're publishing themselves (like the excellent honzuki no gekokujou) Is that something new or I just missed them doing that before?
