Man, I just finished reading the manga and almost everything I could find about this and now it's heavily implied that this entire series has been dropped.
All this was is Shaft with alot of free time and decided to make a MV for the heck of it for the Manga so you can think of these four MV more like the Op/Endings song. Basically tryna get more peopleto read the Manga? And I did :D
I was horribly sad when shina dark was canceled as a manga, now all im left are these teasers :\ So sad. If only the author could have come up with more interesting storylines after the Christina backstory. Oh wells, RIP shina dark.
@chungga94 Ah... the waiting game. I'm normally good at that.
But when it comes to manga and anime... My eyes turn bloodshot, develop bags-under-my-eyes, voice becomes hoarse, and my hands start shaking, before I realize that I'm no longer patient, and the anticipation is killing me.
Am I alone in this sense? Or are there others who understand me?
some sites say Showtime is going to air Shina Dark in the year 2017...it cold be false, but then again our world is based on possibility...no one would say this unless they heard something about it, and to top it off they even said a channel name for it
dang man i only just read the manga for this like a week ago and they dont have an ending for it it got canceled i heard i bet if they finished it they make tons of cash and then if they made the anime for it they would make way more id buy it lol wbu haha Xd
i think the production of anime would be great,seriously guys it been more than 1 year since Shina Dark manga have been stop produce (i think) and i dont think it will come out in the next year either.
i think it's good that they didn't make an anime for shina dark because they would have destroy i think generally they didn't make a good adaptation of this type of manga
yeah this anime is called Shina Dark but apparently only the OP and ED songs were leaked...maybe the anime is still in progress so they're not releasing it yet..i'm sure there's gonna be one, this video is proof enough just dunno when..
hahaha this is really cruel, making such words stealing amvs of such a great manga and leaving us without an anime, but thats ok, im sure the writter was having hard feelings about it too :) too bad tou ;
Shina Dark was at OneManga, but it's since been taken down. The reason given is that they're concerned with all the censorship hysteria that's been coming down on so many websites (whether it's anime/manga related or not). Not sure if it's coming back, check the OneManga forums if anything.
These do look like OP's and ED's. I wonder how the creater felt after finding out his "anime adaptation" got downgraded into Stand Alone Music videos. I was looking forward to Shina Dark being animated.
No. as the manga goes, it's about "satan". he fell asleep for a long time and false rumors popped up that he was a perverted killer that would kill people in villages and do it with 10 women each night. so people were went to the island Shina Dark as sacrifices. but as it turns out, satan is a nice guy and hes anything but perverted. those two are the figureheads for the government established by satan.
Man, at first, Exodas looked really retarded, but he looked better at the end of this. Everyone looks hella good so far. I hope this anime becomes successful.
Wow great upload! I recently read the manga well the ones posted on OneManga anyway. I really liked the books, and frankly did not think anyone would be posting the music vids at all so again thanks.
After reading the manga this based off of I am ever so excited to see the anime. It is quite a good read and I hope it will be just as good as a watch as well. Speaking of which Maou is ever so unlucky, I guess it comes with being a demon king and living with a large amount of women. I can feel for him. Maou is indeed the best character because he is just so darn unlucky. And the legends don't do him justice.
True, I just hope the updates are a bit quicker, like, one chapter a month, like Vampire Knight and Full Metal Alchemist. Also, I want it to focus a bit more on Maou (or Satan, I'll call him Satan from now on). At first, it seemed that the manga revolved around him but....I understand that the 2 princesses are main chars too but he is negleted too much....I would like a chap to focus on Vincent too (Satan's butler). I'm about 99% sure that he is Dracula. After all, they DID make Satan a saint.
I've updated the videos description. I'm no longer going to say this is a preview vid. As far as I can gather, these are simply some music videos that they commissioned Shaft to make just for the hell of it and to make fans happy.
They're made up to look like OPs and EDs and character songs and stuff, but aren't officially a preview vid or anything.
Or more bluntly, it's been 9 months and there hasn't been a word about when an anime will come out, so don't expect anything.
It was from animesuki forum or one similar to it... however, the rumour turned out to be a little misleading as now everybody seems to think that the source mistook the PV release date of March 20th/21st 2008 as the new one...
how can this become an anime when it only has 19 chapters(on mangafox) or is the site just unupdated??? though the story is very great it just doesn't make sense at all i thought that the manga has to have lots of chapters before becoming an anime like sekirei it has like 60+ chapters before it became an anime.... can you shed some light on this
the releases are REALLY irregular... as far as i know the last chapter that's been released in japan is chapter 20 (february 2009), it hasn't been translated yet -___- I think is too early to make an anime... i would love it though xDU it would make a 13 episode and it would probably end with the fight with gozoroth
It's all really up to the producers and the artists - they produced an OVA of 6 episodes after only releasing 2 books of "Murder Princess" and that's one of many random productions when there are other mangas that might do great animated but it's all up to those who are willing to take the risk to attempt to animate a popular manga without being slaughtered by the fanbase... "Mahou Sensei Negima" would be a prime example for that. Hope these ramblings shed some light on what you were asking...
the manga series is called shina dark. there were basically rumors that an anime was going to come out for it but.....nothing yet and that was a couple months ago that something was supposed to happen. then these vids came out.....
this is made of so much win, i read to the current manga just a few days ago, and by chance was looking up the voice actor for nagi in Kannagi and its going to be her who voices the red haired girl i beleive this is awesome news, this anime and manga is a must watch and read for anyone, manga should be out soon hopefully ^^
Someone should make a gif of 1:50-1:52. It's somehow amusing. The scene after that also shows the most emotion from all of the vids.
The manga updates are too damn slow, so I'me eagerly anticipating this anime. How many episodes is it supposed to be, and when does in begin airing? If there are any such dates scheduled yet, that is.
This Anime looks awesome! And it looks like it has a little something for everyone (although enough fan service to make some people uncomfortable). The fight scenes look good too but I especially like the third video! ^_^ And check out the intriguing looking still at 7:21!
its not just you....though there may be something less than that there is no indication (sp?) that it is that kind of paring...at lease not in the manga yet anyway.
As far as I can tell the songs haven't been released yet. I expect they'll turn up in OP/ED singles around the time the anime starts (whenever that is).
Lantis is the company credited for music production for the preview, so you might want to watch them for new releases in the future (nothing showing at the moment).
