According to Moonphase Diary, plans for a TV anime adaptation of “Strike Witches” is underway…
This is great news for those who wanted more from the series after having seen the OVA released in January earlier this year — which was directed by Kunihisa Sugishima and produced by Gonzo.
The story mainly revolves around young girls who, after their world is attacked by mysterious entities, install weaponry on their own bodies and engage in battles over land, sea, and air.
In addition, a manga adaptation from Tanaka Yuuki will begin serialization in the March 2008 issue of Comp Ace.
A third series of the Hell Girl supernatural horror anime has been greenlit for production in Japan. The anime's main story revolves around a "Hell Girl" that a person can summon, via a website, to condemn another human to Hell. However the price for the service is the summoner's own soul — condemned to Hell as well.
Appropriately enough, the new anime announcement has been made on the Japanese mobile version of the "real" Hell Correspondence website. (The mobile site is only accessible from a web-enabled Japanese mobile phone, and not from personal computers.) The announcement promises the return of the Hell Girl Ai Enma with new powers, and says more details will be provided at the appropriate time on the official website.
The first anime series aired in Japan from 2005 to 2006, and the second series followed from 2006 to 2007. Funimation licensed the first 26-episode series for North America and has released two of the six planned DVD volumes so far, but has not announced any plans beyond the first series. The IFC television channel in North America is planning to show Funimation's release. Del Rey Manga licensed the manga that was adapted from the anime. The anime has also been adapted into a live-action television drama series in Japan.

Update: The announcement has now been made on the Japanese personal-computer version of the Hell Correspondence website as well. More information about the various adaptations have been added.
Jigoku Shoujo 3ird Season Announced. Irgendwie habe ich die Serie schon lange vermisst, gerade jetzt wo Higurashi zu einem Moe nonsense umgestiegen ist.

Du hast definitiv zu viel Dorama geraucht.
