Probably the most expected (by number of haters and lovers) anime sequel this season is Fairy Tail. The second series will continue the story where the first one broke-off, but with a different character designer. Yes, as the story needs no introduction (it is just the old one’s continuation), I must point out the change in the staff member where Shinji Takeuchi replaced the previous designer Aoi Yamamoto. Takeuchi is Gintama’s character designer.
The show is starting on 5ht April and its OP song Masayume Chasing is by BoA
