The Seven Deadly Sins Announces New Sequel Movie

The Seven Deadly Sins has announced a new sequel movie is on the way! The fourth and final season of the anime series, The Seven Deadly Sins: Dragon's Judgment, is currently premiering new episodes in Japan (but fans in other territories will have to wait until later in 2021 to check out the new season on Netflix) and it seems the anime franchise is gearing up to continue further. Although the anime has set Dragon's Judgment as the final season of the series overall, it's not going to be end of the anime in general as a new film will continue beyond the events of the final season.

Kodansha has announced The Seven Deadly Sins will be releasing a brand new anime feature film set after the events of Dragon's Judgment. Aiming for a release in Japan later this Summer, The Seven Deadly Sins: Cursed by Light, will feature a completely original story from original series creator Nakaba Suzuki.

With The Seven Deadly Sins: Dragon's Judgment currently making its way through Japan, there's no telling what this new story will entail or whether or not the final events of the manga will be reflected in the anime's currently scheduled 24 episode run. The original manga release of the series will also be getting an official sequel some time this year as well, so maybe the film could even be tied into that. But it's far too early to tell, of course.

Shonen Jump Teases One Piece Manga is Headed Toward 'Upcoming Final Arc'

In an advertisement for the upcoming One Piece Magazine volume 10 on September 4, this year's 35th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine teased on Monday that Eiichiro Oda's One Piece manga is "headed toward the upcoming final arc." The advertisement did not give any more specifics.

The advertisement made the reference as the 10th volume of the One Piece Magazine will focus on a theme of rereading the manga to "prepare for the climax."

The 10th volume of the magazine will also start Boichi's adaptation of the One Piece: Ace's Story novels.

Oda reported in a YouTube video posted in September 2019 that he "wants to end [the One Piece story] in five years."

While he was still in high school, Oda was a runner-up for the Tezuka Award for new creators from Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in 1992. He began serializing the One Piece manga in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump manga on July 19, 1997.

Haikyu!! Author Haruichi Furudate Teases Haikyuu Sequel Manga

The sports genre of manga has always been popular among fans. This genre focuses on stories involving various sports and the competitive pursuits of their athletes. But whenever we talk about this genre, the one manga that always pops into our minds – “Haikyu!!”

Haikyu!! has been a fan favorite ever since it started publishing back in February 2012. The story of Shōyō Hinata, who aims to be a great volleyball player, has been engrossing readers for almost eight years now.

The manga will conclude on July 20, 2020, after its eight-year-long run with its 401st chapter featuring a time skip to the Olympics.

Haikyu!! is the weekly Shonen Jump 33.34 merger issue, which will be released on July 20th next week, and will mark the final round with a period of eight and a half years.

Until the end, face forward and run as hard as you can. I hope you all can run together.

Haikyu’s author Haruichi Furudate had commented about a sequel manga revolving around the Olympics seven years ago. It is uncanny that the 401st chapter teasing the Olympics time skip has been published seven years after the comment was made.

The 401st chapter along with the previous comment has teased fans with a sequel Manga for Haikyu!! revolving around the same.

It isn’t uncommon for sports genre mangas to receive sequels focusing on significant sports events after their long runs.

• Kengan Ashura received a sequel titled Kengan Omega that followed the series two years after the end of the Kengan Annihilation Tournament on Ganryu Island.
• Baki The Grappler had also received two sequels titled New Grappler Baki in 1995 and Baki: Son of Ogre in 2005.
• A sequel was also seen for Diamond no Ace when it received a sequel Diamond no Ace Act II in 2015 after its nine-year-long run from 2006.

Fans can hope that this isn’t just pure coincidence but a well-thought plan by the author, which will allow its readers to keep reading more about Shōyō Hinata and his athletic pursuits.

About Haikyu!!

Hinata Shoyo is a highly passionate boy who wishes to follow the steps of his idol, ‘The Little Giant’ in the field of volleyball.

Hinata’s resolve is unbreakable as he faces gruesome defeat at the hands of the ‘King of the Court,’ a genius prodigy setter Kageyama Tobio in middle school. Hinata’s dreams take fruit as he enters high school.

Hinata joins the declining volleyball team of Karasuno High and is appalled to find the very same Kageyama as his teammate.

As Kageyama and Hinata realize the potential of their abilities as a duo, Karasuno High starts taking flight with the opportunities at hand.

The story follows the revival of Karasuno High and the unity they maintain to pave their way for nationals.

New One Piece Chapter 955 Makes Unexpected Alliance

When something serious is about to go down in the popular franchise One Piece chapter 955, creator Eiichiro Oda lets you know in the most dramatic way possible: by Beast Pirates And Bigmom Pirates Alliance. Seven days before the raid of Onigashima, Kawamatsu succeeded in obtaining a large number of swords their forces can use for the battle. Along with this, Zoro finally agrees to return the Shusui to the people of Wano in exchange of Enma. Princess Hiyori insisted on the return of the sword as they considered it a relic to the country. She expressed that the country of Wano has been in much tribulation ever since the sword was taken from them, and hopes that the return of Shusui will bring good fortune once again to the country.

Zoro probably agrees because of Hiyori’s tale that the Enma – her own father’s sword – was the only blade to ever injure Kaido in battle. And knowing Zoro’s interest in legendary swords, he would probably want to test if the tales were true. The last time we saw Law and Hawkins’ confrontation, Law was at a great disadvantage as Hawkins took upon himself the lives of Law’s crewmen using the Stra-straw fruit. This means that Law would have to kill three of his subordinates first before he can get through Hawkins.



After revealing Hawkins’ real purpose of joining Kaido, Law decided to help him as he must have felt that Hawkins also holds grudge against the Emperor. After suffering an almost immediate defeat against a battle with Kaido, Luffy determined to make himself stronger with whatever little time he has left before the raid. While a prisoner in Udon, he learned how to use Ryuo, an advanced form of armament haki he once saw Rayleigh use during their training in Rusukaina. He then learned the principle of Ryuo from yakuza boss Hyogoro, under whose supervision he trains. His training includes punching a huge, thick slab of metal using Ryuo. Being almost helpless against Big Mom and Kaido, he must have realized by now that he has to be much stronger if he wants to win the battle against the Emperors. On the other side of the Island, Kinemon gives instructions to make certain changes in the picture puzzle they distributed to their allies, signifying a change in their meeting place. Kinemon assures that changing their meeting place will nearly guarantee that their raid won’t be stopped by their enemies. Near the end of the chapter, we saw Apoo arriving at Wano with a band of curious creatures called ‘numbers’. Kaido seems to be in shock hearing about this as he was not expecting them at all. This gives us an idea that Apoo might have some other plans in play that might give another twist in the plot. Probably the highlight of chapter 954, Big Mom and Kaido’s unforeseen alliance shook the whole One Piece fandom. Their alliance is based on their common goal to take over the world and a common hatred towards Strawhat. With this, we might see the appearance of the rest of the Big Mom pirates already in Wano on the next chapter. More epic events and revelations are highly anticipated in the next chapter of One Piece. Chapter 955 of One piece will officially return after a week and is expected to be released of September 16th in the weekly Shonen Jump issue.

One Piece 954 Revealed The Legendary Sword That Gave Kaido's Scars

Now that One Piece 954 Wano Arc final war is near, more and more unexpected revelations are coming out and it is getting more intense. Recently, it has been revealed that Big Mom and Kaido are on the same ship and many are thinking that the scar on Kaido happened during that time. Unfortunately, it’s not as the latest One Piece manga chapter just revealed where did Kaido actually get the scar.

Last Chapter just went live and it covers the background story of Kawamatsu. There are no actual fighting scenes but it revealed an interesting fact about Kaido’s scar. But before you continue reading, please take note that this post contains spoilers. If spoilers don’t bother you, continue reading below. In this chapter, Kawamatsu remembered how he met Lord Shimotsuki Ushimaru who is the ruler of the Northern Ringo. According to him, Lord Shimotsuki is a powerful swordsman who had a fox at his side. That fox is Onimaru who is still guarding the graveyard against the thieves.

The fox still remembers Kawamatsu but immediately attacked Kawamatsu when he started collecting the swords from the graves. Kawamatsu explained everything and the fox eventually calm down. Zoro, Kawamatsu, and Hiyori are looking for the hidden armory and they have successfully found it. They found a huge number of weapons that will be used for their attack in Onigashima. Gyukimaru, on the other hand, is still watching and hiding in the shadow.

Meanwhile, Hiyori speaks to Zoro about his sword, Shusui. Hiyori asked him that if it was the real Shusui, Zoro should give it back to the Wano Country. In return, Hiyori offers another legendary sword named Enma. Enma was once used by Lord Oden and it was the sword that managed to left a scar on Kaido.

Zoro got Shusui from Ryuma, the Legendary Samurai from Wano Country, after he defeated him in battle during the Thriller Bark Arc. Ryuma is the owner of Shusui and entrusted the sword to Zoro after seeing his abilities. Knowing that Shusui is considered as a national treasure of the Wano Country and Hiyori is asking to return it, will Zoro give it back and accept the Legendary Blade Enma? Let’s see how things unfold when One Piece Chapter 954 releases today.
