A couple days ago ANN confirmed that the second season of Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi has been green lit and now the Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi LiveJournal Community has posted an image of the below ad confirming season two is to start airing this October. However, at the time of this post the website for the series had not been updated to confirm this information.

It appears Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi is following in the same footsteps as Junjo Romantica, which had a very similar airing schedule and time between seasons. If you are unfamiliar with Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi, season one aired in Japan in April of this year and was simulcast by Crunchyroll. You can catch the entire season one on Crunchyroll here. 

If anyone wants to provide a complete English translation, feel free to post it below in comments and I will add it to this post with proper credit.

Thanks to @thisfangirlsays for pointing out the Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi LiveJournal Community where this was posted, and to @MagicalEmi for confirming the translation!

ANN reported today that the manga/anime Ouran High School Host Club is going to get its own live action television show this coming July. Ouran has been popular with yaoi fans due to its six male host club members and ample fanservice. The host club members cover a wide range of types including the twins, who play off of their 'forbidden love' for each other, and Honey, who is the loli-shota type even though he is actually the oldest of the group. Wiki describes the series as "a parody of otaku culture, especially cross-dressing, yaoi and yuri cultures within otaku culture." Those interested in checking out the anime can see it here on Hulu or watch it on Netflix via the instant queue.

 

So far of the male characters, we know Yusuke Yamamoto has been cast as Host Club president, Tamaki Suoh.  He's a cutie!———————-> Can't wait to see the trailer for this one.

You may wonder why I'm posting about an anime that has nothing to do with yaoi. Well, Supernatural the tv show is hugely popular here in the states and Japan with yaoi and m/m erotica fans due to its not so subtle bromance between brothers Dean and Sam. The two brothers have been fodder for MUCH shipping and fanfic. Now the English dub of the anime is being released and Jared Padalecki himself will reprise his role as Sam Winchester and voice all 22 episodes. Jensen Ackles will only voice Dean for the final two episodes. I'm not sure how that works but I guess we'll find out. Anyway, I must say the trailer looks absolutely AWESOME and I'm not even a watcher of Supernatural myself. I will definitely be watching this one and we can only hope they stay true to Supernatural and keep some of the bromance in! These anime characters are HOT!

Press Release: 

“Supernatural: The Anime Series revisits the Winchester brothers’ journey down the backroads of America as they search for clues to their father’s disappearance, hunt down the supernatural in all its unearthly forms, and enter into the unexpected mystery of their destinies. The Supernatural anime episodes mirror the story arc of the series’ first two seasons, providing supplemental stories ranging from prequels and spin-offs to untold tales that fit within theSupernatural mythology.”
 
 
 
Release Date: July 26th on Bluray, DVD, Download and OnDemand
Released By: Madhouse
Language: English
Subtitles: Chinese, English, French Spanish
Region 1: U.S. and Canada Only
Length: 22 Episodes
