What?! Where?! How come no one in my boards (Japanese and English) are talking about this?! Let me search for a source… Let me just rule out that it’s the *other* Yoko Kanno…

Hmmm, there’s no source, and it’s just 2ch for now. Some people are already dismissing it as a rumor. I’ll try to poke the 2ch Kanno thread.

Will definitely email Club Japan and ask if they can help order this….
Amazon JP is just too expensive now that there’s no more regular shipping =S

The Maaya essay looks interesting. (of course I’d say that) Well, it all looks interesting actually.

@mai: about Tena on S-String, I talked about it on CyBlog a few weeks ago but since there was NO OFFICIAL INFORMATIONS about this, I didn’t thought it was worth talking about it on YKDB or here. Even japanese comments I found about this “news” were like “eh? what’s this?”
Tena on S-String is not what I call a seinen. If a seinen is something where little girls are everywhere, well… so it’s a seinen. (oh, yes, there’s a naked girl too… worth to be called a seinen! -_-).

The subject would have been great (Soul Score and all) without this ecchi/lolicon thing…
The only thing that is great about this manga is it’s all about music. I’ve read 3 chapters, and it’s… boring. Maybe they wanted to do a Card Captor Sakura-like manga but… only little maids and one boy…
… Please Yoko Kanno… don’t do that, I won’t watch this so… please… lol

@Len – I actually posted about it being just a rumor after that comment by Westlo:
http://gabrielarobin.com/2386/rumor-mill-kanno-to-work-on-tena-on-s-string-anime
And for everyone’s knowledge, there are MANY annoying rumors that this and that project will have Kanno working it, and they just keep sprouting in 2ch. Let everyone beware. No official source = rumor. I wouldn’t be surprised if the people propagating these stuff are the stakeholders of the manga themselves, and are doing it for publicity.

Oh yes, since it was “Kanno Time” because of the concert, I think some people used this opportunity to make some noise around new anime…
And I agree : no official source = rumor. And this one is a BAD rumor lol
