I mirrored it on tinypic, so now it works.

Can anyone translated it ? Or give us a summary about the page ?

Look one page back

Translation:
"HUNTER X HUNTER"
Poster, sales stand, shelf tookaa
* The three HxH freebies will, in accordance with the embargo on the TV anime information, be released at the same time as the 29th volume on the 4th of August.

TN: a sales stand looks like this while a shelf tookaa (no idea what the english name is) is something you can "wrap" around your volumes on your shelf. Usually for manga, the tookaa will indicate which volume to which volume an arc is, or in One Piece's case tells you which volume a particular SH joined the crew. Here's an example from Bleach.

Anyway that doesn't say much about a HxH anime but it seems there will be one with info forthcoming later?

The word they use there "解禁" means more like "lift the ban on" or "making open". Apparently there'll be an anime announcement coinciding with the release of V29 week after next. But info about it and the sales of those freebies isn't allowed until that day, August 4th.
At least, that's what it looks like. Assuming it's not fake or something.
Most likely, this means we're finally getting the looooong awaited OVA of the Chimera Ant arc. And perhaps that the Chimera Ant arc will finally end in the manga in this run. Guess we'll see.

Edit: Oh wait, it says "TV Anime" so I guess it's a TV anime, not an OVA.

 

[Rei Ayanami]

The new TV anime series for the Hunter X Hunter manga has been confirmed for this Fall.

 

[StrangerAtaru]

Okay, the more I read ST&Rs, the more I can't resist the feeling that it's basically a Jump version of Uchuu Kyoudai, just like how Dois Sol was a Jump version of Giant Killing. (the premise and all )

It's interesting though...both are popular weekly series from Morning, and they're Jump representatives both seems to have similar style of art as ES21 (I think their artists were Murata's assistants, but I wasn't quite sure)
Maybe Jump is trying to duplicate the success, but it's interesting how Shueisha is some-what shamelessly basing off stories from Kodansha... I'll laugh if Jump brings another one like this :P

Somehow with the stories I've heard of "Shingeki no Kyojin" originally being offered to them and their screw-up of turning it down, I wouldn't be surprised of Shueisha goes after that next. (or is doing all this "well let's make a Kodansha-like series" due to how Kodansha took a chance on a series like this and is reaping in every reward) Then again, Morning is the seinen mag for Kodansha...

 

[Kaiten]

Shingeki probably would not have worked in Weekly Jump. To dark, to intense, and to violent to have a really good chance of polling well. It does not help that the art has more in common with Children of the Sea and Blade of the Immortal than Dragonball or Naruto. It could have worked in Jump as a Neuro like outlier, but the odds would have been against it. Being serialized in a lower circulation magazine that specializes in action, fantasy, and super natural manga for the older end of the shounen audience helped it last long enough to build an audience through tankobon.

Weekly Morning may be as close to being a polar opposite to Jump as a mainstream magazine can get. Morning is one of the only magazines without a unified style, the only basis for adding new series is if the editors like a series or not. Postcards do not have any effect on the TOC or whether a series is canceled or not. It would be very interesting if the editors of Jump embraced the way Morning, and Morning's sister magazines, do business. I happen to prefer the more gekiga influenced Monthly Afternoon, but giving Jump's editorial department the same freedom as Mornings would be epic too.

Looks like we get only an Anime-Version of "Chimera Ant arc" and not the HD-Remake of the first series. Damit, I would prefer the HD-Remake^^

Only the Ant arc ? but that alone would be beyond awesome
Remaking what comes before the ant arc would be too much work and trouble, and honestly the old anime and the ova are more than satisfying to me.
If the Kimera Ant arc is really going to be animated, then either the end of this arc is really near or HxH won't go on hiatus (which is highly unlikely).

Scans of jump Next:

 

[Mr. Prince]

Haahaha... Horikoshi also goes to space!

His OS is called Uchū Shōnen Bulge (= Space Boy Bulge), it's about a young boy named Bulge who travels space. His goals are...!?

Matsui's sounds pretty damn awesome, too. Title is Tōkyō Depaato Sensō Taiken-ki (= Chronicle of War Memories from a Department Store in Tokyo) and it's basically reflections on the past and future of a department store... lol This sounds like it could be very entertaining.

 

[Ecchi Boy]

Thanks for the translations Mr. Prince I think these oneshots will be awesome series!

 

[kewl0210]

So... Even though Hokenshitsu ended, there's still something? Seems like it's a epilogue type of thing. It says "What is Hades-sensei like 5 years later?".

 

[kaze1028]

HxH will be back in issue #35-36 (8th August) and the anime will start in Fall.

ハンター秋から再アニメ化だよ。
制作はマッドハウス。キャストは総入れ替えらしい。

Madhouse?

 

[Steffan]

*Shameless selfbump*

Can anyone who has the newest Jump issue let us know the results of the 47th Treasure Award?
I didn't hear anything from Shueisha so I guess I haven't won anything, but I'm still very curious to see the results.

It'd be very much appreciated!

 

[kewl0210]

Holy shit, Fall? It's starting THAT soon? Well I guess they really do do these things in bunches. The volumes, the magazine issues, and now the anime all in the same season. Can't wait till some more info comes out. And issue 35-36, huh? So it'll start then there'll be none for a week, again. Same thing happened 2 or 3 years ago...
The posters and bags and stuff are the "free goods" they mentioned.

The only details are "TV Anime Series airing starting Fall 2011" and "check weekly Shounen Jump for more info".

 

[Bomber D Rufi]

Off topic...but I love your sig Kaiten. Chojin Gakuen FTW.

I sort of wonder though, with HXH coming back (ironically I just started watching the 62 episode version that viz put out.), does this mean that Togashi is getting close to ending the manga? Or at least getting to a normal-like schedule? This is similar to how the new FMA panned out anyway.

Also, how many jump series will be on at once starting this fall? Gintama, One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Toriko, Sket Dance.....I'm sure I'm missing one but hot damn. If only Sunday could get a few more anime out there...

EDIT. The one I was missing was Beelzebub. Though I guess Mago counts too.

[kaiten]Choujin is such a fun, weird little series. I love it. I'm slowly turning into a Bessatsu Shounen Magazine fanboy. Nakayama should serialize something there, perfect match for his style.[/kaiten]

I don't think Togashi will return to normal schedule, but I do think Togashi might finish the Ant arc within next 10-20 chapters since the HxH anime has returned.

 

[Kaiten]

If I had to guess he is getting close to ending the Ant Arc, I guess last years developments made that kind of obvious though. I have a feeling this run of chapters will be the conclusion. Given the timing I bet we get another twenty chapters too, with hiatus timed to make room for a new series in issue 1 or 2 of 2012.

Madhouse?

translation and source? will there be a new cast?

I wish I could find more raws. The scantlators are killing me. I've slowly become much more comfortable reading raws than scantlations so the more the better. Bessatsu is turning out to be pretty awesome though. Kodansha's got some quality stuff.

Madhouse is going to be responsible for the animation.
Anime will start airing in fall.
Probably new cast. The source is 2ch, so I guess we shouldn't hold our breaths.

Images of Neuro make BDR something something. I'm sure Madhouse will do a good job, but....I really really looked forward to the Neuro anime. >_> Sure Claymore fans will be happy though.

That does make more sense. Hope springs eternal. Though there's a lot of crap going down now. I wonder how it'll all end?

20 chapters again? Yeah that sounds about right. With Madhouse doing the anime, I'm positive that we aren't getting an anime reboot, just a possibly rushed ants arc. I sure hope Madhouse can change my mind about this adaptation....I don't doubt it'll look amazing, but pacing is an issue with me.

Neuro had it's faults but Madhouse is still one of the best animation studio's in Japan. It's encouraging to know they are involved. They will invest in the production, there won't be any moving backgrounds/stationary characters during action scenes, and the art will be top notch. Considering how high profile a project this will be, it would not be unreasonable to think their A-team will be involved. Hopefully animators involved with Paprika, Tatami Galaxy, or Redline will be involved.

That's my guess anyway. It would be odd for it to come back in August, only to go back on hiatus three weeks into October. They've added new series in October before (Hatsukoi Ltd.) but it's kind of a rarity.
