Studio DEEN has realised that Hakuoki was a success in Japan (and the English version of the game that was released in the US recently is getting good reviews) so it looks that we are going to expect more Hakuoki.

First of all, Kazama Chikage is getting his own OVA in June, being the last of Hakuoki Sekkaroku OVAs.

It also has been green-light the adaptation of Hakuoki's prequel, Hakuoki Reimeiroku for summer.

The story follows a 16 year-old boy called Ibuki Ryunosuke, who was raided by a group of sonnō jōi rōnins when he was heading towards Kyoto. They robbed all of his money, and left him to die. When he was about to starve to death, he is saved by a man called Serizawa Kamo. In exchange for saving him, Ryunosuke is forced to become Serizawa's servant. The place he is taken to is the quarters of a group of rōnins who will eventually be known as "Shinsengumi".

The opening will be performed by Maon Kurosaki (who sang the ending themes for the Hakuōki Sekkaroku OVA project)
Mao will contribute the ending theme song, just like on the first two television series.

If like in Hakuoki they maintain the cast of the game then the seiyuus for the new characters will be:
Quote:

Ibuki Ryuunosuke - Seki Tomokazu
Serizawa Kamo - Nakata Jouji
Niimi Nishiki - Tamura Kensuke
Hirama Juusuke - Ueda Youji
Kosuzu - Nishino Youko
Oume - Shinomiya Saya
Sasaki Aijirou - Nomiya Kazunori
Along with the rest of the main cast of Hakuoki (except Chizuru)

And a production on a two-part Hakuōki film project that will open next year has been green-lit. The film will tell an all-new story. Aika Yoshioka, the singer for the previous anime projects' opening theme songs, will contribute the theme song for the films.
