I don't think there's a thread for this yet, so...
Guardian Enzo has brought this to my attention over Twitter, but it seems that Adachi is preparing a new monthly series called Mix, which will take place in Meisei, 26 years after 'Touch'.
As expected, it'll be running on Monthly Shounen Sunday, following up that announcement about a new Adachi series that was supposed to be starting soon.
Anyway, I simply love Touch, and to this day it's still my favourite work by Mitsuru Adachi, and probably my favourite anime/manga work of all time. Cross Game, H2, KATSU!, all of those were awesome, but nothing quite got me as the Tatsuya x Minami relationship, so, yeah, I'm honestly really excited for this, despite not knowing how exactly he'll be playing the whole future Meisei setting.
It's also intriguing how (and why) he decided to go back to it after all these years, and as Guardian Enzo put it on his blog, it might be a small sign of desperation, since the Touch name would definitely get more people on board given its enormous popularity. However, he's also growing old (60 this year), so I wonder if there aren't any personal reasons for revisiting what was probably the title that made him (along with Miyuki, I guess?) who he is today. I'm fairly sure I also read stuff about how the brother rivalry thing was based off his own experiences with his late brother, so... who knows?
One way or the other, I can't wait. Here's hoping this one will go far and keep being updated, as opposed to Over Fence! :heh:
