I saw this at the official site for Mai Hime Destiny.

I so wish this would get animated one day. It looks so cool with them all in battle stance. I read some translations of the novel and liked it.

Next S.ifr episode for July is such a long wait...

If I don't misinterpret the new announcement on the official site the 2nd Episode will be released on 25th of July which is very late. Don't know what the site exactly says cause I can't read japanese

Rogueman, I saw your snapshots of the book at animesuki and I quite agree the artbook itself is not all that great considering its mainly have images we have seen before in other artbooks. And I was hoping to see Hisayuki's work that were in his gallery.
The collection of screencaps for Otome and Zwei was pretty much one of the few things I cared about. It brings me back a few good memories of some of the scenes the anime have.
Here I made some half decent scans of the newer images from the artbook.

Lilttle Miss Maria is cute looking

so the next eps is probably next month huh?

More like 2-3 months later if Sunrise follows a typical every other month or two between episodes.

I really also liked ep 1 for the yuri moments and the awesome Rena in battle form. The cilffhanger leaves me very excited for ep 2. Here's hoping Sifr wil continue to be a very good show!

Found this cool group image of characters from Mai Hme-Otome-Zwei-Sifr. (Not quite sure what;s being advertised). Some of the various things going on in the pic are funny.

New Artbook - Mai Otome Otomegraph Premium is available. Here's some scans I got from Animaxis.com.

Its probably has alot of art we have already seen. My copy is on the way, so I hope to see some real good new pics. I'm ~slowly~ working on a new banner for this group
and in need of some specific imagery from the Sifr series if there's any in the book at all.

got the book a couple of weeks ago. there's only 1 or two new artworks, the rest are old. posted some photos @ my blog and animesuki. there's some new production sketches, like the 'maiâ??maid' pages. other than that, it's the worse of the 4 books.

okay I just watched Sifr and I must say it was really awesome.. even much better than Zwei

I never knew rena is that strong, she even overload her Meister gem.. I guess Sapphire is the only gem which can keep with her

so the next eps is probably next month huh?

I watched the raw and the animation looks quite good. Rena's fighting scenes look very impressive. The directing of the action scene seem to look better than the ones in the Otome and Zwei to series.

Familiar Characters of course make thei appearance. Aside from a younger version of John Smith, there's a quick peek of the blond haired Maria Graceburt. I wonder if we would get to see her in action? Mai Hime Destiny characters show up. A Mayo look-alike is a Meister Otome and Shion is her Master.

For a summary and more screencaps, Random Curiosity has it blogged at his/her site------>link
