| Hey there! So, the airing date for this is incorrect. According to Crunchyroll: http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2015/05/24-1/city-hunter-new-anime-in-the-works-as-oad It will be released as a bonus OAD for the purchasers of all 12 volumes of the manga's upcoming new editions titled "City Hunter XYZ Edition," which will be published for the 30th anniversary of the manga started in 1985. The first two volumes are scheduled to be released on July 18 at the price of 1,728 yen (about 14.20 US dollars) each. So, only the first two volumes of the manga's new edition were published on the 18th. Meaning, we still have to wait for the additional 10 volumes to be published before the DVD actually gets released. Looking on Amazon.co.jp: http://www.amazon.co.jp/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?__mk_ja_JP=%E3%82%AB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%8A&url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=%E3%82%B7%E3%83%86%E3%82%A3%E3%83%BC%E3%83%8F%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BC+XYZ+edition It appears that they've been releasing two volumes each month. [*]Volumes 1 & 2 - July 18th [*]Volumes 3 & 4 - August 20th [*]Volumes 5 & 6 - September 19th ...and Volumes 7 & 8 are slated for October 20th If they stick to this release schedule, then Volumes 11 & 12 (along with the OVA for whomever purchased all 12 volumes) will be released in mid-December. Thus, we should change the airing date to December 2015. |

That makes a lot of sense, actually. Anyway, thanks for the update! |

The only video I can find on it is the short 1-minute preview video for it which began making the rounds in October 2015, which was quite a few months after the first two volumes came out. If it was a pre-order bonus that became available at the beginning of the manga's re-publication, then why would they have a preview in October 2015 for something that people could have already potentially gotten their hands on? |

| I download the OAD in the old release date, but it seems like now nobody have it. His duration is 3 minutes approx (sorry, i thought that his length was 7 min), it's more like an animated manga; but the rare about this is that some of the images previewed in the trailer there isnt in the OAD Capture of the video: http://i65.tinypic.com/wjb67q.jpg |

| There were two specials released on October 24 and November 13. The first is approximately 1 minute long, while the second is 4 minutes and 20 seconds. However, the footage in them are not the OVA itself. The reports appear to indicate that they are segments of a longer work which has yet to be released. |
| May is over and it has not yet been released. |

I'm still unsure as to what exactly they are going to release? Is it just a short promo or is it actually a full ova? |

I'm still unsure as to what exactly they are going to release? Is it just a short promo or is it actually a full ova? I'm unsure about everything. MAL lists the OVA as having a duration of 20 minutes, but I don't know where that data comes from. I'd have to imagine it's already been released at this point, but... I don't even see it listed under the "works" section on Kamikaze Douga's website... http://www.kamikazedouga.co.jp/contents/index.html Nor is it shown in their video on their youtube channel which re-caps their works from 2015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgCpPnid-XE Did they drop the project or put it on hiatus or something? I'm so confused... |
