So with DRRR finishing up, I wonder if they will try to finish up a complete adaption of Natsume's. Regardless, a season 5 is well welcomed.

The manga is still ongoing, so unless they finish both at roughly the same time, I imagine Season 5 will end like the previous seasons.

I think I have died and gone to heaven!

I just hope NISA will license this season too. They've been quiet on the anime licensing scene lately.

Very Happy
So glad they're creating another season. Enjoyed the first four and the manga is one of the few ongoing that I'm actively collecting.
Very Happy

Yeah, I keep up with the manga but what I meant more or less was whether this will be a one off thing or if they are having backstage plans to do an eventual season 6 or split cours till it does finish.

Hell, yes! I'm following the manga, but animated Natsume is even better. Very Happy

Wow! I already felt blessed with four seasons, apparently it's doing well enough to warrant a FIFTH season. I mean, have you EVER heard of an anime series getting a fifth season greenlit?! The only one I can think of is Bakemonogatari, though I'm not sure if they're all real sequels since I couldn't get past the first episodes of the first season.

I can never get enough of Nyanko-sensei's antics and some heartfelt Natsume-drama.

That is because every season of Natsume has managed to average above 10k each...it is very very rare to have a series to span over 4 seasons and still make above 10k in sales..so yeah it is not that suprising ti see it have more.

I'm so happy I could cry!!
This is one of my two most favorite anime of all time, I rewatch a ton of random episodes throughout the series like twice a year. This is so fantastic!

This show has the most loyal fanbase ever. Even a 6th and 7th season seem realistic. There have been shows that have sold a ton more but they usually drop in sales big time over the years, but this stays right at that 10k mark.
