I've known about this for a while...back in March, when I was researching for new anime series.

"On November 9th, 2006, Madhouse Studios announced on their website that they will create an animated series based on Maple Story."

The online game first beta tested in Japan in August 2003 and today claims 1.4 million memberships there, mostly made up of those in their teens. The free, 2D, side-scrolling MMORPG boasts several versions of the game available for specific countries or regions and an estimated 50 million players have participated in all of its versions to date.

I'm wondering how Madhouse Studios is gonna pull this one off....but rest assure...Madhouse Studios ain't no amateur...they've been round since the 70's. :lol:

MapleStory DS (Nintendo DS...duh :P ) is to released worldwide in September 2007.......I'm soooo getting it. :lol:

Some random MapleStory clip...with Naruto, Ichigo and even Asian Kung-Fu Generation being warped into the Maple Story world.....stupid but funny..lol. XD : -

[Shinozaki]

wow, MS got the Anime?? :em0165:

[GSDragonAlchemist]

I've got an account up here. Its a good game and everythings pretty much chibi size:em0128: But its free to install and play. Some parts you can pay for like clothing and stuff. Only prob is that you run into people that use hack programs up there. Really ruins the fun:sic:

[henguy1355]

man, I used to love Maple, now I hate it, cuz it's waaayy too repeptitive. But I'm still gonna try out the anime, what kind of story would there be? Love? lmao

lmaolmaolmao, I can already imagine someone putting up some Maple Doujinshi-Hentai

[fujima55]

Is this series interesting ?if it is i hope it release soon

[autorensool]

Hmm..the MMORPG is fine unless you got WOW or GW and it was pretty fun although grinding gets annoying real soon. However, I really doubt the prospect of an anime related to MMORPG. I mean most of the anime adaptations of games have sucked big time and Maplestory is a MMORPG which means the story simply is too vague for an anime. What will they do for battles? Like follow conventional ones or use true-to-game scenarios? I hate to say this but I really am skeptic about this one, I can see it being a huge failure and won't be surprised if the only one watching it turn out to be obsessed MS players.

[5moreminutes]

how can they make a show about maple story.......

[mario_man]

are you serious maplestorys gonna become an anime i liked the game but then i didnt like it no more it got boring and crap all i did was train

[Zekno]

Hm...didn't know about this. Based on the game I can see how it can be interesting though. I'll keep my eye out.

[ShAdOw-kun]

juz hope the anime wont disappoint me

[SlyXFlyz]

[cedrid]

lol funny movie xD

[Apsody243]

in my opinion anime adaptations of mmo's don't work.
i mean just look at how RO ended up

[Imsol33t]

Oh god this anime was disappointing..its friendship this and working together that during the first episode while the game is about mass murder and genocide -.-, not meaning theres anything wrong with that. It is an MMO after all, what can you expect?

[bboy076]

Meh an anime adaptation of a poor game. I'll pass.

[Ravenmist]

wow souds interesting

[LonelyLynx]
