English Translation, Twitter Translate

Many of the people haven’t heard of Cardfight!! Vanguard ever in their lives, and it is okay because the anime, as well as the game, isn’t much popular in the Western world. But in Japan, it’s a sensation, often termed as ‘a baby of Yu-gi-oh.’ 

2. Theory Section

Cardfight!! Vanguard has a massive exposure in Japan. It’s a phenomenon out there, it’s relatively new, but the people there are crazy for the game. There are massive posters on buildings, buses and train stations too. The brand awareness is literally mad over there. Bushiroad certainly knows how to keep the hype alive.

(a) The Studio

As of now, there is no news on which studio will be adapting the new series. It’s highly likely that ‘Studio OLM’ would be back and will continue the production for the franchise.

(b) Why is it popular?

CF Vanguard is at its core a simple and fun game to play and enjoy with your friends. It got a ton of traction and popularity, thanks to the advertisements of Bushiroad and several anime series over the years. 

The Japanese are gaga over the game as well as the anime series. Often, it is compared to Yu-gi-oh in terms of gameplay and enjoyment. The anime series has a good story, decent animation, and vast lovable characters. 

Despite being a superhit in the native country, neither the anime nor the game was able to make a mark outside of Japan.

CF Vanguard is still unknown to many; it doesn’t enjoy the same popularity as that of Yu-gi-oh, but it is one of a kind and extremely appealing to the Japanese audience. 

(c) Production Update

As of the last update, Studio OLM, Bushiroad, or any other production company related to CF Vanguard hasn’t revealed any new information yet. The only little info we have been exposed to is the premiere year, i.e., 2020. 

If all things go right, the new anime series might get released before Fall 2020, or if delayed by any chance, then it might get shifted in the slots of 2021 also.

From the looks of it, the visual is pointing towards a female lead. In the background, there’s an archbird there, so she probably is Tachi. However, the concept art also suggests Kagero. All hail the Dragon Empire.
