And WTF! 4:3! ratio! This is 2010! Stop giving us fullscreen dammit!
In theory, it's getting a 4:3 broadcast and a 16:9 DVD/BD release, just like the previous two Ikki-Tousen series and other shows like Queen's Blade and Juuden-chan. I don't see the need to say "stop giving us fullscreen," as true fullscreen anime are essentially a thing of the past. Can anyone recall the last time a show was purely made in 4:3 and never got a later 16:9 broadcast or home video version? Excluding kiddy shows and short-format shows (e.g. Chi's New Home), I don't think there's been a new natively-4:3 TV anime since Manabi Straight. And that was a little over three years ago.
