Kadokawa's Sneaker Bunko has laid out new print plans for fantasy comedy Konosuba. A long awaited art book is now scheduled. All you wanted to see and know about Aqua, Megumin and Darkness will all be in "Cheer!", an A4, 128-page collection of classic and new material from Natsume Akatsuki and of course Kurone Mishima, shipping February 1, 2017 for 3,024yen.

Meanwhile, Sneaker Buno has launched the first chapter of new spin-off Continued*Gifting this Wonderful World with Explosions!





As with the earlier Akasuki and Morino Kasumi's earlier Explosions!, this follows Megumin and her frienemy Yunyun, and Iris (a princess "little sister" to Kazuma from volume 6) as they try their hand at being thieves.

Season 2 of the anime is planned for winter 2017.
