This doesn't have a pretty witch on it, but it's somewhat important page on understanding what the WW is all about (if anyone would bother to translate the whole thing, that is).
I think it came out sometime this year, so it perhaps talks about some subtle changes they made into the format then.
Also, at the lower left, is the famous part where Humikane mentioned he would wish to see more media on 502nd or Suomus withces. As we know some of that has already come true.

>>6610
This is something similar. I think this came before that other one, february or march or something.
Again, I don't know if you want to add these to your collection, but if these were ever to be translated, I bet they would turn out to be somewhat insightful.

>Also, at the lower left, is the famous part where Humikane mentioned he would wish to see more media on 502nd or Suomus withces.
Aha, so that's where this is from!

I think those are a very welcome addition. Especially if someone starts a translating these WW scans. Some of the lower quality scans will be hard though, the text is barely readable...

Either way, I'm guessing/hoping we'll see a complete (fan) translation of all of these, once The World Witches artbook is released:

>Liberion(?) night witch
USL! USL! USL! USL!

>>7076
She is of Noble Hispanian (Spaniard) Lineage. She's affiliated with the freedomland military though.

Go read the wiki or something.

So assuming this pattern of the 506th being completed, Isaac would be next right?

Once the 506th is completed, majority of Witches will have completed articles as well!

501st = I don't think they need WW articles
502nd = completed
504th = completed
506th = completed
507th = completed
Wight = completed
Participants of the Fuso Sea Incident = completed
All prominent Karlsland Witches = completed
All prominent Suomus Witches = completed (Antia / Anita seems too obscure for now)

You know what this means. In the month after the next, Humikane will either introduce the rest of the still undesigned 505th, 508th or finally work on giving a proper reveal to the rest of the 503rd (half of them have proper illustrations, but the rest of them have been shadowed for God knows how long)

>>7098
Or he could go for more obscure world witches? Not very likely, but it's a possibility.

I'm guessing/hoping 503rd will be next.

>>7100

Humikane will prefrer create new witches that make profile of the rest of 503, 505 and 508

Mark my words

>>7098

>506 Completed

I DON´T think so

http://strikewitches.wikia.com/wiki/Carla_von_Rosen

She is a member of 506 and STILL DON´T HAS A DESIGN

>>7103
>Stated in her bio to be an Irregular Member.
>In all group sketches with the 506th, she isn't even in there.

Unlike Ayaka who was officially in the 505th for a period of time before transferring out, Carla never was officially under the 506th as she declined her invitation. Thus, she definitely doesn't qualify as a 506th Witch.

>>7103
Actually, there still Isabelle without a WW illustration, too.

>Antia
Oh man, the typo is still in her name. Poor Eini.

>>7163

Has anybody mailed/tweeted Humikane and told that it's spelled Anita?

I still don't quite get why you guys think Antia is a typo.
It's a proper Latin name.
Sure, it's a lot more obscure than Anita, but name's a name.
And Antia definitely sounds more like Antero than Anita.

I don't really understand why this is bothering you guys so much.

Like the anons before said, next in line would be Isaac.

And with this, all currently well-known JFW Witches are completed.

Next month, either Humikane decides to introduce to us the rest of the 503rd or 505th or he will finally introduce some witches of the elusive 508th.

Well, he could also throw us a curveball by putting spotlight on the 31st Africa Squadron. I wouldn't mind.

>>7166
It's pretty obvious it's a typo.

Antia is not a finnish name.
Anita on the other hand is and it was most popular around 1940s.

Source: first name search on http://verkkopalvelu.vrk.fi/Nimipalvelu/default.asp?L=3

>>7166

Anita is an actual Finnish name, Antia is not. It's that simple.

>>7187
>>7189
Alright, that's fair.

But I still don't think it was a typo.
I'm pretty sure neither Humikane nor Suzuki would let it slip past them.
And if you know anything about Japanese phonetic system, there's no way to misspell Anita and Antia.

>>7170
503rh is pretty likely.
He's already drawn then n all.
I hope he'd do some 508th though.

>>7194
>I'm pretty sure neither Humikane nor Suzuki would let it slip past them.
I'm pretty sure they could. When I talked to SWYattuke about this, he linked a japanese site listing finnish names and it had Antia in it, lol. Human error is a very real thing - and also a very likely explanation when it comes to Japanese working with latin alphabet.

>And if you know anything about Japanese phonetic system, there's no way to misspell Anita and Antia.
I know what you mean. You can't really accidentally write アンチア instead of アニタ. It's not really a typo per se.
But consider this possibility: They looked up finnish female names similar to Antero, written in latin alphabet. They found Anita, they accidentally copied it as Antia and at that point the damage was already done. Or alternatively, they used a faulty name list as explained earlier.

>>7194

He has said today on twitter that the next three articles will be on the 3 Karlsland witch from 501st to commemorate the OVA.

So 501st will have their own WW articles now..??

>>7200
The point of WW is to expand the setting of Strike Witches beyond what we know in the anime and to give information and spotlight about the other witches that aren't the 501st.

Why would they spend a WW article on the 50tst who we already know so much about and has been shoved down our mouths so many Times?

>>7200
>>7201

That's what he said, and honestly we never had a profile picture of the 501st witches apart from the sketches for the original OVA. That said, he also wrote that the original intent of the WW articles was to show the least known witches before the 501st and that they would eventually receive their own articles, so now it's the time.

I suppose that for the second OVA we could also get an article about Neumann.

>>7202
>we never had a profile picture of the 501st witches
The first Strike Witches Fan Book has inclusive character guide pages for all of them.

>>7203
Obviously, I intended drawn by humikane himself.

>>7204
Oh sorry, my bad. I'm more interested in the articles and facts than the illustrations so I didn't even consider that.

>Humikane in charge of stalling because he still is too lazy to design the other Witches

>>7212
The next two months are confirmed to be the other two in the 501st's Karlsland Trio.

>inb4 two-thirds of 2015's World Witches series will be spent on covering the rest of the 501st.

Hahaha. Goddamit Humikane you crazy fuck.

>>7195
>When I talked to SWYattuke about this, he linked a japanese site listing finnish names and it had Antia in it

Somebody with moonspeak skills should email that site and inform them, if that's the sort of things nips use as an actual source.

The site linked in >>7187 is a great source because 1) it's based on official census records and 2) it lists how many times a given name has been used and in which decade, meaning it's great for finding period-appropriate names, as well as finding particularly common or rare names if you want one.

(Another misstep that would have been easily avoided by using that site would have been Nipa's official name "Nikka", which is exceedingly rare - less than ten uses total - and only used after 1980. Even "Ninja" would have been a more common name. Imagine that - Ninja Edwardine Katajainen.)

If they wanted a female name similar to Antero, they could have used Angervo, which has the same vowels.

>>7213

so, there is no time for the others JFWs, but now the 501 will have too "World Witches profiles"

DAMN 501

>>7216
Maybe they need to keep one of the other JFWs secret for the third season.

>>7216
Just the karlslanders, calm your pants.

Though Shirley & Lucchini are probably next because of OVA 2.

Does Neumann have her WW article..??

>>7219
No. She'll probably get one with OVA2.

>>7214
>Nipa's official name "Nikka", which is exceedingly rare - less than ten uses total - and only used after 1980.
In practice, that means it is not a finnish-language name. The PRC name service also lists foreign names given to children of immigrant couples born and registered in Finland.

Alas, it is way too late to save Nipa from this illiteracy.

Low-quality Trude. Repost if you find a better one.

I really hope the B Unit makes an appearance.
I will have a time to chat with Takaaki Suzuki while he is in Guam, so I'll probably ask him about it.

It's a bit disappointing that he's not the author but Nanbou is.
Nanbou's work on the anime novellization was mediocre at best....

This was posted about an hour ago on a Facebook fan page. Starting a new thread for it felt like a bad call. Hopefully posting it here doesn't offend anyone...

The FB is titled "Art from the 506th light novel!"

There is a thread for the 506th novel a few pages back you know.

>>7952

Welp, I can't delete it now so it's up to a mod or whoever to kindly move it. :)

Did World Witch articles go on hiatus?

Also, when will Humikane get to finishing the rest of the 503rd?
