Thanks to FARGAIA at Sonicanime.net. He has found a article concerning a new projected dealing with new SonicX eps at the TMS site here at http://www.tms-e.co.jp/index2.html since the site is in Japanese and most can't understand it here is a translation that FARGAIA did on the site.

"[on May 30 in 2006]

TOMS entertainment had held a session of new audit for consumer and business person on May 30. The most important matter is that TOMS cooperates with SEGA SAMMY HOLDINGS and SEGA TOYS, and is planning to throw 4 new animations into market.


4 new animations mean

『オシャレ魔女ラブandベリー』 　Oshare-majyo Love & Berry
『ソニックX』　SonicX
『爆丸』　Bakumaru

And, the 4th animation is untitled.

'Oshare-majyo Love & Berry' is so popular Arcade game in Japan. Especially, this game has strong popularity between teen kids. This card version had already gotten over 104,000,000 pieces. This is just marvelous.

'SonicX' is Animation series of Sonic The Hedgehog which has world-wide scale popularity and makes a boost of 40 million total sales all over the world.

And 'Bakumaru' is cartoon series of new gene toy such as BayBlade. Now 'Bakumaru' begins to catch teen kids heart and lead the latest trend.

This animation plan is very effective for multimedia development of each work and we can expect synergy with the game series. Some companies including SEGA have strong expectation for this media strategy. Therefore TOMS has so big responsibility and must accomplish this important mission."

I checked the Sky website and Sonic X is now back on at weekends at 2PM! This could probably mean the rest of season 3 will be showing!

It's a brand new era of STC-O and the perfect jump-on point for new readers, with the start of three new strips and the introduction of a brand new menace for Sonic & the gang!

Meanwhile, Amy Rose stars in the world's only hybrid of Love Actually and 28 Days Later, and the Freedom Fighter's old enemy Max Gamble returns as Tails & Amy hit the mean streets of the Casino Night Zone - but is Max the real enemy, or is there someone else behind the gang attacks on them?
