Mai-HiME Movie?
The latest issue of Newtype also contains a three-page advertisement for Mai-HiME and Mai-Otome. It’s mostly nothing special, just a bunch of release dates for the DVDs and manga, but this single line is very interesting.

舞衣が!なつきが!命が!!幻の劇場版「舞―HiME2」予告
This line came from the description of Mai-Otome DVD Vol.1 First Pressing. The rest isn’t very important, but “劇場版「舞―HiME2」予告” translates to “Theatrical release Mai-HiME 2 preview”… Then again, “幻” (illusion) could either refer to the fact that its existence was officially unconfirmed until now, or that this “preview” clip is just a self-parody. I’m guessing the latter… Oh well.
Anyway, there’s also apparently a PSP game coming out for Mai-HiME titled Mai-HiME: Bakuretsu! Fuumi Gakuen Gekitoushi?!. It’s basically a 2D fighting game… I wish they just ported Unmei no Keitouju from PS2 instead.

[...] First off, there seems to be news of a Mai HiME movie from the Mai HiME DVD’s. I’m not sure if it’s translation error or misprints, but it proves to be quite interesting for a Nao-sama worshipper.. erm.. I mean Mai HiME fanboys all round. I dunno how they’re gonna write it out, but possibly it could just be a whole recap episode extended to 1.5 hours. [...]
