Any of you guys reading Sankarea? Well it's good news if you do, as we now have a website confirming that the next two volumes of manga will contain OVAs. I don't doubt that many of you will never of heard of this manga, so allow me to drop in a synopsis, courtesy of MAL:

Furuya's obsessed with zombies. He collects any figurines, watches any movie, and plays any game with the living dead, and is even only interested in zombie girls. When his cat dies, Furuya begins trying to raise it from the dead using an ancient book of the occult he bought from a shop. But what will happen when he sees the idol of a nearby all girl's school walking close to where he conducts his experiment, wishing to die and be reborn as a different person?

It seems that the first of these OVAs, releasing on June 8th, will be an original story penned by the author himself. The second OVA will be based on the existing manga, and is set to come out on November 9th. It's a bit of a wait, but I must say the synopsis has certainly piqued my interest. Zombies are still cool, right?
