This is A-1 saying pretty much fuck it we're a month out from the end of our cour, we have one popular character so lets just milk the fanservice on her completely to the end. Everything and everyone else is completely irrelevant and they might as well just do a full on main heroine swap now if they haven't already. Might as well just commit to the full on heroine swap at this point since it's the Kirin show now.

It's just another typical shitty battle harem anime. Now that they've figured out the character otaku respond to after last weeks episode the whole thing is going to revolve around her. They're even doing half anime original episodes around her just to salvage this shit and it'll likely work even if it means the show barely gets adapted anymore.

It's 12 + 12. For whatever reason Aniplex and Bandai Namco seem to think this show holds tremendous potential. They're already making a video game adaptation for it and Aniplex committed straight up to it and even announced it at one of the American cons like it was this big major announcement that just had to be done on an international stage instead of in Japan like usual.

I haven't been on /a/ for two seasons (just been, y'know actually watching the anime) but is that actually true?

>>
>>133801441

Well like I said at this point they just seem to be trying to salvage the season with maximum fan service and exploiting the shows most and possibly only kind of popular character to date with full throttle fanservice. It's the same kind of thing they did with Saekano and it worked well enough there so I guess we'll see what happens in another couple months. I fully expect it to sell at least 1.5-2 times whatever it's stalker estimate is because of the Aniplex padding effect. Some Japanese fans speculate when their shows are half flopping they like to buy back part of their own stock to save face as they seem to have this obsession with trying to portray themselves as number 1 all the time.
>>
>>133801780

Aniplex hyped their own show like they always do, not sure about actual fans. Maybe it'll show up in the next Newtype awards who knows.
>>
>>133801780
Both sides were fueled by shitposters but Rakudai unfortunately had two or three actual autistic fucks genuinely hyping it up. Nobody on /a/ actually expected much from these shows aside from the fact that they were going to get more budget/better staff than the average LN adaptation.

Also if you meant discs sales, it had a boost thanks to the events and half price tickets.
I would buy them if I got such an offer given how expensive the blue rays are.
>>
>>133802097

The shows BD sales were a mediocre 6-7K average when it pulled out pretty much all the stops in terms of mega hyped staffing, casting and advertising. That show was supposed to be the biggest thing they've done to date clearly with how much went into it's marketing campaign and all the posters all over Akihabara and TV specials they pulled out at the time. They also made it clear that they were going after Gundam but to my knowledge the show never really had any successful merchandise and actually sold worse on Blu-Ray than even G-Reco. It's going to be forgotten faster than Star Driver and Guilty Crown. When it comes to originals A-1 should really just stick to the weepy melodrama teen youth anthem stuff, it's about all they're good at.
>>
>>133802097
It doesn't mean shit when they invest a lot on it too.
>>
>>133802236

It's pretty impressive how it's sales went steadily downhill into the second season. Unsurprisingly the Gen Urobuchi written episodes on the first volume did by far the best of any of them and it's the only time I've ever really seen a 1st volume BD start with 3 episodes on it. It's just so crystal clear that they banked practically everything about this project on Urobuchi's name for branding and wanted to make sure all the episodes made it onto that one disc. After he left they had absolutely no idea what to do with the project other than to keep trying to work his name like he was still involved and maybe rely on Sawano hype. Show had piss poor planning beyond the marketing campaign, just like Asterisk is looking.
>>
>>133802236
>The shows BD sales were a mediocre 6-7K average
Those aren't shitty sales.
Anything below 3500 is shit.

Want to know about mega hyping everything about a show yet sold like shit?
>Nagi no Asukara
>PA Works's 20th anniversary project
>hiring a top artist like Buriki
>the most ambitious project of the studio in its story
>Mari Okada the writer idol
>etc

And what they got?
1500 sales on the first week which made them starts a truly aggressive publicity that included hiring a famous press writer to write about their shit which only got praise on music and their usual porn scenary which is your average PAW.

And a month after reached about 5000 and I doubt the inversion paid off.
>>
>>133802236
>>133802536

When you look at the drop off it's like almost a third of the shows sales pretty much came from the Urobuchi branding. That doesn't help at all with merchandising since it's not like they can claim Urobuchi personally made the figurines or trinkets himself or something. I also liked the model kit line that was promised early into the shows run when they were expecting a monster Gundam slaying hit again ostensibly cause Urobuchi, but that never materialized and was never mentioned again by Aniplex in any of their marketing. I don't even think it managed to get so much as a video game adaptation though there was a short live Slaine manga, the character that much like Kirin they decided to bank everything they could on in the second cour because it was evidently clear he was the only character people were even remotely responding too.
>>
>>133802695

It is when it's like the biggest show you've done to date and you've set your target at Gundam and are milking every big name that's ever worked for you. They can't have made too much money off of the project for all that went into it since again it pretty much had zero merchandising. Even Saekano did decently with merchandise, it was a more successful show for A-1 easily.
>>
>>133802745

It's okay anon, some people just don't understand that having a magic number over some arbitrary amount doesn't mean your show is some sort of smash success or even success. Imagine if economics and calculating net profits were actually that simple though and every shows production costs and marketing campaigns operated at the same flat rate of close to 0.

Gargantia was just supposed to be another Bandai Visual mecha original starter series, not some egotistical producers vanity project to try to stick it to his former companies biggest franchise. It's funny because they seem perfectly content to work with Sunrise and it's parent company nowadays with the whole Daisuki initiative of which Asterisk is a part, but I don't know if that partnership was decided before Ueda started with the shit talking or after.
>>
>>133803455

If anything I expect them to up the amount of screen time Kirin gets and the rest of the cast to be further forgotten. From what I understand this episode is borderline anime original just to give her more screen time. I still remember when A-1 started to go all anime original with the first season of Magi when it becoming clear that the characters people were responding most too were Alibaba and Sinbad.

>>133804165
I mean if they wanted to show her in a swimsuit why not just bring everyone and be done with it.

Manabu Ono's light novel adaptation career

>Go to Sunrise/Bandai Visual->Make adaptation of middle tier popular LN series Horizon->20K sales
>Go to Madhouse/Aniplex->Make adaptation of smash hit tier popular LN series Mahokua->10K sales
> Go to A-1/Aniplex->Make adaptation of low tier popular LN series Asterisk->5K sales?

Boy I bet all these people from Sunrise, J.C Staff and Kyoani's stable that went to work for Aniplex projects over the last couple of years after working on some really well received works for other producers are really loving that decision.
>>
>>133804346

Cause they've clearly decided nobody cares about anybody that isn't Kirin anymore. The only time the shows sales have noticeably gone up in a given week have been the episodes that focused on Kirin, nothing else is really working.

>>133805046
There's a first thing for everything. Pure fanservice gag episodes are fun and amusing, but doesn't do well in the plot and interesting department.
>>
>>133805046
I disagree. Saya and her other foil rival made this episode super interesting and relaxing. Rakudai tries too hard with each episode, it's distasteful in comparison to Asterisk.
>>
When are more people going to realize that A-1 is fucking dog shit despite all their hyping, branding, advertising, promises and early series enhanced budgets? Hit or miss at absolute best is what I'd give them maybe, but they're just so far up their own ass and make so many stupid decisions with how to approach their projects and schedule things that it's probably a testament to how stupid and gullible anime fans are nowadays that they've managed to stay solvent as an enterprise and generally praised despite reported large consecutive drops in operating income since 2013 despite all the shit that's gone on in the last couple years with botched adaptations of major properties that really shouldn't have been, killing their animators via overwork and just being incapable of holding a proper schedule do to overloading on samey projects in what looks like a quantity over quality attempt to cash in on the whole swords and sorcery fantasy phenomenon and/or melodramatic crying anime while it's still hot and the most famous staffers for the genres are still available.

Anyway the reported drop in their income coincides with their decision to start taking on 5-6 or so projects every fiscal quarter and fuck their scheduling hard so in their infinite wisdom they'll no doubt double down on that approach for a third consecutive year in 2016 and somehow still win best studio of the year from Newtype and be the darling of sites like MAL and Crunchyroll.

Their producers seem to be the Taro's is how I think it works. All the gothloli-sama's are just borrowed key animators from Sunrise, J.C Staff and the like.

What a wasted design.

Not him, but the only shitty Saenai is Megumi.

Megumi is objectively the best Saekano. It's not even up for discussion.

Your opinion is objectively the worst opinion.

This kind of blunt but sincere honesty reminds me of a certain character. Either way, I like it.

/a/ is right. Megumifags are the worst. Not far from Stellafags at all.
>>

>have shit character physically assault her
This was the worst. I mean, it would've ended in a duel regardless, but throwing the first punch and still winning in one shot is annoying to watch.
>>
>>133805880
Megumi plus Utaha were the only things Saenai had going for it.

battle harem is a popular genre. IS bot ova and series sold above 30 k. around 37 k for series around 34k for ova
>>
Can't escape from Saekano cancer

>>133806324
IS was an outlier. The usual battle harem LN adaptation have mediocre-break even sales on average.

I'm not saying that it isn't popular or fun to watch.
I'm saying that all the contestants are retarded.
>>
>>133806223
>moralfag
>hothead
But those are good traits for her. Julis is understanding and aboveboard because she follows a code of ethics. But being a hothead gives balances through contrasts to make her not stiff and boring.

>>133806281
Here's your reply. Except she is a complete and proper classic tsundere, a good one at that.

You're wrong. battle harem has been produced a lot and many of them receiving 2nd season even more than 3 seasons.

Yes, because someone coming out of the woodworks talking shit is on the same level as someone telling him to fuck off. Also, the "amusement" only lasted for about 2 replies.

>>133806574
Mate, there have been 2-5 battle harems every season for a long friggin' time and most of them either sold just enough or okay, and pretty much all of them have been mildly enjoyable at best.
I can only think of three or four off the top of my head that sold worth a damn.
>>
>>133806736
Okay.
>>
>>133806562
Nope. This thread is a typical example that shows Megumifags are the worst. Consistency doesn't lie.

I think her being understanding is that she's dealt with kids a lot. Her code of ethics ensures that she does the right thing. I love her character. She's a noble girl, but she isn't completely pompous or an asshat about it. Though I really want to see her a situation where she has to choose between her morals and beliefs or someone's life. Those sort of situations are always interesting.

vandread, tenchi series, that louise baka to test season 1, zero no tsukaima and many other. actually even bakemonogatari can be classifed as battle harem though

Older franchise like tenchi etc is harder to find the sales number.

>>133806960
I'm taking this side because one shitposter is pretending Megumifags were at fault when none of this would have happened if the first shitposter hadn't talked shit about her first, probably as "revenge" for Eriri being insulted. He is just as bad. All in all, this is just living proof of how terrible the Sakeano fanbase is overall. Poiting fingers is stupid.

Now, enough derailment already.
