Shows that deserved a second season.
>>143602150
The show ended at the point right before the manga turned to shit.
>>143602338
I heard the same about Usagi Drop.
Do you think they could have ignored the manga and just went with their own story?
Were the shows that didnt get a second season not popular in Japan? Or are they cancelled for other reasons like budget or trends.
>>143602401
Anything else would have been an improvement. The plot and characters remained completely static for the entirety of the manga and the ending was just a giant "fuck you".
>>143602701
Spoilers?
>>143602773
Right as they're about to kiss, the MC says "actually nevermind" and then nothing happens and then its over
How has one not happened yet.
There are some shows that i want to see more of, but i know they wouldnt be as good if they continued.
>>143602801
Classic cuck.
>>143602843
While I hate tripfags I have to admit I miss how comfy the show was.
>>143602606
Most non-mainstream shit that were adapted into anime were just for promotion sake to boosts manga sales anyway.
>>143602150
great action, good story and characters
>>143602150
>>143602801
What is it with Manga and Anime creators not moving characters forward in the story?
Your lucky to even get a kiss in some of these shows.
>>143602897
There were no other men around. The author believes that handholding and hugging and kissing before marriage is degenerate, basically.
>>143602150
As much as I loved Urabe, no thank you.
>>143603016
Classic cucks

you don't want it and it doesn't deserve it
fuck the author
Please tell me this is getting a second season.
I will hold the studio hostage if they dont.
>>143603004
They didn't follow the books so retconning the ending would've been weird
There's a lot of novels they could've adapted though.

What a cuck
It's not impossible for it to happen, bit it's pretty unlikely.
>>143602150
As much as I loved the anime for being 100% faithful to the manga's designs and actually being a good adaptation; it ended right before the manga got stuck on Namek.
That Fucking Idol Arc went on for over a year and we got nothing from it.
>pic will never be animated
anime didn't sell well, manga is over (why did the artist follow it up with such a generic shounen action series?)
>>143603465
Kiss X Sis has been having a steady stream of OVAs though.
>>143602150
Urabe has the voice of an angel.
>>143602150
I still feel like this would have been better if the characters were genderbent

didn't the Japanese really hate her VA and she's not worked since?
Were we wrong in thinking she was a good actress or was it because she was too different from how anime characters usually sound?
>>143604630
>People were unironically hoping for an NTR plot while the manga was running just so something would happen
>>143604852
I don't think they hated her, she's not an anime voice actress, she works on TV

The manga was fine from start to finish.
>>143603016
>There were no other men around. The author believes that handholding and hugging and kissing before marriage is degenerate, basically.
Thus, the whole premise, as spelled out in the title page to each chapter, besides the parameters of the relationship as defined by the central characters. Highlighting forms of flirt, enticement and romance to a long-term relationship that are NOT hugging and kissing.
>>143603010
>but why?
>What is it with Manga and Anime creators not moving characters forward in the story?
Because then it would be a manga with an entirely different premise.
As this guy and the others were expecting, presumably >>143602701
Aired in 1998 and I'm still waiting
>>143607826
Well the same happened to berserk.
Be wary.
But not from current A-1.
>>143607756
>What would be the problem with that? Characters should move on as life goes on
We can presume that they do once they graduate and marry. That they start hugging and kissing or having snitty running fights as they would in a straight up relationship manga, and eventually have hot, steamy sex with a lot of saliva swapping that would be the subject of an H-manga. People never seemed to get that Nazo no Kanojo X was neither of those, complaining that it didn't transition into one. It was more a slice of life, stuck in a time loop where seasons would come and go but time never moved forward. In no sense was progression important to the theme.
>>143607030
>The manga was fine from start to finish.
they didn't even fucking kiss in the final chapter. MC stopped short because he felt it was too forced at the time, which I can get past if the author didn't decide to end the series right there. It was basically a cliffhanger ending.
>>143602150
God no.
The manga's fatal flaw was that it dragged on for-goddamn-ever, and every time the relationship seemed to take a step forward it would end up taking two steps back a few chapters down the line. The anime ending when it did was a BLESSING.
>>143608672
>In no sense was progression important to the theme.
that's wrong, not only that but it's important to the quality of any plot. A major point of a romance is to see a relationship progress and grow, or to see one happen by the end. In NKX, they pretty much stagnated at swapping saliva and going on dates, there was the occasional potential cuck arcs, but after those they were back at square one, even the end of the manga was them going back to square one.
>>143608569
My man
It'd be really nice if we could get another season of Eureka Seven.;_;
>>143608672
>In no sense was progression important to the theme.
That just means the core premise was flawed.
>>143602150
I would love a Usagi drop: After story.

>A major point of a romance is to see a relationship progress and grow,
That's why I contend that people were fundamentally confused as to the genre they were reading. The manga ran eight years or so, experiencing seasonal changes every three monthly issues and the characters never entered their senior year. Extraneous details like that that might move a relationship along weren't supposed to be important. So it's less an exploration of the relationship of the two...
> In NKX, they pretty much stagnated at swapping saliva and going on dates, there was the occasional potential cuck arcs, but after those they were back at square one
...than sequential snippets of what may happen within any relationship, which is how you perceived this.
>>143609255
If you want to imagine the drool swapping was kissing, they were doing that for the entire manga, with the act of kissing being the next step, akin to fucking. And to the mangaka it was more important to explore anything but this. Simply put, it was Blue Balls: The Theme.
>>143609762
>That just means the core premise was flawed.
Or that you didn't like it, or grew tired with it, expecting something more.

/a/ you have the power to bring back watamote anime it need a push to come back.
>>143610287
>Or that you didn't like it, or grew tired with it, expecting something more.
I don't think expecting a story to follow the most basic story structure is something unreasonable.

The sad thing is that Black Lagoon is fully adapted at the moment. The manga literally does not have another arc to be animated, not even for an OVA.
>>143602150
Why would anyone want more of "Nothing Happens"?
>>143610641
I hope you will aswell.

>>143602150
Something something not enough content.
>>143602150
This
There's enough material for a 1-1.5 cour season 2 now. Going on that Season 1 plus the OVA was 34 chapters, the raws go up to chapter 81 last I checked and this seemed to be the final arc, so they might as well adapt it all the way through.
>>143602701
I would disagree. The characters and the central relationship grew wonderfully. For about 40 chapters.
Then it and the characters regressed and the story stagnated for the rest of its run until it was mercifully euthanized by the publisher.
>>143604852
Basically what >>143605030 said.
But there were autists who whined about her delivery, which was much more natural and reminiscent of her training for screen acting than the strong indicative quality typical of voice and stage actors.
That and she didn't sound like a squirrel on helium, confusing super-weebs who don't know what real females sound like.
>>143612077
Nisekoi's about to end. It wasn't nearly as bad of a ride as it could've been.
See you next season!
>>143602150
>>143614064
the raws are out actually heconfesses to both of them at the same time and they both accept. Harem ending.

>>143602401
Don't talk about the usagi drop manga.
>>143606257
Maybe its a good thing that we will never get another berserk anime. The movies were enough.
>>143602150
The fact that it sold so poorly is a tragedy.
A-am I the only one who really enjoyed this show and its manga?
>>143614972
It's a "weird but I liked it" kind of thing
>>143615123
Its one of the animes I've had the most fun watching which is why I really want a second season.
>>143614972
I loved it. Laughed at least once for episode so yeah, I'd love to see the island animated.
>>143610095
>/a/
Don't include my anon I don't wanty another season.
>>143614307
Shit ending.
>>143613834
It wasn't mercifully euthanized. The publisher was the one at fault. The creator wanted it to end much sooner with the revelation that the lady was an alien. But the publish thought that was dumb and wanted to milk it for longer, so they forced him to continue.
>>143616504
It was both, really. The mangaka didn't want to advance the relationship and wanted Urabe to be an alien, hence all the UFO charms she has.
Publisher told him to stuff that idea and he kept writing but obviously didn't know where to go with it and it lost all its wonderful dreamscapes and Urabe and Tsubaki did nothing but act like imbeciles while their relationship ran in circles.
>>143604303
Definitely; it's an anime I consider 9.5/10 only because I think 10 is impossible. I hate how the distribution fucked any chance of S2.
>>143610134
>Diebuster
I thought Gunbuster was the summation and ultimate mech anime of the late 80's/early 90's, Diebuster is underrated as it touched on the more recent mech related anime but it didn't cover the bases as well as Gunbuster did. I think a sequel would have to wait another 10-20 years to get an accurate feel for the generation it covered.
Apart from that, I thought Hyouka was beautifully animated and the OST was great, an S2 would be perfect to wrap up the series.
Tragic.
There wasn't nearly enough of this.
>>143604148
it is but it didn't need one
>>143610493
>I don't think expecting a story to follow the most basic story structure is something unreasonable.
You can find that too, if you care to look at Tsubaki and Urabe's relationship as one relayed in stages, not that it was a moment to moment retelling by traditional methods of linear storytelling. There's the getting to know you phase, before other people know about the two to after having the secret relationship discovered by others, encountering and moving past challenges (or perceived challenges) to the relationship from others outside it, a before encountering family stage to becoming accepted as part of the family of your partner. From first meet to deciding to spend lives together, there is that basic meta story, which doesn't interfere with the manga's theme to consistently explore sexy relationship moments, as opposed to detailing lurid acts of singular, sequential relationship interactions.
>>143610641
Sorry anon, I must decline. I don't know you.
I'm surprised this wasn't more popular.
>>143614972
Perhaps they're going to stretch it out every few years so that it doesn't run short of material. Or could be that it's already popular, so doesn't need the extra attention of another anime.
>>143616999
I wonder if they ever finishe translating the manga. I have like the first 50 chapters or so but it was very slow going and I stopped caring.
Best anime during it's season.
>>143619098
Heavily agreed.
>>143614972
D-frag was amazing,Funi really out did themselves with the voice work on this one.

what or how would you describe what we got on friday?
>>143620133
...
>>143602878
I need to see that again.
It does not need another season, though, what's out there is misinterpreted enough as it is.
>>143614961
I thought i was the only one that remembered this, i had no idea it sold poorly. i guess i'll have to read the manga or somein.
>>143603381
Just finished watching this. I wouldn't mind a second season, but I wouldn't be disappointed if there wasn't
>>143610095
No one give watamote anime a second chance everyone review watamote back in 2013 are pussy or lying.
I'll show you a new review for watamote some one made.
Watamote, is sad and cringy. The story follows Tomoko and her escapades to become popular and overcome anxiety. Antics ensue. As a character, Tomoko is somewhat likeable, as you can't help but hope that she succeeds in her endeavors, but the ways she gets herself into situations almost makes her deserve it.
The art is good. I especially like the exaggerated lighting and character redesigns during the daydream sequences.
The sound is good. The ending songs and the songs near the end are really awesome. Though, the opening can get some getting used to, as it doesn't really fit the tone of the show. The soundtrack isn't really noticable unless its the highlight of a certain scene, but its adequate. I can't really preach for the voice acting, since I watched the sub.
My enjoyment of this was great!
Overall, Watamote is a sad story told in a comedic way, and it has really good comedy (why wouldn't it, its a comedy show). There are some touching moments. But, not everyone will like this show. There are some serious cringy moments, and if you haven't watched a lot of anime then some references will go over your head. I personally cringed as much as I laughed, however, not everyone will do the same. If you don't like the first episode, then don't watch as the others are basically along the same lines. Happy anime watching!
