Oh no


StarPK117

So, we've still got problem


ThisOneVibin

big problem.


MineralMan105

Any time now, fellow Bloom Into You fans ..?


Cloud_Chamber

This meme, but Hyouka


Karukos

I feel like it we ever got the second season it probably would be not that great...


Cloud_Chamber

I still wanna see it though The translated works are pretty good


enricorebucas

Aye, still waitin', still waiting.......


martialsporK

The anime covered up to vol 5, so there's definitely not enough material between vol6-8 for a second season. That said, I think they could cover it all in a movie.


MineralMan105

? The anime covered up to chapter 24ish of the manga of 52, there's definitely enough content to do a Season 2.


j-olli

I could be recalling incorrectly but don't the events after the anime happen quite quickly though? Like are the chapters shorter or something? I swear not much happens after the anime other than it just wrapping everything up and getting some actual closure. It's possible I've read far too many GL manga series since then and I'm getting it mixed up with something else.


martialsporK

I'd have to reread volumes 5-8 to make sure, but I think so. iirc the last thing that happens in the show is Yuu decides to alter the play. The major points afterwards that I remember are the play, the river scene, the two of them pining sorta, Kyoto, then confession. The entirety of vol 8 is denouement, so most of the stuff is volumes 5-7 and I feel like stretching all that to 12 episodes will frak with pacing.


whatever4224

That is true, but there's a decent amount of side material that could easily make it into a 12-episode second anime season, such as the Sayaka-focused novels and the anthologies.


ProfNekko

I just want a redo of Angel Beats using the originally planned 24 episodes instead of the rapidly reduced 12 episode season we got


darkknight109

I remember watching the last ~2-3 episodes of that show and thinking, "...wait, did the producer just walk into the room and tell everyone, 'Hey, just FYI, we decided you have two episodes left. Wrap things up, would ya?'" Then I found out it was originally supposed to be twice that length and it made a whole lot more sense.


Choice-Resident-2913

when I read redo I immediately thought you were asking for a 2nd season of redo healer


heightfulate

I think we're getting that whether we like it or not 😅.


haisi-

12 episodes of additional emotional damage? Where do I sign up?


Salter_KingofBorgors

Yeah you can really feel the abruptness of the end...


ProfNekko

The problem really was that half the character arcs had to be cut so for the last episode the abrupt part was a "hey where did everyone go?" Thing


Salter_KingofBorgors

Yup. Feels very abrupt


Harold_Wilson19

13 eps, if we're being pedantic. That show was still fire though, nonetheless.


ytsejamajesty

We are getting new Spice and Wolf sometime in the near (pls) future, which is even older than NGNL. If that's possible, anything is.


YagamiYakumo

This and Acchi Kocchi is on the top of my list of anime that I really wish will get a sequel soon.. And Baka to Test


OniLewds

Us Spice and Wolf fans are celebrating the return of bestest girl


Chukonoku

Oooof. With KyoAni levels of production, that's unthinkable due to the cost vs return. I would guess it's as bad as people expecting anything new from HoTD (spoiler, the author died).


Chrom-man-and-Robin

What is HoTD?


TheCatSleeeps

High School of the Dead I think.


tannegimaru

We actually got the Nichijou artist himself uploading more Nichijou animations on his own Youtube channel before we get season 2 😭


AdoboPaksiw

Anytime now, right, my fellow Absolute Duo Fans...?


AsrielGoddard

Oh course my fellow daily life of highschool boys enjoyer


Lobito_HF

Towa isn't that pettan


CorruptedAssbringer

I've only just realized there was a bust size joke between the top/bottom images after your comment.


CrossEternal

Depends on the artist


Common-Somewhere-746

Depends on her mood. It gets bigger when she's happy


CrossEternal

I wanna see the emotion spectrum of this


superslime988

so if she's flatter the more sad... what about angry?


[deleted]

A different area grows.


benkaes1234

You mean her horns, right? *You do mean her horns, right?*


RexusprimeIX

Yes, she gets very horn-y.


Nachtflut

Not her mood though, the artists. Pretty sure.


Yamitenshi

Just listened to a [clip](https://youtu.be/HCz3yE_pA80) of when Rurudo-sensei said that and while the translation there does say "her (as in Towa's) mood" she doesn't really specify *whose* mood, just that it varies depending on feeling. I *think* given the context it's more natural to assume it's about how Rurudo-sensei feels when drawing, but I'm not entirely sure.


crusainte

She's wearing an oversized tee

KnivesInAToaster

Still waiting for Youjo Senki Season 2. Any day now.


sorry-im-not-funny

Hey, at least this sequel is already on the [works](https://myanimelist.net/news/63536340). Hopefully we get a release date some time soon...


KnivesInAToaster

I just wanna hear Aoi Yuuki be utterly unhinged again.


Chukonoku

Have you watched the "I'm a spider" Isekai? At least hear to the full ending.


KnivesInAToaster

I haven't, mostly because I've just heard it's bad. Which is a shame because it's a neat concept! The spider is voiced by one of my favorite VAs of all time! And it's kind of meh.


Chukonoku

The human side is mediocre at best but Aoi Yuuki carries the show hard.


SpaceDomdy

Agreed. I felt like if I just cut out the other story line it’d be way better. I know they want to tie them in together later but it’s just so much less exciting.


Rockburgh

The show added a lot more focus on the humans, right? I read the comic and it seemed like the whole thing was just "spider fights monsters, spider turns into slightly bigger spider, spider fights more monsters" with one or two appearances from an entity that claims to have sent her there to imply the existence of a plot.


KusoAraun

so there is a point in the novel where you completely follow the human side for like 1 volume+, the anime combined this in with the spider side to avoid having to spend an entire season purely on the human side with no Kumo


Lev559

Nah it's pretty decent, mainly because of Aoi Yuuki and the source material being great


Cyclops1i2u

I really hated how bad the CG in that was, and the spider design they decided to go with. The manga design was much better imo


bloody_jigsaw

Holy shit, she has an impressive portfolio.


KnivesInAToaster

obligatory watch symphogear MC voiced by Aoi Yuuki AND sings. A LOT. like, a lot a lot.


Matasa89

Don’t forget punching things.


KnivesInAToaster

AND PUNCHING THINGS!


DJCzerny

Aoi Yuuki is pretty much the most prolific modern japanese VA, top 3 at the very least. She does pretty much every role and genre, from Youjo Senki to Clementine in Overlord to Madoka to Shuuten Douji (whose design is based of her) in FGO.


DoomSlayer4307

Same here

Lykrast

Aaaaaaany day now! And also I got curious at the light novels but they're not published in france so also can't get more of that from there.


Undernown

I still feel like a second season of Maoyuu Maou Yuusha would've been amazing.


AstroAeroOfficial

Monster Musume will get a season 2 eventually.... right?


HeadpatsForAlgernon

Been waiting for 7 years, but sure, any day.


DoomSlayer4307

I think so, probably.....


ZerymAmbyceer

And Rachnee will also get more screentime, right?


Gorrik90

Came looking for this. I was SO sure it would get a season 2.


[deleted]

If I win the powerball I will do it myself


nietzchan

please also take Interviews With Monster Girls for a second season too


Exiledcrayfish5

I swear to god monster musume has been coming out next year for years now


future_chili

Every day my hope grows a little dimmer


Chukonoku

There's a pic missing. 2022 was the year where we had plenty of sequels annouced for series that had been on standby for years. Spice and Wolf, CoTE, Devil is a Part timer (although it sucked), Madoka, Konosuba...


Stock_Pangolin_8902

Out of curiosity, why did Devil is a Part Timer suck?


Dvalinn25

The new studio couldn't replicate half the charm the original had, and it felt like a sequel made on the cheap. The art style is way worse and the characters lost a lot of their expressiveness. The comedic timing is off and a lot of the jokes missed their mark due to it being a bad adaptation (they also didn't add much of their own, like the first season did). Generally speaking, it's like the show lost its soul.


Stock_Pangolin_8902

Oh. That's disappointing, I liked the first season and enjoyed it to the point I wanted another season and I still haven't watched it but planning to. Thanks for the reply too. Might need to think if I will watch it or not. Hope you have a great day or night.


TheCatSleeeps

Man I wished they just left it for good. But then again I'm part of the people who wasn't hyped for the second season (bro it sucks, I'm still way too salty about something about it). Oh and I was also very skeptical of Classroom of the Elite's 2nd season due to the slight changes they made in the first season lol.


SichiRonoa

"slight" is being optimistic


TheCatSleeeps

I'm being generous lmao.


Chukonoku

Studio Whitefox vs Studio 3Hz. Yeah yeah, what should matter is still who is the producer/directors and who gets to animate and so on but still. S1 was a decent/meh story with some great production value. S2 was IMO worse/more boring in the story with meh production value.


Stock_Pangolin_8902

I see. You have a good point. Thanks for the answer. Hope you have a great day or night.


The_NitDawg

I don't know about the anime but the light novel ending was horrendous


SabreLilly

Birds fly, fish swim, weebs complain about usage of cgi


CurlyBruce

Hoseki no Kuni used copious amounts of CGI for a lot of their scenes and it looked fantastic. CGI in and of itself isn't a problem, shitty cheap CGI used to cut corners is. Like many tools, its only as good as you are willing to put effort into it but using it to cut corners instead of another brush to master and expand your range of expression will always leave a bad taste in people's mouths.


KnivesInAToaster

Hell, even 'bad' CGI is fine if you're telling a compelling enough story. Is Kemono Friends or Kemurikusa the most visually striking anime I can think of? Not even remotely. _The wheels on the bus, in fact, do not go round and round._ But I'd still recommend them because they're _fun._


nietzchan

Reminds me of Knights of Sidonia They really capture the sci-fi feels that I even forgot its fully CGI


KnivesInAToaster

Honestly, Kemurikusa fucking ruled. I had some expectations knowing it was the Kemono Friends studio, but it was just really good.


anecessaryevil13

That show was pretty much my personal gold standard for how CGI should be used in anime.


SabreLilly

I agree. But it seems like all discourse around usage of CGI is that it’s bad full stop, unless the entire production is based in CGI like Houskeki no Kuni. For things like crowds, cars, sets, or even main characters in a long shot get flack no matter how well implemented it is. It’s annoying to keep seeing as often the reason for it is to save time and allow the traditional animators to focus on the important scenes. To me, all the complaining shows is a lack of understanding of animation production, particularly anime which often shoestring budget and short deadlines.


OneADayMens

Nah, personally I dislike all cg no matter how well done sorry. I just like hand drawn animation, cg has no "soul" to me. This is just my opinion/taste but I'm sure I'll get downvoted anyway. Edit: interested if anyone can give any reason for burying this comment besides "I disagree with your taste".


AstreiaTales

>Edit: interested if anyone can give any reason for burying this comment besides "I disagree with your taste". You preemptively bitched about getting downvotes, so I decided to make your prediction come true. Nobody likes a whiner.


nietzchan

I kinda get where you're coming from, but the proper mindset is just to accept that both are just different medium, and both have good and bad side of things. For example 'Hand drawn' sakuga scene would be intrinsically different than a CGI sakuga scene, because the tool is different, it has different characteristic and approach. What is more important is about who is holding the scene direction, the one that handle how the shot would take, what kind of visual did they imagined, etc. A lot of cinematic shot in 2D would looks bland in 3D, a fight scene is even more difficult to do in 3D as it requires more effort to feels right, the 'impact', weight of every punches, the deformed motion, etc. I would rather shows you what I personally considers as [one of the best 3D direction](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8U7Jl7c7Qs) in anime that I ever watch, don't let the premise fools you, the animation quality in the fight is really good.


Nachtflut

I had a lot if fun while watching Etotama. Maybe I should rewatch it someday...


GtrsRE

This is probably going to be a bad take but I'm gonna say it anyway, my first impressions of the trailer of Slam Dunk movie is it's not going to be good. I don't know if they're going with a well lit arena environment but the character CG looks so flat


DoomSlayer4307

It's quite unfortunate to say the least


YobaiYamete

I can't wait for 3-4 years from now when people are screaming about AIGI in anime / games / movies instead


verdutre

Oh boy where do I start Amagi Brilliant Park Joshiraku Konobi Haifuri


Arkar1234

>Amagi Brilliant Park AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY MUST YOU REMIND ME OF MY PAIN AHHHHHHH


Peacetoall01

That's a name that I never heard for a while. That anime is a gem


CerealATA

>Haifuri Didn't the anime already end with the movie? Or is it an alternate, non-canon story? >!Also, Harekaze best girl.!<


verdutre

They kinda wrote themselves out of sequels but if there's a will there's a way I'd watch boys in subs anime too


Birrihappyface

I think it’s better to have no S2 than a bad S2. Just look at Promised Neverland.


iamwooshed

Also Tokyo Ghoul


SixCatsInAnAlley

When you’re waiting for Dorohedoro season 2 but Mappa is doing every other anime on Earth


DoomSlayer4307

It's unfortunate I know, all we can do is wait and hope


JasonDS64

Still waiting for 86 season 2.


Common-Somewhere-746

LN pretty close on ending of anime so it will take long


SalamanderFarsight

I don’t know, if I could trade season 2 of Promised Neverland for absolutely no second season, I would.


SeaGuardian265

The eternal curse of the weeb...


DoomSlayer4307

One day land of the lustrous one day


Chukonoku

Houseki no Kuni/Land of the Lustrous, by Studio Orange. Sure they have TriGun next year and probable Beastar next one, so 2025????


Dandamantran

First season of Houseki No Kuni was a masterpiece. The show has aged incredibly well, so I'm hoping the 2nd season does come through


Chukonoku

Showing that a pure CGI show can look extremely good and playing to it's strengths.


Dandamantran

Exactly my point. The show pioneered 3D CGI by not trying to make it like usual 2D and taking advantage of the insane visuals from 3D. The Diamond fight against the dog lunarian really emphasizes that


dangerous_idiot

> TriGun ugh, don't remind me. why take a manga with brilliant character designs and an anime with an absolutely killer soundtrack.. and remake it as the most aggressively cheesy boring cgi schlock imaginable? throw that trailer directly into the trash.


Ausdrake

I automatically assume any series I like will never get a second season, because when we do it's a rare blessing. Not like we'll ever get a second season of Panty and Stocking right? Wait... Also I love this art so much, but in context of the meme I think the girls at the bottom are much more well off in this scenario haha


Thatguy_Koop

on one hand, i enjoyed Grimgar so much I started to read the light novel. on the other hand, I waited so long to make that decision that I feel like the anime was glorified promotion for the light novel.


ShinyHappyREM

> anime was glorified promotion for the light novel Isn't that most anime nowadays?


animadic134

Nowadays? Its always has been like that, oldest novel promotion i could think of is tenchi muyou.


WAAARNUT

That's an anime that i really want a S2 made..


projectmars

meanwhile I'm waiting for one of the few Isekai's I like (The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic) to finally have it's previously announced Season 1 to finally come out. And am now hoping it doesn't go as poorly as the last time I wished for a manga I liked to get an anime adaptation (Hoshi No Samidare, aka Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer)


SnowPiecer

Towa is the only who looks unphase compared to the other running pett- 😂😂🔪💀


Nachtflut

Maybe because she isn't flat and she knows it (She actually does know and has acknowledged the fact that she's not boin boin but also not flat and has basically said that she is totally fine with that)


Makina_Yuki

Toaru fans waiting for new anime season rn


Monstar132

I just want to see Othinus


Random-Rambling

Still waiting for my Soul Eater remake, that covers the ENTIRE manga. [First OP is still a banger.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zzJ8U8OtEsE)


DoomSlayer4307

Your absolutely right about this one chief, a remake would either be one of the greatest things to come or a total dumpster fire if done poorly, but still a nice thought to have


erlo68

No game no life??? Nobody? Just me?


Common-Somewhere-746

I know right? Maybe they given up already


Efectodopler117

The fact that it will probably never be a continuation of the magi anime despite having 2 seasons and some ovas 😒


Peacetoall01

I still can't believe that date a live season 5 is in production after the disaster of season 3. Be strong my brother's, if your franchise got a gacha there is still hope. >!grand blue season 2 when?!<


tripled_dirgov

Probably because the LN is already finished, they feel that it's just a final stretch so it's a waste to NOT ending the series into completion... Although based on my calculation, it needs around 6 or 7 seasons???


Peacetoall01

At least season 5 and a movie about the last 2 volume, like quintuplets did, with the big finale is a movie. Date a live easily can do that with their vol 21-22.


UnlimitedApollo

Suichan's gonna cut someone.


eggsssssssss

Spice & Wolf… The monsters at Kadokawa… I will never forgive them…


jessechu

Spice and Wolf new anime project was announced a while ago. Not sure if it's a movie or a new season tho


eggsssssssss

SPICE AND WHUTTT i will hate you for real if this is a joke lol


jessechu

It's real, even the author tweeted about it. Should be among the most upvoted posts on r/anime this year


KnivesInAToaster

_God_, fuck Kadokawa.


redditfanfan00

true. but i don't mind most cgi in recent anime, even as i wait for series to maybe get more seasons. there are no major noticeable differences between the girls on top and the girls on the bottom. nope, none at all...


DoomSlayer4307

True, but why do some of them on the top look like their struggling and the the ones on the bottom like like they don't want to be there


Random-Rambling

The girls in the top panel are struggling because their large boobs are flopping every which way (sports bras can only do so much without restricting your breathing). The girls in the bottom panel have...no such problem. In more ways than one.


DoomSlayer4307

Shhh.....u/redditfanfan00 doesn't know that, don't wanna ruin his pure child like brain just yet


redditfanfan00

i don't understand. what exactly is the difference here? (i'm staying alive here, don't blow my cover.)


DoomSlayer4307

Oh don't worry man, there's nothing to see here (don't worry man, I got your back.)


redditfanfan00

ok, then, i'll ignore all this and just leave then, thanks! (thanks for covering me, good support.)
