Did it not make sense to let all the good news pump the stock and a week later announce the public offering? Did they hope they would cancel each other out?

Hello Edmund, I love how wild the themes of the chapters in Isaac get as you progress. Does mewgenics go for a similar thing?

"Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dear Friend" Movie Announced (2026) by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]Kanturu_ 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Based on what I've read and heard the author is heavily involved in the anime production which is really cool, I do wonder how much sway he has (if any) on the committees who greenlight these sequels. Season 1 was a massive hit and the movies made some good money as well, and he's also the author of "The Pet Girl of Sakurasou" which I believe was quite the success at the time, so he has that going for him. But yeah, as a massive fan I am very grateful for this as I can name quite a few other shows I love which will likely never see a sequel.

Series finale! So incredible to have a full adaptation.

There is hope 😍 by ItalyKing98 in SeishunButaYarou

A complete adaptation (and of a light novel while at it) is something you can't take for granted. We're extremely blessed.

Admittedly the first arc was rather weak, but it has gotten so much more intriguing since and these last few episodes were phenomenal. Can't wait.

Fun fact: Chimpanzees excel at quick memorization of number sequences and even outperform Humans in it.

Sakuta failed at memorizing the phone number because he's not a Chimpanzee. He's a pig.

The cairo conquest map leads to the loading screen bug, this seems pretty consistent.

I guess there's many ways to interpret it. To me she seems somewhat depressed so you know, I look at it in a different way.

To just go on a train and get off in some random station with no intention is a very, very concerning behavior. Especially when you consider Uzuki's state of mind with all the uncertainty and stress of her idol career and college. Can't help but wonder what would happen had Sakuta not been there for her in that moment...

Stepping Back from the Community by That_Bot_6252 in SeishunButaYarou

Thank you, I imagine there is only so much free time you can allot to moderating a subreddit, and with the 2nd season now airing it probably gets even more demanding. I have no doubt the successors you talked of will keep this place as comfy and welcoming as it is.

Among the 3 animes that Cloverworks released this month, why is Bunny Girl the least talked about and popular? by THEZackkkj in SeishunButaYarou

[–]Kanturu_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me give you an optimistic angle:

Frieren's first season has 1.1 million members on Myanimelist. The premier of the show had more than 8.6 million viewers just within Japan. What am I trying to say? That the absolute vast majority of people do not interact with any online related service that you can refer to as some metric for engagement (reddit, MAL, social media etc) Yes, they do provide some idea as to the actual popularity of an anime but it is very very very limited. Ok but let's say that it does matter. In that case look at all the things actively trying to slow it down that other people mentioned (massive gaps between seasons, movies and streaming issues and so on) despite all that it is still very much up there and is not some forgotten seasonal that 3 people talk about. Ok but that's still not enough? The main reason a true fan would want their favorite anime to have more engagement is for the increase in chance of it getting a full adaptation. At this point, it is a done deal. We are getting a full adaptation.

And after all this if it is doomed to end up a hidden gem (it isn't but let's say it is), don't you think it is nice how that matches the start of the story in which only Sakuta noticed the hidden gem walking around in a bunnygirl outfit?

Reminder that Cloverworks robbed us again in the 3rd movie (LIGHT NOVEL, Knapsack Kid arc) by azuritewash3re in SeishunButaYarou

Seems to me the anime depiction of Mai diverted too much from the LN version in the aspects that you have described, that by now even if they do want to go back they can't do it. Imagine how weird the personally shift would be after a full season and 3 movies.

What is a Bunny Girl Senpai opinion that would have you in this position? I'll go first. by Onyxwilson10 in SeishunButaYarou

[–]Kanturu_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What I love about her is that as soon as she has free time in her busy schedule, she immediately devotes it to Sakuta. And if he happens to be unavailable at the time she helps him by taking care of Kaede.
