Well, it's just the beginning. Everyone knows that the beginning is kind weak. I think even Gainax know that that the part serious is there in front. We bet on it. Things should improve a lot there. The anime is going very well .

Well, it's Shonen Jump after all. At least is slightly above other any anime. It's that what give me hope. I think a Second Season was the least they could do. The fact medaka box is the jump is a real trump. At least the anime should last a little longer for it.

Tbh most shonen jump adaptions start slow whilst following the manga.. Look at hitman reborn which took 20 episodes to get good and many people I remember dropping it before then

BTW I think that they shouldn't change one thing from manga.
So anime vs manga: Spoiler for anime:
Spoiler for manga:
An don't forget that he said something like "my body and soul are all Medaka's" which in this situation more suits to what happened in manga. |

Hmm ... well, on some other poster's advice I decided to give the manga a try and read up through volume 4. And yes - the story does take quite a different turn than is evident at the beginning of the manga/anime. In retrospect I also wonder how (and what?) they are gonna cram everything into 12/13 eps?
In any event having read that far I still don't think it is really my cup of tea - at least not enough to actively follow on a week-by-week basis - but I was pleased that there was a lot more going on to the story than first seemed at the end of ep 1 of the anime....

To be honest, I wasn't really feeling this show, but I cracked up at Medaka's "Welcome, Armed Insurrection" party. Maybe I'll just take a little break and watch the next few episodes all at once.

Medaka's cracked up unconditional love for people is one of the great things about her, once you can actually convince yourself that she's sincere. I had issues with early-series Medaka because her exaggerated "humans are fundamentally good" perspective lead her to make up (and believe in) tragic backstories for any flawed person she saw doing something negative (like the delinquents in ep. 1). In the beginning you can rightfully call Medaka's "love" for people absurd and shallow. However, as the series proceeds there are more dimensions added to it which is combined with development for Medaka herself, so that ultimately I think what you come out with is an extremely likeable and inspirational character. In essence, a great part of my enjoyment of Medaka comes from how I've watched her growing/changing and turning around. That is to say: for certain, at the start, Medaka is not a perfect or completely likeable character (far from it, really). However, for her own part, Medaka does have her particular points of charm.

So... that preorder chart... is it based on total pre-order or how many pre-order per day?
Cause they're quite different (you can really tell how popular a series is by "per day"... since most ppls don't pre-order until like at last episode) BTW... why are you guys all complaining about things? Just go fantasize about Medaka's "perfectly toned body". PS: Complains is still on-line with the manga complains, LOL, this is so fun to watch. |
