Supposedly, Amazon pre-order rankings have been okay, so Usagi Drop may have a better chance of continuation than most noitaminA shows. |

Finally manage to box through the last few episodes. I can only score it a six out of then. It was better than average, mainly because of the watercolour scene at the beginning of each episodes. Story-wise not a bit fan, start off interesting, but fade into blandness, i even fell at sleep in some episodes. I have to say a lot of hyped series is season were completely let downs.
Would i recommend it to people, yes i your life is so exciting that you need something to remind you that other people have boring lifes. Definitely not a series for everyone. |

If they make a season 2 with the newer manga material, I'll watch it. It's possible that it will work out fine, despite what other people say about it. Wouldn't be the first time I went against popular opinion (either in terms of what show to pick or what I liked about hyped shows).

I'm not going to be original here, but this was one of the cutest anime I've ever seen. And I mean that in a very realistic sense. My only concern now is if I should go on with the manga, but considering what I've heard, I'm apprehensive, to say the least.

site? reference? data support? We discussed this a few pages ago -- the whole market is sagging somewhat and I haven't seen any *cumulative* sales figures computed, only the weekly numbers from the sales thread and they look pretty reasonable for a niche anime.

Just watched the Christmas special, and I can't say enough how much I love this show. Those 5 mins were not enough I tell you!
That being said, I had a smile on my face the entire time. So many memories from my childhood, and watching Daikichi's "struggles" as well were hilarious. This show is of the purest gold possible. |

A second season would have a much more .... sophisticated? tone rather than the cheery innocence of this season. It would make for a pretty good drama I think... but it wouldn't be the gumdrop goodness atmosphere of this season.

I agree as well....a 2nd season of Usagi Drop...seeing Rin & Dakachi
a decade later would have a more dramatic/soap opera tone since most of the charactures are adults with adult issues. The second half of Usagi Drop manga kinda reminds me of that manga which they animated of Suzuka. They only animated the first 1/2-2/3's of the manga because of the mature content of the later portion of the manga. VC |

The ep 8.5 special came out a little while ago, which is also quite nice....
Especially liked the scene where Kouki's mom shows "extra attention" to Rin and Daikuchi shows the same to Kouki - very touching, somehow.
