There's a reason why Medaka is a Mary Sue and Zenkichi is normal. The series is one big parody of shounen, though it gets really over the top when it becomes a battle manga.
This is a Nisio series. You don't take it as face value. More than likely if it's generic, he's doing it on purpose to make a meta joke. People find his jokes to be clever. |

To be fair, while I haven't read the manga too much, it really strikes me as a very weak premise and beginning. I say this while having loved both Bakemonogatari and Katangatari.
The overly protective attitude of this thread is a bit jarring to say the least.

The quality of the manga itself doesn't give me much hope that this will turn out particularly well in the category of 'overall series quality'. It's like Transformers, I'll likely watch it for the action.

^ Wow. So fast.
Anyway, let's get away from showing off 'Superiority' and 'analyzing the taste' kind of useless discussion, right? It's not helping the thread, really. Hope for more discussion about actual animation. -- Anyway, 2ch people are talking more about JC Staff than Gainax for potential studio. I wonder why.

It is already common thing for NisiOisiN fans anyway. Zaregoto series, anyone? No-one really protected anything. It's just our usual NisiOisiN, what do you expect? Quote:

Zenkichi/Hiroshi Kamiya Shiranui/Emiri Katou Looking @ the Medaka VOMIC website a couple more characters were given voices. http://vomic.shueisha.co.jp/medakabox/ I'm curious to see whoever they cast for Kumagawa.. even if he only gets the final scene or a JUMP FIESTA or whatever OVA next year. |

Bluntly, the major three features of Medaka Box is psychopath characters + ridiculous abilities and battle + crazy dialog and word play.

i really like the manga, but i gotta say the manga gets really interesting adter the first couple of arcs, and like almost everyone point out , things gets really good after certain character appears, i really am expecting this anime, the only thing is that i consider gainax dont have a middle ground , its either really good or really bad, so here i am hoping for the best.

Looks like the Gainax rumor was false? I mean it's now official that Hiroyuki Imaishi (and others) has left Gainax to start up a new company and he was the name attached to the Gainax rumor. There is a Medaka Box color page coming out with this weeks edition of WSJ (3rd in 6 weeks) so maybe they'll announce the studio/director/cast with that color page.
