Heck most series get a pre-anime bump due to the magazine hyping things up and than they get another bump after the anime, Medaka Box had neither. |

I don't think as many people cared about the series pre-kumagawa, and the first anime season must've been enough to drive people away. If anything, this is a testament to how poorly conceived the first season was, which we already knew. Last edited by Kurosu; 2013-04-04 at 01:34. |

It's not that I hate this season. I hate the fact that they really stretched the material for the first season. Look at Btoom! - they managed to adapt 31 weekly and 19 monthly chapters in 12 episodes! (though they cut some stuff but not a lot). Some stuff was also cut in the second season of anime version but the 1st one was... too slow IMO.

Then I guess I'm in the minority on that. Certainly the definitive trope exploring didn't come about in full force until Kumagawa, but I think the themes were put in place well enough to offer a contrast. Medaka's always been a nearly unstoppable force whether defined as an abnormal or not, but I think important themes of success being predetermined were established.
Without that contrast, I don't the transition would be as eye-opening. |
