Of course, I could be completely wrong, or the site simply inaccurate, but there's always wishful thinking ^-^

And yes, Yotsubato! is, as ADV would put it, Awesomely McAwesome.
GYAAAAA!

I'm not sure there's enough Yotsuba manga currently out there to make an anime from. I think they should wait a year or two for it to either end or get way ahead before they make an anime from it, so they don't end up putting pointless fillers in it.

I need more Yotsuba to! T.T

This is the most laugh-inducing manga I've read in a long, long time. So refreshing. And yes, it's nice to see a manga about a bunch of cute girls and not have them land in a bunch of sexual positions every 5 pages. XD

Haha, glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

After reading yotsubato I'm not sure if I want to have kids anymore

[AnimeFangirl]

My brother said the exact opposite! He said after reading Yotsubato! he couldn't wait to have a little girl of his own, I was like wtf...slow down bro! *shakes head* Boys! =_=

You have to remember... Yatsuba was adopted. Once he's eighteen its possible, however slight the odds, that he can adopt a kid that's somewhat the same.

I, personally, would like a daughter. Remembering some... most... all the stupid things I did that can be explained by either the "boys will be boys" mentality or rampant amounts of testosterone, I'm personally afraid of what I'd teach my son if I ever had one. -.-;

Next to it it says "噂", which means "Rumor".

We can only pray

An anime, with only 16 chapters of the manga out? I doubt it.

Would be nice, though.

Not really all that impossible...

Once all the characters are introduced, there's only ten at most and seven of them could be introduced in the first episode alone, it would be easy to make a simple 13 episode series out of it. It doesn't need any real plot, since 99% of the manga is somewhat random and the character development is pretty low key right now. It would basically be a series of single episode adventures much like what the manga is now.

Although if they do it, I want to see Yatsuba and Revenge.

An anime would be great. XD

Just wanna hear Yotsuba-chan yell out "Donmai! Donmai!" <3

I am in favor of letting the manga run awhile - the last few chapters I read seemed to work on the characters a bit. One thing Azumanga Daioh has going for it is the way it develops the characters in the quieter scenes.

I also think that given enough material, the money would be there for a longer series, because the adaptation of Azumanga Daioh did so well.

[Mr_Paper]

Truthfully, I'd like to see the manga run a bit longer before a television adaptation is created. As interesting as it would be, I think a series who's sole purpose is to be filler would get boring really fast and ultimately hurt the series rather than help it.

I was just stating that given the state of the manga now a simple television adaptation is still possible.

[bluemist]

I can't help but thinking Yotsuba's gonna sound like Chiyo-chan if ever it gets animated...

[Kyuven]

nah, yotsuba would sound a bit different that chiyo
not much, but it'd exist
Kiyohiko Azuma's (creator of Yotsubato and Azumanga Daioh) works are easily adaptable to anime format...with the right director
the difference with Azumanga and Yotsubato is that Azumanga was a 4 panel daily comic and Yotsubato is a pages-long "standard" manga (monthly i think)

[luckme10]

how can you not love this face?

[Bandersnatch]

Heres a scene from a future episode in which Yotsuba has a nightmare where she is in the world of Berserk, she wakes up traumatized for life.

Spoiler:

Yea...I got kinda bored.

WHOA! Both pics are funny stuff!
