@ Kaioshin, I'm aware of Munto's roots, note that I referred to it in both names in my post. That doesn't change my point that "we got a action series".
On a unrelated amusing note, I wonder if there was anyone so damn blind to not notice the obvious "hints" in it. *coughanimationcough* Unfortunetly that's a another "problem". Is there a light novel or popular manga with that context? Well then they would have to create a "original" story, which I would say is a pretty bad idea...

Hm, you might be right. The only reason I can think of is that it doesn't fit their style. I don't mean the show formula here, but rather the show style and choreography. Some manga for example are very "static" as far as the motion you can see in the panels go. I once heard KyoAni is a kind of "do it for the love of it" studio; assuming that hearsay holds any water it may be they are just not into those kind of shows. You also have to consider that there's probably a lot more to it then it seems -- why haven't other studios picked them up if they are so great? (rhetorical)
Now on the bright side, I'm not sure you can say there's no chance right now for them to pick those shows either. I'm (kind of) expecting Nichijou to be... um, different (to some extent) and thereby break the ice and bad gossip that surrounds the studio. If that happens they should be able to move easier to "other" kind of shows as it were. True, it's not exactly a action anime as you want, but it doesn't sound like it's a otaku anime, or a normal school life anime either. (please correct me if I'm wrong)

well obviously is because studio has yet to seen it or they dont have time to animate it. there are thousand of thousand of LN, VN and manga out there. and about everyday they make new one. literally there is no limit. it simply matter of time that they make anime of it (if they good and worth it) any way Nichijou is... um, different (to some extent) type of slice of life. which probably is make much more sense if they been animate by shaft consider they style (doesn't mean other studio cannot do) but either yes it is less generic compare k on. but still not that quite different (it still all girl group talking about everyday life) they must make great change between generic slice of life to "unussual" slice of life. they make haruhi before why not know. so far they 2011 line up is slice of life (k-on movie, Nichijou) which make me think if they continue they tradition as generic slice of life maker and not making serious anime again

As I said earlier, don't worry too much about this. Give KyoAni time and they will most likely put out the more "serious" anime that the vocal minority demands. Given KyoAni's previous track record and how they tend to focus on certain types of series at a time, we can't judge them at the moment. As for more "serious" anime, there are a total of 4(!) Noitamina series airing in the upcoming winter and spring seasons so you'll get a good share of that.

^ i know, consider they work cycle there is high chance that they animate little buster at 2012.
but still this year probably first time where they focus slice of life for a whole year really (there is little chance they will announced another title for 2011). i just simply afraid that they simply continue making these consider cash cow franchise.

Indeed though, poor Munto. As I mentioned it was something of a disaster. Acknowledged. Last edited by Kaioshin Sama; 2010-12-31 at 23:39. |

Do you know Ashita no Nadja, a show produced by Toei and considered a failure? From what I heard, its sale was as much as that of Haruhi. What a limited market the otaku market is. (I don't know when the numbers of them were compared. Maybe before Haruhi 2009?)

Ashita no Nadja
That anime was, what? 2003-04 and 50 episodes. Though it did share a first and second place in Saimoe 2004. Though honestly 2003-04 seems like a slow period for anime. A lull. Not very well known outside Japan from what I can tell. (at least in English speaking countries)

OK, I have a few questions that have come to mind:
1. When K-On starts to come out in North America on DVD in April(grr Bandai doing 4 episodes per disc), does anyone think this could be the KyoAni anime that makes it onto something like Adult Swim and makes the studio a household name in America? 2. We now know the K-On movie is slated for December. How soon do you think we'll get an idea of the studio's plans for 2012? |

Kyoto Animation seems to go back and forth on just how forthcoming on details about their next animation series. We know of one coming in March (OVA) and April (series): Nichijou. And we know the K-On movie will be out in December with one more episode of the second season to come out this March on the last DVD for that series. We also know the manga writer will be continuing K-On starting in the spring (we don't have details yet about what it will be about yet I guess.)
So we have no real idea what Kyoto Animation will do after Nichijou ends and before the K-On movie...much less 2012. We know Haruhi has more material to animate and they left a teasing thread for more in the movie last year. Full Metal Panic's novels are complete now if I understand correctly, meaning they can finally pick that series back up should they decide to do so. It is unclear if Kyoto and Key will work together again post-CLANNAD with others having worked on Angel Beats. No clue if they have any need or desire to return to Lucky Star. With K-On's source material continuing, they could animate that when it gets enough stories to host a 13 - 26 episode series again. That seems to be a profitable idea since they can make money on not only the DVD sales, but also music sales. So they could go in almost any direction come 2012.

Jocking aside, a harem spin-off would just soil the characters; so most of the fans would likely be against it.

That said, I wouldn't mind if PAWorks ended up doing the adaptation since they seem to be a good studio. |

That said, I don't think Kyoto would do a harem spin-off of K-On! because I don't think harem antics are what the fanbase wants from the show, and I'm pretty sure they've come to the same conclusion - there really isn't a precedent for a harem show having K-On!like levels of success. As for the "is Angel Beats by Key or just their employees", I was under the impression that Key did have some involvement with the project. And I can't help but think that the reason the show ended up at PA Works may have been partly due to the show blatantly mimicking Haruhi in some respects.

And according to wiki both Maeda and Toba agreed on P.A Works : Quote:
Don't know if that rules out Kyoto for any future adaptation,P.A works has yet to do a straightforward adaptation,so maybe key would get back to Kyoto if they wanted one of their future works adapted.
