Don't really understand the rub against Shinbo here. I thought he had stated, that Shaft's fundamental goal first and foremost when they do adaptations is to satisfy fans of the source material. One of Shaft's two biggest hits isn't even an adaptation; Shaft's series generally aren't breakout monster hits actually.

Of course in this case im sure the end result will be the complete opposite as to what happened to these 2 directors since Shinbo's Madoka series is now the best selling TV anime on BluRay ever while Yamakan's Fractale only sold 883 copies.

That's a false analogy when Madoka Magica had great writing on top of being well-marketed. Yamakan while preaching about his ideals didn't really follow through in Fractale. That's why he gets a lot of bad rep: he can talk the talk but couldn't walk the walk. He just ends up looking pretentious most of the time.
Anyway, chapter 334 is out. As I suspected, both strategies worked, but Nagi doesn't feel good about it. And apparently Luca puts on a Kyubey costume so that her manga wouldn't be carried by her reputation as an idol. To be honest, I also completely forgot about the guy who originally challenged Nagi in the doujin market. |

I don't understand how come it never cross through Hina's mind the idea of making Hayate crossdress. They'd have sold the dōjinshi even faster.
Anyway, just as I though, Nagi sold her stuff, just as expected, but not for the right reasons and she knows it. As for the Shinbo/Yamakan thing. That's simply a joke.

I know, I know. I was simply joking, considering Luca's side had herself, Hina and Hayate. Had they wanted to attract some attention easily, they would have been able to.
I'm really surprised Maria allowed Nagi sell those pictures of her. In fact, I'm surprised Nagi even did that, considering back in the day she wouldn't allow even Hayate get close to Maria. But well, poor Maria has been reduced to a mere gag-character. I'm also surprised Hayate was on Luca's side and not on Nagi's. But well, he knew Nagi wanted to be independent in this one. So, he probably thought it was okay to support Luca this time.

lol. If Kyuubey were as popular in-universe in Hayate as in real life though, a gigantic Kyuubey cosplay would still be fairly attention grabbing.
Anyway: whoa, the fact that Luca sold out already does seem like it was a pretty big blow to Nagi. There's just no way Nagi really could've been satisfied from this in the start. I feel kinda bad for Maria, and bad for Nagi herself. I wonder how much further this doujin-making storyline will carry, though; I'd really love to see Nagi become genuinely competent at something through hard work and passion, but that would completely overwhelm the rest of the story at the current pace. |

QB appeared and at the same moment, you guys were talking about Madoka Seriously though, I don't know whether Shinbo had said that or not but his anime quality is still amazing in my eyes.
