Just checking in as I do periodically, to see if this thread is getting any less weird/off-putting...noop.

Sometimes the answer is that the author of the source material kept putting off the next chapter (writer's block, or more interested in another project), until they died. Other times it's just that the source material (manga or novel) is still being published, but not enough has been released to make another season of an anime, and by the time another season's worth of source material is available, everybody involved in the anime has moved on to other projects. Then there's the times when the big wigs decided that the source material was popular enough for a single season, but not enough for two seasons, and that's that, as far as they're concerned. Or perhaps the big wigs hired a consultant from HK (the fans suck, and they hate them). |

View Quote I lol'd so hard at the part when Maple goes Mecha. In any other show it would be an emotional scene. As she's so op their morale is instantly broken. But instead it's so absurd that you can't help but laugh. |

Obviously, on the Lesbos. Cats was still a better premise, with more interesting characters. The philosophy stuff is too subtle if there's more to it than "this is really fucked up, what we're doing." I get that the handlers/pets have slight personality differences, but not nearly enough to be interesting. But hey, I'm one of those cretins who thinks the ending of Eva was a hackneyed cop-out that was completely unsatisfying and an insult to the audience, so what do I know. |
