Wakaki Tamiki tweeted in his twitter (@angelfrench) that the length of Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai TV series depends on the reactions of the viewers (i.e. the sales of the DVD and other media). ryohayate2409sa: @angelfrench Is it one season long? Wakaki: It's up to the reactions. I wonder how many episodes it will take until we see Tenri. DiceKatKobe: @angelfrench What do you mean by "reactions"? Should we send emails to the TV company? Wakaki: Frankly, the sales of the DVD determine everything. Wakaki is anxious about the poor environment of the anime creators. "In the case of manga, the author can improve the quality of the work and make money by his/her private effort, but anime creators' efforts never pay.", he said. "I've learned how hard the anime production is, so I'm seriously thinking about how to sell it." Sources: Wakaki's twitter Modified by dtshyk, 09-08-10, 1:39 AM |

Hahah, so it's pretty much "if you don't buy it's your fault we had to cancel at episode 12 with an incomplete ending"? That's retarded. You plan on a couple of episodes (like 12), produce them and if sales are good then you make more. Sounds like they want it to be the next Bleach/One Piece/Naruto but without sufficient funding or fanbase thus pressing the existing fans to get the dvds. [fancy signature here] |

its only natural that some studios have that mentality...why continue if your at a loss(to please fans who download the show?)...that's just not smart commerce  |

ref. Nyan Koi's case In the final episode of Nyan Koi!, the characters implied the possibility of the second season. However, the PR staff of Pony Canyon immediately tweeted that the second season hadn't been fixed yet. At a live event of Nyan Koi anime staff held in last January Producer Tanaka announced that it's unlikely that the second season will be made. The serialization of Nyan Koi! manga has been suspended due to the illness of the author since this April. Nyankoi!

ios said: Well considering that their last anime was the massive commercial failure known as House of Five Leaves and the anime they made before that (Seiken no Blacksmith) only enjoyed limited success, I don't blame them for being a bit cautious.wow seems anime studios now a days dont have that enough money This will probably one of those overrated anime. I heard it's not quite as generic as it seems, but I'm not keen on even the more original entries in this genre (Haruhi Suzumiya and to a lesser extent, Bakemonogatari) |

It will sell, because the show sounds like something your typical japanese otaku would enjoy. |

meh, probably not going to be a good anime if this is the mentality that drives it. I understand it like Whoomp does, they are trying to force it to be as long as possible to make as much money as possible even if it gets messed up and has an incomplete ending... who would pay for such a thing? Not I for sure  |

Fine, but just don't let them make some retarded "original" anime ending. Besides it's nothing new, it's obvious that length of the series depends on sales. It's just probably the first time creator said it so openly. Ii tenki desu ne... |

BigSimo said: how about length of manga decides the no. of episodes, not some retarded sales scheme bs. this is so annoying, the government should be massively funding anime studios WHY the cost of producing an anime to the cost of publishing a manga is a big difference...as quoted: Wakaki is anxious about the poor environment of the anime creators. "In the case of manga, the author can improve the quality of the work and make money by his/her private effort, but anime creators' efforts never pay.", he said. "I've learned how hard the anime production is, so I'm seriously thinking about how to sell it." and if the studio was doing badly with their previous works, then this maybe their only option....nothing in the world is free and these people have families who they need to feed and the last thing they want is to claim for bankruptcy like TAC just to please fans who may not even buy their merchandise |

I'm the same...if the adaptations anywhere as good(or better) as the manga I'll definitely buy so they can make more eps |
