The show must go on! I've been looking forward to the animation since they announced it. :[

Episode 2 had no noticeable drop in quality, in fact it was much better than episode 1.

The animation problems sound like bullshit.

Considering the level of this crisis, I wouldn't be surprised if the show's cancelled, and even less so at poor quality over how well it could have been produced.

After watching episode 3, this animation crisis is total bullshit and is just a couple animators complaining.

The animation is still fine. There's QUALITY moments here and there but its far from being serious problems.

Give it to KyoAni and all will be well! Heck... PLS DO IT! lol
They're not doing anything anyway except what? K-ON Movie? lol
AIC's doing way too many shows.
I dunno what the structure is there on AIC.
but doing too many might be one of the reasons of "mismanagement".

Is there some evidence about how is the production doing in terms of popularity and rating in japan?

A bunch of guys complaining in the occidental part of the planet isn't going to change anything. We're not the target of the anime (at least not right now).

Seeing those Stalker rankings makes me sad, since I thought Shana 3 would sell in the 10k ballpark, like the other two. Looks like it won't even reach 5k at this point.

Absolutely ludicrously well. To put it in some perspective, there's a site that makes sales estimates based on Amazon Japan DVD/BD rankings. It's generally in the right ballpark, if not super super precise. The top 10 Vol. 1s for Fall 2011 so far:

(*28,786 pt) 2011/11/23 Persona 4
(**9,820 pt) 2011/11/02 Working'!!
(**5,242 pt) 2011/12/22 Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon
(**4,405 pt) 2012/01/13 Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai
(**1,751 pt) 2011/12/21 Shinryaku!? Ikamusume
(**1,714 pt) 2011/12/21 Tamayura ~hitotose~
(**1,448 pt) 2011/11/25 Maji de Watashi no Koi Shinasai!!
(**1,441 pt) 2011/12/22 Maken-ki!
(***,991 pt) 2011/12/22 Shakugan no Shana III
(***,848 pt) 2012/01/25 Guilty Crown

Important disclaimer: Before anyone makes much too nuanced conclusions using his data, note that the rankings are cumulative and are calculated continuously until 7 days after release, so these aren't final, and obviously shows that have been solicited longer have accumulated more points (hence no Fate/Zero, it only got listed yesterday but it'll be a huge huge seller). The above is also BDs only, though the only shows putting up noteworthy DVD numbers so far this season are Persona and Working anyway.

But just looking at their relative estimates makes it pretty clear that Persona is going to blow away everything this season except maybe Fate/Zero. Although Persona's first volume is discounted, so Vol. 2+ won't sell as much. AndPersona is benefiting from a huge game fanbase who are ordering early. It should easily crush most shows though, all that said. It's been remarkably persistent in hanging at the top of the rankings even after a month.

All that to say, it's damn popular.


C3 didn't even make it, but judging from that Dengeki Bunko figure convention it's probably made to sell figma and ecchi goodies of Fear, I keep seeing exclusive stuff from that series being announced every other week.

While it's still early, it looks like C3 could be the lowest selling show of the season, except maybe Kimi to Boku. It'll be close. Mashiro-iro will be competing for a bottom rank as well. Phi Brain was way way back in last (like, ranked 8,000th) before it suddenly shot way the hell up into the top 100 yesterday. It's down around 276 now.


All that advertising for figma and ecchi stuff must be bad for the show as there is so much of it that the otaku can't resist blowing their money on Fear merchandise.
