Seriously? Well I'm glad to hear that considering I enjoyed the first season but I do wonder in which direction they'll take the plot. I'm still looking forward to it anyway.

I really disliked the new Gatchaman approach, but maybe the success of the new brand will enable more oldschool Gatchaman...

Mmh, sadly I didn't like the first season. I had a hard time trying to finish it.
Too bad, I think I'll pass on the second...

Hell yes, I'll take it. I just hope they don't try too hard to give closure to certain characters that weren't given proper closure in the end, but even if they don't it'll still seem off.

Ah this is some great news, loved the first one.

Let's hope it ties things up and goes more further in depth on some things.

But more Hajime is always a good thing.

It would make no sense - if new one was successful why should they go back to what used to be?

As much as I hated the ending of season 1, it will be nice to see more of it - well it might even make sense in context.
They only should keep Hajime as main character, she was best thing here.

Gatchaman is a dark horse for me last season. Better than I expected in many ways. Despite how much it changed the setting, the visual design and the kind of fight from the original Gatchaman I also think that it has properly kept alive the true heart and the spirit of the Gatchaman franchise, and the new setting and design give it a very updated and modern aesthetic and feel. I also like how closely it plants its feet with the society and social dynamics, and how much space and role it offers to various adult characters where they are not being stereotypes with some even show quite a bit of complexity. And it is also thorough in sticking to a modern interpretation of what a sentai show could be - that the villains may not be just pure evil or even just aliens, and there is always an approach where confrontation and violence can be avoided (or at least mitigated). I find all these quite refreshing. While the show indeed has its flaws, with the occasional unsteady sakuga and the clearly rushed and abbreviated ending being two of the most glaring, I still think this show has a lot more pluses than minuses. Not sure how the 2nd season is going to lead given what is settled in 1st season but I am happy to see there will be a 2nd season for this original anime.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I can't even count the animes that was 10x better this year.

Anime is not a zero sum game. They don't get second seasons based on how well they compare to each other. Apparently Crowds had good ratings on NTV despite airing at 2 AM.

And since you didn't know if the other person was serious - unless something really crazy happens, Crowds will end the year in my top 3. MAYBE top 4.

As much as I love the news, what they will be doing in the second season anyway. The story of the first season might be not be fully completed but I don't think they really need another 12 episodes to answer all those questions.

Great News, if not for some other strong titles it might have been my favorite summer series this year. I do hope they don't try too hard in keeping the plot interesting though. But as long as the OST is still as good, I'm definitely on board for this.
More Hajime can't be a bad thing. Never.

I'll never get all the hate for the ending though, it was one of the best things about the show.
I probably regret this post by now.
