| It is completely possible to tell a great complete story in 12 episodes and even less; the main problem of this series is that it focuses on so many unnecessary things (like all the side characters' relationships). |
| I don't think that was the problem really. If anything it feels like they had too much time to fill. I already said this on the episode thread, but I think this should have been a movie instead of a whole season. The other question is how much they had to compromise the vision for the story. Was this how it was supposed to be or they did they not have the budget to make it like they wanted for example? |

Voidian said: 12 eps is not enough to tell a decent story, everything ends up rushed, nonsensical and the end result is just terrible That's an issue with the writers, it is very possible to tell a story in 12 episodes, a few examples: Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica, Erased, A Place Further Than the Universe, Death Parade. And most of those are also original anime. |

| Alma-chan did it in 11 neat episodes this season. I found the pacing intolerable. Fast, slow, mellow, violent, half of it made little sense. It would get dropped if there were 12 more episodes to suffer through. They could have done a lot better with story & direction: some focus! The show was "all over the place" trying to fill every genre there is, it seems! |
| I understand your point. I mean, of course you CAN tell a good story in 12 episodes or even less (movies) and this anime could done so if it had focused more on the main plot... ...but only with 24 episodes you could have had room for both the episodic side characters' stories and the main plot. I doubt it would have been any good since the biggest issue is the writing as a whole starting from its foundations, but there would have been one less problem. |
