Is there any chance for a remake of "Angel Beats!" with more episodes? Would anyone else like to see it get a remake?
no_comparisonBM said: so despite its unlikelihood, I would love to see a remake with more episodes. It's not just unlikely, it's more realistic to say that it will absolutely never happen. We are talking of an Anime Original story, made almost 15 years ago... What is the point of Remaking it ? They already had opportunities to expand their work, such as with the Mangas or the Visual Novels, but they did not, adding only very few informations. That confirm that, for them, the story is finished. At the very best, you'll get a special comedy episode to celebrate some anniversary, like with Hell's Kitchen, and even that is doubtfull, as they released nothing for the 10 years. |

| No need, the original is good enough. |
No, this isn't my signature-desu. |
| 99.9% this is never getting a remake. But i said for years that this needed more episodes is order to have more fleshed out characters and story. It could've been one of the greats, but it just ended up being good which is not bad. |

Hell nah. They cropped an anime that was supposed to have 24 episodes into 13 episodes!! It's so rushed!! Imagine if angel beats had a great adaptation with 24 episodes??
| @kochia I think making it 1 cour was part of its success. |

| I agree with your thoughts on it. As for a remake, never going to happen. Maeda has stepped away from writing anime, I believe, and I don't think that there would be any impetus to revisit it anyway. It's really unfortunate that it had as few episodes as it did, it needed to be at least twice as long. |

| 1. No, probably not sadly :[ 2. One of the few series imo that deserves a remake in this day and age that's chock-full of'm. Last few eps were utter greatness. |

It's so rushed!! Do you guys have a source for this claim ? It's something often brought up in the fandom, but i never saw any source that actually indicates that, and it's not mentioned in Japanese wikis/interview either... The closest thing is Yosuke Toba from Aniplex saying that "13 Episodes is not enough to tell the whole story that Maeda envisioned", which is a common critics made about the Animes Maeda writes. |

| Only flaw was number of episodes, I wanted at least 12 more, kinda rushed, still in my TOP 10 anime for more than a decade. |
| I personally don’t see it happening, and I don’t need it to happen. Angel Beats is still one of my favorite anime ever. To me, it’s perfect. If we were to get more Angel Beats, I’d want Track Zero (prequel) or even Tabisuru Tenshi-chan (spin-off) to be adapted. |

| I really loved the anime but I feel there’s more to tell, so if the remake is about the backstories of the other characters, I would totally love it. |
 |
| Since it was originally a late night anime, I think it would be difficult to remake it. I watched it in real time and thought that that episode count was just right, and I don't think that a longer episode count is necessarily better. If it were to be remade, the voice actors and music might change, and I would not want to see a remake with different voice actors and music. I hope that someday there will be a time when people who want to see a remake can pay for it and have an anime production company make it. |

| Does it make sense to remake it? Honestly what does right? People just remake shit for money, they don't really do it for the fans lol. Now would I like it to be remade? no, not really. I think it did feel a like high paced, but I don't mind, it was fine like that. I don't even want a sequel cause I partially liked it for the characters, so no, no remake for me |
| there's no need for a remake it was well done from start to end and the anime has aged very well |

Not only that, Maeda Jun has no interest in making anime anymore after his recent works were criticized harshly.

Just a lot of toxic people out there, and I think people just forget that people you see social media are real people.
| You should clarify *death threats* Not just simply harsh criticism lol. |

| @aurora_yuuki Every remake could be better than the original, but that doesn't mean it should be remade. Producers will only do that if the investment is likely to pay off, which I think is unlikely in case of Angel Beats, because the original is good enough for today's standards. |

| @aurora_yuuki That show is almost twice as old from cell animation period. Remaking those is much more likely to pay off, if they are well known and easily improvable. |

| I love Angel Beats and hate that half of its planned runtime got axed and put into light novels/manga instead, but I dunno if it should get remade. I guess at this point I'd rather see new but similar sad-Key-feelings projects |

| @aurora_yuuki The original Spice and Wolf animation looks much more outdated than that of Angel Beats, many people avoided to watch it for this reason, so the remake probably pays off. |

| @Zarutaku Tokyo Ghoul definitely needs a remake, though. The animation still holds up, but the adaptation was butchered to smithereens. Studio Pierrot did one heck of a disservice to the original manga. So the fans could do with a remake. And that is not even mentioning the fact that it's one of the best horror mangas of all-time. The manga ought to be served justice. |

| @Zarutaku Spice and Wolf paid off. Besides, the demand for a Tokyo Ghoul remake was way higher than Spice and Wolf. I'm not seeing how it wouldn't pay off, unless the new studio (if any studio picks it up) somehow manage to make it way worse than the original. |
