| Meh I don't care I'll still watch it anyways just to check it out, but I do love the character designs for the guys though. I don't see why people are bitching the same thing happens here in the US if the content is too bad for TV its censored or edited then when the DVD boxsets get released its uncensored and unedited. Unless you guys are just too impatient to wait for your precious uncensored animu. At least it is getting an uncensored version, but the question is will it be restricted to the 18+ section? |

Except they do. Any show with fanservice has a much higher chance of making profit than one that doesn't. It makes perfect financial sense to have fanservice. And even more financial sense to have uncensored episodes on the BDs since that is also a proven tactic for extra BD sales. You might not like it, but the whole point of anime is to make money.. its a business. This makes them extra money. |

It didn't work with LOL Heroes, it didn't work with Umineko no Naku Koro ni, it didn't work with Shiki, it didn't work with ChäoS;HEAd, it didn't work with 11eyes but C;H and 11eyes were just shit -- well, you catch my drift, don't you? These are all shows that have a resemblance of a great story and they all sold like shit. That shows that the random fanservice did not raise the overall BD/DVD sales. A show with a GOOD story does NOT need fanservice, it mostly ruins the experience. I'm not saying fanservice is a bad thing. Hey, I too enjoy ecchi shows once in a while or some small fanservice in, for example, Steins;Gate, but ZEXCS is overdoing this, especially since the source material doesn't contain any fanservice at all. |

| Whole lotta mad in this thread. Who cares? It looks like yet another mediocre LN adaptation that will sell poorly and be forgotten in a few weeks anyways. This is even worse than people complaining about the CGI dragons in Game of Thrones last night. |

He'd as soon see it all banned if it got him more votes with intolerant senior citizens. He's not on your side. Never thought that way. But I think of him as a fellow lolicon hater:) Edit: And yeah, I think to like something so stupid stupid as Seikon no Qwaser or Queen's Blade you have to be a pretty tasteless person. Ishihara's only objective is to restrict all manga and ban all anime from TV. He will only bring you misery no matter what genre of anime or manga you like. Even if you don't like these you are guaranteed misery, look what he said about the earthquake and tsunami victims, he wanted them to die. EH!!! What do you mean by that and why would he said that anyway??? For the anime/manga topic: Ishihara thinks otaku have flawed DNA and such and that those media are bad for kids and teens. The Earthquake deal is just because he is an insensitive asshole, hopefully karma will hit him for that comment. He doesn't like anyone he only likes his seat in office, he doesn't care if everyone suffers as long he has his seat for life. OH!!! NARUHODO!!! Thanks for the information. |

| Why re they producing this kinds of anime i wonder who is watchin them ? they re annoyyinggggg |
| i think they should remove this anime completly, just more pointless shows with fan-service |

| with the way youtube has been, a video featuring a guy mowing his lawn will eventually get pulled down. why? just because. Hoppy said: First episode rejected I'm shocked, somethings going to tell me that this will be censored more than Qwaser and Kojika combined. speaking as someone whose read the manga, i doubt it. speaking of which, since they added pointless panty shots, what would they do? just a thought, i for one am very hesitant on how the anime will come out. |

itsthatguy said: Personally I had no idea what this was beforehand but it looks awesome. Basically this. It was the loli pantsu from the trailer that interested me in it. And remember people, Legend of the Legendary Heroes sold like SHIT. It lost them money, so if they did another adaption similar to it, they needed to throw in stuff that'll help it sell... like fanservice. But of course, people never understand the financial situations behind the anime, and just like to find stuff to cry about without understanding why its like that. |

What I don't understand is why people would sooner buy a show so full of fanservice that the plit can hardly be seen at all, rather than buying a show with an amazing plot. There've been way too many good shows that sold like crap simply because they didn't have enough fanservice. |

There've been way too many good shows that sold like crap simply because they didn't have enough fanservice. The current person who is willing to shell out 80 dollars for 2 episodes is the hardcore otaku. They don't watch anime for deep plots or anything. These are the people who have their 2D waifus and tons of figurines, posters and body pillows of anime girls. So they are the ones who are buying anime, and they want cute girls and fanservice more than deep plots. In any industry, you need to pander to the people who are your main customers. For anime, its the otaku. |

| seriously.... how bad will the ecchi and violent factors get to violent the 'guideline', with this anime of this level |

| I'm not trying to say the best selling shows are fanservice ridden... just that if you look over all the sales, more often than not a fanservice show will make profit by being in the 5-7k range. So adding fanservice is a low risk + high reward kind of venture, since it'll guarantee extra sales with little drawbacks. Which is something a show like Tenma needs. Legend of the Legendary Heroes, which is the same author and studio, sold about 1k per volume. Thats absolutely horrible. So the obvious solution for a show similar to it is to add stuff that'll help the overall sales... like fanservice and uncensored BD episodes. With those, it may be able to get over the manabi line and be a profitable show. |

With those, it may be able to get over the manabi line and be a profitable show. Y'know, the reason why LOL Heroes sold so terribly isn't because it didn't have any fanservice, it's mostly because of its incomprehensible story at times because they tried to adapt 11 novels in 24 episodes of 20 minutes, which is impossible. Absolutely impossible, I don't know what the hell they were thinking. They even decided to add an incredibly rushed version of the first few chapters of the sequel novels in the last episode. They just completely raped the source material. The novels were actually selling very well, and apparently the anime also increased the sales of the sequel novels. If ZEXCS wants better sales, they should put some more effort into adapting the source material into a good anime that both the anime-only viewers and the original light novel reads will appreciate. But I agree that it's easier to just add panty shots to every scene. That hardly takes any effort. |

| "Remove" is just the dislike button for Youtube admins. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Damn it, YouTube! I'm getting really annoyed by them with the stupid copyright thing! |
| Why is it in english in the first place? |
|
| Because the English narrator is awesome. No idea, really. What I'd like to think though, is that they use this English narrator for the sole purpose of later releasing the DVD/BDs in America. And well, it's got fanservice and all, so I bet it'll sell better than LOLHeroes. |

| well i was planning to watch this anime sooner or later, though it wasnt high on my list. now knowing its from the same guy who made LOL heroes, i'm just gonna have to see what this is about. and also a lot of you guys are actually making som decent points. whatever the case may be, the anime/manga industry is changing. fanservice will literally always sell, their just exploiting that. and like some1 else said; its a business, every business will do whatever it takes to make more profit. some care about what you think, others dont give a shit. unless the whole anime/manga community does somthing, everything will be the same. |

It's notable that now that the sale numbers of Tenma are out, it shows how utterly ridiculous your whole argument is: Legend of the Legendary Heroes: 1,480 BD copies sold Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi: 774 BD copies sold As jmal already pointed out, "fanservice" shows rarely are top tier hits. I have no idea where you got the idea that "adding fanservice is a low risk + high reward kind of venture, guaranteeing extra sales with little drawbacks." If something, it's the complete opposite, as Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi already showed us. |
