| Sounds alright. Might check it out. |
 |
| >Shounen No thanks, i`m tired of Nakama Power Up bullshit. Old School Shounen is way better. |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |

 |
| Aww, Mob Psycho deserved an anime adaption.....not this :( |
 |
| Synopsis and a quick Google Images search makes it seem pretty interesting, I'll be watching it. |
     Short of the day: Monotonous Purgatory(MAL) ✰Public Domain Club | One Piece Club✰ |
| Will check it out. |

|
| The synopsis reminds me of Baki The Grappler I hope the fight and animation is good |
 |

 |
| Not my genre but interesting enough. |
 |
| 2 million votes? Congrats! Looks bloody, I am interested! Set in edo period/post edo period? Even better. I hope it's actually good. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Sounds like the Romans finally invaded Japan! Will probably watch. Looks nice and bloody! |
| My Jap mans choosed a good one. Salute to them. |
 |
| The synopsis is very brief, but sound interesting. |
 |
| Ooh, interested to see how this works out. |
 |
| BS, I think this is rigged or they must have been hacked, mob psycho had such a huge lead is was damn near impossible for anyone else to win :( What a fraud. |

CaptainZoro said: Aww, Mob Psycho deserved an anime adaption.....not this :( I don't think someone who doesn't know most of the series (from the vote) should decide that. Zeta986 said: >Shounen No thanks, i`m tired of Nakama Power Up bullshit. Old School Shounen is way better. Well, Hokuto no Gun translates this manga and they usually translate old school stuff so.... Even though I basically know nothing about this series, I wanted it to win. Every new sports series is welcome, especially a martial arts one. I'm excited! |
| Well, it sounds cool tbh. |
 |
| [b][i]I am SPARTACUS ASHURA |
 |
| edgy shat |
 |
| Sounds ok I guess |
 |
| Wellp, that's incredibly fucking disappointing. Ichiba Kurogane wa Kasegitai, Mamiya-san to Issho, and Sekai Oni all deserved an adaptation over whatever the hell this is supposed to see. Pretty sure this doesn't need to exist when the actual movie Gladiator already does. |
| Sounds ehhh |
| Heh, i just read the first chapter (and the only one available in english as of now) few days ago and honestly it's pretty fun with all the crazy and over the top fighting. |
| Rolling Boys... I'm sold. |
 |
| will give it a try Thx for the news :) |
 |
| I'm glad that they picked an action anime, not some boring slice of life/romance/comedy anime with school settings |
| Looks pretty cool I must say. Will definitely check it out when it eventually airs. |
 |
| Looks interesting so I might watch it. |
| Same. It will be something new in the sport anime genre. Well hope so :) |
Zeta986 said: Wow, you sure know a lot about this manga just from reading its synopsis and genre tags!>Shounen No thanks, i`m tired of Nakama Power Up bullshit. Old School Shounen is way better. |
| Selected by fans? Love that. Great selection method - instead of leaving it up to people who think they know what will be popular, just let the fans vote on what to get an adaptation. :P Will watch. |
| will decide when more info's out |
| looks alright ? may watch |
 |
| 2 million votes? wow, that's a lot Besides, show about material arts are always welcomed. Will watch |
| Hmm, the synopsis seems alright maybe will give it a try |
 |
| Sounds bloody. |
 |
| The synopsis is interesting. Anyway 2 million votes!!?? I'll be watching it! |

 |
| For anyone that's curious, Mob Psycho 100 was about 1 million short on votes when the final results came. |
|
| Oh, I remember reading the first chapter a few days ago. It's alright so far, but has potential to be a really good series. |
 |
| Looks interesting. I will check it out. |
 |
| Sounds interesting. |
 |
| I'll probably check it out. Doesn't sound too bad. |
