Given that a series like this launched with two cours right from the start, which is a rare occurrence nowadays, you could already tell that this series was going to be something different, the announcement of a follow up is thus not all that surprising. |
| Seeing the cristism in here, you’d think that you all imagine yourselves to be like the critics “Siskel & Ebert”, but these anime are not trying to be an academe award wining project. If the anime gets a second (or more) season, it means that it was successful enough to get that sequel, so maybe it is your own personal perceptive that is off. “Isekai Smartphone” was an enjoyable fun humorous adventure isekai to relax with and not think too hard. “Cuckoos” presented humorous silly cute situations and interactions that didn’t really go anywhere, but that was the point. I would suggest adjusting your scale for judging anime, so it is not so unfair to these types of anime. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating. |

Not sure if you remember the US show Seinfeld in the 1990s, but “Cuckoos” totally reminded me of that type of humor. Seinfeld was sometimes called “the show about nothing”, in a humorous sense, there was no real point to anything going on and it was just friends interacting in different situations, but people laughed and it was successful. |

You’re right, I should have put something more to indicate that it was not to be taken literally. I’ll remember that next time. |

| I blame cringyroll for this. |
 |
| this was the anime which made me rate something 7 in my era of rating everything 9 and 10. just tells you how bad i thought it was. i dont even remember any story of it might be because i watched it weekly. have no intention of rewatching to catch up or anything |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
Moppit said: @Otakupervert890 I know everyone have there own preferences, and they are not going to like and dislike what I do. I still stand with my first comment. It's just some things I seen get a sequel kind of just leaves me wondering. I agree with your point. Every anime the “Otaku…” person mentioned has at least 75% (or higher) approval rating on MAL stats. It’s this popularity that helps it get a second (or more) season. |

| totally agree, i was so confused throughout the while anime, but regardless of how bad the anime is as long as it gets super good reception there will most likely be a second season. all this yet ngnl doesnt have a second season yet :( |

@Istredd I feel the same. If something I like, get a subpar adaptation, and you know it can be better. I don't like rage comments either. At the same time, I feel mixed about them. People pay more attention to something that's really crappy to the point they have to see it themselves on why it receiving so much hate, rather than something that's decent. In turn, it can give it more fans, giving it a greater chance of a sequel. In general, I also think they could be nicer in their comments and explain what they don't like or don't understand. Have more of a civil discussion than saying, "I hate this, and you should feel bad for liking it!" type of thread.
| @Moppit well the whole point of this thread just to say of how much it doesnt deserve a sequel and in the same time asking how it got a sequel. If u read this thread properly, they give you an understanding why they dont liked it. For a show that have 24 episodes, they need at least to show more than sol because this is a romance and other shows have shown that even a sol and romance can still be a good show like chuunibyou while i dont really care about the romance but it still manage to be wholesome and fun to watch. A 12 eps anime can do a better job than this lukewarm anime just tells you how annoying it is that this got a sequel. Plus, u could go the prequel page and see the reviews. they basically explained it. idk man idc really about this news but i had to do it for the lolz hahah |

Kanokari is fine idm it but this one is taking the piss
| Well, Japan and the west have different tastes. It probably went well over there. @Natsude_tanaka are following the manga? I pretty sure you aren't if you are saying that. I though it was good at one time, sadly, it get worse and worse with every chapter. |

Kira_Illusionist said: @ejleon I watched all 24 episodes while it was airing, and was very frustrated with the anime cuz you rarely get 24 episode harem anime right off the bat.... So I did not give up on it and completed whole 24 episodes... I rated it 4/10 on MAL... I was very surprised that a second season was announced when many of my fav anime did not get that.... So I came here to see what people think and was happy everyone are hating in this show.... Then I saw your reply saying "Adjust your scale" and it really made sense to me.... So I gave it a rewatch and I was really blown away by the show.... It became an instant fav romances for me and I changed my rating to 9/10 Slice of life, Rom com don't really have a plot but we enjoy them because of the characters, the situation they find themselves, and humour/drama that creates.... Essentially all rom com movies also operate in a same way (boy and a girl meet, they fall in love, they get separated and in climax get back together usually by a grand gesture by the Male Lead)....After rewatch, my complaints for plot progression has also gone since plot progression in rom com is essentially progression of relationships between leads and there is good progress in this.... Erika becomes closer to Nagi, Sachi, Yohei, Namie, Segawa Hiro and for feelings for Nagi constantly keep rising... She feels jealous, happy, acts as a friend, acts as a lover, acts as a family member with Nagi... Its the same with Hiro, Sachi and Nagi... All the relationships between all characters are significantly different from the 1st episode to 24th episode And there are no secrets that we viewers know but main characters don't or vice versa.... The only character who knows all the secrets is the Hotel King (Nagi bio father, Erika father) and our main characters are trying to get those secrets spilled from him.... Main characters (Nagi, Erika, Hiro, Sachi) know about the photo, discuss about Erika's or even possible Sachi's romantic attraction to Nagi... Nagi even directly asks Sachi about this Characters in couple of cuckoos felt like convincing humans and not having echi is really a plus for me to at least.... Tldr: Please rewatch this anime you may very well like it... there is significant plot progression in terms of personal relationships of main characters.... Main characters also talk to each other without keeping so many secrets and actively hunt the mystery/secrets kept by Hotel king I began reading your reply and thought, “Ok, here we go, someone disagreeing with my comment and giving me an earful” 😅 I was definitely starting to sweat and prepared for the worst. But as I continued reading, I was pleasantly surprised that it was from someone who actually gave my advice a chance and rewatched the anime to test what I said, producing good results. I was encouraged by your reply and I am happy that I could help provide someone with a new perspective on anime. I’m also glad that your opinion of this anime changed and that you enjoyed it like I did. Thank you for taking the time to reply and explain your thoughts. I see that we watched similar anime, would it be alright to send you a friend request? |

| @GersonSalas probably because nisekoi manga is completed. this is still running. still profits to be made. still people to attract to the manga. |
