Are there chances that Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou is gonna get an adaption anytime soon?
I probably regret this post by now.

Looking at a lot of these, it seems that the anime version of even the best selling light novels were butchered.

The thing is that mainstream audiences aren't really interested in anime... its viewed as a kids/nerd thing. So when more mainstream manga/novels get adaptions, its often times in the live action format.

If only more people over here realized that anime is aimed at the otaku market, and not the mainstream...

I realize it, that's why I'm not surprised. I'm just saying it's a shame. And it's not like there aren't still mainstream-aimed anime outside the midnight slots. Uchuu Kyoudai for example could have as well just been Live-action, but gladly it didn't turn out like that. So it's not 100% sure that stuff like Biblia Koshodou and similar titles wouldn't get an anime. Chances are slim, but there's always hope and I just expressed my regret when it was finally crushed.

Well, Uchuu Kyoudai indeed got a live-action adaptation - as a movie that was released in June this year. As a matter of fact, there were questions raised when the anime was announced whether it should be a live-action series instead.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Are you serious? I thought anime was very common in Japan, much more than in the west. :/


Don't tell me it's the same about manga...

The second top selling novel actually sounds really cool.

^ You are also a fan of Boku H ! Many fans of the LN don't like the anime though. Wonder if it is the same case for you?

It is possible that if you buy a novel a few months before the anime starts but after the announcement there will be "anime coming" bands on it, so even though I saw those "anime coming" bands round those LNs in the pic I was not sure you bought the novels before you saw the anime or the other way round.

What I read from fans comment is that the anime changed a lot from the anime particularly for the ending and many do not like that. That's why I was curious about what you think in case you had read the LN when you watched the anime.
