I know this isn't really the point of the thread, but I'd like to ask you since you've read the manga: did the anime do anything different than the manga, or did it follow the manga closely?

Oh Yeah! Totally! They followed it perfectely. Except the tiny added parts/scenes to understand the characters better, but thats just it.

Their intentions, they probably do intend to or more realistically speaking, "want" to. Although really, they can't be working on it now or even soon as the Japanese chapters are roughly at Chapter 60 right now and they ended season 1 at the end of Chapter 50.

But realistically, it depends on the sales. It has a lot of time to sell over time.

They're at chapter 51 in the manga right now. At least in the english scanlation.
and they animated it all the way to chapter 50.

The only major differences were some parts being shown earlier in the anime then they were in the manga, but they didn't seem out of place at all, and of course minor changes to Himiko and Kousuke's back stories, name not showing the rape scenes.

I want a second season so bad, but I know we'll be waiting a whole, but it's worth it to avoid filler.

Exactly. Like I said, they added to understand the characters more.

I also can't wait! Wish Btooom! would publish faster though...

What about Kira's fights with the MC? What chapter was it?

OT:
I don't think there's gonna be a 2nd season, Btooom! anime isn't popular in Japan (according to popularity polls, it failed to even enter the top 50, out of 77..) so a 2nd season is highly unlikely to happen.

Continuity? Since when did the animation studios care about such things? there are a lot of anime that were left unfinished, so I suggest you don't hold your hopes high.

I had a feeling something was missing, like they skipped 2 fights of Kira vs Ryouta.

... damn, I don't remember. sorry.

about the 2nd season thing.
I heard someone say something like "but its MadHouse, they always do second seasons even without good sales." and they used a recent anime as an example.

I just gained some mad respect for Ryouta telling Himiko that he will get them both off the island and then date her officially, even more respect with the fact that he was level headed enough to see right from wrong and not give into his base primal instincts and become a dog and stood up to his a self image of his friend. That episode was some crazy happenings though i must say that I saw Tara-san dying about when he came into the picture I just figured it was just a matter of time, I am seriously hoping for a Season 2 because they set it up for a second season at the end of episode 12 with the way they took off with that helicopter to head to the Island, and with the Continue Yes/No well here is my vote YES YES YES YES YES AND AN INFINANTE AMOUNT OF TIMES YES I want to see what happens so badly I have been checking the time repeatedly every Thursday looking for the next episode so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE YES A SEASON 2

2 fights? Really? Kira was the most interesting character in the whole series.. Oh well, I guess that's what you get when you try to cram 50 chapters in 12 episodes. (Magi is doing the same this season, and it's a whole mess from a manga-reader's PoV)

No problem, might check for them when I start reading the manga.

OT:
I'm not sure what examples you were told of, but there are some anime that even Madhouse left unfinished, take Claymore, Highschool of the Dead, Shigurui, and Tenjou Tenge for example, all of them had horrible endings and the plot was left unfinished, not to mention that the manga of the last two are already completed.

due to the fact that there was the "continue? yes/no" and the fact that they need to collect 8 more chips, i think i have enough reason to believe there will be anoter season. but from what i hear there isn't enough manga released yet? so it might take a while...

If you want to talk about incomplete animes then look no further then Deadman Wonderland, that anime is actually really good I don't understand how the animes work but what I know for sure is that more often then not animes that do really well in Japan end up being a bust in the USA and animes that are a hit in USA end up being a bust in Japan from time to time there are animes that do well in both sides but if an anime is a bust in Japan they more often then not drop the anime which is sad because I really was hoping to finish Deadman Wonderland. (I know this is the wrong section for this but it follows what is being dicussed atm so I figured I would bring it up. Sorry if this is inappropriate.)

Why would they need 8 more when they only need 8 to get a helicopter to come, remember they plan to hijack the Helicopter when it shows up.

Manga is on-hiatus, though I doubt it'll get continued myself. (but I'm hoping of a whole re-make)

HotD's plot was left untouched iirc, it started only, and some things happened related to the plot, but they didn't reach a conclusion, so it's an unfinished plot. But I guess the show was just fan-service, that'd be the reason of it.

Shigurui was a gore fest, where nipples and mouths got cut easily. It was a decent watch, the animation is amazing (though make sure to watch it in HD).

Tenjou Tenge was also a good fighting shounen, but the amount of ecchi in it is too big. The anime was just a huge flash-back, the plot started in the first episodes and then it jumped to flashbacks and ended in flashbacks. I think there was a movie too, but I doubt they were able to adapt the whole manga in it.

I see two options (other than the obvious waiting for enough new manga material to be officially released)....

1. They could always make a 2nd season that doesn't follow the manga, since it would be years for enough new manga material to be released to follow it exactly. We've seen that before with other series (most notably FMA)... and eventually they could follow it up with a movie that follows the manga.

2. In the case of some TV shows (like Game of Thrones), the author will tell the producers of the show what their future plot outline is so that they can continue the story before it is written or in case something happens to the author. The show technically could stay more or less true to the manga by following a plot outline layed out by the mangaka... This would work especially in a show like Btooom, where a lot of it is comprised of action scenes more than plot... the plot outline can be summarized and adapted for TV as an anime quite easily without having to take everything from the actual frames of the manga.

Btoopm could do well as an anime only roughly following the correct plotline of the author, and also do well as a manga (even if it is released after the anime) because of additional details that could take place during fights or between characters that the anime would miss. If anything, it could work out favorably for both the anime and the manga... Btooom would most likely maintain the majority of its audience even if it veered a little off course from the manga, since a good chunk of viewers are in it more for the setting and basic format of the series and the action and not necessarily the inter-character relationships. And it would most likely boost the sales of the manga as well (not to mention raise the popularity of Btooom merchandise... figurines, games, etc.). From a financial end, it would probably be best for the Btooom franchise to get the 2nd season out as soon as possible while to retain viewership and build on its momentum instead of waiting years for the exact new material in which its popularity could decline and the 1st season of the anime fades from the minds of viewers.

In any case, I did find it strange that we had both the "continue" message at the end of episode 12 and a completely different intro for episode 12 as well. Why in the world create a new intro on the very last episode if you aren't planning on releasing any new episodes for years?

That being said, I don't think we'll see it pushed out in the next few seasons, but I could definitely see it getting a release sometime between Winter 2013/2014 and Winter 2014/2015 (1 1/4 - 2 1/4 years)... my bet would be on Spring 2014.

Sounds to me like I will like Shigurui, I was okay with HotD but not something I would rate re-watch worthy as for Tenjou Tenge Just discribing it has put me to sleep so I probably wont watch more then 1-2 episodes (1-2 episodes to see if I will care to watch it) even though the Manga is on-hiatus it's still worth reading through IMO.

Any chance to provide proof to this claim? The manga comes out monthly in Japan and Volume 10 gets released next month meaning there are at least 4-5 unscanned chapters out of Btooom right now. The English scans aren't out; but the actual manga is still being published monthly.

As someone who avidly follows news, I have yet to see any news on the author taking hiatus.

Thanks for trying to clarify, but I am aware of that. The Japanese chapters are up to around 55+ and there is definitely no hiatus as there's no announcement or news on that, so I'm claiming that's wrong.

I hope that there will be another season, because this ending was terrible. Thw whole anime was really good, i watched 11 episodes in 4 or 5 hours, i'm addicted to it, so my point is, that they won't screw up the whole anime with a bad ending, so there will be another season I think. :D

I was talking about Deadman Wonderland, if you're talking about the same thing I'm talking about then this was mentioned on the author's blog, she's pregnant and she took a hiatus. Check the DW board, you'll find tons of these threads, in addition to the author's blog (in the latest chapter's discussion thread iirc)

The previously mentioned example of a Madhouse production which got a second season without good sales was probably Chihayafuru; it was described as 'unremunerative' and 'unprofitable' in a news article several months ago. However, it did sound like that was only because of the influence of the television network which was broadcasting it, and that under normal circumstances, it would have been dropped.

I don't know if the 'Credit 0' message under the 'Continue? Yes/No' message was significant. I thought that it could be indicating that that the lack of funds from poor sales was making a second season look doubtful rather than being positive news about a forthcoming second season. On the other hand, it could just have been part of the representation of the arcade game screen, and it might not have any relevance whatsoever.

Manga is on-hiatus, though I doubt it'll get continued myself. (but I'm hoping of a whole re-make)

Any chance to provide proof to this claim? The manga comes out monthly in Japan and Volume 10 gets released next month meaning there are at least 4-5 unscanned chapters out of Btooom right now. The English scans aren't out; but the actual manga is still being published monthly.

As someone who avidly follows news, I have yet to see any news on the author taking hiatus.

Their intentions, they probably do intend to or more realistically speaking, "want" to. Although really, they can't be working on it now or even soon as the Japanese chapters are roughly at Chapter 60 right now and they ended season 1 at the end of Chapter 50.

But realistically, it depends on the sales. It has a lot of time to sell over time.

They're at chapter 51 in the manga right now. At least in the english scanlation.
and they animated it all the way to chapter 50.

Thanks for trying to clarify, but I am aware of that. The Japanese chapters are up to around 55+ and there is definitely no hiatus as there's no announcement or news on that, so I'm claiming that's wrong.

oh... haha thats so cool, I didn't know they were farthur in the manga.
Wish they would scanlate the missing chapters then.

I think its pretty obvious that Btooom! will get a second season (though it depends on the sales) and I'm telling you now its going to take awhile because they'll have to wait till theres more chapters to cover for a second season.

Sales-wise this anime is pretty terrible. The vol.1 failed even to chart in Oricon at all. And as you said, there is also the shortage of source material too. So we have two factor against a 2nd season. I am sure that they hold out hope for a 2nd season but the objective criteria do not seem that favorable for it unfortunately.

I can't really read moonrunes but I checked the site and I think they're going to adapt the rest into a movie which might be released 2013!

I doubt it. But if you have the address, perhaps you can post it here so that I can have a look as I read Japanese.

Tenjou Tenge was also a good fighting shounen, but the amount of ecchi in it is too big.

Actually Tenjou Tenge is seinen as the manga magazine on which it was serialized, Ultra Jump, is a seinen magazine. The ecchi level of the manga would not pass muster in a shounen magazine.

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.

I read the manga so I know.
Its amazing how they animated almost all the chapters that are released except for one or two with only 12 episodes.

I know, right? so amazing how they did things. *_*
Hopefully when the manga has more chps it will have a season 2. >:D

The series will most likely not get a 2nd season unless the manga is going strong after 3 years, the first season used all of volume 8 and a chapter of volume 9. The manga serialization used to be weekly and is currently monthly for over 2 years now. I don' know if this manga will go on for another 3 years, I wouldn't mind to be honest but if it does and is still popular, I reckon the series will get a 2nd season. However, for now I reckon in a year or so, there will probably be an OVA series that covers the current story ark that's still going on.

Didn't the first two BD/DVD volumes of BTOOOM! sell poorly? (Not that that is always an indicator of whether an anime will get a sequel).

The "Continue, Y/N? Credits: 0" at the end seemed like it was a pretty clear way of saying that there will be more if people start buying it, which is probably not gonna happen.

When I saw "continue?"
I thought: "YEAH possible second season?"
and then "Yes/No"
I thought they will show "yes"
maybe staff don't know there will be second season or not...

After ending credits,
it looks like this is quite possible :)
