Ah that's cool. I've only watched the first episode of the first season. I'll probably get around to finishing it soon.

I hope it'll be 2-cour again so they can adapt as much as possible (another 44+ chapters) perhaps

Thank god. I've been gradually enjoying this season more and more, it would be a shame to end it here. Hope the second season reaches for bigger heights.

Incredible news. The anime isn't so well-loved in Japan apparently but I'm glad they're sticking with it.

They have to. It's pointless if they don't finish it in March.

YESSS!!! Hope it will be another 2 cour. The 1st season's pacing is well done but I hope somehow that they can fit 3 chapters per episode next time without ruining the pacing. More chapters adapted the better.

SHAFT PLS. Don't kill yourself with overabundance of works being done at one. Hopefully Fate/Extra and Owarimonogatari wont suffer from this.

Still great news otherwise.

I had no knowledge and grasped it fairly quickly. Somewhere around the middle they have a cute, yet cheesy, little song and animation sequence where they expand on the mechanics of shoji. After those I pretty much comprehended shoji.

Also without knowing what's going on you can feel the intensity. But shoji is a tool for the show not the crutch.

Meh, not really. It's not really a show about Shogi, more like a show with Shogi.

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Haven't watched this yet, but I loved Honey & Clover, so really glad Shaft is going all the way on this. Umino deserves her work to be realized and respected.
TEN COMMANDMENTS:
1) If Evangelion and Psycho-Pass are his only 10s, he probably also worships Tool and smells like cheesy puffs 2) Freudian psychosis =/= good writing 3) Moe blob art style is only ok in pure slice-of-life comedy 4) It's ok to enjoy shounen. Having fun is allowed 5) It is not ok to enjoy isekai (jk, it is, I just fucking hate it) 6) Creator breakdown =/= good writing 7) A story does not have to be wrapped up with a bow. Life is messy, why would a good story need to be tidy? 8) InuYasha is proto-Twilight 9) Ecchi CAN be good, but is almost always an abomination 10) If God is real, They allowed Super Kid to happen, so fuck Them

I guess we can expect a full adaptation like Honey and Clover when the manga will end.

I loved Honey and Clover, i will wait for the second season to end to binge it.
