DVD Sales Decide Length of The World God Only Knows TV Series
ryohayate2409sa: @angelfrench Is it one season long?
Wakaki: It's up to the reactions. I wonder how many episodes it will take until we see Tenri.
DiceKatKobe: @angelfrench What do you mean by "reactions"? Should we send emails to the TV company?
Wakaki: Frankly, the sales of the DVD determine everything.
Wakaki is anxious about the poor environment of the anime creators. "In the case of manga, the author can improve the quality of the work and make money by his/her private effort, but anime creators' efforts never pay.", he said. "I've learned how hard the anime production is, so I'm seriously thinking about how to sell it."

It's a real shame because this series would be the perfect anime. It's just so fucking funny so it's just sad to see it getting cut down to be something like a 12 episode series.
Oh well, better than nothing i guess.

Life's ain't fair. Why anime like One Piece gets 460+ episodes and still ongoing when anime like TWGOK length is decided by the DVD sales?
Don't get me wrong, I like One Piece. But it simply ain't fair.
Are you serious? It's obvious that One Piece is still ongoing because it's popular. It's the same with any other anime. If something is really popular, they will continue it as long as they can earn money. It will be the same with TWGOK, if the DVD sales are good (=popular), the anime will go on.

What a sly business tactic. Still I would like them to adapt all the manga but if they start making crappy filler then screw that.
Whether I am happy or not about this depends on how well they adapt the manga.
Everyone who calls this will going to be overrated can go to hell. This shit is awesome; Otamegane's so moe so even someone who's straight as I am would want to go gay for him. AND FIRETRUCKS
I was talking in the long run. TWGOK looks like the kind of thing that would be popular in japan. Unlikely, I know but let me dream.
Oh, yeah...Sora's episode. I don't know how they could stretch that into an episode but hell we need it! I would love to see the latest arc animated. It's one of the best arcs in the manga yet. But it's not going to happen....sadly.
AND HELL YEAH, FIRETRUCKS!

Because unlike others anime, One Piece is popular, is not hard to understand.

to people who can buy it
PLEASE BUY IT , i BEG YOU
YOU can buy it. Even if you don't live in Japan there are a nifty little thing called importation.
i have the majpr problem call not have a JOBinous and chronic lack of founds
Even with a job and sufficient funds, there are very few on this forum that would buy it seeing how japanese dvds/blu-rays go for about $50 for 2 episodes. I was merely highlighting that it is possible for him to buy it and that I think he should if he urges other people to do so. Otherwise it's just being a hypocrite.

For Example: Selling two episodes for $50 is wayyyyy too high. They won't be able to even compete with the other market because no one will have the incentive to buy two episodes for $50. If you can buy a series of an anime show in America for what, $10 - $50, who the hell in their right mind would buy a whole whopping two episodes for $50. :| If they want customers, they better go down on their prices, otherwise, they'll end up losing to their competition. $5 - $10 for two episodes sounds much more reasonable than $50. Of course, if some of us are filthy rich (Which I highly doubt :| ) then what's going to happen is that everyone is going to see this series fall short.
Also, I'd advise these anime industries to get either new marketers or business managers :\
