Like Takeo and Yamato wouldn't totally try and set up Suna on dates and stuff all the time just so they can double date and stuff

The second one really needs one of Suna's trademark head-captions going 'It's hot.'

we both died laughing when Yamato found out Takeo wanted to wait three years.
Well a year and 3/4, heh. Third year is just two years off, and they've been dating for six months.

Help help, please run out and buy more BDs, this show is selling so poorly it makes even Space Dandy look like a box office hit.

That sucks but the chance of me buying overpriced Japanese blurays in language I can't understand and can't even actually play is pretty slim.

I'll buy the hell out of them if they actually get released here though.

At least the manga's doing quite well for itself. Could always pull a Chihayafuru.

Chihayafuru BDs outsold Oremonogatari BDs by about 500%...

I mean in the sense that it served its purpose, as an ad for the manga.

Also this, yeah.

Even if the BDs do poorly there's always merch and manga sales.

Vote shit sandwich or the shit sandwich gets it!
The latest episode hit me really bad. My mom was hospitalized years ago, when I was about Takeo's age, and my reaction was pretty much the same "holy poo poo what do I do what do I do" that Takeo had. I remember being utterly terrified that my mom could die, since it happened unexpectedly and she'd always been super strong before that :smith:

(No worries, my mom's fine now.)

Darkgray, between this and Rokka you're becoming a real bummer. Please stop exposing me to the harsh business realities of the anime industry.

I mean, you're still ahead of the game based on the rad insights you've given in the Overlord thread, but just give me some good news! What's selling like hotcakes from this summer anime season, by the way? I'll just become a fan of that and everything will be solved.

Just guessing, but I hope you like Monster Musume and other fanservice-fests.

I too wish this would sell better than it is. It's such a good series that it deserves it.

The anime might not be selling all that well but the manga is doing quite well for itself.

Most recent sales data I can find is that the most recent volume has managed to sell over 350k.

Episode was great but if that ending was an indication of the final arc for the anime that's gonna be pretty cool, maybe.

This episode was fantastic and despite the whole show being upbeat it still ended up being something of an emotional roller coaster.

I actually started to doubt whether Yamato was going to give Takeo any special chocolates even thought it's Yamato and she obviously was going to and the show had spent scenes showing her thinking about what chocolate to make for him
