Really? It's pretty clear it was meant to be a longer show. At the start they talk about making an animated feature together and they haven't yet!

I think the reason there's been a wait for season two is that the director wasn't available, if he is now it's fairly likely that they'll make something.

The rumor way back when was that three seasons were envisioned, with Miyamori ending up as a producer.

I don’t know if they ever got to the storyboard stage or anything though.
True, there is stuff they could do! I think Season 2 ends with them getting new IPs too? But I dunno! I wasn't fiending for more, I liked it being this brief window we got into their lives that finally had a happy resolution. So much of it was about realistic expectations from the voice actor trying to find roles to the CGI artist trying to find any stimulating work. The series even starts with none of them being happy where they are, so I'm happy with it being a Maybe They Will All Work Together....Or Not! I would absolutely watch more, but also I'm content not to

I hear you. For me, it was a 10 out of 10 series, and it ended well, so I don't think it needs more, necessarily... but if the team has good ideas and wants to make I will 100% watch it.

s/o to the peeps who followed the scanlation until it was abandoned literally because trump was elected, maybe this will take some of the sting out of that

hopefully it gets a better budget than ushio and tora.

Eh, sometimes it's more time constraints or piss-poor planning than budget. Like, how long had KyoAni been working on Violet Evergarden, Netflix-gravy train or not? Most of 2017 at the very least?

og boogiepop is good because it was directed by the guy who directed the ball episode of utena and literally everything that guy does has an episode that is just the ball episode of utena

Boogiepop Phantom is showing the aftereffects of the actual plot, which is an... interesting choice. I really enjoyed it back in the day.

I'm wondering who the target audience is, though, since the last novel was published almost a decade ago.

boogiepop was in the dengeki fighting game and they're launching two new manga series to promote this anime, so i think there's hope for a current audience.

I think she's a fantastic voice actress and with her fairly good range, I know that she'll keep on providing us with a ton of rad performances. I just hope that it's not like 2010-2013 where things felt very homogenized as far as lead VA's go.
