Then again, it could just be the crazies that take the time and effort to comment there.

The scoring on MAL, on the other hand, looks a little more sane and has a lot more data points to work with. The score is still to high for my faith in humanity but it has been on a slow decline and isn't scoring amazingly well.

In comparison, No Life No Game seems to have been the best received and best scored show of the season.

Even Jojo is doing better with a better score and ranking and a lower drop rate despite (depressingly) lower viewership.

So while it's not nearly as polarizing as I would have hoped, at least it's not doing great. :shobon:

Doesn't MAL work with the IGN 7=Average scale? But yeah calling Mahouka above average is way too loving generous.

The first volume of the BD release is out, and it managed to sell over 10,000 copies in its first week, so I think we're on for more seasons!!

I always thought if LN sales had a massive improvement after the anime, LN adaptations would never get another season regardless of BD sales. IIRC that's why Haruhi and Spice and Wolf never got Season 3's. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I think 2000 is the break-even "we'll consider making more" number. But yeah its 2000 bluray copies usually, that have like 2 episodes a piece, and they would have to be pants on head retarded not to continue bank rolling it for the cash, unless one of them poo poo cans it because he realises how awful it is He likes money more

I thought if the publisher feels novel sales are satisfactory they won't bother greenlighting another season. It's why Spice and Wolf and Haruhi don't have a Season 3.

How about we just make him fight someone else who never loses to the death? I nominate John Cena.
