Sports anime don't tend to do the whole harem thing which makes hype indicators a little less skewed. People seem more willing to just take the anime for what it is instead of blowing smoke out their ass for it's quality. Never watched a sports anime of a sport I play or enjoy. They mainly all American sports or weird Jap stuff.

Japan needs to get off their asses and make a handball anime tbh.

Make it women's handball and fill it with yuri for all i care, just give me a handball anime god damnit. Handball is a great spectator sport and it could easily make a great anime.
Would also give me more sports anime i want to watch, so that'd be nice. Looking forward to yowamushi pedal's third season for that reason.

There just needs to be more high octane women's sports anime tbh. Need symphogear levels of hype but in a sports anime. Physical sports as well. Only one I can think of is Girls Und Panzer. Nothing more physical than squads of girls in tanks ramping off walls and blowing the hell out of the enemy.

Why am I not surprised that it still looks like garbage? I suppose it isn't a budget reason, and for whatever reason, they just got people without any talent to animate it. Again.

I mean that's just 3 minutes of voice-over for scenes from season 1 + annoucement of the date, OP, ED etc.
Plus a single key visual (which arguably doesn't look a lot different than s1)

It's DEAN right? Sure it'll still look like garbage. Think I only watched 2 eps of the BD and it was a bit too intensely bad for me.

I wonder if they doubled down on it. Like.. picture this: They were too stupid to realize it's going to sell like crazy despite the LNs being fairly popular and all, so that's why they only got 10 episodes and had to cut stuff out.
Also for the same reason super shitty animators because "meh, this won't sell anyways" while shouwa genroku got all the eyecandy.
Suddenly (for them), really well received, they're like "wait what? Really?" and announce s2. But at that point they're scared that changing the look of it might turn people off, just think of OreGairu, so they're just doing it once again...

I wish they had dropped DEEN to give it a new look but oh well...

I mean it didn't sell like crazy, it had good sales tho, but i wouldn't really call them 'crazy'.

10k+ average is good though, for sure. But it's still far from the big sellers that reach 20, 30 or even 40k+.

Sure it's not super out there like the really big sellers but 10k+ is really good, especially considering how the rest of the season has been going.
Quick google said that makes it 5th best selling thing in 2016, a year in which LoveLive and Monogatari was airing

But, if we call 10k+ sales crazy then what should we use to describe lovelive selling 70k+?
And I mean, this year as a whole has been pretty weak sales wise outside of a few big sellers like lovelive, if you compared it with 2015 it'd be all the way down to an 11th or 12th place saleswise.

So being 5th best this year doesn't really mean that much tbh. + i could easily see some of the fall shows outselling it too, like haikyuu.

Though if konosuba doesn't improve its animation at all i'm not really sure i'm gonna bother with a second season, first season had some scenes that looked so fucking jarring tbh. And what's the fucking point of a visual medium if the visuals are pure garbage.

Weird, looks like kyoani upped the bust-size of the dragon maid

Didn't expect that from kyoani.

Gotta wonder if they'll leave in all of the fanservice though, or if that's getting cut.

Something about that pic...I don't know but it seems like since they animitized her face seems she lost a good chunk of personality.

I see what you mean.

Still anime images are generally worse off than manga so that's rather normal. It's really all the small things from motion/sounds that make up for it. Kyoani did have some niice ass in Amagi so maybe they are comfortable doing a little fan service every now and then. I know that's my only hope left in life. Please Kyoani. Do it for Hibike. Do it for life. Do it for love.
