It just doesn't make sense, TWGOK is a popular series with a SHIT LOAD of material.

(The manga is almost at 150 chapters, and it's still going!!!)

However, up until episode 10, the anime is around chapter 40, there's more than 100 chapters of material.

I don't understand why it's only 12 episodes, a series like this should've received a 24 or 26 episode season.

Because it's a lot safer to keep things as 12 episode seasons.

If it sells well then they can negotiate a third season.

Same thing happened for second season.

Those aren't wildcard numbers. The Japanese just have a tendency to list their sales with abundant asterisks.

The reason why they don't sell well is because the Japanese have strong brand loyalty, and Manglobe is a weak brand. Those sales actually make it their best-selling anime since Champloo.

Michiko to Hacchin and Saraiya Goyou flopped badly, and while Seikan no Blacksmith sold slightly better than those, it still only got about half of Kami Nomi's sales.

Here's hoping for a season 3 announcement.

This is an anime that deserves much more than it gets.

i definitively agree that this anime deserves so much more.

I can say that there is huge possibility of season 3 in TWGOK why?
watch the trailer for season 2, there you will see Tsukiyo at the ending.
for the season 2 episode 12 I don't think Tsukiyo arc can cover the entire episode I think it will be at least 2 episode for the capture.

They just wanna go on a slow pace, just in case if something went wrong, they won't loss too much of the investment, It's a safe way to go.

PLUS!!! Guys! Wouldn't this be more better? I mean, now the second season ended at 12 episodes ( Which i don't like it either... ), Wakaki have more time to publish his chapters on manga, and maybe when the goddess arc almost near the end, then the anime can wrap up every latest arc which will be following closely to the manga itself!

Don't think of it as a bad thing, from what i heard from you guys comments, it seems like the economy of the company that is animating TWGOK series wasn't going so well, as every sales of their work doesn't go so well, so maybe they wanna go for a safer way, to determine whether TWGOK is worth for a long shot.

So Don't Give Up Your Hope! As Long As TWGOK Series Still popular, There Will Be An Anime Adaptation for It!

If you want another season so badly, then you should either buy the blurays yourself and hope one extra copy can tip the scales, or somehow change the tastes of Japanese otaku. Both seem like lost causes.

I'd love to see another season too, but hey, that's business. Hopefully season 2 sees an improvement in sales so that it can happen.
If any of my posts seem odd, it's probably because I'm tired. Sorry. I have sleeping issues.

I'm sure there will be more. Japan is obsessed with these 12-13 episode seasons as of late.

Am I the only one that think 12 ep seasons are the best when the actual manga is ongoing? That way, instead of getting fillers like certain animes, we simply get these kinda brakes and that way the anime isn't ruined and we get to have a good quality anime.

This season's pace is really good, ending with 12 episodes might just be a good choice. Just hope for another season with Tsukiyo and those hints xD

I don't get how you're getting ripped off, lol.

Besides, the season finale hints at a third season.

I've seen "hints" in other anime that NEVER got sequels, just because they COCK TEASE the audience doesn't mean it's going to happen.

I feel ripped off because there is still a possibility that we DON'T get another season, or that we have to wait a long time before a third season is made.

Either way 24 or 26 episodes would've made more sense.

I fail to understand your logic. You haven't been ripped off in any way. In fact, it's probably the reverse since you watched the series for free and didn't provide any form of financial benefit to the studio that produced it.

Moreover, the second season had just finished. It's almost as if you've been waiting for a long time when really you haven't. There's still an OVA coming so look forward to that. Perhaps a third season will be announced after it has been released.

I understand that you enjoyed the series and know full well that the anime adaptation could have been extended, but I feel you're out of place for feeling that you've been ripped off.

Anime studios adapt anime from manga if they can expect to attain a certain amount of financial benefit from doing it. They don't exist to solely please the fans. It's always profit first.

The comparatively medium pace is justified and a 12 episode season is fin as well, just that there is so much in the manga I feel a little 'un-satisfied'. Hope the 3rd season will be out soon.

I think 12 episodes is just right. The bigger rip off would be Mangolbe ending the series at the OVAs and giving up on it.
