| @deg https://myanimelist.net/anime/49233/Youjo_Senki_II There is 😅 |
| What ? A fish your worries away story ? |
 |
| An original anime that is not an all-female or all-male advertisement for some game or an adaptation of a non-existent CGDCT manga or a clone of Licorice Recall? This is almost revolutionary in this day and age. |

| @Sphealz it was announced way back in 2021 and its 2024 already dude lol |
Reply to RobertBobert
@deg Well, we’re talking about the announcement of a completely new show, and not any information on already announced projects.
| @RobertBobert the director of this new show is the director of the announced old project i just said |

| @deg This is his second show in the last 3-4 years, so maybe the guy is not having the best time right now. |

| @RobertBobert does not matter they prioritize other new shows instead of the old announce one |

NUT explicitly stated that they wanted to work on two original anime before doing Youjo Senki II, and they already did Deca-Dence as the first one (I don't think Bullbuster counts).
| @Sleabedybarb source for that? and bullbuster is an original anime |
| nah either something is going on with the licensing for Youjo Senki or they are trying to perfect it like Pluto and Uzumaki. Otherwise, nothing that takes this long can have a good end. no healthy production schedule takes this long. and the hopes for a s3 seem dead before s2 |

Reply to Sleabedybarb
@deg pretty sure they put out a statement after the Youjo Senki movie to that effect
and Bullbuster is technically a media-mix project.
and Bullbuster is technically a media-mix project.
| @Sleabedybarb dude technically all original anime are multimedia franchises scratch that all anime too especially popular ones |
The designs actually resemble her style this time.  |
| idk if I'll watch this. |
 |
| Yeah, still no information on Youjo senki is indeed baffling. Btw, teaser looks as weird as the name of this series xD |

| Kadokawa : a multibillion yen company that controls many studios and publish so many stories and stories that are waiting for anime sequels, ignores all these stories and makes a story about ..... fishing . What the hell is wrong with the anime industry these days |

| @Yubisoft Yes, because the idea to make this anime came directly from the kadokawa, lol. |

| @Yubisoft One original fishing anime instead of another sequel or remake of an old show is that much of a bait for you to complain about the lack of sequels? |
|
| Sounds like that healing/drama type of story, plus an original.. I'm keeping my eyes on this. |

If only you spent more time reading manga (in this case, Kadokawa manga etc) so you could understand my concern instead of spending way too much time on writing random things on the internet about people you don't know personally and don't even attempt to understand..... |

| @Yubisoft What I totally can understand is that the lack of sequels is one of the least real problems in the industry today. |
|
| ITT: Dumbasses trying to sound smart by posting off-topic nonsense like "problems in the industry". Here's the cold, hard truth: you're not an expert, you know nothing about "the industry". You're merely confusing "my opinions" with "facts". Back on topic, the last time I watched an anime about fishing was a lot of fun. Definitely gonna check this one out. |
| there's a game where mc catch waifus. the game's anime adaptation would at least top this show for sure but i can see the beautiful artwork in showing these fishes. for those who sleep with the fishes. |
| Looks really cool to be fair. I like the animation style, though the premise is silly. Judging by the staff it is in safe hands as well. Will have to check it out when it aries. |
