Thermae Romae is so weird, I love that it's doing well.

And yet it's adaptation is so half-assed...

Because it isn't a very profitable subject. No high school girls or battle tournaments. I'm surprised it got an adaptation at all.

Spoiler alert @ synopsis.

I'd better check out Thermae Romae anime since the manga seems to sell well. Though only 3 eps? Wat?
Also, some of the titles there are the ones getting an anime. Uchuu Kyoudai, Jourmungand, InuxBoku, Danshi Koukosei. Will also check those.
And anime seems to have boosted LN sales. Ben-to, ItsuTen and Hidan no Aria. Latter two's anime though was bad.

Thermae Romae~ I need to read Principal sometime too
