Natsume

So that would be like five seasons? It must really do well.

>>135950361
I think it was actually an event announcement or something and someone just spouted bullshit without even trying to translate the page.
>>135950577
It deserves a S5 but we'll never get it.

It has a stage booked for Anime Japan so some kind of announcement is expected.

>>135951156
>>135951279
>>135951330
Each season covered like three volumes of the manga, so there's 8 volumes to catch up to. Don't lose hope yet.

>>135950361
I don't believe it, because it'd mean that something right happened in the world.

>>135951279
How is it a healing show with all those loud yokai and shit?

>>135951639
the yokai are loud but it's full of beautiful little stories and the healing factor for me came with the slow but constant personal growth of Natsume from an outcast to a happy person. Kamiya's soothing voice helped also

>>135951875

Feels weird not hearing Hiroshi's "Nyanko-sensei" or "AHO!" though

>>135952679
There's still a possibility, can't wait for the studio to finish Durarara but they might swap to some other series before Natsume, depending on sales.

>>135952711
It's a fujoshit show of course fujos will be around.

>>135960800
If you read the manga you know it's not going to happen.

>>135960634
With Natsume using the book of friends to fight against the Matoba. Then it becomes more popular than ever as a generic battle shounen and receives a never ending anime adaptation from Pierrot. Natsume Yuujinchou would then take Naruto's place and join One Piece and Bleach in the Big Three.

>>135962749
Natsume is super special in the manga, not that he isn't in the anime but they play it down and change his hair and eye colour so he doesn't stand out as much from others like in the manga. In a fairly recent chapter he found out besides his grandmother having powers, there's another male that looks like him from a dragon yokai which he thinks is his grandfather. So he could be more than the reincarnation of Reiko like previously speculated.

Can't blame you, episode three with the class rep getting so much focus made my sister lose interest in watching the show.

Natsume a cute!

>>135980626
Not really, it part of who or what he is. He's suppose to stand out because he isn't a normal human and he looks different. The anime made him look normal.

Why does this do so well? I watched the first 6 or so episodes and just came out feeling drained and bored. It's not a bad series, I'm not trying to troll; but doesn't the schtick get incredibly old by S4?

The director must be poor at this rate because of Samurai Flopmenco so I hope he makes another season.

>>135980403
BrainsBase workers actually likes Natsume, and they fully welcomed the mangaka into their studios all the time. That's why it's so good; a full time cooperation between the original author and the studio. Probably the reason they decided to make a short movie of another manga by the same artist (Hotarubi no Mori E)

>>135983087
If you don't like calming, episodic shows with positive or bittersweet endings then it's just not for you. There's a lot of character development throught all the seasons, but since they're slow placed I can see some people getting frustrated with it, I find it more believable than most shows.

>>135983428
Well, I like Non Non Biyori and similar shows, so I expected to like this.

>>135978524
Because he'd look out of place from everyone in the anime. He also looks more like Reiko like this so youkai mistaking him for her makes more sense.

That's the point, he doesn't fit into the normal world and Reiko also has sliver hair and green eyes in the manga.

I guess that they just wanted him to look more generic. That brown is my favorite hair color on characters so I'm pretty biased when I say I like it.
