Is Keijo popular in Japan? Is there any chance of 2nd season happening?

Keijo is the best anime I watched in a long time.

It was bredy good. Fun and it didn't take itself seriously. Nothing special tho imo.

Stop living under a rock anon. It flopped hard.

No Japan has shit taste. Just check out the manga.

I wanna impregnate Nozomi.

Which is a shame, since it was genuinely fun. The "combat" was unbelievably bananas, and thankfully it just let that absurdity rock, rather than take itself too seriously.
Last ep might have been kicked out the door and visual direction might not have been kino-material, but it looked very nice. Vibrant, bright color palette, not too much QUALITY, solid movement and camerawork.
I can't speak to much else, but the whole thing really was nice ride.
Also, the interesting female characters who were cute and sexy without being just moe archetypes were nice. And with that, I'll be waiting for my /pol/ and tumblr unified crucifixion if you need me.

could've gotten a season 2 if they animated nipple versus nipple combat in blu ray

Considering the anime ended in a way that skipped over a a somewhat big plot point in the manga, unlikely.
>>
>>152223562
it sold 715 copies
FTFY

What a fucking failure.

That's crazy considering all the marketing and cross promotions leading up to it too.

Source? I thought it was 2K.

>>152221136
It was popular in the West, but it flopped hard in Japan.

HAHAHAHAHA THE ANIME ADAPTATION WAS SUCKS SO HARD THAT EVEN CAN SUCK A DICK.

>skipping first 35 chapters
>no major introduction

>turns into a shitty fanservice show
>>
>>152221136
did you watch flip flappers?
>>
>>152229905
Look on ANN or whatever news website that tracks sales Tuesday the week after it came out. It sold 715 first week and added like 150ish the second week. The second volume didn't rank.
>>
>>152230499
Yeah.

Still, keijo is far better than some artsy overrated anime that some /a/utists are trying to force.
>>
>>152221136
Premise had promise, but it prioritized butts over boobs. Big mistake.
>>
>>152230499
to be honest flip flappers is overhyped as well

A minor fix, keijo!!!!!!!! remains as a huge flop. Still, one of the best anime of this year.

I don't think that the beach-kun rehabilitation arc is unskippable; even in Nozomi's match vs. Miyata-chan, there are two ways that one part can be handled: no beach-kuns falling (just some vague explanation from Nozomi about how her attack works, which had precedents in S1), or some flashback sequences (or even just Nozomi's beach-kun nightmare that happens while she's losing a lot at the beginning of the season)
>>
>>152228415
715 BDs/145 DVDs on the launch week

with only 12 episodes and needing a good ending point, there was no way around starting the adaptation in a later point, else the adaptation would either need an earlier ending point (for example, the class exchange arc, which we can all agree wouldn't be as satisfying) or an even greater adaptation compression.

Occultic did better then I expected. I'm also surprised people watched Bungou since I never met a single other person who was

someone needs to make video edits of Kotone listening to YoI, and Viktor watching Kotone on the first episode. Bonus points if the video edit loops itself.

Honestly I'm really surprised at just how poorly Girlish Number did. I mean some time after its premiere it was obvious it wasn't going to sell well but I never expected it to do almost sub-1k. Keijo was also a surprise: it seemed to have gotten a lot of hype (at least in the West), and I kind of expected it to do at least 2k.
>>
>>152235292
Girlish number has nothing going for it

Keijo is a meme anime. Only reason its popular in the west is because of the negative reviews it received from sites
Which made it go viral
>>
>>152235341
>Only reason its popular in the west is because of the negative reviews it received from sites
Right, and I suppose you were the top contributor

>Only reason its popular in the west is because of the negative reviews it received from sites
Then why does Somekindofthing love it so much? Also, is he cursed? It seems like almost every show he likes flops: Flip Flappers (his GAOAT) bombed harder than Hiroshima, while his ex-GOAT (Sakura Trick) also flopped.

there was hype for the anime since the adaptation was announced in February, at least from the fans of the manga. Then it was said that the anime was going to have 12 episodes, and the hype went a bit/a lot down due to the fans not expecting the anime to adapt the East/West war arc. Then it was said that the anime was going to start at volume 4, then the manga fans confirmed that the East/West war arc was going to be adapted because of the OP.

Besides the possibility of japanese otaku not liking the anime (and/or the manga), there are also other possibilities that could explain the low sales: The author and the manga/anime aren't well known in Japan (the manga started serialization in 2013, and it's the author's second work), the otaku might be waiting for a promotion or for the prices of BDs/DVDs to drop while prioritizing other series/hobbies, and the otaku might've not been able to get the characters' personalities as well in the anime as they could in the manga (which takes a while to read). Consider that the manga (the source material) is run on a shonen magazine (Weekly Shonen Sunday), whose demographic, I think, doesn't overlap well with the ones that buys BDs/DVDs (which are considered expensive even by the otaku); hopefully the cheaper means of revenue (non-expensive merch, streaming subscriptions, manga physical/digital sales) can meet or surpass the production committee's expectations and sooner or later convince it to make more seasons of Keijo. And hopefully the studio (Xebec) eventually sells enough BDs/DVDs to accept doing more seasons as well. With the production committee backing it, we don't know how many BDs/DVDs actually need to be sold. (or if Xebec really didn't take part of the production committee, being only hired to produce the anime and thus doesn't get revenue from means other than BD/DVD sales)

I thought it's because he's a huge yurifag and will praise any show no matter how bad as long as it has yuri.
>>
>>152232054
What do these sales numbers exactly reflect? In what amount of time? These all seem really low no matter what I come up with.
>>
>>152235988
Thats what i said
>>
>>152235998
the first week sales of these anime's first volume (Keijo's was stated to have sold 715 BDs and 145 DVDs, thus totalling 860) according to the Oricon ranking (which doesn't consider sources that aren't related to Amazon).
>>
>>152236272
Huh, Blu Rays must have a huge markup if 10k sold in a week is a big winner. Especially comparing that number to videogame copies sold in a week or movie tickets sold.
>>
>>152236598
>Blu Rays must have a huge markup
How new are you?
>>
>>152236598
Buying a 13 episode season of anime BDs costs, on average, around $400.
>>
>>152235922
Shogakukan isn't on the committee, so manga sales are irrelevant.
WB has top billing, with Xebec third. They were almost certainly banking on BD sales to be a primary source of income.
Though, streaming is now a huge source of income, and one that we don't have good public numbers for, so it could turn out not to matter that much.
>>
>>152238107
I remember Keijo getting a lot of views across the States and Europe
At least according to Crunchyroll

What the fuck is wrong with you?

I think that people on /a/ overrate it because the premise is interesting enough to garner popularity.

For me it had three main flaws that killed it.

The action visuals are nice but the battle soundtrack was bland and not exciting. A soundtrack like sweaty ping pong girls or Ben-to would have been better.

The scenes outside of battles are plain boring.

And lastly the tourney arc was too predictable. Just looking at the team lineups it was obvious what the outcome was gonna be. This removed all tension from the fights.

Overall i feel like this show is just a worse ping pong girls. That show had better action, music and characters that the viewer actually cared about. Even though they both follow the same storyline.
