Haifuri OVA has been set for May 24th release. http://yarao

>1 whole year for a OVA
>not new 12-episode anime
What is IMS doing?

Did people actually like this show after the dumb hamsters?

Did it even sell?
Stopped following the threads mid season and just finished it months later.

>>153450355
9,236 vol 1
8,329 vol 2
8,068 vol 3
7,326 vol 4
7,174 vol 5
7,212 vol 6

>>153450355
Sales matter less than extra signups for the MSDF.

>>153450340
Honestly? Yes i enjoyed it despite the dumb hamster plot, mostly because the crew had some fun interactions.

That bieng said i wish most of the seconday characters were more fleshed out but what can you do with a big cast like that and only 13 episodes.

Yes, everyone who wasn't a retarded edgelord did.

The ship battles were fun

What is the OVA even about?
Saving private Blahaj from deep sea?

>ova about salvaging Harekaze
Would watch

my main issue was the captain that kept leaving the ship and abandoning the crew

>>153450340
more than most other cute girls do military things yes

>>153451413
>Hurr durr! not liking shit means you hate fun!

>>153450340
Not really. I was expecting desperate cat-and-mouse play with dramatic reveal that Captain Mike was setup by the school or something but instead got cgdct that wasn't even that good.

>>153450340

It was one of the best selling shows of it's season and merch sold really good.

>>153450340
Yes, it was dumb but it didn't feel off for me because I wasn't expecting the show to go as dark as people wanted it to early on.
And neat, can't wait for the OVA. I'm afraid of asking for a second season though because I don't think they have figured out how to get carbon-coated ships for GuP-style team battles yet and even more hamsters would be weird.

>>153450340
I don't care about the hamsters at this point. It was just a dumb plot device to have the Harekaze fight other ships. And the confrontations were hype.
But it's definitely a retarded thing that dragged down the anime overall.

>>153452605
Kancolle anime was also one of the best selling shows of it's season, what's your point?

Do you know what the Haifuris are? Fertile.

>>153453140
Kancolle allready had an established fanbase though so i don't know what your point is.

>>153453140

Kancolle was a giant franchise. This was anime original series that came out of nowhere.

And Kancolle got more anime so what's your point?

>>153451805
Mike's alcoholism and decent into darkness after the loss of her ship.

Hamsters could have been fine as a threat. Systematically undoing every bit of tension the opening set up was what made it bad.

trash girl was a shit and needed to be thrown overboard

The ship's constant problems with hygiene were amusing. What are they going to run out of in the OVA?

Contraceptives

>>153450340
It was more than enough to introduce sense of danger than to make it full grimderp that contrasts too much with CGDCT

Remember when zombie apocalypse is nigh, buy a cat

>>153453393
Haifuri wanted the Kancolle audience though so there was already an estabilished audience for that kind of show, especially after the success of GuP

I'm not sure a conspiracy-type plot would've been any less ridiculous.

I wasn't a fan of the hamsters, no one was, but they didn't ruin the show for me either.

ASSEMBLE!

>>153459486
Why

>>153450340
I just wonder how they mutated. Also why the Tokyo tower exists if Japan has been underwater for decades.

>>153454345
Planes don't exist but airships do. Also it means we could get a spinoff about cute girls inventing the airplane.

>>153451805

Unless plans have changed, it's supposedly centered on Coco.

>>153461289
I'm more than okay with this.

it did have some pretty good action scenes, but they predictably used CGI for boats and water, so they probably had a lot of budget left for the rest.

Also, they re-used some of the animation multiple times, e.g. this one

Biggest version I've found.

>>153466286
I guess they still need more money. Maybe that's why they've been away for one year and they're only making 2 episodes of an already aired series that sold well.

>>153461911
First part of the ova is also airing on March 31st.

>>153466468
Oh I just read that. It's airing on tv before releasing it in bd form. There's nothing on when the second OVA airs though.

>>153466468
>>153466525
I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing this as a way to announce season 2 after it airs.

>>153466286
Nothing else fits TORIKAJI IPPAI better than that, though.

>>153450340
Why do you all hate hamsters so much?
What else did you expect, some serious plot?
