When was the last good Anime that wasn't an adaptation of something else? Why are they so rare?

Lazy, or sometimes studios don't have writers or it's sometimes just for money.

This season.
> Why are they so rare?
Because like 70-80% of anime are adaptations to begin with?
This is a dumb thread.
Little Witch Academia isn't.

>Why are good originals so rare
Because Anime writers are talentless hacks, in the majority of cases they aren't even cabaple to adapt LN's properly.
>When was the last good original
This season Re: CREATORS, but it is written by Rei Hiroe(Manga author).,
>>155934834

Doesn't make it less good.
Because studios rarely pick up shows that aren't guaranteed to turn a profit. An adaptation of a manga series popular enough to warrant an adaptation already has a fanbase.

Creating anime requires money, much more than publishing a manga or LN. Most chinese cartoons are just advertisements for source material and merch that already looks somewhat promising.
If you're making an original anime, you and your investors are betting quite a lot of money on an unproven idea without any existing fanbase or recognition, making it a high risk. It's much safer to start with some cheaper medium.
The advantage anime originals have is the ability to tell whole story with a proper pacing, since they don't have to deal with indefinite series length like manga and LNs. If CG or Madoka started as manga, they would probably be dragged into oblivion, completely ruining the story. But since otaku care more about cute girls than quality of writing, it's just a nice side effect, not a main reason to animate original stories.

Isn't that based on a psp game?

Based on the game series, but it isn't an adaptation by any means. There are meaningless cameos and the striping gimmick, but other than that, the anime is completely unrelated to the games.
