Maybe now J.C. Staff can get off their butts and animate the rest of the novels (or at least a 4th season).

So it can be pirated by the rest of the world.

Some of us are still waiting for the last two seasons to make it to our favorite retailers.

Agree with what others have said.
Let's hope that they animated more novels!
Love the series and characters. 2nd and 3rd seasons weren't as good as the 1st, but the characters more than made up for that.

@ PetrifiedJello
I don't think the first season sold all that well tbh.
The dub was done on the cheap as well, so if it still struggled to turn a profit, then doesn't look good for future seasons...

Does it count as FUNimation "acquiring the rights" since they were distro'ing for Geneon, and it is one of the titles that went OOP when the Geneon licenses expired at the end of last year? It doesn't even show up on the search at Rightstuf anymore.

J.C.Staff butchered the 8th novel (which was very important to Louise's and Saito's character development) with the 2nd season. They compressed the entire book into the last few minutes of the anime. And then attempted to do some damage control by including Saito's part of the story in the 3rd season. It didn't really work.

I don't want to see them animate any more of it until they get a clue.

Seriously, read the books instead.

Seriously, I'm still waiting for the novels to be brought over. I was excited when Seven Seas Entertainment said they would, but they've since dropped the ball. Who knows if or when we'll finally be able to read it in the states? Sad

Here I thought another ecchi anime was greenlit when I saw the elf, but I guess she aged quite a bit since I last saw her.

Actually, it's worse. It's not even if you like breasts, that was the OVA. It's more like if you love horrible characters, horrible writing, horrible dialog, plotholes, people coming back from the dead just because, and worse. I wish it were just about breasts.

Haters gonna hate. The 2nd season's first half was pretty weak. The second half was GODLY awesome. The 3rd season was fun, but the story arc as a whole was really just a bridge into future material which ISN'T ANIMATED! PLEASE GIVE US A 4th SEASON!!!! AAAAA!!!!

Very Happy
