I wonder if this may indicate that the Production Committee believes they can cover their costs without having a broadcast?

I believe so since broadcast costs are outrageous, even with just the music rights. Also, they could get away with more mature content. |

I guess Aaron's gonna be extra busy dubbing the two seasons back-to-back.

Maybe they wanted to strike while the iron was hot with the second season and didn't want to wait for a slot to open up. That or the broadcaster didn't see fit to broadcast a second season at all.

So Funimation now has at least 5 broadcast dubs confirmed for Winter 2017 (Puzzle&Dragons, Monster Hunter, All Out, Trickster, and Nanbaka). Seems like a wise decision what with how there are only 3 noteworthy winter 2017 anime that aren't licensed by Aniplex. Those three being ACCA, Akiba's Trip, and the new KyoAni show.

I hope this works out well for them and other series take this approach. This would mean that more series could and would get continuations because a lot of the time a new/next season of a show take so long to be release or even produced hinge on the schedule of the broadcast companies. This would eliminate that factor and give shows that did relatively well but not well enough to warrant a TV broadcast a fighting chance to continue.
I feel shows like Prison School, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet and Strike Blood would all have second season if they utilized this route. |

Gargantia s2 was cancelled due to certain production disagreements not due to the scheduling so there is more to it..but yeah for the other two it could work, since it might a little to provocative for them to air them. |

The thing with that is I'm certain that those problems wouldn't have arised or at least have been so prominent if the project already had a broadcast platform planned and ready. I'm not denying that those issues wouldn't have impacted the project, but at the very least, some of the pressure would have been revealed creating a less stressful environment in turn giving the project more wiggle room. That is why I hope this pans out for them, because if it does than more productions wouldn't have to drag their feet if they wanted to continue a story. Like Konosuba would probably have already aired by now if it didn't decide to air on TV. But that is a bad example because it is only getting a second season because it did very well and that success is arguably due to it being broadcasted on TV. Don't get me wrong, shows like A Certain franchise (Index, Railgun) will have outside issues that keep it from producing more material and sometimes even successful shows like Overload or Danmachi don't get sequel even though their sales warrant them just because. Those issues will still persist. What I'm hoping for is shows that are teetering on making a second season or not, this could be the push they need to go ahead and make it happen. Those kind of show are the ones I'm talking about. Also, this shows that the Japanese productions committee sees and undersands the value the national market that is online has and considers it's potential as something worth tapping into. If this endeavor proves worth while, we can see more anime getting complete stories instead of a "good point to stop in the story" ending and "go read the manga" ending. |
