OK, now that is a blast from the past I didn't expect. Liked the original series, even though I don't remember much of it today, to be honest. Maybe I should rewatch it.

The first series was nicely above average so if a sequel could follow that I'd be really happy to see it.

What a surprise!
I'd definitely watch it. The first show was mostly satisfying.

High there totally out of nowhere proposed sequel to a mid 2000's anime. I do remember being slightly perturbed that the show got cancelled before it finished but then I mostly forgot about it. One aspect I do remember was the main character trying to connect with her father who didn't know she was his daughter till if I remember correctly like the last episode or so before cancellation if he ever found out she was his daughter.

In the final episode, the Great Race ended and Molly reconnected with her father. The show was meant from the beginning to run 26 episodes, it didn't get canceled.

Umm, Yes please! I love Oban and I feel a sequel could be awesome, especially if most of the original staff is all back together.

That'd sick as hell if this got a sequel, I loved the original series.

Oh really huh I could have sworn in got cancelled. Well maybe the channel I watched it on fucked with the broadcasting and I just never saw the end of the series. Or maybe I did see the finale of the series and I just forgot about it I watched the show over a decade ago.

Oban was one of the first anime series I watched, I definitely wouldn't mind a sequel.

OMG, yes please.

Man, after all these years, I can never forget how that series ended. Thinking about part of it still makes me sad (in a good way).

I hope the sequel does get made. Oban star racers is a great show and I would love to see more.
