Hope it get's some attention now because the only reason it even made first place was because of one person that goes by the name of F-Man gave a 1,000 dollars and many other people on this forum : astroboy-online.com including me made a team effort to make it happen if it weren't for that it may still have been around 500 or less

On Kickstarter, there's always a big push immediately following the goal being met. Unfortunately that can't happen for this. The option to continue to donate is gone now that it reached its goal, and funding for set 2 is not up yet.
Anime Sols announced the success with this message:
I'm sure that last part was added for humor, but it doesn't exactly fill you with the most confidence about this operation. It also indicates that it may be some time before we get these episodes. This is the first Anime Sols project I've supported, and I definitely donated more than I would have liked to have payed for streaming 13 episodes. I kinda chipped that much in with the hopes that this would gain momentum and that I wouldn't have to pay as much for the next 13, but I'm not sure... |

Now to see if the supporters shift their attention to Wonder 3, the other big Tezuka show on the site. It's already the most supported show, though it still needs a lot of pledges.

It has nine supporters. spoiler[That ties it for second place.] Oh, but I guess you meant by money. |

Money-wise, yeah. It's currently at $304 / $2,700. The only other show to come close is Gordian, which is at $295 / $2,700 despite being added what, two months before Wonder 3? |

Have to voice some disappointment that Set 2's goal isn't up yet. It could have gotten a bit of a head start thanks to news articles like this one attracting attention.
Hopefully the update about finding the scripts for the next cour means that they're also planning to release 3 episodes of Set 2 like they did Set 1, but even so I can't help but be disappointed this wasn't done in advance so they could've had Set 2 up right now. |

I wonder if 10 more episodes will attract more support. The average pledge was $50 but the figure's thrown way off by the guy who gave $1000. Personally I think $50 to get to a stream is a bit steep, but it might just be the facts for a niche-within-a-niche thing like this.
Anime Sols seems to run on a shoestring so maybe they didn't risk wasting any time and money, although it has left them a bit slow right now as you point out. |

Looking at the total pledges for all these shows, I can't help but think Anime Sols would've been better off taking pledges for each individual episode rather than for bulks of 13.

I might pledge for more stuff, if they could get me the stuff for the (already-paid) pledges I made. At the rate they're going, I'll have to put "delivery of Mami sets 3 and 4" in my will.
