Meh


In what regard?

If you're talking about the numbers Akame ga Kill and Rails Wars did then I agree, it was very "Meh" bordering on disappointing.

Riddle Story of Devil, on the hand... I'm glad that show flopped. The manga handled the story so much better. How could they screw up the anime that bad? I mean it wasn't a horrible show, just painfully average.

Cute girls making music & cute boys playing sports make big sales. Will we be flooded with idol anime shortly? There seems to be a new free to play idol app every week.

What on Earth is The Nightmare Before Christmas vol 12? How can one movie have 12 volumes? (Unless they made a series that never came out in America...)

Kind of sad to see Akame ga Kill doing so poorly, guess sometimes the fans just outright ignore a show.

Hmm, I really didn't think Akame ga Kill would end up faring not so great. Perhaps this is the case of having bad luck on the draw...

Sucks that Akame Ga Kill didn't manage to average 3K...for such a series, I think that number would've been considered pretty decent.

I usually try to sample a few episodes of a series before judging it, but the first episode left me so uninterested that I never bothered with episode two. Comments from a friend about the series aren't exactly hurrying me to take a second look, either. ^^

I still need to order the Free! ES Blu-ray and the K-On!! BD box (I already have the Japanese BD singles, and those from ADV). I own the Yamato 2199 series BDs, so I don't currently see a need to buy this movie (the next one's another story).
