I had a feeling that it will get another adaptation, but not another 25-ep one.

Although I'd imagine the ratings probably determine how much of a budget the network gets and what shows remain on air, NHK, to my knowledge, is not an ad supported network. Rather, they get government funding, if I'm correct. Someone out there might have a more detailed explanation how their system works. Either way, I'd imagine the ratings were good enough to continue the series going. Plus, I'd imagine there are other factors at work here. |

It's NHK, so disc sales barely matter... and MAN am I happy about that! As a fan, I'm extremely excited, especially with these new characters appearing.

Whoops, sorry I meant advertising as in marketing/merchandise? Not the money tv channels get from people buying commercial space. |

Excellent. It's a really good fun show and it's great to see it get a second season.

Oh! No problem. Still, definitely information people should know about NHK. So I guess it doesn't hurt to have i out there, either way. |

I didn't track sales for Baby Steps and Rinne since I wasn't really interested in them but let's see: Baby Steps: Volume 28: 36,225 copies (3 days) 66,443 (10 days) Didn't rank in week 3, sold less than 16,686 copies Volume 29: 36,507 copies (3 days) 67,856 (10 days) Didn't rank in week 3, sold less than 16,979 copies Volume 30: 57,463 copies (7 days) Didn't rank in week 2, sold less than 24,689 copies (Anime starts) Volume 31: 72,973 copies (6 days) 94,711 (13 days) Didn't rank in week 3, sold less than 17,402 copies Volume 32: 28,424 copies (2 days) 86,105 (9 days) Didn't rank in week 3, sold less than 20,374 copies Volume 33: 86,953 copies (7 days) 109,537 (14 days) Didn't rank in week 3, sold less than 19,021 copies You're right, it did get a reasonable boost. You can clearly see the boost by comparing Volume 30 and 33. Now let's see for Rinne: Kyoukai no Rinne: Volume 21: Failed to rank in week 1 (3 days), sold less than 22,068 copies Volume 22: 25,413 copies (7 days) Failed to rank in second week, sold less than 20,374 copies Volume 23: Failed to rank in week 1 (6 days) sold less than 20,427 copies Volume 24: 23,618 copies (5 days) Failed to rank in second week, sold less than 27,990 copies (Anime starts) Volume 25: Failed to rank in week 1 (3 days), sold less than 18,438 copies (NOTE: This volume came out right after the anime started) Volume 26: Failed to rank in week 1 (3 days), sold less than 21,007 copies Not much of a boost, at least, not something I can see. Hmm. Either way, good news. Rinne is not something I'd be dying to watch but it's a nice comfy show which helps me to relax.

NHK is like the BBC. NHK footmen show up at your door and demand that ya pay your NHK fee. |

I can confirm the lack of advertising in "Rinne." There are eyecatches, but nothing in between them, and the first commercial after the show is always for "Baby Steps," which is also on NHK.
Check out this link for an idea of the kind of anime NHK shows. Seeing some of the titles mixed in there ("12 Kingdoms," "Dennou Coil," "Moribito," "Planetes," "Bakuman," "Hyouge-mono," "Log Horizon," etc) makes me glad they're still providing a home for anime that doesn't rely on the late night infomercial model. There's a lot of kid stuff, but also some very ambitious shows sprinkled throughout. NHK anime also tend to get rerun occasionally, which hardly ever happens with other shows (excluding pay cable specialty channels). Back to "Rinne," it's not a favorite, but I usually get a good laugh at least once an episode, so I'm glad to hear they're making more. I don't expect anything of consequence to ever happen in it, but it's found its groove at this point and is a nice show to unwind with. |

Anime repeats are common here. Before the advent of streaming you might have to borrow someone's VHS or wait months before the next airing of an episode or do the slow process of downloading it. |

Hmmm nah I'm gonna stop watching this after season 1. It's too repetitive and I am getting sick of it. No desire left in me to see more.

After all the speculation that Rumiko might be ending it, and that InuYasha had dried her up for good (which is why RN is also a repetitive IY clone), I confess my reaction is, "Ohh, it's coming back....Let's kill it.
