Well hot damn! Just like with the quintuples, I didn't think anything special from this, both entertain tho, don't get me wrong, I just feel like the anime adaptations did their job. You can never guess with some of these series sometimes lol, looks like we got something to look forward to.

That could have just been a placeholder if they knew it was continuing but not exactly when the second cour would air. But I'm just speculating since I don't know how that actually works.

I'm glad to see We Never Learn will get a second season. It's always one of my pet peeves when you have titles like romance or harem shows based on an on going manga that only get one season made and you have to read the manga to find out how the relationships get resolved.

Well, if they they had waited to give this a fall premiere, then we could have gotten 1 24 epi.-series from the start vs. 2 seasons that 12-13 epi. each.

Or they could pull a Kampfer and have an ending that doesn't really make much sense.

Funny you should mention this one - at the end of the manga, the author stated his desire for each medium to have a different romantic resolution. The LN leaves the protagonist with the yandere librarian, the manga leaves him with the student council prez, and the anime was supposed to have him end up with the childhood best friend character - except that anime from that period seemed to have an industry standard of never resolving anything.

That’s pretty quick, but I don’t mind. I will look forward to seeing more from this in October.

This is like a modern twist on the Tenchi Solution.

... You just described the initial purpose FOR an anime adaptation my good sir. It's SUPPOSED to make you invested to want to read the source material.

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about anime series that only ever run for 12 episodes and we never see the end. Of course an anime should get you invested in the original but any adaptation should stand on it's own and if it fails to stand on it's own, then it's not a good adaptation, it's a commercial. This has been a problem since the 90s when we used to have those OVAs that were only like three episodes long and never adapted anymore of the source material. But now with 12 episode shows being the typical model for anime adaptations, I feel like it happens even more these days.

It looks like we are starting to trend away from that being the universal rule recently, with many shows going at least for a good stopping point even if they don't tell the entire story, and more of them telling the whole thing than I remember in seasons past. And I am quite thankful for that, since I think the best adaptations should tell a good enough (and complete enough) story to sell both the dvds (and streaming subs) as well as more copies of the source material.
