To be fair, other shows have said the same, and then, well, didn't.

I remember that Kamisama Dolls did something similar several years ago and that didn't go so well.

Well that is another show that severely overrated itself. I guess the people involved were so engrossed in it that they didn't realize...the show sucks.

"To Be Continued" might be the scariest part of this series...

This is more than obvious but as expected, the manga is way better than this disappointing adaptation, with cheap animation and rushed pacing... but if they are going to continue adapting this, I really preffer going with Ousama game: origin which is, in my opinion, the best of the bunch

To be honest, I think the very original source material, which was the (cellphone) novel, was really weak to begin with. That's why the anime never really got my hopes up. I was actually surprised they managed to make an engaging manga out of it.

Please don't. I haven't felt a (teased) continuation of a series was this undesirable since Taboo Tattoo teased events that occur after the anime in the source material at the end of the last episode.

Eh... I thought the original manga was about as bad as the anime. But I did not read either of Natsuko's games, and people do seem to agree that Origin is the best.

I haven't seen the final episode, but I've read how this ends. This anime made me laugh at times, but it definitely doesn't deserve a sequel. I'd probably watch though, so...

The original manga is garbage too but the anime is just incredibly incompetent visually to the point where it's a couple of notches lower.
