lol yeah, i hope they make it like the manga now in season 3, just continue from season 1 and make it like season 2 was a bonus season or just add a few episodes of season 2 in later and remake season 2
very good, now that i know we have a massive chance of season 3 it made me more happier, if you find out anymore info tell me please and ill reasearch and see if its true ;)
btw the only way we are ever gonna get a season 3 is if it's popular in japan, i mean REALLY popular, doesn't matter how many petitions/phone calls/emails they get from NA it ain't gonna matter, their market is in japan if japan doesn't like it than they won't make it, if you can show me proof of it being popular in japan (they have much higher standards than us considering every anime is made there) than i will believe you all the figures on this forum have given are from america, what about the figures from japan? how's the manga doing over there? how was the anime received? how was the sales of the anime? if these are all positive than ya were golden, if the anime did bad sales wise, and popularity wise, than we don't have a chance in hell i hope you guys know that.
Well yeah, that's just how business works for domestic products. I, however, can't find any indications of how well the anime did. The manga sales are good, if not great.
And to the people who keep saying it might come out around October, you'd better have a source on that. I'm tired of rumors that turn out to be nothing more. It's really irritating. So please, if you have a source on that please share; otherwise, keep that to yourself until you can validate it. And by "source," it had better not be another forum.
If so, it will count as a secondary source; so far, none of them have been reliable.
yep i agree with jun, if you don't have a source than really don't tell us a rumor that you heard on some random forum. if you manage to get some valid information please post a link/refrence so we tell if it's legit
i know the anime is doing good because thats how there money recovered this year, they had a major turn up this year from loads and loads of countries buying the series
Please provide sources guys. I'm tired of going to Youtube and seeing things like "O hai guyz! its gonna come out n the next 3 months!!!" Just stop that please. I'm sure the good intentions are there, but in all likelihood you're probably hurting the community.
jeez man cant you have a little bit of hope instead of being so negative, ive read this shit everywhere, i cant remeber where and stuff but just say if i have this info right and its does come out then your be wrong and ill be right so you can shut your mouth and start being a bit more possitive
i know everyone wanted a third season and they waited 3 years, but know one took in mind the earthquake, what do you think they would rather do, save there family with food, water, a home and health or let them die to make a anime
they would of lost so much money, like every other company, now they wouldnt have enough to make all there ideas and i can imagine alot, so they would of chosen a few so they dont lose all there money, but you dont realise the manga is still going, people are still buying R+V season 1 and 2, also season 1 and 2 will be realeasing in UK in sept 2012
So... asking for sources is negative? Realism is not negativity.
And I would gladly "shut [my] mouth", if what you say is true; point is, you don't have anything to back it up with. I'm not saying you didn't find anything; I'm saying that, at the moment, you don't have anything solid to present. So why say right out the door that its coming October?
Also, on the chance you are right (I do hope you are), I will gladly say I was wrong--if it comes out in October. But right now, you're just making olive branches out of inferences.
For the record, I won't be throwing ad hominems at you. So, I won't fire back for calling me "negative," when in reality I'm pointing things out. I am hoping for a season 3, but I am also hoping that people will stop spreading untrue rumors. It's been happening since I found the show on Netflix.
I have been doing some digging on Gonzo's financial state. The site www.rosa-vam.com hasn't been active since 2010, so nothing there. As for Gonzo's official site, I'm still searching... and translating as best I can.
Gonzo has been doing some restructuring by selling some assets including the company that made the PS2 game, but that was 3-ish years ago (Anime News Network); maybe enough time to pull Gonzo together. Not sure how much they were sold for; Gonzo was in about $30 million deep in deficit.
(From Gonzo's site --After delisting in 2009--)
-Dec 2010, they were hiring for a good (experienced) production staff
-July 2011, they managed to interest Samuel L. Jackson in the production of a live-action Afro Samurai; the anime of which did excellent in terms of sales (This was before the delisting from the Stock exchange though). Assuming everything goes well, Gonzo will have a hand in producing a live-action Afro Samurai starring Samuel L Jackson.
-Dec 2011, they seem to be involved with something called Samurai 7<--Needs more details.
-May 2012, a subsidiary has been established in Okinawa, so it looks like they're expanding and hiring local talent. Awesome!
-Now, They're working on a couple other projects. On TV, they seem to be airing two TV shows (Shangri-La and Saki-Saki) on like 8 different networks. I'm not sure how successful they are though; then again, they're on like 8 different networks so... good I guess?
Projects from Wikipedia:
2010, Animated Street Fighter IV sequences
2010, Animated Blazeblue: Continuum Shift sequences.
The Nikkei has "brushed" 9000 recently, hopefully the success transits to Gonzo/GDH as well. Failing that, at least the Japanese economy has been recovering. (link)
And as you said before (ANN), the MVM/UK has acquired licences to sell the anime in 2012. Anime/Manga is, at least, somewhat popular over there, but there isn't much on TV like the U.S. And Netflix over there is fairly new. Either way, it will probably attract more fans and hopefully demand.
Some bad news:
-They're still delisted from the Stock exchange, so I really am not sure how well they're doing.
-I can't find ANYTHING on Rosario + Vampire other than the selling of foreign licenses.
Some good news:
-Their economy seems to be on the upturn
-Manga is still fantastic and selling
-All signs seem to be pointing that Gonzo is on track of things again. :)
If you haven't bought the DVDs or mangas, please do so if you really do want a season 3. Obviously, there's no guarantee, but it does help. So, buy it off of Amazon.com or some other store NEW not used. If you can't, then I would suggest another proactive exercise of some kind.
Maybe if the Manga sells even better Gonzo will follow suit to what others did to Full Metal Alchemist and Hellsing.
very good info, and if you didnt realise i had some of that info, about the stock crash, about it turning back up about new fans attracted to it and also about the manga selling, and btw i said it was a rumor also highlight i said "I dont believe it"
i may of not provided links but reading yours i got some of the info right, other bits are from other sources like gonzo's site and the mangas sight, as soon as i can find where i found them i will gladly send you the links
a video i used on finding some info, i looked into this info: link
I know its a youtube video, you cant trust anything that people say, but you also cant trust the wiki, ive looked up most this info espeacially the stock crash, Austrailer and New Zealand were realeasd (the dvd set) in 2012, english is releasing in september.
I just discoverd this Anime yesterday, and i've already seen both seasons . Kinda hoping there will be a 3rd season but i doubt it, season 2's ending was kinda...weird.
Especialy when he said he dint know who to choose yet, was i the only one thinking "Who the fuck are you kidding?". He's been hoping for a kiss from Moka the entire 2 seasons, but always ended with a bite instead lmao. The real Moka trying the booby thing was hilarious though, i wish he kissed her right there.
Oh well, i guess things never go as you want them to.
Gonna go off topic now:LL , but i need your guys help , if anyone is into Hardcore , Trance etc... then feel free to go over to my youtube channel; i upload that type of music everyday in HD , But i have got hardly any views and next to 0 subscribers , i would really appreciate the help thanks.
Now , getting back on topic : @Hate smurf , i know what you mean , the way it ended was retarded i think they built it up perfectly but then wrecked it by tskune hugging moka , maybe if they ended it with a kiss we wouldnt have to be left with this stupid cliffhangar.
this is a bit out the question but my friend told me to find out if theres a season 2 of ultra maniac, is there, let me no so i can tell her, or if theres going to be one
no news that i could find on a season 3 but i will be happy to announce Code Breaker anime is being released this fall
link
i know alot of people like heavens lost property to, so i thought i would let everybody know that it's gonna be released this year, so far the date hasn't been set yet but it has been officially announced, preview looks good may get me to watch the first/second season.
@Everyone hey guys long time on see lol just came cross to just say hows it going and i hope everyone is enjoying there summer break or you are enjoying your welcome back to school :D
