Reactions Around the Web

This is a pretty interesting read, y'know?
Well other world settings are always popular so why not use it as a way to bring back robot anime?
ANOTHER 'transported to another world' anime?! Just how desperate to escape reality are you guys?
They'll need a huge budget for this or it's gonna fail
Yes! Recent mecha LN are really great so I'm looking forward to this!

    I was disappointed that they didn't mention anything about making a second season...
    They better make this OVA longer than 30 minutes!
    The anime was so boring though...
    Character designs were good, CG was good, but the story sucks, and not to mention the BGM was so lame... What a waste.
    They should put on life jackets.

    [imgOverlaySmall img='osomatsu san dvd' text="42 votes" text_position=""]
    [Information episodes=" 25 " aired=" October 2015 - March 2016"]

    Synopsis

    The majority of the Matsuno household is comprised of six identical siblings: self-centered leader Osomatsu, manly Karamatsu, voice of reason Choromatsu, cynical Ichimatsu, hyperactive Juushimatsu, and lovable Todomatsu. Despite each one of them being over the age of 20, they are incredibly lazy and have absolutely no motivation to get a job, choosing to live as NEETs instead. In the rare occurrence that they try to look for employment and are somehow able to land an interview, their unique personalities generally lead to their swift rejection. From trying to pick up girlfriends to finding the perfect job, the daily activities of the Matsuno brothers are never dull as they go on all sorts of crazy, and often downright bizarre, adventures. Though they desperately search for a way to improve their social standing, it won't be possible if they can't survive the various challenges that come with being sextuplets! (Source: MAL Rewrite)

    [imgOverlaySmall img='Sailor Moon DVD' text="63 votes" text_position=""]
    [Information episodes=" 46 " aired=" March 1992 - February 1993"]

    Synopsis

    Tsukino Usagi is a 14-year-old girl in junior high. She's ditzy, whiny, and a crybaby. She often flunks her tests, and she is always scolded by her family. However after a bad day, Usagi is surprised to encounter a black cat that can talk! The cat, Luna, grants Usagi the power to transform into Sailor Moon, a fighter who is to save the world against the Dark Kingdom and its evil ruler, Queen Beryl. Of course, Usagi can't do it alone, and there are others who will help her on the way... (Source: MAL)

    3. Dragon Ball

    [imgOverlaySmall img='dvd Dragon Ball' text="73 votes" text_position=""]
    [Information episodes=" 153 " aired=" February 1986 - April 1989"]

    Synopsis

    Gokuu Son is a young boy who lives in the woods all alone—that is, until a girl named Bulma runs into him in her search for a set of magical objects called the "Dragon Balls." Since the artifacts are said to grant one wish to whoever collects all seven, Bulma hopes to gather them and wish for a perfect boyfriend. Gokuu happens to be in possession of a dragon ball, but unfortunately for Bulma, he refuses to part ways with it, so she makes him a deal: he can tag along on her journey if he lets her borrow the dragon ball's power. With that, the two set off on the journey of a lifetime. They don't go on the journey alone. On the way, they meet the old Muten-Roshi and wannabe disciple Kuririn, with whom Gokuu trains to become a stronger martial artist for the upcoming World Martial Arts Tournament. However, it's not all fun and games; the ability to make any wish come true is a powerful one, and there are others who would do much worse than just wishing for a boyfriend. To stop those who would try to abuse the legendary power, they train to become stronger fighters, using their newfound strength to help the people around them along the way. (Source: MAL Rewrite)

    2. Doraemon

    [imgOverlaySmall img='Doraemon' text="81 votes" text_position=""]
    [Information episodes=" 1787 " aired=" February 1979 - March 2005"]

    Synopsis

    Nobi Nobita is a 4th-grade boy in Tokyo. One day, a round, blue cat-style robot (minus ears) pops up in his desk drawer. Nobita's great-great-grandson (or something) lives in the 22nd Century, but thanks to Nobita's mistakes, the entire family is living in poverty. To rectify this, Nobita's descendant sends Doraemon back to the past, to help prevent Nobita from making mistakes. Of course this is a difficult task since Nobita is the weakest and least intelligent child in his class. Doraemon does, however, have a 4-dimensional pocket on his front, which contains cool gadgets from the future. With these toys, Doraemon will try to help Nobita. Unfortunately, Nobita also has the bad habit of misusing Doraemon's gadgets and landing himself in yet more trouble! (Source: AnimeNfo)

    1. Sazae-san

    [imgOverlaySmall img='Sazae-san dvd' text="91 votes" text_position=""]
    [Information episodes=" Ongoing " aired=" October 1969 - Present"]

    Synopsis

    The main character is a mother named Sazae-san. She lives in a house with her husband, her kids and her parents. The show is the ultimate family program and tends to follow traditional themes. Think of this show as the Japanese equivalent to "The Partridge Family" and you'll get a good feel for this show's atmosphere. Don't expect to see things like violence, swearing, kung-fu action or magical girls. The plots are more like "Today, Sazae-san goes to the new mall and gets lost". Such "boring" plotlines and the simplistic art are often a turn-off to non-Japanese audiences, but most Japanese find the show incredibly good. As a result, it continues to be one of the top ratings grabbers on TV and is one of the few anime that is considered "acceptable" by adults. (Source: AniDB)

    Reactions Around the Web

    Ugh... here comes the movie that everyone wanted... yuck
    2 weeks is awfully short.
    Eh... this is not something that I want to go see.
    This is good because anime movies are always recaps of the series.
    Orange was more interesting than Love Live! Sunshine!!

    [balloon_speech align="left" text="Well this is something good to hear! I am glad to know that this is coming. They have the right mindset in that we should be happy we are getting something! Sure it is not Kimi no na wa, but this is still great news!" image="mo-happy3"] [balloon_speech align="right" text="I mean... I enjoyed it but two weeks? This almost kinda sounds a bit creepy from Suwa's perspective. We know he liked Kaho but like 'this is the story of my two friends falling in love and how I am watching them'. Just a liiiiiiiiiittle offputting no?" image="honey-shrug"]
