No idea. It was the anime of its season and everything.

Because it was good.

Because all the fags were busy watching gays on frozenwater

People thought it fan service the anime when it was one of the best battle shounen shows in a very long time.

I didn't watch the anime when it was airing (and still haven't) because I was waiting for the BDs. But I love the manga.

Nobody in Japan likes big butts.

Manga art isn't that good and the anime had some extremely QUALITY moments.

It should’ve been animated by the gods of ecchi XEBEC

"These aren't my glasses"

Wasted potential

but, it was

Honestly not enough fanservice.

Because it was fucking stupid.

dude fanservice lmao

It's a sports anime, not an ecchi one.

because japs are stupid and hate fun

daily reminder best girl was robbed

Because the jokes got old after the third or so episode

Because the sole premise was laughable and not in the comedic sense.

Keijo!!!!!!!! was legitimately my favorite anime of that year. I went back after the fact and read the manga and really enjoyed that too. It's a bummer that there will never be any more.

keijo is to ecchi what lucky star is to moe

the pinnacle of its genre?

the flanderization of its genre

Because the fact that it was all a joke was mostly concealed in the marketing. Thereby meaning it lost a lot of it's potential market

I for one didn't watch it until long after the series ended because it looked like shitty mindless fanservice as opposed to something making fun of shitty mindless fanservice

needed nipples and more yuri molestation

There is so much wrong here I don't even know where to start.

It wasn't making fun of fanservice though, it just had mediocre levels of fanservice.

what on earth are you talking about

true, it's having fun with it rather than making fun of it

there's no layers of depth in both animes, lowbrow entertainment.
it's like every other mediocre mango that gets an anime to sell BDs

Confirmed for not watching it.

Nowadays everyone wants to be cult.

And baby's first step into being cult is hating anything sexual because it might be fanservice.

It was popular enough in the only place that matters for me.

So popular that the anime did so well that the manga got canceled.

The premise scared a lot of people into thinking it was bad. Which you honestly can't blame them for. It's too bad though, I really enjoyed it.

What the fuck is this new cult word.

Because all the girls were over 18

they couldn't comprehend the perfection that is nozomi

They weren't naked

People have shit taste. I know it was my anime of the season, and that's enough for me at least

i liked it

What is she smelling?

Oh shit, I had given up hope.

Gattai remains one of the funniest things ever.

yes!

...

it was yurishit and painfully ridiculous with not enough bait, angst and ships for yurifags
nobody with taste liked it, not enough ecchi for ecchifags either

My anime standards are pretty low, but I dropped this 10 minutes into the first episode because it was too ridiculous. Did I do wrong?

You need to watch 1000 anime to post here.

Glorious

It was too smart to win.

...

This entire show feels like a shitpost with actual effort and grade A taste put into it

Keijo!!!!!!!! taking tropes/cliches and just 200% making it their own was just the best.

It's true.

There wasn't a group of people it could be interesting to. Normalfags are too stupid to look past "fanservice" premise and it didn't have enough pandering for "hardcore otakus". Such a shame, I initially planned to enjoy it ironcally but Keijo turned out to be the most fun shounen I ever read.

perv

He's right though.

It was extremely popular the season it aired.

It's just too trash to justify being talked about seasons after.

Japs are gay and don't appreciate big asses

It was trash. Not even the good kind of trash like Killing Bites.

>haha butts! XDD
>late 2000s tier animation
Why would it be

keijo was very good and but people can't look past the ridiculous premise and appreciate it as the greatest sports anime of our time.

No idea.
The show was great, with a good mix of fanservice, action and comedy.
A lot of people were put down by the premise but I thought it was great and blended itself to the ridiculous nature of the show.

Because the animation was bad and the way the breasts and butts were animated made them offputting rather than arousing, the characters were unlikeable, the story was shit, and the directing was awful.
>I'VE GOT YOU
>LOL NO U DON'T
>face shrouded in shadow with glowing eyes and smirk
>Do this 20 times an episode and somehow don't think it'll get old

it was extremely well done for what it was but maybe japan is just burnt on shit like this. either that or poor marketing. either way, the anime tanking pretty much up and killed the manga so it doesn't really matter anymore either way.

For a ridiculous premise, it was fun and fresh, yet somehow keeping it hot blooded as battle shounen are. The anime flopping was an insult

Didn't have enough exclamation marks

Is the manga still going?

>>late 2000s tier animation
What is this even supposed to mean?

skipped the fun parts and just dropped you in the middle

No, it was canceled like right after the anime finished airing.

nope. it was cancelled last year. it's amazing it ran for as long as it did, and in shonen sunday on top of that. but the competition in that mag was too cutthroat.

damn, I really liked the anime

There isn't a man on the planet that doesn't like big butts.
What happened to japan to make them think breasts > everything else?

picked up

New chapter soon.
t. translator

Might want to get on that. It's not gonna get BDs because of how poorly it did in Japan.

Feels more like a bet.
>I am making manga about butts
>you can't make a manga about butts, that's assinine
>I'LL FUCKING SHOW YOU
You can argue that 4 year run and anime adaptation is pretty respectable.

I thought the BDs had already come out? I remember there being some OVAs too.

They have different audience.

Honestly felt like shit when she was crying at the start of the next episode.

It was too ecchi for people who don't like ecchi, and it didn't go far enough in sexualizing it's characters for people who do. The overall audience for it that were willing to even give it a chance was very niche.

It was my AOTS. I still get a chuckle thinking about it.

Fuck, now I gotta rewatch this series. It's too fucking funny

>liked in the west
>liked in japan
>otakus didn't like because no nipples
>flops

It wasn't more popular because it was shallow drivel.

Tell me three things from the story that stand out to you from other anime that's already existed before it.

why didn't i pick this up when it was airing, fuck

they're all pedos. They're scared of developed breasts and fat tissue on asses.

...

Don't know. It was the AotS.

It was popular, just not with buyers

Bless you

I hate more the fact that the manga was axed to be honest.

...

BRAAAAAAPPP

It was interesting on paper but the fights were predictable and boring as balls, the only reason the mc was not more generic was because she is a girl.
The only decent girl (with an interesting moveset) was the white aired one, mc's moveset was super lackluster with only the generic "this power will kill me if I use it too much but Im going to make it my main and only power".

Fuck i wish my instructor would do this to me

I'm actually taking it serious like a battle shonen.

That's the correct approach.
