I will never understand why the Haruhi franchise died after Disappearance came out when Disappearance was such a massive success.

haruhi is shit
this franchise is shit
John Bell
Because it was first and foremost just an advertisement for the Light novel.
They probably didn't expect how many people would love it but still went with their original plan of never finishing it so people buy LNs.
Same with Spice and Wolf.
Gavin Fisher
too good for this world
Charles Cook
No new LNs to sell = no new anime
Blame Kadokawa or Tanigawa for being a lazy ass
Leo Collins
Author didn't release anything after 2011
Isaiah Long
It peaked
Nathan Fisher
The last masterpiece kyoani made while the last good thing kyoani made was Tamako market
Wyatt Brown
It's like with K-ON. Kyoani killed it by making the anime so much better than the source material.
Kevin Perez
because kadokawa sucks dick
Kevin Kelly
Everyone involved hates money. Same thing happened with AoT and Tiger Bunny but at least those got something eventually.
Parker Thompson
But there were still books to adapt.
Andrew Ramirez
Yes, but no new books to advertise = Kadokawa won't greenlight a new season to advertise it.
Lucas Wood
Kyoani's relationship with Kadokawa has greatly deteriorated, if we were to get a third season it wouldn't be by them.
Jonathan Long
Because the bassist didn’t get fucked
Josiah Evans
Until later.
Robert Cook
There was still Yuki-Chan after that.
Benjamin Hernandez
This.
Neither company wants to work with each other and Kadokawa knows Hauhi without KyoAni would not be a good thing (see Yuki-chan).
Ryan Wilson
They made Amagi together just a few years ago.
Ayden Murphy
Yuki-chan is a mediocre spin-off anyway.
Jack Clark
they reached perfection and knew it could not be surpassed.
Michael Wilson
Why is anime condemned to be an advertisement medium? I'm so fucking tired of half-assed adaptations. Nowadays I only care for originals since I know at least these will get a conclusion at the end of it.

>gets willingful viewers
>pays for itself with merchandise and BD sales
>additional money if successful
>end on a cliffhanger so people have to buy the LN
It makes absolutely no sense not to.
