Anime that deserve a reboot with a longer run time

[Kentucky]

Groove Adventure Rave: Yes, it was a shounen series, complete with battles that last for five episodes and melodrama it was just starting to get going when they canned it. My understanding is that the manga actually finishes the story, but I haven't be able to get hold of it yet.

You can get it on onemanga and mangafox if you want it but I believe most of the books are now in english.

As for anime, Big O, the third season was cancelled so we were left with a horrible, horrible ending that answered nothing.

trigun really needs the "hellsing ultimate" treatment. after reading the manga, the anime is just dissapointing.

AIR GEAR...that anime needs to be done justice...the manga was awesome...then it became...well ahem...lets not go into that right now...all i will say is that i've stopped reading it...but the anime had so much to go on with a good couple chapters but noooo...only 25 eps for you sir...i was so pissed off when i watched the last ep and discovered that that is where they choose to end it..

like i said b4 this show needs to be done justice...and it will shed some light on some on the shit that was going on in that show...

i can guarantee this anime would be a hit..........and it has bewbs....in case u needed more convincing...

Thanks for the tip buddy.

And seconded on Big O. It was like the old Batman cartoons from the 90's, except with giant robots. And yeah, the ending was retarded.

Claymore needs to adjust its "ending" and just continue on following manga.

 

[BlindTom]

They should do Bakemonogatari again except this time they shouldn't blow all the money on the opening credits so they have to reduce the episodes themselves to slideshows. Also they should finish the damn thing without teasing us with 'webisodes' that are long overdue.


SHAFT are still the best studio ever though. Guess I'm tsundere.

 

[BlindTom]

and whilst I'm here why not give us high budget gunslinger girl too? That would be great, yeah this is so going to happen.


ooh ooh ooh ROZEN MAIDEN SERIES 3 ANYONE?


Also SHAFT is better, you're a poophead.

It makes me want to beat my head against the wall when an anime only has a 12 episode run when the manga ran for 100+ chapters or if the anime had great potential.

Example: Elfen Lied
The anime was okay, but I was bored so I read the manga. I CRIED AT THE END They could have had this manga become a stellar anime, if only they would have given it enough time to actually follow the story of the manga. I know that they hadn't finished the manga when the anime series started, but I would rather them go on hiatus for half a year instead of turning it into crap.

Another example: Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou
Okay, this anime hasn't ended yet, it's only on it's 6th episode, but it has only been picked up for 12 episodes. After only 6 episodes, it has risen to become my favorite anime series. The story goes that it is the future, and there is magic, magical academies, etc , etc, we've heard it all before. Sai Akuto is a transfer student to the world's largest magical academy. His life's ambition is to help all of mankind and hopes to become a high priest after graduating. At the academy there is an oracle that predicts your future occupation with a 100% accuracy rate. After predicting things like "Soldier", "Doctor", "Teacher" for the people in front of Akuto, it is his turn. The oracle hesitates and says "... Demon Lord". His destiny is to become a Demon Lord like the previous one, who nearly destroyed all of society a hundred years before. He spends the series trying to be a good person and fighting his future, despite being under constant watch from the government, having a portion of the student body trying to assassinate him, a group of dark mages trying to recruit him, and becoming the unwilling master of the previous Demon Lord's dragon. I think that this is the best anime ever, and was crushed when I learned that it will only last 12 episodes.

So, what anime series do you think deserves a longer run or reboot?

Spoiler: Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou Opening

Spoiler: First episode of Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou

EDIT: ROFL Ninja'd half the people who responded with Elfen Lied

Wait, wait, wait. Its only going to be 12 episodes. WTF? WHY? Who do i need to fuck/kill to get this so running longer i mean its so good!
O.T. All Anime. jk
Um ones that come to mind are Fooly Cooly really short with 6 ep.
Also one that i don't think many people have heard of Rec. 9 episode mini series with 12min eps. Even though its so short its still easily in my top 10 favorite series cause it has a story

 

[Freedomario]

you mean like "Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo"? It was my favorite show, yet it only had like 3 short seasons, with a cliffhanger ending, too.

 

[KiruTheMant]

FLCL.It deserves a few more episodes,but not drug out into the point its unfun.

 

[Roxas1359]

I would have to go with this. I know that it continued in tha Manga for quite a while then it went into Shinsetsu Bobobo.

 

[WrcklessIntent]

Ouran, just because I despise what they did to the anime...I really do...

Wait do you mean ouran host club. But I actually liked that. I mean sure it isn't the greatest thing ever but it ain't a half bad anime

 

[TOGSolid]

I still live in hope that Berserk will one day be picked up and continued.

QFE

That series deserves to be continued. I know I could just go read the manga, but I'd still love to see it brought back in anime format with the same English voice actors (with mandatory outtakes naturally).
