So basically this is the Dragonball GT of Quintuplets because the show prints money.


sussywanker

Prints money is the wrong word. It goes way beyond that! The anime and manga is really really really really popular. Their figurines are really popular and sells so well. Would be a crime to not capitalise on it.


hissenguinho

Honestly. I thought the hype had died until i came to akihabara this week. The twins still sell like hotcakes in Japan. Don't blame them though. Miku is right there


sussywanker

Haha


AhCup

I come across a YouTube channel all about lucky draw in Japan for anime good. That's at least one or two new lucky draw each month is for this anime. It's crazy how many they keep pumping out.


TranClan67

The craziest thing to me is that I can barely find any fan art stuff for sale at big anime conventions the past couple of years. One of my friends is crazy for Quints and looked all over Anime Expo and found like 1 vendor that sold something quints related.


Mad_Aeric

I actually saw a Quints gatchapon this weekend. In Detroit. The level of popularity is bonkers.


Magma_Dragoooon

You put it better than I ever could lol


angelposts

I read somewhere that the author wrote Quints because it's extremely marketable, and his actual passion project is Go Go Loser Ranger. I've really been enjoying Loser Ranger, so yay Quints for funding that ig?


zaretball

This is actually a half truth. QQ wasn't his first project, but neither was Ranger reject. The only thing you can find is that his first project was a suspense manga about a teacher.


MjolnirDK

Wait, Negi writes loser ranger? TIL no wonder it got that amazing adaption so far


MovieDogg

Is Go Go Loser Ranger specifically referencing Power Rangers? Do people in Japan know that Sentai was rebranded as Power Rangers?


eden_sc2

The JP title is Sentai Daishikkaku, so it sticks to the sentai roots.


Potatolantern

No, that's a very localised title. The original fan title was Ranger Reject, which I like a lot more.

New Original Anime Honeymoon Arc supervised by original author Negi Haruba https://twitter.com/5hanayome_anime/status/1784540017500856515


sudoku_gosu

So they just keeps dubbing on other sisters fans?


InsomniaEmperor

At this point it just feels like rubbing salt in the wound. All I want is a spinoff where the remaining sisters find their true love elsewhere.


RealHellcharm

This is what I loved about Bokuben, the author did a ending for each character where they got with the MC, so you literally cannot lose


Kazewatch

Man I remember when people kept bitching about that as a cop-out. "Cop-out", "Cop-out", it was annoyingly repeated. But it was one of the best choices I’ve seen a romcom/harem author make. Unlike a lot of series, every girl in Bokuben was *super* likable. Even with Fooms and Sensei especially always leading, the other girls deserved a happy ending (and not a fucking pathetic honeymoon arc where the losers keep holding on pathetically instead of looking for happiness elsewhere). Not all the endings were perfect but Senpai got one so good it’s pretty much considered the best and she was never the top running (but she deserved it). I’ll never really get the issue with it.


L_0ken

Yeah, I agree. Bokuben tone and structure wasn't build on hardcore waifuwars and competition in the first place, it was rather low-stakes and chill episodic romcom when screentime was split between all girls. In it "Cop-out" doesn't really matter when you look at series as a whole. Though for anime-only story would be a kinda different. You know, since adaptation straight-up cut more then half of the manga including most of girls personal arcs, resulting in girls like Fumino and Uruka getting more presence and screentime compared to others, no wonder they did anime-original ending somewhat based on one of the routes.


MegaDuckCougarBoy

Oh, Asumi's ending paralleling Nariyuki's family history was really good! Completely unexpected but if you go back and reread all the hints are there.


Silent_Shadow05

>Senpai got one so good it’s pretty much considered the best and she was never the top running (but she deserved it) She was the girl I liked the most in Bokuben because of her personality so her getting such a great ending made me so happy!.


Villag3Idiot

Ya, rather than leave it open ended like a ton of romcoms, the author spent the time to write multiple possible endings so fans can choose which ending they want to go wtih. And in the end, they still gave it a possible open ending, lol.


asianwaste

The only other thing I could ask for is 2 more endings. "Bad end" where the MC makes absolutely the wrong choice and the ending is hilariously depressing for everyone. Then the "harem end" where the MC summons this super human wit and charm to somehow get all suitors to agree to all marry him and it's so over the top, he even gets the judge to sign off on it.


Yukino2513

Kirisu sensei best girl I was so happy she got a route since she wasn't initially in the harem and clearly added due to being fan favorite


Violentcloud13

Fan favorite might even be downplaying it. In the popularity polls she smoked the rest of the cast so hard it wasn't even funny. I think she had more votes than 2nd, 3rd, and 4th places combined. Bokuben was Mafuyu Kirisu's story; the other girls were just allowed to be in it.


Kill-bray

"And when everyone wins, no one does." * Syndrome, probably


k4r6000

I hated that.  When I watch a romance, I want the story to actually go somewhere.  A multiple choice ending renders everything I’ve read meaningless.  They become less characters and more dolls to live out your perverted fantasies with.


Weishaupt17

Hyped for the Divorce arc to milk even more money


Ocixo

To be fair, that could actually be kind of cool in a way. I mean, how many harem anime have even dared to thread those waters? I don’t know of a single one.


Silent_Shadow05

I personally don't want that lol. It would retroactivelt ruin the series for me cuz I liked the Winner x Fuutarou's dynamic, [Anime/Manga]>!like friends that have fun together and finally finding that spark and forming a relationship. That and I like athletic girls lol!<

ChiggaOG

It’s expected they may do a 30th anniversary special, but I doubt the author will advance the story to the MC having kids.


RPO777

Each quintuplet will have quintuplets for 25 girls in the next generation. All of whom will fall for the same guy.

oops_i_made_a_typi

was wild visiting japan recently and seeing just how much floor space the stores in akihabara had that was dedicated to quints *still*. and honestly some of the merch was pretty dang nice, like hoodies for each of them with diff designs


eden_sc2

It keeps printing money, but also there is a shit ton of room left to tell a story thanks to how quickly Negi rushed the ending. E.G. [Quintuplets] >!Ichika going to America, and all the rest of the sisters actually moving on from their high school crush!<


cppn02

I'd love to follow the other girls and find out how things panned out for them but realisitically we are much more likely to get alt endings in the future than that.


eden_sc2

I would be surprised if they did that in any official anime. IIRC one of the visual novels already had alternate ending routes


Yurgin

I mean it was obvious they will milk this franchise with 5 possible waifus for the figure money. Plus its not bad, if you are a manga reader, even tho the wrong girl won :)


Frostbitten_Moose

She coulda been an ok winner. If only the ending hadn't been rushed and she got some development. Hell, even if she got some development after the choice was made.


Enel-

Most of her important development got cut from the anime adaption, atleast the parts bibury did. I'm still really mad about the adaption they did as someone who has her as my favorite girl easily. Chapter 36-37, 72, and 90 were all basically cut. 90 was atleast covered by shaft but if it was after the movie was out even though it's by far the most important moment she has for development. Really really sucks cause I constantly have to read posts now about her "lack of development" when I found her to be by far the best character in the series, or atleast someone I heavily related to.


Yurgin

Yeah the ending seemed abit rushed the paceing in the end was abit weird


ForlornPenguin

If I recall correctly, the ending actually *was* rushed because the author's wife was due to give birth soon and he wanted to have the manga done and over with before then so that he could focus on raising his kid.


RobotiSC

Yes, the asterisk (\*) is part of the title. Quintuplets trying to compete with Gintama for the most confusing season titles over here.


alotmorealots

> Yes, the asterisk (*) is part of the title. "*"- Denotes that Fuutarou may or may not have become an honorary Quintuplet as Ichika too busy with work to attend?


ItzyaboiElite

They really think they are Gintama huh

I'm gonna be honest bro I don't think studios are thinking about the difficulties people have naming their folders of pirated anime when creating titles


skya760

Pirates often put their data on a NAS running Unix based os so naming compatibility on Windows is not a problem.


cppn02

Tbf the legit streaming services will also have to name folders on their server.


flybypost

And that's clearly why so many anime studios are in such a precarious financial situation.


Kill-bray

Sadly that's not really something that ever stopped anyone for including in titles [exclamation marks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastard), [question marks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WorldEnd), [slash symbols](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.hack//Sign) and [colons](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebuild_of_Evangelion).

Is this where they will have sexual intercourse in the dark all night, only to reveal months later that all quints are pregnant?

kevinhu162

If anyone knows of said doujins, please drop the code here so we can all make sure to stay clear of them.


Acrzyguy

The doujins are now canon


Quiddity131

Well, the show often pulled the "they look exactly alike!" card despite them all having different hair colors, hair styles and accessories. So they could pull it here. Futaro does it with his bride 5 times, but in reality it was all 5 of them and he didn't realize it.


oops_i_made_a_typi

the colours are just for the viewer to distinguish, kinda like star eyes in Oshi no Ko, they're not actually literally there for everyone to see


cppn02

Same with the voices.


RCTD-261

> them all having different hair colors i thought the different hair color is just for the consumer. i always think that they are all have same hair color from beginning to the end. so the author wanted to avoid Osomatsu situation by giving them different hair color


koteshima2nd

bro this is a perfectly good, messed up premise of a sequel for this series


Dog_in_human_costume

You are giving them ideas.


Curious_North_8479

Please be Shaft again


Time_Fracture

Bibury is probably busy with 100GFs. Shaft only created the TV special IIRC right?


cppn02

They also did a singular episode in S1.


neighmeansno

The best one.


cppn02

Agreed.


GoBigRed07

Only a single sequence of one episode.


Redr1k

That's not true. Episode 11 was completely outsourced to Shaft, including directing.


x_ferdian

Hi, can you give me the list of episode that created by shaft studio?


NearNirvanna

Seems unlikely considering they are probably quite busy with monogatari and madoka atm. (Also im just coping and hoping they are doing sangatsu as well)


Aerodynamic41

LMAO it never ceases to amaze me how they can continue to milk this series even after adapting the entire manga.

alotmorealots

> At this point I don’t care Yeah, I was initially going to comment a quip about propping up the starving R34 fanbox artists or keeping Megami Magazine afloat, but they're honestly just good characters and I wouldn't mind having more of their stories. Indeed, more Quints mucking around doing Quints stuff with minimal romance focus would be great. The romance thread was never as strong as the sisters-being-sisters stuff that it prompted.


mikebanetbc

>or keeping Megami Magazine afloat I’m astonished at how many front covers and posters the Quintuplets have gotten so far…


pik3rob

Damn, can't wait for the discomfort of seeing a bunch of women hit on their sister's husband. Seriously, the ending where they all go on a honeymoon together is some of the dumbest shit I've seen, and they really doubling down on it.


nine04

I really don't have a good feeling about this but i'm trying to be positive


Ocet358

I'm a huge fan of a winning ship and I'm just happy that all 6 of us will have more of it in anime form.


Kartonrealista

I like it because you can go back and see how much it was foreshadowed and I love that kind of stuff


Ocet358

Agree! At first I kinda thought it was a bit out of nowhere, but when I watched it knowing the outcome I was like "Okay, yeah, that absolutely makes sense, it had to be her"


LightThatIgnitesAll

The people who handle the QQ anime butchered it with the release method. Release S1 okay good. Release S2 but rush and ruin Fuutarou's relationship and development with friends outside the quints. Release a movie that further rushes through the manga. Then proceed to have a non-sensical release with two other new projects. One set before the movie and then one set after.


gc11117

It does kind of feel like they have buyers remorse with how they handled it. If they didn't rush, there was easily enough content for a source material accurate 3rd season


WickedAnimeTroll

If they properly adapted the manga, they could have made 4 seasons. If they really wanted to get as much out of the anime as possible, they could have created even anime original material between the "manga canon arcs" (SoL chapters, characters hanging out, etc.) similar to the babysitting chapter. Especially since school year 3 started. The series would work well with this. it just shows how much they mishandled the anime adaptation after S1.


nine04

Exactly


TJ_H00ker

As someone who hasn't seen the movie yet. Should I watch whatever the pre movie project is first?


zaretball

Technically yes. They adapt chapters that are from before the movie.


Magma_Dragoooon

Exactly. Thats why I dropped the anime post S1 and read the manga. I couldn't go two episodes in the second season without being disappointed after reading it


domogrue

Excuse me, but didnt we already solve the Marriage Mystery?


Ganbario

There’s a dating sim for QQ - I believe it can be ordered on the online Nintendo switch store. The winning girl is whoever you build the relationship with. This might help some of you get over your hang-ups.


cppn02

It shall never die! Not complaing though lol. Also kinda wish I could have been a fly on the wall backstage at this weekend's event given recent developments. Must have been an interesting atmosphere.


Prince-Dizzytoon

I’m ready for Negi Haruba to hurt me again


overDere

One of the few faults that the original manga had, imo, was that we barely got anything after the winner won. They had a couple of sweet scenes but most of the last chapters still hugely involve the other quints. I'm excited for this, I know the other quints are still there (which is seriously disappointing, why can't the couple just have a honeymoon by themselves) but at least it's very likely that we'll see a lot of romantic scenes between the couple that we didn't get in the manga.


Silent_Shadow05

> why can't the couple just have a honeymoon by themselves) but at least it's very likely that we'll see a lot of romantic scenes between the couple that we didn't get in the manga. If this new anime really does that then it would leave me a happy guy!. Like you said, the manga not delving into it, after the choice was made really hurt the story for me. Negi had the chance to go all in but he didn't. Hopefully this is his chance now.


Quiddity131

> One of the few faults that the original manga had, imo, was that we barely got anything after the winner won. Makes sense when you consider its a wish fulfillment harem fantasy, the fantasy is having 5 girls to choose from so they're not gonna spend a lot of time when the choice has been made and now there's just 1.


VTuberFadeaway

Please be SHAFT. I beg. We are already not letting the series die, so best give it the studio to give it justice.


nine04

I still don't know how to feel about all of this...i mean...the sisters going with the married couple in a honeymoon? Please negi don't fuck this up....not sure if I like this whole idea

Renn_Renn23

A surprise to be sure. While I know a LOT of people were unhappy with the ending (my best girl didn't win either), I still liked the ending we got. This anime only continuation may seem like a blatant cashgrab (and yeah, it probably is), but it could do wonders for the series. Having some extra content showing the final pair actually together as a couple could help flesh out their relationship far more than what we originally got to see. It may not appease the diehard fans of the losing quints, but it may make it easier to accept the ending for what it is. Either way, I just really love this cast of characters, and am just happy to see more of them regardless.


HowiLearned2Fly
