Gonzo Restructuring

Post by KashimArbalestAS »

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... rom-8-to-4

this is good news. I personally hate Gonzo with a vengeance: doing a million anime in horrible quality and ruining potentially good shows. With old heads like the former CEO gone, maybe they can do quality shows, especially with producing only 4 shows a year.

While I usually pick quality over quantity I'm not sure Gonzo will be able to survive.

Face it, it's safe to bet on more shows than picking just one winner.
Guess another on will bite the dust soon.

Killer- If that's true, then there is no hope.

Gonzo looks like it uses the cheapest methods possible in making an anime, that it's a wonder why broadcast stations bother with their shows. I heard that sometimes it is the anime studio that pays for air time. That would make sense.

I wish Kyoto Animation had done the first season of FMP. Love that season, but I am glad Gonzo didn't do Fumofu or TSR.
Aww.... my bees...

...time will only tell, but about the only good title by Gonzo in recent memory
I can think of is is Blassreiter... if you can get over the heavy Catholic / religious undertones...

Didn't GONZO do pumpkin scissors? That series was pretty good.

Last Exile and Kiddy Grade imho two of the best.
And even Vandread made it to my buy list.

They did Pumpkin too.

I wonder who made up the titles.... <g>

No it doesn't ...
Sorry but lately with anime I suffer from P/B fatigue* started since 2003/4.
Guess Gonzo is grasping for straws. (or groping for straws)

I can't believe that Vandread and Last Exile were Gonzo's highest selling titles. So that means FMP wasn't?

Does Gonzo deserve this...
