There are times where good things die fast. Too fast. Mines The Squid Girl. How about you?

Only a 10 episode series. It makes me sad.

The third Squid Girl ova was translated just 2 weeks ago and it's probably going to get a third season

Describe it for Zennock!

It's about a guy named Amakusa Kanade and he has a curse that he calls "absolute choice." Basically, two choices of action will appear in front of him and he must choose between one or the other or suffer extreme pain. Usually these choices are ridiculous. Here's a few examples:

2) Just turn into a pair of underwear.

It's a great series that should've lasted longer IMO. It's also sort-of a parody of Visual Novels and anime in general.

It's on Crunchyroll under the title "My mental choices are completely interferring with my school romantic comedy." I suggest you check it out.

Only 1 season, because Japan didn't like it. The United States and Canada loved it though.

I myself have never watched an anime, so I can't really add anything constructive to these threads.

Wasn't My Little Pony started in Japan? Nevertheless, it's still a American Animation, so it counts.

The overwhelming majority of the animes last 12 episodes, as good as some of these can be you should't expect more than a rather short tale, it's like being sad because the story of Hansel and Gretel is short and has no continuation.

Although i don't doubt that someone in the world is sad for that...

Anyway, Spice and Wolf, Elfen lied and, maybe, Angel beats are the ones i liked and, probably, never get a continuation.
