mint-t:

Ahhh, haven’t seen this on my dashboard in a while. There are a lot of things I love about this:

• Exhibit A: Scanty’s short hair
• Exhibit B: Scanty’s chainsaw
• Exhibit C: JUST LOOK AT THIS PROMO MY GOD I DON’T CARE IF THIS IS TWO YEARS OLD THIS NEEDS TO GO INTO PRODUCTION LIKE RIGHT NOW AFHASDJHLASDFJASF;

why it isn’t out yet:
The Tokyo Youth Ordinance Bill passed just after the first season ended.

For people who don’t want to read all of it:

The current ordinance already prevents the sale and renting of “harmful publications” — materials that are “sexually stimulating, encourages cruelty, and/or may compel suicide or criminal behavior” to people under the age of 18. Bill 156 would require the industry to also regulate “manga, anime, and other images (except for real-life photography)” that “unjustifiably glorify or exaggerate” certain sexual or pseudo sexual acts. Another section of the revised bill would allow the government to directly regulate the above images if the depicted acts are also “considered to be excessively disrupting of social order” such as rape.

imashi (the director) has stated that he’s ready to go with the second season, but obviously because of the bill they can’t just make the show. they were thinking about making it live-action.

if you do a bit of research you get your answers.
so either they’re writing something new, trying to find loopholes, or filming in live action.
eeyup.
