Akibaranger Season2?

Season 2?

Don't be trolling, Toei. I want a season 2 to Akibaranger, and to deny this would make me very sad.

I suddenly see the offices of Toei. And behind a large desk, in a large office, sitting in a large chair... Tendou. With Kagami beside him failing wildly "But the fandom'll believe it!" "Yes, I know. Would you like some Tofu?"

I've never been so happy something ended in my life than when I heard Akibaranger was over.

Your first impression was the right one. While it does get a little better and a has a few moments (some of which are ruined by the rest of the episode), it's overall an unfunny waste of time with very unlikable characters. The last part is what really does this show in for me.

PS For the record, I've watched all of Akibaranger and was thrilled to see it end.

I hope its true! I enjoyed watching Akibaranger.

Whatever happened to their radio show? Is it still airing? Somebody subbed the first 2 episodes but stopped after that.

This blows my mind. The ending was absolutely fantastic. Finding out that they are TV characters and the producer has been controlling theire lives? It's just incredibly imaginative, not to mention the show is actually laugh out loud funny and enjoyable. Not just the ending either but the whole show was just so enjoyable and fun. Ridiculous enemies, Giant-ish robots and all.

TVNihon subbed the first 2 radio shows but after that I don't know. Masato Wada said when he started it that he didn't know how long the show would last. It could have ended already

There were definitely more than two, the third one was where the Tomokazu Seki saying "Akibaranger" in the mobirates voice came from. Looks like there was a fourth too, but since TV-Nihon said they weren't interested in subbing it any more I lost track.

Oh yeah! I forgot about that episode. Jefusion ran an article about it and I awaited the TVN subs and they never came. Hope someone else picks it up. I need something to keep me going until episode 14 eventually gets done.

That's sad

. I was looking forward to Honoka guesting in the show.

At least you watched the show. That alone makes your opinion much more credible.
