Why it is not Popular or why it seems to obscured? I just found out this anime in some random post here in Mal. Its Cute Girls Doing Cute Things Naruto Style! That should be a recipe for SUCCESS!

Episode 2 and 3 already have mini chunin exam and when they try to steal there sensei hair tie, it reminds me of when team 7 getting the bells from kakashi. I was Hooked!

The Animation and Background art style was also very good.

My only gripe will be there is no Rasengan/Chidori But over all this very Good Shit!

I thought at first this was some old anime, when I double check here in Mal its only release in 2022.

I never seen this anime talk about by Popular Youtuber Like Mother Basement. So I am really confused here. Thus the marketing budget for this anime is non-existent?

Over all my rating for this is 8.5 I really enjoyed this!

I forgot what other animes that aired at the same time, i think that play a big role along with the lack of promotional stuff.

I like that series. Turned out enjoyable to me and I also like other series from that creator. Is there going to be a season two?

It came out Spring 2022 with Komi Can't Communicate, Love is War, Date Alive and a few other popular titles during that season. Plus being a unknown it had a rough time getting attention. I like it as well.

It was decent but I wouldn't call this a full CGDCT, more like a semi.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Dunno man. It's from the author of Takagi-san, so it's pretty good. Also, that's are a lot of beautiful feet in it.

there are multiple scenes or episodes that have undeniable fanservice. Like the half-an-episode long scene of them bathing filled with constant shots of their naked bodies that did NOT need to be portrayed as sexual. Saying shit like "that's a you problem if you think they were sexualized" it's such a stupid cope to use, especially for this show. I say that I personally did not like this show because of the loli's and sexualization of a majority of the characters, who are all confirmed minors and very much look it, and suddenly that makes me some bad person? Also the OP literally asked why it wasn't popular. As someone who watched it back when it was airing, that was a big reason why it hadnt gained traction, and the show was very controversial then.

I enjoyed almost the most in season. Expecting every episode. Even tsubame wanting to see how man looks or how every day was fun as shinobi. It was really fun anime and every character had something i want more of it.

@yoshZZ Well if the sexualized of the characters in this anime kinda hurt this anime, then why the Heck the monogatari series seems so popular????

@yoshZZ Ironic you say that, considering how much of a little bitch fit you're having over some Japanese cartoon characters.

Monogatari has other elements that people love about it. Not that this show doesn't have good elements (I enjoyed other aspects of this, such as the characters for the most part or the clean animation), but this is moreso a ninja slice-of-life that doesn't have as much to offer in terms of standing out enough for people to recommend it to others. At least that's what I'd assume, I haven't directly seen Monogatari cuz there's too many series for it lol but I've heard people talk and praise many aspects of it that aren't the child stuff.

And if you at least got enjoyment out of the show then that's good for you, maybe you can recommend it to friends! There's so many shows I've seen that aren't popular or are underappreciated imo that I've recommended to friends that they end up loving, or that I just talk about with friends in general. A show doesn't need to be popular, especially with how many anime exist out there, for you to enjoy it so just keep that in mind :)

Bro what? like genuinely I don't even know what you mean here. I never had some "little bitch fit over Japanese characters." I stated why I, *personally*, did not enjoy the series and was turned away from it, and the main reason the show wasn't popular. Which is literally what OP was asking. Many others felt the same way as me back when it was airing, and many threads existed about it and how it made people uncomfortable. I only got angry when someone just lazily stated how "It's my fault for finding it as fanservice" when there was just blatant fanservice that they do not remember, insinuating me as some pedophile who thinks the show just showing children makes me think of them sexually. All I did was defend myself against what that person was saying, not complain about the sexualization of the characters. But even to your point, fictional characters or not, the show sexualizing characters that are *supposed to* look like children was weird and was the reason that I and many others didn't enjoy the show and it didn't gain popularity, plain and simple. If you can't actually come up with a genuine argument against it other than "They're not real" then idk what to tell you man

@yoshZZ I watched the monogatari series. The fanservice in that anime is kinda border line Offensive. When the MC sisters always seen naked and sexualize (plus the infamous toothbrush scene) and when the other character the girl with the big bag is molested by the MC and waving it off as like a joke. No one seems to critisize that! and when in Kunoichi Tsubaki got a few minutes of young girls (with towel in their body) bathing then its now bad?!

It seems to me there is a double standard in here.

It moreso is due to the mainstream-ity of the series. Monogatari is much more well-known, and I have heard complaints on it's child fanservice (and said infamous toothbrush scene) same as I have for Kunoichi Tsubaki. Same with other big shows like Mushoku Tensei as well, but sometimes people's complaints on a series aren't as heard due to the massive popularity or praise it gets, being overshadowed by that for example
(I feel like I worded that weirdly but I hope that makes sense)

@yoshZZ If it made you feel "uncomfortable" then yes, it is a you problem being offended by Japanese cartoons. They aren't real, they're drawings and animations, plain and simple. But I'm not going to have this discussion with someone who's argument is "sexualized cartoon kids". Why should I when it's all you can make up? It's honestly pathetic and I've seen it a thousand times. Read my post again, your "post" doesn't have any "points", just incessant whining about drawings. You're not deserving of any response other than this.

You missed the point of absolutely everything I just said but ok. If you can't have a genuine discussion without forcing it into some argument just because someone has different feelings than you then whatever. Have a great day.

This is the only anime where I binged the whole 13 Episodes and it feels like only 5 minutes has passed by, arguably one of the most enjoyable anime out there but the story is nothing extraordinary, enjoyable characters too and some are hilarious.

Also, I think one reason why it's not popular (In general audiences) is because this show aired along with some heavy hitters. Spy x Family, Tate no Yuusha, Summertime Render, Kaguya-sama, Paripi and so-on, this might be one of the season where it's very packed with quality titles, I myself even didn't watch it during the air time because there's simply too many titles to watch.

You people have never seen fanservice if you think this show had any. Aside from the fact that they are drawing and don't have ages or rights because they aren't real. They went out of their way to make them as unsexualized as possible. The bath scene even when the girl jumps in the water naked they do tricks to hide her butt. When they are talking about attractiveness and point out the girl with huge boobs they don't even mention anything about her and say she isn't attractive. The girls were never shown in a sexualized manner, if you are seeing that it is your projection. Funny how almost every time someone talks like that on twitter crying about anime college girls with big boobs somewhere down the road they end up getting caught with 500TB of real CP.
