What other Kakuyom works are likely to be animated?
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
Currently on Kakuyom, following the cautious hero, ‘Shave your beard. And pick up a high school girl. is currently in the planning stages for an anime adaptation of “Shave Your Beard and Pick Up a High School Girl”.
If this work proves to be successful, there will be more anime adaptations from Kakuyom in the future.
Therefore, I would like to pick out some of the candidates for the next anime adaptation.
In recent years, Kakuyom has been putting a lot of effort into romantic comedies and many romantic comedies have been published in book form.
Among them, works such as “Nishino: The Lowest Caste in the School and the Strongest Boy in the Foreign Language World” (web version title is Tales of Nishino), “My Stepmother’s Stepdaughter Was My Ex-Girlfriend”, “My Girlfriend Had an Affair with Me, but My Little Devilish Junior Misses Me”, and “Watashi no Shiranai, Senpai no 100 Koko no Koto no Koto” are highly regarded in book form as well and could be said to be candidates for anime adaptation.
Tensei/transference is also very popular, with “I want to tell you I love you because I was reborn as Duke of Pigs” ranked second on the all-time list, and both the book version and the comical version are doing well.
The cyberpunk “Rebuild World” also received high praise, and “Super Cub,” another highly acclaimed motorcycle and girl coming-of-age novel, is a work that seems suitable for an anime adaptation.
Even if a work is not at the top of the year-to-date ranking, there are quite a few works that have gained a certain level of popularity in book form, so it is possible that a work that was not expected to be made into an anime.
Summary
It is rare to find a work that has such a large gap between disc sales and distribution/playback numbers, so whether or not this Cautious Hero gets a second season will be a major factor in predicting a second anime season in the future.
However, even without that, it’s simply an interesting work, so I hope they make a second season happen!
