>Why isn't there more things like this?
Because you're a noob who hasn't bothered to check and see that there's actually tons of stuff like that out there.

>>22064
don't be rude. there may be tons of stuff like azumanga but azumanga is just very well done.

>>22066
The original creator didn't think so, that's why there's no Yotsuba anime.

>>22068
He didn't like it because he thought the characters were sexualized too much.

Tomo is the best girl

>>22087
You misspelled sakaki.

>>22089
this guy has it.

She looks far better with short(er) hair.

If you say so...

Well, that was really fun and now I miss my childhood days. I wish graduation episodes didn't make me feel so sentimental.

Does the manga have any episodes that weren't animated?

>>22073
Really? As in, the characters were sexualized by the studio in the adaptation, or the new fans brought in by the anime were doing the sexualizing? The latter view makes sense to me.

I'm kind of surprised I've managed to go all these years without hearing that about Azuma. I do remember him making a few different remarks in interviews about how he didn't think Yotsuba needed an adaptation, that the 'point' of manga isn't always to eventually be made into an anime.

>>22195
There are a few bits that didn't, but well over 90% of the material in the manga is in the anime.

>>22196
azuma is asking for unheard of amounts of money for the yots anime rights and most studios are somewhat shy of working with him because he has a series of DUI and drug arrests which could end up being bad publicity

>>22206
See now this is the most logical reason I've heard yet for there being no yots anime.
I've never bought this bs about him not liking how azu was done for a minute. Pride is bullshit, it always comes down to money.

>>22207
They aren't mutually exclusive. Pride can be bought, but some people's cost more.

>>22206
The plot thickens.
I find the idea of Azuma having DUIs and drug arrests hilarious for some reason.

>>22284
In the dub, how did they change the whole Chiyo-chan going to america and talking english?

Such a cute anime...

>>22285
They didn't from what I remember. They probably wanted to avoid a situation like Clock Tower 2's localization; or every Japanese film localization during the 50' and 60's.

>>22206
Google is pointing me to neither. Please provide a link.
