Dog eared girl not dying in the hotel was some bullshit. She caught a cold? Fuck that. Damaged memory thing seems like an excuse for the story to be made up as it goes along too.
Overall it ain't great and the plot trainwrecks massively at the end, but it has fairly endearing characters. It's gone down in anime history as "the show that killed Anime no Chikara", not that the block really needed much help to do that anyway.

I really don't think you can blame Occult Academy on the block's death when all three of the initial shows were announced at the same time.
If any one single show was responsible, I think Night Raid is far more likely to be the culprit - I guess that trying to make an anime about Manchuria was always going to be a ratings/sponsorship disaster, even if they hadn't made it a rather poor superpowered spy show.

What are the odds that a last-minute success would have mitigated a previous disaster? I wasn't aware that Soranowoto, Senkou no Night Raid, and Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin were all announced at the same time, so in that case I suppose any of them could have been the show that "saved" or "killed" the block depending on airing order and success relative to the other entries.
Being locked into three cours of unproven original material seems like an unwise strategy in retrospect.
So with the existence of tulpas, wouldn't it be possible to make manifest your own waifu? With enough discipline and training, I think the average anime nerd would be able to project their own Horo or Miku.
The problem would be when they take on a life of their own and go off to NTR their creators, at which point you'd have to destroy them.
So I now basically understand why this is sprung on people as a slice of life school comedy without mention of what happens later. Jesus. And the boat thing.

Considering it now. So I understand the anime takes one of the few bad endings...but without spoiling anything, is there a worse ending in the VN? Because...wow. I can't imagine there is.
