The reason is the low sales of the BD and DVD releases in Japan, according to Shunji Suzuki, the director of the Evangelion franchise, when he went to the industry meeting. So, we can laugh/smile/grin more often.Īs of this writing (November 2018), there's still no news whether a Nichijou second season will be coming soon. But (rather - precisely,) this is one of the reasons why we are involved in this Wikia, to enrich & share our understanding about the world around us. To be honest, some jokes are still lost to us. If anything, please consider this as a plea for translator teams to reconsider the scope/completeness of their works (for future projects). Q: Do we condone/support piracy with above statement?Ī: Rather than pitting legal vs pirated, our interest is on the subject itself: Nichijou. Q: What's the fun if you have to explain the joke to be funny? To better deliver the jokes across, fansubs give footnotes/extra info accompanying the speeches. While the official one tries its best to give smooth/perfect translations, the former chooses to leave some rough edges.
In this aspect fansubs do more justice than the official one. In short, if you have no/minimum knowledge about Japanese culture, the jokes might miss you most of the time. It would miss most of the time if one doesn't have sufficient understanding. A few instances of these categories include ' Helvetica Standard', 'Short Thoughts', and ' Things We Think are Cool'.ĭue to its randomness, the jokes tend to be hit or miss. Scenes within a category could have the same running gag or general structure.
Many of the scenes in Nichijou are categorized based on the title of the scene. The series is commonly considered to be a sketch comedy, where the gags are presented in a series of separate scenes, of which some are connected to each other chronologically or in context. It is currently licensed and officially translated into English by Funimation. In addition, although the series could be legally watched on Crunchyroll and VRV under the name of My Ordinary Life, and later Nichijou, at one point of time, it was taken off Crunchyroll in 2014 and briefly returned to the platform in 2018 before Funimation ended its partnership with Crunchyroll in the same year. Regular Japanese channel networks do not air the series anymore. It was aired in Japan from April 11, 2011, to September 26, 2011. It's currently discontinued, without any relevant news of it returning for another season. It was based on the manga, and was animated and produced by Kyoto Animation.
