Blacksmith anime Seiken no Blacksmith / The Sacred Blacksmith has driven fans into a frenzy with the sudden announcement that the TV version is just the usual Bowlderised advertisement for an erotically upgraded DVD release set to include plenty of sales boosting Cecily nudity…
Amusingly, the Blu-ray edition’s Amazon sales ranking soared from 1,113 at 9PM to 234 at 1AM the same night, after the news spread.
hohohoho.. there's a loli squad that going around -ve peoples (just because they dont have similar taste) eh.. This are gonna be fun to see how many -ve votes per day I can get :D
Maid's right, all curves and massive breasts do is detract from the more important features such as how friggin cute someone is. Plus they look deformed a lot of the time. Truly the "ideal" is kinda ugly IMO. But everyone has their own opinions so whatever you get off on.
Sounds like a desperate sales ploy. Blacksmith is so generic I would prefer it if they spent more time making it more interesting.
And Cecily is the most annoying character in the show. If she spent more time fighting and less time talking she may be halfway decent with a sword.
Having said that, if Aria turned up nude I would be pre-ordering right now.
that's the power of nudity for you right there. people keep complaining about generic boring animes but only buy those generic boring animes with naked chicks. people should learn to stop complaining about unimaginative aninmes
But if it comes to a decision between naked Blacksmith girls or the limited edition final discs of Bakemonogatari I'd take the latter in a heart beat. Quality>>>>>generic nudity
I always like Manglobe shows, but this one is not so good.. They usually make brilliant original series, but seiken no blacksmith is a generic manga adaptation, i guess that's the problem..
The action scenes are pretty good, though
It's clear that additional content in the DVD/Blu-Ray release is becoming more common nowadays. Bandai even went as far as omitting scenes for even their Bandai Channel broadcast and instead featuring them exclusively on video. I applaud them for having a very clever marketing strategy and mitigating piracy/fansubs.

MOAR
This Show Is Really Good, And Im Pleased To Here There Will Be Some Oppai-Nipple- Action =) Cant Wait For The Next Ep!!!
Nice
Great. Now include some Lisa nipples too and all will be complete =3
Plywoods dont need nipples!
Need moar!
Hell yea, superior upgrade for a superior Serie
Lol wut?
They add visible nipples and the sales spike?
My God, It's so easy.
+1000 places in a couples of hours , they learned the secret of otaku-marketing :P
"If you want it to sell... Give it F*cking BOOBS!" :P
HAHA. JOLLY JACK FTW.
dont you people get tired of 9 year old naked elfs ?
No.
Hell no. Observe the epic flatness in the manga page. I popped Bukkake Marmalade, I tell ya.
Eff no. I become the very opposite of being tired.
All we're tired of is 40yo 8ft women with boobs and hips 10x larger than their heads.
I Lol'd
At least I'm sure its a woman.. not a surfboard :O
Wow. Awful sarcasm.
Surfers love their surfboards.

Simply put... No.
Yea tired alright, after a good round of fapping
1,113 to 234 in sales huh? That seems to be a bit off.
Anyways, why not moar loli nudity?
sales rank
Why must Japan censor those pictures?
So people buy the dvds and blueray to see everything.
Why buy the Blu-Ray & DVD's you can just come to Sancom and have Artefact post scrumptious 'Vid-Caps' after the fact.
They want to show it on TV Tokyo and they don't allow nudity. I think there are other stations that do the same also.
International and foreign demands.
(cough cough UNICEF and EN)
if sex is involved it will sell
US$ 71.90 for two episodes..?
Verah Interesting :3
It's sad that anime sales are equivalent to the amount of nipples it shows.
If that was the case then the most popular dvd and blue-ray releases would have nudity but none of the most popular shows do.
Because K-On was such a nipplefest?
well,now....
....i'll be seriously pissed if we don't have lisa nipples in anime,too! >:D
I stopped watching for the story and kept watching for the fanservice. I am not disappointed.
want hawt nekkid loli elf
uhh.. The plot is so damn generic but at least the show is well animated
Her shoulders are so broad and manly. I'd feel so protected in her arms
Sounds like a desperate sales ploy. Blacksmith is so generic I would prefer it if they spent more time making it more interesting.

Yeah, good point dammit.
But if it comes to a decision between naked Blacksmith girls or the limited edition final discs of Bakemonogatari I'd take the latter in a heart beat. Quality>>>>>generic nudity
Luckily, Bakemonogatari has both.
but no nipples if i recall correctly..
...whut?
katanah! > Broadsword
Axe beats katana (if you need to hack up an armor wearer).
All hail the Axe!
Yay for Lisa!
I always like Manglobe shows, but this one is not so good.. They usually make brilliant original series, but seiken no blacksmith is a generic manga adaptation, i guess that's the problem..
The action scenes are pretty good, though
did i just see her right nipple in the 2nd pic??? it's right under her wist.
I wouldn't recommend Play Asia since they are $20 more then CD Japan. I was surprised to see it that expensive when going to the site.
The breastplate destruction by the ice monster would be a great place to start...heh...
Hell yeah, topless loli elf <33
Minorin, is that you..?
Now I have a better reason to watch this show.
Lisa <3~
Win anime is win
Hey, what does this vote do?
Overrated show is overrated.
Dam look at that waist.
This actually explains a lot
But really. How many of you buy Japanese BDs anyway.
Fuck yes can;t wait
Damnit, I'm already 4 eps in.. now I have to put this series on hold and wait for the DVD releases.
I like ecchi, I like the art of blacksmithing, I like swordplay. May not be the deepest or most engaging anime/manga ever, but god damn I love it
Hear, hear!
Seeing the amount of fanservices in DVD/BD version of anime these days proves that they finally understand the TITS or GTFO rule.
"...TV version is just the usual Bowlderised advertisement for an erotically upgraded DVD release..."
Perhaps the same could be said of all TV animes these days...
DEM HIPS
HNNNNNNNG
I wish I could wake up with hair like that
Hmm, I know it's only of secondary importance behind "OMG bewbs!" but is this series actually any GOOD?
You must first ask yourself this question:
Do you like typical RPG plots?
If the answer is yes, then you might just like this series. If not, say away.
The manga has a nice clean art style. Oh and it has nipples already, so marvelous.
Moar ruined anime.

This show is not even good, but sells well because of tits and ass. Mangalobe disappoints me with this crappy anime.
I am suddenly filled with the desire to lick the chests of little elf girls...
HEY LOOK ITS TORA_DRUAGA
Strange... It's almost as if unicef and anti-pirate people are rating comments badly in favor of their own views.
