Is Tenkai Knights Really Over, Or Are We Just Assuming Since They Haven't Given Any Word Yet?
Is Tenkai Knights really over, or are we just assuming since they haven't given any word yet?
I am not sure, I personally won’t give my hopes onto it too much due to Spin Master. (First off, this is just my personal opinion on the matter!)
They claim that they don’t have a clue about the anime, but they treated the anime as their main advertisement source. (As stated in this article from 2013 -> http://www.licensemag.com/license-global/spin-masters-tenkai-takeover ) The anime was on a incredibly bad time slot, thus word on the products only spread slowly. (Even though it was weekends, but which kids wake up at 6 AM on the weekend? When I was a child I used to sleep long on the weekends.) I mean how are people supposed to know about your product if you don’t advertise it properly? People told me that there was literally not a single TV ad for the Toys or the TV Show. They also never seemed to repond to fans asking about stock shortages, and they never seemed to inform people when and where what product would be available. It was all a mess in my opinion. (Don’t let me get started about what happened in Europe, or I’ll just get mad again.)
Spin Master most probably deemed Tenkai not successfully enough like they expected and Toys started to get pulled off american shelves around the beginning of 2015, as reported by a lot of american fans. A couple of people such as Mel, Taaron and Meotashi have also contacted Spin Master on the matter and were all given pretty much the same answer. Spin Master stopped manufacturing Tenkai Knights toys. (They state “for now” but god knows if this isn’t just another blatant lie.)
Oh wonderful 360° marketing, how could you’ve just gone wrong, am I right?
There’s a slim chance, that Shogakukan-Shueisha and BONES might do their own thing and work on a second season. But I don’t bet on it until I’ll see something. So personally yeah I think this is the end. At least for now, that is if Spin Master ever sees it fit to revive the franchise, since currently they’re all busy with Bakugan or something. No offense but if they keep pulling the same BS over and over then the Bakugan revival will be simply a failure, and I wouldn’t even be surprised.
TL;DR (because I wrote a mess of a text, sorry): I won’t believe anything until I see concrete things that S2 really exists like those Social Media people tried to sell us.

Adrien is not a cat - Part 7 Yeah, that’s completely normal…whenyou’reacat (post-reveal)
[part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6]
Pokemon ages like a person
It was born in 1996

Everyone loved it and showered it with affection when it was 1-3 years old

It began learning and improving and gaining its identity when it turned 4

When it turned 7, it got less attention, but was improving nontheless

This is the age you could really see just how far along it evolved

It kinda stayed the same from ages 7-13

Like most teenagers, it started seeing things in black and white when it turned 14

And it was obsessed with reproductive chromosomes by the time it turned 17

This is also where it got a new dimension and a new perspective on life

When it was 18, it was finally an adult, and decided to indulge in its childhood one last time

And now it’s 20 years old, and it’s ready to keep evolving, this time as an adult

And it’s shooting for the stars
The secret fitness center?
The secret reck room? (and a show playing with a full book shelf?)
the secret big empty space that’s great for parties?
What is this!? A Fortress or a Frat House? XD
(but in all seriousness, where did all this come from!? o.0)
