New Mahoromatic Special Due…why?

Please excuse any errors or crummy writing, I haven’t written in a while and didn’t have anyone to edit this -_-
In the world of anime, there are a lot of things that deserve another season, a resurrection, a second shot if you will. When I got news that ecchi maid anime Mahoromatic was getting a new special I was both enthralled and…well…a bit pissed. As most of the other weeaboobies know, Mahoromatic is my all time favorite show and I most certainly did my fair share of running around and shouting when I found out it was getting a special made. But as excited as I was, it was bittersweet news.
Mahoromatic is your typical run of the mill ecchi maid series with boobies and panties flying around everywhere. In complete honesty, although it’s my favorite show, there’s nothing incredibly special about it, until you get to the end of the series. Mahoromatic ran for two seasons, plus a summer special, and out of everything the show puts out, the show earned infamy by its ending. I won’t go into too much detail, because I’m usually bad about spoiling things. But I think anyone whose watched the show will agree that the ending of Mahoromatic was probably the most god awful half-assed piece of poop I’ve ever watched. It honestly ruined the whole show for me and probably a lot of other viewers out there.
Having said this though, it sparks the question, what the hell, or WHY the hell would anyone want to resurrect such an already putrid and rotting show from the grave after six years? They already did this once with the summer special that was released after the end of the series. The summer special didn’t pick up at all from where the ending left off and at least to me, was a smack in the face while still trying to recover from the ending. I mean, I’m pretty pumped that there’s something new that’s going to come out from Mahoromatic since I haven’t seen anything new for so long. But I’m willing to bet that it’s going to be something completely irrelevant from the ending once again.
The special is titled: Mahoromatic Special Tadaima – Okaerii, and with no speculations of what the special is going to be about, we can only hope they do the right thing and make a better ending for the series, because lord knows it needs one. But even those hopes are abruptly crushed with word that mangaka Bow Ditama, the original artist behind the Mahoromatic manga, whose recent works consist of Kissxsis and Fight Ippatsu! Juuden-Chan!! which included an assortment of unnecessary peepee, tentacles and erotic incest would be working on the special, fans are only left with the sad assumption that the new Mahoromatic special will be as already expected, an ecchi joyride. And as we will all be smiling gleefully when it finally airs on October 17th, I’m sure that myself, along with other die-hard fans, although enjoying the special with much pleasure, will find a small tear traveling down their cheek in bittersweet disappointment.
