There are a lot of things that grind my gears and this is one of them: Kill la Kill fans wanting a new season of the series.  Or worse....CONFIRMING that there is a new season without any credible source.
Ok....let's stop right here and point this out.....I LOVE Kill la Kill.  This is one of my all time favorite anime.  Sure it's.....kinky....but yet it has a purpose for all the fan service other than making a male hooked which most anime nowadays do.  So yes, like the fandom, I enjoy Kill la Kill very much.  HOWEVER......I am NOT asking for a second season.  That doesn't mean I won't get excited if it should happen, but it drives me nuts that everyone wants a second season of this anime.  Here are my top reasons why the fans should stop this nonsense immediately.

1. THE ENDING:  I won't spoil the series for those who haven't watched yet, but the series had an ending that has an end to all ending.  Even in the OVA, sure it looked like it would come back to the usual stuff, but once that was over...it proved it was all over.  If it were to hint at something and we didn't get another season, then fans have a right to complain.  EX: we should get season 4 of Sailor Moon Crystal.  The ending was vague.  What happens next?  However, because Kill la Kill has no foreshadowing, we can confirm that the series is over.

  2. QUALITY NOT QUANTITY:  I'm a fan of broadcasting, and I always believed that if you do 5 seasons of a show, then you have rerun value.  However, there are very rare exceptions to the rule.  You have your one season wonders which we'll talk about in a second.  Then on the flip side, you may do 5 seasons, maybe even 10 if your lucky, but somewhere along the line it may get to the point where fans would say STOP!  A show should not be judged by how many episodes you made, but how well you perform.  Neon Genesis Evangelion is an example of how long this show is well known to anime junkies around the globe, but all they made were 26 episodes plus a few movies, and when they made more stuff, they just went ahead and did another retelling of the story.  And outside of anime, The Honeymooners is one of the greatest TV sitcoms of all time yet only 39 episodes that were rerun for over 50 years.  People still laugh at the same jokes over and over again.  Why?  It was a high quality show.  Again, quality not quantity.  Right One Piece, right Simpsons, right Pokemon (whose quality may go downhill this year)?

3. IT'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE ANYTIME SOON: When Kill la Kill first came out, it became almost an instant hit.  Not to the extent that Attack on Titan or Cowboy Bebop did, but enough to have enough fans that want to watch, do fan art, buy merchandise, discuss til the end of time, cosplay, and much much more.  Hell, this anime even ended up on Cartoon Network's Toonmai (well, it's adult swim, but still)....they do not pick up small titles like Yuuki Yunna or something like that.  They wanted anime with staying power.  Sword Art Online, Gundam, Dragonball Z, and Akame ga Kill are all popular titles.  As long as there is a major fan base, the show will never go away.  It's not a failure, it was one season for a reason.

If they should do another project, it shouldn't be another season.  Maybe a movie project ala Madoka Magica or Evangelion should come to order.  Or why not another anime that is a spin off?  How about an anime about the Elite 4?  You know...a prequal talking in grave detail how they became the Elite 4.  How about give Mako Mancachoke her own anime?  It'd be just as entertaining, and yeah the action packed stuff may be gone, but the humor is still there for a slice of life anime starring Mako.  These ideas do not kill the story of Kill la Kill, but rather retell or enhance it.  A story that helps make the anime what it is.  It's not about sex, it's about clothing and relationships.  It's about enjoying your favorite characters.  It's about realizing whose the true bad guy as good guys aren't always just wearing the white hats.  Kill la Kill is awesome as it is, and if it means the same story over and over again, I'm alright with that.

Actually, a Rei Hououmaru spin off is not a bad idea either.......
