The virus may have just made it drop below a critical level. not enough advertisement I guess No, I think its because its an inferior product. Samurai 8 was about samurai, which means that it naturally competes with samurai anime and its base-line is against samurai series. If you consider series like Samurai X or Bleach, the series probably doesn't meet expectations for fans of the genre. Both series do the job of an exceptional samurai-based shonen, Samurai X with its realistic, historic take on samurai, and Bleach with its more super powered-based version.

So I think the market as no apetite for a lower variation of either. Even if Kishimoto's name and art style is attached to it. Samurai Seven too now that you mention it
