What is required for a manga to get an anime adaptation?

[Star_Of_Hope]

I am sure ratings and reviews of the manga matter a lot.
Do you know anything else that needs to be there for a manga to get an anime adaptation?

Seems like it just needs to be popular enough to get a studio to pay attention to it. That and enough source material.

oh wow lol
and does that mean the mangaka and any other influence got nothing to do with getting an anime adaptation?

Popularity. What else?

Popular or the author is really good.

 

[Kaname]

Probably enough story and interesting sales of the series to get noticed.
Only then they can make the anime a success as well.
