Ah, I see. I think. I haven't played Clannad(nor have any desire to) to actually understand there. Also, PC for anime VNs? Are there any of those things around? As far as I know, they usually stay in portables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing VNs on consoles is quite amazing, just saying. Also PP for PC only happened during the localization so pretty sure right now they'll announce it only for vita/ps4, not much point in giving people hope just yet.

Mkilbride Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Why is this anime so damn popular? It's fucking annoying me. No other anime in recent memory has been. SAO had 1/10th of the hype around it. I honestly can't think of the last anime that had people acting this way. It's stupid. Every forum or website I go to, people are talking about this, Waifu Wars and other creepy shit. It's a incomplete anime, based on an incomplete Manga. dfbreezy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I'm simply less connected with the internet subforums, but isn't this pretty normal per season? There is always one anime that gets picked out of the bunch and becomes DE BEST ANIME EVERS! but is almost completely forgotten once it is over. And yes it is still an ongoing story, but it was originally a web novel, that got picked up to be a light novel, which was adapted into a manga, which was adapted into the anime, which is going to be adapted into a VN. God Damn do the Japanese work their intellectual properties to death. Also I love how you call "Waifu Wars" creepy shit.... in a VN COMMUNITY! That is just gold. Although I totally get hating something simply because it's popular, I fucking hate evangelion even though I havn't seen a single episode. However, I know pretty much everything about the damn show from how overly popular it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcosis Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 VN adaptations made of multi-intellectual property are usually very poor, I wouldn't set my hopes high for this; it didn't really change much, aside from a bunch of exceptions. They will milk money off the franchise till it's fresh and people still enjoy it... which won't really last that long, considering the average modern consumer has an attention span that lasts shorter than a couple weeks at most, when it comes to good things.

sanahtlig Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Gematsu: Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World- Death or Kiss launches for PS4 and PS Vita on March 23 in Japan Quote The visual novel game follows an original story different from the original work and anime called “Another Episode with the Candidates for Next Ruler.” The story sees a “Beauty Queen Election” carried out as a prelude to the “Next Ruler Election,” the winner of which is given a “noble weapon said to bring about good luck.” But the victory prize is actually cursed and afflicts Subaru with the “Curse of Death.” The only way to lift the curse is a “kiss from a beautiful girl,” so players will have to socialize with the heroines with the end goal of getting a kiss and escaping Subaru’s fate of death. The candidates for the “Beauty Queen Election” are as follows: Emilia, Ram, Rem, Beatrice, Felt, Priscilla, Anastasia, and Crusch. Those looking for a VN-retelling of the source material (perhaps with additional routes) are going to be severely disappointed. The synopsis isn't even coherent.

littleshogun Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Since the VN will be released on console, my reaction here would be whatever ie didn't care. And if some people wishing it in English, I think it'll take very long time here to achieve that (Or worse will be not translated at all).

Attack on Titan was an immensely entertaining, gripping human drama. Re:Zero can be rather bland at times and the setting is fairly generic, while the protagonist is Joe Everyman. It's a good show but not outstanding. dfbreezy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Well, I don't like it much either, lol. But it's hard to deny how popular it has become. I see Rem vs Ram waifu wars crop up in the most unexpected of places, such as random twitch stream chats. And it's all over social media right now.

AoT was the last like this. AoT turned out to be good, but not great. I mean hell, did you know there's a filter on reddit and the mods have had to put all Re:zero related posts in one topic because they were flooding the subreddit so much, you couldn't see ANYTHING else. I'm sure this anime is good as well, but I make a habit of not watching incomplete anime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosRaven Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hmm, animes are rarely good those days so I'm not particularly convinced about Re:Zero living up to the hype. It doesn't look particular impressive either. Attack on Titan was kinda fun for a few episodes but got repetitive and boring pretty fast. Especially with it's typical shounen problem of characters trying to compensate a lack of competence with decibel. Dropped it halfway... The description of the anime also sounds like it would follow the current trend of just adding gore to make an anime appear 'deep' and try to overshadow the flat story and dull characters with it.
