HMN Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 i still wake up shivering and crying from bad dreams about the horrible anime adaptation of Little Busters....and that wasn't that hard to ruin... i can envision hundreds of ways to completely destroy grisaia... why is it that hard to adapt a vn? i mean, i get that they have to compress 50-60 hours into 24 episodes or a little more/less...but at least make separate routes, why do the always try to push all the routes into the same temporal line? what's so bad about covering different routes as "what if"? It wouldn't make sense to be in let's say makina route for example In one episode and then shift into amane in the next one right? Also anime adaptions are really hard to make because they have make the story understandable to those who didn't actually play it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestyle80 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 October hrmmm...i still wont believe it till i see more concrete proof xD but still thats a good sign i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShadowOtaku Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I don't know about this... Just read a small review on the internetz and they made a new heroine or something? The only thing I am hoping for is that they will include ALL of the routes and not just stick with classic Amane or Yumiko route and also include Sachi's and Michiru's Life Story. Edit: Found the website :c http://seventhstyle.com/2014/04/28/grisaia-no-kajitsu-not-looking-too-confident/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berilium Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 They are publicizing this anime with fanservice? Reallllllllllly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suikashoujo Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 They are publicizing this anime with fanservice? Reallllllllllly? To be fair, it's almost impossible to find an anime with a VN backround that DOESN'T get publicized with fanservice. Especially not one with 18+ content. I mean, even the LitBus anime had a lot of fanservicey images going around, and the actual show didn't have a whole lot of it (except a few scenes from the game).

Berilium Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This VN has a lot more serious elements that are more interesting than this. Well, no point in whining about it. But what I want to say is that people will label this anime as : "Oh another fanservice" because of things like this >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatsujin Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I don't care if it is fanservice or not. I don't want this to be utter shit animation or art. I want a masterpiece from every corner ... :/ If they deliver that, with the music/ost from the VN, I'll purchase all the BD volumes!

Rose Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Animation aside, the art in the pic doesn't really match the novel. I mean, at first they kinda look alike but take a close look and you'll see the differences, I hope they fix that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatsujin Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yeah, there's few variations. :/ ... I'm hyped for all the critical parts from each heroine! I wonder if they'll do them one by one and then maybe the end of the series it will hint for a second season!? .. Haha .. well, who knows.

Rose Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I just hope for a set of 2-3 episodes for each route, high quality Angelic Howl would be so awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 The chara-design changed a bit, they have to because it has to be fitting for an anime rather than a VN. Sadly the chara-designer, a guy from Shaft, is approximately the better known person in the staff. And the studio is some anecdotal company. And this will probably be 1-cour which probably can't adapt more than one route (how would they even do the other routes without things not making sense anyway?) So yeah, chances of that being good are slim. And chances of people who didn't read the VN to care about it are even more slim >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yosuga no Sora did it, not sure if al lthe routes but anyway, the first episodes were like the first half, then the routes came. Every girl got 2-3 episodes for their routes and then once it ended, the next episode was back to the point where the game would have continued if you didn't entered that route, something like this. I'm still waiting for Yosuga no Sora translation but imagine the route system goes like Grisaia, you'll understand how it worked. But I'll admit that once the first route ended and the anime went back in time I was like: "wait, wtf? oh shit, is this a visual novel?".

Berilium Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yeah at that time I didn't know anything about visual novels and I had to look dow to the comments for the explanation about the different routes being adapted -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I know it's hard to jump from an intrinsically non-linear medium to one that is usually more linear, but surely there must be a more elegant solution. Or maybe just mingle stuff, or make only one route, I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I don't know, I enjoy it this way because for example, if they made the whole anime using Amane's route, people who disliked it would most likely dislike the anime as well, also Michiru route fans would feel kinda down not seeing their favorite one animated. It gives everyone a taste of it, but I'm not sure if they'll use the same plot as the novel, there was an image long ago of Kazuki by Amane's side holding a gun, they could make something totally new.

Novelaer Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 That's a pretty damn lazy way to do things.

Or maybe just mingle stuff, or make only one route, I dunno. Yosuga no Sora was quite good, but only the last two episodes really mattered, since almost everyone watched it for the incest. As for the Grisaia anime; from what I've read (Seventhstyle, anime forums, etc.), the expectations are really low. Maybe because it's hard to produce an anime with just one storyline, that's adapted from a visual novel with more than one storyline, and each storyline being unique and adding up to other storylines aka. routes. I, myself, must say that my expectations aren't that high either. It probably will fail, but I really hope for a miracle to happen and it becoming almost as good as the visual novel.

Berilium Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How did they do it with Kanon? I remember all the girls had their share of the story. I never read the VN and I don't remember a lot from the anime so I don't know if it was good at all :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 We have another visual and the cast. Takahiro Sakurai : Yūji KazamiRyouko Tanaka : Yumiko SakakiKaori Mizuhash : Michiru MatsushimaTomoe Tamiyasu : Makina IrisuAi Shimizu : Sachi Komine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I saw that news but the visual is actually the same as the one from a few weeks ago and the cast was already confirmed to be the same as the one in the VN. So the only news is Yuuji's seiyuu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 umm uhh... Tries desperately to find a way to redeem himself* Its better quality? Well the seiyuu for Yuuji sounds alright. Not sure if/how it'll work with the rest of the voices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I liked his work most of the time, I think it'll be just fine. Just to name a few that I know, Takahiro Sakurai is the seiyuu of: Kururugi Suzaku (Code Geass); Griffith (Berserk - only in the Ougon Jidaihen movies); Kira Izuru (Bleach); Sasori (Naruto Shippuden); Yamato (Sukitte Ii na yo); Kiyomaro (Gash Bell). There's a complete list on MAL if anyone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
