zoom909 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Neat! I was thinking about starting this VN, but now I think I'll wait for the anime instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shcboomer Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 It's been a long time coming, that's for sure. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcosis Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Meh. I already got sick of moege. Might take a look if the art and animation are going to be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garejei Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 First reaction was "why not Eustia", then I realized moe sells more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosebleed Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I wat to have high hopes but anime adaptations of this stuff usually tend to disappoint. Nonetheless always great to see a vn animated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken2260 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Frankly speaking, the game lacks real content and largely replies on the characters' mindless conversation to tell the story (if there is any at all). I am only interested in how are they going to take care of different routes' development. Moe characters and supposed-to-be-funny conservation...Nothing more to be expected.

garejei Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Especially since Eustia's storyline is fairly anime-ready and would be easy to adapt, plus it's more or less linear and has a One True End so it wouldn't be a problem to figure out which route to animate.

Clephas Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 It is a visually beautiful game, but I doubt it will make the transition well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolverk Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Neat! I was thinking about starting this VN, but now I think I'll wait for the anime instead. Same here. So whoo hoo. First reaction was "why not Eustia", then I realized moe sells more. True on the first. But never the less, moe is good as well at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephisto Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 First reaction was "why not Eustia", then I realized moe sells more. Exactly, Eustia's story reads like an anime, and having the fight scenes animated would be incredible since the game didn't have many Caim sprites/CGs.

I'll admit, I also want to see 小動物-Tia or Licia animated... this thread is now about eustia, DISCUSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoom909 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Well TBH, I'd be glad if Eustia got animated as well...I like anime enough that I always want everything to be animated if I have any interest in it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not think about that. Caim animted would be no short of epic, now I am really hoping for an Eusita anime. Damn moe! I want Caiim!!

Mephisto Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Eustia herself is actually pretty moe, although the story isn't. Collete (colette?) is really moe as well. On the topic of Eustia, this should be the opening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzzo_1MQ5i0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narcosis Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Everything nowadays is moe to a bigger or lesser extent. Even stories like the one in Eustia, which should normally leave a depressive impact on players, do not cause that anymore, mainly because certain things are moefied, while they shouldn't.I'd love to see an adaptation of Eustia, but I doubt it will ever happen. The only things that still sell in Japan are high-school centered comedies/drama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephisto Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I don't think "moe" had an impact on the story at all. There was quite a ridiculous amount of emotional release caused by Eustia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I'm sure we'll be getting a Muramasa anime in lolnever Eustia may have moege character design and humor thrown in there from time to time, but it still had an impact on me. For instance I was gutted after Melt's death. and that scene when Licia finds her father's message in the crown was really emotional. That was one of my favorite bits probably.

Yeah I literally said that out loud in real life simply reading you mention that and recalling that scene. I was in denial about Melt's death for a while as well, but I somehow accepted it after a bit. Licia's entire chapter though.. holy crap. From the scene convincing Varrius to fight, the note in crown, Gau, and how things didn't go exactly the way Caim wanted to, man that was a brilliant chapter. Also, that moment in chapter 5 when Colette reappears in the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolverk Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Moe was hardly the main part of the vn, neither did I feel it did any disservice to the vn. Hey, I'm sure we'll be getting a Muramasa anime in lolnever Eustia may have moege character design and humor thrown in there from time to time, but it still had an impact on me. .... Let's not forget the true route ending . It personally made me depressed for days later lol. It was horrible imo. Tiaaaaaaa. *sobs* OH MY GOD.

From the scene convincing Varrius to fight, the note in crown, Gau, and how things didn't go exactly the way Caim wanted to, man that was a brilliant chapter. I still remember when we talked about Eustia on skype and you were right at the scene. You stopped and left like 1 min before you get to know what really happened at that scene. I was like READ just a LITTLE more. Hahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephisto Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I know right.. I was like Oh looks like 娼館街 is fine. K, time to go to a dentist appointment. Come back an hour later. WAIT WHAT IS GOING ON DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME CAIM WAS FUCKING HALLUCINATING WAIT WHAT THE FUCK. Oh, the bar fell, well shit. Doesn't mean Melt is dead yet, she might not have been in the bar. Lol why are you so worried Caim. Melt, this is when you come in and tease him for worrying. Wait wait is Melt actually gone? ふざけねぇ！ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggressor Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Don't forget about Gau - it'd be great to see her animated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clephas Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Two major issues with transition from VN to anime. 1. The more complex the 'internal' aspect of the story is, the more difficult it is to transform it into an anime. Grisaia, whose story is at least half internal to Yuuji, will definitely suffer from the transition. Hitsujikai also possesses a strong internal element, which will make the transition difficult. 2. Paths- This is a problem seen in the original FSN anime and the non-existent Tsukihime anime. It is also seen in various other conversions to a lesser extent. It basically demands the anime-maker either choose a single path or steal elements from all the paths to make a final ending. For a moege, it isn't really hard to turn it into an anime, because there is so little distinction between the paths in terms of atmosphere or events. However, with a game like Grisaia or Hitsujikai... Edit: Understand, the average moege will just end up as a perfect 'harem story' anime, which is just fine (Shuffle as an example where the anime actually surpassed the original VN), but for a story-focused VN that isn't a kinetic novel...
