JC Staff did kinda compress the anime. :?

Though, doing the VN is recommendable to enjoy it more. :D
Since, it's... from KEY! 8-)

(Although, the PSP ver. isn't really fully translated but PC ver. is, and the EX ver.'s 3 additional route also, isn't really fully translated.)

Have some Kud

The direction of this episode was much, much better than the prior ones. If they continue with the same quality as this episode then this just might not be a disappointment.

If, after you done watching the anime and you found it dissatisfying , open youtube and watch the VN route there. It will bring you to tears (maybe)

I feel that the refrain will be similar to CLANNAD's After Story..

Oh and I hope that they'll include:
Riki confessing to Rin. I badly wanted the romantic scenes for these two. Just like at the VN ♡

I think the story is much more similar to Angel Beats, I guess

the difference is just both Riki and Rin return from dream world into reality, according to VN

This is an actual spoiler
Note to others: you'll get spoiled at the refrain if you've seen this..
I mean that it will be also very sorrowful like CLANNAD but yeah. The story is really more similar to Angel Beats!
Angel Beats! shows the death of the characters and how Yuzuru encouraged everyone to start a new life.
Little Busters! shows how they avoid their death by encouraging Riki and Rin to overcome the challenges they've met.

tbh I prefer the ending where Riki and Rin were the only ones alive. It's more realistic in my opinion.

Subbed PV because I can.

Note that I don't know Japanese fluently or anything, so translations for the 2nd song and the lines on-screen might be off

Also, it's proobably going to be 24 episodes, as they also have common route stuff left to do (assuming they do animate that).

I assume it's gonna be Kurugaya, Rin and flashbacks of how the original Little Busters group was formed when they were young.

At first I was confused as to how they were going to pull off Kurugaya's route given how it ended, but now that they combined it with Refrain, I can see how.

So I'm guessing that Riki comes to like Kurugaya??? so they're essentially following the romance of Kurugaya's route.

Yeah. I also noticed that Rin2 route. Even the scene of Naoe informing Suginami (about Rin and himself dating) was skipped. 'orz
Anyways, Thanks for the info. I should find some time to download episode 6.

Suddenly, I recalled the CGs of this scene. >.<
Masato throwing the baseball to Riki while fading, Kengo shaking hands at Riki while disappearing, and Kyousuke crying...
I hope I can expect a good ending by the staff.

As a frequent critic of JC Staff I have to say well done. I knew what was coming and still cried like a little girl ;_;

Overall this episode doesn't make the glaring problems with the series nonexistent, but it certainly helps to pull it from mediocrity. Lets hope JC Staff handles the Key magic in a somewhat decent way.

My opinion (contains spoilers):
SPOILER
I found really bad, boring and unoriginal the end of Little Busters! ~Refrain~ I'm quite dissapointing.
First:
Who the heck can survive an explosion? Kyosuke, Rin and Riki survived after that but how?

Second:
Why didn't they let Kyosuke die and let him as a "hero"?

Third and last:
I thought the end could be like the episode 11 or 12... Not a single tear dropped on my face.

Little Busters! ~Refrain~: 9/10 I'm honest, I cried a lot! ;_; much feels, Nice opening and Endings.
Last Episode: 4/10 bad ending

Watching the anime after having played the visual novel isn't really satisfying at all tbh. While the anime is still good it just feels like watching a short resumé of the actual visual novel. >.<

I also have the same opinion as yours.
I didn't really expected for the last episode to have a bad ending.
They should have let Riki pair up again with Rin

I really think that Rin and Riki should be the only ones that survived like how it was supposed to be without all the confusing "Riki goes back in time" shit.
It'll be much better that way (and more realistic too) in my opinion.

But since the original VN was written that way, no changing that part of the story I suppose ._.

That recalls me about Angel Beats! where each one of them disappears until Yuzuru was left.
Letting Riki and Rin live and face the reality that their friends died. Suddenly, I think of the EX girls (Sasami, Kanata, Saya).
