That's why we wait for the translation of the VN to be finished, fan-made or not. Anime tends to wash out certain things to compromise for the reach it gets.

Also, it's a Key anime? When did that happen?

I'd never re-read a VN in it's entirety. They are often far too long for the pleasure I'd derive from one.

Well, Jun Maeda doesn't write scripts as much anymore, so RIP my beloved heart-wrenching moments.

I just watched episode 3. The whole double power with channeling was predictable from the start with the sibling information we gained last episode so this episode wasn't as surprising as it could've been. My opinions of the show still haven't changed. I gotta admit though, the way Tomori can give info on a location immediately after water guy points it out is amazing.

Darn it, That guy is way too good to stop writing. The scenes he made were so emotional and awesome. They shall be missed. I wonder if there's anyone who could replace him?

That's probably the anime, since it is going to start off as an anime. He did write scripts for previous VNs though, as well as Angel Beats (That should've appeared btw)

If we are going VNs then Ryukishi07 is infinitely better

Well, their style is similar, but replace emotional tears in Maeda's work with horror. That's Ryukishi07 for you.
07 himself even said he was a Maeda fan and was inspired by his writing style.

But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so props to you.

Even in heart-wrenching moments and getting the audeience to empathise Ryukishi is better. I never mentioned horror.

Lol. I meant having read both Clannad and the Higurashi: When They Cry Onikakushi-Hen (roughly the same time period) I felt like the empathetic elements are similar, but what stood out more in 07's work are the horror elements. I still haven't quite read Umineko or Rose Guns Days, but I'll get there.

If I ever finish building my keyboard...

EDIT: My mistake, Majikoi S was just released. I'm putting that in my backlog atm.

Empathise. British-English > American-English
Thanks for correcting Audience.

I recall another Key + P.A. collaboration where the protagonist and the group of misfits compete using baseball. But it's on the tip of my tongue... :^)

At this point I find Yusa and Misa to have just a more extreme version of Nao's personality. It's just Yusa is predominantly cutesy and Nao is 'aggressive' (Can't think of a more appropriate word atm)

I think most of Key's works always includes a baseball scene, idk why.

Btw I can't help but agree with the fact that this anime is gonna suffer in the same way as Angel Beats did with it's horrible pacing.
I mean, there's endless amounts of potential in the story, but they're just rushing through everything way too quickly without any proper buildup. It's like watching a short summary of the story rather than the whole story itself.
The recent "confession-breakup" scene in episode 3 that came out of nowhere and ended in less than 2 minutes sorta reminded me of the weird marriage proposal in Angel Beats with Hinata and Yui lmao.

Will still continue to watch this to see how they wrap it all up and then wait for the Visual Novel announcement to come 4 years later.

misa best gril btw

Angel Beats would be worse with 24 episodes.
People like to believe that it would be filled with episodes like the final one but in reality it would have probably ended up with 50% of the episodes as bad as the episode with all of the Tenshi clones or the fishing one.

No, too soon to say that. It could be just a taking care of sick character to keep her relevant for when she probably gets kidnapped by scientists episode

lol shit got real in the second half of EP6.
Hopefully Ayumi is alive but then again after seeing that pool of blood in the after credit scene, I don't think there's a possibility of that happening.

it's kinda sad to think that these kind of stuff actually happens in real life due to jealousy:

I think we will have episodes in a hospital. Yuu most likely wont be dead and with all the flashbacks to Nao's brother I don't think Yuu will be facing loss in the form of Ayumi's death.

Finally something happened. It takes 5 freaking episodes, wow.

Yuu is not going to die because main character. Killing imouto is very unlikely, so Ayumi won't die as well. Everybody survived

falls from a three story high building with a bunch of debris collpasing on top of her.
If she survives, that is fucking impressive

I don't necessarily agree, the series would be more bearable though.

Ep 7.
Well I guess Ayumi really ded

I really hope time leap won't be involved because that is what everyone is expecting and it would just make the anime even more cliche.
Really looking forward to how the plot will progress from here on.

This series will probably be red for me.

Are people really expecting a time warp? I guess that could be the point of the watch in the OP and I guess they could introduce a convenient character for it.

I hope there was hate for Ayumi in Japan, so they killed her off. Rather than shoehorning her in. Remember AgK you are supposed to make us care before you kill them off

I found the 7th episode dark but oddly satisfying at the same time :D I was really surprised when he was about to snort cocaine tho :o

Best character is dead, time to drop this
Yes, I didn't enjoy the anime THAT much to have the imouto as best character.

I'm a bit interested in what's going to happen to next, but if they're going to keep being episodic then I'm just going to wait until imouto comes back to live.

I'd drop Charlotte but it's against my principles. Especially since it has a following.
