Where's my P.A.Works from the PV, eh? And not even Kyoani.

Well, Ano Natsu last season was awesome but as adaptation it seems likely they'll fuck it up.

Actually, J.C. Staff is one of my top few favourite studios (along with KyoAni, P.A. Works and SHAFT). I haven't been disappointed by any of their adaptions, to tell the truth. I understand that many are disappointed that it's not KyoAni, but I'm pretty sure J.C. Staff will do a good job. Their animation style has been one of the best I've seen. X3

My gosh, people, start giving this anime a chance. Don't say that it's bad even before it began.

Also, KyoAni's adaptions weren't 100% good either. Rather, I felt that they placed more importance in the comedy scenes than the emotional portions. But, damn, I'm irritated at all this comments about people being disappointed it's not KyoAni. I'm pretty sure that 70% of another thread already had people agreeing that it's not KyoAni. It's really too slow to be disappointed only now.

I'm really disappointed about the choice of the animation studio. I really wished it would be P.A. Works or at least A-1 Pictures. But okay, J.C. Staff you now have the chance to prove you're also able to make a good Little Busters! anime. Don't waste it.

People aren't disappointed it's not KyoAni.

They're disappointed it's JC Staff who are infamous for making terrible adaptations.

Well, truth to be told, in comparison to DEEN, I find that J.C. Staff is pretty okay. Of course, I had hopes that it would be P.A. Works or White Fox, but I don't believe that J.C. Staff has THAT bad of a reputation as of now. :X

I'm sorry but J.C.Staff is my least favourite studio.

@Earthfairys: KyoAni aren't perfect, no. But J.C.Staff are generally a pile of steaming crap.

JC staff are a joke, they have better staff and yet they put up average people for this... I am f*cking losing my brain cells at the moment, Guys if you seriously think they would actually do somewhat a good adaptation like Kyoani with clannad aand such then your wrong, dam wrong.

How can key let them handle Little Busters! out of all the dam other studios, Bloody hell I would have waited for Kyoani or even PA works or bloody even White fox..

Yes guys I have little hope at the moment, I just cant believe its JC staff with that kind of production team...

Okay, I know that the whole thread will be against me right now, because I have no real complains about J.C.Staff so far. The only adaptions from them that I see people complaining about are adaptions of light novels which, honestly, became boring for me halfway through. However, I think they do pretty well with comedy and romance to a certain degree. And I know that the staff of Key wouldn't want any of their games getting a poor adaption, so I'm sure that we have at least that much confirmation that it wouldn't be disappointing.

Actually I just got the shock of my life looking through their series. They did Honey and Clover and Nodame Cantabile. However, the staff they've got for this adaption DO seem to be the ones that have worked on mostly rubbish eg. Index. That's a real shame really.

Honestly, most people, myself included of course, are just overreacting. But with good reason. JC Staff really hasn't been doing very well with adaptations lately. They managed to turn Bakuman into a boring slide show. Shana first season was great, but then season 2 and 3 were a total mess. Hidan no Aria really isn't a bad light novel series, but the anime was literally garbage. And don't even get me started on the travesty they did to Yumekui Merry. In every case, JC Staff managed to take something good/great and turned it into something bad/mediocre.

Then the people from Key are having a midlife crisis. They seriously are taking a gamble with there decision a HUGE one.

I think many people should realize that production studio is generally responsible for animation quality only (and a show like Little Busters doesn't require any spectacular animation). Most of the creative staff working in the anime industry nowadays aren't affiliated with any particular studio, so for the story it doesn't mean anything which studio is working on the show.

The do is not the deal. J.S.Staff could make really great if they smell profit. What bothers me is director and scriptwrighter.

But probably I have to tell something to defend the studio.

Shana III wasn't a mess. And It's 90% perfect as adaptation. People saying it's a mess because of plot holes in S2(which was really the mess), which stusdio can't cover(just don't have an opportunity to add some scenes, cutted from S2 in S3).

Index is good as adaptation and has really good animation quality. A lot of people just don't like the story itself.

So if the studio would taught that LB will give them a lot of money(and it has large chhances to do so), than they'll give it all to adapt it perfectly.
