As one who has played the VN, it's not.
It's going to be pretty similar with Madoka in terms of the genre shift.

Good, that's precisely the intention from the game author and anime staff.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

GUNVARREL!!! More Gunvarrel, and more Gunvarrel. 144 episodes but didn't air last one? o_o

I like Akiho's personally ;]
Reminds me of the mad science.


That last line from Chaos;Head. ^o^/


yeah, i started laughin when i saw that line lol and i dunno, it could still be too soon to say what someone else said earlier that nothing in this episode is important, never know till the end, or atleast halfway through the series lol

Who's Eyes Are Those?

I was left in shock when I heard her say that line...It was awesome!!! I'm sure anyone who saw ChäoS;HEAd would feel the same way. For the most part the episode was pretty good but that ending made it awesome for me. Now I wanna know why the hell this girl is saying that! Is she related to someone in the ChäoS;HEAd universe?
Lets just say that Robotics;Notes just jumped into my favorite fall season anime as of the very first episode.

It was an alright first episode. I understand the pacing felt a little slow, but that's probably because they have 22 episodes to work with.

Well, for some reason I quite liked the first episode. I'm not expecting this to be a huge action packed series, but I'm expecting it to be similar to Bakuman. Inspirtational, entertaining, and an all around fun series that will probably make me want to build a giant robot...

I'm looking forward to more! When I get some free time I'm going to try and watch Chaos;Head, and Steins;Gate, to see how they all tie in together (If they do)

Anyway, bring on more!

Apart from the ''Whose eyes are those eyes?'' line from Chaos;Head, this left me completely cold. Hopefully it gets better in the coming episodes.

I have a soft spot for energetic female leads. They tend to initiate a lot of interesting events or character interactions. They may be a little naive, but they are usually fun to watch.

I have a massive dislike of apathetic male leads. We don't need anymore of them.
I know there has to be a contrast, but do all male leads have to be so bland? He's basically a foil for Ahiko.

I saw the raw few days ago, and I swear I heard "ganbare" instead of Gunvarrel. @those who played the VN: are those terms related? Simple curiosity.

You mean Gunvarrel? It's the name of the robot that they're trying to replicate.

Not really hooked on so far.
The two characters are kinda boring. Especially the protagonist - he isn't an eccentric one compared to Takumi and Okarin.
Also, no opening by Kanako Itou. Too bad, i liked her songs in all versions of C;H and S;G.

But the actual plot hasn't stared yet, so it might become much better later. I hope the story will have some darker tones, like the previous parts of this series.

By the way, was Akiho quoting Char? I think the line about acknowledging the mistakes of youth is his, but I'm not sure about the rest.

Depending on the development of the series, has great chances of Akiho get in my top 10 of characters.

There aren't many female characters who not only are quite excited, but also call the script for themselves. Moreover, she's doing the poses of the anime. I'm in love already lol

On the other hand, Kaito served as a good contrast to her animation. And for him be calm, he'll only show for what came in critical situations.

Anyway. Fantastic season. Almost all series I have watched so far had at least an excellent start.

This Anime is Great. Sets apart from the *cough* School Days, and other Ordinary Highschool Drama.

Instead of showing great amount of Fanservice, it has Costumes and A Lively Female Lead.

Cheers me Up when I saw Her in the "SKAL" Scene.

Yup, Great Anime.

Well, Sorry For that.

Er, I mean the Harem Genre in general.
And I was not saying that School Days was an Ordinary Highschool Anime.

For Ordinary Highschool Anime=A Bidge to Starry Skies

Anyway, the Robotic Notes was Great.

Looking Forward for the Next Episode.

Akiho kinda reminds me of Poplar from Working!!. The name of the place being Tanegashima doesn't really help either.

She might be suffering from a bit of chuunibyou, but I like her unwavering spirit. Definitely a genki girl, alright.

Damn, that last line... was that a reference to C;H? Not to mention that mysterious character voiced by Rie Kugimiya interests me.

Just to clear things up. Events "won't affect" this anime, it's the characters and people from the previous serious that will "affect".

I am loving that 'stupidly positive' attitude of Akiho, she's going to be a great char imo. Haha does she always carry that pair of glasses around just to pose with? And that app that Kaito uses to put outfits on others looks awesome, Akiho looked so cute with that neko maid outfit.

OP sounds awesome and I am loving Zwei's songs. And oh hell yeah I hear Kugimiya's voice at the end.

Shows definite promise. Plenty of competence to the direction, characters aren't looking too standard and could easily turn out to be interesting, and there's every reason to expect the story to go places too. Hasn't given away too much yet, I'll take that as a sign of confidence. That large flat field with the garage they have their robot in have a tremendous sense of place already. I have a good feeling about this one.

I have just recently completed C;H visual novel, great vn.
Yeah hope they don't ruined the story like Chaos;Head anime
To bad the anime cut so many awesome part, to much quality animation & rushed it like hell because of the 12 ep constraint.

I really become a fan on their semi;colon Science Adventure series after playing both Chaos;Head & Steins;Gate visual novel. Man I hope they will port R;N VN to PC after this.

So far this seem more light hearted. Yeah build some giant mecha robot.

While Yashio is some Kill-Ballad junkies, he felt really......normal compared to some delusional otaku or chunnibyou mad scientist. Seems Aki's personality really complement to Yashio so it add some chemistry to them.

Lol they always show some part of ending in the beginning of the story & Skal is the next Coca-Cola & Dr Pepper.

Happy to see the divergence meter from S;G at the start & uh oh that end quote from C;H by that mysterious girl kind of unexpected.
Hope it get better after this.

Good OP, I can totally relate it to Steins; Gate's OP for some reason. Decent ED.

The pilot episode did well in my opinion. I guess I'm gonna watch the anime, it seems to be something nice. Kaito is a cool character and Akiho kinda complements him in the club by having the the totally opposite attitude.
