Beast666 said: AOTY incoming. Oh yesh. Yet another I plan on reading.. Heard good things about this LN. Definitely watching this when it airs. |

LastChapter said: Beast666 said: AOTY incoming. Couldn't say it better myself. I wanted a movie series, but a TV anime is still great. Hyped to the max for the anime adaption. Seeing Fremy animated.... *tears up* Well seeing Adlet's kicking ass will be glorious to see as well. But yeah i think a movie will suit better for Rokka. BeatzMe said: Beast666 said: AOTY incoming. You were lurking for this news to pop up, weren't you? lol It's a mere coincidence, i swear :p |
|
| I wonder if i should read the manga |
| ( ˘ ³˘) ♥ (0‿0✿) |
| I'll probably give the LN a try since I heard some good things about it. Hope this gets a good studio to adapt the first few volumes. |
 |
Goatkiv said: I wonder if i should read the manga I don't think the manga is translated, and even if it is, i really suggest you to read the LN instead because the manga version is terrible (Or so i heard). |

LastChapter said: BeatzMe said: You were lurking for this news to pop up, weren't you? lol We were all waiting for the news to pop up. I was lurking too lol, after seeing it on ANN. How many episodes would be suitable for this? |

|
| Just a matter of time. Did they change Adlet name for some reason? |
| " ... suspicion and paranoia spread among the chosen" sounds promising! Better be good. |
LastChapter said: I can imagine it already, the episode discussion forums debating and arguing who is the seventh, then some troll is going to ruin it for everyone. Lol |
|
| Interesting, I'm always up for a good action fantasy anime with some mystery. Also this looks like it could perhaps have some nice visuals and intense action sequences. |
| Not set in high school is a plus. |
 |
| This is fate. I looked up this novel a few days ago on MAL and I was like, "Looks really cool, wish it would get an anime..." And then I saw this. Wow. |
 |
| so as I read the word 'light novel' a few questions come to mind: are most the heroes actually girls in skimpy clothing? is there one male hero that makes all the cicks fall for him? Will we get ridiculously stupid keyboard smash names? LastChapter said: Eerie atmosphere when Tgurneu speaks, the anime better give me shivers during those scenes. TGURNEU. SMASH. CONFIRMED. Alright, looked up some more names. My vote goes to "Hans Humpty" for best name 2014. I bet he's going to shout attack names in broken german~ |

| Can't wait. |
| This sounds interesting. |
 |
| No harem tag? I am suprised. Oh well, I heard this LN is actually a bit better than the other ones. Then again, people said the same about Mahouka. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Meh, I'll check it out. :P |
| Looks cool. |
| Sounds like my sort of anime, looking forward to it. |
 |
| THAT is ONE heck of an interesting cover image. Then I clicked on the Alternative version and saw taped tits with an unexpectedly way more banal-looking face. ......but THEN, I read "Majin" (which happens to be the same description in the LN, which I disregarded because of the beautiful image), and thought of Disgaea. Then I saw "calls himself the strongest man in the world" and I imagined Zeta, and now, I suddenly want this shit right now. |
| What would happen if DEEN animated it. Discuss. |
| >Not Harem >There are 6 Main Protagonist Sure i`ll watch it, i should lower my expectation. |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| I heard some positive feed backs from a reliable source. This should be good. |
| magic LN without harem and ecchi ??! is this real life... |
 |
| Pretty excited for this. |
 |
| Ah, I can't get anything from those ambiguous descriptions on MAL! But so many people say it's going to be good... |
| Will looking forward to it |
 |
| The studio who adapt this chose wisely, while not anything different, they've at least chose something decent for once and not the typical bottom of the barrel LN. |
 |
| Looks awesome, will check it out when it airs. |
| Wonderful news. I will read a few pages of novel then. |

The original light novel series is written by Kei Toru that made its debut in summer of 2011. Author is Yamagata Ishio, not Kei Toru. Kei Toru is the manga adaptation author. Now, I don't know if I should rejoice or not. This is a complicate dfeeling... I'd like to jump around and rejoice but at the same time I can't believe that it's going to go well. There are high chance that the anime will follow the manga because the LN has chara designs and so on which don't look manga-ish at all. All in all, the manga version looks far more like something that would get an anime adaptation (not only in the designs, but in the changes in the story as well) than the LN. And I mean that in a bad way ;x. Well, the manga isn't far away so they'll have to use the LN afterward, but if they take the manga route right from the start some stuff aren't going to be the same at all afterward either :x. And yeah, if they actually follow the LN properly and take the time to make a faithfull adaptation, then the news is great. If they adapt the manga instead, then I could care less and they can go to hell with their adaptation of that thing. BTW, the animation will probably adapt either 3 or 5 volumes imo. Finishing where the 4th volume ends would be a bit.. Cruel, I'd say. LastChapter said: I can imagine it already, the episode discussion forums debating and arguing who is the seventh, then some troll is going to ruin it for everyone. You can be sure that it's going to happen, alas. so as I read the word 'light novel' a few questions come to mind: are most the heroes actually girls in skimpy clothing? is there one male hero that makes all the cicks fall for him? One of the girl has a bit of a skimpy clothing, others are either in armor or priest garments. No harem, there's only a little bit of romance in there. main characters are 5 women/girls and 3 men. One of the woman is married and have a child. TGURNEU. SMASH. CONFIRMED. Alright, looked up some more names. My vote goes to "Hans Humpty" for best name 2014. I bet he's going to shout attack names in broken german~ Tgurneu isn't a human. As for Hans, it's a mix of Touhokuben and cat-speech patterns. Last time I went in Germany, they weren't talking like that at all. Hmmmm, that pose on the cover isn't the most inviting. You probably saw the manga covers rather than the LN though~ If that was the third volume cover in the pic showing the anime confirmation, that character is so far away from the original design that I almost didn't recognize her... Here is the original design : http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/214749.jpg I really fear that they're going to make heavy changes, hugh...>_< |

| A good friend of mine recommended me the LN a while ago. Looks like it's time to go read it finally. Looking forward to the adaptation, though it'll probably get poor treatment like most LNs out there. |
 |
| First Koe no Katachi and now Rokka no Yuusha? this is a really damn good week.2015 looking better and better - just please let some good studio to do both or I'm going to rage. |

| Didn't see this coming. I'm happy though. One thing that bothers me is the manga design, looks kinda moe-ish I guess.The LN design looks more serious. Hopefully they go by the LN. |
| .. |
| Lol, I knew this coming. Cant wait <3 |
