No. Its season 2 only.
Meikyuu is just a single episode as prologue to Rakuen. Theres nothin' else there.

Season 3 is hopefully Magical Chiruchiru.

Nowhere I've found has said that Meikyuu is a single episode, only that episode 1 will be an hour long special. Chances are, Rakuen will end up coming out in Fall 2015.

Just look at Kajitsu adaption.

Rakuen is only two Kajitsu routes long and only one part of Meikyuu is adaptable, which fits 2 episodes = 1 hour special as introduction to Rakuen.

Oh wow, there was more! A second (and maybe 3rd?) season coming. I knew the final episode was feeling a bit weak.
BUT OMG THE SISTER IS ALIVE?! That WAS her voice in the ending, wasn't it?!
This show was kinda weird, and i didn't really understand what was going on... but it REALLY kept me hooked.
hmmmm 8/10 i guess. I just don't feel right giving it a 9. It felt much too rushed.

That was the stupidest, most overly-complicated plan I've ever seen. Why not just send in agents to apprehend him after he stopped paying attention outside. If he had just decided to shoot her right when he had her trapped or if he had literally gone to any other places to pee, that plan would have failed horribly. And a weird cliffhanger to end up a terrible episode.

It finally ends. Original episode, I didn't really like it but well they had to wrap this up somehow and both Amane's endings were kinda conclusive. Still, I would have liked watching the hunt in the forest.
Amane's route adaptation was the best imo, lot of things were left out but they did what they could in those limited 3 episodes.
6/10 for me. I really love the VN, and a huge plus for me was the fact that in the anime there were the same voice actors and the same OST. But I really hated the fact that the common route was almost non-existent and the girls' routes were butchered.

Damn, those last few minutes got me excited for the sequels. I am really looking forward to their translation. I'll certainly read them before watching the new season.

Nice, satisfying ending to the gunman situation. Using Morse to communicate to Makina to break the urinal seemed a little crazy and too convenient to be realistic, but besides that I really enjoyed this final arc as well as the other characters' stories. 8/10

Looks like it's getting sequels! Definitely looking forward to them~

Finally seen it... Welp.

I like teh episode, not as part as Kajitsu, but as a standalone. Or rather wished i would like it...

Tunafish Man reference/5
Tunafish Man reference again in teh teaser/5

Its as "so bad so good" level as Yumiko anime original episode. It involved all teh girls and fits quite good in teh Rakuen timeline. Oslo had also a good presented scene, which makes me think, that im gonna like rakuen adaption probably 10 times better than this crappy worst case Kajitsu adaption.

Teh real problem is: Srsly horny SakaSHITa and urination scenes everywhere? -5/5 Whats up with this sh1t? Its a eroge so instead of showin' h-scenes we get urination? I'm sorry 8bit, but im not into this stuff... Ya should probably think about yar target group again... I read way too many eroges and neither one involves as much peein' fetishes as this episode :(

Still kinda funny seein' SakaSHITa dyin' like peein' i guess?
Peein' fetishes/5

So i only liked episode 1,2,3 and 8.
6 and 13 were just hilarious crap, so i like them too as standalone episodes. So kinda 11/10 for them lol dear god, what have i seen with two episodes... Even Milky Holmes is moar serious.

Overall 6/10 for teh adaption. Tunafish Man reference saved teh day.

Edit: I also had teh biggest laugh in quite a time...
Yumiko's comment "im dead afterall" killed me. So dats 11/10 too :D

Its basically "How to not adapt a vn in 13 episodes" show.

Edit2: After thinkin' for a while, nope Tunafish Man reference isnt a good reason to raise teh score... Just leavin' it at 5/10. Based peein' fetishes.

^ Lol you are right 8bit has definitely messed up many things. Horny Sakashita and urination, panty shots everywhere (even Yumiko and Kazuki) and let's not start about Sachi's route..

I haven't read the sequel yet but I think you shouldn't get your hopes up, bear in mind that even Kajitsu's anime started off very promising and exciting.

Even 8bit cant f*ck it up. Srsly even teh worst case scenario i posted in another thread is 3 times better than this crappy adaption^^ But yeah 8bit can still find a way^^ I just hope it wont involve urination and moar anime original stupid crap anymoar.

Rakuen is two routes long btw. ;)

Edit: And yeah, Sachi is teh biggest sacrifice. Stay steady girl, ya get yar screentime in Rakuen, even though nobody will ever know yar true back story. :)

Well they are likely to put some weird crap again, but I guess that if you say so it will be definitely better. I am honestly looking forward to reading these, I hope the translation won't take too long.

Yeah, but Rakuen isnt serious stuff like Kajitsu, so it wont hurt as much^^ My hopes are still low though, i just want to forget teh Kajitsu adaption asap with them <3
So or so it cant get worse :D

And yeah, i adapted all Grisaia games + teh anime with it... :D I had more fun doin' dat than watchin' this rushed mess^^

We are probably seein' a peein' fetish vn adaption soon and they wanted to use Grisaia as trainin' playground for it? Its teh only explanation i could think of...

ohh it was the father of that bitch. And Kazumi survived as expected.

Overall really enjoyed this anime(yeah I didn't play the VN). Could have lived without that end though. Even though more seasons are confirmed I really don't like stuff like that. Just end it at a good point and start from the beginning with the next whatever it is.

Eh it is an okay series, but cramming in everything from a VN to a 13 episode series, I knew they are going to rush everything in here and hard for me to understand the story.

Well it is enjoyable, I like how the story is really dark and sometimes explicit during the last couple of episodes. Yuji and Kazuki, are the only ones I see are pretty badass, even though Kazuki is not here in the entire series. Though I wish VN's nowadays needs to make more episodes instead of 12 or 13.

6.5/10, now another sequel coming up for March, can't wait to see what they look like.

An ending that followed the anime parameters, a little action, drama and comedy, but nothing fancy, which I think was due to lack of time, really wanted to see this adaptation with over twenty episodes

Quite liked the anime, the plot is great, as well as the characters, the development was only a little to be desired, but still is a good work, I liked that no route had a sad ending

Well, these final scenes, they were really breathtaking, I'm look forward to seeing the continuation of this story ..

It was alright. We still know nothing about Kazuki, she might be alive? That gunman drama sure wasn't realisitic. Amane should have given him water that puts him to sleep or something.. The ending is a bit confusing to me as a Non-LN reader, more seasons coming perhaps?

7/10.

Well at least the Amane arc got a solid treatment (albeit with an anime original ending) with fairly good pacing throughout aka focusing on Kazuki. The previous Amane episodes were better but this was alright. I enjoyed Makina's arc as well mostly because of her bitch of a mother getting owned by Yuuji in the end.

I've never played the VN so my expectations for Grisaia were never that high in the first place unlike some others'. Thus, I never felt egregiously disappointed or butthurt at any point during this season. I'll take it for what it is: an average ecchi harem with a more "psychological" and "darker" setting (whatever the hell that means). I'll probably watch the sequels as well because at this point, I've come too far so YOLO.

And I'm already starting to bust out the preemptive "popcorn" for the shitfest that is going to ensue on MAL for the two sequels.

Huh, pretty shitty episode, if you asked me. The Sakashita guy is one of the worst thought out characters I've ever seen (and dumb as rock as well). Overall, did not really enjoy this series, although it had its moments. 5/10

Btw, at the end... when they showed the encounter at Yonaguni Island, am I the only one who at first thought it was a confrontational scene between China and Japan?

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Amane got the better ending but it's still not enough to redeem this trainwreck. Compressing 30-50 hours of material in 13 episodes is impossible.

And... Oslo!!! <3 Who the heck can hate this lolicon villain? :P
I hope and believe they won't butcher Meikyuu. It's so linear and masterfully written so they shouldn't have any problems with the storyboard... unless they cram it in 3-5 episodes.

They could hardly put something into the water, like sleeping drugs. They would have to open the bottle, which might make Sakashita suspicious. And if the girls drank from the bottle, they would get sleepy, too, which certainly would make him suspicious. I mean, if all five suddenly fall asleep within a few minutes? Better hope he already drank, too.

No way to ensure a good outcome there, especially given that they can't know if he drank from it and is sleeping, unless one of the girls told them.

There were still a lot of holes in that plan though. They could have sniped him from the ground. Well, 20 meters or so wouldn't exactly be sniped i guess, but still, if he can shoot down, they can shoot up.

They could also infiltrate the school from another side and get teams in position for a assault. Enter through door and window at the same time.

Or vent sleeping gas. Or let it seep through the gap in the door and the floor.

Still to risky (though i think less risky than the plan they used..)? Lure him out via the water trick, but have a team ready to intercept him. There are tons of rooms including the stalls where they can hide.

Even if they still go for the sniping as there is no way he can do anything before the bullet hit, they'd have team in place to react immediately, instead of potentially letting him regain control.

Overall, i can see that they cut quite a bit even without having played it, but if you don't know whats missing you don't think "this and that is wrong", either, so the anime works. Took me a while to get that they basically reset the story with each girl, maybe because they are all so crazy that i wasn't surprised at how many crazy shit happend after another..

So yeah, maybe more time for each route or simply do only one route per season or whatever would have been better, but it wasn't that bad.

Yar talkin' about 8bit. Meikyuu grand route is shorter than Chiruchiru route, and still contains a few H-scenes, while Rakuen is over twice as long and has no H-scenes(not countin' that one short 18+ scene, which is predestinated to get a peein' fetish by 8bit) in teh main story. I also dont see them explainin' Yuuji's back story vn-like. They skipped teh flashbacks in Kajitsu as much as possible, y should they invest time with Yuuji's now?

And we got an announcement for 1 hour special start episode, it could be very well used to adapt everythin' out of Meikyuu. Leavin' whole 11-12(?) episodes for Rakuen, which is quite a good pacin'.
My initital expectation were 3 episodes, but teh 1 hour special is obviously Meikyuu, and it feels right to end a prologue with a special. Its not teh first time and probably not teh last time that 8bit destroys teh material.

Not sayin' i prefer that solution, but it seems logical to lower teh expectations to this level and it would at least provide a good pacin' for Rakuen. I'm also expectin' one peein' fetish scene in Meikyuu, so look forward to that <3

I guess it wasn't as good as the VN. A very long VN put into 13 episodes isn't going to make people happy. Go figure.

Without reading the original work I have the anime only perspective. It was alright. Angelic Howel and Makina's route were the best of this bunch. The one episode arcs even I felt were extremely condensed which detracted from their probable impact.

6/10 on the whole. I'll be watching the sequels. Hopefully I can go through the VNs before that.

@sanlei can you stop with the teh and the 'yer or 'yar or (blank)in' and all the other bullshit way of type-speaking. It comes off as incredibly ignorant.

I knew it, that guy was too suspicious, amd why else would they introduce someone like that just before the final episode? Episode was good i guess, 4/5 for the finale.

Overall, 7.6/10, interesting, some good ideas affected by the rushing, different from the usual school setting ecchi, some dark elements, i liked it, the girls were beautiful and some of them interesting, at first i was in love with Michiru but i reached the conclusion that Sachi is best girl.

Even though i'm interested on them, i doubt i'll touch the VNs.

Score may rise or drop upon further reflection.
