| Expectations have been lowered right close to the bottom of the barrel for this adaptation now, which is a shame since I like the manga. Shaft was the last studio I was expecting to do a slice of life/drama/game series like this in all honestly. I was at least hoping for Tatsuyuki Nagai as director (but since it is Shaft, well, that is out of the window…. and here comes Akiyuki Shinobu for my disappointment). Now the only thing left is to know whom the series composition and scriptwriter for this will be. Please let it be someone with a previous and successful experience with the genre. Also, it’d be great if (just for this one) Shaft would refrain from using their so-called signature visual style.... why? Because this series doesn’t need any of that, and if you think it will make it better, then you clearly have not read or know anything about the source material at all. I expect this to air in Summer as well.... Again, I’m not eager for this anymore as I used several months ago. |

"Hi!" |
| Shaft's fine for this, they didn't mess up Koufuku Graffiti. |

| Shaft can do not abstract shit when they need to. They will probably add a bit of flare to things but i doubt its gonna go full monogatari like people are thinking it will. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| 1001 jumpcuts ehhhhh Not sure about this |
IZUMI64 said: Biasa said: so you not understand the animation direction and because of that is shit? epic if SHAFT really using their 'usual' art for this series. yeah... Madoka, Monogatari Series, SZS and Koufuku Graffiti have different styles of animation but as they have some similar things, is easier say they are all the same that see the difference |

While I do agree about ZNT, it is really because MAPPA is the essence of what made Madhouse good in the first place, but it still was far more approachable and standard work what SHAFT does Kyoani is as far away from quality or "unique" as it can be. There's no studio more mainstream or homogenized than that. Hell, do you even know what kind of absolute trash they are doing this very season? If anything, they are complete opposite of shaft - only playing it safe, only catering to otaku crowd, copypasting same show again and again. KyoAni and Key products are half the reason the industry is infested with low quality sol "feel shows". Hibike showed some promise but it quickly revealed itself as just another Kyoani show complete with "moe girls doing moe things" cliches and the absolutely gross queer-baiting elements. I am happy its not Kyoani, because that would have genuinely made me skip this. |

Fai said: Okay, it's not a great show but directing/cinematography was A++++> Perfect Snoozesider. |
| Shaft + Akiyuki Shinobu = Godly |
| Oh well, all we can do is hope that it's good. Maybe this'll be their first great non-Monotagari show since...god knows what. |
| >Shaft Oh, what the hell. There goes my Asaka Morio dream... Well, at least it can't get any worse than that. I mean, they had stuff like Ef, right? I'm sure they can pull this off somehow. >Akiyuki Shinbo Yeah, fuck that. This series is done for. (Oddly enough, this reminds me of the time Heath Ledger was cast as The Joker) Fai said: >If anything, they are complete opposite of shaft - only playing it safe, only catering to otaku crowd, copypasting same show again and again. KyoAni and Key products are half the reason the industry is infested with low quality sol "feel shows". And Shaft is "oh so amazing" that they put out unique, uncatering and completely original content because Nisekoi, Koufuku Graffiti and Monogatari are OH SO UNIQUE, UNREPETITIVE AND ORIGINAL. (PS If you really think this way, please go see a doctor) Akiyuki Shinbo is a one trick pony. He works once and never again. His "substance over style" formula has been re-used over and over and over again that it's become way too cancerous and normie to be even called unique. And at least KyoAni LOOKS good. I'd rather have them than still frames, tilted heads, flat backgrounds and CGI classrooms. |

You talk about direction & cinematography and then diss kyoAni for moe designs? Because SHAFT totally doesnt add fanservice, right? And kyoAni's directors are far better in direction & cinematography, just look at hibike, tamako love story, etc >gross queer baiting elements if you defend shaft with a phrase like that then the joke's on you. They've been otaku centric & otaku centric for a decade since shinbo joined shaft. |

Because this series doesn’t need any of that, and if you think it will make it better, then you clearly have not read or know anything about the source material at all.. You're probably going to get more than a few "anime is a visual medium" counterarguments for that one. Again though when the only people leaping out of their skin at this news in a positive way are people loaded up with Monogatari and Fate avatars (I just associate both franchises hardcore fans with manic shitposting and trolling at this point anyway though) and who are well known professed Shaft fanboys who have absolutely nothing to say about the manga and are strictly interested for the potential of more Shaft gimmicks that really says it all about the divide. There really seem to be two camps in anime nowadays, those concerned with seeing the work they enjoy translated to another format in the best and most accurately fitting way possible so as to make the most out of the transition and format changes (this group seems to be dwindling, being marginalized and increasingly drowned out by the year as a result of some recent trends in how animation production is being approached) and those strictly concerned with their favorite peoples styles and quirks being attached to a work regardless of what it is. No studio better exemplifies this clean divide than Shaft, none. Anyway I'm no fan of Kyoani or their style (what they have to do with this other than a name drop and the BS rivalry thing fans made up for them with Shaft years and years ago I don't know) and think they have a tendency to run things through their own sort of filter badly as well, but I can definitely tell they give way more of a shit about what they are doing on average than Shaft ever will. The very idea that somebody might suggest otherwise is ludicrous to me, but then you have to consider the sources on these quotes here. |

| I'm sure they'll adapt it just fine. I was interested in the show anyway. |
| Shaft and Shinbou = Must. |

JizzyHitler said: cough cough "nisekoi" cough cough.Shaft can do not abstract shit when they need to. They will probably add a bit of flare to things but i doubt its gonna go full monogatari like people are thinking it will. i like cola and i like mentos. doesn't mean i would swallow them together. that's how i feel about this anouncement. |
"If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| I don't know man, the style Shaft uses is fine in Monogatari or Nisekoi, but i don't want this series to look sparkly and colorful. |
| Let's put it this way then: it better have a tooth brushing scene. |
 |
| I like a lot of SHAFT anime. I've watched their shows all the way back to Tsukuyomi:Moon Phase where you can find the original head tilt. I ADORE Hidamari Sketch and enjoy the various Monogatari. Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei was awesome huomur and Ef was great melodrama and of course there was Madoka. BUT I still think that SHAFT and Shinbou is absolutely the worst studio to adapt "3-gatsu no Lion". It's a very gentle understated manga with subtle drama and character development. SHAFT don't do subtle. They do LOUD and funny and melodrama. |

| Damnit, why shaft. |

Paulo27 said: Let's put it this way then: it better have a tooth brushing scene. hahahaha that's the most awkward anime scene that i ever seen in my life. Is a really surprising news, but i'm quite happy and excited, i've been waiting for shaft to do something new since way long, so this is a great opportunity. Like some of you has said, this manga is not shaft style at all, and i thought that it was taken for A-1 or something alike, but i'm expecting a really good job for part of the studio anyways because they usually put an interesting point of view in their animes, although i know is not a sure thing... So i hope they do a really good effort in this one, please shaft don't disappoint me |
| Tried reading the source material, couldn't really get into it. I will give this an episode or two though to see if anything changes. |
