Well shit. -_-

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.

Yes but did you look at the Staff that Jc staff put in charge? Below average. compared the series you mentioned.

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.

Oh God, you're right. FUCK EVERYTHING

This news just made my day XDDD
ok maybe not the news but comments that are sure to come...

but I'm one of few people, it seems, that actually like J.C. Staff and some of their current works (Milky Holmes is briliant, AnoNatsu is great)

so I dunno much about JC Staff, plus I liked Shugo Chara and I've never heard of Little Busters before so I'm watching it anyway.

sigh.

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.

Shugo Chara...

Shugo Chara and Little Busters... What the f*ck is this!!??

Same here. Neither of them have any significant popular work. x__x

"Director - Yamakawa Yoshiki
(Azumanga Daioh, Di Gi Charat, Kill Me Baby!, etc)"

I died a little inside when I read this.


Haha, if only. It may actually turn out well, we'll see how it goes.

so true....

ooking at the overall picture Its going to be tough for the staff that was enlisted by Jc staff to make it a "good" adaptation, LB! is such a difficult concept that sometimes I myself think maybe its better than its not animated.

Unless the staff KNOWS LB! and played the game, read the novel and all and understand the whole concept of LB! then it might be okay..

Im just scared that they will f*ck up the image of Little Busters! so with Key just for the sake of having Little Busters animated.

Not sure what the problem everyone is having is honestly. Now I may not be completely familiar with all the original works their anime have been for, but many have been good regardless. Like Hayate, Nodame, Honey and Clover, and Utena. Although, they were involved in, whats my opinion of, the worst adaptation ever, Tsukihime. But really they have a long history that's not soley bad so there's no saying it's doomed already.

And too be honest I was hoping it wouldn't be Kyoani after the stunt they pulled at the end of Clannad After Story.

You gotta be kidding me...

Ugh, great. Knowing JC Staff they'll probably take the opportunity to ecchi it up, too. And I was really looking forward to this :c I only like their earlier works.

Who are these people?

Aha...aha...AHAHAHAHA!

Oh man this was golden...

Now I'm looking forward to it even more, just how much can they mess this up?
