Aku no Hana, Genres: Romance, School, Shounen,
Psychological

School Days, Genres: Drama, Romance, Harem, Seinen

Yes they aren't the same.

@ My opinion. I rate (as best I can) in terms of primary and secondary genres. (Sometimes third)

School Days: Drama+Harem+(Seinen)

More stupidity lulz, only this time in anime form? Sure thing! Hopefully the US manga releases will have caught-up by the time the anime starts. That way, I'll be pumped for more trolling sociopath girl love triangle daftness.

Oh this. I read the first few chapters and dropped it. I might consider watching the anime adaption though.

And AIYA! School days was...scarring.

I am also very confused about why people are drawing parallels to school days? Or maybe it's just that one review and the poster on this thread read it and assumed that it was a meaningful comparison and now I've heard it from several (two-three) sources so it just feels like "everyone thinks it compares well to school days". I agree with you, it is nothing like school days.

Well anyways. I'm usually happy when I hear that a manga I like is going to get an anime adaptation, but this is an exception. I like the manga but I find it hard to imagine how an anime adaptation could become anything more than annoying. If they stay true to the manga I think it'd be hard for the director and the actors to execute it well, however they do have the mushishi guy/girl on the team so there's always hoping. :)

when is the anime coming out? Never thought something this fucked would get an anime. I seriously they keep all the dark shit and weird stuff that happens in the manga as opposed to lightening it like they tend to do with some mangas.

but if Buck-Tick gets the OP, I'll give it a shot.

The sinopsis of the manga sounds like Onani Master Kurosawa. I wish they would animate that manga too !

Don't talk to me about character development if Kaizuka Inaho or Slaine Troyard are in your favorites.

This is not on the level of Onani Master; Onani Master was a masterpiece about emotional anguish, changing yourself for the better, and atoning for your sins. This is about going crazy and doing whatever the hell you want because fuck the police. Its a 'Corruption of a pure romance novel' indeed.

While a this approach towards developing the plot and its characters is plausible, its not my cup of tea. To each their own i guess. I'll admit, though; it DID keep me interested to see how things would end. I probably wouldn't have continued the second arc if people didn't return to being rational human beings.


LayedBack:
Its nice to know that one cannot express their own opinion without someone telling them to shut up and get the fuck out. His dislike for this series is the same as your dislike for fluffykisshoujo: It turns him off; If you're going to refute the reasons why you believe this genre is better than any other type, at least give some legitimate reasoning for it. Otherwise, you just come off as an ignorant kid that can't handle a little difference in opinion.

I was merely expressing an observation I made, calm down. If anyone in here is acting like an ignorant kid right now, it would be you. I say this because you assumed three different things that are completely false and and then went on to put words in mouth in an attempt to target me. That's a rather annoying habit that quite frankly no one likes. You should really work on that. Now here is specifically what I'm referring to -

1. I never told him to shut the fuck up and get out. I was basically saying that I thought it was cute that he so matter of fact-ly stated that this anime sounds pretty awful whilst every other person in this thread at the time had a different opinion. If you interpreted my post as a belittlement of another persons' opinion then that would be your own damn problem because it's not what truly went down. To me all I see in my post is an observation coupled with an innocent joke.

2. I don't dislike 'fluffykisshoujo'. That's just another thing you assumed about me. But thank you again for making it so easy for me to point out the flaws in your post. I really hope you're listening and taking notes for your own good, kid.

3. I don't believe the genres associated with Aku no Hana are inherently better than other genres. Therefor I needn't explain why I believe that to be the case, because I don't even fuckin' think that to begin with. I'm starting to wonder if you might be projecting your own beliefs on to me for some sad reason.

Perhaps you should stop trying to read too much in to subtext before you attempt to slander someone. Because uh, ya know what they say don't you? ASS-U-ME, Megablasta.

Check....

Found profile : http://sunaoka.com/actor/ueda/

Seems to be very new in seiyuu job, and not yet 20 years old.
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.

that's not why I thought it sounded awful. I thought it sounded awful because it sounded like it'd be a stupid ecchi type thing. . . .but after so many people telling me how messed up it is, I've been reading the manga, and totally dig it.

So, yes, I shall be watching.

Be careful what you wish for is all I can say... I'll take moe over that any day and in fact, as I'm not loving the Majestic Prince designs either I may perhaps have been fully converted over to moe... what has the world come to, eh?

Precisely the kind of people I had in mind when I wrote my earlier post. Somehow these people claim they love anime but are against the anime art style, and some even go as far as saying character design counts little for them - which makes me wonder why they watch anime in the first place.

I have no problem with realistic character designs; i actually would prefer it over seeing what are supposed to be japanese students with the oh so common green/pink/whatever hair and blue eyes. But this had no business being rotoscoped; it's an awful, tedious relic of a technique that doesn't belong in 2013 anime and since this wasn't an original avant garde anime and based off another's work who trusted the team for this the designs should have been faithful to the manga for both the fans and the mangaka. It was completely needless.

For a brief example by the way, Satoshi Kon's works have realistic looking japanese people in them without the animation being a steaming pile of failure.
