Exact opposite sentiment here. But then, Hanagai was just awful, so I'm probably holding that against the character designs as well.


The anime was awful, apparently one of the reasons why it didn't sell was because the designs didn't follow Buriki's levell(who I am in love with)

the original novel was MUCH better in design and humor, it focused on too much fanservice

Eh, not too sure what to think of it. Buriki's art is decent; but I'm sure P.A. Works will find a way to make it look gorgeous. Guess we'll just have to wait for more info on this.

Buriki + SHAFT : great
Buriki + AIC : meh... they reworked it in S2 tough.
Buriki + PA Works : ???

TL;DR

ugh.. Okada Mari's writing is like forced drama shoved right into my face with no substance to back it up. Makes me not care about her characters' problems when there is no/little explanation. Black Rock Shooter(TV series), AnoHana was a little bit better.

I love P.A. Works but I really hope this isn't another anime about cute girls doing cute things. HanaIro wasn't bad and I enjoyed it a lot but at other times it was unbearable to watch. Especially that forced drama in the end between Ohana and Minko.

Interested.Though i don't have any complaints about Okada Mari,The P.A Works definitively interests me .I seem to have a good impression on buruki too.I don't know since i've been watching P.A Works for a while and things seem to be similiar with series they produce,so i hope for a different concept but still similiar since it the same company XD.
Doesn't P.A Work seem to make more and more Original Animes?
I'm just an ordinary Anime loving Cheese Goo.So feel free to ask any question about cheese XD.Or if you want i could give you a little scoop of my cheesy body ,just PM me LOL,I'll really give you cheese.REALLY

I assume this is a joke. She's one of the best out there. (Toradora, True Tears, AnoHana, Hourou Musuko, Hanasaku Iroha, need i say more .. ) and is certainly running hot at the moment.

After all .. if she can take the premise that was AKB0048 and turn it into something watchable then she sure has talent.


Only Toradora and AnoHana were good, the rest decent but True tears was medicore, but that's just my opnion.

In my humble opinion Ano Hana was awful and even Toradora, one of the JC Staff anime people don't cite as a "soiled LN adaptation" left much to be desired as an adaptation.

Tastes do differ, but to me Toradora was pretty cringe worthy for the first half due to KugRie Tsundere business, though it did get better in the second half. Pretty good for a romcom, though not the best - See Nodame Cantabile for that.

AnoHana also started off well pretty well, but it got way too melodramatic in its 2nd half. It was as if it was trying to beat Key at its own game (i.e. melodrama), and I don't like Key.

True Tears to me is one of the best romance/drama TV series of the late 2000s era, up there alongside ef tale of memories and Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora. To me TT was unfairly hated because of Noe Shippers.

Anohaha wasn't bad to me. but Toradora had an awful ending... I really wish there were more Ami but eh. Now we knock down those the writer isn't all that good!

Buriki = Awesome char designs
P.A. Works = Awesome visuals

Those reasons are enough for watching this. Thou sometimes P.A. Works' plot isn't that special, but their visual never fails to make me eyegasm, so why not watch this? :D

Buriki - Fuck yeah!

PA Works - Fuck yeah!

Buriki + PA works = fuck no!

Burikis character designs don't belong to PA works... they give everything is weird gradient.

Best looking Buriki is still denpa onna and that was made by shaft (akiyuki shinbo). I doubt PA does a good job here with these character designs.
Their backgrounds always look amazing but character designs are kinda too slick and glossy

A lot of people already commented about the staffs, I do agree with most. I look forward to this series. Though, if I'm bothered with something it'll have to be the "characters".

Besides the 2 main: Mukaido Manaka and Sakishima Hikari

The other six listed are characters from the light novel "Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei" and those VAs are the ones who voiced them on the LN's drama CD. I'm confused... @.@

Nagi no Asakura is now confirmed to air from this October (i.e. 2013 Fall Season).
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.

Wow, I hope this is as good as Tari Tari or HanaIro. The "image" song by Ray is so good though here. HanaKana being one of the main seiyuu also helps, lol.

I sincerely hope it's not going to be another cheesy, over the top melodrama like the ones in AnoHana.

BTW, is Buriki really the one handling the character designs? They don't look like his style at all

Many people seem to love the over the top melodrama in AnoHana though. Anyway, even other works from PA Works like Iroha and Tari Tari have some melodrama - I just think it goes with their original works...

Amiluhur said:

Buriki is not really the person who handles the character design position. Character design is by Ishii Yurko. Buriko is credited with Original Character Concept, which is more like he made a number of basic sketches and then some other people develop on it so the end results could vary from the original design, particularly since it is an original work, unlike Haganai where Buriki's illustrations form a clear reference and viewers can compare and see the difference.

There are NINE volumes for the BD/DVD. It seems that the series is a 2-cour series.
