| the pic of refrain kinda cool... *__* |
     |
| I admit the picture looks pretty neat. Honestly though, I'm not excited as I'd like to be. I think it'll actually end up better though because Refrain is a linear story, with only a few obvious choices. I'm still worried about the pacing though and the impact they'll do, so I'm not too excited. I really wanna play the EX perfect edition of LB! first, so I can get a taste of Saya's route and the other two. Translations when... |

If you mean the patch, I don't know since we're talking about Doki. They took so long releasing the full patch of Tomoyo After and we will only get a partial patch once it's released which the translated parts on that patch are the H-scenes, new contents of Haruka's route and Kud's route, Sasami's route and Kanata's route but not Saya's route. |

It's the name of the final route in the visual novel. It is unlocked after completing the six heroine's routes. It is the real main scenario of the entire thing. Just like After Story is to Clannad. As for why it's the name of the route, it might be best to just wait and see why. This guy pretty much nailed it spot on. Refrain can also mean, "To repeat." Wink Wink. Pretty much that. It's not 'refrain' as in 'refrain from doing something but 'refrain' as the part of a song that is repeated multiple times. |

| So basically I'm a MAL newbie but a Key Anime / VN Veteran. Anyways, Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu, minna!! I loved the first season, but had been not for the animation/pacing issues, I'd easily give it a 10/10, but due to lack of focus from J.C Staff (They had an INSANE number of anime airing at Fall 2012) , It somehow dissapointed me SLIGHTLY, but overall, a good, well-adapted effort. 8/10. Anyways, looking forward to Season 2/Refrain!! I'm hyped!  |

dizzyworld2 said: Anyway, I have a bit of a question about the Refrain pv (major Secrets of the World spoilers): |
| the pic are totally cool,not mentioning the meaning behind it. ( Noticed about the orb , thanks to khalan3) and about LB! EX, i assumed it has been fully tranlated? and for those who have played it how many new routes are they? |
| As someone who played through LB, I am excite |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| Extremely excited of what is to come. Hoping that they will do a wonderful job with it. |
dizzyworld2 said: Anyway, I have a bit of a question about the Refrain pv (major Secrets of the World spoilers): Nope. Kurugaya's. evenlaist said: and about LB! EX, i assumed it has been fully tranlated? and for those who have played it how many new routes are they? Only 3(Kanata, Sasami, Saya). Also, they plan to release only a partial patch(All the contents are translated but not Saya's route yet) first meaning we can only assume they aren't done yet. And yes, Tokido Saya is an exclusive new character and has a route. And in order to play the EX routes though the recent patch(6.0) is buggy, you should answer 'yes' when the game asked you "Do You Know The Secret Of The World?". If you answered 'no' in the first place, you won't able to play them anymore even after finishing Refrain so in order to access the EX routes, remove all of your savedata and the game will ask you again then choose 'yes'. You can now access those 3 whenever you want. But if you plan to wait for the next patch, we can only assume that they fix some bugs, you can freely play the 3 EX routes after finishing Refrain even you answered either 'yes' or 'no' when they asked you "Do You Know The Secret Of The World". |

Maybe JC Staff will pull either that or the girls except Komari went 'suddenly missing'. But still I hope the girls will be present if they're going to adapt the Loli Loli Love Love Hunters. J.C. Staff is clearly doing the 'suddenly missing' thing different from the VN. In one scene the heroines are still there, in the next they're missing. Though we have discussed possible explanations, it's still not clear how exactly J.C. will go about it. However, seeing as how they implemented those parts so far, I'd say showing Love Love hunters wouldn't pose any difficulties story-wise. |

| Hahaha! Masato-Mio was really hilarious... He was completely rejected xD |

Pandita088 said: Eh... can someone translated this? Is from the official site.  "Tomatteita Jikan ga Ugokidasu. Subete wa Soko Kara Hajimaru...." it's basically what Kyousuke said on the Refrain Trailer. "The time that has stopped has begun to move. It all begins from there...." |

>tfw Youtube can't let me have nice things  |
| I finished the VN today, and I guess it can have 22 episodes depending on the pace. We have some common route that has yet to be animated, we have Kurugaya´s route, Rin´s route and finally Refrain. There are the EX routes aswell. I think there is enough material to have at least 20 episodes. Guess we will have to wait and see. |
| About the EX routes, it's not plausible to put them in the Refrain season since Sasami's route and Kanata's route are post-Refrain and Saya's route contradicts the main story of LB. It's best to end the Refrain season by the Refrain arc and not an EX route. |
|
| I don't understand Japanese so the only thing I know about the EX routes is from what I've read on a bunch of random forums and what I could make out from when I was playing them but from what I understand about them I doubt we will get the EX routes in Refrain since they really don't have anything in common. Still it would be great if they can animate the EX routes sometime as well (especially looking forward to Saya's since if what I read about it is true then it could possibly be my favorite route in the game.) since we really don't know when the next patch will be released. Also what is the Love Love Hunters? Is it part of Kurugaya's true ending? A scene comes to mind (the one where the guy's hit on the girls to help show Riki how to confess or something... I think) but I'm not exactly sure if that's it. |

Obviously we won't get the EX routes on this season because, like I said once again, Sasami's route and Kanata's route are post-Refrain so they aren't inside the main story yet still they are involved on the main story and Saya's route contradicts the main story of LB. Plus, we already saw the trailer of Refrain season and we don't see any EX route scene so it's clear that they won't insert the EX routes on the Refrain season. LightSoul said: Still it would be great if they can animate the EX routes sometime as well (especially looking forward to Saya's since if what I read about it is true then it could possibly be my favorite route in the game.) since we really don't know when the next patch will be released. They will animate the EX routes since they promised they will animate ALL routes and that includes the EX routes. One of the proofs is(Since I've already played the EX routes) the facial expression designs of Sasami in the characters' section of LB anime website. Regarding to the next patch, as far as I concern, the next patch is still a partial patch. All are translated on the said next patch except Saya's route. |

I read a while back that the sales where less than what they hoped for and that the team working on it was discouraged. It would not make much sense for them to simply finish the project without doing Refrain but they could easily ignore EX altogether after Refrain is finished but since they did promise they will do all the routes then I'll hope it comes true. (Sorry if I'm sounding like they won't ever animate the EX portions of LB or being negative, it is not my intention and anything is possible. It's just after a huge disappointment I had with a past anime I'm a bit more wary.) That is all the information I could find on the partial patch as well. At least I have Rewrite and some other VN's I need to finish so hopefully it is enough time for the next patch release. I'm getting off topic now but is your Lucia avatar the one from Rewrite's menu screen? |

Plus it seems they're already decided to adapt those or one of the EX routes(Sasami) considering the facial expression designs of Sasami in the characters' section of LB anime website. But if they plan to cancel the adaptation of the EX routes because of the sales, I don't really mind because I don't want to see Saya's route and Sasami's route being butchered considering on what they did to the routes.

Breaking a promise that was made to the fans is never a wise thing to do since it would hurt their reputation and I agree that some of the facial images do look like some from the game (especially the one with Sasami holding a cat) so there is some proof, like you said that they might be doing something. Even though I don't want their routes to be butchered either, I'd still be happy for an anime adaption as a sort of insurance if the team that is translating the VN stops (highly unlikely since they did the whole original LB and even if they do stop for whatever reason another team can always pick it up). |

| Ahh I get it. The forest that you see in the picture is where the bus had crashed when those 2 go back to the real world. i'm mind blown. |
|
| Also, why all the female LB members(Except Rin) are mains? C'mon, they don't have actually that so much role on both Kurugaya's route and Refrain. We may consider Kurugaya(And probably Komari too) as one of the mains on this season. Anyway, it's okay now. |
