Note to self: Don't watch this I have checked out episode one from season 1 and its sort of fine but the BGM was kinda F up so I'm not sure will I watch this. Besides I didn't really played EX routes yet. |

So like, in either adaptation, be it Refrain or Ecstasy, can we receive an Easter egg? Kurugaya "true" end scene. Can just take a few minutes off an episode. |

Dammit I don't have internet in my house so I didn't see this news early. Why...? Why am I still having some high expectations from this despite on what they did to the first 4 heroine routes? Please I don't want to see Saya's route and Sasami's route getting butchered. DraconisMarch said: Please don't be ecchi. ...But it probably will be. Sorry but Sasami's and Saya's routes contain ecchi. |

The 3 EX routes have 'secret of the world' involve(Yet Kanata's route is somewhat because of 'separated timelines') sanata50lbsb said: i wonder if the EX patch will be out before this airs. It depends of when this will air. |

Okay, I knew of the existence of the game version of Little Busters EX, but for it to be adapted into an anime.... I did NOT see that coming. |

I also noticed, why there's no romance genre? Saya's route is romance-heavy which I totally doubt they will remove the romance on that route. But then again, it seems this will serve as 3rd season and not just OVAs(But then again, I guess it's too early to tell. Still, Saya's route won't fit in just 2-3 30 min. OVAs FFS) so I wonder what format will they do whether omnibus or continuous. If I'm going to consider the chronological order of EX routes(Minor spoiler): Kanata -> Sasami -> (Reset) -> Saya. I forgot to reply on this one. 45Ravager said: now I just hope that JC Staff puts in Sha la la Ectasy, and I'll be a happy man. I'm pretty sure they will insert that OST LOL at the 'onsen' scene on Saya's route. :D But then again, here's some eargasm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eulkqKO8ROM |

It's going to be the equivalent of an adaptation of the ME/PE version without the h-scenes. If they manage to show or imply h-scenes in the EX anime I would be shocked. They'd have to change up their broadcasting time and maybe even channels to compensate for that kind of change, or put it straight to OVAs as 18+. |
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. |

Just like on Saya's route PE version that there's 'implied sex scene'. Of course, they didn't show the actual sex because PE is All Ages. |

I don't mind some bit of fanservice on here and there as long as it doesn't tear down the integrity of the characters themselves. A show should not treat its characters like sacks of meat to be oggled over, to the point of becoming defining aspect of the characters moreso than the characters just being themselves. Which is my main problem with many shows featuring plenty ecchi scenes |

To those who are curious about Saya's route I uploaded a sort of MAD/AMV that shows sprites/images from her route but doesn't give too much away. There are spoilers, but they are the sort of spoilers where you need to already be familiar with it to recognize the significance. Obviously there are people who prefer going into something completely blind, but for those who want a satiate a bit of curiosity I think it gives a nice overview of Saya's arc. And it helps that the song ain't too bad either. I'll put it in a spoiler link just in case somebody didn't read this and just randomly clicks links for some reason. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8WWs6si44E |

As for a Rewrite anime... no. Every girl's route would conflict with one another because of everything that happens in them so they would have to rewrite a good half of the plot to make it work. And in my opinion the visual novel sucked (at least the final route did) so I have no interest in seeing it animated. Seriously, the ending was just terrible. |

sanata50lbsb said: please spoil for me :) Then, prepare yourself. Here we go(By the way, sorry for the late reply): * This is the beginning of Saya's route and about how Riki and Saya met. The route takes place after Riki decided to fetch his notebook for his homework and not lending Masato's notebook. As he he got his notebook and was about to leave someone(Which is Saya) suddenly strained him and pointed the gun on the back of his head(Take note that he can't see Saya's face) and asking some questions(?). After that, she let him free and Riki ran very quickly outside but as he was catching his own breath because he ran so fast just to get outside, he heard "gunshots". He decided to go back to check what's going on. As he went to the destination, he found someone's notebook(? Not sure if it's really notebook but maybe a ID card or library card) and it belongs to Tokido Saya. He decided to pick that item so he could return that item to the owner tomorrow. The next day, he searched the classroom and started looking for Saya and at last, he found her and he gave the notebook back to her. Saya got wary to Riki(?) because she may be thinking that he knows something about last night. By the way, Saya is a transfer student as far as I understand the scene. Afterwards, Riki decided to go to the rooftop and he saw Saya there. Saya started interrogating Riki then she started holding a gun and planning to shoot Riki. Riki tried to escape but he almost got fall at the rooftop and gripped at the wired-fence(? Dunno the right term for this). Saya pointed her gun to her(Check this CG so you can understand better what I'm trying to say: http://cgv.blicky.net/lbe/0334.jpg) but Riki still decided to escape by loosing intentionally his grip and fell but that's because Masato was there(And he's thinking that Riki was playing) and Masato managed to catch him. (Sorry but I forgot how Riki got teamed up with Saya after those first meeting incidents but I know the reason so let's just skipped how that happened). So yeah, the reason why Riki decided to team up with Saya is because he wants to help her to defeat the "Darkness Executives". So, Saya brought Riki in the classroom and they arranged the chairs into a pyramid-like structure because by doing that, they'll lead into a "secret dungeon" with below-floors and the said secret dungeon, there were lots of traps but they are just pranks and this secret dungeon can only occur at night and not during the day. After that, their journey begins so I'll skip those details since they're minor to the plot until they reached the B8F(Or was it B7F?)/Below 8th Floor, they found an elevator and they recognized there were so many below-floor(Dunno how many exactly but let's say over 9000). Then, a man with a mask(Which is actually Kyousuke the faget) appeared before them and Saya decided to kill him and shouted Riki to run. Riki did what she said but after running away, he decided to search Saya but he couldn't find her. Sorry but I forgot how this was ended but I believe that ended that way. * 1st "Plot" Loop(Yes, we're talking about loops and you're seeing Saya's POV instead of Riki's until the very end of this plot loop). At the beginning of this loop, Saya and Kyousuke are having a conversation and she shoot Kyousuke but I think Kyousuke managed to escape(Go back to the Riki heard gunshots and this is actually what happened). Also, by the way, every loop, Saya still remembers every single loop. There's no significant differences except during their journey, Riki's way of thinking became irrational or if I'm going to be accurate, he became so stupid and the traps became lethal because Kyousuke wanted to kill Saya. But every time Saya is getting killed, she will always go back at the beginning where she and Kyousuke are having a conversation or simple terms, loop. After reaching the B8F(Or B7F), they found the elevator once again and once again, they met Kyousuke. I believe instead Riki ran away, he observed the fight between Saya and Kyousuke. The result of the battle, Saya lost because Kyousuke easily dodged the bullets since he's using CHEAP TRICKS(Actually, the bullet his Kyousuke's face but he's unharmed because yeah, CHEAP TRICKS). Kyousuke strained Saya(See this CG: http://cgv.blicky.net/lbe/0347.jpg) and Saya started to break down for unknown reasons(Maybe because she has a wish and it must be granted but failed) and that's how it ended. * Final "Plot" Loop. At the beginning, the story revealed about Saya's past. After that, once again, the repetition of the events(Riki's POV) but only until Riki teamed up with Saya. The next day of that, Riki saw Saya outside the school and he said "he remembered everything". By the way, Riki usually calls Saya as Tokido-san and as their relationship progresses, he started to call her Saya-san. So yeah, on this time, their relationship hasn't gone further yet but since Riki remembered everything, he called her Saya-san. I forgot or I dunno if they were a couple during their journeys of the pre-1st loop and the 1st loop but this time, they're now officially a couple and started kissy-kissy and sex. Afterwards, Saya teached Riki how to use the GATLING GUN and they brought that with them in the secret dungeon. After reaching B8F and at the elevator, Riki disguised as Saya(So yeah, he crossdressed) in order to lure Kyousuke and Kyousuke got fooled because he thought it's Saya but the real Saya appeared before him. I don't what exactly happened afterwards here but I believe there were discussing about something. After the discussion, Saya and Riki decided to use the elevator in order to reach the lowest floor. As they reached the lowest floor, Saya went inside a room and locked the door then she pointed the gun to her own head and killed herself because her wish is finally granted. On the epilogue, I dunno which but it's either: Riki went to Kyousuke's room or Kyousuke went to Riki's room and they had a conversation. I dunno what are they exactly talking about but I believe that's how Saya's route ended. Sorry if there are parts that I forgot because it has been a while that I played Saya's route and I'm still eagerly waiting for the full English patch. For more info about Saya's past and the rest that I may forgot to mention, check here especially the spoiler tag there: http://myanimelist.net/character/14235/Saya_Tokido And before I forgot, during their journeys, there are tons of romance elements so the romance flows naturally. For those who played Saya's route and noticed that there are some mistakes, feel free to correct me by using this quote and insert some corrections with using bold. Thank you. :) |

I wonder how Saya's dungeon minigame will be handled. I'm mostly worried about the bad ends Saya has to go through. This is coming from someone that just ctrled through her route and read wiki spoilers (although I only know some spoilers) so does anyone think that it can be removed? |

It might turn out to be similar to Endless Eight or, to be more accurate, the Assistant arc of Jinrui Wa Suitai Shimashita. Since her route seemed it works that way(With some dialogues change when Saya died and loop and from the first plot loop). Well, they could just show only each traps. |
