Visual novels with a lot of arcs tend to become very hard to successfully adapt, unless they have like a main heroine (like in clannad)
Im a trance artist, check out my music video on Youtube:

What makes an anime good is based on how many strings in my heart it can touch and emotions deploy.

True but hopefully they'll pull it off.

I'm actually somewhat looking forward to this.

I was curious on this VN(Well, it got a nice rating at VNDB which is 8.39) at first which I might try to play it someday but I didn't expect that this will get an anime adaptation.

Will looking forward to this! :D

>People still believe it's going to be shit

Going to be the next Steins;Gate. If they work on it since 2010 with no real info and all shrouded in mystery, you expect Japan doesn't know what its doing?

Rushing a VN adaptation is what Japan does all the time, but this time it will be different. It already is.


Mark my words of wisdom.

lol what are they going to animated anyway?
the grisai kaijitsu is nothing more than just a prologue to it's sequel. i bet the anime will be like the 'all-route' version where Yuuji grasped each of the heroine's problem albeit not to end up with any of the heroine.
without the sequel, the kaijitsu just like fa*ping withouth climaxing

by the time the anime finished airing, i'll check this post again and say " look!, my past prediction was right" XD

talking about koichoco, since they only do the chisato route, they stuff some other heroine's background on the movie and make the chisato route become shorter. either way just the same though, i only have interest on satsuki

Omnibus format in VNs to anime adaptation are "still" very uncommon.

Unless the story itself is meant to be omnibus format. But if it isn't, then I don't see why they will take that and I can agree on what leonnes said(Except the part where the MC possibly didn't end up with no one).

It definitely won't be an omnibus, there's too much story to do that so I'm guessing they'll mix the routes into one.

No need to do an omnibus, I think there won't be too many problems adapting the story tbh. Not sure how many episodes it'll have though, but fact of the matter is the VN was long as hell.

No need to be so sour, Kuu Kuu. 2 cour would work as there was a handful of days in the common route that could be easily trimmed out.

Really Enjoying the VN so far. Although I still haven't had enough time to complete it yet.

I have been checking for news on this regularly for a few weeks now. Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer for some actual information.

All the talk about unified vs omnibus format in this thread is pretty interesting. To be honest i want to see this show being animated in unified format (instead of omnibus one). I'm not all that knowledgeable in Visual Novels, so I can't say how well omnibus format works, but from watching Amigami SS and YnS, I can say that while it's an interesting approach to things, I would hate to see it become the way of the future.

Now don't get me wrong, I can see how it could be utilized in a number of good ways (playing with different settings and tropes with each situation, having different character interpretations and presentations etc.) however the way it's been used thus far in romance based anime can be described as ''official'' fanfics that simply cater to each fandom and doesn't offer any suspense due to how formulaic it becomes. While i wouldn't mind if it becomes more common place, but I would hate to see it become the staple.

IMO, the omnibus format can present stories as good and wonderful as the unified one, and also show sub par or underwhelming ones, it's simply another story telling technique. It really depends on what suites which best (for example, something like Kimikiss might be more suited in the omnibus format (thought I personally loved that anime overall) but I think having Toradora! or Clannad do something like it would produce something inferior).

The most obvious advantage that the unified approach has is that the anime doesn't have to be economical in telling it's stories and there is more room for things to be told more completely.

One big reason why omnibus format is now popular with some VN adaptation is because the structure of those VNs like Amagami and YnS, where the MC got hooked up with one girl in one arc while others faded into the background (e.g. never actually see the MC as love interest), is considered to be best adapted in omnibus format. You mentioned KimiKiss as something more suited. And this is PRECISELY the bombing and huge amount of negative feedbacks from fans of the original VN and anime watchers because of how it forcibly changed the multiple girl arcs into one narrative and one MC into 3 MCs. So with all the efforts spent adapting the VNs into a single-narrative story in anime, the result was a disaster. After this debacle the omnibus format started to get more popular, and I would say for good reason.
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.

Hmm… that's too bad since i hardly find omnibus innovative. My main issue with this structure is that it’s pretty much lifted wholesale from the VN itself. Many VN's follow the omnibus format and when their anime adaptions follow suit it can feel more like a copy/paste job than an actual adaptation. Of course not every one that takes this format is like this, but it’s very hard to avoid if you’re going to go through every arc and just reset at the end of each one.

EDIT : I haven't played Kimikiss VN yet, and honestly surprised that this good romance anime received bad receptions in Japan.

You may treasure innovation more than others but the buying consumers treasure a lot more about adapting the VNs reasonably faithfully and recreating the mood it gives to the player/watcher. Your issue about it being wholesale lifting is precisely what fans of the VNs want, and yet the only really wholesale lift is the structure -- there are still tons of adaptation decisions need to be made to adapt a VN that last many hours of play into a show that has much shorter length; so it is really stretching it if you think a pure copy-and-paste operation will create an equally engaging and entertaining experience when the story is ported from VN to anime media.

Amiluhur said:

The VN itself was very popular so all the bigger pity that its anime adaptation is now viewed as one of the "darker moments" of VN adaptation in the eyes of fans in Japan.

Kimikiss was a special case. The director and writers didn't understand the psychology of the VN audience. That is, the protagonist is a self-insert character, so you can't have other guys (the protagonist's friend and that Kai character) stealing girls! Multiple romances might work in shoujo anime or soap operas, but it's suicide for a VN adaptation.

Furthermore, the pastel colors and restrained sexuality drew criticism.

Fans hated the show from Episode 1, so it was doomed right out of the gates.

The first VN is more of introduction to whats to come in the sequels, giving background information on all the characters as you do their route before "moving on".

This might be close to spoiler grounds, but what I'm about to say is all on the VN's description on VNDB.

The second VN takes place 1 year after the first. In this setting, Yuuji (the protagonist) did not "go" for any of the girls. Instead he did a little of all the routes, resolving the same problems he did in all the routes, without actually entering the romantic zone. Instead, he accepted a promotion at the CIRS and leaves Mihama academy to fight some high class terrosist. Meanwhile the girls find documents on Yuuji and learns more about him... (AKA Yuuji's past is finally revealed in detail).

The third VN, Yuuji is been detained for suspected involvement with an international terrorist organization, lead by Heath Oslo, that has managed to enter Japan's borders with a devastating new weapon of mass destruction in hand. The girl's on the other hand are facing the problem where the school will be shut down. Thankfully they can all stand on their own (thanks to Yuuji). So they decide to all work together and save the one person that's done so much for them without asking for anything in return.

So.... if the anime wants to do this right, they should NOT follow any of the routes.

The series is a good read imo, was a little disappointing that my favorite girl (Sachi) and second favorite girl (Michiru) had routes that didn't meet my expectations.

But the sequels can remedy this for me if they make Sachi go all special ops ninja maid. Oh I hope they do this xD. I mean it was hinted and teased throughout the novel that she had the potential....

I'm really looking forward to this, Grisaia is one of the top 3 VN's I've finished and I would love to see them adapt the story.

Amane's route in particular was amazing and would be incredible to see adapted.

But then I'd love to see Makina's and Sachi's routes done as well as they were both really good by my standards as well =)

Well, I ain't expecting some good studio will take this. But I will still hope this won't turn into one of the butchered VN-anime adaptations(For instance, Majikoi as I heard) since we already had enough of those bullshit.
