| The OST sounds quite good! Looking forward to see the PV. And yay for Eri Sasaki! |
 |
| Heard great things about the VN for years now. Also, based Shikura Chiyomaru inb4 obligatory "it's a VN adaptation so it's gonna suck", so tired of seeing these over the years. Are you prophets? |

| I hate how lame and vague the synopsis is written. Scientist-man father who does science or something goes missing and a letter or something says there's alternate worlds. Uh, here, have a half naked girl on the front cover so you'll maybe be interested. |
 |
| Is this an isekai? :P |

| I'm definitely interested in the plot.. Though not sure how I'll feel about the art |
| Might end up watching. |
| For those who never heard about the original VN: Yu-NO is the grandfather of story heavy VN. It has a very complicated multi timeline story where you could and must jump from one timeline to another many times to progress the story, and progressing without a walkthrough is gonna be a frustrating experience. To say this was an ambitious project is an understatement; It practically was the first VN that try to bet everything in its story, with a complexity that is almost unrivalled by any modern VN. Without Yu-NO maybe you will never see VN like Steins;Gate or Muv Luv now as every VN before this never progress very far from being a short porn game. That said, if you play the game now (which is almost 20 y.o now) it might have aged a bit. The art is old (which I actually love), gameplay is very clunky, and some story tropes like the classic strong-slacker-perverted protagonist might be very outdated by now. However, it could still stand as one of the best VN of all time just because of the scale, complexity and raw quality of the VN even by current standard. However this is the adaptation of All-Age remake which is not yet released yet, so don't hold your breath yet. It is possible that they might screw this up royally, buf I hope they won't. |
| This sounds really interesting! Looking forward to it! |
| Yeah this is pretty huge for sure. YU-NO is pretty much to VNs what Evangelion was to anime for its time. Has to be considered the most famous visual novel of the 1990s. The game itself hasn't aged very well honestly, but the upcoming remake of it next year should be pretty hype and seeing a modern anime of it could be really good as well |
  |
| More like, "no, yu", amirite? |
 |
| Inb4 another one-cour only trainwreck |

Oh please, It's a trainwreck only good if you have a giant incest fetish, and I don't even mean the brother-sister thing that's popular nowadays. The second part may be one of the worst thing I ever read even if you take that out. It will be fun trying to see Yu-no shills trying to recommend it to the average anime viewer kek tho'. The story only flies because of the abyssal standards of the VN community. |

Visual Novel Cast Takuya Arima: Nobuyuki Hiyama (Genshiken) Hiyama voiced him in the original. Since it's based on remake, Yuu Hayashi should be listed as Takuya here. |
| Will try for that nice ost.............. |
| Plot seems nice S2S2S2S2 |

| @Stark700 Yuu Hayashi's link is sending us to another profile page. |
|
Fixed. Hmm, not sure what happened there lol |
|
| Sounds like it could be quite an interesting one to follow whenever it eventually airs. |
| This one sounds oddly familiar to Time Travel Shoujo from last season... Hopefully it'll be better? |

HaXXspetten said: Yeah that looks about right. I would've expected WA2 to swap places with it by now Lol at 4 titles having less than 100 votes and being ranked higher than ones with 4000-1000. |
SuperRed said: Well they don't have any minimum vote count and don't use the bayesian rating system so yeah you should probably just ignore Chaos;Child x3 and Eve Burst ErrorLol at 4 titles having less than 100 votes and being ranked higher than ones with 4000-1000. Also seeing BSD1 up there but not BSD2 is pretty strange.. |
| |
| Hmm... YU-NO that allows him to travel to alternate dimensions I'm expecting something something YUKIIII along the line. |
 |
| Sounds interesting. Going to try. |
 |
| look like they upgrading a lot huh... |

Also seeing BSD1 up there but not BSD2 is pretty strange.. Baldr Sky Drive 2 is in, just not actually top 15 which I screenshotted. The ranking list is very long and I can't screenshot the entire list. In fact, Drive 2 is right below Muramasa at #16 |

| Hopefully it turns into something decent, if the remake of vn doesn't get PC release, I probably will never play it anyway ;_; |
  |
| 2 cours, 2018 premiere, w. key visual http://moca-news.net/article/20171229/2017122910130a_/01/ |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| w a o w thats a surprise always wanted to read the VN hopefully the remake on that front is an update on the graphics/engine and not an entire retelling of the story |
I think it's safe to say the old art was better. |
As for some others:   |
