| Looks like more and more popular eroges are being animated. not that i'm complaining as long as they adapt em well. |
| ok, so it's this fall according to the official site. Now I'm really worried if they can adapt this well in half a year.  |
edwd2 said: I don't think this information is in the official site. The image you quoted seems to be from some general anime sites. The information about a fall schedule seems to be from some fans attending an event. So far I cannot find any confirmation from official source. Not to say that I don't believe a fall schedule - just want to stress that all we have so far is only information provided by fans.ok, so it's this fall according to the official site. By the way, key visual from the official website looks quite good:  |

| 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. |
| Back when the first show aired it was only months since I had started watching anime and couldn't fully comprehend everything (tropes and what not) going on, and I remember being quite annoyed and disgusted with the male lead, but I've really come to appreciate the show, now looking back on it. I can only hope the same in this case. And please let there be a theme song by Uehara. |
| White Album 2's one of the highest-rated visual novels out there [next to MLA and Clannad]. If a shit studio picks this up, it's going to suck [i.e. if the studio who adapted the first season picks this up, you're better off waiting for the finished translation of the novel]. If it's someone credible, then it's probably still going to suck [you cannot adapt 50 hours + of reading time within ~13 episodes, it would be difficult even with 26]. |

Apparantly Satelight is picking this up.. according to the OP. |
| I just hope the male lead is less of a complete cunt than he was in the first season. Seriously the girls seemed interesting and I liked the whole idol thing, but damn that guy was a douchebag and made it painful to watch. |
marconii2002 said: And anime will be have 50 episodes Source http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-15545.html Wtf? are you serious? holyshit i definitely wouldn't mind. |
| Romance anime appears generic to people who use anime to gary stu. They can't connect with a guy who has a girlfriend, the concept is alien to them. |
jmal said: And that source also said it will cover only the IC (Introductory Chapter). It seems that CC (Closing Chapter) and Coda, supposed to be the main story of the VN, won't be covered in the coming anime.Another source is saying 13 episodes, and they'll only make more if it sells. Also overheard at an event. In other words, nothing is official on episode count yet. |

Aerbage said: Why no closing chapter? :( Because you can't watch closing chapter without going through introductory chapter first. If they decided to delicate the whole first season to IC, I'll be fine with that. Moreover, unlike Muv Luv Extra, IC is great and very emotional in the end. However, I highly doubt Satelight will use that approach because there isn't enough content in IC to be stuffed into the whole first season (6-8 ep for IC will be ideal). If you let the game play in auto mode, you will finish IC in about 8-9 hours and it's just like watching an anime (IC is linear). Again, as symbv said, nothing is official yet. |

| i have been meaning to watch the first season in a long time but for some reason i always forget |
jmal said: The 50 ep thing was just what someone posted overhearing at some kind of event. It's not official. http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-15553.html Another source is saying 13 episodes, and they'll only make more if it sells. Also overheard at an event. In other words, nothing is official on episode count yet. 4 cour is extremely unlikely without being split into multiple seasons for a late night anime anyway. Yes, a 4 cour show in late night is basically unheard of. However, 50 episodes total doesn't seem very far fetched though. Large budget VN adaptions can get split 2 cour adaptions. Little Busters and Clannad are some more recent examples. Of course, it can go with the Majikoi style of bullshit and end up with a terrible 1 cour adaption, but I would not be surprised if this was 2 cour in the Fall of 2013 followed by a second one in the Fall of 2014. |
| Ok™ |
| lol holy crap this looks like something that would come out on live action tv in the 90's for asia. The brown hair girl reminds me of Asuka from Eva so much. The characters look pretty and looks like they also have really friendly personalities. I'll watch this just for those perfect oldschool friendly, nice characters. The only problem I thinking this anime could have is the characters problems might be very exaggerated. |
Mika_Inamori said: I'll watch this just for those perfect oldschool friendly, nice characters. The only problem I thinking this anime could have is the characters problems might be very exaggerated. Don't worry, WA's story will stay as realistic as possible, so unless the production studio somehow messes it up, the anime won't have that problem. (Actually it's too realistic that sometimes I really wish that it had more "happy go lucky" , cliche moments here and there to ease off the tension built up throughout the story...) |

| I'm pretty hype for this. Even tho the first one made me rage alot. -w-" |
| I'm HYPED as F**K..seriously...from a guy who uses "Taishi Kuhonbutsu as a Profile Pic, You'll probably know how HYPED I am NOW) I just hope they can adapt it well, and if it's true that the first cour will be IC dedicated, then I'm positive that the 2nd cour will probably be half and half with CC and Coda. Or 2nd cour purely for CC, and Coda will be made into a movie... lol Treekodar said: Looks like any other romance anime. Looks can be deceiving.. We won't know until they adapt this, but I'm positive that it's not just some other romance anime. And The fact the VN market in Japan is actually serious, despite with all the "porn games" going on. If a "romance genre" won most of the awards in 2011, than it's obviously one heck of a romance story. Based on Getchu Awards, "General Winner" |

-2011, White Album 2 (Romance Drama) Fixed this piece. :p WA PS3 ver was released in 2011 and the PC port was released in 2012 so if you put it like that, someone may be mistaken. Personally I trust erogamescape top list more than getchu award. This is the best 100 eroges of all time by egs in the period from 1994 to 2011. 2012 adds some more titles to the list but they are nowhere near the top 10. Just skip to top 20 if you don't want to spend 25 minutes watching it. :p Ah, and in case you wonder where Clannad, Symphonic Rain, Stein;Gate or Ever17 are. They are not eroge, thus not listed here. They have 90, 89, 90,90 medians in that order. |

Man, I fucked that up...lol, (I have all the PS3 ports... :P) Never used erogamescape, since the site "confuses" me when I was starting to play VNs Raw. (I'm a very visual guy, so the lack of pics and buttons confuses me), On the other hand getchu was very pleasing to my brain, so I've been using it since forever... lol You know what site that can't be really "trusted"? VNDB.. lol for the simple reason that if it's not in english, it's not worth the time... lol |

| I want to forget the first "white album" but I can't why cause it has got to be the worst anime ending I have ever seen.... and the mc don't get me started on the sob. I was sooo pissed when I watched it years ago. I will watch this but the second i see it going the same route as the first i'm out. |

| 5 months *_* |

| Awesome news! But I can't understand all the bashing aganist the first white albume anime. I for myself foud it to be an outstanding and mature anime. Great plot, even greater music and enthralling atmosphere. One of my favourite romance animes. Even if some may didn't like the mc, that doesn't make the anime itself bad. And for the ending..memorable IMO: |
| Too lazy to actually write something. Wait.. I did. Damn |
| I'm just a little skeptical, knowing anime's track record of outstanding VN adaptations and all, but at least there's nothing messy like branching story-lines involved. Might be worth watching. |

Well ye I guess, even though it's not anticipated as a classic, the storyline obviously brings something really good to the table. I find it really unique as in setting and storyline. As of dark VNs it brings forth the dystopic setting extremely well |

Some character designs revealed |
| 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. |
| Female leads don't look nearly as eye-catching as Yuki and Rina did. Not a good start for me. |
| Another key visual: |

Aerbage said: No doubt it is going to be an amazing adaptation but sadly this is only the introductory chapter and I like the other chapters more. Also a completely different character design from the visual novel (at least the PC version), not sure if I like it more or not. Designs 95% similar to PS3 version IMHO. Speaking honestly I don't like both designs much but at least this once looks less edgy than PC once. |

| OMG. I remember the first one. Definitely giving this a whirl. |
