There is no evil in Komari's world. That's just the way she is.

Kurugaya rules !!! So happy to see her casting her cool aside for a moment and RULES ! ;-)
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.

The episode went by so fast that I could barely see over! Was already longing for Little Busters! Surely it would be the best anime of the year, JC Staff animation has improved a lot, at least in the budget entering the initial episode arc Yuiko, by the way, has started very good, her scenes with Riki reminded me of the Visual Novel ;;

Looking forward to next week!

You Never know, they might do a RikixRin romance ending, or RikixKurugaya. The EX Season has nothing to do with after refrain :)

I'm pretty sure what they mean is:
"Whoever Riki ends up with at the end of Little Busters!: Refrain will be irrelevant in Little Busters!: EX."

They can do make him end up with Rin or whatever, but the EX routes are other routes from the VN and they could put some romance in those as well.

Well, yes because Saya's route is romance-heavy just like Kurugaya's route while the other 2 aren't really.

Looks better than I expected. It's good that they've decided to put more money into this show. Hope they can keep up with this quality through the rest of the season.

In terms of romance for EX routes, it'd be hard to do without the romance in at least Saya's route. The other two have easier to deal with parts that wouldn't necessarily require romance.

Now I'm really confused, as a guy who doesn't know the story. So many hints that there is something else going on around here.

Kurugaya arc I see. Interesting I wonder how it will play out, I wonder if the girls will come back with a vengence.

Ah, couldn't complete the game in time after all. The difference between watching anime after the VN, rather than before, is so big though! I was disappointed with how they solved the door breaking thing (I found the VN version funnier), and all those hints right in the first episode felt kind of too sudden/out of place. Other than that, it was a good episode!

This episode felt like 5 minutes. Oh how I've missed the Little busters~
I've grown so attached to this anime and it's characters, it's one of my favorites.
And that's coming from someone that almost dropped the first season but decided to give it a chance and I got hooked after episode 6 or so.

And Little Busters! EX does not have canonicity with the main story. They are there as extras; something fun to read and enjoy, a story to tell and incentive to buy the damn VN knowing that the H-scenes were a musical and literary holocaust (from what I hear, and Sha-la-la whatever song is bad too).

Not to mention that Kurugaya's end probably isn't canon either. If everyone thinks it through, you have the main ending to the story after playing Refrain twice, each separate ending for the routes, Kurugaya's true ending after playing Refrain, and the EX routes. You can't have them all merge into one canon storyline. People here need to stop doing that. It will most likely simply go the way it did in the VN, as mentioned above.

IMO thats the best couple anyway.

Okay. Let me fill the gap. If EX routes aren't canon, therefore they aren't written by any of the Key staffs but no. Plus, they're connected and continuation to the main storyline, hence sequel(At least Kanata's and Sasami's routes).

Did you ever played the EX routes before spouting shit? They're canon because they're written by the Key writers and they're interconnected to the main story whether you like it or not. Deal with it.

Plus, H-scenes are totally irrelevant and THAT'S THE ONE YOU SHOULD SUPPOSE TO SAY THAT THEY'RE EXTRAS BECAUSE H-SCENES DOESN'T AFFECT TO THE DAMN STORY.

her voice is fine, but she talks too slow sometimes that she seems like a child, eg episode 16 when she tries cheering Haruka up q.q though in this episode she seemed a lot more normal :3

but man, after seeing this episode, watching episodes from season 1 is hard to enjoy now Q.Q

Good episode I guess; I see a number of hints being dropped which might not even be hints since I'm trying to predict the story too, but the foreshadowing is strong and intriguing. The start bit with the pancake party wasn't bad but it reminded me of something, that this show was preceded by 24 episodes of mostly mediocrity so I'm certainly expecting more from this than what's been shown thus far.

That said, this certainly took us a step close to the 'Secret of the World' which they've done a good job so far of keeping it under wraps.

Wow. I was extremely happy with this episode. I really didn't care for almost all of the first season. But this episode was fantastic. I love Kurugaya, she was such a badass. The foreshadowing was great, even though I still don't know what it isl leading up to. Also dat OP.

Really excited for next week (never thought I would say that about Little Busters).

It's here, finally!
First ep kinda did its job to remind us everything from season one and we also get nice friendship scene with pancakes :)

And Kuragaya route set I guess, my favorite :) First time they showed the date! (but it will be important this time). Bullying part was done kinda fast I guess. And again, everyone is taking part not just that one girl unlike in novel which is good and it makes their bonds deeper (though I hope those ending flashbacks were there just to tease viewers and they take their time to go through it - at least 3-4 episodes would be great - I hope they don't rush it). Anyone know if this is full 26-ep season series or only half-cour? (cause no way could the fit it into 13 episodes)

Mio's new (VN) seiyuu is there though she hasn't said anything important just yet.

Well, anyway, it's nice to be back on track again :)
