Well, I am a bit thrown off on how they switch moods extremely fast. I have no idea if I'm supposed to feel bad or sad at one scene and be laughing hysterically at another

Its a 50+ hours vn in a nutshell of 13 episodes, that has both great comedy and very slow but (very) good drama.
This is teh first of two episodes for one of teh 5 routes.

Its not that bad if ya know teh source, but yeah expect even moar ridiculous pacin' ahead. Better read teh vn for teh answers and watch teh anime as fanservice.

As someone who loves cats very much Meowmel's death was the most devastating scene in the episode. But Michuru's crying at the end was so half-assed like her VA didn't try at all.

If it was me I would be bawling. ; n;

Wtf!? Why did they cut off the re-enactment kiss? And it was in the living room too, not the hallways.
He actually does get to kiss her a second time. And she didn't run away either, she just got completely embarrassed to the point she was awkwardly silent and walked away slowly. And HOLY FUCK they rushed it so bad. Going to Meowmel's death in over 20 minutes wtf.. #Disappointed.

What about the beach? What about those funny moments with Sachi bullying her? And they also cut off the full part of Yumiko flicking Michiru's forhead. Man this is going horrible, rushing it so badly.

No but it was probably asked to be done this way by the director, it was the same in the VN.

Does she has split personality??
That kiss and that failed kiss :3
No, poor Meowmel T^T Someone definitely did that!!

Read some of the posts here........and it looks like it's a good thing that I don't play VNs. Still, I am missing a lot, too, but I wouldn't know so all cool.

That was terrible, it came off as funny, so as the coughing blood sound effect of the cat. Bad choice.

Straight up to Michiru's route, right? They went pretty fast I must say. Skipped a lot of things. And they kissed even in second case in novel.

But it was good. RIP Nyamel. They managed to catch those essential parts. Now the drama begins.

I'm guessing Michiru has some split personality disorder or something. Also I feel bad for her cat.

...oh no they butchered this girl's route.. oh no what's with the pacing... the VN is so much better play it instead. blah blah blah. So much for being a "anime only discussion thread"

Heh, of course most VN readers would be annoyed for the faster pacing, but I actually enjoyed this episode a lot. It was well done especially in direction, I love the director's way of adapting it. All that hurt me was the fact they cut all of the Tunafish man episode, but it was understandable.

I can understand, they need to cut off stuff, the romance parts, and speed-en up the pacing if it's 13 episodes and still stay coherent for adapting Meikyuu and Rakuen later. I admit it, while as a VN reader I'm disappointed we won't see whole of Kajitsu adapted, as a Grisaia no Kajitsu anime adaptation fan I was pleased.

Nyamel scene was still emotional, though very brief, but well done. I think if they want to adapt everything in 13 episodes, this pacing fits just right for the anime.
I'm not watching a VN playthrough, I am watching a 13 episode anime adaptation with key scenes without romance adapted. It does a great job conveying that without falter imo, Can't wait to see Meikyuu and Rakuen adapted later on, that is the main dish for me since I didn't read them yet and I'm waiting for Sekai's localizations to buy them properly.

I know every VN reader reaction was negative so far and I expected to see a bad episode, but all I see here was a good one. This is all needed for adapting it right in the minimum of 13 episodes.
Of course I wanted at least 24, but now if that's what we're getting, then I'm accepting the adaptation wholeheartedly. So I'm optimistic just as I was. That is all.


Well finally someone positive. I liked it as well.
Im an anime only watcher and so far it seems decent to me. Im usually bored quite fast but now I was not and want to keep going .

I never play VNs they take too long and a lot of hassle with patches etc ;) so im fine with this maybe eventually I play it.

I dont see the hate for anime only that is.. And VN readers couldve expected cutouts cause it is an anime not VN and has a mere 13 eps. They couldve made more eps sure but they cant do every route in full

Why this episode got 500+ comments? O.o

It doesnt feel rushed to me. I dont know what VN readers saw in VN but they complain a lot to this show. I have not read VN but this is still the good show than any other series to me.

Cat death was unexpected.

As i feared this is another adaptation solely for the vn players, as was Little Busters and Rewrite. I'm not particularly fond of female character routes, it might work in the vn but rarely does it ever translate well into an anime for me, maybe Clannad was the only one i could bear. All in all i still have no idea what the show is about or where its going, its hinted everyone is there for a purpose and has some 'issue', but 4 eps in i feel little to no progress has been made on that front, i will try to finish this first season at least but if nothing improves will most likely pass on the others.

wow it feels like this episode alone could've been made into 2cour anime with a happy ending... if the rest of this anime keeps up this quality of character development and story telling its gonna get a 9 from me. (to be a 10 it can't be a harem bc I need a clear ship for romance)

So Michiru is either an alien or has some form of multiple personality disorder, it's anime tho so who even knows if it's either of those two lol

also R.I.P Meowmel :((((((

Dropped, this anime is a piece of garbage, contains nothing, every time has a character's panty fit, 100% unnecessary ecchi, shitty and meaningless dialogues, no way. I'm not going to see 10 more ecchi-shit movies to watch a special speech about the protagonist, why can anyone write such a shit script?

I'm guessing this is some kind of Clannad or Angel Beats knockoff? Stupid comedy and fanservice and now we'll be getting the tragic backstories of all the characters. For now its the graphic death of a cat. Actually had him cough up blood. Incredible hamfisted attempt to try and bring "the feels".

I never knew Michiru had dual persona. In the VN, I didn't find her interesting.

That talk about death was interesting. IMO, if you have a way out just take it. Living is just prolonging the inevitable anyways and besides, any achievements you have done will be forgotten as soon as you are dead. Unless you are someone important to the world.
