Yes, yes, finally some more news on this :3 I really hope they don't mess up the adaptation because I'm really enjoying the manga :D
I wonder how they will end it though, the manga doesn't look like it's even near a conclusion...
"In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH

I'll give it a whirl. This studio pretty consistently bores me though. But that has probably more to do with the quality of the source materials they pick up. From what I hear this one can be funny. If a little immature.

seen Lerche's output. most of it sucks. Fate spin offs without any substance, Danganshitpa, maji watashi koi, machine doll, second hamatora.

no they suck alright. The currently airing AssClass is prob their best work and I still find it meh.

Gave them plenty of chance~

It has nothing to do with the studio itself. More with source material, director and scriptwriter. This time it's not a problem.

And no. Carnival Phantasm was good and Machine Doll is decent adaptation just that primary sources is not for your taste probably.

You're right; it's not Lerche's problem, it's mainly the directors and screenwriters they choose to work with. Thankfully, neither of the two are working on this project, so it should be fine.
The source material looks pretty bad, though, so who knows?

It's guilty pleasure territory. As long as the anime adaptation keeps the levels of egdy and ecchi through the roof it should make for a fun ride.

Great (if overdone) premise? Check.
No possibility of keeping the story quality high through multiple arcs? Check.
Plot continuing on anyway? Check.

Not a bad comparison. At least GG doesn't have a harem and the plot can handle a few more story arcs without totally breaking immersion.

I like the fact that the author is working in the anime, haven't read the source but that's a good thing, he's also doing quite a bit of stuff eventhough he's pretty new to the anime scene, hopefully that's with good reason.
I know I'll enjoy this regardless.

The manga is actually surprisingly well done (especially considering the synopsis) and very atmospheric. The staff list looks promising and it's great that the original author is working with the anime team.

so you say it has nothing to do with the studio when they are the ones who decide what to adapt and whom to give the project to? lol?

carnival phantasm is for type moon fans who enjoy their characters goofing around and machine doll was a generic light novel adaptation with ultra bland characters and little to no story...

Yet this show won't be about characters from another franchise goofing around and it isn't a generic light novel, what's your point?

At first, I was thinking, "Maybe I can try to watch it..." but then I gave it some extra thought, and in the end, I decided, "Nah, I'm out."

And I realized that not very many upcoming anime have piqued my interest lately. Although, I guess that's a good thing, because of how overwhelmed I get with watching so much anime at once. ^^;

it will however be about 13 year old cute girls in a survival school setting. *sigh*

you saw my original post right? Synopsis sounds retarded and it's done by a studio that hasn't done anything of worth yet which indicates that they have poor decision making in terms of staff
