| First P.A. Works adaptation in awhile. Haven't heard much about the novels before but I'm looking forward to this. |
|
| Sounds interesting. Will watch. |
| the character design reminds me with danganronpa (the girl especially) |
 |
| Sounds like Hyouka, just don't be as boring as Hyouka. |
| Mhm sounds interesting,let's hope the "mystery" will be better than in a certain other anime tho. Will watch. |
 |
| sounds pretty interesting. might pick it up. |
 |
Nice to see my favorite illustrator Namaniku ATK there. One series in 2016 I'll be looking forward to. |

| I don't really know much about the novels, but I'll watch anyway. This could be good. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Might check this out. Last work I really enjoyed of P.A. was Nagi no Asukara, heard Shirobako is decent too. |
| female has utapri eyes scary male looks okay? but yeah i'll be following this for sure |
| Music and mystery... hm~ I don't find the charadesign intriguing, so I'll be waiting for more info about staff/cast. |
| This will be the first non-original P.A. Works anime since Uchouten Kazoku (Summer 2013). Definitely looking forward to it. With this being a 2016 anime, Charlotte now has the potential of being a two-cours series. |
| Looks interesting...forensic scnese huh.. reminds me of Hyouka though |
| Another Generic LN woohoo! This is the 2nd coming of Glasslip but with music! i`ll pass. |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| It sounds like Hyouka with a Little bit twist of Hibike! Euphonium. lol P.A Works you've made it Not famillar with the Director. The character designs looks okay, I'll wait for Info before I set it as PTW |
 |
| Whoa. Homos, classical music AND pa works? I'm fucking hype now |
| That girl looks like she's from a horror movie or something. |
 |
| Ooh, P.A. Works! I'm definitely on board for this. Kind of interesting. Hmm, part of a band but also solving mysteries. That's sound a bit random, but I'll look forward to this. |

Works, but liked that they were doing original anime rather than adaptations...But, this could be interesting I guess. Is it adapting a novel, or a light novel? If it's a regular novel, then it could be particularly interesting. It's adapting a novel series. But yeah, Charlote has potential to be a 2 cour now, assuming this airs at Winter 2016 at the very best. |

| Mystery huh? Sounds interesting :) |

I'm fucking hype now What's the last mystery novel (not light novel) adaptation that had a male and female character who were romantically interested in the same male character...haven't I seen this before...OSNAP SPOILER ALERT Shinsekai Yori?! SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN and ssy had classical music This is gonna be amazing af |
| Looks very interesting |
| What is the most cowardly and shameful thing in human conduct? It's when people with power and people who flatter them hide in safe places and extol war, force patriotism and self-sacrifice on others, then send them to the battlefield to die. For the sake of peace in the universe, before we continue this fruitless war with the Empire, mustn't we first start by exterminating such evil parasites? - Yang Wenli |
| Will watch, any series that has mystery in it is always welcome. |
| I'll probably check this out , however I will honestly say that I'm not a big fan of watching homo's. |
 |
| Err people... It's NOT because it's not published by a LN label that it's automatically better than something published by a LN label... I know of this title, haven't read it myself though, but from what I've read about it, the level of mystery is rather low. It's several mysteries in each short volumes, with an all-knowing main character and unbelievable reaction from characters, underdeveloped personality, and very convenient coincidences. It will probably be enjoyable as an anime, just like... Hyouka was. If you don't like Hyouka, I'm not sure you'll enjoy this one. |

Or are the two title characters the main leads? |

I feel like I've seen the art style for the covers somewhere before...like, maybe a bl manga?? Maybe not though. It just seems familiar. Annnd it looks like I was right, after a quick search. The covers are drawn by Yamanaka Hiko, although I've actually never read anything from this artist. The style just looked really BL-ish to me. Anyways, sounds quite interesting. I'm mostly interested because PA Works. But classical music and homos are a plus. |

| Mystery - im in :) |

Hahalollawl said: Who is the all-knowing main character, male or female? I guess I was hoping this might be Shinsekai Yori meets Shigatsu but perhaps that was overly optimistic... male. The girl has the "Watson role" in this. Do you also perhaps know how many main characters there are? Or are the two title characters the main leads? looking at the wiki, AFAIK, it confirms that it's mostly those two ("Haru" and "Chika"), but it's about a club, so the teacher in charge is a recurring character, the club president as well, and several other students joins the club after a little while (as soon as the second and third story it seems). Can't say anything more. |

Another, Red Data Girl, and Uchouten Kazoku were all standard bunko novels. |

| Might not be interesting... |

If it's a regular novel, then it could be particularly interesting. P.A. Works has only adapted novels, never manga or light novels. Another, Red Data Girl, and Uchouten Kazoku were all standard bunko novels. Actually, this is incorrect. Red Data girls by the time the anime was airing was available both as a novel label AND a LN label. So while RDG was originally a novel label, it is also under a LN label (volumes after the 1st and 2nd were published in the LN label during the anime airing). Since it's obviously the same content in both label (so we're not talking about an adaptation from novel to LN, this is identical), saying that PAWorks only adapted novel isn't correct. All of their adaptations were published in novel label, yes. But not only in novel label. Another is in a similar situation, since it was as well released in a LN label afterwards. However, in that precise case, the anime started one month before the release of the LN label version. |
