 |
| Good thing I'm downloading the VN right now lol 18 is such a weird number though |
| 12 will be aired on TV, the rest 6 will be an OVA from what I heard. I'm reading this too, currently on Rea route. |
|
| Sad ... now I'm not gonna watch it 2cour or gtfo |
 |
| LOL why would you watch this edgy show? Kidding I just like triggering people, happy crunchyroll got the license. and 18 is a weirder than 10 and 11. |
I'm a shitposter for fun |
| I mean if they're really just adapting Marie's route (with some alterations) as reports suggest then 18 eps might be sufficient tbh. We'll see how it goes, but having a break (of some sort) after episode 12 will be a bit awkward |

Vulnus said: lol you wishThe only way I see this working is if the first 12 episodes adapt the common route, and the 6 OVA episodes are 30-40 minutes that adapt Marie's. also 30 minutes isnt that long; they'd need 40 to be suitable length |
| To be fair, You can have an acceptable adaption of this in 18 episodes, but acceptable isn't going to be amazing or all-encompassing so for the entire story you're going to have to go to the VN. Its unfortunate that studios these days only make anime as a form of promotional material but when it comes to VNs, I've almost accepted that 9 times out of 10, you're going to get a shitty half-assed adaption. What you're probably not going to get with this is depth, at least not at the level of detail in the visual novel. I doubt they'll spend a lot of time developing the backstory of the round table as the "other story" side chapters do. There is parts of the common route that honestly drag a bit, so there is fat they can cut without compromising the integrity of the plot. Some sacrifices will have to be made for an 18 episode adaption though. |
| No one expected anything ..... and we're still disappointed ~ |
| Wow anything short of 24 episodes is well...probably be rushed.Hope there are some 40 minutes OVAs included |

So we probably won't see this guy in full glory.RIP |

| Cannot be worst than Rewrite which I haven't finished watching. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

So we probably won't see this guy in full glory.RIP He is relevant in every route tho well unless they do kasumi route but doubt though that one could actually plausibly fit into 18 episodes unlike the others |

| Better than the previous info of 14, so...yay? Can work if they rush the common route, that no one truly cares to see properly animated, let's be real. Almost every1 actually is there just to see the animated versions of the fights+the Briahs+some characters moving. They can just rush it all to cram late Rea's fights inside, for the sake of fan-appeal. The story wil likely be condensed and make no sense at all for anime only watcher, likely. Well it was a kickstarter project, they got budget for 18 epis in a small studio, that's it. They could have gone for Ikabey first, who is short as hell, and could work in 6 episodes at most... |
| FGO NA Code: 482.072.599 (F2P thug life of savings...) Ben-to! best nonsensical action anime. Ever. |
| Thats good news. Most shows get 12 episodes, and 18 is better than what I expected |
You said: 12 will be aired on TV, the rest 6 will be an OVA from what I heard. I'm reading this too, currently on Rea route. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2017-09-23/dies-irae-anime-to-have-12-tv-episodes-6-online-episodes/.121759 12 TV and 6 online |
| well, could be worst, specially for an anime backed up by kickstarter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

| Not only it got 18 eps total (12 TV + 6 Online), it seems like the eps. start with ep.0 and ends with ep.17 (online starts with ep.12). http://diesirae-anime.com/bdbox/ http://diesirae-anime.com/bdbox/03.html |

IkaBey would have worked quite well as an 6 ep OVA series. Plus less character backstories to juggle around |
| Honestly, I am fine with the number of episodes. Restricting a story to a predetermined length that simply is not appropriate, while practical, does hinder the story telling aspects for many stories, especially those too short or too long. |
 |
| Hello all. An anime-only-watcher here. I noticed the 18 episodes as well which seems odd. But the synopsys looks pretty interesting. Might have to play the Visual Novel, aside from watching the series. |

Izanagi said: Episode 0 is a separate entry, 11 episodes of the TV anime, and a 6 episode ONA sequel. That makes it 18 eps in total.How come the number of episodes dropped to just 11 now?? |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| this thread was too right Shinsuke_Sama said: Is it okay if I watch the adaptation first and read the VN after? I sort of only want to watch it as an introduction so I'm not expecting much from the anime. no definitely not, it's a bad introduction that'll spoil quite a few major plot points while obfuscating others unnecessarily |
FontSize72LOL said: but when it comes to VNs, I've almost accepted that 9 times out of 10, you're going to get a shitty half-assed adaption. Yep, after so many let downs like Rewrite, Fate, Grisaia, etc. I've pretty much given up on studios being able to properly adapt visual novels. They never want to put the time and effort to really get the sufficient amount of episodes and really committing to adapting each route to the fullest. Many of them just go the "easy" way and combine multiple elements of many routes into one, instead of taking a more unconventional approach in writing style and after completing one route, going back in time and adapting the other routes. That doesn't happen. At least the recent Fate adpatations they give a series to each route which is awesome (even if I have some qualms with how UBW was adapted, I appreciate the effort). It's a sad thing. Many visual novels have such awesome stories, but anime studios either struggle or just don't care enough to really make it into an awesome and worthy adaptation. I guess there's just not enough money and time, but hey, a man can dream that one day it'll be better right? Until then I think I'm going to skip on future anime adaptations of VNs, especially ones of my favs. I'm gonna check out Dies Irae on Steam hopefully soon and skip the anime. |

Dies Irae will be much better in VN form, I can assure you of that. I think the only upcomming VN adaption i'm actually looking forward to is Steins;Gate 0. There is a smaller chance that the series will end up butchered considering that is a cash cow franchise. I'm just hoping the rest of Dies Irae is not going to be as bad as episode 0. I wasn't expecting stellar animetography with this, but honestly my already low expectations weren't met with that. |
