not everyone played the VN. this feels like a giant plot hole.

so the rebellion just stopped. there's no reunion scene. she escaped a steel chain with a teleported gear thing. who needs logic and continuation when you got WAFUUUUU!

There better be a season 2 to explain all this...


This better not be a "Read the source material to get the explanation" type of anime, cuz I fucking hate those kind of adaptions.

Dam are they going to skip Kurugaya's arc? that would be kind of disappointing , though 26 episodes was clearly not enough . So many things were so rushed. This episode was pretty nice. Though i would love to see how Kud manages to meet her mother though . Or find some clothes hahahahaa.

In terms of the episode, that was pretty good and the adaptation overall was better than expected. Riki's progression is going as one would expect and the support from everyone including Futaki. <3 the fact that Futaki is around helping out all the time too, and how everyone gets together to support her. I'm surprised even Mio talks about her and believes in her. I'm also enjoying the time that Riki spends with Rin, their development as a pair and individually is finally starting to be come more clear. I'm not surprised that they made Kud hear everyone's voice, but it was still quite interesting. The gear scene was a little anti-climactic and felt short, but man that beautiful sky outside really fit in. Overall thoughts for the episode was that it felt a little too condensed and the conclusion feels a bit off compared to the other routes so far. The ending though was emotional and cute at the same time, as one would expect of Kud.

Apart from the "WTF GEAR" moment (which I think would be explained after this and didn't supposed to make sense for now), I am more confused with the appearance of Haruka and Mio.

F**k I guess I won't speculate anything anymore.

Still, a kinda weak episode for those who didn't know about the secret of the world, but I guess I'll just treat Kud and upcoming Kurugaya as a "preparation" for the later events. Bringing my hope up for Rin2 and Refrain, though. That part with Riki and Rin was sweet.

My interpretation, based on the anime alone, is that those anti-government people strip her naked to examine her (perhaps her body painting?) and leave her naked as a humiliation, but fearing she might catch cold and get ill, let her keep the cloak. But of course I am purely speculating here.

I have not played the VN but from what I read in Japanese forum those who have played the VN are saying the anime made it easier to understand Kud's route than in the VN. I wonder how true this is.

Also according to what I read, it seem in real world
CONTAINS SECRET OF THE WORLD VN SPOILER
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.

LB is a VN right? So, like any Key VNs, you have a common route, then you have to go through all the heroine routes, then you unlock the final route, which is when the shit hits the fan. Rin 2 is Rin's full route, which you get from finishing all the heroine routes. Rin 2 ends in cliffhanger, which is resolved in Refrain directly after. The reason they're spoken of as distinct segments is that a lot...changes...between the heroine/common routes and Refrain.

Think of it like Clannad school life and then Clannad Afterstory, but even Clannad AS was a direct following on. Refrain is a little different.

Rin2 and Refrain is the main scenario of LB! and they are the reason behind LB!'s big reputation. It's basically season 2 which will answer all of your questions.
However if JC staff somehow manages to miraculously stuff it up, I will have the same reaction as Riki in the post above.

No, there is no evidence that Kud was sexually assaulted while imprisoned in the VN. It's pretty much the same in the anime as the VN.

NOOOOO it's happening! Everyone's looking down on Kud route because of the lame deus ex machina! NOOOOO! It's explained (sort of) in Refrain!!!

So yeah. I clicked on a few spoiler tabs in this thread.

I'm still confused though. But I sort of now know why Kyousuke seemed to know some stuff.

I still can't rate this episode too. It still feels deus ex machina, but I'm ganna ignore it.

Almost felt like an ending. I take it that the gear has a connection to the secret of the world then? World reset???? Parallel world theories?! MAGIC! I love all that stuff.

Kinda awkward. What kind of Government is that? Bringing in civilians in the time of turmoil like that? Seemed to have slacked off not putting that fire or whatever. Well, it's from a retired island... I guess the US or Russia or some other European country must've sent some troops to help out there haha.

That adaption of the final part of Kud episode was okey, I was a bit disappointed they skipped out of where Kud calls Riki as she gets abducted by the rebels and the calls end suddenly as she yells out to Riki. That part was a tough thing to read in the VN and was some sort of looking forward to it. But nonetheless, it wasn't a bad adaption in the end.

The episode ended with some Key magic, but I missed the long dialogue she were having with Riki with the sound of the chain in the background, it added a lot to that scene and felt more taken into the environment than the anime portrayed it, though they wrapped the route up really well. At least kudos for that. Kud is one of the better routes in Little Busters and glad it got a decent adaption at least, I also loved the part where we get to follow Kud to here homeland and see her Grandfather.

Also some Refrain\Rin2 flashbacks! They came out of nowhere and caught me off guard there.


Lolz, I had to laugh at that one. XP

Well looking forward to the next episode now! Not many episodes left of the 1st season!
