Some of these comments are hilarious XD Oda(voice of Kengo): Kengo didn’t have much screentime, so my impressions didn’t change much… (laugh) He’ll work harder in Little Busters! ~Refrain~! They won’t call me Salary Thief Oda next time!! Canna: I’m grateful for everyone’s support since the game. I feel like I love Little Busters even more now that the anime has aired. There are still plenty of episodes remaining, so we’re eagerly waiting for that as well. I want to create a Muscles Sensation next season too, so I’m training every day in preparation! Look forward to it!! ^We better get that LOL |

| Oh,I loved the interview! They all seemed so happy about the anime,and all! But now,related to the topic,I guess it was a awesome anime,and yes,I played the VN twice before,and they made a very good adaption,and since Refrain is even better,I guess it will. |
| I doubt it |
 |
| not even the top 100 |
| Haven't seen the show, but with an 8.26 average and only 5 episodes to go, there's not a chance in hell it will even break the top 50. The only reason it's as high as it is now is because it's a sequel and it's fans will rate it high automatically. |
 |
| Judging by how shallow people here is to rate, I doubt. Top 100 probably. If they do the climax right. |
| New on Myanimelist. |
Ol-Hybrius said: It was #200 two weeks ago and it's now #231 so I really doubt it will be even in the top 100. I think that is because people dont really know how to rate the show yet. There are a lot of thing that they think don´t have a meaning and don´t believe everything will be explained. |
| New on Myanimelist. |
| Nope. It's rare for a half-core to be that high. Unless it's a Gintama. |
| just imagine by the climax of the series, it skyrockets to top 100. It's highly impossible but if they execute the secret of the world episode perfectly, I'd give it a slight chance that it would move up |
| I love the tsundereness of this series. It's been way more emotionally compelling than the first one. The first few episodes with Kurugaya as the main heroine I thought my heart would burst. Now with Rin and his fighting with Kyousuke I can't wait for episodes 9-13. |
| Dr. Sheldon Cooper " It is no way to make new humans. People coming out of people. Some kind of dirty magic show. |
| At this point in the series, I would say highly unlikely. At the beginning, the potential was definitely there. 100% potential. Well... Unless this season takes a 180 Degree turn and pull out some skull-shattering plot twists. Its probably going to stay a 7-8 at the most. I would actually welcome a skull-shattering plot twist that completely blows the VN storyline out of the water. RIKI IS ACTUALLY AN INTER-DIMENSIONAL TRAVELER WHO LOSES HIS MEMORY AND FORM EVERY TIME HE TRAVELS! And all the characters in LB are actually Riki and his multiple personalities fighting in his unconscious to assume dominance over his mind. The two strongest being Kengo and Masato who are constantly trying to best each other for "Riki's" mind. Then theres Kyousuke, who is Riki's ideal persona. He always chases after him, but can't get on his Level. Yes, even the girls. Thats why Riki sounds like a girl while *kind of* looking like a boy. See, it's all in his head. There is actually only one character in this entire series. Riki = Jun Maeda This is why it's his greatest creation. Because it is him. Holy flying spaghetti balls batman. I FIGURED IT OUT GUIZ!!! XOXOXO. |
| my soul your riki? You know if that was the actual plotwist I probably would adore it haha. |
| @Ol-hybrius I'm interested. Can you post it in the VN thread? |

| Another thing that kind of makes this season's rating kind of sketchy is that less than 4000 people are watching/rating the show right now. Almost no one is even watching Refrain, so even if it DID break into the top 5 it would still just be because the small audience uprated it. Kill la Kill has over 17k, Nagi no Asukara and Outbreak Company are around 7k, Golden Time has 10k, and sequels like IS and Monogatari are also way above 3k. So the rating of this show isn't even very representative so far. |

Anyway, if you look at something like Angel Beats, the scores went up while after it ended and the show became more popular and mainstream. Shinsekai Yori and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and Psycho-Pass also soared high up once they ended, and continued to rise a for a while after. Some shows may have flaws that don't appeal to the mainstream, and some shows may become lower rated once they become more mainstream, like Sword Art Online. There's also the fact that show scores usually rise once a show ends, unless the last episodes destroy the show. Anyway, give some time after the show ends for it to gain popularity for more feasible data. |
| I think it would be lucky to get 150 place in MAL |

| Just don't ask the impossible. If it is 2 cour series definitely it will have a chance. |

| I could be mistaken but has the score been dropping for the series, i could have sworn last i checked it was in the 8.30's. Did the series end up doing something wrong? |

They rushed the crap out of some of the best parts of the entire story, but besides that, it's considered to be a good adaptation by the diehard JC Staff fans. It was at 8.33 around episode 3, by the way. I expect it to drop a few more points until episodes 11-13. |
Vladz0r said: hmm, thats a shame, the score will probably be evened out by the time the scores count but its disappointing to hear that.JizzyHitler said: I could be mistaken but has the score been dropping for the series, i could have sworn last i checked it was in the 8.30's.

I'm conflicted if i should watch this or just play the Vn or not, i hear this isnt the best adaption but iv also ehard Little busters really isnt that remarkable until the refrain part which is like 50 some hours deep in the story. |

| The heroine routes range from okay to good, and those are available at around 10-15 hours in, past the common route. The common route is pretty fun and hilarious. Some people find them to be better than Clannad's side routes (myself included) but it depends who you ask, and how engaged you get in the routes, and whether you enjoy the romantic aspects or not. Around 30-40 hours in and you'll get to the main arcs, Rin and Refrain. They tie the story together and connect all the routes, and it's pretty cool. Also, LB has the best Key bro, so fans of other Key protagonists should enjoy Kyousuke in it. But yeah, the adaptation isn't great. Little Busters s1 may not have not been as amazing as Clannad s1 to some people, but the comedy and routes would've been comparable to Clannad, and Rin and Refrain would be comparable to After Story if it was done right. |

I teand to take the better than after story thing with a grain of salt, not cause i think AS is unbeatable but its just that term gets thrown around so much it kind of loses its punch you know, but its also cause im not one for making comparisons to whats better or whats worse when trying to illustrate a certain stories quality thought admittedly i make them too here and there I'll probably go for the VN, but im not sure when just cause of the length, i have a backlog of games at the moment, but ill know to avoid the anime until playing the vn |

Sorayin said: If this gets into the top 200 I'll cut my throat. Well, I'm hyped. Please link us the stream in advance. |
| Well, if we talk about quality and story of the visual novels "Clannad" and "Little Busters!". Little busters is faaar superior than Clannad. What you've received in Clannad: After story is : emotional sadness of something you could expect What you're going to receive in Little Busters : Refrain This is why I believe that if JC Staff won't goof the 11th episode up... I can guarantee Little Busters: Refrain making it to the top 250 (and probably up to #3). But if things go wrong today... we'll probably wait for a little busters (2006) adaption (if you understand what do I mean....) |
 |
| I think it will go between top 100-200 no where top 5 after episode 11 it risen from 246 to 235 so it will risen a little not alot when this series is done |
LightBladeNova said: It makes me sad to know that still hardly anyone knows what a visual novel is, even in the anime community. |
| Did the mean score of the scores, hypothetically if the scores dont change much, then it will likley average out to a 8.27 at the least, possibly much higher, but at the current ratings theres pretty much no chance of it scratching even the top 50 |

MCAL said: well the same can be said for After Story and it's still sky high in ratingsWell, don't forget we have about 7000 viewers watching who haven't put down a vote and about 5000 who still plan to watch presumably after LB finishes airing. The biggest problem will come with the ending. There are gonna be a lot of people who don't like it I can assure you. |
| |
| From 8.24 to 8.28 after episode 11. I hope it keeps on rising. I still have hopes that it would at least be in the top 100. |
|
| Aww yeah, finally cracked top 200. There's still hope. |
| wait until it's finished for the 20% rule to take effect, and for people to actually give it a rating (most people don't before it's over) it's the kind of show you can't properly judge before it's over after all |

bobawesome said: Aww yeah, finally cracked top 200. There's still hope. Awesome! Now begins the hype for Sorayin's suicide livestream! Dis gon' be gud! |
raptor360 said: Also a high percent of LB fans(including myself) have played the VN first which is why they rate the show so highly. Except I know a ton of people who rate it lower because of how it fell short of expectations. I don't think the "VN players rating it higher" thing creates as much of a bias as the show being a 2nd season does. I mean, I know a lot of people who are more disappointed with this season than the last, but then there are a bunch of people who just ate whatever nostalgia JC Staff threw back in their faces and just went "xD! muh feels Kyousuke!!!! 10/10!" to it. |
