If it's bad, fine, rage then. I won't be happy if they deliver a sub-par product either. But I will not write off a highly anticipated series before it's even aired one episode.
It might almost be better if its bad, though... since that means KyoAni will likely release a better version later on. It happened with Kanon and Clannad, and I don't doubt it'll happen with Little Busters as well.

But, I ask: what problem do people have with this story?
And that's just a few of the things I found wrong with it. Basically, the route was too dramatic for it's own good. It tries to play the pity card to such an extreme it was just too implausible.
Thank you Zmffkskem for taking the stand as well.

Do you mean angel beats reminds you of little busters?
Perhaps he thought of "Angel Beast" when thinking of "Little Bursters".

Usagi Drop wasn't made by J.C. Staff. But Aria, Shana, ZnT, Ookami, Index, Railgun were. And those are what you call bad adaptations.
Just because they might have been bad adaptations, doesn't mean they were bad anime. Thousands loved them, and it will be the same for Little Busters.
Don't have a clue how you thought there was a comparison there.

I agree that Haruka's route is WTF.
Haruka was full of shit.
You're now the third and fourth people to express confusion or displeasure at Haruka's route here. What exactly is 'WTF' about it? Haruka's route always seemed to be one of the most sober ones to me, with a serious story (the rejection and abuse of a child), and no magical intervention like some of the others. Futhermore, it changes Haruka from a 2-D cheerful screwball character (rather like a female Sunohara) to one whose unruly behaviour actually has cause, and casts her constant victimhood (previously a running joke) in a darker light.
I would give a less elliptical review, but that would be spoilery.
But, I ask: what problem do people have with this story?
I liked Haruka's route. First girl I finished. And it was pretty good. Fairly interesting, although personally I have to say Jun Maeda is not one who writes characters that displayed emotions showed in Haruka's route, and since I liked the direction, I liked how it was.

Direct supervision and control from Key staffs, mentioned many times in previous discussions so I guess you must be new here.
Not that it could guarantee perfect precision and quality, but at least it's better than total lose of control that happened in some adaptation.
Can't we stop the J.C staff trolling already? Good or not, let's wait until it airs. I'll prepare a lot of popcorn for when the anime airs. At that time, I should have finished the VN so I'll happy either way.
What trolling? Because this obviously easily gotten link wasn't posted yet:
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?q=&type=0&score=0&status=0&tag=&p=7&r=0&sm=0&sd=0&sy=0&em=0&ed=0&ey=0&c[0]=a&c[1]=b&c[2]=c&c[3]=f&gx=0&o=3&w=1
Top score is 8.65. By the way, it spans 9.5 pages. It drops below 7.5 in 4 pages.
KyoAni has 8s on first page, but only 2 pages, and C:~AS~ reached top position before IIRC.
If you want another producer of many works:
Studio Pierrot has GTO at 8.84, drops below 7.5 in 3 pages of total 7 pages.
Production IG has Usagi Drop at 8.69, drops below 7.5 in 4 pages of total 10 pages.
Sure, MAL isn't that great of a judge, and a simple popularity contest doesn't really show quality. But honestly I would prefer it if J.C. Staff didn't adapt LB!.
EDIT:
Defending Haruka's route:

Wasn't this already known?
Rumored, this confirms it.
Sucks that Kyoto Ani isn't doing it, but as J.C. staff showed when everyone was skeptical of their production of Toradora, they're worth putting our faith into.
Toradora had some quality drops on many episodes and the director of that was Nagai, which is why the anime was good.. Here we have a bunch of no-names on the staff. This trailer proves that they aren't fit to make LB!. They should stick with their shana clones.

Eh, I really doubt that it will be the case. If I recall correctly, the reason an anime of Little Busters took so long to come out is because Key wanted Kyoto-animation to do it, but they kept refusing. So they finally went with JC Staff after a while. Like I said, not sure if that's accurate, but if it is, I really doubt KyoAni is gonna do it later, especially since they have switched their focus from drama to comedy in recent years.
I for one, hope JC Staff does a great job, but I'm not holding my breathe. JC Staff has been really hit and miss for me, and to adapt Little Busters to an anime is a huge task, considering the enormous amount of fan anticipation, and the fact that the story, if done wrong, could ruin the entire thing before it even nears the end.
