Another - Novel Discussion
Seeing as how it's getting animated, I might as well make a thread for the novels....
Another is a school horror story by Ayatsuji Yukito and published by Kadokawa Bunko. Story spans two volumes. Novel site: http://www.another-anime.jp/goods/#booksInfo Synopsis: Spoiler:
Finished the first volume and it's really good so far. The kind that keeps you turning the pages to find out what happens next. |
it has 2 volumes? i've read around and all said it was a single volume novel
|
It has 2 volumes. i want to know the ending though. I looked at the manga last chapters but i don't understand Japanese so I have no idea what the whole deal is. I wish someone could explain me the whole deal.

I'd also would like to know how it ends. Read the summary on wikipedia but it doesn't cover the whole thing. A kind soul that has read the book would be appreciated.

|
Most definitely. It's not very long.

IMO it's best to avoid any kind of spoiler in this series. It is not only a school horror mystery story. It is also a kind of detective fiction. The story gives you various hints from the very beginning. Revealing the ending will ruin the entire story. |
Just wondering BTW, how many chapters does the manga have?
Yep...Spoilers here are really SPOILERS. |
The manga is already finished. I believe there's around 18 chapters for the whole manga.
|
20 chapters in total for main series.
There is a new "Another 0" that tells story from 15 years ago. |
Started reding the manga. So basically this has some supernatural stuff but is for the most part a horror thriller with some detective themes?
Just hope it doesn't end with a Deus ex Machina thing that throws everything in disarray. |
so i just finish the manga.
Spoiler:
was it better address in the LN? |
From what little I've seen of the manga, it's basically the novels condensed with certain details left out.
The novels actually furnish you with enough detail to make speculation fun. |

I haven't read the manga yet, but seems like its approach of ending the story is a bit different from the novel. Maybe the plot in the manga has been adjusted accordingly because of the spin-off manga. I can't say I am happy with the ending in the novel though, so I am interested in how the anime will handle it. |
spoliers pleeeeeaaaaaasssssseeeeeeee.. hahaha!

And can I ask which part of the ending exactly you disliked? I found it to be the best part of the novel (for me). Do I actually need to put information about the novel in spoilers?! Well...I better do. Spoiler for novel ending:
