Disappointing PV, I dont really care for the production tidbits. I want to hear the opening and the characters talking in actual scenes.

Kagura89 · 2010-02-27, 04:24

LMAO P.A Works&Jun Maeda,that's not really a PV if the whole video focusing on production.They should learn from Seiji Mizushima&Sunrise from the Gundam 00 Movie 1st Trailer that also have little production tidbits scene but featuring interesting animation footages.

Shiroth · 2010-02-27, 07:36

Very much impressed with Maeda Jun's score in the PV, and will be the only reason i need to watch this. Looking forward to seeing what else he has in store for us all.

Leo_Otaku · 2010-02-28, 01:03

Yeah I was hoping there would be more too

it sorry if I made it seem misleading ^-^" I would love to hear a bit of the PV. I'm guessing it may be more upbeat from the sounds of the title???

Blue-kun · 2010-02-28, 12:03

Wouldn't have recognized Lia if they didn't put up her name next to the person singing.

Still, this was interesting. I thought it was pretty awesome how the production team actually went through the trouble of filming real girls playing on a stage to get that concert scene done. The animated version which pops up right after it looks brilliant!

Also, it's always cool to see Jun Maeda. After his picture showed up a few months ago he's been appearing a lot more on the media, haha. I guess people saying how COOL he looks might've helped!

why does this thread have sixteen (16) pages

also, why exactly are they in afterlife high school
is it supposed to be a comedy because literally everything of it seems ridiculously over the top

What exactly is wrong with this concept. You obviously don't seem to be familiar with Jun Maeda and his stories, otherwise you'd be looking forward to this just like any other sane person! While it might look over the top, remember that the same guy brought us little gems such as AIR, Clannad and, last but not least, Makoto's route in Kanon, which is certainly one of the most touching things I have ever read.

I think you're being extremely unfair with Jun Maeda and completely ignoring his fame for being one of the best scenario writers in the eroge industry. Give him some credit, will 'ya?

Midonin · 2010-02-28, 19:31

Actually, I'm looking forward to the series for reasons that are just as valid, but on the other end of the spectrum. Because it's an original series and because it's directed by Seiji Kishi, who's well known for an over the top, campy, flat-out ridiculous style. Then again, I'm the guy who, when shown something cheesy, would likely say, "Is it possible to make it cheesier? If so, do it."

Lots of comments about the main character looking like Harushi (must be like 4 or 5 pages lol)

Rest of the comments can be summed up by what someone said above:

Trailer looked great. Staff list is good. Interesting to see Key go away from KyoAni for this. PA Works has done good work so far

It's going to try and mix comedy and drama I think.

A video surfaced with same footage as the promo but with Maeda doing some commentary over top. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hnOS...layer_embedded

4/3. So that's the air date.

Patriot's Blade · 2010-03-04, 04:35

watched trailer...
i don't know why i'm imagining that there are already several fanboys & fangirls outhere yelling something along the lines like "she is my wife!!", "he is my husband!!" after watching it...

Natsukah · 2010-03-04, 08:06

I liked the red haired girl that was right in the middle, in the concert, singing. I presume she is Iwasawa.

momobunny · 2010-03-04, 08:24

Why does Yusa never appear in these PVs? So far she looks like she'll be my favorite, but outside of her character sketches I never see her. >__>

Chiibi · 2010-03-05, 19:58

This anime..........I think it will be awesome.

Edgewalker · 2010-03-08, 05:03

Since I never played the VN I wasn't really looking forward to this.

Then I heard Key.

Then I heard it takes place after death.

Then I heard it wont be given to Kyoani == hopefully less focus on moe and more focus on plot.

And the musical score is just awesome.

Guess I'll be watching this.

Good thing, too. VNs that don't actually exist are difficult to get your hands on.

I'm impressed at how just the collaborators have brought in so many "I guess I really should watch this"s. If it lives up to the hype, I hope it causes more things like this to come around.

Edgewalker · 2010-03-08, 17:08

lol I assumed since it was from Key it was a VN.

So...what is this then? OC ?

Because if it is OC then that's awesome. Won't have to worry about Novelf**s spoiling everything for once.

If by "OC" you mean that it is an anime first... no. There's a 4-koma and light novel already happening according to wiki. However, from what I've heard about it, it's just teaser stuff. The meat of the story seems to be planned for the anime and primary manga, which will be April and Spring, respectively (not quite simultaneous, but close?)

But, yes, it seems like the anime will be the first look into the largest portion of the plot. (What's OC in this case? I can't help but think Original Character.)
