Harada has this habit of drawing big-ass pointy fingers just like in yugi-oh.... and its showing in these designs...is Buriki ok with this???

omimon · 2012-11-06, 10:31

Dude...I JUST realized why the character designs looked so familiar. The novel artist is "Hidari" aka the novel artist for "Usotsuki Mii-kun to Kowareta Maa-chan" aka the story that shares the same writer and universe as Denpa onna!

Could this be foreshadowing for season 2 of Denpa onna!?

DorkingtonPugsly · 2012-11-08, 14:42

Although the artist might be the same, it's not of the same universe, and Denpa Onna's illustrator's buriki so there's very little connection between these two. But I'm seriously up for more Denpa Onna, by this coming spring it'll have been 2 years since it aired. There's still a chance. I hope this turns out like Denpa onna too. I want it to have the same strange and relaxing appeal/atmosphere that attracted me to Denpa Onna. I think Shaft does well in adapting weird slice of life so I'm hoping...

Whoops. Sorry for the mix. I meant Hidari in my post above.

So I've been reading a couple chapters of the manga and I'm starting to think this story isn't anything what I expected it to be.....

In the good way or bad way?

Lovely.

Website updated with colored setting :

Those character designs are lovely. And yes, the English plot summary is very, very misleading.

MisaoFan · 2012-11-20, 03:41

The visuals are very enticing and neat to me. The plot isn't something I would expect, so it might be a surprise hit of the next season.

EDIT : The opening theme will be "Alteration" by ZAQ.

If you ask me the LN and the manga are a borefest. Even with knowledge of Japanese folks and myths, I found myself yawning a lot of times while reading (LN) even after the latest volume. This and IS are one of the two light novels that made me feel that way. Thankfully the IS anime is a success. The manga doesn't help at all. I feel that its one of the weakest this season if they'll cover just half of the story (just before Jo shows up). Its up to the director and his visualization if this series wants to win me back.

I'm not familiar with either the light novel or the manga so I find myself wondering how much this series incorporates Japanese folktales and myths? I didn't know such subject matter was related to the series as all. I obviously missed that, haha.

According to the website, the first episode should run on Jan 10th, and in that, I guess we can tell that the series will be 12 episodes long.

Those screencaps look magnificient and capture the LN's atmosphere perfectly. Can't wait to try it next month !

kyouray · 2012-12-05, 13:52

Gorgeous screenshots. I hope Shaft hired an army of talented colorists to keep this quality for the whole series

sirn · 2012-12-07, 02:09

New PV is up at official website with voice and some actual animation. (Region restriction?)

Pretty interesting, the voices are not quite what I expected. Artstyle has an oldschool feel as well, I look forward to the full experience.

This looks wonderful. My hikkikomori little sister can't be this cute!

Top notch voice cast too.

Mister Gates!!!! Sorry, I'll always think of that guy when I hear Hochû Otsuka.
