They seem to be messing with the chronology a bit, so I guess they will finish the anime at the end of volume 3, but include captures from later volumes (speaking form memory here)

Not quite, the chronology of the capture is correct.

Ayumi -> Mio -> Kanon -> Shiori -> Kusunoki -> Chihiro -> Jun -> Tsukiyo

The only thing chronologically incorrect was how they put Hakua after Tsukiyo. Probably this was to show all the capture targets first.

I'm still going to wait for the final product in October to come to a verdict. Hopefully, the prologue OVA will show some improvements in the character design.

Also, looks like I'll be the first (in here) to call the books "[V]incent Law" and "Bushido" at Shiori kiss scene!!! Nitobe Inazo, Ergo Proxy and studio reference FOR THE LOL!

[karuroso]

hey... I thought Hakua had purple hair...not blue õ.õ

[Arabesque]

No, her hair is blue, but her purple is the most prominent colour on her (especially her Hagoromo).

Ah okay, thanks. For some reason I thought that Jun and Tsukiyo came much later than that, but I guess my mind is just not recalling things correctly. Still, this change should work out, considering Hakua event works better as a season finisher (more closer)

I can see the ending before the beginning! Heh Hakua + Elsee shipping anybody?

[solomon]

ok hiro shimono works as Keima. That was the only thing I was worried about. Elsee sounds JUST like I imagined her.

There's also 480p, if that helps... (Not really)

That wouldn't be bad... But it'd be hard since they are both hopelessly smitten by Keima in the canon... Well, guess he has to die.

[pampz21]

I was kinda worried about the char design of the girl but its look so-so so its ok....Hiro is agreat voice for Kiema but not epic as I see on Jun but its still ok cuz he makes me think that Keima is bored out of reality

Though i think he still need alot to catch up to the real god-level male lead like JoJo and Dio. Those two are on an entirely different level...

[NecocYaotl]

I don't find kaminomi and hayate being similar, but Wakaki and Hata actually pretty close, like spent golden week together and recently ate mille-feuille together (source from blog and twitter).
In his blog, he said Sora (from Crayon -Sora no Art-) will also appear in the anime, so I think with the heroines from Ayumi to Tsukiyo + interval story it will be impossible to fit it in only 1 cour.

[tsunade666]

sora? who's that?

if they also plan the interval story which I think is needed because it moves the story forward. Having a 1 cour is nearly impossible unless they cramped and messed it all up.

[NecocYaotl]

Asuka Sora, heroine of a PFP game made by Atelier Lilith, Crayon -Sora no Art-
The bugged game where Keima had to choose all the options to find a path where the game can progress.

Let's just say, he easily makes it into my top 05 male characters of all time, for the obvious reasons.

That's pretty interesting to hear. It's pretty easy to add original material into this series, so it shouldn't feel that forced overall.

Also this series is going to be quite the advertisement for the PSP.

Asuka Sora is a fictional character... from a fictional game ... made by a fictional company... in the manga.

Yeah i know. Your point being?

Sony's going to need it... With the lack of major titles on the PSP and December nearing...

[tsunade666]

if it makes into a game. I can only think up of a visual novel type and I hate to see it in other manner. His a master of gal game and it's need to be gal game too

[kniteowl]

So they're gonna animate about 46 chapters from the manga.

Since the 1st chapter is usually long, that probably takes u[ one epeisode if not most of it.

I'm gonna make an estimate, so about maybe 3 chapters per episode 45/3 = 15

Hmm about 3 episodes longer then 13, maybe they'll shorten some stuff and maybe cut out those filler chapters and chapters relating to Hakua if she's the arc that concludes the season.

Still looking forward to it... I really need to remember the Japanese title, I was looking for the english title all this time lmao.

IF they do go for the full 24/26, It might be better

Could you show any link from where she's with blue hair? All the official arts until now showed purple hair i think...particulary i don't mind changes like that, for example like in Nurarihyon no Mago where the author made one color for Tsurara ( brown i think) and then the studio added a bit of blue and the author apparently changed to the same of the anime.
However in this case i think that tone of blue for her isn't any good >_>

The pacing in each arc is quite different, so i wouldn't be surprised if certain arcs end up lasting more episodes then others.

Looks like they're changing it for the anime... In pretty much all of the in-manga color pages (or at least in chapters 86 and 94) she has purple hair (in contrast to her sky blue hagoromo). She had blue hair on a recent Shonen Sunday cover (with a purple hagoromo just like Elsee's), but I remember remarking that the hair color was wrong then, as well...

I agree that that blue doesn't really look as good as the darker purple, but if that's all we have to worry about, I'll take it. Honestly, I didn't even notice it until it was pointed out (and now I can't not see it)... Just be glad this isn't like Negima, where every female character has weird colored hair. I don't think they've ever gotten the various anime colors to completely match the manga...
