By "joints" at this junction, martino means the other group provides translation and Formula does everything else. So none of us are rusting away in a corner.

Does this one contain all of the Crimson novels? My japanese reading skills are below abysmal http://www.amazon.co.jp/o/ASIN/47973...pf_rd_i=489986
If it does it's a shame it doesn't ship out of Japan then. The game version I'm looking for is the PC one since my PS2 died awhile ago. Last edited by Kyuusaisha; 2007-04-17 at 00:31. Reason: Grammar |

I'm not watching this, and this is reeeeeeeeaaaallly old news but apparently the original (?) director of the show, Junichi Watanabe (わたなべぢゅんいち) had passed away from cerebral haemmorage on the 25th of January at the age of 44. So maybe that has partly to do with the supposed mediocrity of the actual product? I mean when the director dies (and 44 is pretty young!) it doesn't just affect the production in the obvious ways but in other things like emotions and stuff too perhaps... and they'd have had to drag in someone new at short notice too.
If this got mentioned before in this thread (it doesn't seem to have been) then you can stab me a few times... but not everyone seems to quite know this fact :0

Saw the widescreen version on BS-i, which is better than the cropped 4:3 terrestrial version.
Here are comparative screenshots from the OP and ED which obvisouly shows the difference. Then again, the quality of the show is quite abysmal from the start, so airing a up-converted 16:9 may not necessarily be in the best interests of the studio

Basically a combination of all of those factors, most noticeable being the animation of course. I'd really suggest if you want to get into the story to play the game (or demo) and read the books, and forget about this show. If you've already done so, sorry about that, I haven't read this whole thread.

i just read through the thread and see that some peopl complaining bout the massive amounts of tsun lolis over the past few seasons. i have personally seen most of the anime and can only recall 3 and at most 4 of these tsundere loli characters out of dozens of anime series that has been released over the past 2 years. so i dont really see what the problem is. besides they are usualy very likeable

And, incidentally, I'm not ashamed to admit that, contrary to all the conventional wisdom both here and in Japan, I actually like this show. I'm not surprised because I was also one of the few who liked Kagihime, which this show sort of reminds me of in some ways. If there were any translators out there interested in translating the show, I'd be more than happy to work on the rest (whatever's needed), but given the minimal interest and abundance of other more popular shows, I'm not holding my breath either. For my part, though, I'm already planning to buy the DVDs; the characters, setting, and music just work for me, not to mention that the OP and ED are really nice. So yeah, +1 fan -- maybe the only one. |
