These days have been the Otomate Party 2012 with seiyuus participating and news about otome games made by Idea Factory/Otomate.

On Sunday it was announced that Amnesia is going to get anime next year!

GENRE: Suspense / Mystery / Horror / Romance

Quote:

The game begins on the morning of August 1, when the protagonist wakes up and discovers she has absolutely no memories of the past. A boy appears before her, and he introduces himself as a "spirit" named Orion. The protagonist struggles to regain her memories under the guidance of Orion. She then gets a phone call, but she does not recognize the name on her mobile phone screen. She meets her apparent "boyfriend," despite not knowing his face.

Idea Factory released the original game on the PSP system in 2011.

I'm surprised but at the same time not surprised about the news due to the popularity of the game

Seiyuus from the original game:

Quote:

Orion- Igarashi Hirom
Shin- Kakihara Tetsuya
Ikki- Taniyama Kishou
Kent- Ishida Akira
Toma- Hino Satoshi
Ukyo- Miyata Kouki
Sawa- Moriya Satomi
Mine- Akutsu Kana
Rika- Yoshida Seiko
Waka- Takahashi Hidenori

Sorry for those who thought of the horror PC game Amnesia the Dark Descent

Yay! I am very interested in this. I've seen a lot of Amnesia artwork and I found the designs interesting, so I'm looking forward to this. I hope the anime designs do it justice. The story doesn't sound too bad either, imo.

Leo_Otaku · 2012-08-05, 11:34

Looking forward to this

I really like the plot idea and the designs very much

mistress_kisara · 2012-08-05, 12:06

Excited for this! Tons of shoujo-bait shows coming out one after the other. Now they're acknowledging that female otakus do exist

OPN · 2012-08-05, 15:20

Im probably going to wait until a studio is announced before making decisions if i should see this or not but the premise sounds decent and the designs are good.

Tempester · 2012-08-05, 16:45

So it's not Amnesia: The Dark Descent? Aw...

DragoonKain3 · 2012-08-05, 22:02

My first impression was "WTF, Japanese actually had interest in Dark Descent?" as well.

MrTerrorist · 2012-08-05, 22:28

Ah man! I thought it was a horror anime but it's just a shoujo anime.

Sugarless Ocean · 2012-08-06, 17:35

Damn, I thought it was Amnesia Dark Descent anime too. That would've been awesome!

Well, this anime seems interesting anyway. I just hope there's more to it than a girl and her reverse harem though.

Lightning_Wing · 2012-08-06, 18:33

Looks quite a bit like Code Geass to me...

yes! AMNESIA!

even though I just read the summaries, I fell in love with the theme... I wonder how they'll handle *it*?? (not spoiling it

)

White Manju Bun · 2012-08-07, 17:27

Interested based off the design, the genre and that fact that Ishida Akira is a voice

RainbowMagnet · 2012-09-19, 10:38

Holy shit brains base is doing it and not DEEN or jc staff? Definitely going too give it a try. Also guessing this is a winter anime.

Kismet-chan · 2012-09-19, 12:52

Very happy with the studio that's doing it, and the key visual looks lovely. *excited*

Nachtwandler · 2012-09-19, 13:07

After Arcana Famiglia I promised myself not to watch Otome VN adaptations anymore. But... I'll wait for opinions about this than t airs

mistress_kisara · 2012-09-19, 16:11

Yes it's not studio deen hooray!

FlareKnight · 2012-09-19, 21:50

Yeah, I'll completely admit I clicked thinking "holy crap they are giving Amnesia: The Dark Descent an anime

?" But suppose this will be ok too.
