The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, anime production in progress!
http://i.imgur.com/YckYQFpl.png (http://imgur.com/YckYQFp)
Impact (3rd) coming. Sequel-ish for Haruhi-chan. But with plot and stuff. Like if the universe from the Disappearance of Haruhi continued on without Kyon having jumped universes.
But not everything is normal in Yuki's little universe of normal.
Also, That Smile!!
HELL TO THE YEAH! I was just talking with my sister on how I had virtually zero hope of seeing more Haruhi animated and now we get this? It's not a proper sequel but at least it's something!
(btw who wants to bet that KyoAni isn't involved in this?)

Mixed feelings on this
On one hand this sounds cute, on the other hand I do want the rest of the novel verse animated.
Well at least I hope they get all the original seiyuu.

Details are scant, but starting with a special message that showed up if you visited haruhi.tv on an Android device, plans to produce a Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan anime have been revealed.
Puyo’s Haruhi spin-off manga series starts off with a less aliens, ESPers and time travelers approach to the material, as an average girl Yuki tries to save her beleaguered literature club by recruiting Kyon.

ok...so we got haruhi spin-off instead of season 3? ok at least we got a haruhi, i take it....there is no detail on the studio, but i think (hope) it will be kyoani:D, they make all the existing haruhi show after all

You know, this MAY be a sign that Kadokawa may be doing something to keep the Haruhi franchise alive. However, signs point to another studio doing a Haruhi anime, most likely.

NOT KYOANI.
Expecting Ordet since they did that Lucky Star spin-off and they're the closest one to KyoAni as you'll ever get(in the most smallest ways).
Can't wait for when the main series gets adapted by another studio and everyone loses their minds like in Little Busters.
But then,
#(*! this.

I sense a storm brewing.
I'm getting fidgety. Really hope it isn't KyoAni. That way we would have less complaints about some favorite popular franchises not being animated in a KyoAni thread. This will be the best start.

It's not just that. Even I want them to do something outside of their LN line up. The thing is, Kadokawa has an LN business and so does KyoAni. It's seemingly unlikely for them to work together all of sudden with both business vying for the same target.
If we're to expect anything external the most likely choice would be from Pony Canyon/TBS. For me it's even more logical to expect a Key adaptation than expect another Kadokawa project.
I could be proven wrong when the details are announced but I still wouldn't bet on Kadokawa x KyoAni.

hyouka and chuunibyou?
sorry for being ignorant but I don't see the current problem. Aside from I don't like much their current trend of work which is most moeblob or comedy mix in drama or whatever kyoukai kanata is. It just doesn't click me, their comedy is not funny for me anymore.
I had complaints yes, but so far. the last time I remember Kyoani doing haruhi series. I want to murder them with their eternal 8 but the movie is good....
so I really don't have a clue on why it won't be kyoani who is animating.
Aside from what I read in the new post where kyoani is also doing light novel business now.

Eh. Kyoani's LN brand is a branch of kadokawa. It is more likely for Kyoani to do it. I just want confirmation on the studio.
I get what can get. Yuki-chan is quite cute 4koma (chibi ryoko~)
Thought I don't think we get full anime. And we get 5 minute flash animations
Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan was closer to the original series animation than the chibi-huge heads style of Haruhi-chan.
Wait I am mistaking the chibi one.
This should be good then :3c
Nijicho was fine (for warped comedy) and Haruhi-chan was good for a net series. So they can still do it. It is just a matter of if they want to/if someone wants them to do it. ($$$)

Still that doesn't mean they will ruin it if the anime was handed to them. Apart from Kyokai no Kanata, which isn't exactly slice of life, I can't recall any novel based anime done by Kyoani that can be regarded as 'bad' (Hyoka didn't perform well in terms of sales, though).
Anyway, pretty sure Kyoani won't be handling this spin-off.
*snip*
Ever since Hyouka, KyoAni has only adapted properties that they already own. They aren't doing contract work for other publishers like Kadokawa anymore.

Some guys from kadokawa sneaker bunko formed kyoto animation esma bunko together with the guys from kyoani. My bad, I wouldn't call it branch but a refugee camp from guys that aren't happy in kadokawa and guys at kyoani who want their own label joined forces.
Win-win situation actually. :D

For the puzzled and curious - I merged the posts from thread of the same subject originally posted in the "Upcoming Series" subforum with this one, and for now left the thread there with a single post redirecting folks here and locked. I will keep it there for a little bit yet until folks get used to casting their gaze in here instead. ^^
And may as well add my two cents that I am curious about the new series too. Nagato was always my fave chara of the franchise. :)
I hope Minorin reprise her role in this series.

I'm glad to see this get animated. More Haruhi-related anime is always a good thing, and Yuki is very moe in the manga of this.
Maybe J.C Staff will take this up? (Although KyoAni doing this would be fantastic).
ultimatemegax
2013-12-18, 14:59
Recent studios that Kadokawa have worked with include Ordet (possible due to the Yamamoto connection), asread (possible due to the producer Ito connection), Xebex, AIC Classic, and diomedia. One of those is likely to be the studio to animate this.
Maybe J.C Staff will take this up? (Although KyoAni doing this would be fantastic).
You have a death wish to actually propose J.C.Staff for this after the whole Little Busters reaction? I have to admit that I admire your guts :heh:
I'm personally hoping that they hand this one over to Ordet with a big fat check to cover animation. If they go for Xebec or Asread it may be ok but I wouldn't put much hopes on it. AIC... maybe, no idea. Anyway it won't be another disappearance in regards to quality that's for sure.

J.C Staff has done some of my Top 10 of anime(Haruhi will always be number 1) like Toradora, Shana, A Certain Magical Index/A Certain Scientific Railgun.
And I like the Little Busters anime. Refrain is certainly better than the 1st season, and Refrain has some of the best episodes of the Fall season.

While it's no Haruhi season 3, it's great to see that the franchise is not dead.
*Campaigns for Haruhi Season 3 in 2015*
It would be a good feeler to see how much desire there is for more Haruhi.
Despite being a Yuki centric spin-off, doesn't Haruhi manage to come in and take the spot light again anyway? :heh:
Not discounting the possibilities of other studios or anything, but if it's not a proper tv season then I can see KyoAni fitting this in like what they did with the Haruhi-chan and Nyoro~n shorts before. Although I don't really know what their pipeline looks like for the immediate to near future, so maybe they could fit it in as a proper tv series afterall?
I also don't care what trend their productions have been on as of late. Even before they started producing into their own LNs, their trend then sure wasn't indicative of it. Plus, it's not like breaking a trend will kill them or anything :heh:
I'm happy that the haruhi franchise it's not dead and I´m really exited with this new haruhi project maybe we could get the 3 season of haruhi. I don't mind who animates it as long as they make it great and with the same cast of seiyu.
This is going to be full chibi or the characters will be more normal? :confused:

Maybe the format of the show could open some window somewhere thinking in the factibility of Kyoani doing this.
I mean, I'm not one skilled in the art but still could say that short chapters mean less budget/productivity load compared to a traditional series. (?)
If Kyoani is busy, as always busy lately, can that be a chance?
The other thing -and speculating yet-- I could be wrong but the promotional image of Nagato was put aside from the latest promotions Kyoani.

docomo has partnered with Kadokawa to provide content for their site. Kadokawa controls the distribution rights for all things Haruhi. KyoAni is not involved in the slightest at this point besides okaying decisions (perhaps) and getting slight amounts for being part of the production committee. The reason Nagato is beside the web shorts is because those shorts are now streaming on docomo's anime store.
Nothing thus far has any indication that Kyoto Animation nor any other studio in particular is involved in the production of this anime series.

In other words, Kadokawa could use any material provided by them and subsequently produced by Kyoani to their own convenience without asking anybody? (Rhetorical question)
Hoo, interesting.
On other news they also announces The Jump Of Mikuru Asahina anime
It interesting that they annouced it at same date when haruhi disappeared
I read that "Haruhi-chan & Churuya-san are also being distributed!" But what this mean? They're will gain an anime too?
The had anime four years ago. So Maybe it is just a selling point.

I have to say that I'm pretty shocked that we're getting more Haruhi anime, even if it is an adaptation of a manga spinoff.
I've actually read some of this manga, and I thought it was pretty good. It's a bit more lighthearted than the LNs are, in my view, but it's cute and sometimes interesting.
I think that Kadokawa probably views this as a test as to whether or not Haruhi anime fans are willing to buy into a non-KyoAni Haruhi anime. I think they'd like to determine that before pushing further into the LNs themselves.
So I'm certainly hoping this sells well, since I think that getting more of the LNs adapted into anime is probably dependent on it.
Source? Example?

Since this is apparently the only one source for that, it's likely that the entire announcement about Mikuru spin-off is a hoax or misunderstanding.
Update: Upon closer inspection it's clear that whole thing is based on a simple post on 2ch without any specific source or information, thus it's definitely hoax.
is this connected to the main story?
No, it's rather completely alternative setting, set in a world that is similar to Shoushitsu world, but there are no supernatural elements and original world never existed (or at least it seems from the current chapters).
Always needs more Yuki. I'd really love to see more of that Yuki and the manga is adorable.

Well, today the official Nagato Yuki-chan twitter has returned to life.
"This morning I was awakened by Asakura-san" It was the first tweet in two and half years
https://twitter.com/nagato_chan/status/493717307303014400/photo/1
At the same time the subsequent tweet seems to be advertising the third book of the "There is No Haruhi in My Classroom" series which is being released on the first of August.
This is clearly a logical move if the anime is right behind the door. I think this month with the end of the Haruhi Hunting campaign (http://haruhi.com/) and the Pachinko machine installation over Japan, we will know something more about the spin-off.
Also there is a CM used to promote the BD-Box deluxe, in which there is a deep message.
""あれから もう８年になるんですね。 ずいぶんと月日が経ちました。 元気にやってるかな。 大丈夫。心配ない "
"It's been 8 years since then. A lot of time have passed. I wonder if you're doing fine. It's all right. Don't worry"

Not sure if I can convince myself to watch a Haruhi series that's not animated by Kyoani, which is almost assuredly going to happen.
Well, there is still a chance for them doing this. Don't forget that KyoAni has no announced series for next year. They are pretty much free.

she basically just laugh that someone create very obvious fake.
Oh, thanks.
I can imagine KyoAni still doing this project, but with several years of animation changes/evolution in their staff. It has been, what, five years since the last Haruhi anime project outside games.
I would hope this starts in Winter to match the start of the series around the time of the regular Disappearance of Haruhi story.

Anyhow, I should pick up the manga.
Simply put, Yuki-chan manga is Haruhi series without supernatural elements (or at least it seems) and with a little simplified original characters in ordinary/extraordinary slice of life. If you like the characters and you are a fan of emotional Yuki, you will definitely like it. If you like supernatural elements in the original series you probably won't like it so much, but still there is chance you're going to have fun with all references or parodic scenes on original series.

I wonder if the original voice actors will take up their old roles? Even if it's an alternate universe, I'll never be able to watch this properly unless I hear no one else but Hirano, Sugita, Chihara, Ono, and Goto in the lead roles. Art change I can take, but not the voices xD

You mean the same studio behind Nobunaga the Fool and Aquarion EVOL? :p
Granted, Kawamori isn't involved in this. And we all knew Kyoani probably wouldn't come back for this one.
I'm not terribly displeased by the choice (I could name a few I dreaded, like AIC) but Satelight's quality swings wildly based on the budget they're given. Just look at Vanadis, ugh. And honestly, I doubt this is going to get a substantial Kadokawa payout.
Agreed about Satellite quality swinging wildly based on budget, but when they are on their stuff looks really nice, at least for me.
Hopefully this will be one of those times.
Still no announce date for airing though, eh?
Animation quality and art consistency have nothing to do with "budget" but rather project management.
(Man, Shirobako is even currently airing, too. :heh:)
That said there's almost no way this is going to look as good as a KyoAni production would, but I don't think anyone was really expecting them to be animating this in the first place.

On the contrary, I'm pretty sure the production budget governs a heck of a lot of what we see. Otherwise why the difference between Sword Art Online and Oreshura, if we take A1 as an example? Someone's gotta get paid to draw those key frames and in-betweens. And I'm just generalising; you need money at every step of the creative process. Shirobako is a rare look at the inner workings of the industry, but it's hardly representative of the factors that goes into production.
I'd give you consistency, but let's be honest; Satelight's got a bad rep for that too. :p

If it's just one-cour, I think Nagato will be able to do a fantastic job (one might say bias much, but for me, she's my favourite of the characters). Things could get more interesting if it's two-cour, but we'll have to wait and see.

If it does in fact air in the coming Spring season, though, it would become my most anticipated series of that season...of course, things are still early and all that. ^^
Plus Nagato is one of my fave charas in anime history, so it is a double plus. Am looking forward to seeing the VA "show her chops" so to speak....

Truth be told, I prefer the Kyon without the snark. He fits in with this universe more in that regard, but that's just me speaking.
His snark is best directed at Haruhi.
However if I recall, Yuki is the main viewpoint character for this series, rather than Kyon. So I would imagine we would get less of Kyon's internal thoughts (and thus his snark).
With Haruhi having long hair in this universe, and a slightly different character design...and it being 2015....I am certain she's going to get a bunch of Kantai Colle's Kongo styling crossovers. (Imagines Aya Hirano shouting "Burning Love!")

Uh. :heh: Aya Hirano isn't there because her character isn't in that episode. Same with Daisuke Ono's Koizumi.
It's almost as if there's a reason why those two characters wouldn't be in the first episode of this show... almost as though that reason would be obvious to any Haruhi fan worth his salt...

"The guys who liked KyoAni's LN adaptation" already quite readily embraced the more cartoonish character designs of Haruhi-chan and Churuya-san. I don't think the Disappearance of Nagato designs--being much more similar to the original--are going to be a problem. The largest difference from the original is definitely in tone. No mysterious happenings, no hidden mysteries, no powers. Straight up slice-of-life with a cute little bookworm.

Mostly.
Haruhi and Yuki's universes make have cracks from time to time. A little slip here, and hint or two there. Things are and are not as they seem. But it is still down to Kyon's choice. This Kyon stayed. Retroactively keeping the Yuki programmed universe as its new default, so this Kyon is now the Kyon that was always here...and not the Kyon that was Haruhi's goffer. But...sometimes things still happen. It is the way of things. The way of Haruhi.
But all for Nagato Yuki. All else does not matter.

This is exactly what I am looking forwards to: the total absence of supernatural events and mystery is much welcomed. Ever since Kyon was presented with the choice during the movie, I always longed to see what kind of a world would await him had he decided to make the opposite choice, and it turns out that such a world isn't so bad.

Tsuruya-san vs Ryouko Asakura will be amazing (and funny).
Also a long haired and sort of contained Haruhi will be amusing (yet she will still find time, with Tsuruya-san's help, to torment Mikuru, while Asakura focuses on Nagato.)

I was more understanding once knowing the character designer had also worked on Haruhi-chan. But now looking at this trailer, I dun know, I can feel the work behind but this is not what I had hoped to see. :eyespin:

The colours seem a little off to me, but that could be a consequence of the lower video quality. I get that this is a romance comedy, but the music doesn't quite seem to fit, either...looks like I'll have to wait a little longer to see how this turns out.
So this is what a real spin-off is like. The art direction, the tone, and feel is what makes this show so different from the main series. I hope I like this show, if not at least I have Fate to look forward this spring season.

Regardless of the Universe, Haruhi is still Haruhi. Kyon seems far less cynical and snarky though.

Kyon: This is the story of Yuki Nagato, a normal and slightly shy girl. Original Creator: Nagaru Tanigawa. Original Illustrations: Noizi Ito. Manga Art: Puyo. Serialized manga, The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan. The world that Yuki Nagato changed and the fairly normal everyday life that happens there. Everything that happens there occurs with Yuki Nagato at the center. Will Yuki Nagato be able to convey her hidden feelings...? The spinoff work of the Haruhi Suzumiya series is finally being adapted into an anime after a few years of waiting.

This is what I hope to hear in the series' background music. It always felt more natural to have classical pieces accompany this universe, even if things are more light hearted. The animated character designs have also grown on me.

Overlaying everything with classical music doesn't actually work like that, you know?
It helps, but this latest trailer still doesn't feel anything like a Haruhi show to me; the difference to me is like the complete 180 from Soul Eater to Soul Eater Not. :heh:
It's that I can't enjoy a spinoff as a inconsequential watch; I just find it weird to shoehorn Disappearance into this.

Though I'd rather watch an animated rendition of (man, I've forgotten the novel titles in order, it's been so long) post-Disappearance to Surprise, this... this unexpectedly makes me happy. Especially at the thought that they're still willing to animate a Haruhi even if it's just a spin-off. It gives me hope knowing that once new source material has been released for the main story, there's still a big chance that we'll also get an animated version for it. And that's something we've been waiting for for years now.
That being said, I'm excited to watch this new spin-off anime. I'm feeling all nostalgic because of this! I have a feeling I'll enjoy it regardless of it just being a spin-off set in an alternate dimension.
I wonder though, is the Kyon here the same Kyon from the Disappearance movie, who instead of choosing to return, stayed? Does that mean he knows that that universe is just an alternate universe, and that there is a universe that exists where aliens, espers, time travelers do exist, and that he came from there? Or is this story set simply in a reality where there are no aliens, etc. in the first place and the Kyon in there knows nothing about alternate realities and the like? I've only done a bit research so I won't be spoiled when I watched it, but this is something I'd like to know beforehand.

More or less that second option. Basically so far there is no indication that some "original universe" ever existed, all characters are normal people and supernatural events from original series have usually have some realistic counterpart.(for example during Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody, Kyon here meet and help Haruhi as young boy, there is no time traveling)
That PV was just awesome, it made the anime look much more better.
Basically this is the Kyon that would have been in this universe had it started that way. Either he is originally from there...or it events are still as they were, Kyon deciding to stay resulted in a final rewrite that makes him forget and his background becomes as if he was normal, Yuki's program rewriting everything this time around.
But, are their glitches in the program? How about it Nagato?
ukulelembo
2015-03-26, 03:24
....
This really doesn't seem like the case. Because in original series there was one other thing (beside Kyon) that was not affected by Yuki's program.
Sky Canopy Dominion. And thus also Kuyou should be normal, simply because Yuki has no authority over her. However in Yuki-chan's universe Kuyou is normal girl as well (even wears glasses and is shy like Yuki) and there is no sign that Sky Canopy Dominion has ever existed. Unless is Yuki in this world somehow much more OP is more likely that this is truly separate normal world, that has no connection to original world from main series.

It's a completely separate universe that was born as a spin-off to the movie. The different art styles and animation are because Satelight, rather than KyoAni, is taking the reins, and as well, I'm totally excited :)

So something like the gender-bendered verson of Haruhi? But instead of Kyonko, we have Nagato as main heroine?
For all of the crappy things comes out of KyoAni, they were still top class in production quality. So still unsure about the studio change
