As likely as it is I'm going to laugh if ya'll are wrong. Generally I like to be 100% sure of something before I state it, but whatever floats your boats.

Really though should it honestly matter all that much. The content comes from the 4-Koma manga and Kadokawa regardless so the concern should lie with what strips are chosen to be animated. Not to mention that the final say on anything always goes to Kadokawa anyway as the holder of the license. The best any contracted studio can do generally is run their ideas before them and have them either approved or denied. We all know what happened last time Kadokawa decided that Kyoani wasn't doing good enough right?

How's 'bout we all wait for that issue of Comptiq so that we have more details to discuss? :)

Some scans from Canned Dogs if anyone is interested...

hmmm....well,they could have at least waited until they made a Full Metal Panic Season 3 but oh well,i love Lucky Star anyways!:rolleyes:

Hmm... whatever floats your boat.

ANN is using 2ch as a source now?:heh: Okay sure whatever then. :heh::heh::heh:

Have you even looked at the scans?

Hint: Last line of the staff section.

You mean the part that says 京都アニメーション in plain (well if you have good eyesight since it's a dark scan) sight. I can see it obviously, but that wasn't the point I was trying to make when talking about the ANN article which doesn't feature the scans. 2ch is after all the same source people had for episode 03 of Code Geass being completely rewritten which didn't come to pass and caused a huge uproar in the community anyway as a result. I'm just surprised (or am I) that ANN would use 2ch for anything after that incident.

Fair enough.

So apparently the plot is going to revolve around (as in central theme) a battle of wits between Konata and the Anime Tenchou, and it doesn't sound like the other characters are really going to factor in too much. The Anime Tenchou being a feature character gives Kadokawa the chance to really go at hawking their wares with their most popular property and through said property possibly enhance the sales of their other works and maybe pull themselves out of the red ink for the next quarter.

I don't mean to sound like too much of a downer, but this sure sounds like a pure cash in and I think at least Vexx will agree with me. Also people looking for more Kagami, Tsukasa and Miyuki; I'm not sure you should get your hopes up to much as the ad very much has Konata and Anime Tenchou in the foreground and everybody else in the background:

Considering the Anime Tenchou trying to sell Kadokawa merchandise to Konata was my absolute least favourite part of the TV Series and amounted to little more than cheap commercialism in my opinion I think my expectations for this OVA are about as low as they could possibly go right now. I'm almost speechless...... :sad:

Character placement in promos are usually pretty informative.... but there's not much else to say until we get closer to air date. ..........

Although it doesn't seem to interesting as of yet, I'm sure it will be enough to satisfy my longing for more Lucky Star.

This comes with absolutely no justification whatsoever, but my gut instinct is that this simply won't do as well as the original series. I will say that this is the best outcome I hoped for in terms of a follow-up...I believe an OVA is infinitely much better than an entire second season, which will cross the line and make people sick of the entire franchise.

I'll give a thumbs-up if this thing has any kind of storyline...but I doubt it.

Of course, I tend to jinx things to happen exactly opposite to what I expect them to.

And that's just disturbing.

After seeing the pic of Anime-Tenchou Iam pumped up for the OVA!

But at 2009 according to MoonPhase? :(

Hi All:

Not to sound a shadow party pooper, but I'm starting to have a creepy feeling that the OVA will be a somewhat different animal than the series. KyotoAnimation by now would've felt the full impact and thrill of L*S's popularity and hype and will be riding a high horse which can very easy boomerang on them if they're tempted to play up that pop aspect (and marketing potential) in the OVA by not being canon with the manga or even the games but go a new "fan service" path to the extent that they end up parodying the series. Success, like spice, can spoil the soup if applied in excess.

"Miyuki's Spaced-Out Secret", "Kanata: Totally Dead??", "Kanata's Dream", "Kanata Thawed" on ff.net
.

I wish they would animate the light novel.

aye... that's my creeping suspicion as well -- that the thing will be a blatant half-hour commercial rather than any pretense at the heart of "Raki*Suta". Omake? Fine, I guess .... but they should say so.

Hey, maybe they'll use the OVA to announce the broadcast date for Haruhi season 2! :o

lol, what like here? http://img65.imageshack.us/img65/6990/haruhi2ck4.th.jpg
konata is the new advertising medium:heh: you can market ANY series though her. as long as konata likes it, fans will follow
