So any Clue of up to What volume they are adapting?

Kuroageha · 2016-03-11, 21:48

After giving a try to the novels, I can tell with confidence that the anime will adapt the first 4 novels.

The main heroine is Emilia(white)

RDNexus · 2016-03-12, 18:25

And you think 3 episodes per volume, for this story, may be a decent pace?

moodie · 2016-03-12, 18:38

tbh as long as u dont read the source pacing isnt even an issue for me. i didnt even know 35 platoon was going in hyper drive pacing till ppl mentioned it

RDNexus · 2016-03-12, 18:40

But I usually care, and a lot, despite rarely picking a source material.

each his own. i personally would like to know whats going on with the story so if they go face paced we will get to the "good parts"

something like Grimgar or rokka are beautifully paced but sadly they dont get to the meat of the story. which leads ppl to buy the source or read them and thats good and all but not everyone got the luxury to read LNs.

so for me get 3 or 4 vols and ill be satisfied even if u cut me off with no second season.

just from pv, its alteast til vol 3?

It's always difficult to pin down the pacing of a show until after the first story arc is broadcast.
Nobody expected Heavy Object to cover only three volumes in a span of two cours, while Anti-Magic was blitzed through.

I thik it's fine if they do.

But what they did to Anti Magic was just cruel.

i have confidence IMS wont pull a silver link/MF. there worst adaption (shinmai) was a glorified hentai so the material really couldn't be adapted well.

Nozomu Itoshiki · 2016-03-12, 20:36

For these kind of series 3 vols in 12 episodes is the best option, 4 vols is already rushed but in Antimagic's case was just a non-stop butchering.

As for Hundred, well the LN itself isn't a special snowflake or anything over the average harem battle but is fun enough to keep anyone interested, the girls are nice and the MC isn't annoying but not "alpha" (at least he's not too dense or stupid, he know what is going on).

I'm kind of surprised that you couldn't notice it. Story arcs were concluding every 2 episodes. I've never seen the source material for that show and it was painful how much they were rushing it.

I agree that pacing and potential flaws are easier to see and harder to ignore if you know the source material. But there are extremes like Antimagic Academy where they go so insane in one direction that you can't avoid it. So fast that the story has no room to breath is just a waste of an anime.

Pacing is an interesting thing. I'm fine with the usual standard. 3-4 episodes per arc/volume. I can enjoy the longer ones (6+ episodes per), but it depends. I never can stand the super rush jobs though.

For this series I do think the usual is fine. 3 or 4 volumes allows for introducing a lot of characters, telling some good stories, but not going too far.

Antimagic was adapted in best way the studio could have in one cour aside from that one throwaway episode. The structure and pacing of original LN never lent it self to a 12 episode adaptation to start with. Volume 5 was the best natural stopping point which meant 2 cours would have been necessary to adapted in the best way, but AMA's production committee wasn't concerned with that.

And unfortunately being faithful doesn't reward you with sales either as Rokka no Yuusha can attest. So you have much less incentive for the members involved in anime production in general go above and beyond for any adaptations unless there is huge reader fanbase for the original work to guarantee good returns.

There is no way this is an accurate statement. In all honesty, screw a natural stopping point. Better to have a better flowing narrative that isn't rushed into oblivion than a proper stopping point. Pick any of the volumes and end it with that. Oh well the ending won't be outstanding, but the ending is just one part of the whole. The best possible way to adapt it was definitely not what they did. That show was a tire fire.

Being faithful or not guarantees nothing. A large fanbase guarantees nothing. People aren't going to buy up the BDs for a butchered adaptation no matter how much they like the source material. A faithful adaptation can be rewarded as much as anything. It depends on the content. In the end you don't have to go above and beyond, you just have to do a competent job which most definitely was nowhere to be found with AMA.
