I don't know. Despite everyone's misgivings (and Okada's trolling aside), I still feel like there's potential. I'm not going to pass on this just because I'm afraid of Okada being Okada. I don't particularly hate the anime she has worked on anyway. JC Staff is what I'm most afraid of but I'm not too worried about animation studios that aren't named XEBEC or Bee Train . |

You're right, though, that it very well might be two cours since it's a Light Novel series that has quite a bit of source material to adapt (It's at 8 volumes right now, I believe). Hell yeah, another 2013 anime confirmed. |

I wasn't trying to be rude. Sorry if I came off that way.
Even LN adaptations with eight or more novels tend to get 1-cours seasons, simply because production committees want to leave room for a possible second season. If you're going to bring up JC's previous works, well, Toradora was different because a) the staff loved the shit out of it and b) it was ending, and Index is different because there are like thirty books. |

As for the staff, well, as much as I don't want to see it happen, it's J.C. Staff again. Without Nagai, though, J.C. + Okada still doesn't quite equal Toradora... Quote:

When it comes to JC Staff: Kasai + Kuroda (the oldschool noitamina team - Honey and Clover, Nodame Cantabile) > Nagai + Okada (Toradora, Ano Hana). Kuroda + Nagai funny enough did Ano Natsu via J.C. Staff last season which was pretty good. So yeh, production staff is much more important than the studio.
However, due to Okada schizophrenic tendencies as of late (produces/adapts good stuff like Wandering Son, Ano Hana and Hanasaku Iroha, whilst equally producing travesties/lolwut series in Aquarion EVOL, Black Rock Shooter and AKB0048), she drives me bonkers. It's like flipping a coin to determine whether she's doing something "legit good" or "balls to the walls crazy". And in every single one of her latest series which I just named (bar Black Rock Shooter) involved a crossdresser. And yes, Aquarion and AKB0048 most definitely has crossdressing as well. That's why I'm scared for this series Last edited by Pocari_Sweat; 2012-06-08 at 11:46. |

(Looking at picture)
Guess it'll take me some times to get use to this Mashiro...(Her hair doesn't look this gold in the novel illustration...). But then, I can't expect Mizoguchi Keji/NtyPe art in an anime (BTW, too bad I'm not going to NatsuComi...I want his Ayase doujin, part 2, badly...)
