A definite watch on my list. Although I hope someone can clarify about this 3 parts bit. As far as I know from somewhere else (and not really trustworthy), each of the part will cover different timeline in the series and will be represented in different formats. The anime will cover one timeline and from the PVs up till now, it seem it is sometime in the future.

Guess I was confused with their English translated names. But it's good that I mistook them, now I have another series to look forward to.

So in the process of familiarizing myself with the new shows for the next season, I came across this one and I have to say that it managed to grab my attention right away and after why I learned from reading the description and seeing the genre combination (Action/Mystery/Sci-Fi), the character designs and the staff in charge, I can say that it is now one of the shows I'm certain I'll be keeping a close eye on for the next season. It gives me a feeling that it could be a really good anime (the good word on the author and the source also helps boost my confidence).
Well, almost ... Quote:
Mind you, I don't know anything about the manga beside the few pictures I've seen in this thread (and that NSFW one panel) so I can't really judge it, but if the sex is shown in a ''particular'' manner that makes it seem like it belongs more to a hentai (as in p0rn) rather than an adult work (where it's shown in a mature way) then that would be a real shame for me. Well, it's generally a good rule to not base the anime on the pre-release manga adaptation(?) so I'll just hope for the best. Like I said, maybe it's not really that bad? In any case, it's pretty clear that there is going to be a sexual element in the anime going by the brief scene we were shown in the trailer, and it gave me the impression that it wasn't going to be anything of the sort that you'd find in a hentai. Risque, possibly, but for some reason I don't think that's the thing they are going for here. Since I haven't read the novel, my best guess is that as these 5 age, they will eventually get to experience first hand the wonders of hormones and there will be a minor plot thread of sexual exploration that ties up in the grander scheme of events and other threads as they discover the world past their little fake utopia. Quote:
I suppose it could mean that the show is going to be time skipping early on 2 years, spend half(?) of the remaining time on the 14-teen era and then skip on to the 26-adults era for the finale. So it's possible they could fit it all in 12-13 episode if they utilize the time and pace things efficiently. I don't know, this seriously doesn't look anything that could go on for more than 1-cour unless they dragged it on, especially when it's only one novel. Even the Beast Player Erin anime had to go into 2.25 Novels +fillers in order to fit 4 cours, so anything more than a 2 cours here seems really excessive. Also late response Quote:
Whatever the reason, I'm glad that they are still interested in making more anime like those.

I remember reading somewhere that the manga is really different from the novel and the anime will be really different from the manga. I've been very confused about it, from what I can see the manga looks like it has three main female characters but all the stuff for the anime so far only shows two. Also I think they'll probably be children for a good chunk of it because the boys have female voice actresses, of course they could add male ones later but still.

The only objection I have to the design is how they took a typical Japanese school uniform and crossed it with some '70s sci-fi designs out of Logan's Run and said, "See, it's the future!"
Given the quality of all the PVs so far, I'm surprised this thread hasn't generated as much interest as Pscyhopass and K, but I guess that's the difference ads can make -- this show laid out the plot and staff from the beginning, while the other two eked the information out slowly. |

I like the art and character designs, personally. This has the potential to be a great show, I hope it's two cours since the story spans quite a few years (Starting when the characters are 12 and ending when they're 26, from what I heard).

This series could definitely go places. My most highly anticipated series for Fall season (since I know Hidamari Sketch will be great ).
Wow, if that is true, I really do hope this series is two cours.
