In that case, Chihiro didn't even appear in the first tale at all. Mizuki at least got a quite a bit of screen time, just Shuichi didn't come into play. I'm pretty sure the anime will cover both the first tale and latter tale, and from the prologue, it seems...

From the OP sequence, I'm guessing that the anime is going to cover the first tale plus one story from the latter tale (leaving out Mizuki and, for the most part, Yuuko). I don't expect this season to cover everything... especially since AFAIK, the latter tale still doesn't have a release date...

If minori manages to release the latter tale just before the anime finishes airing, this timing might work. On the whole, it would be rather presumptuous for Geneon/Shaft/minori to expect a second season (bold as the marketing campaign might be......). |

Rather than expecting a second season, I was thinking of it as being more like an option ("if it's successful, we'll make more"). After all, they have no obligation to animate the whole game to satisfy viewers. Plenty of anime adapted from ongoing works--whether based on manga or novels or whatever else--end prematurely, with no continuation in sight. Obviously that wouldn't be ideal, but I think it's a distinct possibility. Has any kind of ep. count been announced yet? |

12 episodes.
And yeah, I think the idea of having the anime adaptation now would be to release "the latter tale" right near the end of the year, and tell people to buy the game so they can see the stories not covered in the anime. As GipFace said, the entire ef story is already written at this point, so there isn't a problem in that regard. Including just one of the "latter tale" stories serves as a promo without spoiling all of the game's content. I think it's a pretty solid marketing strategy, actually. |

Let me guess the 2 which you have seen.... is it KGNE and School days? Makes me wonder what the other one you are talking about is... Anyway this anime looks very promising..... the prologue is awesome can't wait for some serious drama.

That said, you can probably make a pretty good guess about her background and what she is from the game OP though |

No soundtrack has been released yet. So far there're only a game's theme song single and 3 drama CDs. The BGMs of the game are extremely enjoyable, and seeing that now there's an anime adaptation, I believe either a game or anime soundtrack is bounded to appear sometime.

How many channels in Japan is this anime airing on ? 5 ?
Coz in the schedule section of the official website, http://www.ef-memo.com/, they've got 5 dates and my guess is that it premiers on the 6th of Oct on 2 channels, on the 8th of Oct on one channel and then finally on the 9th of Oct on 2 channels. |
