Another - Novel Discussion
Seeing as how it's getting animated, I might as well make a thread for the novels....
Another is a school horror story by Ayatsuji Yukito and published by Kadokawa Bunko. Story spans two volumes. Novel site: http://www.another-anime.jp/goods/#booksInfo Synopsis: Spoiler:
Finished the first volume and it's really good so far. The kind that keeps you turning the pages to find out what happens next.

It has 2 volumes. i want to know the ending though. I looked at the manga last chapters but i don't understand Japanese so I have no idea what the whole deal is. I wish someone could explain me the whole deal.

IMO it's best to avoid any kind of spoiler in this series. It is not only a school horror mystery story. It is also a kind of detective fiction. The story gives you various hints from the very beginning. Revealing the ending will ruin the entire story. |

Started reding the manga. So basically this has some supernatural stuff but is for the most part a horror thriller with some detective themes?
Just hope it doesn't end with a Deus ex Machina thing that throws everything in disarray.

I haven't read the manga yet, but seems like its approach of ending the story is a bit different from the novel. Maybe the plot in the manga has been adjusted accordingly because of the spin-off manga. I can't say I am happy with the ending in the novel though, so I am interested in how the anime will handle it.

And can I ask which part of the ending exactly you disliked? I found it to be the best part of the novel (for me). Do I actually need to put information about the novel in spoilers?! Well...I better do. Spoiler for novel ending:
I'm writing a summary for the novel right now, but due to sickness it's tacking longer than I initially planned. |
