It could also be that they are only adapting the first four novels, which is why they only made covers for those ones.

I don't really know how to feel about Hyouka, or Kyoto Animation's agenda, anymore.
Still giving it a shot anyway because I have a decent amount of faith in it, and I mostly blame Kadokawa Shoten for things like Endless Eight considering they hold the rights. Spoiler for Spoiler:

While I didn't like Endless Eight as a whole, I liked nearly every episode of Endless Eight on each one's merits. Most were well animated and had good artwork. It presented itself well, and something would show something different aside from a change of clothing. (it rained during one loop for example)
Hyou-ka should not be like that unless they have some really weird mysteries laying around that school. Remember, KyoAni usually does adaptations well. Yes they do change things from time to time (genderswapping the incestuous twins in Full Metal Panic for instance), but they keep the spirit of the original intact.

All their shows I've seen so far have been top tier shows for me. If the source material is great, then the show should be great then. Although, so far we have been introduced to the characters and setting, but nothing on actual story really. Does anybody know what exactly is going to be about without any spoilers?

Kanon and AIR were decent, Full Metal Panic was done in a method I don't agree with (one series full comedy, one series full action, the blend was what made the series for me), but I still hold true to my love of the Haruhi series and quite enjoyed Lucky Star. Nichijou didn't do anything for me, however.

BTW. I played the game, in Japanese and English. And I loved the adaptation. However... Quote:

In general if there are any major changes in a KyoAni show, they would have ran it through with the rights holders. This includes Endless Eight. They care about the rights holder's opinion.

The light is seen at the start of every episode. And after each girl's problem is "solved", another light is added. So it's there. They just don't want to break the narrative by going outside what the characters could see.

Better the story be about the story rather than making it a "got to catch them all" game mechanic plot. There was enough there to make them seen, but not enough to force a game mechanic onto the story.
