Well, having looked into some of the source material, I was actually a bit disappointed...
The PV was interesting, but the actual plot didn't seem like much. Spoiler for Manga Vol 1/ (vague) First impressions:
Could someone who has read beyond that let me know if it picks up? I'd really like to hear people's thoughts on if this is worth sticking with =) I'll definitely still give the anime a spin when it eventually gets released in any case though.

Tyvm Guess I'll give it another try.
Btw... considering the manga ends this month, the adaption could in theory cover all the source material, right? That would be brilliant, considering how many anime don't and just slap on original endings.

Possible, but not likely. The anime adaptation would have had to start production at least a year ago. In which case the manga wouldn't have been close to finishing yet. Of course the mangaka may have already known he was getting close to ending it and where he wanted things to go and discussed that with the scriptwriter and director.

Conversely! It's nearly certain. You probably don't know that classical production of anime is carried out continuously until the actual premiere. And even after that, before the release on BD/DVD. Is more than likely that the last few episodes is still in full production at this moment and they still have more than enough time to prepare them before their premiere in early April (in the case of 12 episodes) or later (in the case of more episodes). Not to mention that they could discuss about ending with the author some time ago as you say.

Don't think, look at previous cases where the manga was just completed during the production of anime. Probably the best known case is Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. There was only a month between release of the last chapter of manga and the last episode of anime. And there are other similar cases. It's not unusual. Everything is just about how much was author or publisher of original manga involved in production of anime. And since Earth Star Entertainment is apparently one of the major producers of anime, everything is clear.

It seems there will be a pre-airing event on December 21, 2013. Theres will be 2 session, each session seems to be 1 hour and 30 minutes long. The event will be a talk show and a screening of uncensored version of episode 1-8.
Based on that news, I guess this series is probably a short and the TV airing will be censored (not sure about the Nico Nico one). I wonder how long this series is going to be. Usually only 1 or 2 episodes are shown at pre-airing event, yet they're going to show 8 episodes at once this time. Last edited by melina_putri; 2013-12-05 at 09:41. |
