Just finished reading the first 6 chapters, has some promise and had a few funny moments, definitely watching this and following the manga in the mean time. Arun seems interesting and Tena hasn't managed to rub me the wrong way yet, the music studios have provided some good laughs every times they showed up towards the end lol.
Looking at the staff it should be a good adaption, Sunrise are generally a good studio and are good at adaptions (KuroKami aside), Yoko Kanno being on board should provide some really nice music throughout, expecting to hear piano pieces a lot... The two scriptwriters worked together on K-ON! HANADA recently did series composition for Regios and Sora Kake Girl and YOSHIDA is doing Umi Monogatari this summer and worked on the ARIA shows. With the source material being sound my only worry is that in the directors chair is the guy who directed KuroKami |

Then I would also recommend manga that come from these magazines: Manga 4-koma Kings Palette and Manga 4-koma Kings Palette Lite, they should be like the kirara magazines in content (bishoujo/moe).

I like the lead, but right now I dislike Tena and found her really annoying.
The lead's a poor guy who's smart enough for getting a scholarship, graduates and finally opening his own little private music school. He likes musics so much he gave ridiculous amount of discounts for students who're also passionate about them eventhough he knew it'll eventually hurt him financially in the long run. The guy is really living an honest life. Suddenly this loli brat appeared out of no where claiming him as her pet because of his special tone, made him her servant, treated him like crap, accused being a pedo, nearly got him killed most of the time, finally made him financially bankrupt threatening all his hard work until now. What's worse the girl didn't even show even the slightest amount of grattitude. Well the lead is really a big hearted kind of guy and personality wise better than Saito, though in terms of usefellness he's still below the mark. As for Tena her annoyance is at Louise' level imo. Hopefully it'll change in the future. Last I find it disturbing the lead is 24 years old surrounded by potentially harem filled with minors WTF lol. |

Have to agree. After seeing this thread, I decided to check this series out and Tena almost instantly gave me Louise vibes. I really haven't found much likable about her in the very little I checked from the series, but it might be enough to turn me away from the anime adaptation.

I absolutely hated the last segment of ZnT II, Louise's abuse in the first ep of season 3 led to me dropping that like a hot rock. I stopped reading the Toradora manga (well before the anime came out) because it gave off ZnT vibes. I really have no problem with Tena... maybe because it's played more for laughs than Znt...

In all I won't really care if the lead is someone like Saito or Minato. This lead guy was just trying to live honestly with the minimum payroll he gladly accept out of musical passion. |

http://d.hatena.ne.jp/moonphase/20090627 But if you can read Japanese, this blogger actually also dismissed the rumor, which also came from 2ch, and notes that the truth of this "news" is unknown. Apart from that, the blogger also expresses disbelief over the idea that Sunrise will animate it (I think he's thinking, "Are there mechs in this manga?"). |

I know, I actually saw MoonPhase's opinion about it after the start of the thread >_> anyway, I'll ask for the thread's closer in a month's time if no confirmation of it really being animated has been announced until then.

Why is it that whenever Yen Press licenses a manga, it gets turned into an anime? It's happened with GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class and tons of others.
I know that English manga companies always prefer to license manga with an anime adaption, as the cross-exposure boosts sales. But I wonder if, when they're at the negotiating table with the publishing company, the publishers are all like, "You know, we're working on an anime adaption too...it hasn't been announced, but there's a good likelihood of it getting finalized..." as an enticement. Or maybe it's just random chance. |
