Me too. Loving the playful and mischievous look she has at times.
Well regarding the source material, I just read a few parts of volume 1. The mystery was so so, though I'm still very eager to see how it pans out for the rest of the seasons. Last edited by rulfo; 2012-04-07 at 11:59. |

The visuals of Hyouka really appeal to me. Very subdued colors for a Kyoani show. Mostly black and white, some brown and dark blue as a primary color. Film noir influences as it's a mystery show?
Character design is quite interesting as well. The lead girls resemble the recent "Kyoani style" but it's not by K-on's Horiguchi I think. Male lead is fairly different as well. I haven't read up on the source material, is it set in the present day? Some images look quite retro. |

From what I can tell, the story takes place around the year 2000.

Excerpt from an Comptiq Interview with Futoshi Nishiya(character design) and Shoji Gatoh(series composition). Some interesting points: Spoiler for Character's personalities:
Theres also a Newtype excerpt, but it has not much of note, so not going to translate those.

On another note, Kadokawa has released the first four novels on their BOOK☆WALKER e-book platform. I'd say it's even more likely we'll only see those four novels adapted in this series.
