Vote for your favorite 2003 bishoujo game-turned anime series!

[bluemist]

This is definitely the year where a LOT of bishoujo games were turned into anime series. As far as I know there has never been this much bishoujo game-to-anime conversions in any year. And so I ask you people, what is/are your favorite/s? This would also serve as a guide for me in what I should be watching next (I only saw 4 out of those 7).

I may have missed some other anime, please tell me in case. I voted for Da Capo and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, both good in their own way!

[Keitaro]

I voted for KgNE, D.C, Yami, Tsukihime and Popotan. Is Popotan even an bishoujo game?

Edit: oops I forgot to vote for Popotan too bad I can't revote.

[Xiandu]

Yes Popotan is a game and i have the cg's to prove it. Anyways it was a hard choice between KgNE and Tsukihime for me. I also like Popotan. I almost gave up on Popotan at first but i am glad i stayed with it because it was actually pretty good and a very heartfelt story admidst all the nudity.

Oh ok you don't have to prove it I believe you.

KgNE, Yami to Boushi and Popotan. ^_^; Green Green was a hilarious show though..

[bOcyOgl]

I've only watched KGNE, tsukihime and yami

KGNE is great, tsukihime's story is good (japanese vampire story)

but i cant really understand yami... maybe its about everyone falling in love/ with hatsuki(eve)

[Relentless]

I voted for Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito just because it's different.

While I liked Popotan, I found it very disturbing, both the game and the anime. Would you not consider it kiddie porn? The youngest sister must be 8 or 9 y-o, and in the game (I have seen the scenes) she appears in explicit sex scenes. In the first episode, the kid who got his head wedged between the older sister's breasts coudn't be younger.

I don't want to sound prudish, but you can be sure I won't be showing Popotan to my sisters or my mom

That's what you get when the majority of Japanese male otakus happen to be lolicon and "little-sister type" to be something of a "moe~."

I just played the entire Green Green game, all 5 characters (there's no Reika in the game). The anime is definitely waay more explicit than the game itself (there's no bears, monkeys and the sauna room thingy in the game). The baka trio are really quite down to earth folks in the game. Unlike Da Capo and Kiminozo, Green Green TV doesn't really take much of the storyline from the game. The TV series seems like an amalgamation of little bits and pieces of the game, plus an amazing dose of ecchiness added to the baka trio.


Game spoilers:

Spoiler:

Midori's ending was rather confusing, probably because I can't speak Japanese. But she does come from a different time or something. Sanae's ending is just really sad and tragic. Wakaba's is just strange, I really don't know how she can be Futaba's sister. Futaba's ending is the most normal out of them all. Chigusa's ending is the forbidden teacher-student relationship thingy.

Anyway, I voted for Kiminozo. Didn't know you could vote for more than one else I would have voted for Green Green as well. The game is really good in my opinion.

Hello, hello, this is like my first post in the forum, anyhow, Tsukihime was just so cool, it should last forever.

[Tensai_kamen]

If i have multiple votes, it will definitely be D.C. , Tsukihime, KgNE & Popotan. But here i choose D.C. cos i love their character designs best.

[7thMethuselah]

tough choice between Kimi ga nozomu eien and shingetsutan tsukihime but i voted for KGNE in the end. I haven't seen all of the series listed in the poll but these two are definitelly worth your time

[eMpTy265]

I picked Kimi ga Nozomu Eien.


#1. The game was EXCELLENT, and I actually tried to read EVERY LINE...
#2. The conversion was near flawless, and I'm completely addicted.
(Although the amount of angst is getting overwhelming... hope they don't overkill)



(I was surprised to find out that I almost had all the games above [missing Raimuiro Senkitan]..)

DC doesn't include many events from the game. (despite being 26 eps.)


Yami seemed totally different, and I still think it's confusing... waiting for the end to tie it up. (Personal bias: I don't really like homo-sexuality... so that's a bias factor)


Tsukihime was really good, but compared to the game they changed things... and I wish Tsukihime[the anime] was longer as well... somehow something feels missing...


Green Green TV was much more messed up... and less plot IMO
(The three guys were MUCH more ecchi in the TV version... )


Popotan was.... can't describe it... just didn't like it. =P

[boneyjellyfish]

What, no Mizuiro?

Fortunatly, I was able to remove from my mind *those* kinds of images from my mind after a while, as it's not hinted at in the show, so it wasn't a big problem for me. But seriously, at least other "lolis" are 14 and have some signs of physical maturation and just seem younger*...Mii is just 9! What the hell?



*not that that's much better, but it's a question of degree here.

Kinomoto Sakura is only 10.
That's where the word "moe~~~~~" comes from, by the way.

[Kamui4356]

Shingetsutan Tsukihime.
On the old forums I had a poll similar to this, only it wasn't limited to anime based on bishojo games. KGNE had an absolute majority on that. I had voted for it as well. Now Shingetsutan Tsukihime is beating it. That's a clear sign on how much KGNE has gone downhill lately. It's still good, but nowhere near as good as it could have been.
Edit: Now that I think about it, my thread on the old forums only allowed one vote per person and a lot of people said that they considered Shingetsutan Tsukihime, but then went for another series. That could also explain why it's doing so much better now.

Huh? I thought Sakura always said "hohehhh~" or something similar to that.

[Thelastguardian]

Where is Kanon @_@ I want Kanon!!!

Anyway my fav. is Shingetsutan Tsukihime with Kanon right after it (too bad Kanon's ending doesn't allow sequence).

[EvoSpace]

My vote goes to Yamibou. Its character design is far superior than any other series listed. I think this is the only series that's actually interesting for the people who already played the original game too.
