The PV looks good IMO; I think we now see what 8-bit was chosen for the project (and I thought of that the other day -- animating the joust scenes would otherwise be a bit of a pain, and 8-bit has a pretty good CG team).

[Miraluka]

Uhhh... the MC doesn't looks average O.o

[n0m@n]

Nice. We dont have a MC with a girl-looking design. He looks quite manly.

[Sheba]

I like how the MC look.

[rickiminato]

i like the pv, but I would like to know which of the 4 heroines route will make

which route they would like to do?

I think this isn't something they will tell us, and speculating on this in detail would probably require game spoilers which can't really go here. But, normal rules for the genre are to pay attention to official promo material and the way characters are presented in promo pictures/videos. And by those rules, I would say that the two most central characters they're presenting are Mio and Celia. That's no guarantee that they'll choose one of those routes, but the odds are a bit higher.

The MC looks decent, and the girls look amazing!

Mio cuts that long beautiful pink hair? Dammit. T_T

[n0m@n]

Celia has the greatest fan among all four heroines lol(Im one of them!).
Though, I dont hear that many people who prefers Noel(Even in this thread I dont see any fans of her lol).

Wow, one good thing I can see in this PV is that the jousters actually CLOSE THEIR HELMS when competing, unlike the game's CGs.

Hitomi Nabatame is still playing the side character Akane in this anime, right? It won't match up to her performance in White Album 2, I'm sure, but it's always nice to hear more of her. I wonder if Eriko Nakamura (Noel's seiyuu) will pull any antics with the female seiyuus of this show (she's famous for harassing Yoko Hikasa on their radio show Momonoki Five, for instance). Eriko Nakamura has also recently worked with Ai Shimizu in the Hoshizora anime.

Spoiler for Reaction; given away by promo material, no details:

This has got to be one of my most-hated things in anime/eroge/whatever. Don't create character designs that look one way, and then substantially change the look half-way through the story! Granted, I don't think Mio looks so bad with her short hair... but it took me a very long time to get used to it, and I greatly preferred the earlier look. (Granted, I'm biased to liking long hair in general.)

Noël is my favourite character in the game by a fairly big margin, and I loved her route. (I think there was someone else who also mentioned her earlier.) But I'm not really much of a "shipper" -- I just want the anime to pick a romance and deliver it well.

(And yeah... I don't dislike the Celia story... but personally, she's not my type at all. Still, like I said, if they do go that way, at least deliver a good romance out of it would be my hope for the anime...)

Lol. Yeah, I get what you mean by shipper. And I finally met someone who prefers Noel.
Im probably a Celia shipper. A hot busty blonde who is cladded in armour wielding a sword lance while riding a horse.

Rather than concentrating on one route, Im sure there will be bits and pieces of other routes.

[JagdPanther]

From the images I've seen, I greatly prefer Mio with short hair.

Yes, I agree that they will probably include parts of all the routes and merge it... but like I said, I still hope they save themselves enough time to tell a convincing romance story. My pet peeve for anime adaptations from this medium is when they focus so much on plot points that they neglect to deliver a convincing romance (since, to me anyway, romance is the main point!).

(And that aside, we'd better create a game thread to discuss the plot points, because there should be no hints in this anime thread.)

[hyl]

I am pretty sure almost everyone prefer Mio when she had long hair. Also the PV looks promising, eventhough i have been fooled in the past by good looking PV's

[MAX_COLA_POWER!]

Definitely has a Princess Lover vibe, but I agree with you all. MC is very manly lookin, like he's ready to get some harem buildin done yo!, though obviously that won't be the intention. If it was, he'd be Maken-Ki's MC^^;;

[NoemiChan]

The male MC is so good looking....!!!! Yeah!!!

[Eisdrache]

I can't really speak for the game as I haven't played it but design wise Noel wins by a large margin :3
