First Kyoto Animation Adaptation of a Kadokawa property in a VERY long time.
Frankly, that combo had never failed us before. Hope this won't be an exception. Note that the story is inspired by how Japan is falling on hard times and amusement parks just can't stay profitable. The author has a strange way to come up with a story.

This looks awesome just from the author and studio themselves. Manager for an amusement park huh? Wonder how does the story plays out. Also I'm sure many will probably wonder why animate this instead of a FMP sequel (me included ) but this is great too.

Ha ha.... Interesting. Is this Kadokawa? If this is.. Wow...
1 cour of this + haruhi would be possible. Oh well, it was at least nice to see a rumor to be proven true for a change.

Firstly I must say that it's HILARIOUS how Kyoani is adapting a LN that is by the same author as FMP that isn't FMP itself. Talk about assholish trolling .
Incoming butthurt FMP fans Anyways, glad to see Shoji Gatoh is back to scripting for Kyoani, having adapted Hyouka and created the FMP franchise. Now we just need Takemoto as the director and we're set for a good Kyoani series for once. 2013 was a garbage year for them and 2012 wasn't much better except for Hyouka. Actually have expectations for this unlike the rest of dem other Kyoani slice of life shows since it's not one of Kyoani's own shitty in-house properties.

I don't really think it's trolling. Honestly, people just need to move on. Yes, we get that FMP and Haruhi were fun shows, but come on man, just move on. It's not like only Kyoani can do them. They were good and we had are fun, but putting them on a pedestal is getting tiring and just makes them overrated as hell, much like every Kyoani show. Just sit back and watch, and judge it on its own merits for once, maybe.

Anyway, I must admit to be even more curious (kinimarimas?) about the storyline now.... I am hoping they will do a good job on this one - visuals, bgm and OP/ED are almost always extremely well done, but hopefully the other elements will be steady, or even well done? If not, well, it will be... umm... unpleasant! (Sorry - could not resist! ) Have there been other anime series that focused on managing a theme park, btw? None come to mid at the moment....

Btw, I really like the design of the main female from the LN cover. I hope the anime art doesn't deviate too much. Hyouka style deviations will be tolerable. Hopefully it won't be K-onifciation...

Based Gatoh is here to save KyoAni.
(Still don't know why they don't just get him to create an original concept for them instead of massively changing some LNs that got entered in their contest) Not many lns released yet but if Gatoh is also working on the anime he can easily make new stuff for the anime. I fail to see how animating Shoji Gatoh's newest and current light novel series over one that finished up 2 and a half years ago is trolling. Not to mention that one of the points of most anime adaptions is to push the original source. New LN series that isn't even a year old vs one that's over a decade old, is finished and already had 3 anime series + a thousand manga spinoffs. |

HOLY GUACAMOLE! A Gatoh story adapted by KyoAni? Shut up and take my money man! If FMP and Houka (where Gatoh handled the script) are anything to go by I'm rather going to enjoy this. Gatoh is going to save (KyoAni) anime!*
*joke 100% intended
