Spoiler for Thoughts:

Kotori is really interesting. She was already so likable in the demo that I didn't think she would have another side to her. Her table in the forest is supported by a root coming out of the ground, which could be the work of those little fairies flying around her. Since the beginning, her hairstyle and amazing affinity for the forest made me think of a dryad, but I kind of hope that she's an ordinary girl who loves the forest so much that she ends up befriending fairies (yeah, I really doubt it'll be that simple).

Kagari seems to have a lot of potential. She's definitely some kind of enigma.

I keep thinking of Night Wizard when I see this OP. For those unfamiliar with it, in Night Wizard, a goth loli recruits a handful of high school students to protect the world by magically fighting in a parallel universe, and the villain is an even more goth loli who is related to the other one, and there's moon symbolism.

...The Night Wizard parallels and tons of other things make me feel worried I've guessed important plot points. x.x

This really raised my expectations (yeah, I know I'm not the only one). I loved the characterization and characters from the trial, and now I've confirmed some serious physical conflict (I think Mai from Kanon was the most serious before this) that I hope will keep me at the edge of my seat. What the nakige aspect will be like is still something I wonder about, though.

So you can read japanese? From what iv'e seen i dont like the look of this game much. It seems to have completely lost the charm of Keys earlier games. I didnt play little busters, but played Air Kanon and Clannad. I watched the second OP and just saw loads of people jumping around with swords and dinosaurs. wtf......

while key announced that the second OP is not a joke, they also said that action/fighting is not what the whole game revolves around.
according to them, you can also expect scenarios that have barely any of these elements aka more traditional routes.
which is good news to me, because most fighting scenes in eroge/VN put me to sleep.

and this being key, we'll probably get some sort of scenario in the true route that'll make us turn around and call this is a nakige, but w/o maeda involved, maybe not! (i'm hoping this turns out to be another nakige... :P)

Kanon scenario was by Hisaya Naoki I believe. planetarian had most of its scenario done by Suzumoto Yuuichi.

What we expect from Key isn't Maeda, its Key. They have an image, if they wanted to run off and do something contrary to the image, they would probably slap another label on to it instead of Key.

This is Key, the chances the world next year will end are probably higher than the chances Rewrite isn't going to be a nakige.

im just gonna play devil's advocate here because i'm bored and you bothered to reply lol

actually, maeda also had a role in writing the scenario for kanon, however minor it may have been.
as for planetarian, i would have to say the existence and public image of this game is pretty insignificant, almost nonexistent, compared to the likes of air/clannad/LB.

What we expect from Key isn't Maeda, its Key.

to me, this makes no sense
i guess you think otherwise, but in my opinion, maeda's writing is pretty much synonymous with the brand of key up until this point.
- i don't think hisaya's influence on this brand even begins to compare to maeda's.
- not to mention kanon was the very first game under the key brand. if we go by recent trends, i don't think hisaya is even relevant.
- already mentioned planetarian above.
- try and tell me maeda's script for rin's route and refrain were not the only saving grace for little busters (same logic for saya and EX)

They have an image, if they wanted to run off and do something contrary to the image, they would probably slap another label on to it instead of Key.

This is Key, the chances the world next year will end are probably higher than the chances Rewrite isn't going to be a nakige.

i would like to believe key brand no longer has to restrict itself to this.
hisaya only left after kanon.
maeda is slowly fading from involvement as we can see in current trend...
just like maeda said in an interview, one can only crank out so many nakige.
how many times are we gonna see this until it starts to feel forced?
i agree that chances are high rewrite will have some sort of nakige element (and i would like this)
but with rewrite being the first big project with a total overhaul of writing staff, i would like to expect that it will bring something totally new to the brand.

[Random32]

Maeda didn't have the primary role in Kanon. planetarian fits the Key formula and Maeda had little involvement there as well. I'm saying, just because Maeda isn't as involved, doesn't mean it won't fit what we expect from Key. Maeda's writing has a lot of influence on the brand, but just because Maeda isn't writing, doesn't make it not what we expect from the brand.

Also, while Key may eventually branch out, I doubt its going to be a sudden shift. I would expect to see nakige with more non-Key elements, like I would expect Rewrite to be, before I would expect to see a game where I would be in shock was made by Key.

[Ithekro]

Remember that is story also influenced by Ryukishi07. Things may get weirder than a normal Key game.

yes, obviously key brand is synonymous with nakige up until this point. no arguments there.
but i really don't see why it would be so shocking to slap the key label on a game that doesn't follow the trend.
yeh everybody's expecting rewrite to be nakige (including me), but if there is ever a time for change, i would say it is now. i'd even welcome it.

btw, anyone want to comment on kud wafter? i never bothered playing it but it just doesn't seem like a nakige from what i've read lol.

[Leo_Otaku]

The bonus items aren't anything crazy. It really depends on your preorder place of choice. I wished someone would have have Chibimosu plushie like they had for botan, as a pre-order.

OOC: Kudwafter looks like it is the worst rated of the KEY games released so far....

[winkel]

One thing you guys should realize is, the Key of the past is not what the Key of now is wanting to be for the future. The reason why Rewrite is like this is because they're trying to open themselves up to a wider audience. Look at all the talented contract writers they've hired, people who are not known at all for the types of games they've been known for up until now, so you can tell Key is headed for a new direction. It been strongly suggested since Little Busters, and it's even more clear now, and if you're a true fan you'll accept them no matter what they become.

Of course Rewrite will probably have some sad parts, but don't expect it to be solely an emotional tear-jerker like in the past. It's not like that.
