If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

So are they just going to do like 2 eps for each route and call it a day? lol.

Somehow I feel like either Amane or Sakaki is going to be the final in the anime, and it'll probably be a little bit longer i guess? I donno i stopped watching the anime when i picked up the VN b/c that was the whole point lol. Maybe i should just watch it anyways so i can finally join everybody in bitching about how they butchered everything

The latest Amaburi episode was quite good. Quality was top notch. Hopefully it keeps up, only 7(?) episodes left.

6-7 Yumiko
8-9 Makina
That means Sacchin and Amane~ are the last two in some order.


Surprisingly (or not so surprisingly, depending on how you look at it), Grisaia anime has been garnered a lot of salt but I mean, really? For non-VN viewers, the response is generally positive. But if you've played the VN, there's no realistic way they can cover the game in ~12 episodes, 22 min each. Just enjoy it for what it is. It's only an atrocity if you have this expectation that the anime can match the source material.

Personally, I watched the past two episodes today after finishing Michiru's route over the weekend and while there are obvious things lacking, I think it's rather well done. I 'regret' the studio not + Show Spoiler [Michiru's route] +
adding the funeral scene in the anime (Michiru's reaction to her friends' goodbyes. Also, Yumiko's emotion was just so raw, best moment of Michiru's route imo)

like Michiru's antics in the hospital, trying to make people laugh. You also get moments like the Meowmel/taxi scene animated and I thought it was great (read: sad)
.

Overall, if you enjoyed GnK, don't hate the anime for not being a VN equivalent. If anything, it's probably meant to draw more fans to the VN once they see an appeal in anime form.

I just finished the Michiru route also. Stayed up all night to finish it (again) I seriously am addicted to these stories. I gotta say originally i didn't really like Michiru (i mean i kinda did but her character/jokes just got old real fast) but as the story unfolded i found myself liking her more and more. She's still probably gonna end up being my least favorite route of all of them, but that doesn't mean it was in any way bad.

My only real complaint is + Show Spoiler +
that the sex scenes are entirely unnecassary and badly placed (in the timeline i mean). Particularly that bath scene with michiru...like after all this intensely sad part and then there's an intensely joyful moment, and all of a sudden they're banging. I'm like wtf?! Seriously, these stories are really really good and there's absolutely no need for the sex scenes. I'm wondering if they did it b/c they wanted to sell the game more or w/e, but i just feel when you can write an incredibly strong emotional story like this it should be able to sell extremely well on its own.+ Show Spoiler +
Also none of this really needed to be spoilered but I'm having fun with them so haha
Oh well... On to the next route..Probably Makina, but i might go for Yumiko next and then Makina and finish with Sachi.

Episode 7's title is obviously Sachi though. I'd hate to think they're doing Yumiko/Sachi with 1ep each and then 4 eps for Amane ~_~ Though at that rate, they could do 2eps Amane, 2 eps Meikyuu and end on its cliffhanger for season 2 lolol.

Why would there be a S2 when they butchered everything in 13 eps. Don't know why companies find butchering adaptions so fun.

Because "everything" is only the first of 3 games, and they obviously want to do all 3.

I think random MAL users decide whether or not a chara is a main chara or not so not the most reliable. Also we know plenty of main characters that just randomly die because death.

The Arpeggio anime also garnered quite a lot of positive reception. Didn't mean it wasn't an abomination.

And quite honestly, if I hadn't read the VN already, I would have dropped the anime by now. Butchering of the VN plot aside, the pacing of the show is horrendous. + Show Spoiler +
They gave the cat what, 5 minutes of screentime before killing it off? Yeah, that'll really pull at my heartstrings.
They didn't even cover any of the things that really define Mitcher's personality aside from the faux tsundere persona.

Overall, if you enjoyed GnK, don't hate the anime for not being a VN equivalent. If anything, it's probably meant to draw more fans to the VN once they see an appeal in anime form.

So I shouldn't hate a blatant cash grab and/or advertisment? I don't really understand.

Its a bit of a VN commercial as are a lot of anime (e.g Gundam is a toy commercial)

Doesn't mean you can't like/dislike it.

Gundam is still mostly solid though. This is a full VN commercial and nothing else.

edit: Sorry I lied. It's also a Panties commercial.
