Oh yeah I have a good excuse to post this every week now.
Anno
These are some really good illustrations for the ED.
Anno
Oh I see. In the VN and the original anime adaptation, the first chapter was Onikakushi. But for this anime, the chapter is Onidamashi. Close enough in name to maintain the similarity, but clearly different. That name even lampshades it, translating to English as "Demon-Deceiving"
Ah this is excitinnnngggg
Yuu
It would be very higurashi to promise a remake and deliver something else. I guess we'll see where it goes. Thanks for anime.
Anno
If it's a set of new story arcs too then that throws out the whole "how will they cram the VN into a single season of anime?" question.
But yeah, thanks for anime. Enjoy the weekend if you don't come 'round!
I wonder if she'll actually get stuck or if she'll just play a lot
Anno
I'm pretty sure that's what the synopsis said. I guess I'll go check again.
>Fifteen-year-old Yuna prefers staying home and obsessively playing her favorite VRMMO game to doing anything else, including going to school. When a strange new update gives her a one-of-a-kind bear outfit that comes with overpowered abilities, Yuna is torn: the outfit is unbearably cute, but too embarrassing to wear in-game. But then she suddenly finds herself transported into the world of the game, facing down monsters and magic for real, and the bear suit becomes the best weapon she has!
It's a bit weird since the synopsis doesn't seem to entirely line up with the show since she's already wearing the outfit in-game.
Yuu
Yeah I guess we'll see either way it was pretty okay thanks for anime!
Anno
The MC was cute so I enjoyed it.
Thanks. Try to make it for tomorrow we'll probably have Higurashi to watch!
Or shuffling things a bit so it doesn't feel too much like a repetition of the first adaptation. Plus like you did say earlier, the cat's kind of been out of the bag for some of these major twists now almost twenty years. I'm interested in seeing what they choose to do differently this time around.
Yuu
Hopefully since the cat is out of the bag, they'll concentrate more on the story after things start to go crazy. How many eps is this going to be?
Anno
I've only heard of a single cour confirmed so far. Which is a bit worriesome since the first adaptation of the first four VN arcs was two-cour, and they still had to do some super compression to get it all in there. Buuuut at the same time the PV material for this new adaptation, the people who have been analyzing it, think they've only seen stuff from the first three arcs, plus maybe a few small early introductions here any there. So this one cour might only be three of the original arcs. It's hard to tell! Plus some times the online information is incorrect or not accurately reported and a second-cour follows up the first one without us being told it wll. For the moment though, only one cour is confirmed.
Yuu
I wonder what arcs they'll do thanks for anime
Anno
They showed both twins so we'll probably be getting their arc. It was the second one in the first adaptation so it'll probably be second here too I bet.
Man that's kind of a downer resolution for a bunch of the characters. Cop boy is basically just now a military tool for hunting terrorists. The professor is still trying to force evolution the human race which is kinda ethically sus. The aidoru is now a prettyboy hacker Batman trying to be a superhero in the shadows. And the MC lost her cool precog superpowers and still seems to be stalked by evil entities.
Only person that came out on top was CEO Sugita.
Yuu
keikaku doori I guess
kind of a weird ending but it was kind of a weird series
Anno
Probably hard to make a concrete story out of a phone game dating sim. They also probably seed stuff like the aidoru going edge and maybe actually do something with the professor being colourblind in their specific routes in the game. Well it wasn't the worst thing this series. Er this season. But probably the second-worst.
