That's just Manglobe taking over from J.C.Staff and I don't like it. Less emphasis on their faces.

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure have both had excellent starts.

Fucking great start to the season so far! Most exciting one in a long time.

K was style over substance. Proof is just in the filesizes, freakin 600-800MB for a 720p TV release.

It can get better but they've made an awfully fancy stage for a 13 episode anime.

I haven't watched anime in ages.

If you haven't yet, watch Steins;Gate over this.

The Robotics;Notes anime was announced before the VN was even out, before anyone has any idea of whether it's any good at all.  That pretty much means the anime's just trying to cash in on the fame of Steins;Gate.

And now that the VN is out it's ratings are only average, like not even in the top 500 when Steins;Gate is like top 10.

Still waiting on Ex/Me patch...

Now please noone start bitching about "oh but it'll be so much better if KyoAni blah blah blah", go play the VN if you think the anime's going to ruin everything or whatever.

what? xD

The concern has been somewhat legitimate - without doubt, if KyoAni did it, it would at the very least be more polished than J.C.Staffs work (which has already been proven to have cut corners in places), but they are busy these days and it seems J.C.Staff were very enthusiastic to do it. Key/Visual Arts knew about the fan anxiety and have tried to assure fans - it seems they were happy to let them do it for good reason so fans will have to trust them.

After episode 1 (and feedback from ProperBritish who's actually played it) a couple of things are evident - it's a straightforward adaptation that uses as many elements of the VN in the anime as possible and the animation proved to be good enough to make it feel like a proper Little Busters anime and that's the very least fans can ask for.

If Little Busters fans wanted an adaptation soon, this is as good as it's going to get - and the results so far are excellent.
