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.
