1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:38Yeahx14

Lesbian

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:39Yeahx9

The animation looks a bit… questionable at the PV stage…

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:45

>>2It feels like it’s being cut through the middle… Well, since it’s basically a gag/comedy, let’s look at it generously.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:40Yeahx4

I see that Ichinose-san has completely become a lesbian voice actress.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:42

I saw the Earth name of Nayutan aliens for the first time in a while.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:44Yeahx1

The drawing of the character is well-structured, but when it moves, it feels somewhat stiff.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:45

The scene of jumping onto the train platform already shows a bit of awkwardness.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:47

I want to see Moon’s bath scene soon!
I wonder if I can travel with Ajisai-san…

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:48

>>8I thought I’d do it because there was a scene that looked like it in the PV.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:49

>>8There is a lot of enthusiasm in the PV.
There is also that train scene.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:47

It was good that you drew the underwear properly.
Since it’s a bath festival in the original work, it’s only natural that there would be that much.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:48

I caught a glimpse of the scope of Volume 4, so I’m now wondering how far they’ll go and which episodes they’ll cover.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:50Yeahx1

Are we going to do up to volume 4…?
I’m happy, but isn’t it a bit tight on time?

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:38

>>13Don’t worry, this season’s Kowloon Generic Romance is amazing.
The pace of consuming one chapter per episode is high, and the final episode is planned to be the last one ahead of schedule.
Even though episode 10 is over, volume 9 isn’t finished yet…

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:50

Renasa is looking forward to the bath.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:51

If we can do three episodes in a one-and-a-half hour session and finish one volume, it might work…

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:52

>>15Even if you increase the number of episodes for the first season, won’t the final episode just come earlier than other works?

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:53

Did Re:Zero end up like that?

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:53

Was it a summer anime?
I’m looking forward to it.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:55

If it’s not the SasaKoi course, a little bit of animation is fine…

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:57

>>19What was that to the person themselves…

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:55

I don’t feel like it’s at least 12 episodes for one season.
That’s way too unreasonable.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:56

>>20That said, it doesn’t really seem like a two-course structure, does it?

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:56

I have to worry about the packed digest rather than the drawing.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:56

I think 12 episodes would be just enough to cover about three volumes.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:56

>>224 has been confirmed…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:57

Is Ajisai-san really this big… It might actually be big breasts.
Is Ajisai-san really this big... It might actually be big breasts.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:58

It’s not just an anime adaptation of the comic, after all.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:59

I think there’s no obligation to necessarily stick to a full season’s worth of episodes these days.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)22:59

I have a feeling they managed to do it with Shueisha’s money.
It doesn’t seem like a place where they judge a single season by four volumes.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:00

Well, if we don’t do volume 4, then Rena will become bad and it will make us wonder what happened to Kaho-chan.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:04Yeahx3

>>30Even after doing volume 4, it’s still evil.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:00

Recently, there are more anime adaptations that are different from the original manga.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:00

It’s as if becoming volume 4 would make it no longer evil.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:01

By the way, if we consider one season to be up to volume 4, it can be estimated that in terms of manga adaptation, it exceeds 10 volumes, surpassing volume 9 of Sasakoi!

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:06Yeahx2

>>33It already feels like there are too many characters, so a single season is impossible!

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:11Yeahx1

>>33As expected, I want to believe that Takejima Eku will stop it.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:20

>>52Did light novel illustrators really have that kind of authority…?
I heard that Boogiepop was turned into an anime without me knowing.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:20Yeahx2

>>52It’s amazing that the person directly involved in that is here, calmly thinking about it…

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:01

Anime often has many elements of comic adaptations.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:06

It’s only a preview of the first episode.
There might be a theory that it’s not 30 minutes.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:06

Do you want to go as far as a fork in the road?

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:06

I’ve only read the comic adaptation, but is the story different from the original?

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:09

>>39Almost the same.
It has a feel of exaggerated gag panels typical of manga.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:06

I hope it gets a good response and serves as a romantic comedy that properly wraps up at a good stopping point within the anime’s runtime.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:07

Isn’t it actually two cours?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:07Yeahx2

I’d like that thing that used to happen occasionally, around 15 episodes in total.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:09

>>42Kadokawa sometimes has 20 episodes or something like that, right?

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:07

If it’s 2-cour, that might end up being a waste of time!

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:07

I’m fine with anything as long as it doesn’t damage the original creator and the publication doesn’t get delayed…

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:08

>>44Whether it’s good or bad, or normal, anime adaptation tends to damage the original creator, so that worry is difficult.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:08

It looks like it’s quite complete at this point, so I feel reassured.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:10

Well, Kami-Kami Teren is currently doing Ren from Love Live!
It seems like I’m getting a lot of work, including collaborating with Minori Chikusa and doing manga adaptations…

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:10

If we’re going to include comic elements, I’d be happy if we have Mr. Musshu’s deformed faces.
Because Hanashura ended up having a serious style, there was absolutely nothing of that…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:10

The process of turning it into an anime seems tough for the original creator too…

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:11

Since Teacher Takejima Eku will probably draw some kind of licensed artwork, I should be prepared for a hiatus of Sasakoi…

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:15

I want to see the red leaves soon.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:18

The main greeting is the maishatsu.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:22

Is the original work a novel?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:24

>>58That’s right.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:23

I hope it’s a more proper anime than Sasakoi.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:24

Sasa Koi felt like it was already in trouble when the broadcast was postponed, but it turned out worse than expected.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:25

First of all, the reason “Sasa-koi” was somehow able to be completed by cutting out everything except the main story is that it would lose about half of the total volumes if we didn’t…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:25

I’m curious about how many episodes there are, but there’s no need for such excessive worry…

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:28

>>63It’s understandable to be sensitive because there are yuri anime that can cause excessive worry…

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:27

Just the thread image gives it a slice-of-life anime feel.
I might not have realized this was a yuri anime just from this alone.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:27

Is it a curse or something that causes the artwork to fall apart when it’s by Eku Takashima?

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:33

>>65I think it’s a drawing that requires a lot of effort.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:28

It seems that there will be an announcement of the latest volume of the original work from the editorial department sometime in June.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:28

>>67Huh? Isn’t it the comic adaptation?

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:29

>>68It has already been announced.
They are saying there will be a big announcement in June.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:28

Rena’s actions may be like that, but she has her cool sides too.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:30

>>69They do have the classic protagonist traits properly.
What kind of protagonist do you think you are? Don’t get carried away, Rena!

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:30

I think it’s more of a short story collection.
It seems that the entry has disappeared.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:30Yeahx1

Regarding the length judgment of “Sasakoi,” I think it’s understandable except for the outrageous act of cutting the first kiss because I wanted to see all of Shiho’s various things, but considering the richness of the content and the heat of the scene, it should be fine…

Seriously, what is a romance story that cuts the protagonist’s and heroine’s first kiss?

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:32

Maybe it’s okay to stylize the hair drawing a bit more.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:32Yeahx2

Ever since it was announced that it would be animated, there have only been voices of concern.
Can you not honestly look forward to it?

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:33

>>75It is due to the large expected value and the difficulty of measuring.
If we’re going to do it before the anime adaptation, it would be up to volume 4, but people were saying it wouldn’t be possible in one season.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:33Yeahx1

>>75I think it’s not really appropriate to mention the names of other works…

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:36

>>75But if my neighbor had a huge explosion and fire, I would definitely be worried.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:32Yeahx3

I thought the animation was quite good, but the standards for recent anime are really high…

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:34

>>76Honestly, unless the face is so distorted that it’s obviously uncomfortable to look at, I really don’t care, so I really want people who are always complaining about the animation to just stop.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:41Yeahx4

>>76Since it’s an early response and just has a “Yeah” attached, it doesn’t feel that bad at all.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:33Yeahx2

“Regarding anime, it’s not just this one; for fans of the original work, it’s always the concerns that prevail, seriously.”

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:35

I wish the ones with low hurdles would just keep quiet about it.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:35

The comic adaptation was too good.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:35

Trust the scriptwriter Mr. Arakawa (subscriber of Yuri Hime).

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:35

Will Kaho-chan’s appearances be exaggerated in the anime original?
It feels like the influence is weak in the scope of the anime adaptation, doesn’t it?

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:41

>>85It’s around volume 5 that they really start to establish their position as a friend.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:36

When I see an anime made by an illustrator, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:36Yeahx1

Don’t get carried away, Rena.
It’s just right for someone like you to marry Ajisai and take another girl as a mistress.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:37

Will I surpass manga?

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:47

>>89The manga adaptation has reached volume 4, but the next update is in July.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:37

Anzai’s hydrangea…

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:40

There is a rule that anime with a pre-release final episode tends to be a good work…

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:44

The animation might be a bit questionable, but being praised this much is all due to the incredibly good animation of the PV for Sasakoi.
It’s fine if the worst Rena-chan becomes a being like Bocchi-chan.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:48Yeahx1

People who say “the animation is…” must be demanding incredibly beautiful and smooth animation.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:49

When the original illustrations or manga are beautiful, it feels like the incredibly detailed animation is moving in my mind, so the gap feels much larger.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:52

Hurry up and date Satsuki.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:56

>>100Best friend! Best friend! Not a lover!!

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/10(Tue)23:56
