Okay, how about this for discussion: Has anyone both played a VN and watched the anime of that VN? Kyoani's Air, Clannad, and Kanon come to mind. Since we should be discussing what animation studio is best for KS, how did those adaptations turn out? How did they handle the characters, and setting? What did they do about the branching paths? And do you agree with what they did?Silentcook wrote:Please watch out people, this thread has already taken several... "unique" turns and it seems bound on a course heading off into the wastes.

I was just saying to myself, "what KS needs is more words, incomprehensible analogies, mitten hands, and to drop Hisao's IQ about twenty points." On the plus side, breast upgrades all round.
My opinion on the Fate/Stay Night adaptation is pending my finishing the anime and... um... being able to afford Fate/Stay Night. So far, I like the anime as an anime, however.G3n0c1de wrote: Okay, how about this for discussion: Has anyone both played a VN and watched the anime of that VN?

I agree 100%. No studio ruins an anime with bad endings more than Gainax. I was depressed & traumatized for 3 days after I finished the Mahoromatic boxed set I bought at Izumicon back in November.Mercutio wrote:I haven't read this thread for a while, but I got an idea. someone said somewhere upthread that the problem with KS being animated would be figuring out which girl Hisao gets in the end, 'cause if it's a VN, you can't really say which ending is canon or not (I think. this is the first VN I've played, so don't hurt me if I got that wrong). so I was thinking this:
you do the whole thing like it's going to end up a harem anime, with all the girls having feelings for Hisao one way or another. some stuff happens - he goes on a date with one or two, there's some "d'awwww" moments, some moments where it seems like something's going to happen, some almost-confessions. then, in like episode 12 ('cause we don't want to stretch this over 26 episodes, that'd be fan-torture), Hisao's heart goes out. he lives, but he's rushed to the hospital. all through episode 13, the girls visit him in the hospital one at a time. none of them confess, but he realizes how good he has it and all that.
then?
HE DIES.
last part of the anime is all the girls walking out of the hospital, sad music playing, all that. no one hooks up in the end, it's all one massive ship tease, and the fans can argue over who he would have been with for all time. viewers cry. (I'd be one of them.)
of course, if you're gonna end it like that, who else could you get to make it but Gainax?
*runs like hell*
Haha what, you don't want a vaguely happy ending for KS after a crapsack denoument, only to realize after you're done watching that it was probably a dying vision?Drow_Wizard74 wrote:

To be fair, Gainax didn't make the bad end for Mahoromatic; it had always been a downer ending. However, Gainax did make the crapsack world coda; the original manga's coda actually ended happily.Drow_Wizard74 wrote:No studio ruins an anime with bad endings more than Gainax.
