[Anime] Little Busters!

Ep 16



Sorry, just me ranting about how stupid these people are, and reflecting back on my high school days.

The anime fails as an adaptation, IMO. Play the VN.

I wouldn't call it a failure. It's done a good job of capturing alot of the character antics and the jokes, 'fights', title-naming and for the most part, this 'common' route isn't so bad. It's similar to the Clannad adaptation; the problem I see is there's still so much ground to be covered it's unfunny.

But yes, if you do want a more genuine expression of this absolutely mind-blowing go play the VN.

I disagree. Clannad has a superb adaptation, where even the most boring part in the VN was blend and animated nicely into a much more enjoyable segment. In the case of Little Buster, I enjoyed the VN much more than Clannad, but I dont felt even a speck of it in the anime. It does capture the antics and the jokes, but not the timing and the storytelling as much as the VN, giving a sense of 'missed'.

Just my 2 cents.

Ep 21.....



Is this show getting a another season? I can't imagine it finishing anytime soon at this rate.

Bump, for question.

This Little Busters! Refrain, Series is it a direct sequel or what? I dropped the Little Busters Anime, after the first episode, ( I hated MC, especially his voice.) But maybe one of these days, I might comeback and watch the whole series.

I ask cause the streaming site I use, has no summery written for it.

Little Busters Refrain and Little Busters have the same relationship to each other as Clannad and Clannad After Story.

Recall LB is a VN. In the VN after completing all of the character routes the player starts Refrain which is the true ending. The Refrain anime is a sequel with the true ending of the VN and wrapping up any routes not covered by the first season.

So I'm watching Refrain from "Refrain Subs". This is a whole new ball-game. Whatever JC Staff was screwing up in the first season, they're definitely putting out a new set of cards. I've only started the first episode of Refrain and it frequently tugs at my heart(It's probably because I know everything that's to come..)

If you guys didn't like the first season give this one a chance. It's pretty good, the OP grabbed at me as well. I know what's going to go down, and I just know by the end of this I'll be crying again.
