I'm all for yuri romance but I'd like to know just how much drama is in the manga/might show up in the anime? I don't mind it all that much, but I'm definitely in the mood for something that doesn't go too dark for the forseeable future.

I don't mind it all that much, but I'm definitely in the mood for something that doesn't go too dark for the forseeable future. I'd say Bloom manages its tone very well IMO. There's some drama and some struggling with self-loathing/identity issues and such, but I wouldn't say the story ever really wallows in it for very long and you always get the sense that things are going to work out for the best in the end. I certainly wouldn't describe it as a terribly 'dark' series. Spiritus Nox fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Sep 19, 2018 |

There was an early premiere event for the anime today. No luck finding any video raws yet, but twitter buzz seems quite positive. Also, they announced that an anthology comic is in the works. No release date yet, but it'll be including guest chapters from Canno (A Kiss And A White Lily), Itou Hachi (Kindred Spirits On The Roof), and Mekimeki Oukoku (Toki, many many MANY doujins), among others. Sounds like a good time! http://yurinavi.com/2018/09/22/yagakimi-ansoro/

https://twitter.com/Anime/status/1044614515562872832 Sentai has acquired anime distribution rights, which isn't honestly a great sign. Means the show's probably going to be stuck on HiDive, and watching shows there has been an adventure recently even aside from the annoyance of needing another subscription if you want to watch legally. Hopefully a good fansubber group emerges or HiDive gets its poo poo together for this one.

Fffffffffff. I hope the translation manages to be a lot better than they did for Revue Starlight.

Sakurazuka posted:It has much more straightforward dialogue at least Yeah, it has the advantage of being much more grounded and, beyond that, not having critical dialogue delivered through song. I'm more annoyed because I was hoping this could be the first real big breakout Yuri anime since Maidragon (which was a very different sort of thing anyway), but if it lands on HiDive or (god forbid) Amazon there's a big audience of people who only watch stuff on Crunchy who are likely to miss out. Alas.

https://twitter.com/AnimeNewsNet/status/1044977913500762112 HiDive it is. Thankfully there’s at least no major streaming delay like they’ve done for some shows. Just hope the subs are passable. Put the broadcast information in the OP. Also a dubcast coming on a 3 week delay, for those interested. Spiritus Nox fucked around with this message at 19:56 on Sep 26, 2018 |

https://www.hidive.com/stream/bloom-into-you/s01e001 Show's page is up on HiDive, under 12 hours out from airtime, get hyyyyyyyyyyyyype Also HiDive has the show listed at 13 episodes, which is the closest thing I've seen to an official announcement regarding the show's length. Could just be a placeholder number, but probably isn't. There isn't enough manga to justify two full cours, but there's definitely enough manga 13 eps makes more sense than the more common 12. Probably as close as we could get to an ideal length. Edit: Correction - it's 12 eps per this tweet: https://twitter.com/ultimatemegax/status/1048061177698373632 Spiritus Nox fucked around with this message at 05:25 on Oct 5, 2018 |

Episode 1 just aired, I'm extremely delighted with how it came together. Wish we could have covered all the way through chapter two, but going a bit slower makes sense for the first episode and I suspect the last scene of chapter 2'll be the first of the next ep, so whatever. Like I said, really delighted with how the first episode came together in terms of production - the VA's all sound how I'd imagined them, the art and animation are nicely detailed and fluid, and there's some small but effective tweaks to the script from the manga.

I still think some of the artwork and direction is kinda iffy, but this turned out better than I'd been worrying. The additions to the script here and there that either play with character traits early or just sketch in conversations a little more are nice.

For the record, if anyone simply can't watch on HiDive for whatever reason, Asenshi is doing fansubs. They're usually quite good, I liked their subs for Little Witch Academia and Amanchu quite a bit.

Meant to share this yesterday, but: https://twitter.com/yagakimi/status/1048778211717349376 The spinoff LN focusing on Sayaka is set to release on November 10th, and it appears to indeed be a prequel. Manga readers can probably guess what it'll be focusing on. Who knows when it gets licensed or fan-translated, but for any japanese-readers who might be interested there you go. As a sidenote, I believe it's not written by Nakatani like the manga is, but by Hitoma Iruma, author of Adachi and Shimamura. Spiritus Nox fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Oct 7, 2018 |

https://twitter.com/yagakimi/status/1050294934903738368 PV up for episode two. Looks like we're gonna cover more like two chapters today, which I kind of expect to be our usual pace heading forward. Expect to finish Volume 1 by episode 3, and volume 2 hopefully by episode 5 or so.

I haven't actually seen Marimite and dunno what your particular hangup might be, but this is very much in the category of yuri manga that only ever touches on Class S dynamics to go "yeah that sucks" and move on.

How so? At the very least the main characters relationship is far too unambiguous to ever mark it as Class S.

SatoshiMiwa posted:The train scene was 100% romance anime cliche but that probably became my number 1 favorite train scene by direction yes It's such a good loving cliche though. Watched episode 2, still delighted with how the adaptation is coming together. If we average 2, 2.5 chapters per episode going forward that'll be a really solid pace, the production is pretty solid, the directing is sappy and cheesy in all of my favorite ways, and I'm really delighted with how the voice cast is nailing their performances. Takada's Yuu is better than I expected so far - and I expected her to be pretty solid - and Kotobuki and Kayano as Touko and Sayaka are just flawless.

Stuff like that and the train passing kiss are so visually dramatic that it kind of makes me laugh, but they're also genuinely good ways of getting across the impact of moments that in the manga were communicated through the stylization of single panels.

Yeah, I've seen a few takes about how the visual direction is a little much and I can't entirely disagree, but I'm generally much happier with a director who's trying too hard than with one who's not trying hard enough, and that only goes double for material like this.

Episode 3 was fuckin' great. Really loved how they fleshed out Yuu's campaign speech from the manga version, and Kotobuki and Takada were both fantastic today in this week's big Yuu/Touko talk. Really pleased with the directing, too - as hammy as it can get during some of the big moments, I feel like this week in particular demonstrated a real eye for the small gestures. So important for a story like this. I struggle to imagine a significantly stronger adaptation of this first few eps than what we've gotten.
