Good character development in this episode. Loled at the "baseball test". Looking forward to the next episode.

Is this going to be a harem route? I haven't played LB! nor have I read much on it either... I avoid spoilers if I can help it in most cases. Like, I'm not too sure if this is going to be like how KyoAny did it with most of Key's games... they turned the routes into resolved arcs fitting into a single continuum, a main story being followed to the end. It doesn't look like it in this anime...

Well, so far so good anyway.

Unless J.C. plans on changing the story, which won't like happen since they plan on keeping it true to the VN, there won't be any arcs that lead to this form of continuation. It should be entirely different from how Clannad was animated. And don't worry, this won't turn into a harem.

I'm enjoying the obvious thought that was put in the story and characters so far and I found this episode a little bit better than the first.

The quality of work put out by J.C. Staff I reckon kinda does shroud what so far appears to be an exceptional storyline. That said, as long as there aren't any complete half-assed, sloppy drops in quality, I think that this show can still fly.

Great episode, Rin is just awesome. I find it really hard to dislike her. x]

I hope this show will turn into at least 9/10 by the end of the season(s). :D

Read your messages :P Clicking on the link I provided you with made me want to download it again T.T

On topic:

"Muscle, Muscle, aw, yeah"

Don't know why, but awesome and extremely funny... I laughed so hard xD

I was finally reminded why I love every fucking character in this show... Rin is so cute, all shy and her faces were nicely animated. Komari, cute airhead... How can someone find her annoying...? Even after they played her route and know why she acts like that? Even after the major part she had in the end (oops xD)?

I love LB! XD If they continue this way I won't be able to choose my favorite again. Even in VN I couldn't I simply liked Mio and Kud a little more because for some reason I am attracted to social rejects and silent type girls... Then I see how cheerful Haruka is and then I like her... No, dilemma xD I choose all of them...

Ok my random bullshit is out, sorry for that, I just got reminded of great and wonderful feelings I had while I played visual novel.

Also, "There is a secret in this world" part... Riki's flashback or whatever it was... I don't like that that was inserted. Heavy foreshadowing... Ah well, it surely will make anime watching people only enjoy it more.

Now I can't wait to see what will be the arc order. I think it would be by the sequence of introducing the girls.

Komari -> Kurugaya -> ??? -> ??? -> ??? -> (???) -> Rin.

Or they will really start at Rin1.

Rin1 -> Komari -> Kurugaya -> ??? -> ??? -> ??? -> (???) -> Rin2.

Well, I'm not really disappoint because Komari's arc will be first... The thing is...

1. 4-6 is WAY TOO SOON. D:
2. I can't predict what will happen after Komari's arc. And what's the next arc after Komari's.
3. If that's too soon, they can cover Refrain on this 2 cour season. By any means, most of the arcs' stories will get rushed.
4. I really wonder what will or can they do about Kurugaya's story.


I may add more because I do really get a bad feeling about this. Or maybe it's just because I didn't follow the "logical path order" when I play the VN.

Well, actually I find it too short too, but, all those explanations in VN that took you time to read and those descriptions through texts can be shown through scenery, thoughts and that's why it is shorter, although I still feel it's too short, although not too soon... We'll see what will come up out of it... I still wonder how they are going to deal with time reset. I hated that part in VN.... I chose one girl I want to be with her...

It can be the VN itself because, for me, most the gags in the VN are not really funny and corny and few of it are really hilarious.

@chanotek: don't worry, it was a stupid recommendation, you are not spoiled.

My comment to the episode: 90% screeentime of Komari is a full win, she's funny. I don't like her voice too much, but it adapts well to the character. She reminds me of a penguin in the animation.
"Guts, Courage, Friendship". "You pass!"
Masato is a lovable muscolar idiot. I hope they show more battles in the next episodes.

The foreshadowing is everywhere, why they think Little Busters can't entertain with common daily life? It's what made me love the Visual Novel, it was a normal story of friendship for the common path.

And I'm glad too the first girl is Komari. It was my first path.
Please keep the spoiler to the minimum, I have seen some comments that spoil slightly, a lot of people haven't play the VN.

5/5, I'm satisfied by the adaptation for now.

Well common route is obviously going to be separated into few parts. So once you are done with one girl you go to the next one, common route starts again, but it is different from what we already saw... That's my guess anyway...

This episode felt somehow more natural than the previous one, which is nice.
I don't really think the animation improved though.

Kyousuke's 'you pass!' never ceases to make me laugh.Masato vs Kengo round 2 had me rolling when Masato yelled 'Human Bubble Bath!', lmao.Love the comedy in LB.

Also liking how they're keeping to their word about 'adding more scenes of Rin getting to be friends with the other girls' since we never did get to see how she got so close to Komari in the visual novel.It's cute beyond words seeing the two of them interacting ^_^ Kyousuke's proud smile watching them both was really sweet.Masato giving Komari the shoe was also a nice addition, he's such a bro(plus they did the muscle dance!Hoping to see more of that in the future haha)

I liked the secret of the world scene.It shows those who haven't played the VN that there is actually going to be a plot in this show.And it's a big one, at that.Like others I felt Ring Ring Ring could've gone for longer while they were talking but it's no biggie.

I thought Riki's narcolepsy attack being the cliffhanger would be overly dramatic when I heard about it but it was actually quite nice, gave me the same feeling of 'what now?' that I got when he fell asleep suddenly in the VN.


Looking forward to Kurugaya and Haruka next week, they're awesome in completely different ways.On Komari's route being the first one done, I think that's great.Her route is my favorite of the side girl routes and I think 2-3 episodes is just right to cover it.

It's a shame that they couldn't illustrate the character's eyes as good as Kyo or Shaft, cause when I looked into it, I didn't see any excitement coming from Rin at all +_+ ... wonder if it's just me.

Aside that, looks like the group has found a new member and Rin became more active as well. Let's see wheres this going...

Pretty much Komari's ep, her and her pantsu :D
Leon-Gun said:
Her skirt gets stuck in the VN too and Riki mentions the anteater so yeah, he definately saw them. There wasn't an actual image showing them though, since LB wasn't an eroge.

Oh, come on, don't you say that you don't remember
scenes from visual novel :> Since it's J.C.Staff, they will probably show those scenes as well, I guess.
Next time Yui-chan :D It's going to be awesome. My favourite heroine is Rin, so I'm not waiting that much for anyone, but I want to see rest of them anyway.

There new member is pretty interesting her way of behaviour and speech are pretty funny as well especially how the team reacted to her.
She also wanted to become friends with Rin right away and Rin's reaction to that was pretty cute especially after being called Rin-chan.
And next week might also be interesting from the looks of it.

I'm not impressed. At all.

Panties = not necessary.
Kamikita = ultra-annoying moeblob.
Rin = annoying bitch.

Riki and Kyousuke are good. Masoto is at least entertaining.

J.C. Staff's animation quality is shit--especially in comparison to Sakurasou. Obviously dumping all their money into that instead.

It haven't really improved from the first episode, and I'm a bit confused about the order of the routes. And I think the series is too rushed. I hope to see a lot of screentime for Anego since she was my favourite heroine from the game. T have never liked Komari because she's reeally sloow, and Rin was just really, really annoying. So, hoping scrrentime for Anego in the next episodes...
