I think this episode is the best so far, because here, they brought out Kuragaya's characteristic really well. If I were to pick out one thing I don't like, then it would be Haruka role in this episode. In the vn, she describe the scenario of her opening the book during class and how all her classmates stared at her. For some reason, I was laughing so hard. It was well paced in the vn, but for the anime, it seems a bit rush through. Overall I love this ep

Nice episode
I like Kurugaya, she's better than I thought she would be :)
And I saw Kud in the preview. Wonder what kind of character she is, everyone seems to like her :)

Holy Crap, I find it extremely hard to tolerate the graphics and animation quality, IMO its like the worst out of all the animes airing. This episode I can see the slides... Seriously JC WTF??...

Kurugaya's character design is shit...


If you cant tolerate the animation then just dont watch it. No one is forcing you to watch it


I think many people like Little Busters, but they just can't enjoy it fully with the current level of visuals. And it's a waste to drop it just because the animation and art suck...

LOL yeah I remember that part from the VN. I agree, they should've had her describe the aura coming from the book and the stares from her classmates.

Ignoring the person who always compare about animation which is really unnecessary.



It seems on the next episode:

1. Mix of Rin's arc and Komari's arc.
2. Kud's introduction.

But you guys act as if this is the worst animation offender you've seen in the history of anime. It's not even the worst this season. Maybe you shall cry for the bullcrap Manglobe is doing on Hayate no Gotoku, to the point those fans want JC to animate Hayate again.

Pretty great episode! Kurugaya is awesome and the battle with Masato was hilarious. Finally seeing Haruka was great, too! Also, I thought that Riki was especially adorable in this episode. Seriously, Riki is a cutie.

Nope. I know next to nothing about EX other than the fact that there are 3 new routes + h scenes.

Well, either way, I don't think we will see her story. And if it is longer then the other girls', then I'd rather it be that way.

Yep. But if it'll be a single OVA about Saya, it'll be butchered her whole story. I believe adapting her path is good for 5 episodes at least.

If she's a cameo at all it's because they realize they HAVE to have her there somewhere to abate the fans somewhat.

Seems entertaining so far I guess. Some of the character voices seem a little bit weird but that's just me I guess.

I'm trying to say "if they'll adapt her story in the future whether it's a series or what" and not including her story in this 2-cour series which I think you misunderstand what I said.

Not to ruin the fun or anything, but just because we see some blond hair of a character hidden behind someone does NOT mean it is Saya. It's probably just a random background character. If it is her, I doubt she'll be in the actual series. Maybe an OVA if we're lucky. Here's why it probably won't be here:

Her route requires you to know what happens in the visual novel. In EX you are asked if you know the secret of the world. Saying no you don't get to see her route, saying yes you do. They could really only show her route AFTER the show finishes, meaning it would be an OVA. Doing so before would spoil what happens towards the end of the series in Refrain, and in Refrain there are no real character routes since Refrain is a route itself. So there is no place for her route to take place.

But again, knowing her route will mean you know how the series ends (either from playing the VN or reading a spoiler) and they just do NOT have time or place to do it. Like with LB EX, her and the two other girls' routes are just extras. They aren't part of the main story because they cannot fit (at least Saya's).



About disagreeing that wasn't Saya, It's really Saya. Maybe JC Staff planned to have her cameo appearance every episode. Her hair accessory is already your hint. And of course, even she got a cameo appearance, it doesn't mean she'll interact to the main casts of LB or be a part of this series.

Plus, you won't really spoiled about Refrain if you played Saya's path first. You'll just get mindfucked because you haven't get much information.

About EX paths are just extras,

1. Kanata's path somewhat a continuation of Haruka's path.
2. Sasami's path is a plot material just like Kurugaya's but you'll gain more knowledge about the secret of the world.
3. Saya's path involves everything related to the secret of the world.

Clannad, Kanon, Angel Beats (except Air which has nothing more than 2 main protagonists) were all interesting in several first episodes, even if they were at introduction. Now what do we have? Episode 3 and still, random bland + boring comedy. Dunno if you have watched any decent comedy anime, you would know that these "comedy" were lame and not attractive at all in LB!

I know. Even I played LB VN for the first time, your thoughts were exactly the same as mine.

But it can't be help since they're still introducing the characters. Whether the gags are good or not.

im still looking for something that will surprise me. So far everything has been below my expectations. The animation is kay , characters have been kay, Haruka's voice did feel a little different from the game though . Really sad that i didnt laugh as i did in the game . Masato's tadaima was way better in the game. Then again animation is harder so whatever, its still enjoyable for me . Keep it up JC.

I simply couldn't agree more, though TBH, the first few episodes of Clannad were kinda light, too, at the start.

Nevertheless, I want to say that Refrain compensates for all the light-hearted humor at the start of the series, not to mention that the more teary parts in each character's route were actually worth playing for, too.

Speaking of which... OMG THEY ARE FINALLY STARTING KOMARI'S ROUTE KOMARI-YAY-YAY!!!!

Ahem. Sorry. Had to put that out there. Komari-max FTW.

Well, in fact, Clannad gags are way more hilarious that it gave the energy in the beginning than this so I don't react about his complaints about the beginning in LB.

The "mindfucked" part is why she won't be there. Like Leon-Gun said, she isn't a classmate and there is NO WHERE she can fit in the story, meaning I doubt she's really canon. I mean JC Staff COULD do it since fucking things up is what they do, and mindfucking everyone wouldn't be too surprising but... on a serious note I just really doubt it. I've played the entire VN (regular, not EX) and I know how Saya is related so I know she won't be here if they use even a shred of intelligence when making this series.

I just wish her fans would read these posts and realize why she can't be in it. Nice to know about the other two routes though. Never knew that, although it makes sense. I never really cared much for EX.

I find the first few episodes of Clannad REALLY boring. And I'm finding Little Busters! to be REALLY interesting and fun to watch. It's all about opinion. You obviously thought Clannad was interesting and LB! is boring, I'm the opposite.

Quit bitching and either watch the show or drop it.

I already know there is nowhere she can fit in the story. What I'm just saying is Refrain and Saya's path aren't related except you'll gain information about the Refrain.

So that's why you won't get spoiled if you took Saya first before Refrain but you'll get mindfucked that you can't understand what's going on because you haven't got the information about the secret on Refrain.

Ah I see, then it might be nice if they do include her in roles but a OVA might be part of her deal. Perhaps a tease of her role they might incur and then OVA resumes from that part.

Who knows.

The introduction of two new characters kept me entertained well enough for this episode, but the methods and pace at which the new characters join still seem to be a bit bland and slow imo. In other words, I'd like them to mix things up a bit more, thankfully this is only the beginning though, so I get why it's a bit slow.

lol your not the only one. I'm even too scared to even read some posts on here since I'm afraid some ass will include major spoilers without spoiler tags.

I have that feeling about Kud too. I've had two instances where I good a "Awesome Sensor Vibe" for characters before I watched the anime. Index - Misaka Mikoto and Gintama - Shimura Shinpachi. Both occupy spaces on my top 10 now. Kud gives me a "Awesome Sensor Vibe"

The animation is fine now but I suspect it will increase once the introductions are over and the drama kicks in.

Don't get me wrong, I complain and drop shows that I don't like too, but sticking with every episode only to say how bad it is (sometimes without good argument) is just ridicules.

And to the people who says that the animation sucks. You clearly haven't watch enough anime to know when the animation really sucks.

This week in LB thread, people bitching about the animation or comparing it to other KEY anime (but still watching it anyway, I wonder why) and fans that are overzealously defending it. Nothing new... Why there's (almost) no middle ground between, I wonder?

Haven't really liked Kurugaya (yet) even in the VN (so far), so it's an okay episode I think. My actual complain is why Haruka's voice changed a lot when she's voiced with the same seiyuu.

Pacing worsen again compared to ep. 2, but well it's still acceptable. The real problem is the next episode, since they seems like to start introducing arcs.
