Just read the first 3 chapters of the manga, gotta say its way better than I expected and i'm hoping for a good adaptation....also it isnt as generic as you would think, kinda hope it turns out to be as surprisingly good as Sakurasou no Pet na Kanajo

He just copied and pasted it from an /a/ topic it looks like. I saw the same stuff there.

symbv, I follow the rule of always using the original order of the original language ("write it like they'd say it"), particularly when discussing it in a specific context like here, where it's a Japanese animation website talking about Japanese seiyuu.

Personally I'd prefer the original order of the original language too, though I can see the point of converting the order into the English convention (as it is the traditional way anyway and I expect is still most people in the west expect to see). So I really don't mind either way. Problem arises when two conventions are used at the same time, like the post I commented on here. It would be extremely confusing to anyone who read it, and they have no way to double-check if they do not read Japanese anyway -- and by such can create additional confusion when these people go on and pass the information around. At the end no one knows what the last name of the staff, seiyuu and characters are.

Is it just me, or is the quality of art increasing in anime nowadays?

^ Bippo, wonder why you use Last Name, First Name convention for the English translation of the staff but use First Name, Last Name convention for the English translation of the cast/character names (except Yuuki Aoi and Totsuka Saika somehow)?

To be honest, I am confused as to which convention to use. I can see a tendency to use Last Name, First Name convention in some anime forum/blogs for seiyuu names but of course the general standard is to stick to the English way of First Name, Last Name convention. I wonder if there is a standard that people follow.

If Shinbou is actually directing it, that means to me that its a Shaft anime. I can't see him doing anything thats not Shaft, since he IS Shaft.

Hm. When is the last time Shinbou worked outside of Shaft? Only Madoka 1st comes to mind right now.

Of course Madoka is from Shaft. For work outside Shaft for Shinbo, I would say it goes back to 2004 when he directed Nanoha and Le Portrait de Petit Cossette.

Rumors on 2ch saying Shinbo Akiyuki (madoka) is directing it.

I can't read moon, but people are saying that this scan says its KyoAni. Can anyone confirm it?

The youtube video made it look far less generic than the description, I'm interested.
