Wait, that was you in the Little Busters jacket? Huh.

This is getting me excited for Anime Expo, canât wait to go and see what they got in store for us.
ACen Day 2 Recap Added to Above Summary
@SuikaShoujo: Aye, I was in the Little Busters! jacket. Weâve probably passed each other several times, havenât we?
@s0ewhat: If itâs anything like last year, it should be exciting!
@Clannad_Man
I know right! Man im still jelly you got the shiki that Itaru Hinoue drew after the panel.
Lots of interesting tidbits in there. Perhaps the most interesting of all to me is that 1st beat is already half translated. Thatâs impressive, and means we might be getting it quite soon⌠Also, we finally have some kind of reason why Harmonia has been delayed. Sound quality? I wonder what that refers toâŚ
Thanks for the recap Clannad Man! Helps a lot
Oh was Yoshikuni Toyoizumi there? I remember he was at AX last year, but Iâm not sure if he was at ACEN.
Yeah it was a shame they lacked advertising this time around⌠I tried to help by making a detailed explanation of all the goods on our blog but I donât even know if that helped any x.x
Wow goodbye salary for one month hahaha
Makes sense, since most of the overseas crowd is familiar with Key through their anime, after all.
Wow thatâs amazingly sad :â( But what do you expect from Japan and its reliance with physical goods.[quote=âClannad_Man, post:16, topic:2558â]
Baba acknowledged the popularity of Rewrite in foreign markets, though he admitted, âIâm not sure why, thoughâŚâ
[/quote]
Because REWRITE OF THE LIFE MUTHAFUCKAAAA-okay Iâm gonna stop now
Oh wow, here I thought theyâd be a lot bigger, considering they have products sold nationwide and heck internationally now.
This is a bit of a strange wording thingy⌠âHoshi no Funeâ is being advertised as the theme song, but in KSL Live they pretty much specified it as the ending of the hoshi no hito movie so⌠I guess in this context they mean the same thing?
Gee I hope you didnât sweat too much on the first day, then
Yeah that sounds about consistent with what Iâve heard from him back at character1. Itâs a bit sad, but itâs a lot better than releasing it early only to have an inferior product :x
But hey, looks like baba is really stringent about quality, which I find impressive.
Yeah like all those people who up to this day think Rewrite has an âenvironmentalâ message coughcough
Wait wait wtf half?!?! Thatâs an absurdly high number for something that only just got announced in passing holy shit.
After hearing stories about 1st beat, Iâm inclined to disagree with there being no homosexual characters :kyogrin:
But yes, about the new engine, that is very much true. 1st beat is proof enough.
@Aspirety: Glad I could elaborate in some areas. Regarding Harmoniaâs sound quality, I do not have specifics beyond the vagueness of Takahiro Babaâs statement.
As for how I received access to the press event, I applied and was granted press credentials through my involvement with the International Anime Leagueâs network of social media sites. (Does this constitute free advertising here? Haha!) This is the fourth year Iâve earned/maintained press credentials for anime conventions.
@Pepe: I have not seen Yoshikuni Toyoizumi here, though Tomotaka Fujii was present. He continues to serve a role as a marketing/sales representative and is directing all sales activity at the VisualArtâs booth.
âHoshi no Funeâ is being advertised as the theme song, but in KSL Live they pretty much specified it as the ending of the hoshi no hito movie so⌠I guess in this context they mean the same thing?
Probably. Unfortunately, I canât say I have any additional insight; I can only confirm that the phrasing used at the event was âtheme song vocalsâ.
Hm, interesting. Considering that Toyoizumi is kind of the head of marketing (or publication section, whichever youâd like to call it), I wonder if Tomotaka Fujii is heading that field for the overseas events.
@Clannad_Man Oh hi! I thought you looked familiar. I was the rhythm game nerd who was cosplaying Kiso from Kancolle and stood behind you in the line for questions. Sorry I donât like talking very much.
But seriously though, it would be amazing if they added Girls Dead Monster songs to Rocksmith :3
Acen has been gr8 so far. Just 1 more panel, maybe browsing the vendor room a little bit, and then braving the arduous lines at ORD D: Iâll post some pictures of my loot when I get home.
Wish someone wouldâve mentioned HD Little Busters ^^;
Me almost every time.
Being quite a fan of Shinji Orito, I find these two tidbits of info to be quite amusing. I like the art. Itâs cute. :>
And I was pretty sure that Riki and Komari are bi.
In any case, thank you for your recaps! I find it really fun to read, your adventures of getting to know Key staff. Looking forward to the Day 3 recap!!
Give this man a medal for this recap !
Would be a very interesting topic for Key, or Visual Art studioâs to handle (with Plot involved. Not just BL stuff).
This is interesting. So the Kagari route is to make people appreciate the true meaning of Rewrite.
Never thought about a live-action Key work before ! It would be very nice. Do you have the sources for the Chinese Studioâs proposal ?
My guess is that they proposed CLANNAD, Kanon, Air, Tomoyo After, or Little Busters!, is that correct ?? I canât see the other stories being put into live-action without looking cliche.
Sorry if this sounds rude but did anyone ask Baba about the episode count of the Rewrite anime and if no then will anyone do ^^; ?
@Zaydgh98 Stop being such a scavenger for Rewrite details. Seems like youâre asking for more info on the anime in every other post you make on this forum. Key will reveal more when theyâre ready, and weâll be right here ready to report on it. Just sit tight, itâs not long until you can watch it for yourself
sorry bro, I gotta wait for the BD listing I guess, Iâm just too worried T^T
also I wouldnât really call the episode count âdetailsâ since its one of the most important parts
Thatâs why they donât reveal it, duh. And people know they wonât reveal it, so they donât waste time asking stupid questions because the panel obviously expects it and has prepared a vague answer to make people shut up.
I see, but mostly the episode count is indirectly revealed, like Aniplex would post the BD listing for the anime after the 3rd or the 4th episode is out and the number of the BDs will indicate the ep count, there are some rare cases where the creators themselves reveal the ep count very early(like they would say that the anime will air for a half year which means it will be 2 cours or if its a year then 4 cours etcâŚ)
I see why they are leaving it for later but for me personally the waiting for the episode count is making me very anxious rather than excited.
Most of my friends who love Rewrite feel the same, I donât think that anyone would go like âOH BOY I CANâT WAIT TO KNOW THE EPISODE COUNTâ, fans would be excited while waiting for a new PV or a new visual but not the episode count, because its the thing that would make or break the show, this is not something to be excited for, its something that makes everyone worried.
Iâm terribly sorry, Rewrite is a story that changed my life in many positive ways and I love it so much, and I want the anime to be great so I canât stop worrying, I apologize if Iâm troubling you with my stupid rambling.
ACen Day 3 Recap Added to Above Summary
No problem! It seems like a few of us missed each other this time around. Maybe next time weâll all find the time to meet up for a bit.
Isnât it? Bright! Tropical! Orito! ^^
Thank you @Totoro_Futaki! I included just about everything I could remember.
Nope, and I doubt I could get them even if I ask / do some investigating. Frankly I was surprised he even admitted to a proposal being under consideration. I wouldnât expect anything to be unveiled until it is an absolute certainty, and I have serious doubt it will ever get that far. All that we have right now is his statement, which other panel-goers should be able to collaborate. I also donât know what series is under consideration.
Nope, nor did anyone ask about HD assets in Little Busters!. Sorry guys.
As much as I share your sentiments about the episode count, I personally think itâs a useless question to ask. Why? Because even if you donât ask, youâll find out eventually. And if you ask about it and complain about it, no amount of complaining will change the fact: the producers and staff have already set it in stone with budget and plans.
That being the case I think more useful questions were things that they wouldnât say unless asked, like the discussion they had about how their company works, or even the status of the AB localization, which is some good information.
So, yeah, even if nobody asks, just be patient. Whether you find out now or later when they announce the blu-rays, I donât see it making a difference for you, me, or anybody else.
