Awwwww man smug face Nao-nao is the bestest~ Hyyyyype XD
I see so many… expressions.
What’s up with that Joujirou creepy blush? Is he… that?
Otosaka’s jerkiness is 1000% confirmed jerk.
Nao has the most colorful range of expression. Love it!

He’s probably watching Yusa perform or something… probably…
Does seem like a creeper, yeah. Like a creepy fanboy… HOW CAN I SHIP THEM WHEN HE HAS THAT EXPRESSION DX<
It’s interesting how expressive Nao-Nao is in various concepty sketches but always completely lacks an expression in all the big artworks.

Well she is smiling in the latest big artworks, so that’s a thing
http://charlotte-anime.jp/ Hoooly shit everyone, looks like some sort of bomb is going to drop. It’s in 2 hours, and it seems to reference hikikomori and the comeback of something… BUT WTF IS UP WITH THAT BLOODY HANDYCAM
So yeah, this is the website update that I was talking about in the article: http://kazamatsuri.org/everything-we-know-about-charlotte/

Holy mackerel maaan, is this just an April’s fools joke they always come up with, or does Hikikomori no Uta actually have something to do with Charlotte… Or Key will turn Higurashi mode or something…
Either way I’m gonna stay up until the clock hit 1 April in Japan.
If you haven’t been following, Key’s idea of “April Fools” is an excuse to reveal crazy news that will actually happen. Whether or not it’s a joke, I am surely excited for this
No, their announcement on April Fools is not always happening.
Take Rewrite for example. They announced Rewrite on 2008 April Fools. Turned out it’s real.
Later they made this announcement on 2010
making Rewrite into “Sexy!” a.k.a. Ekusutashiiii or R-18
But one year later they published Rewrite anime OP, which turned out really used for Rewrite VN.
So it could be real, it could be not real. Let’s just wait, it’s not that long anymore.
I did not know about that one. Looks like I’m the one who wasn’t following as well as you were; I apologize ^_^;;;
I’m currently reading and re-reading info about Charlotte… And I can’t help but to feel that there’s a connection between Charlotte and AB. — From a commercial point of view, it would make sense I guess. New (huge) VN and Charlotte anime… (angel beats spoiler) it may be something different tan AB, but it looks like it might be a computer generated simulation thing (ala AB). Supernatural powers might mean “powers” like in AB… and the blood they’ve included right now on their website might hint that there would be “deads”… but in Key’s style (again, ala Angel Beats!).
Besides, why Jun Maeda’s song along with the AB ad on the video?
Finally, I feel that hikikomori would definetly be one of the major topic / metaphor in Charlotte’s story.

I hate you so so much right now Key
;_;
Like, sure, even if Jun Maeda was gonna make a band with a tour and everything, this has nothing to do with charlotte
I have heard of the name Kimella,it’s one the possible candidate for Charlotte title.They talked about in the radio.
I dunno, there seems to be so much old info about kimella: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm8416785
Maybe it’s a running gag with Key or something?
Charlotte actually has nothing to do with Angel Beats! too…
Also, just like ZHIEND is badly romanized “The End”, Kimella is a badly romanized “Chimaera” I think.
Good for Maeda, but seriously I did not expect that at all. Utterly disappointed.
Apparently the other guys is known as Nakagawa Taisei alias “Nakagawa-kun”, Maeda’s best buddy during college era.
I would have been excited that they plan to do a tour, but then I saw “Tokyo Dome” and called bullshit
Well that was the only connection I can think of between the two.
Back to the actual Charlotte dissuasion,what does this say ?

I think it says something about the first PV is set for release in the official site on 2nd April
PLUS there’s something on 1st April too…
But I cannot comprehend Japanese fully so maybe I missed the translation.

I want to know the part if it said the pv will use original drawing but there won’t be voiced or something like that.
I don’t get why do Japanese anime companies take so long to announce the number of episodes. Seriously, for some animes this is announced after it starts. It just hope Charlotte doesn’t take this long.
Something I’ve been thinking about: could Charlotte be a shounen series? It looks kinda shounen-ish. Sometimes the borderline between shounen and seinen is kinda thin. But maybe Charlotte is Key’s first work targeted shounen. And P.A. Works has made shounen series too.
