Operation Countdown on Angel Beats' official website

So a friend of mine just posted about the Angel Beats’ official website: http://www.angelbeats.jp/ and it looks like they have started an Operation Countdown! As of posting, there are 22 hours and 35 minutes left in the countdown. From calculations it seems that they are going to reveal something on 2014/12/09 20:00:00, Japan time. The timer uses system time so it’s gonna be a bit inconsistent

The hype train is moving!

tfw you just wake up and find this with only 7 hours left… the hype is too much

7 hours? It’s still 22 hours for me :o

I’m seeing 6 hours and 50 minutes right now.

Looks like the timer might be based on system time rather than a specific timezone which is odd. The timer is set to 2014/12/09 20:00:00 and that’s 6 hours and 50 minutes away for me, which is what the timer says. So let’s just go with what Pepe says since he’s the one living in Japan.
Although I don’t know I’m confused lol

Pretty funny that they decided to use system time haha

Tried modifying my system time and the timer just went to 0 and stopped. So I guess we just have to wait for tomorrow :stuck_out_tongue: Will put the date in the opening post

Hmm, it’s an unannounced considering they said they would release news about the VN on the 27th. Damn this has me on the edge of my seat…

Japan pulls this shit all the time. Since the intended audience is Japanese people, and they only have one time zone over there, they figure they can just use system time instead :stuck_out_tongue:

Nihonjin privilege.

I guess this means that it isn’t going to be an announcement for a simultaneous English release, then :<

How troll would it be if this wasn’t an announcement for the visual novel?

Well it’s on the official website of the anime (not the VN) so there’s a chance that it isn’t :stuck_out_tongue:

How troll would it be if they announced “Hey, if you didn’t know, Angel Beats! is gonna get a VN (release date still TBA)”

My bet is they’re going to announce an Heaven’s Door adaptation. Considering the hype over the VN, it’s probably the best time to release another project for the franchise.

It’s obviously another mobile game.

Skype shit: Anyways I’m very perplexed about it being on the anime site as well.
[12:39:03 PM] Bizkitdoh: I see a few possible things.
[12:39:31 PM] Bizkitdoh: Most reasonable is that, regardless of news, the usage of that domain is so they can have a standalone site.
[12:39:48 PM] Bizkitdoh: A project this large being only a section of the VA site is kinda lame.
[12:40:08 PM] Bizkitdoh: Because it’s not just VA, it’s everything. Manga, anime, VN.
[12:42:30 PM] Bizkitdoh: Anyways
[12:42:40 PM] Bizkitdoh: The way that timer is set up screams release date to me
[12:42:53 PM] Bizkitdoh: Like at 0, it sets to mm/dd/15. Would be hot
[12:43:10 PM] Bizkitdoh: Or I guess for jp it’d be dd/mm/15…?
[12:43:56 PM] Bizkitdoh: That’d be my hopes anyways. A release schedule.
[12:44:03 PM] Bizkitdoh: Bigger hopes- A PV.
[12:44:35 PM] Bizkitdoh: And biggest- A full site relaunch. Full info, release schedule, PV, swag- the works.

A Heaven’s Door anime would be amazing, however that series is still incomplete so… At the very least an OVA series could begin and just go bit by bit at an abnormal pace leading up to releases. We shall see…

Am i the only one who can’t access the site now? D:
Edit: oh, forget it.

A serie of OVAs for Heaven’s Door would be fine, and I don’t think there’s much of the manga left.

Hype is real!!!

I dont know anything about Heavens Door, but considering what Mary_Vanucchi said, I can see it being an anime adaption releasing in Summer of Fall 2015.

woo that would be huge :o, Im really dont know anything about heavens door either, but im super excited what its gonna be :3.

SO you’re telling me that my counter that says 3 hours is really more like 13 hours!? Uhhggg… guess I’m getting up early tomorrow…

BUT anyways at this point, I really don’t care what we get anymore. Unless of course it’s an ABOW announcement, then I might pull all my hair out. But an new anime would be brilliant, a VN update, well, somehow I’m actually doubting its a VN update, with both being on the anime site, and there already being a preview of an announcement. But like I said, no matter what, hype.
