yay, /k/-on

K-ON + Full Metal Panic = ???

>A-1
lol

The first chapter of the manga is out by the way. Paraphrased 2ch comment "Expected cancer, got awesome". Supposedly quite plot heavy.

Does anybody know if scans exist and where to find them? I don't have access to Share so I haven't checked there. Its in the january issue of Dengeki Moeoh if that helps any. Author is Yagi Shinba.

aw man can't wait for the cake eating and tea drinking

Not like K-ON, you say.

I will totally watch it anyway.

>ykk or aria
...
fuck it then. will watch when it comes out.

FUCK YEAH K-ON! SEASON 2!

I'd be hyped for this just for the music.

2 AM? HUH?!

everyone is at war but we in our fortress have fun because fun things are fun

Welcome to anime.

Interestingly its new Anime no Chikara timeslot is on monday. Finally show to look farward to on the worst day of the week.

The episode one info on the official site already has more plot than all of K-ON combined.

Town legends & war back story, Kanata childhood memories, aqueduct repairing and so on.

>>28754839
I'm really hoping it won't end up like this.

I'm still hoping for it to have some plot instead of lol trumpets n' tea.

A slaughterhouse end would be nice :3

anyone else hear yui's voice in the pv? i mean i know she's not seiyu but i still hear it...

Nobody here using share?

I'd love to read the manga ;_;

>>28755028
Nah, Yui sounds way different.

habaine renmei with mechs? SIGN ME THE FUCK UP. JESUS CHRIST WHEN DOES THIS SHIT MUFFIN COME OUT SO I CAN PREPARE MY ORGASM CHAMBER.

FUCK.

>>28755128
They are an artillery platoon, it might be just that.

>>28754972

Fuck yeah.

I'm hoping for "a marauding enemy band ransacks their outposts and brutally kills everyone" ending.

>>28754832
>2 AM

There goes their ratings.

Didn't this show have a male protagonist?

>>And no, despite the art similarities this will probably not be like K-ON, it has a plot for starters. The most likely comparison is something like Haibane Renmei, YKK or ARIA.

You bastard, getting my hopes up like that.

I'm calling it now - This show is going to be painfully derp. Probably as derp as Haibane Shitmei

>>28755236
Didn't stop K-ON from being popular as hell. And there is hardly any competition on monday compared to the usual thursday-sunday slots.

>>28755245
No. There are two male side characters (local orphan shota and a middle aged army supplier) listed on the official site though.

Oh god the backgrounds.
I'm sold.

>>28755236
> implying people (if you can call otaku human) who are going to watch this need to get up early to go to work or school.

OH U

>>28755236

Ratings mean almost nothing to shows outside of prime time

>Haibane Renmei

Sold.

I kind of threw up in my mouth.

>Oh by the way this show has a !!! mecha designer !!!

I can't wait for the shit storms on /m/, it'll be like Strike Witches all over again!

>>28755252
Every piece of promotional material screams sadness and melancholy. And its from the director/screenwriter that brought us Elfen Lied and Mai Hime.

I doubt they will do a simple K-ON type of show with that.

It's so easy to drop shows with shitty character designs, I don't have to bother watching them.

>>28755424
bleh... if it's not a comedy i'm giving it a miss

The castle where this happens was like 50 km away from the spot where we made a class trip once.

Damn it.

>>28755424
That's not the point.
Comparing it to three of my favourites is just cheating. If this doesn't live up to its hype I'm going to be completely heartbroken.

Best animal sidekick of the season.

I like how people are comparing it to K-ON just because of the character designs.

You guys are fucking idiots.

>>28755686
Its similar to K-On, Kannagi, Haruhi 2, Seiken Blacksmith and the upcoming Working!! from A1 also uses this style.

It just stems from the fact that the designer @ A1 worked under the designer at KyoAni and they have very similar styles.

>>28755786
>K-On, Kannagi, Haruhi 2, Seiken Blacksmith
No wonder those shows are shit

>>28755786

I know, but that doesn't mean it will BE like K-ON, as in a slice of life comedy.

I mean how long have people been watching anime?

So which scanslator groups can we pester to translate the first chapter of the manga? This really needs to get translated.

I do think it will share some similarities with K-ON, such as slice of life aspects.

But there will definitley something more behind it.

This is going to be like K-on meets Now and Then Here and There.

I have no idea what the entails, I'm just calling it.

>>28756063
As long as we get "batshit soldier's room of rape" scene I'm fine with it

>>28756115
>batshit soldier's room of rape
Lol wut

Pulling an Everybody Dies™ end would be pretty hilarious but I doubt it will happen.

I expect a melancholic "The girls' lively brass music is the last sign of life in a dieing world" kind of plot.

>>28756165
You should watch Now And Then, Here And There.

>>28756255
Eh, Now and Then, Here and There was sickening. Good show, but really really depressing.

I hope this is more about baww inducing bittersweet melancholy.

Oh god, I'm looking forward to this now.

DEM BACKGROUNDS

Show of the Winter season.

>>28756341
At least the ending was pretty cheerful, all things considered.

>>28756408
I wouldn't call "Rape victim decides to have the baby" a happy end..

>>28756408

It was more bittersweet than happy to me, what with Lalaru's death and sun gonna splodey soon and all.

so when does this air?

>>28757044

Soon.

Rio: yuu Kobayahi


YEEEESSSSSSSSS.
officially on my must watch tier.

>>28757044
4th January

>>28757044
4th of January.

Monday after new years.

>>28756507
Would you call "Aborting him with a fucking ROCK" happy?

Also, I don't remember anything about the sun exploding..

This show just went from "maybe" to "fuck yeah"

>>28754693
>Implying Aria had a plot.

Stri/k/e-On?

>>28757349

The sun is near the end of its life, or so the premise states. Don't know by how many years but humanity won't last for too much longer.

Looks awesome.

/k/-on

>>28757533
This is why people should have invested in NASA and "useless" programs like that.

>>28757480
Well that didn't take too long.

So its something that won't be like K ON but will still be like K ON, with a lot of talent and a big budget, plus, a plot.

Oh boy this sounds exiting and I hope it manages to be a big success it would open the possibilities for different moeblob shows.

On one side it needs to have some things like cute girls, no boys, music, etc to be a potential hit moe moe show but it if they also get good action designs and a plot it would widen the audience range, give us overall better products with more depth.
Not depth like DEEP shit but depth like more things to look forward in them, not just the cute girls being cute and that's cool I like that but also other interesting things.

It could also help expanding the genre, making it all feel less repetitive and resulting in more enjoyable anime.

>>28757533
qeue the star trek inner light theme

Watching because FRECKLES.

>>28757480
Oh fuck you

>>28757594
>no boys
I have news for you.

>>28757670

That's clearly a man, not a boy.

Reverse Lain hair? I not sure how i feel about this

>>28757702
Fine, here.

>>28757670
Looks like the cool old veteran, not a love interest constantly hanging out with the girls harassing them.

>>28757670
That's the new store clerk

>>28757594

That sounds nice.

Too bad the majority of /a/ will look at the designs and instantly dismiss going "MOESHIT" and crying about the "death" of the anime industry (a cry that's been shouted every year, yet the world didn't end).

I don't have high hopes and you shouldn't either.
