Old news.

It'll suck probably, but I have no idea how they're affording all those star VAs...

[Raijinili]

I don't think it's old news.
Well there was a trailer by this group a long time ago but there hadn't been any news until like... Recently.

At least I only heard of it recently so maybe it was announced a while ago.

I am totally expecting a cease and desist or something coming out of this.

This makes ZUN awesome, by the way.

[Raijinili]

I hope it'll be stopped, I Really dislike the anime idea, A LOT
And yeah pretty old news XD

And they look fat, my dear patchoulli looks weird

Not sure if ZUN can give a cease and desist. I'm not sure how copyright works in Japan but I know it's different then the US (i.e. SRW could never happen in the US due to all the bloody copyrights involved)

It's "old news" in that the anime trailer was made some years/months ago but it hadn't been updated since. Only now did we get a list of the VAs and details.

It did. Look up Super Robot Taisen.

One that is actually full of the billion mechas from other things (exaggeration on numbers).

[Raijinili]

"One of the more convincing arguments on offer is that this is indeed a case of ZUN starting to get delusions of grandeur, or possibly simply becoming upset that his games, and thus his influence, have been eclipsed."

Like the writer didn't make it obvious enough what he believes. God, this "reporting" makes me so irritated. It's like reading the newspapers all over again.

[Raijinili]

Bias sucks? Is that the right word? I think it is... Everyone is a little biased anyway.

Though bloggers and stuff seem to be more so...

[Raijinili]

It's just that when you're writing a professional article, you should at least TRY to make it balanced.

[Raijinili]

Good point.
But too many bloggers prefer to just give their view and pass it off as the 'correct' one.

[Raijinili]

That article made ZUN look like an asswipe.
He was expressing concern with this partner etc.

Well the anime is out, it's actually bearable...wow
But Suika goes out to buy sake :U

[Raijinili]

Slice of life is very boring.

The only remotely interesting part was the fight between Reimu and Patchy, but even then that was botched by a non-epic Royal Flare and frilly-bloomers Reimukick.

[Raijinili]

It was meh I guess.

Not really BAD, just meh. Surprised at the production values for a doujin release.
