Are all the oldfags who read Planetarian in 2005 dead now? The anime rolls this week and I haven't heard shit on Sup Forums about it.

Back in 2009 Sup Forums talked about it all time, but as an example of something that should have but never, ever would get an adaptation.

Also, I don't always buyfag but when I do it'll be a Yumemi figure.

I'm not an oldfag but I've read it.

I think it's been exactly 10 years since I've read it. Looking forward to it with caution. Yumemi a cute.

>showing Junkers face
Absolutely terrible.tif

>The anime rolls this week and

Holy shit what? I've been mostly out of the loop because real life business blah blah blah, but I can't believe it.

If this is true then you just made my day user. I loved this so much. Even though I've forgotten most of the details about what happened in it, I still remember the emotions.

There were a lot of people talking about it when it was announced on April 1st.

I didn't even like the game, but I'm looking forward to the anime. I have feeling it's going to be nice.

>If this is true then you just made my day user.

I bring happiness to all who surround me. OVA series starts on the 7th and then there's a movie in September.

Planetarian was the second or third VN I ever read, around 5 years ago now. I'm most definitely excited to cry again.

I once had a girlfriend who liked the game as much as I did. Both of us stopped watching anime years ago but I came back to Sup Forums for this. Wonder if she heard the news.

Wow, thank you. I could almost cry right now. This is almost like when I discovered we'd be getting more Aria.

>Planetarian
>Aria

You sound like a gentleman. What else do you watch?

Watch out. It could go like Berserk did.

Nah, it's already been proven to have at least average visuals.

>Obscure, short, non-interactive VN from 12 years ago gets typical anime adaptation

>Oldest, most popular, best-drawn, ongoing manga series of all time gets Food Fight tier adaptation

I kinda don't want to watch it because it might tarnish my good memories of it.

I know, I shouldn't assume too much just yet, but I'm an optimist, on the surface.

Don't get your hopes up. Desu, not really watching anything right now but did finish the Boku no Hero Academia anime. Currently reading Murenase Shiiton Gakuen and Criminale. I'm about to start the Rewrite VN but I have a creeping suspicion I'll just drag it on and drop it since I can't really dedicate that much time to it.

What I'm spending time on currently is actually VR. I'm pretty deep in it as a journalist, and also as a student hoping to make something great in the future. I've actually wished for Aria and Planetarian to be sort of re-imagined at least partially in VR for a many years now, though that's probably not what I'm going to pursue doing myself.

When the current VR tech surfaced a few years ago, I was ecstatic, and then I tried it, and it felt like my dreams were finally within reach, because the tech truly does give you give you a glimpse into what quality VR could be like, it's that good (but also early in the development cycle). There's truly a glitter of hope in life I believe that will give us great things, it's what has gotten me into all of this after my years of not really knowing what to do with myself while consuming Japanese content. Ironically, it was those times that have influenced me to do what I'm doing now.

Sorry for the blog posting, I'm just very passionate about VR right now and today with this news has my blood flowing.

That sounds fascinating. What did you do before getting into VR stuff?

Is it getting released weekly?

I was a student, which is why I had so much free time to waste. And also why my grades weren't great either, I couldn't get myself to care for them enough. I was mostly a hollow shell with no real emotions or meaning in my life, but of course things have changed a lot since then for me. Now I'm 22 years old, and I have a vision, a path that I'm looking forward to taking. Maybe I'm pathetic, but I honestly think Sup Forums and Japanese cartoons have influenced my life for the better here.

>The anime rolls this week

I wonder who's going to sub it.

If anyone at all that is.

Crunchyroll?
FUNi?

I hope they won't turn this into a moeshit romcom.

The VN - as entry level as it is - was really beautiful.

Right.

I forgot fansubbing has been long dead.

Live-eviL is still around.

There's also some new meat on the block, like Mori.

I think the problem is that fansubbers waste their time on shows already dealt with by Crunchy/Funi.

>L-E
Barely. Don't pick up new stuff, or even if, they're slower than learning Japanese yourself. Literally.
>Mori
Less active now because life.
>I think the problem is that fansubbers waste their time on shows already dealt with by Crunchy/Funi.
They don't touch Funi as much, because they have to OCR the script and can't just easily copy the timing. A shame, because Funi are the least watchable official subs.

When is this airing again?

>hopping on the VR bandwagon
I feel bad for you, man. It's 100% a gimmick, all of the actually important hardware isn't even close to being attainable, and even if it was, it'd be out of reach of consumers for decades.

That's why all the headsets are vastly overpriced, because they want to make as much money as possible off the tiny minority that actually care about VR in its current state. It does nothing for 95% of games, and the 5% it's useful in are niche as hell with most fans far more content to play more realistic decade old games over the new stuff that might support VR.

It's as dumb as owning a 3D TV.

You do realize you're wasting your time posting that right?

It's technology in its early stages. Just look at history. It's full of examples of technology that was previously thought to be too expensive and unfeasible, but then took the world by a storm. Like small hand held computers that allows every person to watch porn anywhere and anytime you want.

>It's as dumb as owning a 3D TV.

I fucking hate them. VR isn't as stupid, though I bet the common VR usage will turn out differently from what we thought.

>Like small hand held computers that allows every person to watch porn anywhere and anytime you want.
I had one back in 2000, it didn't take off.

What took off was the internet, and smartphones were just the vehicles of choice for normies because they were already paying out the ass for contracts, and computers are those weird things they use at their jobs or at school with lots of scary complex inputs and options.

For every super expensive piece of hardware that became commonplace in every home, there are dozens that failed horribly. Videophones are now basically a reality that was first implemented back in the 60s, and yet nobody fucking uses video chat because it's not convenient and doesn't add anything to the call. It costs absolutely nothing, yet people still vastly prefer to talk the traditional way with the receiver to their ear.

If VR takes off in any form, it'll be a standardised iPhone version of Google Cardboard with a tie-in Netflix service to provide 3D movies. It won't be games, and it won't be the high end computer headsets. What's more likely is that it'll be ignored until AR is ready, and then everyone will walk around with ads being displayed on every surface ala Dennou Coil.

By the way, none of these people posting are me. And I'd love to talk about VR all day, but frankly I already kind of do that and I'd rather not do it for the tired arguments you're bringing up. You probably don't have anything new to add that no one else has said before, I've seen it all, really. So yeah, don't bother, this isn't the time or place for a longer discussion about VR. Let's just return to talking about Planetarian.

I didn't even realize it was getting an anime until this thread.

I'm sorry you're too blinded by the fantasy world of "what ifs" to look at reality.

Let's pretend PSVR is somehow a runaway success, and has an insane 10% attachment rate. Note that previous gimmicks, such as the Move and Kinect, sold around 10-20%, but they were well under half the price of VR at launch, and pretty sharply after you could get them for a quarter of that cost.

No real dev is going to make a game where your potential install base is a tenth of the already limited console exclusive market. It makes zero sense economically. They might knock out a tech demo in a weekend.

And before you say "well, they can just convert a regular game to VR", that only works for cockpit games, and they'll have to contend with optimising for a higher framerate.

The ED is cute. CUTE!

The official website also is pretty modern compared to usual japanese websights

thanks for letting me know OP. I tried to get the VN working like 10 minutes ago but ouldn't, i think i'll just watch the anime instead

Planetarian gives me bad memories of a failed relationship. I don't think I can watch this without those buried feeling spilling out.

I've played this nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=338222 and it just werks using applocale and following the readme to get the voiced version.

Question - how many people who liked Planeterian also liked Plastic Memories?

NIce, but no happy end]

ATASHI NO SECRET BUTTON

I liked both of them, though obviously not to the same degree.

How long does it take to "play" Planetarium?

I tried it years ago, but gave up. I'm not good with VNs.

It's like 4 hours on autoplay, if you take it easy and do few chapters a day it shouldn't be an issue

What, I had never imagined the junker would look like that

Her voice is different from what I imagined, but still quite nice. Who's the VA?

I read it last month just in case the anime is shitty. Not an oldfag obviously.

I liked Planetarian but Plastic Memories was really fucking stupid at points. The MC is also garbage compared to the Junker.

Heathens, those who did not believe.

The same, just 12 years older

What about Eden* ? The story is longer but same lever rate... But no one will ever animate it!

Because Key

Jesus, it's this week? I need to get a move on and read the VN already...

There are also the drama CDs
