All the endings are cannon though. If you don't get the 8 timestones then how does takuya go to the other world?

>>15125613

You sure that's Yu-No and not some SAO-shit cover?

>>15128719

Yeah, nevermind the fact about how they'll handle the sex scenes.

>>15128781

They'll skip those parts. Eroge anime adaptations are notorious for that shit, look up Princess Lover (Which has a hentai OVA) and Walkure Romanze

>posting on the no fun allowed board

well well well if isnt the walking fucking libido… how this is so popular?

>>15128787

then it wont be an anime about the walking libido, just another thing

>>15128719

Yeah but if you go back and replay it after you finish the epilogue you can get different endings with some of the girls.

What's infamous about it?

>>15128930

Incest and borderline cannibalism. Technically the you eat isn't human, but it looks human, at least by the time you eat it.

>>15128964

*the thing you eat

>Steins;gate didn't do very well

huh

>>15125613

>VN where every waifu bar one gets raped

>is universally praised for whatever reason

I'll never understand cucks and their tastes.

>>15128922

In each one, Takuya muses on how the ending is one possible future for him.

So maybe all the endings are canon?

What I never understood is: what happens to all the timelines that Takuya warps out of? In one of Kanna's route endings, where the only way out is using a Jewel Save or restarting the map, Ayumi theorizes that once the player-controlled Takuya warps out, another will replace him immediately. However, this is never shown in-game.

As much as I love the original designs, I do think they need to be remade in any remake. They're all just too 90s. Then again, that might just be the art-style.

I don't mind most of the changes except for Takuya and Yuuki. Yuuki just looks like a fuccboi, and Takuya doesn't reflect his personality at all. I always imagined him to look and act like Yusuke Urameshi, but with a sexual sense of humor.

I can't see it going well. It's one of the best VNs ever made, possibly the best. It's not designed to be an anime and there's gonna be some pretty big sacrifices on it. Who is the staff on the project?

>>15129682

someone got hoihoi'd

>>15128802

Looks gay.

>>15130772

>too 90's

How is that a fucking problem?

>>15130775

> It's not designed to be an anime and there's gonna be some pretty big sacrifices on it.

I think it could work. I lost several hours of sleep in Mitsuki/Eriko's and Kanna/Kaori's routes because I kept wanting to see what would happen next. I also loved how details in one route answered mysteries in another.

There's plenty of mystery, intrigue, and interesting characters to make an engrossing anime with.

I'd like to see the memory less phenomenon explored in the series. Typically, Takuya loses all memory when a reset happens, and when using a jewel save, but in some endings he shows to have a lingering memory of the timeline's events. Other times, having an item he isn't supposed to jogs his memory; and in Kaori's route, he seems to remember everything.

At Triangle Mountain, Ryuuzouji implies he can experience deja-vu and realize when a timeline is repeating itself.

>>15130802

It's 2018. If the character design looks too dated, the remake won't succeed. And if you aren't going to update the aesthetic, why bother with a remake in the first place?

I'm excited for this. Yu-No is basically a cult hit. I kind of hope this winds up being what Blade Runner 2049 was to the original.

>>15125613

>Anime adaptations of video games don't tend to go very well (See: Steins;gate, Fate/Stay night

You what nigger?

>>15129720

What? Are you sure you're thinking of the right game?

>>15130761

When Takuya is reading those papers about the parallel dimensions, one of them says something about how the less likely timelines will eventually get erased out of existence.

>>15130831

>It's 2018

Really? You're literally going with [current year] as your argument?

>why bother with a remake in the first place?

Well yeah, why bother? Just update it to work well on modern systems, that's all they need to do. It still looks and sounds fine.

>>15131187

>not doing well

He said "don't tend to go very well", double read before sperging out anon

Also, if yes, which version/translation should I get, or do I resign to my incapability to learn japanese?

>>15132530

You definitely should before the resulting anime and remake is out.

Thanks lads, downloaded, I'll give it a whirl tomorrow.

One more thing which I probably should have asked earlier. How spooky is it? I don't mind a fullscreen skelington screaming straight into my exploding skull every once in a while but I'd prefer that not to happen at 1AM on a weekday.

https://tlwiki.org/index.php?title=Kono_Yo_no_Hate_de_Koi_wo_Utau_Shoujo_YU-NO .Here is the official translation site. I recommend downloading the voice patch and the voice patch's voice files as well as and the PC-98 FM music pack for maximum comfyness.

Holy shit, lads. I just sat down and listened to the OST.

>that theme

There aren't a whole lot of games where the art-style, music, and dialogue meshes together so well. Mio's theme is a great example (linked above). It really captures the emotions of skipping summer classes to go on an adventure trying to solve a mystery with your immaculately attractive class president, who obviously has a crush on you.. Like, the song feels *that* specific.

This song is probably the reason Mio's route was my favorite.

Any other vidya where everything just blends together so well on an aesthetic level? The original Deus Ex and VtmB are the only ones that come to mind.

Sorry, I suppose I should clarify.

What I meant by 'tends not to go well' is that they sacrifice a lot of content, plot, and other tidbits of information to more appropriately fit the relatively small time slot they are allowed.

In the F/SN adaptation, for instance, you really miss out on a lot of info and you are, for the most part, left out on bits that leave the rest of the story to be quite confusing for you if you hadn't read the VN.

In Stein's gate, the anime did exceptionally well, but I am pissed that when I recommend it to someone, they always go for the anime first, usually not even considering the VN, even though the VN , while it does take longer to 'complete' fills you in on the personalities of everyone - especially the protagonist whose name I cannot remember , Kyouma was it? In any case, it goes without saying the anime adaptation of a VN is almost always inferior, similar to how going from a book to a movie will lead to many plotholes and such, or possibly even missing the whole theme. See: Staraship Troopers

/a/ is small because nobody wanted to put up with their powertripping faggot mods and sycophantic elitist users. It used to be much worse in the early days. They've calmed down now to the point that I can tolerate posting occasionally, but the damage is already done.

/a/ could have received an exodus. Hell, I quit 4chan before gamergate because I was tired of the faggotry of their moderation, banning totally SFW loli discussion on /a/ and consistently working to undermine /jp/. But nobody was going to move off of 4/a/ to a board moderated by even bigger faggots.

8/a/ could have been the true successor to /a/. Instead it's an irrelevant circlejerk, and they have nobody to blame but themselves. It truly boggles the mind how people can complain about 8/a/ being tiny and slow while defending the very policies that resulted in that.
