Little Busters fans are alternately despairing and rejoicing to learn that JC Staff think Little Busters could be Bleached out into a full 200 episode run…
From an interview with Michiru Shimada, one of the production staff at JC Staff:
After a first run through of the game I thought 100 episodes might be required to get everything in, but if we were thorough 200 would be necessary. If you make it into an anime, that’s just how much volume it has.
Of course, at some point it will not be possible to continue, so there still needs to be a cut-off… though unfortunately we’ll be leaving plenty of scenes fans will really want to see.
Amongst fans familiar with the original, it seems 100 might be regarded as pushing it, and even a 36 episode run could cover it reasonably well – although how many episodes it will actually get probably has rather more to do with how long it can inexpensively dragged out whilst still selling well.

100 EP?
200 EP?
I Think 50 Is More Than Enough..
I Played The VN And I Think 100 EP
Is A Little To Much...
Even if they do all the routes + refrain + ectasy routes + kud wafter i think they wouldn't need more than 100 episodes.
i would say the best thing to do would be something like how yosuga no sora did it. start with episode 1 and then have a bunch of episodes 2-13
I Don't Think You Understand How Capitalization Works.
Draw Moe
Sell Mo'
I So Agree With You There
100 episodes i would agree with Fate/stay night.
The animation was piece of crap...
50 of those dedicated exclusively to the culinary arts, I'd assume.
Hoe many episodes would you have them talking about their breakfast?
Unlimited... Breakfast... WORKS!!!
>JC Staff
>200 episodes
Not going to happen. They'll just drop it or pass it to another studio like Hayate no Gotoku, which in turn will kill it.
Let's Hope when they drop it to other Studio is KyoAni
Though I doubt KyoAni will take it.....
The alternate is , KyoAni make it from the beginning again.
Just like Full Metal Alchemist.
Sry bad engrish
errr, bones made both of them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_metal_alchemist
and square enix payed for all of it >.>
It's gonna be 48. 48 sounds good.
0 eps sounds better
You out of this page sounds best though
This vn similiar to majikoi but anime for majikoi totally suck otherwise the vn is masterpiece to me. I am still watch the episode 1 of this series and not yet play the vn on my opinion the character is totally flat still not find where the interesting
If you think this is like Majikoi, you haven't read much of it...
the one which need 100 eps is Sword Art Online
show without real plot want 100 episode what a blasphemy
You're an idiot -.-
^
Said the typical Sheep.
Fucking YES 200 eps of little busters ?
Will they put the sex scenes from the eroge ?
They could at least translate it properly. He's obviously being sarcastic, just hyping up how much "real material" is involved. Also, it's not "unfortunately we'll be leaving scenes out people really want to see", it's "it's unfortunate (that there has to be a cut off), but we feel we've left in the scenes people really want to see". Practice your Japanese before translating.
Also, the 100/200 thing was for doing every single route in full, which was conveniently left out.
90 episodes seems good enough for this anime
Well clannad was 52 episodes and the little busters vn is longer than the clannad one in terms of text content so I could see it going over 50+ but beyond 100 is probably a bit much.
This game is so good? oO
Before, the anime were very long, it was for the best but now with the habit of 13 or 24 anime long, you can't do something correct like that, but you can't still air it during the day... It's a fucking dilemna
Nguyen aaaaggghhhhhhbhb so manythings so wrong about this seriees... it starts interesting but its starting to suck sooo baaaaad !!! Plus some voices are just terribleee they make me wanna rape somebody!! >:V
I foresee another Higurashi anime ...
meh I don't even play the VN, and the first episode looked really boring to me ...
Here's hopping it's true.
Only anime worth watching this season.
It will be better if they could make episodes for Saya & Sasami
agreed, saya, sasasasegawa, and (haruka) Kanata
The director said that jokingly, it won't be longer than 30 episodes.
Still, more episodes needs to be dedicated to Refrain.
Also, I'd hope those who haven't play the VN and still watches this would just shut up and drop it, nobody wants retarded uninformed opinions.
we are commenting the ANIME not the VN. Not our fault if they made that blonde girl more stupid than a retard! The only reasons i continue to watch it is because Rin Natsume is funny and because friends who played the game suggested it to me. I gotta admit that opening was awesome though .
Did you just call the "blonde girl" that is named Kamikita Komari stupid? you're stupid. Beyond stupid. Go play the VN, play her arc and say that again. She is one of the greatest characters in the game/anime and you will acknowledge that, fool.
Noob.
@ Anon 04:41 - I had to go back and watch some of Megumi Hayashibara's old shows so I could hear something lower pitched.
Never know or understand a good compelling character at all. Great job. Her voice is perfect as well, lol /no tolerance
Please do by all means. You have no tolerance. She is far from an annoying bitch, noobs.
Awful taste to the both of you.
seen the chara's history... So? she isn't the only one to who this happened. I could understand the part about trauma but i don't think it could bring to idiocy....Even the girl from koi to senkyo to chocolate had about the same trauma but she was not that stupid....Sorry to tell you but this is called being objective not noob. People always mock others' favourite chara and when someone find a flaw in theirs they get angry.....
@20:41 - But you don't seem to understand- she isn't stupid. Clumsy? yes, but an idiot? stupid? nope. Then it some how relates to her voice? lol. I could argue Rin's just as bad or any other character in that way.
sorry to tell you but the one speaking about the voice was another one....and if you say clumsy here is the definition :Lacking physical coordination, skill, or grace
i am talking about her behaviour so stop avoiding it using words like trauma or airhead....
No, she's an annoying bitch off a character who's voice made want to stab myself in the fucking ear with a pencil you stupid nerd.
agreed, that OP theme is damn amazing, Best I've heard since, but not superior, to Air's OP.
Played that damn OP like 6 times when i first heard it in episode 1... that be good!
leave it to Jun maeda to always roll out the red carpet
I think 36-52 would be enough if they can't do it for 26 episodes. Though I'm glad that it's not 1-cour bullshit.
i would enjoy 100 or 200 episodes, but seems unlikely since its not a battle manga... 52eps at the most idsay.
52 eps of this shit? Hell 13eps is all this thing deserves and even that's pushing it a bit too far.
Coming from the idiot with a short attention span. We have something for kids like you, it's called Call of Duty. Please return to your mother's basement and never make contact with the outside world ever again.
