So Library War makes its premiere, and needless to say, I loved it!! *____*
As expected from Production I.G. (who Seleria and I fondly call PIG), the animation is superb, almost movie-like, I'd say. I loved the thick outline style they used on the characters, as some bloggers have also pointed out. And both the OP and ED songs are <3333 Hitomi Takahashi’s voice sounds so much like YUI I would not have been able to tell the difference if I didn’t know she was singing the OP beforehand o_O. And it goes without saying that Baseball Bear is <333
Despite the rather serious Library vs Media Improvement Brigade elements of the show, the mix of the action and humor, as well as the potential romance tidbit seemed all natural and not forced. Expect more action in the later episodes of the show, while still maintaining its touch of humor and romance (aka overall entertainment value). The prince-charming aspects of the show make it seem as if we’re watching a fairy-tale of some sort xD
The pacing was also great, though I was a bit sad that they cut short some of the comedic parts, like the Judo sparring scene and some bits and pieces of dialogues, but it was understandable that they can only do so much in the span of ~23 minutes. I’m not so sure if I can have the time and leisure to make deep frying posts this time around, but we’ll see~
