Da Capo II anime announced!
According to Moon Phase Zakki, the latest issue of Comptiq has revealed that an anime adaptation of D.C. II is in the works. While being terribly vague (a huge understatement on my part) on the details, it seems to me that a 26-episode series is implied. Or maybe it’s just my imagination.
For the uninitiated, Da Capo II is the sequel to the popular bishoujo game Da Capo. Both the Da Capo and Da Capo Second Season anime series are actually based on the first game, leading to much confusion amongst casual fans and the non-hardcore. This time the main character is Yoshiyuki Sakurai who has not one but two sisters unrelated by blood, Otome Asakura and Yume Asakura, the granddaughters of Nemu (heroine of the first game). Oh right, the story also happens to take place 50 years after the first game. Read my past entry for more details.
As everyone should know by now, my favourite D.C. II girl is Nanaka Shirakawa. So here’s a picture of a pillow cover featuring her!
Haha, good stuff. Still with me? Anyway, on a related note, Kadokawa and CIRCUS are working on a PS2 version of Da Capo II called “Da Capo II Plus Situation” (D.C.II P.S). Oh my god I didn’t see that one coming. At all. New story paths will be added and a Comptiq will be polling its readers to determine who gets to be one of the new heroines. It’s got to be either Akane or Iinchou…
Also I forgot to mention this, but I actually own a PS2 now! So yay for me! I’ll get my PS3 as soon as PS4 is released. :)

This news: Made my day. Totally.
Finally, Nanaka’s going to be animated with everyone else~. Hope the original game VAs would reprise their roles.
Question is… what kind of plot would it have..?

Awesome news, that makes my day–D.C. II should be an incredible anime series, given the plot from the game. I hope it gets the full two cours treatment.

As much as I would like to be overjoyed with the announcement of a DC II anime, past experience has told me not to get my hopes up too much.
… but if by some miracle, the anime turns out to be decent well then, thank the lord O-Haruhi-sama!

>> Doesn’t Suginami somehow still exist… in high school? D:
He does, though nobody knows if he’s the same Suginami from 50 years ago (grandson?). He still packs a mean punch as one of the protagonists friends, though. ^_^

actually…i’m not really looking forward for this…since the previous da capo still left me with ugly emotional scars @_@
and of course for the lack of kotori XD *nanaka doesn’t even come close to her in my list :D *
still…i’ll be watching this anime 4 sure when it comes out….though without any expectations :|
oh gawd….how i wish i had asakura otome’s pillow case ^^;

Nanaka and Kotori are like ice-cream and chocolate. They are both good in different ways.
