Another PV has been released of the upcoming, far more promising, visual novel variant of a dreadful anime series, Guilty Crown – giving highlight to a theme to be included in a short OVA alongside the game.
Watching this PV, it’s not a surprise to see it immediately surpass the anime in superiority through any and all means imaginable – the visuals are generally far more reputable, and aside from being exquisite on a standard scale, they’re also more representative and fitting of a sci-fi atmosphere. The abstract patterns and designs, impossible to miss whilst watching the clip, contribute heavily to the futuristic feel – as well as the overall ambiance of the series.
The sight of the heroine, seen early in the video, speaks for itself – and thus, skipping to the portrait of the male protagonist around 42 seconds within the video, it’s truly a marvelous sight in that the expression is embedded deep with emotion. Sentiments of longing escape the visage of the protagonist – with the eyes in particular being a trait of which one should take notice.
Further, one should recognize that the angling of his appearance, the manner in which it looks that he’s turning back to catch the sight of something he desires, gives the impression that even with his dedicate chase after it, that which he seeks still remains a distance unreachable.
On a partially amusing note, the video follows the aforementioned with some heartwarming moe moments – going through quite a few of those before turning to clips of actual animation, showing the intimacy present between hero and heroine whilst concurrently making a flashy display of the power present within our protagonist. For the closing scene, we’re again shown the leading male and female beside one another – and essentially, the close relationship is established in a rather gentle manner.
Not to be overlooked, one should also merely be aware, if nothing else, that the soft colors seen within the video are a significant facet in the development of the mood within this clip.
Little difficulty is required to make something more impressive than Guilty Crown’s TV series – although this visual novel is definitely deserving of being recognized on a separate note from that horrid tragedy of a creative work, or so does it seem. Hopefully, “Lost X-mas” doesn’t follow the same route as its TV counterpart and shatter pathetically as it progresses – ideally, it’ll be what the anime should have been.

Thats a really nice song.

Another victory for Nitroplus.

Even though everything else is good, the music isn’t nearly as good as supercell.
Jul 15, 2012 @ 12:55 CDT
I’m neutral on that – won’t deny it, though can’t agree either. It’s not much my sort of music either way.

This song is so touching.

Ah, the patented GC reach between the boobs to pull out a giant sword. I never get tired of that. Boobs are justice.

Did redjuice do the character designs for this?

To anybody out there who has played this game, how good was the game exactly compared to Guilty Crown?
Feb 1, 2013 @ 11:22 CDT
Considering it was one of the most horrible titles ever, we could infer that the game is close or just as much horrible.

But completely different people handled it, and it was a different storyline, and it did have potential, so if the right people handled it correctly, it could turn out to be something amazing. I’m not saying that it is, and that is why I am asking.

a better question would be, why are you asking when it’s obvious that no one here will play a game based on a series they completely and utterly hate?
Feb 5, 2013 @ 12:39 CDT
Everybody here watched Sword Art Online, despite realizing that they hated it by episode 3, so why is it so unreasonable that they would play a potentially crappy game just to laugh at how bad it is.

Why would we waste our money to buy crap? We get it free from our posteriors don’t we?
