some of you have probably seen this already but in case you didn't I personally am not that big on videogame movies or adaptations of the sort but at the same time I think it's a cool idea, just scared of how they'll execute it lemme know what you guys think in the comments and I might reply

just for shown

Some more information about it Poster in good quality: Official announcement: (Bad) Translation: The visual publicity map of the animation of the Mystia's Izakaya mentioned earlier was announced. Preparations have begun in all aspects, let's see if we can prepare more things before the big festival. Doujin animation, not commercial animation; An episode may be about 15 minutes, excluding OP and ED; Slice of life style, relaxed and funny atmosphere; I will prepare daily matching (there are good daily matching partners), and I don't have a particularly good idea for the middle matching, so I will take a look at the situation for the time being; Do one episode first, and then do the next episode according to the income situation. If the situation is good, I will continue to do it. If the current episode loses more harm, that's it. To be honest, please lower your expectations first to have a better experience.

I think it may cover some ingame events. I think the plot will be like in Touhou slice of life mangas, I don't think it will be much more complicated. It is interesting that there are concept arts of Kosuzu, so maybe we will see the Human Village and maybe she will work in the izakaya. But maybe these are concepts for later episodes. It is hard to say how often they will come out, maybe every 1-2 years, maybe like Summer Day's Dream (you know how rarely it comes out). We still don't have a lot of info about it, so it is hard to say anything about it. I hope it will be quite fun to watch. It seems like they have a very big circles, because they are making the anime and a new game at the same time. But it is good to see a new circle which makes fananime (because now there are literally only 4 circles who makes it: 舞風-Maikaze (Summer Day's Dream), 満福神社 / Manpukujinjya (The Memories of Phantasm), Kyoto Fantasy Troupe (The Sealed Esoteric History), R-note (M-1 Grand Prix); + sometimes 卯堀亭 / ウサホリ ; rarely there are some smaller circles which make anime / animations (like 回鍋楼 / AZu (found here), but I cannot find any info about them)). One day I really want to see a fananime about fancharacters (for example by Kaisendo Directs).

I found the original, which was on the list of lost animations!

Kori - Illusionary Sputnik Night It's been quite some time since I featured this artist, so I'm giving myself some leeway due to this piece being unexpectedly difficult to find for. The style reminds me of another game's soundtrack that I'm hesitant to name. Marione - The Banquet Begins at Dawn! I'd have adjusted the translation but for the exclamation point at the end making it difficult to reinterpret. There were a lot of great arrangements for this piece, far more than I expected; I feel the range of genres incorporated into this one specifically works well as a representation of what's out there. Colorful Harmony - Spring Harbor End of Spring was always going to be a hard one to choose for; I feel I don't give this piece the respect it deserves, even as I've come to appreciate it as much as I have. A slow waltz may not seem enough, but it's a full arrangement nonetheless, and balanced well with the rest of the feature. Shionne submitted some great remixes for the tournaments, so check for those if this doesn't settle right. Bonus: Togakisan - "Sputnik Night" for Piano Trio ~ Roslavets Style I had to look up Roslavets to understand what was going on here, and I think it's better to have heard something of his compositions before listening to this remix. For context, Roslavets was a "modernist" composer, which means he sought to subvert the standard "rules" of music to express "new" styles (I use the quotations because this is more philosophy than music theory). I personally feel the remix artists fail to understand the fundamentals of Roslavets's style, resulting in something that doesn't quite accomplish what they think it does (again, a fuller explanation would get really philosophical, so I'm holding off for now).

Someone45356 - Teja antigua y curiosa de shanghai I've been waiting to feature this artist, and when this showed up in my searchings, I figured it was about time. The Spanish folk is in a casual tone, giving it an even, homely feel. This isn't to say it lacks activity, though; there's still plenty going on, keeping the remix sounding full without being overbearing. What could be better for this piece? Clonesoldier's Factory - AN ORDEAL FROM ON HIGH I know the title's wrong; I do this because the flippancy is disturbing, and I don't want to emulate it. I wasn't looking forward to this one, but I managed to find a compelling arrangement relatively quickly. Salad Savior - Magician's Melancholy Not at all what I thought I'd end up with, but after the previous two choices I figured I ought to commit to something equally contrasting to its source material, while also balancing out the energy of the post. I can't say I appreciate the harsher parts of this remix, but it sounds alright when it's using its melodies.
