      @sorvani said in Maria-sama ga Miteru (Maria Watches Over Us):

      @heimdal7 said in Maria-sama ga Miteru (Maria Watches Over Us):

      @Lily-Garden I don't know all the old stuff that was licensed but Earl and Fairy that was brought up seemed like a bad choice for a test series as it didn't age well culturally or visibility wise.

      Maria even today remains a presence in fully parodies like Yuri is My Job and repeatedly referenced by other series.

      and yet... v6 just got announced. I can only assume it was to keep the license channel open with Shueisha

      I have no idea what their stipulations are for them to drop a series. Diaries from what I understand was selling poorly also before the anime (I'm assuming it is through the roof now.). It might simply be as long as a series isn't selling in the red they keep translating it. It would take someone who actually works at j novel to explain it. Chances are they wouldn't share that kind of details though.

      Anyways a rewatch of Maria first season just finished on reddit that was rather active with comments for pride month. Though sadly the post themself got bot brigaded down voted for each one.

      So it's Kou 2 ni Time Leaped Shita Ore ga, Touji suki Datta Sensei ni Kokutta Kekka but with both main characters as time leapers. Seems interesting.

      I really dislike super dumb MC in my LN. I can put up with it a bit more in anime form, but I still had to drop this anime after 4 episodes. Just could not hack it. Anyone know how faithful the anime was to the source? Because I do like dungeon x real world.

      @Torka said in Kurasu no Daikiraina Joshi to Kekkon Suru Koto ni Natta:

      @Geezer-Weasalopes

      Wait, so the character designer is different from the artist? Why doesn’t the character designer just draw it?

      That's a good question, which might be answered in the Author's Afterward or some such thing.
      As @sorvani notes, with LNs the Character Design and Illustrator are normally the same.

      The times I'm aware of where they differ generally reflect a change of illustrator partway through the series where the new illustrator is doing their best to maintain thesame style, and they note the earlier illustrator as Character Design in the volumes following the switch; in this case the cover for volume 1 shows illustrator and character design credits, so it seems that's not the case this time.

      I've also seen works where there were separate character and setting designers...but those generally involve weird ass settings, post apocalyptic or other weirdly non-standard.

      Wait.
      The character design credit matches the mangaka.
      Weird in some ways, as the LN commenced publication on Dec 25, 2020 and the Manga on May 14, 2021 (both dates per MAL).

      Anyway, it would seem they'd already greenlit the Manga and had character designs in hand prior to commencing artwork for the LN; that's the explanation that springs to mind given the circumstances...unless maybe they greenlit the manga and decided the person they'd hired to illustrate the LN was who they wanted on the manga and shifted them over and they'd already had approved character designs that the one taking their place with the LN then drew upon...pun intended.

      MAL doesn't show もすこんぶ associated with any other works.
      Their Twitter has a weird comment in their bio...weird as the default MTL renders it, that is.
      小説は漫画のみ担当
      I think this actually breaks down into their saying they're responsible for the character design for the novel and the manga.

      A sweet sounding fully rom-com with just a dash of supernatural sprinkled in. Sounds great
