PC game?
Now that's something unexpected.

They're really going all out with this title, aren't they? Prequel novel, PS Vita game, PC visual novel. Perhaps not that surprising for a well-established work, but this is pretty much an original property just launched...

Watched the first episode, cute with a twist at the end but nothing we haven't really seen before. By first impressions can't see this becoming anything 'hot' but perhaps the second episode will change my mind once I get time to watch it.

Will it beats the odds, or is it going to flop as Vividred? At least I don't think it will sink like Fractale...

If Vividred is your idea of a flop I'm pretty sure the creators would be delighted to have 6-7k average copies sold per volume.

A lot of users on ANN seem to very random and arbitrary definitions of what a flop is. Winter 2013 must have a lot of flops then, because the only 2 tv series to outsell where Boku wa Tomodachi S2 and Love Live S1

I really like this show, I expect good things from it honestly.

I'm not surprised they're going all out with the games either. When I realized their cellphones were vital to their abilities I was like "I wish there was an app like that-oh wait, that's probably what this show is going to try and sell me"

Yeah, because it's often the other way around (PC game gets anime).

This is interesting, I haven't seen a VN being packaged as a bonus with the anime, for me I'll just stick with the Vita game.

Why you decide to have that as a spoiler is beyond me. There's the slim chance of a legal localization.
