FMP! The Second Raid

[justin]

hopefully simple question from me...

i hear you guys talking about BOMF, does that mean that COMO is done???

[Weltall Elite]

In Japan, yes. The next novel is called Burning One Man Force.

Bah. That was still one story. They just broke it up into two parts because it was so long. It's not like there was any kind of gap between the two.
“

Yeah, there was, at least 4-5 months (don’t recall the exact dates)…the two books are two separated books – even if it is just one arc, it was written across two books. That’s a different construct than the one used in any of the former arcs…it poses a different writing task.

“
Nah. I don't think ODBD was just some experiment. If it was an experiment, it would returned to how it was at the beginning of the novel like the prior three novels, instead of developing the characters.
“
Not necessarily. In Japan, it’s not that uncommon to edit and change the script of an anime as the series runs along, if one particular part of it, or one particular character, turns out to be extremely popular…and it’d be outright stupid if a lead producer, as he’s trying out production techniques, does not use the feedback those techniques gives him in order to adapt the script to it –

Same thing goes for Gatoh. If he wishes to develop his abilities as a writer, he must utilize techniques, styles, and concepts he’s not used before, and adapt to that based upon how well it develops. To do a production where one book ends at a location ‘away from home’ so to speak is a big decision if he’s done none of the sort before, and can most certainly be considered experimental even if it still develops the storyline and characters –

Of course it wasn’t ‘just’ an experiment, but I didn’t imply that either.[/ecs]

so wait was that first part posted for me or someone else?

so BOMF will be 5 chps too, geeze that's like 400-600 pages for like one story arc!

so you're saying there was no conclusion in COMO with chidori being captured (haven't ready novels yet, just going off spoilers i've heard)


thanks for the info aEmer!

[AEmer]

I'm speaking of ODBD, not COMO...

[SOULS_LEADER]

Does backflips (Remember i havent been here for a long time) YEY TSR!

fine be that way!!!

I think after BOMF [ecs]the next novel will focus entirely on Kaname. Hopefully she hasn't become like the red headed girl from episode 1. Then hopefully Sousuke can rescue her, run away, and open up a Ramen noodle shop. Otherwise I'll write a fanfic about it. [/ecs]

(ok that was pretty bad... but hey i was trying to lean toward fmp!)

@ Weltall and AEmer: Yeah, I kinda just found out that there were short stories after ODBD and DVMC - some of which had already been incorporated into Fumoffu. *sweatdrop* I stand heavily corrected. (Having said that, though, there is the fact that there doesn't seem to be a shorts collection between COMO and BOMF - understandable, and yet a little distressing. Could this be a sign of The End? )

However, I still think it's going to be hard to do a Fumoffu after TSR... Think of the children!

[AEmer]

IRT Justin:

*sticks his tongue out*

....sorry for not making it clear though

IRT Pyrite

The children have had their fun, now it's time for the adults to have theirs

Some of them did happen after ODBD and DVMC. But there were others that weren't covered. Some of them I'd really like to see, but it's likely that we never will.

There was a story collection released last month. But, the shorts don't occur in the same timeline- obviously the time period between COMO and BOMF isn't exactly suitable for a short.

However, they are still being written- or were before right before BOMF. We'll see what happens when BOMF is over (soon).

Now, if or how they might wish or not wish to animate those, and fit them in with the other series (or not fit them in), is another question.

Well I'm sorry for making everyone sad but i just had to share....
It looks like TSR is going to be 13 episodes according to this http://www.wowow.co.jp/schedule/dht...ex20051019.html
