[Anime] Nagi no Asukara (2013)

Oh no, this is terrible! It seems I have been reduced to starting threads on anime titles with not much ecchi fanservice. :(

On the bright side, Nagi no Asukara is an original anime title, not adapted from any video games, manga nor light novels. Hopefully, it will be able to carve a success for itself, even in the otaku society, where popularity means success.

Nagi no Asukara appears to fall under the romance genre, particularly between 2 childhood friends, Mukaido Manaka and Sakishima Hikari. Unfortunately for such titles, love is never smooth-sailing and I suspect obstacles will definitely stand in their way.

Nothing much has been posted on their official anime website, http://www.nagiasu.jp , apart from a preview video, as shown below, which caught my attention, perhaps due to the music.



My ecchi fanservice bear senses are not tingling again.

This looks beautiful, I want to see this.

Looks boring as fuck.

Quite a bit of information has been added to the official anime website, listed in my opening post, since the last time I visited it.

Upon viewing through the new PV, I am starting to wonder why there are fishes swimming around in mid-air...

The visuals are impressive. Floating fish suggest it will be more than simple romance. I'll watch to see if the visuals will last the entire season

Ep 1:

1

It's certainly animated extremely well, but this anime doesn't appear to be up my alley from what I've seen. Our two lead characters aren't really all that great and the love polygon is already obvious from the first episode. Also, Akari is an idiot.

Pretty much. I may check another episode or two, but other than the great art and animation, I'm not as interested in the rest.

Episode 2

2

Doesn't seem to be getting much love here in the forums, but I have to say, this is my favorite anime this season. This and Golden Time. Having just finished Servant X Service, I'm pretty happy with what I've gotten to watch.

I'm a little behind on this anime. Just watched episode 4.

Young love - been a while since I've last seen something like this that doesn't involve rays of light, thick smog and an overwhelming steam. There's a mystery behind their sea folk rule that keeps me interested in the series. Plus, Miuna and her friend is just too cute to leave behind XD

EPISODE 14:
I CALLED IT...(just never posted it in any forum lol)


Also DEM FEEEEEELSSSS

the "relationship" Tree

it might have some spoilers but oh well

That Tree is "sooo last season" lol

Good god, I lol'd hard at the Tsumugu portion of that chart.

If anyone is still watching this

This anime has made some solid progress, and it's certainly impressed me so far. I hope the ending can uphold that feeling. Really looking forward to next week! o:
