    Fly High,
    Make it,
    Get to the new World that I seek
    Someday
    With my little Wings
    I don't know why, but those few words, sang like that were really a great thing to listen to before each ep.

    I know the songs will (should?) be different, nonetheless, I will watch the prequel show with great pleasure, should they be able to cope with the first series.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    I don't think I've seen another anime whose OP fits the series as well as ef's.

    Like the first series based on the ef - a fairy tale of the two adult romance game franchise, Shin Oonuma will direct the animators at SHAFT.
    This is great news, since what made the first season for me was the sheer genius of the direction. I still believe Ef could not have been done better (or even equally good) in any medium other than anime.

    No, I think it has to be anime. All those color effects and backdrops are only possible in anime.

    Anyone know when the first episode airs? I'm led to believe it's October 6.

    That's Japan's time zone. I think they use GMT+9. So yeah, like BoC said, effectively all of you in the American or European continents will see it as Oct 6. I'm on GMT+10, so I'm an oddity

    Episode 1 Pre-Release by Chihiro

    Pre-release meaning no karaoke or typesetting, for those of you who must have the subs especially since it's by Chihiro.

    yup, video quality was just awful too, like a vhs encode.

    That first ep was very much like what I remembered from the show, except that there was maybe a little too much "scenes" to it. But I guess it serves a purpose for what is to come

    Yeah, you'd think every group would jump on this series since it's one of the most highly anticipated series this season.

    Weird...
