normally I would pass as well but something about this series.. it gave me that it's so bad it's good vibe. Also it is terrible for me say this, the ova that came out is completely better than all 12 TV episodes put together.

funi is keeping the %&*#&*(@ coming I guess. fractale, shangralia, and now this. even the fans of ARIA despise this show.I mean it's the JC staff equivalent of DEEN doing umineko (though not as bad).

Why is that? Having read the first 3 novels which the anime season covers, they did a really faithful adaption. I'd say the real problem with the anime is that the first 3 volumes of the source material is rather weak. Sadly, I'd say it picks up at the 4th.

I'd say that if you despised the source as I did, the anime script may be an improvement. The writers cut some "technical" details on special abilities, weapons, etc. - (poorly written) stuff that would eat up screen time and bog down the pacing. Some cringe-inducing emo moments were also cut, along with extraneous character scenes.

Its just basically the same as serving multiple life sentences. she's pretty much screwed until they are all gone is the point since even one is still life.

Don't count on a s2. I remember a comment by the LN author encouraging fans to buy the dvd/blurays if they wanted a second season because the sales were bad.

I didn't despise the source exactly, I just think that the first 3 volumes are really weak. As far as adaptions go though, I think Aria is one of the best ones. Like you said, it had good pacing, they really only cut what you would have to cut to turn it into an anime (like how it wouldn't work very well to stop in the middle of the climactic fight to go into an in depth explanation of abilities and other similar things that just don't work as well in a visual medium) and they stayed faithful to the source.

I mean people are certainly free to dislike the show, but I don't see how any studio could have done a better adaption (aside from just spending more on the animation budget) unless those people would rather the studio doing the adapting just rewrite the entire storyline similar to what is happening with So I can't play H this season.

Whenever I think of Leah Clark, I think of Nodoka from Negima.

THERE MUST BE A SEASON 2 OF THIS SERIES.

besides kugi's shana & louise series are done besides hayate back again so why not give aria a season 2.

really i like to see in anime than whole manga or novel due barely buy or read it more better watch it anime sorta like whole action speak louder than words.

so maybe dubs buys we get s2 finally wrap-up whole main girl's mom (bleepin) jail sentence yea it bother me sometimes.
