Your own loss, then. I've played the game it's based on, and to be honest, the things they cut out which caused those skips and pacing issues were irrelevant to the overall story.

The anime goes at a bit of a faster pace, and it wraps up the first game nicely.

A 1-hour special that suppose to cover/adapt (or at least represent) the 2nd installment, Grisaia no Meikyū: Le Labyrinthe de la Grisaia, sounds like it'll be very rushed. I'll still watch it, though.

A dub would be nice (to me).

the secong VN is mostly omake, the actual portion that represents part of the overarching story is actually very short, if it really is an hour and not 45 minutes, there will be no problem

I have been reading the VN and I can say that while the anime is slightly to fast paced for it's own good, everything is there.

The VN is amazing and is really funny and has an amazing story....However most people agree when I say IT IS TO LONG! there is nothing wrong with 90% of the content but it is SERIOUSLY to long. there is just to much of it not to get burned out on it if you really don't pace yourself and take almost a year to read it.

i know right, totally agreed. however, i dont understand why you quoted me, i was talking about meikyuu, not kajitsu. yes kajitsu is so long that ironicly i skimped some of michiru's route and most of sachi's, things that people complain about on the anime.

i can understand why some people think kajitsu was rushed, but it was still very enjoyable for me nonetheless. even if they removed lost of content from the visual novel, what they gave us can be understood by itself. most of the controversial reception it got here on the west, was because it got a negative feed back from people who had read the VN, they were confused by the direction they were taking on the anime and started bitching over their favorite archs being modified, joke is on them because if they had read the second and third VN, they would have known that the true route was not even included on the first VN. on the kajitsu VN yuuji can only focus on one girl ignoring the rest,a harem or neutral route is not even an option. but then the rakuen VN pick ups the story as if he somehow had managed to help all of them yet didn't became anyone's boyfriend, just like the anime did, naturally some routes of the first VN were not compatible with the true route so they had to change them on the anime if they want to go for the trilogy.

Front Wing did specify on Twitter that the 60 minute special wasn't the end of the Labyrinth story and that Eden will have some of it.

グリザイアのアニメは「迷宮」エピソード60分で終わるわけでは無いですよー
だいたい「楽園」と半分ずつです。


They wrote, by my (very amateurish) translation, that half of Grisaia no Rakuen: Le Eden de la Grisaia's anime will actually be from Grisaia no Meikyū: Le Labyrinthe de la Grisaia. Which might help with Meikyū's pace, but it's eating away from Rakuen's.
