Nice, this turned out to be real as well.

I'm guessing a movie most likely though because of the format.

Awesome. So glad this turned out to be true. I played the game a little while ago and I'm excited to see how they're going to adapt it into a movie or television series. I hope that it isn't, unlike with some adaptions, obvious that it's based on a visual novel.

I suspected as much. The 'fake' trailer had actual high quality animation in it and companies never go that far for just a joke.

This screams movie to me, but I think a 12/13 episode anime could work if they added some more backstory/detail to the world and characters. Mad hyped. And unlike Rewrite, this actually has a good studio....

speaking of Key anime.... has anyone else seen the new Rewrite pv yet? the animation looks like it was all done by Ryouma Ebata.... he's a Sakuga animator..... it was incredible. definitely gonna be a great series

Why don't you think 8 Bit are any good? and DO NOT say adaptation quality..... doesn't count in my books as a reason to dislike a studio

I mean to be fair Blizzard at the peak of WoW had more than enough money to throw at stupid April Fools jokes vs a fairly new animation studio and a VN company.

I would just be happy with a 30 minute OVA though a movie would be better. A TV series would be overkill and may add undesirable elements.

Good thing this is real. If it was an April Fool's joke, oh, someone's going to die!

....Well, not literally.

At this point I'd be like Key title... woooot!

But seriously. I liked Planetarian, though short it was a good story. I am not sure how this can translate into an Anime though.. spoiler[ its not like this series can end on a positive note...]
