I miss VN adaptations, now all we get are LN adaptations

>Why thing comprised largely of still images saying words words words and words doesn't get adapted into visual/movement based medium?

They used to get them a lot, not so much anymore, Light Novels basically took their place in siding with manga adaptations.

Why English so hard?

Oh shit, does that mean Light Novels will never get animated adaptations? They only have 14 images at most per volume and it’s all words, words, words, that very bad!

What compelled you to make this post? It’s like saying a book will never get adapted into a visual medium.

You probably felt really smart when you thought that up and typed it out, didn't you?

Light Novels and books at least describe actions. Though I will be fair and say that a VN with a lot of CGs could work the same.

They eclipsed by LN which are like twenty times more popular

You've never read a VN in your life.

Jokes on you. I've read at least 3.

Are visual novels still made nowadays?

Yeah

Repurposed as gacha games

i mean technically yes
but for all practical purposes its dead m8

Nah, gachashit is still a minority and less profitable in most cases.

would that even work? the mc's inner monologues are 90% of that VN, and it's super fucking long. I can't see it ending well.

killed by gachafags and vtubers

are you implying visual novels, which are literally just picture books, don't describe actions? what the fuck are you smoking?

I need a Making*Lovers anime adaptation.

You were born too early.
VN adaptations had been a thing for years before they fizzled out. Because anime has turned into 12 week advertisement campaign for source materials, VNs have phased out due to 3 reasons that I think are most important.
1. They're finite. By nature of being finished products, most VNs are not part of an ongoing series usually tell self-contained stories so there's no profit to its model compared to the likes of weekly manga or light novels that like 3 times in a year. This also leads to the scrunched up anime projects of 12 episodes to be incredibly constrained, leaving no room to grow. You'll waste a majority of the adaptation adapting the common route and have a half-assed main heroine route adaptation.
2. Because it's a finished product, you HAVE conclusive results for a given route or heroine so you can't drag out the progression like 90% of your harem romcoms
3. The main heroine usually sucks, or for contrivances, you'll get an anime original ending that just plays it safe and picks no girls at all because they still want you to go read the damn thing yourself.
I really want to know what the excuse is for most VN adaptations NOT replicating Amagami and going for the omnibus style format and why that's so damn rare. But I guess I answered my own question about how anime projects are glorified ads these days and have no intention of wanting to faithfully adapt their original sources beyond making a quick buck.
What anons said about 90% monologues in the protagonist's heads are also right, it fucks up the pacing which is already a problem.

is fgo not the most successful visual novel ever

Because they usually suck ass compared to the original VN. Pic so very, very related.

Yes, but they are mostly garbage. The scourge of ironic weebs leaves only mediocrity in it's wake.

Because they almost always end up being bad, you can't adapt a a 50+ hour multi-route game into a single series well. The only ones that seemed to have done decently are FSN, S;G and Clannad. Most other VN anime are not simply bad, but notably bad.

Are we counting western meme VN's like Daddy Dating SImulator and Let's Date Colonel Sanders as VNs?

visual novels have to be my least favourite media. not just the way are technically but the entire medium is repulsive to me

I miss VN adaptations so much, bros. Any particular reason that 2011 was the last year of the Golden Age of VN Adaptations before they abruptly died?

Please understand sometimes I a typo and forget a word

I wasn't, but you make a fair point. That stuff wouldn't exist without them. There's always garbage in every medium though.

VNs are hardly made anymore. It costs way too much to make vs. shitting out an LN adaptation. VNs are now reduced to Nasu using his FGObucks to fund TsukiR and R07 doing more R07 things.

Nips seem to be allergic to adapting VNs and video games properly. Guessing it is because of the time investment required.

Unlike with manga they figured out that mediums with typically long stories don't work well in a medium that usually only gets 12 episodes. That and VNs can also be nonlinear and have branches and such which also don't work in anime.

vn is a seriously shit medium and the porn breaks my immersion

Its because everyone wants to see their waifu animated so they try to stitch 3-5 routes into one composite story to maximize sales.

Because most VNs use a route structure and that doesn't translate well to a non-VN format.

what was that?

VNs themselves are a dying industry and I guess there's little interest in promoting them anymore outside of a few projects like Summer Pockets or Grisaia. Even Key is turning its attention to gacha now.

LN adaptations were booming at the time, notice how VN adaptations became less common as LN adaptations rose in popularity.

Not OP, but I highly recommend this. MC is low-key insane, but in a comedic way. Also, he's always high on pot.

As mediocre as Aokana's anime was, I'm still surprised it wasn't very popular considering how big the VN was.

It was pretty fucking generic, as expected of sport genre. The visuals might have been the best part of the game. I loved the idea of the sport though, I'd dive 100% into Flying Circus.

Thet used to get adaptations all the time, i never liked a single one over the source material though

I still think an actual Flying Circus console game (and not that failed gacha) would have been a cool idea.

No, that sounds terrible as hell. Think about the Attack on Titan vidya that came out in recent years. 3D-maneuvering games will be trash until it can be reasonably done in VR.

>anime projects are glorified ads these days
>These days
They have always been advertisements for merchandise. Why do you think anyone knows about Manga, Light Novels, figures that exist. It's all through Anime itself.

Yes this is usually due to the 12 episode format instead of a 24-26 episode format.

>Why do you think anyone knows about Manga, Light Novels, figures that exist.
Well since the internet has existed there are ways to find those kinds of things out. And it was always fairly easy in Japan since you could see a magazine at a store full of manga and see figures in stores if you visited them. Though there are people that only watch anime that don't know things exist until they get adaptations. Must be a terrible life.

Wouldn't an omnibus format like Amagami solve at least some of the issues, or would that cause its own problems?

>Though there are people that only watch anime that don't know things exist until they get adaptations. Must be a terrible life.
That's usually how it is. Anime is more popular due to the ease of access. Also when they watch the Anime and if they like it and want to catch up where the Anime left off they go read the source material and buy other products related to it. That's why Manga and Light Novels sell huge time when the anime comes out in Japan and near the end of the cliffhanger. Also Merchandise does help a studio recoup their costs along with BD sells.

I think it could work but it might be more complex than usual which is why we do not see it much.

Yeah but 24, even 52, episode formats used to be the norm. It feels like they gave it more effort back in the day.

They did, now it's full of overworked employees who can't put forth their fullest and either submit or set KyoAni on fire.

Is it me or did one-cour shows become more common because of Haruhi? Someone posted that one graph in another thread that until 2006 or so two-cour shows were the norm and one-cour shows were less common.

>overwork employees but with half the episodes to make than before
Wonder what happened, is it just the lack of quality of stuff to work on that brings down motivations?

I remember my first one cour show, it surprised me so hard because 24 was THE standard for me.
It was Asu no Yoichi

I still wonder why one-cour shows began to dominate. Was it really because of the production committee or were there other factors? I remember back when Haruhi was new and I thought it having only 14 episodes was weird since I was so used to seeing anime having 26 episodes back then.

They just do it by seasonal of 24 episodes a year followed by a movie rather than weekly omnibus due to overwork and it is still doing solid numbers. The mindset back then was that if it was not released weekly then everyone would forget about it.

Some arent though, its just the violence and sex stopping it. This why we need Ken to win an stop censorship.

I still pray that we'll get a CC and Coda adaptation one day. The VN was a hit in chinkland, it would be perfect for the current streaming business model. Aquaplus just needs to stop shilling Utawarerumono for a bit

You must be either a Danganronpa or DDLC fan cause there's no way you pulled that on a visual novel thread

morenatsu anime adaption

aqua and leaf are dead, brother

Yes they are. But there is not as many as there use to be back in the day.

>Though there are people that only watch anime that don't know things exist until they get adaptations. Must be a terrible life.
Considering I still have at least 20 years worth of anime to get through at my current consumption rate, not really. You must either consume at least 8 hours of weeb content a day to even be close to being "done" with anime. Or you literally don't give a shit about any content older than when you got into the hobby which is even more retarded.

Not that user but I can agree. Even if you watched Monogatari recently or Youjo Senki 5 years later than now you will still want to see what other things were made for it and purchase it. Besides I am into the LN of Youjo Senki because of the Anime for it and I would buy a VN to play it if one was ever made.

I think visual novels suck

Why do you need to be "done" with anime? I'm content just watching shit I become interested in. Sometimes that's older stuff, sometimes I see something in an upcoming season that looks interesting. And I read manga this way too. I'm just saying that being someone that only knows about a series through the anime adaptation is a weird concept to me and the user I quoted seemed to think that applied to everyone. It certainly does apply to a lot of people though, at least in the west.

What did you read to make you dislike VN's, you loveable contrarian?
