The news that the long-awaited adaptation of Key eroge Little Busters! is to be handled by J.C. Staff rather than the much hoped for Kyoto Animation has prompted tremendous outpourings of sweet otaku tears in Japan and beyond.

Non-fans of the original can probably be forgiven for not caring at all, but for overexcited Key fans hoping the title would be a blockbuster on par with Clannad the news has been devastating – though whether this is the result of the perceived weakness of J.C. Staff or the extreme strength of Kyoto Animation is still the subject of much anguished debate.
