Clockwork Planet

Noticed this potential hidden gem, so I decided to create this thread to discuss Clockwork Planet. As such, this is generally be a spoilerific thread, so this is a warning to those who are not caught up with the current chapters, especially considering that most of the people here didn't know of Clockwork Planet's existence. You Have Been Warned.

i have decided to watch it, though i have only watched one episode, because i heard it was a bad adaptation

Yeah, I've heard the anime adaptation is not that great. The original novels on the other hand are very well-written, and contain a lot of Worldbuilding and interesting bits. You're better off reading the novels themselves to get the full experience. Currently, there are 4 volumes available.

lol I guess this thread was sparked from my pantheon profiles huh?

Yeah, I've seen the whole anime, and, while I wouldn't say it's the worst anime ever (there are certainly worse), it's not that great (and I consider myself extremely easy to please compared to most). I haven't read the manga iself, but I've read the tropes page, the wiki, and read an article about the differences between the anime and manga, so I think I'm fairly well-informed, all things considered.
I believe it was this one.

Can you link the article please? I'm interested to know the differences myself since I can't access the anime legally.

EDIT: Well uh... That just completely threw out all of my theories and analysis out the window. Suddenly, things are taking an Inception turn by hinting that the Clockwork Planet could actually be a dream world. I may need to comment out some of my examples on the trope page and remove any mentions of the series from the Grand Unified Timeline.

I'm thinking it's more along the lines of The Matrix, if that's true.
EDIT: I wouldn't be too hasty about deleting anything, as I think it might still be too early for that.

Anyway, I'm doing the best I can to work on the main and character pages. Currently, I own three of the four available novels, and reading the second novel right now, so I'm hoping to get up-to-date with the series by the time the fifth novel comes out.

Well, this is a genuine surprise. Goddammit, this means I have to postpone one of my profiles until further info comes out.

currently binging it now. the music is pretty good and the scenes are decently executed, but you do notice that it is rushed
