  Fall, when graduation is only half a year away.
  
  Haruki Kitahara, the final member of the light music club that dissolved, plays his guitar by the window after school in preparation for the school festival. It was the one and only adventure of a good student who spent two diligent years on his studies.
  
  But when a flowing piano melody and a voice as a clear as bell harmonize with his guitar… He goes from being alone, to being two, then three in the light music club, as the semester he dreamed of, no, hoped for, began.
  
  Note: This anime is an adaptation of the first of two visual novels in the White Album 2 series, "Introductory Chapter". Whether or not the second novel, "Closing Chapter" will be adapted is not yet known.
  

  
  
  Anyone else watching this? One of my favorite series from this season. A million times better than the original White Album.
  
  [SPOILER="*"]I read through the visual novels like a mad man, and thought the Closing Chapter routes were just absolutely AMAZING. I think more than a few people who picked up the anime will want more after IC's ending, so I'm crossing my fingers for an anime adaptation of the second VN.[/SPOILER]

  Seems everyone loves Touma-- Setsuna gets no love. Just a shame that [SPOILER="possible VN spoilers"]those of us who want to see a Touma end would have to wait until what would be maybe season three.[/SPOILER]

  No translation out as of now. And probably won't ever be translated, sadly.

  Been trying to get a few translation programs to work. So far, not much progress.
  
  But continuing the discussion, if they were to make season 2 (maybe 3) to be based on closing and coda, wonder how they were gonna approach it <.<

  If they wanted to adapt coda, it'd have to be Setsuna's route in CC and then Touma true in coda. At least I hope so, because I feel that[SPOILER="coda endings opinion"]Setsuna's true end is only made possible because of Touma acting completely out of character. Not as a result of character development but from out of left field. Touma's true end is really the only route where Haruki mans up and takes it upon himself to do anything it takes resolve everything. Cheating end is just... it didn't resolve anything.[/SPOILER]
  
  Not to mention Touma true is jam packed full of hardship and DRAMA for the characters and feels for the audience.

  Is there a reason most VN aren't in English? As in they're not popular enough in the English speaking countries?

  Wish I could say for sure. My best guess is the lack of translators that are able to see a whole translation project through to the end, and the ones who are will always be occupied with another project.
