@Zuriel: Not yet, im still were I left off last time. I'll get to it (eventually)...
@Dynamic: Ive always hoped for one to, but having reached the end I get the impression that the overall story isn't really conductive to the 'visual novel > anime' format that we saw with previous Key VN adaptations, for a few reasons.
-Some of the subject matter is very heavy. Being able to bounce back from that and move onto the next character immediately would feel strange.
-Some of the stories in the game, particularly Kud's, Kuragaya's and to a lesser extent Haruka's, wouldn't work terribly well without 100% devotion from the protagonist.
Normally, you could tell it like Yosuga no Sora did with the split 'common route' episodes and 'character route' episodes, but that in itself dosent work because of the way that the common route evolves based on how many/what routes have already been viewed, which is necessary for the 'big revelation' in Refrain.
You might have to get the visual novel if you want to see what LB is like. If you do, make sure you dont read the wiki page or any forums about it. Its got a central mystery to it that you get to work out progressively, so avoid spoilers like the plague.
But yeah, a tragedy and yet happy is a good way to sum it up.
