-Angel Beats is a multimedia franchise that started with an [[lb:anime]] created by [[lb:Key]]. The anime was quickly followed by a [[lb:Light Novels|Light Novel]], and then a few [[lb:Manga]] spin-offs. [[lb:Key]] then released a [[lb:visual novels|Visual Novel]] intended as the first part of six...we are still waiting for parts 2-6. Finally, a [[lb:Manga]] was released that would go over the story intended for the [[lb:visual novels|VNs]]((:fn:>I had a look into the situation, and it appears that parts 2-6 had been unofficially canceled. The Manga's purpose is to tell the story intended for the VNs. Besides the VNDB forums, I haven't found sources that talk about it.))((:ref:>[[https://vndb.org/t/v13774|Discussions for Angel Beats! -1st beat-]] - This links to a forum where I learned about the apparent cancellation.)).\\

 Broadly, Angel Beats is about a guy who dies and finds himself in an afterlife, with amnesia. There, he meets a group of people who have sworn to beat up God as a form of revenge.\\

+==== Otonashi ====
+{{ruby|音無|おとなし}}{{ruby|結弦|ゆずる}}(Otonashi Yuzuru) is the protagonist and...his personality varies.\\
+In the [[#anime]]...he's basically the straight man and, as far as the series is concerned, the only person who is normal.\\
+In //[[#1st Beat]]//, his personality can vary wildly depending on the decisions made by the player. He's either a completely normal dude...or a massive perverted piece of shit. Or gay. Though his status as a med student is frequently hinted at.\\
+As I noted in the review for 1st Beat((:fn:>Which should probably be re-written a bit at this point.)) the writing is so good that, if you're playing as just //yourself//, you may find it difficult to separate yourself from him.

   * [[vndb>13774|VNDB]]
   * After some bare-bones research on the VNDB forums, I discovered that parts 2-6 of the [[lb:visual novels|VN]] had been unofficially canceled...or at least put on hiatus for the foreseeable future. Development originally stalled due to the writer, [[lb:Maeda Jun]], experiencing severe health problems. While he has recovered since, development hasn't started up again. There is still a chance the remaining parts will be created, but nothing concrete has been confirmed. The Manga  Angel Beats! The Last Operation covers story intended for the VNs, and it's currently still releasing.
