Realistically, if Dissociation and Surprise are ever adapted, how would they do it? "The alpha/beta swap seems like it would be very difficult to implement properly in animation."
>Realistically
I don't think you get how this works
I would probably do something like the Rick and Morty episode where they keep splitting the timelines and show everything as a split screen, and then when the swaps happen they reverse the order of the screens.
Animate two episodes and broadcast them simultaneously on different channels.

Realistically as in if it happens. It's not going to happen, but if it does then how would it work basically.
The Rick and Morty thing might work, but I'm skeptical.

You serious m8? Just follow what the LN did.
Alpha. Stuff happens.
Beta. Stuff happens.
You could do some classy visuals by having a dominant color tone or direction style for each timeline. Shit would be cash and the finale would be even better.
WHERE MY FUCKING SEASON 3

Dominant color tone's are literally shinbo's entire style

>alpha 4 is literally 2 sentences
>beta 4 is 30 pages long
How are you going to fit it into episodes?
>>152755010
Never noticed that, do you have an example?
I was thinking something like how in Disappearance the modified world had cold color tones compared to the original, or how Endless Eight episodes had different direction styles, some of them being more minimalistic, others being warm, or spooky.. you get me
>>152755070
Why would you separate that into episodes? Have the timeline change with a cool transition, like someone closing a door and poof! weird screen that displays an alpha/beta sign, opposite transition in the new timeline (so you'd have that person opening that door). Stuff like that (but not retarded like me)
>>152755088
Something like this

I just want to shitpost with smug Sasaki pic.
I want to ruin Mikuru's ass.

Oh yeah I see what you mean. It worked well in Monogatari but Haruhi is the opposite in terms of direction, it's far less stylized and more realistic. Just have the difference between colors mood be subtle so it's not too obvious but you still notice it after one or two switches.

I was thinking that maybe the Yasumi branch would be the season finale ending with Kyon opening the door or however it happened, and then there would be the movie following the other branch.
I haven't read the book in a long time so I don't even remember if there's anything movie-worthy in the books that happen. It at least had more shit happening than the Yasumi line.
I feel like a faggot for having thought this out before.

Just make the whole 10th book a 3 hours long movie, really.
