The Rebellion movie is good as long as they eventually do something else that finishes the story.

It left a ton of stuff unresolved deliberately to it could be a sequel hook. Everything is completely unstable and Madoka almost brought the whole thing crashing down just by thinking about being god again for like a second.

The best part of Utena is when Himemiya and Utena finally kissed in the nude

Rebellion helped Madoka a lot. I liked the Lucifer angle they went with.

YIKES Stay Gooned posted:I thought the ending was perfect and idk if I'd even care about a new Madoka installment Agreed. Yeah, sure, it might piss me off a lot and I might really hate it, but it's a brilliantly subversion of the original show. At the very least, that deserves a ton of respect. I feel like a new installment would ruin that.

I think Madoka was one of my favorite pieces of media in the last several years and I will probably never watch the movies because the story is already Complete. that's my ~anime opinion ~

It took some time for me to warm up to it but I've come around to liking Rebellion's ending better than the TV series, and yeah I would be OK with it ending there with no follow-up.

So now that all but one winter show is out, and Tuesdays are still as lonely as before, I was wondering if anyone has looked into the recent (?) trend of web novels. Elsewhere it appears to be growing ridiculously popular, with discussion on these new serials dwarfing regular anime and manga titles. Most of them originate from a Japanese web novel publishing portal called Shousetsuka ni Narou (Let's Become Authors), where amateurs get to post their fledgling works chapter by chapter, and visitors can read them for free. Readership is then collected into site-wide rankings, and a bunch of the top titles have become so popular that regular publishing houses like Kadokawa have made deals to print them as paper light novels. Curiously most still remain available online with regular updates. Always looking for something new, I've checked out a few of the printed editions, and the prose is surprisingly decent for what I'd assumed would be horrific fan-fiction level blobs of text. An issue, perhaps, is that there's a ridiculous over-representation of "transported to another world" type fiction. Nearly everything ranked high enough to get attention seems to be about regular guys who warp into game worlds, where progress is measured in levels and skill trees. I guess everyone got sick of playing MMOs themselves, and want to read about others playing them instead, just like kids rather watch gameplay videos on Youtube? Going by page counts, the most successful titles here in the West are: * Mushoku Tensei * Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou * Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari * Overlord * Only Sense Online Personally I've only read the first volumes of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari and Overlord from the above titles, but they're both fun, pulpy reads that serve as entertaining fodder for rainy days, when you've run out of shounen battle manga. Hopefully the English translations aren't lethal. Edit: Wonder if I should have made a thread instead. darkgray fucked around with this message at 20:42 on Jan 13, 2015 |

Thinking of trying out Yuri Bear. Can anyone confirm if it is indeed Attack on Titan with bears as the synopsis suggests?

Couldn't be farther from the truth, considering the bears are actually lesbians. Lesbians who are also bears? And they eat people/"eat" people? I don't know. If by "Attack on Titan" you meant confusing, then yes.

PoshAlligator posted:Thinking of trying out Yuri Bear. Can anyone confirm if it is indeed Attack on Titan with bears as the synopsis suggests? Not even close. Consider trying it only if you incredibly enjoyed all the imagery and symbolism in the director's previous works(Utena and Penguindrum being two examples). Otherwise, don't touch it with a 10' pole.

lol i got probated for that anyway here are MY ~anime opinions~ for what I am watching this season More Aldnoah Zero: I feel like this is going to get very contrived very fast. Junketsu Maria: Pretty cool, if indeed somewhat underwhelming thus far, but it shows some promise. More Fafner: I really should've expected as slow a start as this. Don't know what to think so far because nothing really happened yet. Rolling Girls: It's Kill la Kill minus the skeevy stuff and plus funky colors. Style over substance, sure, but it's fun. More Tokyo Ghoul: Seems like I was one of the few people who actually liked the first season. It seems cool to me so far, though Kaneki joining Aogiri is an odd prospect for the future. Yuri Bears: what even Death Parade: I must thank people here for commenting on it, otherwise I wouldn't have even noticed it. This is extremely my jam.

Namtab posted:But are the webnovels good or will I hate them like I hated mahouka? Well, I don't see how it's possible to hate Onii-sama, so this question makes no sense. I wrote down some impressions for the ones I've read so far, which might help dissuade you! darkgray on Overlord posted:Finished reading Overlord vol 1 by Maruyama Kugane. As is often the case with books I read these days, it's a web novel that got too popular for its own good and ended up being published on paper as a light novel, albeit in a larger and more expensive format than usual. darkgray on Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari posted:Finished reading Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari vol 1 by Aneko Yusagi. This is one of the most popular titles to come out of the Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel portal, where budding authors can publish their fledgling works in chapter instalments. Somewhere along the way, it got picked up by a regular publishing house, and has been getting (ludicrously expensive) paper prints since 2013, with the 9th volume coming out next week. I spent money getting the sequels, so there's that. darkgray fucked around with this message at 20:56 on Jan 13, 2015 |

This is only slightly relevant to the current anime season, but is there any fan service/harem anime better than Golden Boy? It's up on Crunchyroll right now, if you feel like ensuring that every other fan service show you might watch suddenly becomes absolute garbage [if it didn't already]. Seriously, it puts so many similar shows to absolute shame in that it's actually funny, has a dork main character who actually has some traits that might make women chase after him, and it features adult women for a change. Basically, what I'm saying here is that more anime should be like Golden Boy, but that's probably not possible.

First episode of magical boys made me think, "This is the silliest thing I've watched in a long time." Then I recalled that I watched Aldnoah episode 13 the day prior.

The Devil Tesla posted:Actually that is exactly what the show is about. Unless I'm missing the joke here. I believe he meant that only a small group of chosen ones get MMO locked as opposed to everyone logged in like .hack, SAO and Log Horizon. Attaching stats to fantasy settings and then breaking those mechanical limitations seem to be really popular trends at the moment.
