Torquemadras posted:So far, it seems to be cool dialogue in super-stylish environments + fanservice overload. I might watch it for the style alone, but to be honest, I'm not confident where this show might go, since I usually have a strong dislike for harem tropes and a NOPEI'MTHEFUCKOUTOFHERE reaction to things bordering/consisting of pedo stuff. I'd ask in the Monogatari thread, but it looks like every single poster there has a Monogatari avatar, which does not convince me of their impartial advice This thread is very informative, so any opinions on this? (Note: I will judge you by your avatar) you would stop watching in nisemonogatari, probably

I'm liking nise so far because it breaks free of the formula bake establishes to a degree and expands the world by adding new characters like kaiki and the exorcist pair

AlternateNu posted:I can't imagine anyone who regularly participates in this forum doesn't have any idea on what the guy means. There are a lot of lovely tropes that are 90% related specifically to anime that are horrendously dumb. And it isn't just "chibi faces" or "sweat drops". It includes pandering moe bullshit, the propensity for the high school setting regardless of its storytelling usefulness, the advent of the protag harem, and a bunch of other crap. moe is good though

I mean even outside of chihayafuru karuta is a pretty interesting sport for how unique it is and how rooted in Japanese culture it is. Going "ugh slapjack dumb" makes me think you are the dumb one

nah it's more of a romantic melodrama? the first season is good but not great, basically a high school romance with some harem elements (the vn is a dating sim). it stands out mainly because it's funny and the main character is well characterized instead of being a bland cypher. also Kyo Ani direction the second season, After Story, is why people mainly care about it because it follows the life of the main character and his girlfriend after they graduate and beyond. it's very good and sad imo, although some people would call it emotional manipulative in the ways it is sad. i don't entirely agree since i think it lands, but it's that sorta show, if i am making any sense when i say melodrama i mean in the sad backstories and tearjerking events way

the game and anime are very similar. the game cuts some small stuff for time, but nothing that really feels like much of a loss. it's one of the few things out there where I don't think there's a better version, both are about equal in quality with their own strengths and weaknesses (the VN has better art, Okabe's internal monologue and alternate endings; the anime has strong direction and better pacing). they're similar enough I might give it some time after finishing the game

Also its pretty bad as far as battle of wits types show. Only the second game is clever at all

you'd probably like Parasyte a lot given your tastes other shows i think you might like: Erased, Attack on Titan, Fate/Zero If you don't mind mecha Gurren Lagann and Iron Blooded Orphans Since you liked Yowapeda Chihayafuru is another really good sports show

Yona is really good although kinda just a long ad for the also really good manga. Snow White is very cute but there isn't really much of a serialized fantasy plot, it's just romance in a sorta fantasy setting (there isnt any magic or anything, it's a mostly European pastiche). Rokka is good but has a bad ending.

Nate RFB posted:Of Durarara? Yeah, it's good. You can definitely tell that they were condensing stuff in some episodes though. Also the animation seemed considerably worse. But if you liked what you saw of the first season, it's more of that. i feel the condensing just made it faster paced to its benefit, but that may just be me

the main character is deliberately immature and not very likeable at the beginning and is occasionally kinda bad in those ways, but they're not qualities I would really associate with the work as a whole. It's fair if you don't want to deal with that kind of protagonist though

Spiritus Nox posted:Hi, I've been meaning to get around to watching FMA:B for literal years. What does it do differently from the original (besides "it follows the Manga all the way through", obviously) to make it worth watching? Or skipping, as the case may be? The manga is an entirely different story, and diverges like a quarter into the show. The different story is better written, with better character development, a better ending, and just better everything. read the manga though

if it's anything like the manga relife is mediocre as all heck and not something i'd recommend to someone specifically not looking for a show set in high school anyway, watch Kaiba my man, then follow that up with the Tatami Galaxy. also kyousougiga and Kino's Journey. this is ignoring previous recommendations.
