That show wasted so much potential but insisted on being nationalistic garbage.

I Failed At Anime 2022

Wark Say posted:

One Piece is going to be a herculean effort even if you go for the Manga.

Please say that you're going for the manga.

The anime is fine until Marineford at least. Some of the filler arcs were pretty good and one after Skypeia is one of my favorite arcs.

I don't want to go into the thread for it cause of spoilers. Can anyone give me a non-spoiler reason why people are hype for Heaven's Feel being a movie? I haven't played the VNs, just watched Fate/Zero and UBW.

Nationalism was the least of mahouka's problems. There were a lot of hosed up social ideologies being advocated, the central conceit for the main character was really boring and the sister was in love with him

drat it Charlotte, how the hell do you manage to make a bad baseball episode? I expected nothing and was some how annoyed even more. I knew I should have dropped this at episode 1

like why do people want an adaptation, or why are they excited about a movie specifically?

the latter is because the route has lots of boring spots that would be trimmed down by necessity in a movie, and a handful of real good scenes that will go well with a movie budget

The first half of the first episode was really cool, then everything went down hill and never recovered


But hey it lasted a bit more interesting that Plastic memories which is one of the quickest shows I dropped. In under a minute I basically could tell the twist and how it would end.

It's not so much the quality of the anime, it's just that I feel the manga is superior, even with all the stellar voice acting.

Is it that the school is actually the bad guys all along?

It's gonna be something convoluted involving the stars, the sister and the missing brother they haven't mentioned since episode 1

Namtab

It will change everything, and the second half of the show will involve the team trying to figure out the purpose of the powers

If it's only 12/13 eps, the ending will feel rushed and disappointing

Yeah, that explains it, thanks thread. I had also heard that it's the darkest of the routes.

As for Charlotte, I love P.A. Works animation, and I like Maeda's stuff, but holy poo poo it needs to pick up soon. It's mildly entertaining at best, and those scenes with the MC's sister are the worst. This pizza sauce thing reminds me of the exact same gag in Kanon with the "jam", and even Kanon didn't beat it into the ground.

The sister is adorable, which means that she is either dying or hiding a traumatic secret.


I don't think she is a ghost, because they already have the dead character

I don't think the school is evil, but there will be a reason why they have so much leeway to stop the kids with powers. The headteacher probably was involved in their causation
