you could probably make an argument for oshiyama being forced to make "some random moe anime" if he hadn't had an extensive interview where he talked about how the only things that were really asked by producers were, like, a magical girl transformation every few episodes and the entire staff, including him, basically came up with everything else on their own

Apparently the demands from the top were more extensive than he let on in the published interview. In the same event as that Iso quote, an event where recording is not allowed and all we have are people's twitter notes to go on, we also got:

In other Knorth watches things news, Onihei seems alright. It has a cool style to it but looks pretty stiff sometimes

Neat OP and all the music in it is pretty cool

The OP is good but I find the general budget-looking-ness of the animation and the giant blood sprays make it look too trashy for me. Watch the first episode made me wish I was watching the live action show it's apparently based off of.

There's like 800 dudes and everytime i make some progress thinning them out i get caught on some scenery, hit the wrong button, stumble into an add or whatever and die. Now i'm out of bullets, blood and patience and i'll probably just start over because i'd lose nothing because i've made 0 progress.

Is this your first Souls game?

In the larger context of the article there I can't really tell if he's speaking creatively or if that played into the scheduling issues somehow.

It's a little weird - I can't really think of many creative choices Flip Flappers made that seem like they're concerned with mass-market appeal, and I don't know what other sorts of things meddling executives would be inclined to demand from a show.

I only played DS1, but i played the everliving poo poo out of it and while i'm not remotely some Dark Souls master player i don't know that i ever felt as worthless and frustrated as i have in the beginning of this.

Ah well, it's a game. It'll click or it won't. I stopped for a while because i was getting actually mad about it and that's just stupid.

the first area is the hardest, once that beats the way to play into you its pretty easy

If where you're getting stuck is that area with like 30 guys around a bonfire then try taking things very slowly. They'll go on patrols in groups of five or so and that's your chance. It's also pretty easy to split people off of larger groups by throwing pebbles at them or shooting one of them. Shooting is loud so expect to have several enemies look at you if they're in earshot. You don't need to beat the first boss to unlock stuff in the hunters dream btw, just seeing it is enough.

executives and producers make demands or suggestions on creative teams that may not be apparent from the final product, it's not that unusual

I think it was mentioned in that other interview that the magical girl transformations were something the producers asked for, as an example. It was originally going to be less action-focused.

After the first episode I thought it would be a magical girl show without overt magical girl transformations and I was disappointed when that wasn't the case

the magical girl transformations take up maybe two minutes across the entire series, theyre very short and aren't even used in every episode. i dont see the big deal.

the magical girl transformations were definitely a producer thing but idk how much they were or weren't planning on having lots of action cause oshiyama says he doesn't really consider it an "action" show but one of the episodes being a giant fotns homage was apparently pretty much all one of the writers' doing
