Symphogear's sex is weird?

Boobs and butts are weird?

Sometimes a piece of media post will attempt to give off one tone, but the intended audience will receive another

nothing about it bothers me. the inherent comedic value of "the main character is a horse below the waist" punctuating the depiction of otherwise ordinary highschool girls exploring the idea of body image, is good. the anime sure had fun with the camera pov in that scene, too.

That's a pretty cool framing of it. I may not be giving the show's plotting enough credit.

Now explain the the horse vagina ep please

Ed: It definitely seems like there's enough interest to merit a thread

In the manga it was chapter 0 and I was hoping they weren't going to bother since it never meshed with the tone of the rest but instead they dedicated half an episode to it.

I'd probably have made the thread but I'm lazy and would need to have my PC on which happens like once a week nowadays.

I'm late on this, but:

OG Idolmaster is really really good. The cast of characters are endearing and well-developed, it sells its underdog story extremely well, the animation is fantastic, and it's full of really fun episodes that span all sorts of side stories and concepts.

I'm midway through Cinderella Girls and it's been really weak in comparison. A lot of characters have thus far just been a single trait that they get one or two obligatory lines per episode to clumsily remind you about, and the one slightly "heavier" girl is just eating in every scene. Plus, I'm still kind of skeeved out by the first episode's whole thing where the gruff creepy producer basically stalks Rin while she repeatedly tells him she doesn't want to become an idol. I've heard the second half gets better, but it's definitely been a worse show than the original so far.

The reason I started coming to these forums was because of a link from some ANN thread concerning Psycho-Pass. Never knew about goons beyond the articles posted on the Main Site (I was a big fan of David Thorpe's "Your Band Sucks" and "Garbage Day")

the producer, uh, isn't creepy, and he doesn't really stalk rin he just talks to her a couple of times. and the animation in cinderella girls is fantastic too. and og idolmaster sacrificed every single character's personality at the altar of making them want to gently caress the really boring producer. and also the only characters to really get any development were miki, chihaya, and haruka. and the resolution to chihaya's arc was awful.

meanwhile the main three in cinderella girls are really well developed, anzu and kirari get a decent amount to do, and miku is actually like, the most complicated character in the show and starts out as a lovely cat girl and ends up the only sane character which is a really fun arc.

and, uh, kanako actually is drawn chubbier than the other girls which is nice. and literally her entire bit is that it's fine for her to be the way she is and she doesn't have to worry about losing weight or anything. that's the thing the show explicitly says.

and seriously how are you not creeped out by makoto being a 'tomboy' who secretly wants to be super girly and date an adult man. endearing and well-developed.
