And it all happens in concert with the ultraviolence. And lo did Ajax cut through the neck of telemachus and become covered in his lifeblood, and telemachus fell like an old olive tree raised on the cliffs sinks to the sea, and his mother would never again hear her boy play the lyre again, and would beat on her breast when she heard the news.

Anti war war national epic that portrays the nation partially as amoral pirates and psychos and their enemy as mostly noble and tragic.

Thanks to EWB's big list o' isekais, I've read some things of... varying quality over the past few days. "This might be the bad kind of trash" warning signs: - RPG mechanics that serve no narrative purpose. - MC manages to "invent" something from the real world without any explanation as to how they got the raw materials [/ high-quality metals/ technical know-how / new world crops] that would involve.

Be careful out there. Don't get tricked into reading isekai manga or not watching Gunbuster.

Jesus Christ, I haven't seen Akira since 2003 when I was a junior in high school and that movie is still a loving mindjob. Poor Kaori

I like how, in KonoSuba, Kazutrash's "inventions" just enable him to go back to his hikikomori habits, because he's the worst.

Diebuster is the best work that the specific iteration of gainax worked on and they sort of have been doing it over and over again in ttgl and klk and now franxx and it's not even close cause its such a short and focused and thematically resonant piece.

But you arent allowed to watch it until you backpack across andalusia, drawing the doujis that lives in your heart page by page in the sand.

chumbler posted:The majority of bad ones can be avoided by filtering out any with male protagonists, I find. Doesn't get rid of all the bad ones, but it's a good first pass. I'd amend that to "Male protagonists that stay human." There's the one where the guy becomes a sword which is pretty good, in my opinion. Wark Say posted:I like how, in KonoSuba, Kazutrash's "inventions" just enable him to go back to his hikikomori habits, because he's the worst. I think a lot of people give KonoSuba a pass because it's a massive parody of the "hard men doing hard things" that a lot of popular isekai up to that point was (SAO, LH).
