I'm generally a guy who supports series being as flexible in tone as they want or need to be, and I thought Baron Omatsuri was okay, it just felt kind of antithetical in a lot of ways to what I enjoy about One Piece.

Eh, the ultimate moral clicks pretty well with one piece. Love your friends but let them go when you have to.

It feels like you're reading a different One Piece if you think that clicks very well, but I'm talking more about like the general tone and bleakness of it just turning me off.

I watched Patlabor 2 the first time prior to seeing any other Patlabor and thought it was a pretty great anime movie, then watched it again later after watching the ovas and first movie and still enjoyed it but appreciated the Goto focus more that time

I think I would of liked Patlabor 2 more as a Patlabor media if it just had Goto and Shinobu and didn't have the rest of the cast. As is while it's super good it's not my favorite Patlabor

The point of the Vivi scene is that they're still friends. Also she doesn't, you know, die. Most of the rest of One Piece involves Luffy chasing his friends to the ends of the earth trying to save them in one way or another, the only person he really has to let go of after that is Ace

watching the old higurashi anime before the new one airs and also so i can have a frame of reference for discussion of it compared to the vn. dunno how i'll end up feeling about it since the vn is one of my favorite vns ever but hearing everyone voiced for the first time is funAlternateNu posted:Isn't the gimmick that it isn't actually a magical girl show but more closely resembles a mech drama? no it's a pretty standard magical girl setup that just also has weird mecha/sci-fi stuff going on

SatoshiMiwa posted:Nanoha is arguably more a classic Magical girl show than Precure is I don't know what classical means in this case, like the old formula from back in the 80s and 90s? Not too relevant but interesting to note, Furati wa Precure started in February 2004 and and Nanoha A started in October 2005. (Edit: with the original Nanoha in October 2004) Magical Doremi started way earlier than both of them in February 1999. Julias fucked around with this message at 01:29 on Aug 23, 2020 |

And of course you had sailor moon before both of them, with its first anime starting in March 1992. It is literally older than me.

Larryb posted:In what sense? The series premiered a few months after Futari Wa did. It's plot arcs really are more along the lines of classical magical girl shows even if the trappings have changed (combat being more laser/mecha focused, Fate/Nanoha, etc..) whereas Precure plot really ends up being more like Shonen Jump with Magical girl trappings. Heck Precure has ended up destroying way more bad guys than Nanoha who very much ends up saving/redeeming almost everyone she ends up fighting though both Futari wa and Nanoha do have both leads being very much in love and gay!

So much of his work would influence his contemporaries and those that came after, as well as setting the groundwork for several manga genres and tropes.

man there are some interesting things about the old higu anime but after just finishing its adaptation of onikakushi i'm really, really hoping the new series gives individual arcs more time to breathe. that was like ultra mega turbo speed to the point it skipped over a couple entire chunks of stuff that flesh the cast out more i think... it might be better if the new anime does the first four arcs and saves all of kai for later, instead of ending s1 on chapter 6, cause if you do that you could spread s1 out to 7/7/7/4 for episode distribution for each chapter and that's just like. if you want to do it evenly. four eps for each feels like it's squeezing it way too much for anything but chapter 4 The Colonel fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Aug 23, 2020 |

As someone who never has played the VN and just watched the old anime, what would you consider the ballpark of a good episode-count per arc?

Wark Say posted:As someone who never has played the VN and just watched the old anime, what would you consider the ballpark of a good episode-count per arc? i can't really say specifically because the arcs vary in length a lot in the vn and you necessarily have to change stuff for anime adaptation. so far i just feel like the old anime both doesn't give a lot of its scenes any time to breathe at all, and it skips over stuff like the zombie game and satoko's traps in onikakushi. which aren't like... essential to the plot of the arc, but. so much of higurashi is premised on character dynamics and interactions that cutting away too much of the softer and goofier ones does it a bit of a disservice. like honestly if there's two scenes i'd make longer it's the card game and the festival itself, because in the vn those are where you really start to get a sense for the relationships between everyone, but in the anime they just feel like a footnote. there's also stuff that i think comes off a lot weaker compared to how it's presented in the context of a vn but in that area it gets kinda complicated and i'm really interested to see if the new anime approaches it any differently at the very least i think like, three more eps would benefit onikakushi a lot specifically, just because then you could fit in all the stuff it cuts away pretty smoothly The Colonel fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Aug 23, 2020 |

ok i watched another arc and i've transferred from thinking the anime is flawed but has interesting aspects to thinking it's kind of bad. it's uh leaving me feeling very deeply disappointed and empty like watanagashi isn't my favorite chapter but. the anime version of it was so dull and lifeless i had to look back on the screenshots i took while reading the vn to remind myself that it had personality and wasn't just a series of big scenes rushed through so hard they completely ceased to have anything approaching pacing or impact The Colonel fucked around with this message at 06:47 on Aug 23, 2020 |
