Honest Thief posted:when did all cutesy anime started not fully drawing characters lips? there's always some blank space in the lower lips now it’s been common for a pretty long time now, at least since the turn of the century though it’s probably older. it’s a way of abstracting the facial features so that they can be simple and expressive while still implying a certain level of detail. you don’t want to give the characters fully-detailed lips but you also don’t want them to look like  putting a break in the line that represents the mouth is an economical way of suggesting 3D depth to the viewer.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:It's frustrating to even talk about, because its most interesting ideas are all spoilers. Even if they're malformed there's a lot to chew on. I reckon the biggest problem was splitting the show into two parts in the first place. The first season feels like it's meandering too long to get to a point, but the second season is almost purely plot driven. The sense of pacing is totally hosed, and there's no time to breathe. The end result is a story that explores the setting less than the other two SAC seasons, and communicates its ideas worse because it doesn't have enough time to make a point. Do I need to have seen the GiTS movies to understand it on a meta level? Because I suppose that's the only reason why I can even suspect what N is. Just finished watching and it's a bit of a mess, even beyond the cgi. Did any of the phrases they pulled from 1984 towards the end of season 1 really map to any concepts from the book? Not that I much care for it, but that seemed a bit random. But really the cgi was pretty bad and their decision to portray inhumanity through inhuman movement was pretty daring when everyone looked like, whatever it was everyone looked like.

Using so many hamfisted references to 1984 makes sense, because one of the post-humans is a teenager. If that's the only political work he's ever read then it would make sense why all this stuff would resonate with him. I guess they thought that being so ham-fisted makes the inner workings of N obvious, but it absolutely does not. We never get to see what they do in Room 101. We don't know what the real difference is between N-po and N. This doesn't work as a political commentary if I can't even tell what the contrast with "sustainable war" is supposed to be. They don't do a great job of explaining what "Sustainable War" is either. I'm rewatching the first season right now and the impression you get is that sustainable war looks like a video game, but the raiders they're fighting at the beginning are people given weapons by the post-humans so they can take revenge on the class that profits from sustainable war. So what exactly is it? I can infer from all the destruction that it's like a hot cold war with the big 4 powers testing their military hardware against each other to maintain a global MIC. But we never actually see what that's like. The other two seasons went out of their way to depict the state of global imperialism and the team's past complicity with it - but now they're not showing much of anything.

I mean, I must confess that it took me most of the first season to turn on subtitles and find out they were talking about Sustainable War and not something called SWO and I'm not sure I got a less accurate picture of what it was because of that.

Have lips ever been the norm in anime? Sure you’ve got your JoJos and and your Escaflownes, but 90% percent have always just had a line. Astro Boy had a line, Gundam had a line, and whatever you like this season has a line.

I'm still rewatching SAC 2045 and just got done with the first season. It's funny that when I watched the second part I'd completely forgotten about everything after the encounter with Gary Harts in the bunker, even though I remember watching them on the re-watch. It just drives home what a mistake it was to break it up into two distinct parts when the first season is so important to the second season thematically and in terms of plot. I have to admit that I appreciate the "sustainable war" aspect a lot more now seeing the way that the course of the war in Ukraine has gone, so it feels like it could've been better received if its release had better timing but it's still undeniably a mess. The boxer post-human shows up for one episode, and they capture him - which knowing what post-human capabilities are like should've been a way bigger deal than it's presented as. Once he's in NSA custody he's also totally off the board and doesn't come back, which makes his episode totally superfluous. They also keep talking about the post-humans not having any emotions or personality, even though the Major already proved by baiting Yaguchi into a boxing match that they do, and aren't mere automatons. It kind of feels like that episode was filler written out to fill the run time. Prime Minister Tate's father in law getting his head punched off has no emotional or plot relevance. It only tangentially ties in to the Think Pol plot, and the corruption surrounding the Tokyo Reconstruction Committee probably didn't need a whole episode with a superfluous boxer to be told. e: It actually literally didn't, because the kid playing the King outlines the entire corruption scandal to Purin in cyberspace. I might have more thoughts when I've re-watched the second part, but revisiting everything that's good about this series is only making it more frustrating with how badly it's all executed.

it’s funny how the manga got stuck using the color coded transformations from the show and movies. so every time goku’s hair turns a different shade they need someone to turn to the camera and say “wow his hair turned blue/red/yellow/white/green/pink/indigo”
