Tales of Woe posted:revenger was good, ended up being the highlight of the season for me agreed genericnick posted:I liked it too, though the ending was a bit paint by numbers I feel. Lmao at Kaina though. i don't totally disagree with this - revenger doesn't really aspire to be much more than something between a crime drama and a western or samurai movie - but i think the easy way out would have been raizo "redeeming" himself by sacrificing himself during the lighthouse raid. having him survive, continue to be depressed, then given resolution by being murdered in revenge is absolutely a little trite but it's not the most obvious/satisfying direction and fits both thematically and what they were going for genre-wise. i was kind of worried it was going to be worse when the second to last episode ended with the big hokey team shot but i was satisfied with the ending.

Is the nier automata anime good? I guess there's kinda a few different questions I have about it 1. If I've already played the game, is the anime still a good watch? Am I going to spend a lot of time being bugged about them breezing past/leaving out something that was really cool in the game? 2. If I watch it with people who haven't played the game, is it a sufficient substitute or will it leave them confused about what's happening? 3. How do they handle the whole multiple playthroughs deal

ninjewtsu posted:Is the nier automata anime good? I guess there's kinda a few different questions I have about it I think it's a great watch. It is a different telling of the basic story (so far), and they are more-or-less combining Routes A and B. The story very much stands on its own and is quite faithful to the themes of the game, but is littered with so many easter eggs, people who've played the game (and especially those who have delved into the expanded material) will get a lot out of it. The first episode is basically a one for one retelling of the prologue fight, but after that, it gives you some curveballs which will likely give you pause if you realize what some of them are insinuating. And each episode ends with a puppet show showcasing one of the joke endings for the game. That said, they haven't come close to Route C, so we're still waiting for a bunch of other shoes to drop.

i'm satisfied with how the depressing times buddy daddies arc ended up. i think there was just enough melodrama to make papa rei's big character moment at the end of the last episode shine, but it was also short enough to keep the heart of the show intact (dumb guys + little kid = funny). looks like we're going to get some cute structural symmetry with bookended christmas parties, all the main characters are probably going to make it out alive, and i think it's going to be my anime of the season as long as it doesn't implode next episode.

"Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon: My Party Tried to Kill Me, But Thanks to an Infinite Gacha I Got LVL 9999 Friends and Am Out For Revenge" There's, unsurprisingly, a Reddit thread that compiles some of the longer series names.
