To be fair, editing down a VN to LP it isn't really a bad thing if done well. Not showing off all the story/features though, that's a bad LP. E: To clarify, let's say I were to LP Clannad (great VN, much better anim). I'd bloody well take an axe to the walls of text it throws at you at times, however I'd make sure to show off all the routes, the bad ends, all the possibilities for that girl's love trick. You'd get the clannad experience, even if you didn't get all the words. Liking the VN helps, but is not essential Namtab fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Mar 25, 2014 |

Nate RFB posted:This seems a bit unfair, because CLANNAD the VN is such a god drat mess when it comes to obtuse structure and pacing problems. Even more so than a typical VN. Obviously they'd have to edit it down, because as-is it's just not LP-able. I did pick an extreme example to make a point, but even so I'd imagine (having not actually got round to playing it) that the translation of Steins;Gate used for the LP in question contains times where the text is too flowery or just an arseload of ellipses. It's not about cutting things out, it's about cutting down to make things less clunky, and to make things readable. You improve the flow a little for the reader, because you're presenting static text with a handful of images. A better example may be the sister title Chaos;Head. There would be ways to improve the flow of the text for the reader. You'd also expect the LP to show off all three (iirc) endings, and the alternative red/green choices at appropriate intervals. I remember there being a few other things that have a minor effect, but iirc most of them are cosmetic. Either way this fascinating discussion of how I'd LP a VN is prob better off in the VN thread.

DrPaper posted:I would like to recommend Super Sonico: The Animation? It's a pretty sick comedy slice of life anime. If you don't know who Sonico is or like her, it's okay, there are lots of cool characters in it. From her friends, to her cool grandma and her chili restaurant patrons, to her college classmates and teacher (it's a class about dolphins btw) and my favorite, her manager, whose like Sweet Tooth from Sony Playstation's Twisted Metal but if he were a cool dude with a sword. She also has like 9 cats. I don't usually drop anims, because my mission is to absorb every anim on earth into my head. I dropped this, it's terrible.

I didn't like Maou-sama. Felt like the whole show's conceit was expecting you the audience to remember he's satan and that's why you should be laughing at this dude getting serious about McNuggets. Didn't help the case that it aired in the year of amazing SoLs.

gnome7 posted:Yeah, these posts are related. Episode 10 is creepy filler, skip it. Other than that one episode, The Devil is a Part Timer is basically a flawless comedy show. Flawless except for the minor flaw of an entire episode. Also there's only one joke (satan takes working at mcdonalds really seriously lol). Also it's essentially a show about satan's harem. What I'm trying to say is that it's a very flawed, unfunny show.

Outer Science posted:I'm looking for something brainless I can sit back and be entertained by without having to think, 12 episodes plus or minus. This probably means it's full of standard anime cliches and isn't very good. You can watch K-ON without thinking plus it's really good. Watch K-ON

WickedHate posted:Someone give me a really good series that's super short to watch after Panty and Stocking, please? I have a short attention span and get bored easily, so something with not a lot of episodes(a number in the 20s at most) is best for me. I like actiony, high octane stuff. Lots of fights, or races, or puzzle duels. On the other hand, I don't dislike all slower stuff. Wings of Honneamise and Turn A both rocked, they were really artistic and nice. As long as it's not deathly boring and has some beautiful flair. Seems like you should watch K-ON

Obviously I'm starting off with the first season, but how much of the rest is worth watching and how much is forgettable? Watch them all, then watch k-on

), Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (mostly for animation + fun as hell two main characters, didn't really like the others), Kyousougiga, Evangelion (intense dislike for the early episodes, turned incredible in the end), Ghost in the Shell, Tengen Toppa Gurren Langan (very stylish + a bit generic at the start, only really loved it after the time skip), aaaaaaand Kill La Kill + Panty&Stocking (I like stupid + stylish energetic action).

Zerilan posted:Probably looking more for manga than anime here so I have stuff I can read on the bus, but looking for some character study style drama. Can be romance/mystery/etc, with or without supernatural elements are ok, just stuff that really focus more on the characters than events and do a good job of making the audience care about the characters. I guess for examples of what I'm looking for: recently watched/read Only Yesterday and Goodnight, Punpun; which both fit what I'm looking for while being otherwise really different. K-ON
