I played a little Blade & Soul and, granted I can't speak Mandarin, it seemed like some pretty standard Wuxia stuff. It's Gonzo and MMO plot though so I'll be avoiding it.

You know what? It's actually kind of impressive you managed to make a hyperbole out of "average".

It probably won't be good, but it's not an entirely hopeless premise. Hemingway wrote a slice of life light novel about a guy who got his dick shot off, a ln about impotent superheroes could work.

Ezzum posted:Looks like an okay season. I was really excited for MushiShi s2, but the special kind of tempered my enthusiasm. It was pretty, but didn't quite match up in terms of narrative to the first season. I wouldn't expect the narrative to decline in quality because I don't remember anyone ever mentioning the manga declining in quality, but yes being excited about mushishi definitely goes against the spirit of the series.

There's even a few wildcards in Anime Mirai, Captain Earth, Coffin Princess, and the Anno slice of life.

Putting in the Coffin Princess for the 3 ep rule. Not totally sold on the characters or setting yet, but it was stylish as gently caress let's hope it carries past the budget heavy beginning. I did absolutely love they wrecked a shop then actually paid the damages e:also what's up with anime and PTRD anti tank rifles? It was hilariously ineffective against armor and you had to have two people carry it. Butt Frosted Cake fucked around with this message at 04:23 on Apr 10, 2014 |

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:If your magic wand is going to be a gun, might as well make it a gigantic anti-material rifle. I see nothing wrong with this, this way we get scenes of the little girl waving around a gun that's bigger than her while chanting magic spells. A little girl in Darker than Black used one too. I don't know it just makes me laugh thinking about a middle school girl firing one.

Silver2195 posted:This year has been legitimately not-great so far, compared to the last couple years. On the other hand, it's probably not a significantly worse year for anime than, say, 2010, and there are still some watchable shows. Thanks for responding with a sentiment that's parroted ad nauseam in every season thread I guess.

Chas McGill posted:One of the things I like about ADTRW is that it doesn't seem have nearly as many creeps and paedos as other places where anime is discussed. There are some though, and it's hilarious to see embarrassed siscons falling over themselves to justify watching a gross show. Congrats on your SUPERIOR ANIME TASTE you should get a medal or something. It is funny though I'll give you that, but I can feel the smug coming off of you.

Zorak posted:That situation was blown out of proportion as I recall (what a surprise, a skeevy pornography website not being the most reputable news source, who knew!), but the sentiment has popped up here and there outside of that situation. There's the situation that occurred where an idol was forced to apologize in tears to her fans for ruining her career for daring to have gone a date, which is yet another example of how extreme fandoms are weird. A textboard must be the worst pornsite imaginable. Did you mean futaba?

The Devil Tesla posted:That's probably just a result of the type of people who took that poll. It's useless as anything but a rough comparison of popularity, and what is more interesting is comparing the women's and men's chart. No, the most interesting thing is that you're defending some retarded ANN users tastes because they're women.
