legend of galactic heroes is really long. does it take like 30 episodes to get going or is there a ton of unnecessary padding or anything like that, or is it just a billion episodes of nonstop quality anime?

durarara is pretty good and one of the main characters is a dullahan and she is awesome and gets plenty of screentime did you ever watch baccano? if you liked baccano, durarara is like more baccano but slightly more chill if you didn't watch baccano go loving watch that poo poo right the gently caress now

is Garo good? pretty much all i know about it is that it's animated by MAPPA (which i hope means that the production value is high) and that the anichart's entry for the currently airing second season includes the tags "shounen" and "action." my current level of interest in it is mostly based on the hope that these two things combined lead to really cool fight sequences.

i remember watching the first 2 episodes of try and thinking it was shaping up to be really good, and then it quickly became very mediocre maybe they did the thing where the build burning explodes from the inside of the dom and went "yep, that's the best thing we're ever gonna make, no point trying to do anything worthwhile anymore"

Ive already seen chaika, and I really liked it! I started watching konosuba earlier today, the first episode was ok. I'm gonna give it another episode or two later probably. Maybe some kind of fantasy themed slice of life then? I just really like the idea of watching a slice of life in a setting that would normally lend itself to being about some grand adventure. Danmachi scratched a similar itch for me, if that helps with what kind of anime I'm looking for

Gave log horizon a few episodes, I'm enjoying it so far. I appreciate that it's exploring the trapped in an mmo deal without the whole "if you die in the game you die in real life" garbage. It's nice to see some focus being put on how actually being trapped in a video game wouldn't be all that dangerous - the threat of other players getting bored is the biggest threat immediately presented.Sakurazuka posted:If you want fantasy sol can't go wrong with Aria, the main character is a gondolier on the terraformed Mars canals and is incredibly chill. I think there about three TV series, the earliest from like 2005 This sounds neat, I'll give it a shot next Chas McGill posted:Read Dungeon Meshi Unfortunately I'm too adhd to really enjoy reading much

Captain Invictus posted:Is Seraph of the End(manga) any good? Friend of mine cosplayed as a character in it and recommended it to me. I've heard the name before but never checked it out. i watched the anime and it was alright. they have stylish outfits. you could definitely do worse. most of my problems with it were probably specific to the anime (80% of the action scenes were pretty lackluster, and then once every 3-5 episodes a really good one would happen) then again, the cool demon effects were probably specific to the anime too. that sweet visual effect was more responsible for me watching the anime than it probably should've been.

icantfindaname posted:the grimgar show from last season? it was bad, but really well animated ???????? The opposite actually? It was really good but rife with animation errors . The fights were well choreographed and the backgrounds were gorgeous paintings but I don't think the animation itself was much to speak of.

I wouldn't really consider durarara as action There's action scenes occasionally, but they're no where near the focus of the show As I recall they're generally pretty short too? Idk I haven't actually seen all of durarara and it's been like half a year, I should get back on that actually

Fsmhunk posted:Just finished end of eva, I'll take the applause ending please. Are there any good robot shows with more action and less.... Whatever the hell that was. if you just want a series of cool fights and don't care too much about anything else, gundam build fighters has very good fights. you don't need to have seen other gundam shows to enjoy it (there are some pretty cool nods to gundam if you're familiar witht he franchise but nothing really improtant). do note that it's not representative of the larger gundam franchise pretty much at all.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Ehhh I'd recommend seeing a "proper" Gundam series first before Build Fighters, any of them, just because half the fun is recognising the neat custom kits. Iron Blood Orphans or Gundam 00 are both fantastic Gundam series worth watching in that regard. imo the excellent fight choreography is more than half the fun recognizing the neat customs is fun but it's pretty secondary to everything else that makes build fighters good

I would like to hear about one anime that pavlov likes without any "you have to look past it being about a sport" type caveats I believe that pavlov genuinely likes anime, but I can't think of an example of one that he genuinely likes

Pavlov posted:Ain't nothing above criticism. this is true but my actual point was "too bad this is about a sport" isn't actually a very good criticism, though is a perfectly valid expression of personal taste were i to say, for example, "i very much enjoy attack on titan, but the show isn't perfect. it has significant pacing problems and one of the main 'mysteries' of the second half was easily solved in half an episode by anyone who could remember what most of the important characters from the last arc looked like, but it took until the end of the season for the 'mystery' to be unveiled," that'd be critical of a show that i genuinely enjoy a lot. were i to say, "i very much enjoy attack on titan, but you really have to look past the fact that it's shonen anime to appreciate it" that wouldn't really be criticism and would just read as a weird blanket attack on a very large and popular genre of anime. that's the kind of caveat i was talking about : really broad spectrum dismissals of the premise/entire genres. Pavlov posted:Worst I could say about Tatami Galaxy is the repeated bits might go on 1-2 episodes too long. see this is evidence that you actually enjoy anime, and is cool to hear. it's alright that the tatami galaxy isn't perfect, and it's extra cool that what you had to say about it wasn't something like "shows about college kids are almost universally stupid, but somehow the tatami galaxy is good despite that"

My understanding of the situation is that the re:zero anime was incredibly popular, meaning there's a lot of demand for a second season, but the first season actually cut a ton of content. Content that wasn't very important to the material covered in season 1, but is absolutely critical to a potential season 2, which makes the prospect of a second season actually being made somewhat difficult. Someone else please feel free to correct me on whatever inaccuracies

well, here's some posts from the re:zero threadblastron posted:Since all of the novel readers keep complaining about all of the foreshadowing and context they cut from the anime, what did they cut? (Maybe don't put the resolution in the spoilers, though.) Vanilla Mint Ice posted:Here and ninjewtsu posted:is the foreshadowing stuff left out in the anime really integrated into the plot, or is it stuff they could potentially cover in a side OVA series that takes place at various timeframes during the main series? or some kind of solution along those lines? Vanilla Mint Ice posted:The only viable OVA besides side stories about Crusch's faction's members, would be about the daily slice of life events inbetween the second and third arc at the Roswaal Mansion involving the main cast. You can kinda of inject some of Subaru and Emilia's missing character traits in those scenes and at some point maybe Emilia, Puck and Roswaal can have a conversation among themselves reminiscing how they first met. And then at the end of the episode maybe have the Beatrice reveal to leave it off with an ominous cliffhanger.

I like re:zero a lot and while there's definitely things about it I could see other people not liking, for me the tight plotting was the main draw so that's a really strange criticism of it to hear

I'm not expecting to hold a meaningful discussion with pavlov's weird second hand opinion. I was mostly just responding in kind with "well actually I think the exact opposite of whoever told you that." It was supposed to be a brief exchange. I do not want to watch an angry anime review

To get this thread a bit more on topic: what are some good animes that are packed full of really intense emotion? Something along the lines of gundam thunderbolt, the king arc of hunter x hunter, or attack on titan? Like, an anime that hits you in the face with a sledgehammer of raw emotion every episode? I'm not 100% sure how articulate it better than that but something along the lines of the shows I mentioned
