I feel like this show has started on a very good premise and is working with a lot of good parts that I can see moving in interesting directions. The first two episodes of Total Eclipse also did not seem too bad though, so I just hope it stays at this quality.Bakanogami posted:In other news, watching the response to the show in Japanese is amusing because of the small but substantial minority who never even knew Germany was split. Oh jesus, I'd be embarrassed if I were them. Where do you follow the Japanese response anyway?

LORD OF BUTT posted:So I haven't read ML, but I'm basically aware of the premise (aliens invade, poo poo goes down, also there's time travel/alternate history fuckery and robots). How lost am I gonna be? You probably know everything you need to enjoy this just fine. Just don't try to educate yourself by watching Total Eclipse, that was a total poo poo-show. Also, the nice thing about the VN's is that they feel like a feature film anime movie, but where you can take breaks whenever you get fatigued.

I honestly have no problems with anything, because they are literally just childhood friends and siblings in but name.

OnimaruXLR posted:On the other hand, I'm unable to divorce it from the creepy Japanese imouto fetish that haunts anime like a really stinky ghost Oh man, if only it was only anime. I think it actually started as a thing in dating sims during the 90's, but for all I know, it could be older than that too. As a fetish, I mean. It must be pretty loving weird to be siblings in Japan and get this constant cultural perspective that puts you together.

Sakurazuka posted:I'm pretty sure only otaku creepos think that in Japan too That's kinda naive with how much we see of it as a cultural export from Japan, how prevelant it is, how much product is produced around it and how many of these creepos get publisher deals to produce mangas, animes and games all based around this thing. It's too big to just throw away as "well, only a certain niché in Japan cares". Some people with serious clout must care about this poo poo.

All in all, I think we can call this successfully a better representation for Muv-Luv than Total Eclipse. Not perfect, but neither was Muv-Luv.

That ended like a fart, which is at least a step up from Total Eclipse. Why can't they just make an anime of the original visual novel instead, it had way more pazang.

GyroNinja posted:Most anime adaptations aren't about selling the show itself, but about selling more copies of the original manga/LN/VN. It's hard to pitch an adaptation for something that was released a decade ago (unless its as popular as Fate or JJBA). It is a pretty good opportunity now with the re-release on Steam coming in. Albeit, it'd make sense to still wait a bit, I suppose. Luceid posted:... Agreed. Rangpur posted:I just wanted something better than the complete disaster of Eclipse. Lo and behold, they did in fact make a show that cleared my very, very low bar. Good for you, production company. That is how I feel as well. It still isn't good enough for me to go "oh hey, if you wonder if you should read the visual novel, check out this anime first".
