Well, the Kiznavier plot is inherently ridiculous, but the art, animation, and music were all very good. I agree that they could've used more episodes to flesh things out because some of the characters were a little under-developed.

I still really liked the show, though. The high points were great.



Yeah this.

The first LWA should be mandatory viewing, it's freaking incredible.

Also, it's only a half hour long.

and netflix kindly never makes it available in my region and practically nobody bothers ripping netflix shows. kuromokuro never got ripped for one, fun stuff!

And kuromukuro is pretty good! But there's no discussion, no word of mouth, no nothing. For all I know, it didn't affect the actual popularity or sales in any real way, but it sure feels like it just kind of vanished.

Huh, can't find info one way or the other on Kodansha's site, it does say that it's the same translation by Studio Proteus though. Not that much is actually gained by having one page of explicit sex in a cerebral action scifi story.

I'm more looking forward to the hardcover version anyway.

the other problem with the erased ending is you can watch the movie/drama(?) or read the manga and get different, arguably better endings. only familiar with the manga's but it seems dumb to me that their multimedia push included giving each version of the story a different ending.

Wait really? Guess I'll move the manga up a few notches in the Backlog.

it's more hosed up that it's flipped

I think that's only because they used the super old Dark Horse version for their examples.

quote:

k on Amazon, refer to the deluxe editions as being overseen by creator Masamune Shirow, and featuring unaltered sound effects and the original right-to-left page order. But nowhere do they claim that the book is uncensored, which is an interesting distinction.



e: that article is confusing as hell and now I'm more confused than ever about if it's flipped or not. I'm beginning to suspect that Bleeding Cool sucks.

the main thing about fuuka that would give me pause is the big chapter 37 twist. so I'd think it would take most of a single cour run just to drop that in your lap and then there's so much less time to deal with the fallout. but my only experience with the story is from hearsay so who knows.

Tell me the thing.

It's not a movie! It's a 30 minute short and it's great, please watch it! It's on Netflix.

Even if the plot gets rehashed the original OVA has amazing animation and effortless storytelling and i can't recommend it highly enough. The somewhat longer sequel still looks great, but the writing isn't nearly as tight.

I'm really looking forward to the series too!
