dogsicle posted:no, for some reason Julias has filled this OP with fake anime. like that one, africa salaryman, etc What I meant is that, y'know... it feels weird that a manga of this ilk garnered enough mainstream attention/appeal to get an anime. Especially knowing how... 'vocal' some Japanese otaku can be about the NTR-genre as a whole.

Strange Quark posted:I can't tell if this is sarcastic or not. I find Saber boring and Nasu's huge boner for gender-swapped King Arthur perplexes me. I don't know enough about the different NOT-Saber versions across all Fate/Minutiae nonsense to make statements about them, but I'm thinking that they're all as interesting as wet blankets. Also, why does Type-Moon continues to evoke the upstanding King Arthur, instead of the superior Graham Chapman-flavored one?

If you say that there is a limit to how much is enough anime to watch, it's like accepting that AC/DC was the best rock band in the world. I mean, they were cool, for a bunch of geezers, but the fact that you're looking at them like they're the non plus ultra of songs about loving, rock 'n roll itself and... whatever the gently caress Thunderstruck is about, means that you need to reassess your priorities. e: I am blind.

I recall reading somewhere that what apparently got Daisuke Ono his chance to audition to be re-cast as Jotaro (everyone aside from Koyasu had to be recast for the Stardust Crusaders anime coming from the All-Star Battle game) was a really good performance in a really lovely show. Every time I remember, I wonder if it was because of Black Butler and I snicker a little.

The Mahouka light novels were a game-changer for me: In early 2012, I got a friend in Tokyo to hunt down and send me the first half of the Gundam Unicorn novels because the I was really into the OVA's. In further exchanges through email, Skype, text messages and the like, he started mentioning in our exchanges that there was this Light Novel series that I might be into. That series was Mahouka. At around June-July 2012, I actually got the second package from my friend which included the back half of the Unicorn novels and the first 2 arcs of Mahouka (Volumes 1 through 4). The reason that I wrote that first sentence about the Mahouka novels being a personal game-changer is that I'm fairly confident that those loving novels broke my brain: For real, the novels were so bad, they made me realize how much time I've had wasted in media that I honestly do not give one flying gently caress about. Like, there's stuff that I'll watch with friends while drinking and such, or the "So bad it's good" / guilty pleasure shlock that I still dig. However,all I needed to do was read this piece of fiction that was so vile, so up-its-own-rear end and just plain lovely, it flipped a switch in my brain that went "Man, this sunk-cost bullshit has got to stop", and it caused me to drop a bunch of long-running things that I knew in the back of my head were no longer among my jams: Among the things I can still half-remember dropping are Bleach, the Index novels, the SAO novels, the Marvel movies, and cheese knows how many other shows, comics and books. I think that I also stopped reading / bookmarking webcomics with the sole exception of Gunnerkrigg Court (which I still follow to this day). I actually started giving away stuff that I've been hoarding. So yeah, the Mahouka novels were so loving bad that they made me reevaluate my life choices in regards to what I use my time to entertain myself with.

I did enjoy some posts from the Mahouka thread in here, especially the ones that did the whole "Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his imouto?". Also, I swear that there was this girl who was legit in love with the series and thanks to everyone dunking on her, she started disliking it. Man, 3 years sure go by.

Wasn't there an anime / light novel about a young guy who's transported to another world but instead of being a typical "Trapped/Reincarnated into another world" fantasy, it's like Gate in that both worlds are inter-connected and he's like an idiot savant at marketing Anime, Manga and Literature because he's like a Super Otaku, and people in the other world are like "WE WANT SOME OF THAT SWEET ANIME LOOT"? I swear it even came out before Gate.

It was a long time coming. Sakurazuka posted:WickedHate Paracelsus posted:Stay buried, WickedHate. A friend commented that all the SAO Restaurant/Bar scenes (or as he likes to call them "gently caress IT, INFO DUMP TIME") were like a stand-in for Reki Kawahara meeting/going through things with his editor, since he read in an interview that Kawahara often writes / meets with his editor in restaurants, so I'm guessing that the Student Council Meetings serve a similar purpose. One anecdote that I recall from those years is Nakamura telling a bunch of people how he didn't care much for the show because he felt that his performance as Tatsuya was one of "minimum input" and how he was going for something like the breathless "... Hai" type of performance that he liked so much hearing from someone like Hikaru Midorikawa, but that it felt like a mockery of that. He said he was able to be more comfortable with himself once Ari Ozawa, his bro Sugita and Yui Horie teased him for it. I can imagine Yui Horie busting your chops would certainly cheer up your day real fast.

I am ambivalent towards Horizon because, while the show and novels have a ton of groan-worthy nonsense, there are a number of cool things about the setting, and some of the other works from Kawakami (they're all set in different eras of the same Universe) are legit OK-to-Good, even if they point towards the conflict in Horizon as being tragically meaningless in the long run.

I honestly did not care all that much for Kimi no Na Wa at first because I went to see it thinking "There's no way this is better than Garden of Words". I've seen it twice now (Kimi no Na wa, I mean), and I honestly don't know which one is better. It is, however, a pretty darn good movie. Also unlike almost every other movie I've seen on theaters since cheese knows how long, it has one advantage over them: It doesn't loving overstay its welcome. So yeah, I hope this movie continues making Shinkai all them Fukuzawas.

I hope there's an Isekai show where the guy (or a group of people) goes to another world but instead of following him/them, the plot follows all the acquaintances/family members left behind in the real world and how they adjust to this person / group of people disappearing from their lives. Hopefully written by a guy who can actually write, as opposed to my disgusting fever dreams that inevitably end up with me re-enacting a similar plot to the end of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (where they travel around the country beating up nay-sayers on the internet who dissed Bluntman & Chronic, not the part where they listen to Morris Day and The Time killing it).

The "B" or "C" plot occasionally refers to the guy/group who left for another world. Let's say that you have 5 "main" characters and one of them gets transported to another world, but instead of the plot focusing exclusively on him/her and his/her trials and tribulations in the New World, it focuses more on the 4 people left behind and the Isekai hero/heroine who gets taken into the New World becomes a deuteragonist/tritagonist. Like how, instead of focusing on the "Power Fantasy", every time the Real World dudes and ladies do a thing of importance story-wise, the "Isekai" dude or lady gets some focus and it shows him either thriving ("gently caress yeah! I can cleave motherfucking dragons in half with my Sword/Scythe hybrid, yo'!") or struggling ("I need to wipe my rear end with WHAT? Urgh!").

Here's an example that came to mind: Imagine if Quantum Leap was written by Kouhei Kadono (Boogiepop) and we get to follow Al instead of Sam and, while Al does have other matters to attend to, some of his efforts do concern Sam's whereabouts, so the story would focus on Sam at times. It's just not the main focus.
