I'm two episodes in and that uh was a creative use of the sounds that donkeys make. This legit might be the best Nagai adaptation. Very strong visual style, really feels like its elevating the not-super-great source material into something special but also still from Hell.

A podcast about people who hate things sounds like the worst. Enough with the ironic distancing from media bullshit.

If I misunderstood the point of the podcast based on the title of it then that's my bad. Anyways, Devilman.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:The real problem I have with people claiming that this or that character is gay or bi, is that it's wrong to project identities onto people which they haven't made explicit themselves. You should trust others to demonstrate their own personal truths, and you have to be willing to accept and love them for whatever they are regardless of whatever biases you may be conditioned to have. It's fine if you want to read Miko as gay or bi, but I disagree with it because the only person who should be deciding that is Miko. Making interpretative assumptions about people based on vague evidence is a prejudice, and deciding things on false assumptions can be literally world ending.

EgoEgress posted:I watched the Crybaby and I liked it overall. But why was there so much cat death. The one in the beginning, the housecat-turned-demon whom we have to watch die twice, and during the demon panic there was a dude stabbing a cat on social media. Do Nagai or Yuasa just loving hate cats or something? I know it's a weird thing to fixate on considering the ton of grotesque and awful poo poo in the series, but it really stuck out to me. It also makes the one cat that comes back as a demon all the more surprising. When the cat becomes a demon too, its when all of the oppressed are finally fighting back together.

I haven't read any of these sequels, but if there are time loop shenanigans the whole visual of the characters running track would tie nicely into that.

Miki rides Miko at one point. Like, come on. The only way this would be less subtle is if they 69'd right on screen. Raxivace fucked around with this message at 00:53 on Jan 21, 2018 |

I like that part where Akira wants to see Miki's boobs so hard that he gains the power of x-ray vision.

Plenty of apocalyptic stories have romance plots to offset the inherent depressing nature of the setting, or to make the settings more tragic when one of the characters die or whatever.

I felt like Shin Mazinger got really bogged down with too many characters, too much narrating and exposition and so on, and I don't think the anti-climax it ends on really works. It's a shame because on paper I like a lot of what its going for, but not so much in execution. It's been fun in SRW though.

Yo if I wanted to experience the original Jeeg before Shin Jeeg, do I watch the anime or read the manga?

Endorph posted:id read the manga if you can get a hold of it, its only ten chapters compared to the old tv anime being stretched out to 46 episodes. otoh im pretty sure shin jeeg references a few things that are only in the old anime, but on the other other hand do you really wanna watch 46 episodes of a 70s robot show.

The only thing I know about Violence Jack is that Kouji Kabuto is in one arc, except instead of piloting Mazinger Z he sits on top of a big blind dude named Jim Mazinger.  Make it happen Netflix.

Look maybe she's only interested in the seven vagánias platonically as a friend, or perhaps scientifically. We can't know for sure.

Considering Netflix helped fund Crybaby, wouldn't they be able to stream it legally for free indefinitely? If that's the case it doesn't seem like there would be much reason to take it off.

I should add that if Crybaby gets a blu-ray release in the U.S. I'll 100% buy it.
