Mirello posted:that manga is legit the only time I've ever stopped reading because the art was too confusing. maybe the translation I was reading wasn't good either, but I just couldn't understand wtf was going on. Yea the manga has a lot of incredible designs but there's something about its visual language that I frequently found tough to parse. Sometimes had to reread entire chapters to really figure it out.

Toph Bei Fong posted:Welcome to the NHK is a legit good novel, an okay manga, and a weird anime. It was odd experiencing them in succession, kind of like seeing Flanderization occur in real time. Like a decade ago I binged the entire manga in a single day while unemployed. Definitely not the best state of mind for doing that haha. I should definitely hit up the novel one of these days. The manga had a pretty big effect on me back in the day and if it's a watered down version of the novel I think that even a decade later I could still get a lot out of the real deal.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:the best webnovel translation was the one where the guy intentionally and openly refused to translate any common noun. it was almost completely unreadable, because obviously there weren't footnotes or anything explaining what all these untranslated terms meant. I hope all the common nouns were in brackets too

Bit it's pretty obvious because that show just showed what an utterly despicable character Tanya/ the Salaryman are Some folks think that because nobody explicitly says "war crimes are bad, you shouldn't do them", that the show thinks it's good when Tanya commits war crimes.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:People who used to represent the worst aspects of fandom now have American cartoons to obsess over. Obviously it's still there, but it's easier to ignore than ever before. Not just that but also since there is way too much anime these days everything gets sectioned off into its own niches instead of being part of the monoculture so it is harder than ever to see the worst aspects of fandom unless you're a twisted psycho that actively looks for it. I can appreciate that.

Calling my shot now, the live action Cowboy Bebop is gonna be decent on its own merits but will pale in comparison to the anime. But heck, that's okay. It existing will mean plenty of people will check out the anime for the first time so there's value in that if nothing else.

Eva is absolutely worth watching. It's incredible and even if you don't dig it you can probably find something to respect about it since it has been hugely influential in so many ways.

Gripweed posted:Yeah Dougram is a bizarrely realistic representation of a popular insurgency. I never finished it because it's such a long show with quite a few stretches where it's just killing time, but in its first arc I was definitely blown away at seeing the leader of the insurgency straight up selling them out in exchange for their planet becoming a colony of Earth with him as its representative.

Gripweed posted:The long stretches of nothing happens are actually somewhat intentional, because the revolution doesn't actually make any real gains until a significant number of the locally-born soldiers working for the occupational government quit/defect in protest over the execution of a popular NCO. That makes sense to me and heck I was getting the impression it was gonna be something along those lines. Though it being 70-something episodes made it hard to stick with til the end. I did quite like what I saw and I mean to go back to it someday tho.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:It is not at all hard to figure out why Miyazaki is considered the "good anime director" over Tomino. Come on. Putting mecha aside, you do not need to invest 20 hours into appreciating Miyazaki's greatest works. You should be comparing Miyazaki to other filmmakers like Satoshi Kon or Oshii. In that case it's because Miyazaki comes the closest to capturing "Disney magic."

The actual way to effectively take down a lot of isekai stuff would be to make a story that tackles the colonialist themes present in so many of them since they can range from outright vile to just well-intentioned but inadvertently pro-colonialist It's way easier said than done tho

Fauxbot posted:that's been done years ago. it was that 'me with the child soldiers and also a girl gets horrifically raped. something something giant fort and desertification and warlordism was the background to the rather nasty plot but can't remember the name. Now and Then, Here and There is good but also it doesn't criticize it in the same way modern isekai do it, if that makes sense?

McKilligan posted:The sequels were utterly hollow attempts to mimic everything about the original, but only at a surface level. Imitation without understanding. They took no comparable risks to the original, choosing instead to ctrl-c everything that worked last time. The fact that they used The Pillows at all was a very alarming sign to me from the start. And then it came out and it turned out that they also just reused most of the songs from the memorable scenes in the original instead of anything the band has done in the past, like, 15 years.
