The Colonel posted:also talking about the mecha genre purely in terms of "eva likes" kinda springs from a weird bit of ignoring that like. eva wasnt the only hugely popular and influential mecha anime of that year. nadesico was roughly as popular it just didn't have a tight enough creative grasp around itself for future works to maintain that presence, prince of darkness did not really end up being its end of evangelion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yVWurrghSw the economic bubble burst in 92. japanese pop culture output in general became a lot more experimental and darker as a bunch of low budget stuff gets thrown together intead of resources being poured into big blockbusters. thats also why you got so many weird OVAs that were like 3-4 episodes. eva's a reflection of the era it was made in. it set trends in a lot of ways but it wasnt the first or only thing to go in the directions it did.

i feel like every season some isekai airs that the same 3 goons are like 'yooo this ones Different' and then people watch it and go 'this is a generic isekai' and then it repeats

the head patting is a bit weird but he seems like the kind of guy whos just like that in general. he ties it into her deafness a bit but he also seems like the kinda guy whos sort of forward and acts without really thinking, its an illustration that he isnt really treating her differently.

dbz's structure is still a rambling adventure where things mostly happen because, compared to modern battle shonen where there's at least the pretense of a plot structure.

i think the orihime/ichigo stuff in early bleach actually works pretty well but orihime gets sidelined for so much of the series that by the end it falls pretty flat. this applies to many things in bleach

Like at least in dbz most of the cast has some kind of sendoff to their continued relevance, tien gets his stand against cell, roshi gets a big speech about making way for the next generation in og dragon ball, etc. Even puar at least gets to cry about yamcha getting blown up. The only character id say gets completely discarded with no attempt at a payoff is launch. Bleach has like 50 launches.

mycot posted:The main thing that makes Dragonball's treatment of its cast feel different than most shonen is that characters never ever get written off entirely but it doesn't bother to pretend that the peanut gallery is still relevant either. My personal favorite example is how Oolong is arguably the third main character of early Dragonball, is never remotely important again, but still has lines as late as Battle of Gods. With a lot of shonen it's kind of like if they gave Oolong a fight in Z.

i think hes honestly very good at certain aspects of storytelling, bleach just got away from him hard until he seemed to mostly check out. even the later arcs have their moments though.

Ibram Gaunt posted:I read all of Bleach over the course of like 2 weeks last year and all at once you can really see how not great it is a whole. Shame, really. theres good ideas and bits in there like i said but you can really tell the massive gap between the stuff kubo cares about and the stuff he doesnt and so much of the series feels like it exists because of obligation
