[QUOTE=Reds;47852530]I will say I wish Gilgamesh was pushing itself just a little more towards horror. It could very easily be extremely unsettling but other than the first episode it seems reluctant to take that final step.
It could sure as hell use some world building too, I want to know how the hell the world works outside of the little isolated areas the main characters are in. I mean, you have an apocalypse that caused society to collapse then uncollapse and you're spending most of your time in an untouched area? Seems like a waste. The contrast between the world that fell apart and the restored high-class areas is only effective if you don't spend all of the time in the latter. It'd be like spending almost all of New Vegas inside the Strip.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, it just is what it is. "people have powers, what more do you need to know?" is the gist of it. It just cares about telling the story, not putting any fundamental knowledge behind the world itself.
Bad writers do this so they can come up with any excuse they want to rescue someone or put them in a pinch. (wink wink, JoJo :v:)
[QUOTE=dcdcdc;47852518]I think the thing I like about Danmachi is that its silly, honest fun.[/QUOTE]
I like it is silly and it knows it, it doesn't try to be overly serious.

Speaking of which - outside of Miyazaki's stuff, is there anything you'd recommend to someone like a coworker or person who is generally only into movies? I told a handful of people about GitS and they liked it so I'm trying to see if there's anything else I can bring up safely :v:
so im watching the dub of ghost stories for the shits and giggles, but like, it actually has some half decent horror elements to it in all honesty, it manages to actually be unnerving, but not just gorey and ham fisted

Paprika for sure, Satoshi Kon's Perfect Blue is a little more difficult, Mind Game is also a great film, but again, difficult
if you want lighthearted shit then wolf children is decent
and Tekkonkinkreet

Some of the concepts put into the show is really well thought out for a kids terror show, but it was executed so bad
Oh cool, I haven't even heard of Tekkonkinkreet, but it sounds interesting, and I've actually been meaning to see Akira and Perfect Blue for myself. Thanks, I'll be sure to look into everything you mentioned

It's an intuitive title design that merges the front and back of the game box since it has the summary in the title.
Jesus Christ that bikini warriors PV, just... why?
Not even going to attempt to watch Bikini Warriors.
gonna watch every episode of bikini warriors in one sitting
I'm going to hunt all members of FA down, peel their eyes open, and make them watch bikini warriors.

Oh I am totally going to watch the first episode but I dunno about after that
[QUOTE=The Jack;47857267]I'm going to hunt all members of FA down, peel their eyes open, and make them watch bikini warriors.[/QUOTE]
You don't have to, I'm going to watch it and likely end up regretting it because it's inevitably going to be a pile of shit.
