[QUOTE=Cronos Dage;48069480]but the difference is that gurren lagann doesn't put outrageous eyebrows/pickled radishes on girls[/QUOTE] Who is Kittan.
[QUOTE=maxumym;48069567]Who is Kittan.[/QUOTE] Kittan was my favourite GL girl. Easily the most moe.
[QUOTE=Last or First;48068236]Plastic Memories: am I the only one who [sp]didn't tear up? I mean, Sure, it was kinda sad, but I knew it was coming. Not right that moment in the ferris wheel, of course, but still. I almost started to tear up when the characters were reading her goodbye, but I still felt much sadder at the end of the first episode.[/sp] [/QUOTE] [sp]After just having watched clannad after story this ending was nothing really, I cry really easily but it did nothing for me. I'm glad they didn't do some asspull anime magic bullshit where she comes back as if nothing had happened tho.[/sp] Show was alright.
[QUOTE=RejectedPost;48070081]Kittan was my favourite GL girl. Easily the most moe.[/QUOTE] Kinon is best.
[QUOTE=Lambeth;48069343]I have zero desire to watch K-On[/QUOTE] So did I until I bit the bullet a few weeks ago, finished the movie the other night and everything was really good
Am I the only one on here who's enjoying his weekly dose of nostalgia through the new naruto manga? Sure its naruto, but come on.. Itspretty intriguing.
[QUOTE=Eric95;48067363]I personally feel that Kill la Kill is much more interesting than TTGL from a creative standpoint. Like, when I watch KLK I can tell what the creators were thinking, see the tricks and techniques they used and identify with them, and get into the show on a completely different level than with TTGL, where it feels like most of the staff were simply "going through the motions" to some extent. Even though TTGL is really good, it feels much more like a standard anime production, with no struggles whatsoever, while KLK just makes me [I]feel[/I] more despite (and because of) its flaws. Having the budget problems played with and exposed by the creators makes the show feel much more accessible and inspiring to me, creatively. It makes it feel like "hey maybe i can do that", and is the kind of thing that drives me to work harder and make stuff. It's inspiring in its roughness in the same way that Kyoani stuff (Like Tamako Love Story which is fucking amazing) is inspiring in how incredibly well-made it is, and I'm constantly in awe of the animation, backgrounds and compositing when I watch that stuff. The animation in TTGL isn't bad, but it isn't anything amazing either. It's just regular TV-quality anime animation, not that interesting in either direction. i don't watch anime for the story, i watch it for creative inspiration that's probably why i'm so biased toward klk[/QUOTE] Instead of making up shit like calling TTGL's animation generic and whatnot. Can't you just say that you really like motion tweened keyframe animation rather than frame-by-frame animation? Clearly the parts that sticks out to you in KLK is the South Park keyframed animation. You're saying a lot of dumb shit about TTGL to get the point through that you like the keyframe animation in KLK without actually just saying that. TTGL is a higly stylized show both in art style and animation, calling it generic just makes you sound really dumb or ignorant to me. There are very few other shows that looks the way TTGL does nor is animated like TTGL is. Instead of making weird remarks about TTGL you should plainly state that "Hey I really love keyframed animation, so the hand drawn animation in TTGL just doesn't appeal to me".
The more I think about how much nothing happens in each episode, the more I realize I only watch Yahari in the absolute vainest hopes of a [sp]Saika end, which would be infinitely more satisfying than eightman going for miss boring waist-length black hair girl[/sp]

Clearly the parts that sticks out to you in KLK is the South Park keyframed animation.[/QUOTE] That isn't what I said at all. There simply is nothing outstanding about TTGL's animation, is what I'm saying. The art design was fine, but it was animated like any other show. And the parts that stand out in Kill la Kill's animation to me aren't the cut-out animation parts, they're the parts with standard animation but really strong poses and compositing. Kill la Kill also has amazing timing and appeal in the drawings. The thing I like about Kill la Kill over TTGL is the way the show works as a whole, not specifically the more simplistic animation parts. It's simply a much more interesting and memorable show to me, it feels like much more thought and skill was put into it. And as I said earlier, it makes me feel inspired to be creative Hand-drawn animation is my favorite kind of animation, please actually read what I'm saying rather than try to antagonize me and put words in my mouth. If I didn't like hand-drawn animation, why would I talk so much about KyoAni's stuff? Their stuff is the best hand-drawn broadcast animation I've ever seen Also, this has nothing to do with my argument, but just to make it easier to talk about stuff: "Keyframe animation" and "frame by frame" animation aren't mutually exclusive terms. Keyframe animation doesn't refer to the south park-style animation you're talking about, it refers to any animation made with the key poses being drawn first and the inbetween frames being done afterwards. Like pretty much all traditional 2D animation unless it's drawn straight ahead which is really uncommon in actual production because it leaves no room for revision. Meaning, both "keyframe animation" and "frame by frame animation" refer to the same thing and it isn't the one you're talking about
[QUOTE=maxumym;48068901]First, one of the 2-7 and the last, rather. The middle 6 are the same, the first and last are different. But why not, it's an experience.[/QUOTE] Just watch until you get frustrated.
Plastic Memories ended alright but I'm afraid it'll be remembered as a show of wasted potentials. I wish they did more with the sci-fi stuff and their actual job of helping people and their Replicant say their final goodbyes.
[QUOTE=Eric95;48070332]That isn't what I said at all. There simply is nothing outstanding about TTGL's animation, is what I'm saying. The art design was fine, but it was animated like any other show.[/QUOTE] it literally wasn't, they had a huge budget which resulted in a huge amount of keyframes. the finale I think had twice the amount a usual tv anime finale has.
Eric you could just say you prefer the direction in KLK and save us all two pages' worth of arguing.
I caught myself singing the Tatami Galaxy OP today, damn thing has been stuck in my head since I watched last week.
[QUOTE=Eric95;48070332]That isn't what I said at all. There simply is nothing outstanding about TTGL's animation, is what I'm saying. [/QUOTE] Watch any action show in the same anime season as TTGL, spring 2007. Now notice that the only one that is remotely close in animation quality is Bones' show Darker than Black, with everything else looking far far worse. for 2007 it's fight animation is absurdly overdetailed, there is nothing in that season comparable. It is objectively not animated like a standard action show of the time, hell it looks better than shows that come out NOW.
I should probably finish watching KLK and start watching ttgl so then i could still not join conversations even though I would know what people are talking about
[QUOTE=DaCommie1;48068562][sp]Of course he does, he's just still not sure if he should trust the idea he has that they like him. He's a social outcast who's misread things like that before and been hurt from it, of course he's going to be apprehensive in his assumption that one of them likes him, and he'd sure as hell never ask for fear that he's wrong and makes an ass out of himself.[/sp][/QUOTE] Oregairu: [sp]ah, right, I guess I just didn't put two and two together because I'm so used to anime characters spelling out their exact thoughts. Only good ending: Hikki marries Saika, takes Yui and Yukino as his mistresses, hits Haruno with a car[/sp]

Fate/Stay Night UBW... what a waste of time, that last episode was a complete utter waste, what was even the point? They made the end-credits of a movie where it explains what happened to them after the movie into one whole episode. Episode 24 was the only truly good episode both seasons and in total there were probably... 4 episodes or so that could be considered good. 5/10
[QUOTE=Last or First;48070883]Oregairu: [sp]Only good ending: Hikki marries Saika, takes Yui and Yukino as his mistresses, hits Haruno with a car[/sp][/QUOTE] i was totally with you until that mistress part
is jojo part 5 good? I don't really care for the plot synopsis tbh
[QUOTE=ashxu;48070937]is jojo part 5 good? I don't really care for the plot synopsis tbh[/QUOTE] boring mc, bad scans, cool fights. mixed bag
[QUOTE=ashxu;48070937]is jojo part 5 good? I don't really care for the plot synopsis tbh[/QUOTE] it has the most boring jojo and it drags on a bit sometimes but it has the best stands in the entire series and a pretty fun supporting cast

TTGL is so far from your generic animation I don't understand why you're claiming otherwise. It's got so much emphasis on dynamic movements and strong character expressions and uses a good blend of rough sketchy animation for high intensity scenes and very loose yet firm style in normal scenes. The compositions and poses in TTGL blows KLK out of the fucking water. TTGL is loaded with power poses. To me KLK just looks like a show trying to live up to TTGL but failing. TTGL had a whole way of life that was intertwined with the laws of the universe, and the law of the universe was a key component for Simon and Kamina's relationship and character development. KLK tried doing the same thing but it only really ended up on a "the bigger and better mech wins" kind of thing, it didn't really play a big role in the character development.

If I didn't like hand-drawn animation, why would I talk so much about KyoAni's stuff? Their stuff is the best hand-drawn broadcast animation I've ever seen[/QUOTE] Then why do you constantly talk about their ability to work around a low budget (less animation) and whenever you show examples you show motion tweened animation? I'm just working out on what you've told and shown us.

So that's Sidonia S2 over and done with Loved it, not fully faithful to the manga but much better than S1
