Most disappointing anime Anonymage 08/04/19 (Sun) 00:15:59 No.31035 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

What was the most disappointing anime you have ever watched? For me personally, it was Sailor Moon Crystal. I'm a big Sailor Moon fan and I was pumped for the new series to come out, even though it kept getting delayed I didn't care, I just wanted to feel the magic I felt watching the series for the first time again. But when the show aired in the summer of 2014 i was met with a show with extremely sloppy animation, poor writing and really just an underwhelming vibe to it. It was just such a gut punch to see my favorite show get treated with such a mishandled and mediocre retelling.

Context: they unironically aired Ghost in the Shell, Elfen Lied, Ergo Proxy, Agent Najica and NGE (aka "EVA") in the 2000s here.

I was so confused what Ergo Proxy and NGE were about I dropped them. Took me a while to learn NGE is a deconstruction of mecha genre, while Ergo Proxy is a deconstruction of cyberpunk genre. Cruel irony is, my father accidentally pulled a Gendo tier move on me

I've watched teasers and trailers and didn't feel like watching the show at all, but the reaction to it does seem excessively and artificially positive.

Anonymage 09/23/23 (Sat) 20:46:54 No.41065

I watched the live action and it was decent. I mean, it's corny and goofy as fuck, but what else can you expect from One Piece. Apparently the mangaka had some say in the creative direction so they couldn't flip race/gender/sexuality of the characters like you usually expect from Jewflix.

People say shit about Western adaptations of anime and manga, but truth is most of the Japanese ones are very bad as well, it is something that doesn't really translate well into live action.

I actually enjoyed the live action a lot and I went in expecting to only like it ironically. I think the performances are kind of cringy but I also don't really know how you'd deliver any of One Piece seriously. The physical sets and props, along with the lighthearted camp feeling ends up coming across as a faithful adaptation despite cutting out a pretty large chunk of the manga.

Buggy was literally perfect.

anime and Japan is dead Anonymage 09/12/24 (Thu) 15:33:41 No.42426 [Reply]

Anime is dead. The new anime coming out is trash, rewatching old anime gets tiring and some old anime doesn't age well like tominos side projects or gets lost in time.

The otaku identity is now pink and blue tranny rooms on YouTube full of $5000 spent on first result in google anime merch of the latest seasonalslop poser anime like jjk,mha,nagatoro, uzaki-chan,my dress up darling. The "otaku" these days don't even know who is aura battler dunbine or ideon.

Anime and Japan also lost a lot of its "power" so to say in the way of mysticism/ nerd cred. Initially being viewed as a high quality nation with #1 schooling in the world it's now cheap commericial touristwank. The politicians are all now pozzed centrists payed off by the West instead of based hard right wing. The average Japanese teen nowadays prefers McDonald's over sushi. It's truly over.

Anime is popular with children and the poor because it's so easy to access for free.
Even if you got something against "piracy" there is ad supported free stuff, stuff uploaded by the publisher for free, and old dvd as well as the occasional vhs are floating around in most places for almost free.

Cost isn't a prohibiting factor in Anime as a hobby.

Okay I'm gonna reverse my opinion a little here. I assumed the new Ranma anime was shit because it's a Netflix series which usually implies slop but I watched it and it's actually quite good. Visually it's nice, well drawn, pretty colours, good backgrounds, keeps most of the nudity and naught humour. I enjoyed it. Soundtrack is a little bland compared to the older version but otherwise it's good.

It messes with the material to please modern western gender politics to the point of outright censorship.

I don't give the faintest fuck about how pretty the colors are. That is utterly superficial.

My expectations of video game adaptations in general are extremely low.
The number of good ones can be counted on a single hand. Two if you are very lax on defining good. Vast majority take tons of "liberties" to the point it at times doesn't even resemble the source material in a lot of video game adaptations. So it doesn't surprise me that DMC turned out the way it did.

In Japanese, people sometimes like using numbers in place of normal characters, kind of like in English when people write "2 hot 4 you" or something.

You often see this in Japanese online usernames. Sometimes a username that seems like nonsensical numbers might actually be spelling out a word.

Here is a list of numbers and the sounds they're often used to make:
>0 お
>1 い
>2 につ
>3 みさ
>4 し
>5 こご
>7 な
>8 はばぱはちばちぱち
>9 く
>10 と

Here are some examples of how they're used:
>8888 ぱちぱちぱち (pachipachi, clapping onomotopea)
>072 オナニー (onani, word for masturbation)
>3150 さいこう最高 (Saikou, meaning best or great)

So they use them in place of their pronunciation instead of the letter their shape resembles like here in the west? For example I would expect them to use 5 instead of ち or　ら and 3 instead of ろ or る.
Also that pic is very funny, too bad he had to summon a き　out of nowhere for it to work

I'm a sucker for the rule of cool so my favorites are Final Wars and those with Mechagodzilla, especially the original one from 1974. On the same note, and despite not being strictly /jp/, I also like Pacific Rim a lot.

vs Mechagodzilla was insane since it was the first Godzilla movie to have blood in it. Also in the sequel it introduced one of the coolest kaiju, who sadly never reappeared in anything ever again. Well, movie wise.

Final Wars was great cause it at least gave a very small cameo to my favorite enemy kaiju, Hedorah.

Anne is described as lively in the novel. For her to possess such an outward enthusiasm from the start is necessary to set her apart from the reserved people of Avonlea to better illustrate her development in to a quite and polite young lady. Remember that in this scene Anne believes she's finally being adopted in to a loving home in a beautiful community, a happiness she's never known before. It's only appropriate that she be ecstatic, even if it makes her appear feral when jumping around while Matthew is stunned and still.
