MONSTER

Overated shit

>>136009781
Should have never gone past being a manga, then I could reasonably ask you to explain to me a better manga, and I would say 20th Century Boys.

Mobile Suit Gundam 0079

Weren't they making an HBO show out of this? What happened to that?

>>136009972
I think they are still working on it,

I have this on my backlog, but I can't seem to make myself watch it. Hell, I own the first six volumes of the perfect edition releases of the manga, and I can't bring myself to read them. What the hell is wrong with me? I usually jump at the chance for this kind of shit.

hasn't seen it before, pleb

Gone the way of the HBO Dark Tower series. Stuck in development hell. Though Dark Tower is supposed to make it's way out soon.

It's a painfully exact shot-for-shot remake of the manga - they may as well have just held a camera over the shoulder of someone reading the tankobons. It's one of the most redundant anime ever made.

20th Century Boys was more deserving of an anime than Monster ever was.

>>136009781
Just finished watching this today. It's top tier but also had its flaws especially with the ending. The characters are some of the best in anime though. Sure beats the shitty anime that gets churned out these days, that's for sure.

20th Century Boys was poorly-planned garbage.

Monster was far more solid.

>>136012045
You can't say that with the kind of shitty ending Monster had.

>20th Century Boys was poorly-planned garbage.
No, it's not that. It's the way it ended. Monster was excellent.
>>136012095
What? I liked the ending.

>voice acting, animation, color, music, and OPs/EDs hold no value
come on now anon

the way ED 1 used the haunting background song with the storybook's illustration was nothing short of excellent. The anime is worth if for that alone

Some random guy comes and shoots him while Tenma is still in the middle of trying to find a solution. I wouldn't call that well-written.
After going rapidly through the pages of the last volumes I have to say it wasn't as bad as I remembered it being though.

it was symbolic an shit tho. I liked it to be honest since it showed that Tenma didn't have to be take on the burden of ousting Johan, the personification of evil, by himself. The man was Johan's sins catching up to him in a way

>>136012415
Irony.

Tenma's moral dilemma was solved anyway later on, when he had to choose whether to operate on Johan again or not.

>>136013556
Deciding on whether or not to save him is a different dilemna than deciding on whether or not to kill him though.

20th Century Boys future anime adaptation.

>>136013788
If Parasyte and Ping Pong got an adaptation as late as 2014, I guess we can hope.

>>136013788
>>136013866
It was pretty popular, right? Even some of my friends that don't know shit about anime knows that manga. Maybe there's hope.

>>136009972
>>136010181
HBO is not happening. They are pitching it to others now.

>>136009781
Legend of the Galactic Heroes, for starters.

Is this still on Netflix?

Netflix doesn't seem to have any good anime. At least not on the bar that it shows. Just some tits and emo.
