Daimon 2.0 is the Gurren Lagann of Video Game bosses.

>>275640371
I wouldn't say MGR simply because it doesnt have that same energy. I honestly would say Bayonetta fits the bill a bit more simply due to the scale of it.

>>275640405

>>275641875

LOL

>>275640287
Wonderful 101
MGR a bit
Bayonetta
Asura's Wrath most definitely

In spirit, Wonderful 101 captured the essence of Gurren Lagann the best, though Asura's Wrath is much more Gurren Lagann in it's plot arcs, as well as the DLC ending pretty much being the same as the OVA ending

>>275642041

He ain't cuhrazy and over-the-top. Hard? Sometimes, but not ridiculous. The battle is small in scale, anyway.

Maybe it's overrated shit to you, but it's a classic to me, in these days of "OMG SO SERIOUS DARK AND EDGY" anime, or "OMG SO FUCKIN' CUTE SLICE OF LIFE! ^_^;" anime.

What meme? You're literally arguing about anime and calling someone a beta. You're both betas. You watch jap cartoons and obviously like video games, if you're on /v/. What part of that is a meme?

Shit, I only like Vidya. That at least makes me a LITTLE bit less of a loser than you.

>citizen kane of gaming

I swear to god everyone who throws that around either never saw CK or doesn't understand what it actually did for cinema

the story is good but not great, and isn't what it should be remembered for (though modern critics will felate it endlessly for rosebud). Its remarkably ambitious cinematography is why it became so famous: shots such as a focus on two characters talking while two more are reflected in the window so they could have all 4 in the frame.
This creative camerawork had a huge impact on how movies are made that still influences cinema to this day

a CKoG should be a game that is innovative and ambitious in terms of gameplay and influences future games for years to come
and sadly I would have to apply the term to Halo for popularizing health regen

Also, this scene alone is probably the best in the series.

Watch until at least the time skip. After that it's your call I guess.

Evangelion was fucking shit. Insufferable characters, stupid pretentious plot and names for the monsters, cliche soundtrack, and a rabid fanbase, and the biggest pussy MC to ever fucking exist, god damn even I could do fucking better.

Oh I guess SM too. Sorry, forgot that one!
I recommend playing the rest of SHills without the 'character analysis' angle in mind.

It was about many things, but first and foremost about Angels vs Humans war.
Agendas of various persons and corporations, character development and interaction, weird 'unexplainable' events, finally the psychoanalysis angle and everything else are just parts of a very simple premise.
The way the plot is made if presented is what makes Eva what it is, but on the basic level it's just a mecha anime with a deconstruction twist. It's up to viewer to choose which part to focus on the most, but yeah. It's not any more of a focus than any of the other things

Why is 99% of anime flooded with lighthearted and simple stories then? It's not as if there's a 50/50 divide between serious and nonserious. It's all fluff. Where is anime like the The Wire? The Sopranos? Rome? Where is, you know, some show that will stimulate the parts of my brain that grew after I turned 16? I'm not opposed to shounen or harem or moe or slice of life, I just don't get why that's all anime ever has to be.

The 'disguise' it probably the wrong word I used.
Seeing how Spears move and act on their own, I'm GUESSING this is some kind of a harness. To bring them in, but keep them in check.
This is never explicitly said, but makes sense, and the unweildly shape would be explained - it's basically a big sharp 'suitcase' with two handles.

Yes and no. See what happened to comic books? They evolved into more "mature" and complex stories, involving realistic scenarios and serious drama, like politics, social problems, different cultures; with superhero stuff in them.

Vidya is suffering the same transformation, complex scenarios, stories involving feelings, social issues and stuff mentioned above.

SO what about anime:
>Cringeworthy characters who can't speak without s-s-s-tuttering or BEIGN EXTREMELY LOUD to the girl they like
>Villains edgy as fuck always looking for powahh

There is no anime for adults period. Once you hit 16, you should start feeling shame for watching any kind of cartoon media. At 18 it should cause physical pain, to ensure you aren't degrading in your mental development.

>tfw it was the only anime that piqued your interest so much that you marathoned the whole season in a day
That was a few years ago, I can't do the same now since that whole timeskip shit slows down the series to a crawl for a while and then the anime starts taking itself seriously.
