Here's a question, why was this animated?
Yes it's a beautiful masterwork of craft and skill, but in what way did the medium help the storytelling? Everything could have been acted out instead and shot live action.
Try to answer something other than just "2D>3D"

Have you ever seen a good live action mahou shoujo? Exactly.
Tokushit doesn't count.
>>
>>157609752
This is a really odd example series to use.
>Mahou Shoujo are traditionally animated
>MadoMagi draws a lot of its imagery and personality from other anime that came before it
>It's supposed to have a pure/impure visual contrast which is more effective when animated
>Liveaction for a show like this would need a lot of CG. Very expensive, not very effective

Wait a minute, where the fuck are they getting all this shitty boats from? Why do they keep breaking? Why is each group too autistic or stupid to have someone else able to fix them? How would Kerry even get into this kind of situation in real life?

Yes the opening arc is a little slow, but it gets better. The current anime is very good, just start from episode one and get some popcorn.

Not bad at all. Not the most creative manga out there with plenty of tropes, but it was good fun back when I read it a few years back. Sometimes you just want to read some simple fun.
>>
like all shonen mangas, at some point (very early in this case) it all become too exaggerated and ridicolous. the "oh look there is a monster stronger than the one before repeat x100" formula.
plus, characters stereotyped, story not very interesting.
the only good thing was the idea, after 10 issues it already began to feel boring

Is Piccolo the most well designed character in anime history? Purely from a visual standpoint, he's always stood out to me from other anime characters, both in Dragon Ball Z and other popular series at the time. There was something about seeing Piccolo's design back in the day in commercials for DBZ that made me watch the show.
A green dude isn't that wild or imaginative in design terms, but a lot of little details help bring him together. The protruding eyebrow ridges, pointed ears, deep voice, and stoic nature give him an almost mystic quality. Not to mention his iconic and very visually distinct outfit. I remember thinking as a kid that Piccolo's outfit was the coolest clothing I'd ever seen.
Do you agree? If not, which characters do you think are designed extremely well form a mainly visual standpoint?

either him or Cell

>>157608514
I think the enemy design as a whole was really on point in Dragon Ball. Freiza's original form, Cell, and Buu were all so visually memorable.
>>
tbqh I wouldn't say he was the most iconic character in his own series

God an idle question I've been pondering while watching anime of late. What is the Japanese predilection for foreign characters having more than two names, using all names when announcing themselves?
I've never seen the logic.
Picture only related because... there's three of them and I had nothing relevant to post.

Why doesn't anyone use the Holy Grail to become a cross-world hopping omnicidal monster and just genocide humanity in various timelines?
Or would Allaya summon Counter Guardians during the Grail War to stop the wish from occurring in the first place?

I always had this pet theory that besides the pendant, the reason why EMIYA gets summoned to the 5th grail war is precisely to prevent shit like Kotomine hijacking the grail or the whole heaven's feel scenario from happening
