What do they have to do in Episode 2 to make this interesting, after introducing a bland cast of leads in a somewhat excitable but ultimately simple episode?

>>143918277
The average Japanese LN writer is not some literary genius being held down by his editors and is probably closer to just your typical writing hack who churns out reams of text. Removing one generic concept (harem) just doesn't guarantee you'll get some experimental or well done breakout storyline since the writer is still confined to the limits of the LN genre he is familiar with.

The sad thing about this is if Qualidea Code flops it'll just discourage anyone else from pursuing these types of storylines/mixed casts with non-harem elements.
>>
I like how this trash was shat out in a season where another non-harem LN, which is probably better written than this, Alderamin is airing as well.
>>
>>143918881
I just hope it doesn't flop.
>>
>>143918945
You know, honestly I'm watching this because I know this will be the cliched light novel shit. The biggest issue is that the three writers have a different in concern with the tone their trying to set in their sector. The DAL seems to be the one doing more comedy and yuri, Henneko is more hotblooded shounen, and I have no fucking clue about Oregairu's section since the LN for that isn't even released.

Promotion for Aniplex shows have staff and producers lying through their teeth constantly. Remember when Jun Maeda and the staff said they'd learned they're lessons from Angel Beats for Charlotte and then proceeded to make literally the exact same mistakes. That's just one example, they always fucking lie to get attention for their shows so they sell a little better.
>>
>>143920670
This is haremception, you have 3 pairs of mcs (guy, guy, girl), each of them have their own group and harem by themselves, plus the main heroine of each one who follows them, after the first episode you can fucking see that one of the mcs will end being the savior of the show making the bitches on the other groups wet for him and the lazy faggot will end being his second best friend, it's so fucking obvious, they joined 3 harems into a new one and pretend it is something extraordinary.
>>
>>143922391
I dont think anything can be as bad as chaos dragon.
>>
>>143918881

This. I hope some day dumb anime fans can get past their hard on for both Light Novel and Visual Novels and inexplicably putting them on some sort of pedestal. Literally the only reason they write scripts for anime now is for promotional purposes because the late night anime industry has committed to this model of marrying itself with the LN and VN industries and mainly going after their otaku

Only watching this to see the edgelord MC when he eventually causes the death and/or suffering of people he care about (the girl), or his own team mates. He will then be BTFO'ed by the lazy chiba guy, as he realises what a piece of shit he is and begins to despair.

Then, I will drop the show so that I wont have to see his redemption which inevitably will come.

>>
>>143923791
Even if they don't lust for him the show made him the mc and put him on a harem setup, there are a shitton of harems which focus on the mc being the white knight who saves demoiselles in distress without requiring a romantic subplot, but hey, this place is filled with shitposters and newfags so the only type of harem they have as reference are series like IS, Asterisk, etc where the mc is circlejerked by the girls.

To be honest I couldn't like any of the characters, they're just way too bland and boring, especially main two.

Taku Iwasaki is definitely going downhill lately thanks to how Aniplex uses him and I can't remember him having a particular standout soundtrack since Battle Tendency. I remember being really unimpressed with the Mahouka OST as well which just never felt like a good fit during a lot of scenes though that show had nearly zero effort put into it by anybody involved. Aniplex somehow manages to ruin almost every popular artist they come into contact with and either just don't seem to know how to use them properly or don't care as long as their name is attached to the project for sales. I also still don't get why people still fall for their hyping and "Holy fuck animu fans look at all these popular people on board" way of designing shows either. You'd think more people would have figured out that's just what they do and that any sort of planning or production concerns start and stop with promoting their names and having some cliche fanservice.

>>143925078

DAL's author is a massive faggot with shit taste, Oregairu's made two boring as fuck characters.
Henneko's author made the only good characters.

>that difference of points

Hime is OP as fuck.
>>
>>143926643
That's why they used the character of hanneko as the mc of this show and used the other main characters as his side harem in the anime story.
>>
>>143926822
If anything, Hime seems to be too stupid/innocent to actually be into yuri. She's pretty much the "I want everyone to be happy" sort of girl.
>>
>>143926852
Hime is the one with the huge ass AOE attack. Of course she's going to have the most score, since she can pretty much AOE little shits out of existence. Asuha though seems to be a better fighter and is probably a battle maniac.
>>
>>143926593
Not who you're replying to, but the MC's a boring cunt rather than an enjoyable cunt. He doesn't go far enough in his shit-talking to come off as actually arrogant and just ends up looking insecure, which could be interesting if they do something with it but I have zero confidence in the writing so far. I guess it's still early days and it wasn't awful enough for me to drop it yet.
>>
>>143926908

That's the standard affair for "yuri" these days. Just girls being close because friendship/duty and wanting each other to be happy, without any of the physical or sexual attraction between two horny teens that want to bang

I'm not holding my breath or anything.
>>
>>143926908
Yep but look at how many yurifags are in this thread, showing up because Aoi Yuuki tweeted that this would have yuri.
Especially when it's written by fucking harem LN authors of all things.
It will probably only be some sort of reverse harem and no development, because yeah she's too obliviously genki. I didn't even get that vibe from her second in command, she seemed more like a doting knight or older sister archetype.
Really I don't know why they even claimed it as such.
>>
>>143927059
She used to be older.
>>
>>143927059
She cryoslept longer than the MC so they're the same age now..
>>
>>143926894
Ironic because Henneko is probably the least popular of the three, yet somehow wrote the best characters.
>>
Hahaha, oh wow.
>>
>>143924783
This.
>>
>>143927083
Yeah, okay anon.
>>
>No ecchi

>>
Is this the most unfitting soundtrack of the season?
>>
>>143926960
But he's proactive and honestly not beta, albeit tryhard. I liked the scene where he handed his second in command her clothes, then water on the train. They had good chemistry.
He also reminds me of based Strongest man in the world from Rokka no Yuusha.
He's a pretty good MC but obviously flawed, I did like how conceited he was.

This scene >>143925994 was particularly good.
>>
Okay, I'm two minutes into the first episode and have already seen:

>tragic flashback
>military killed
>enemies are random monsters
>MC crying in the middle of a ruined city
>little girl with the crying MC
>world 'ends'

Should I keep watching this? I'm guessing MC is going to end up in some school or place where special people go to fight the monsters, and he'll gain a harem at some point.
>>

If you seriously think it is, you should prepare for disappointment in advance.
>>
>>143926460

oh noes, not a Big O ending, that would suck shitty goat ass

>>143927083
Because of the prequel LN about that couple, which read like a boy meets main heroine and they inevitably become an item LN scenario, just it turned out in the 2nd volume to actually have been girl meets girl.

Not being beta =/= being better.
He's just as generic as the your average harem protag, just in his own way i.e cunt, arrogant, no-fun allowed, spouts some generic childish shit like "hurr I'm better than than everyone!" and so on.
>>
>>143927412
You get 15 minutes of him being a dullard with his dimwit bishoujo partner.
>>
>>143927434
hey at least they fucked at the end of that LN, refreshing to see MC plough the girl. points to Watari for that

Hachiman-type boned the Yukino/Iroha hybrid, the Chigusa in this anime are their twin children is what I'm guessing
>>
>>143927642
Honestly I'd argue he's even worse, he's a lot more annoying and so far has hogged more screentime than your average generic harem MC.

Hopefully it'll focus more on the other characters in the following episodes.
>>
>>143927505
That's basically what I thought from the first episode.
Yet we have people like >>143916515 who are obviously watching this based on a whim, as it's not their usual anime to watch.

Ichiya is an egocentric touma and the mc of this show, he have his own harem and friends on his own ln, his main girl is a non shitty index, maihime is the biribiri with her group of female friends, kasumi is a shitty accelerator to antagonize with Ichiya, with a incest pandering instead of loli pandering, now they are all together in a main story where everyone will be part of Ichiya's harem while he saves the world with the help of the other heroines, it's so obvious they tried to do a non index index with another generic setting.

>>
>>143927642
>Wanting a beta
This MC is great the way he is, obviously we'll see why he's arrogent later on but atleast he's doing shit
>>
Going standard LN logic, here's how character development will go for everyone:

MC: will learn some humility but bounce back to save everyone at the end

Canaria: will get her shit together at some point but will stil rely on MC's help because bimbos can't be the hero

Gunslut: will learn to respect her bro, but will probably still give him shit, just less mean spirited

8-man: will have a moment of manliness, either by standing up to MC or doing some heroic shit, before going back to being a lazy cunt again (assuming he survives)

Lesbians: since they started out so fucking strong, they will be used to showcase when a real strong enemy comes, and probably get BTFO. Then the MC will get a powerup, becoming stronger than them and beat this enemy/boss

Plot twist: they're still in cryo sleep
>>
>>143927881
Doubt it was him honestly.
He's the worst writer of the three.
>>
this is bad
>>
>>143927938
Out of the three, which LN is the most well received?
>>
>>143928040
If anything, MC and 8-man will probably be forced to team up to save their respective girls. Also the reason why 8-man's score is so low is probably because he supports his sister, but unlike Canaria, only his sister.

This entire fucking LN is Hotaru being autistic.

But since the anime is her post-brainwashing, we won't even get to see the autism. Just juvenile humor

This isn't about love.

In the LN, the Katana girl is brainwashed into thinking she's someone else, and that Hime needs to be eliminated.

Which means by LN logic, she has to observe her first to evaluate if she needs to be killed. So the entire volume was Hotaru stalking Hime like a retard.

And also this whole time everyone thought Hotaru was a guy because the way she dressed / acted.

Silver-haired Kotori is a real boss. Tachibana's subconscious desire to write commander Kotori was the main heroine manifests itself in Qualidea Code.
>>
>>143928040
This is standard fiction logic, not just LNs.
>>
>>143923596
Well, the authors are:

Sagara (Henneko)
Tachibana (Date-A-Live)
Watari(Oregairu).

All three of them write generic haremshit. Date a Live and Henneko have absolutely nothing special.
Oregairu is also generic, but I'd say the author at least tries to create characters with more depth.
I think maybe Watari would be the one who'd make fun of generic LNs.

Aniplex ruins artists through overuse and insistence on vocal stuff all the time. I notice Iwasaki seems obsessed with this sort of Muslim Call to Prayer sound in a lot of his recent OSTs that even got one of his soundtracks censored.

Kajiura and her generic Latin chanting movie trailer hype music now too. Did anyone see the trailer for the new SAO movie, there's nothing even remotely distinguishable about the OST sample in it nor does it really feel like the proper fit for what the franchise is actually about and it literally could have just as easily been lifted from any of her works from this decade so far as it could be something "new". The inverse ratio to how much effort these people put into their soundtracks nowadays and the terrible mixing and usage of them in shows versus how much enduring praise they get from fans becomes more insane with each successive project. I'm fully convinced either Kajiura or Sawano could release an OST comprising 20 tracks of fart noises and some vocalized stuff and people would still praise the shit out of them and they'd sell like 10,000 copies.

Might be because he's being overworked. Notice how he's been composing for shows each season ever since Nanatsu no Taizai. Last season it was Kabaneri and before that he did Owari no Seraph. Now he's doing Thunderbolt Fantasy, a few months later it's Nanatsu no Taizai S2, Attack on Titan S2 and then finally Ao no Exorcist.

That's a lot of shows to keep up with.

So what's up with Canaria? She seemed very composed at the start of the episode considering her city is being destroyed, and most of her family and friends are likely dead.

>>
>>143932726

More like they just make note of whoever or whatever is currently popular and make bullshit shows with their names and concepts attached to them. Sawano's NzK vocal collaboration project is literally signed under Epic Records Japan which is a division of Sony Music so I guess they just keep using him cause he's popular and technically in house. They really don't seem to think through much of anything they make beyond that sort of reasoning these days, even fans in Japan are starting to comment on it more and more in the past few seasons.

I'm not sure making three authors write each faction is a good idea, it feels as a disjointed cast which makes some sense but they also cockblock each other from standing out, hopefully they develop some chemistry in the future.

I have a feeling that It's not his fault. If a director says "I want the sound you used for SnK. Do that stuff for me." He can't exactly turn down the work.
He's like anime's Hans Zimmer, who also used to be much more varied and creative, but was forced into a niche after making an iconic sound for Nolan.

The only thing that can set this apart from a standard LN adaptation is a decent conclusion. But I have a feeling they're going to leave it open ended to market LNs, just like they do with adaptations.

His OSTs usually sell between 8k and 20k (his best selling album is the SnK OST which sold 63k, and a few OSTs sold < 3k). His OPs and EDs between 20k and 30k.

I noticed that his best selling OSTs were the ones for 2 cours anime with many insert songs (SnK, GC, KlK, A/Z) and Unicorn's OST (but Unicorn was extremely popular). On the other hand his OSTs with less insert songs usually bombs (Nanatsu no Taizai, Owari no Seraph).

Kabaneri is a bit special since it still has many insert songs but was only one cour. Sold 8k so far.

So yes he's bankable but he's not that big.

This, plus the sound directors always going for the epich choirs or the insert songs. So many great tracks left for dead in the second OST. The only time I really felt that someone was giving direction to Sawano for the OST was NnT.

Why does people bash harems so hard? Is not the harem part what makes a show bad, is the lazyness in the rest of the execution. This show has all the lazyness from harem shows, but without harem, that doesn't really make a difference.

Because may be this show is not a harem but there are harems (and not a very good ones like Asterisk or Rakudai) are far better than this one in lot of things: action, sound direction, even the MC and generic tsundere from those harems are likeable compared with the MC and airhead from this show.

Jesus, even Hundred that was one of the worst battle harem anime was still better than this show when it comes to technomagic action.

What I'm trying to say is that not having a harem doesn't make a bad show better.

I disagree. Aoi is one of the reasons I started watching this show but I was not really impressed by her performance.
Anzai and Fukuhara sounded great though.

It's not, they're doing this so they can get as many popular names on the project and appeal to their fanbases as possible. Too many cooks in the kitchen usually results in trainwrecks and nonsensical all over the place plotting and characterization. This show has too much commercially popular crap being thrown at it already in the first episode even by Aniplex standards and if it's only 12 episodes which is a pretty safe assumption then really just do the math. At least more and more people are finally starting to know what to expect out of the Sat12 Seasonal Aniplex Trainwrecks now. I can't help but notice that the buzz for this going in wasn't nearly as big as it's been for past examples like A/Z, Charlotte, Fate UBW, Mahouka, SAO, Kiznaiver, Sekai Seifuku etc where people kept going in expecting nothing less than the greatest piece of genre fiction ever assembled cause it has x popular LN/VN author like Gen Urobuchi, Yuuki Aoi in the cast or Sawano handling the music or something.

Speaking of Aniplex what the fuck is going on with Rewrite? Unless it's got bullshit hidden sales out of storefront again like Charlotte it's looking to way underperform compared to Planeterian out of David Production and Kadokawa which is getting more the reception you'd expect from Key fanboys. How do you look to be fucking up something as surefire as a Key adaptation after only a couple episodes to the point where hardly anybody even really seems to be talking about it and those who are aren't exactly singing it's praises?

These are not mutually exclusive especially in the current market

I think he's the character designer.

>>143934307
I don't remember that much hype for Sekai Seifuku. I like UBW though, and of course there was hype for that after Fate/Zero did so well and when you compare it to DEEN/Stay Night's UBW

>Speaking of Aniplex what the fuck is going on with Rewrite?
Anime-original 12 episode bullshit nobody cares about. Even the shitty Little Busters adaptation didn't go full anime-original

What happened?
>>
>>143934205
Yeah. Vivalabiba was my favorite track on the Kabaneri OST, and it was never used in the series.
>>
How do you even co-write a novel?

>>143934110

I think the reason he does so many vocal songs is that vocal albums regularly do way better than just straight BGM in sales with rare exceptions from mega popular things like Love Live and Gundam The Origin coming to mind. Also Aniplex is really big on throwing as many potentially popular elements at things at the same time as possible based on the kind of proven theory that'll mean better sales so you can usually expect his albums to have no less than a few collaboration artists attached to them like Egoist, Kobayashi and Ceui. I'm honestly surprised they haven't tried mashing him up with LiSA yet.

I honestly don't see what was so impressive with her performance here. It's so dime a dozen.
>>
>>143934459
There's a whole post about it from the authors. It basically boiled down to them drinking and having this awesome idea and the DAL author figuring out most of it and having the other authors chip in with some characters.
>>
>>143934571
Yeah, I figured, writing anything with other people always ends up a mess, either they're retarded and can't write or you have to compromise and include their shitty ideas so you can say you cooperated.
>>
>>143934526
Seiyuufags.

>>143934571
So when a bunch of generic harem writers get together and get drunk you get a generic shounen battle series?
>>
I don't know about you guys but I did enjoy this. Looking forward to more Qualidea threads. See you next week.

Nothing? Anon just mentioned Aoi was on point and nothing else. Nobody said that she was "impressive" this episode.
>>
>>143934526
I said she was on point, as in it was what I was expected and good, not that it was the best vocal performance ever
>>
>>143934671
Say what you want, but the LNs they wrote don't seem generic to me.

>>143934432

It had a little bit because it had one of the Type/Moon writers doing the scripts and was clearly marketed to be somewhat big if not one of the next big things like most of their stuff is since they even went out of their way to get Maaya Sakamoto and Yuki Aoi to do the theme songs.

Needless to say it bombed though and he hasn't worked in anime since (Aniplex is literally the only party that would be interested in hiring someone like Meteo Hoshizora on their theories of VN circle fanboyism anyway and if his first project was a flop then welp) and all anybody remembers from it was the lolibait designs. To me it's basically A-1's Sacred Seven.

Anyway god I hope for a day if/when noitaminA is freed from their clutches as the block went to shit fucking hard since they took over as the sole contributor to it.

Each author is writing their own novels for the series focusing on the characters from a single city.

noitaminA's quality really has gone down, their line up for the next year is just depressing.

I'll give her this, regardless of how much of a shit everyone else involved in one of these gives Yuki Aoi always tries. She and her agency really could do a hell of a lot better lately with what they chose to sign on for. Just because Sony has a massive raging hard on for her ever since Madoka Magica became a hit doesn't mean she has to be in virtually every show they producer or at least shouldn't.

This doesn't apply to TERA.
Please, nerf gunners.

That sweet Kantoku

I do hope the three cities keeps having petty rivalries till the end, it's much more interesting than getting along to beat final boss stuff.

>>143934871
Now this art looks like some shitty lovecom

>>143934856
Aoi should totally do OP/ED songs more often, though.

>>143935147
Yeah, it's interesting. Wondering how this story will go.
>>
>>143935147
You know they'll end up getting along in the end. Would be fine if they kep`t insulting each other though.
>>
>>143934871
Oh fuck, Kantoku is doing the art for Sagara Sou's novel? So it's the full Henneko team. Sweet.
>>
>>143935147
That should be the point of the ranking stuff. That was some fun stuff.

As always blame fucking Aniplex and their need to have everything revolve around in theory commercially safe bullshit. TV Tokyo had to have known what they were getting when they basically sold the block out to them though which sorry but that's what they did for the promise of more directly profitable shows if you read some of their interviews talking about the changes the block has undergone in recent years. Too bad Aniplex went to shit fucking hard in the last few years so it basically just means the block sacrificed any sort of integrity and the stated goal of late night programming for non-otaku audiences by partnering up with an entity that stands for the exact opposite of that and is only giving them meager gains at best.

Worthwhile read. I still think Battery has a least a moderate chance of being decent and not just pure fujoshibait but they'll probably still somehow fuck it up. Everything else lined up for it looks like hot garbage on arrival though.

Seriously not trying to troll but man that was an awful song and out of Flying Dog of all publishers. Thanks for diminishing my impression of Yuki Aoi

Pupa was fucked due to being 3minute episodes commercial for manga.
Many good directors made shit choices like Mushishi's guy also did Aku no potato

This show seems surprisingly okay so far.
