Pretty great ride.

I still remember the threads from when it was airing. After hospital episode and the start of the 3rd arc episodes couldn't come any sooner.

Great ost too, and surprisingly impressive in art and animation, despite all the QUALITY.

8/10, great anime.

Lots of flaws, but what it did great goes off the scale. I'd give it a 10/10, but then someone would point out flaws and tell me it ain't perfect. I'll just say it's one of all the time greats.
Rakugo from this year wishes it could be this good. Although it was great

Great world that is leagues above most shows. A lot of the characters were bland though, ruining the impact of some scenes because I didn't care for them enough. Even then we're lucky to have something like this made nowadays.

>A lot of the characters were bland though, ruining the impact of some scenes because I didn't care for them enough.
You are right, and a lot of people agree with this, but I think the point was that Saki did care about them.

I mean Shun and Maria's role in the story is to have Saki exposed to karma demons and fiends personally (it's no coincidence that they get to read the repective stories at school), and their deaths serve to break her spirit, and further destroy her ideal peaceful world she knew from her childhood.

Tomiko, her parents and all the other deaths that occur in succession during the last arc (hospital girl, pineapple eyes, schol guy, Inui) is just to send her into despair and show how much of a threat Squealer was. All of it culminates in Saki refusing to let Satoru die, because he is the last pilar of the world she knows and in which she grew up. I think their deaths are not meant to be tragic because of the characters themselves, but because they matter to Saki who is telling her story.

>>147357432
To be honest, most people in real life, even people you go out with inb4 implyings that you don't have friends are dull or uninteresting. But they make good enough company and work in your company. And that's enough. Saki was an exceptional individual in a pile of mediocrity. I found all the characters around her reminiscent of "that guy" or "quirky girl". And for me that was enough. Yes, they could've developed them more, but it's more of a bonus rather than "characters are bad" flaw.

8/10, if not 9/10. It's pretty funny how /a/ was determined to hate this show at the time because of episode 8, though.

Solid 6-7/10 until "that" episode, then it tanked straight to fucking 2/10. Degenerate edgy garbage.

5/10

decent premise, ruined by the awful presentation and pacing

>>147357628
>awful presentation

>>147357594
/a/ still hates it because of that episode, as well as pretty much everyone else I've talked to. They took a chance with it, and failed.

Maybe in 50 years it would have been received better when that shit becomes the norm.

>>147357758
>in 50 years it would have been received better
No. After the day of the rope, there won't be any public faggotry anymore. Neither here nor in Japan.

Incidentally, the show is still awesome.

It might have managed to fool some fujoshis into watching the show, but homosexuality is still treated as a phase characters grow out of, and as an aberration on the level of mind control, genetic engineering, and eugenic infanticide. It's far from gay propaganda.

7/10 at its best

The pacing ruined what could have been a real masterpiece. But unfortunately, lots of major events felt either really rushed or just took forever to get through. Also the colonies weren't interesting at all and their drama played a central part in the story.

>>147351029

Do you just invent your own world history? Or more likely you gauge how bad something is by how often you hear about it rather than factual analysis.

There have been the fewest conflicts between states in the last 500 years than there have been in any such interval since their creation.

Would you really want to swap place with someone of equal socioeconomic status 100 years ago? 200 year ago? 300?

I have already done my research, sperg. Reminder to lurk for a few years before posting, we don't spoonfeed here.

The first episodes had terrible pacing. Was about to drop it and then it started to tell you a little bit about what was actually happening. They should at least left the parts where they showed the old world over the years for later (I mean the part where they show people clapping and shit like that)

I understand she didnt want satoru to die by why the fuck did she just use fire. She could have used telekinesis to grab the bottle midair. Or used some kind of force push to prevent the poison from reaching him. Using fire was forced stupidity.

>>147363693
You understand that every state was nearly constantly in a state of severe conflict 1,000+ years ago right? you should look into the Plantagenats as an example, beause their wars over succession are fairly interesting and serve as an example of the type of normal everyday conflicts you'd see.

Take the U.S. While thought of mainly as a single nation, it's incredibly huge. Texas alone is around the 27th largest nation in the world. These 50 states are all at peace with each other, operating as a single nation. This would be mostly impossible. The Mongols and Rome are maybe standouts, but they grew largely through empire expansion by ongoing conflicts with other entities.

WW1 and WW2 are some of the most severe conflicts in terms of absolute people killed, but when represented as a percent of global population, they drop down much much further.

There are several conflicts today. But they are rarer and less severe.

>>147364343
Yeah, and if you clicked the link you would have seen many sources for what I had said. But you are a leftist, you try to deflect and avoid topics when you have been proven wrong. So, I am done with you.

>>147364402
Are you talking states, or nations? Because I assumed you meant the world as a whole. Battles are not 2 masses of people running at eachother with bayonets anymore. The entire world is at war. I assume you aren't as dense as that other anon to know that. The only reason masses of people aren't all dying at once is because technology has evolved.

Have you been living under a rock? The nation is completely divided thanks to the "progressives" making everything about race and inciting violence. We are very near another civil war at this point.

>>147364647
>We are very near another civil war at this point.
Nah. There would be no profit in it.

>>147364701
There's already been battles, thankfully most of them have just been mob violence, but there's been a few cases lately of crazy niggers going on shooting sprees against cops and whites after being motivated by BLM and other hate groups. It only takes 1 spark.

9/10
if you skip the gay part 10/10, the last 4-5 episodes were absolute magistral tier

>Are you talking states, or nations?
Honestly it gets a bit fuzzy, also over the definition of what constitutes a "war."

Part of my point is that You can look at the U.S. as a whole and say it has been involved in several conflicts, but that the U.S. isn't at war with ITSELF is fairly amazing compared to the rest of history. That California isn't trying to invade and annex Nevada, both having areas and populations the size of other nations, is amazing. The same is true for other large nations like Russia, China. Even the E.U. to an extent, even with the problems it's currently having still has the Schengen Area.

Go back a few thousand year and you'd be at war with the next tribe just a few miles over.

>>147364835
>if you skip the gay
It's only one episode, right?

>>147364647
>We are very near another civil war at this point.
I think this implicitly makes my point. That you would consider simple disagreements to be the penultimate of conflict by today's standards shows just how much they've changed over time.

If "civil war" isn't a massive armed conflict between multiple swaths of the population anymore, just words, then that shows how much violence has been toned down.
