The show will be terrible. Do yourself a favour and read the manga.

I just hope they don't over-SHAFT it.

What's up with their faces?

>not Shinbo
Dropped harder than your mother dropped you.

according to spoilers, a love trinagle between rei's teacher(guy with glasses), akari, and shimada started. both guys are interested in her.

The colors look absolutely terrible, what the fuck were they thinking?
And the whole thing seems extremely low budget. It makes me miss JC Staff.

>>148087960
Another sisters arc?
Not that is was unexpected, but will Kyoko and Nikaido ever be relevant again? They've done nothing in 6 volumes.

>>148088036
Thank you for your shitaste.

This is like boku no pico, but for faggots right?

>>148087904
but if it's not, how come there's no series director credit anywhere

>>148088124
>Another sisters arc?
Not surprised that most of the focus is all on Akari since the last volume ended with Rei making a chart to find her a partner.

I also want more focus on Kyoko too. I haven't found out the rest of the spoilers, so she might've been showed up.

The manga is already terrible

Are you seriously claiming that those flat neon colors look good?
At least they got the backgrounds right.

>>148088255
They do that sometimes. Sasami-san for example was supposed to be a Shinbo directed show until the ending credits were seen nobody else was mentioned anywhere in the PV or website but then it was Naoyuki Tatsuwa who was the actual director.

they should have just got the H&C team, it was a perfect adaptation

What?

>>148088410
too lazy to start

>>148088410
So who does that say it is and whose twitter did you take the image from?

>>148088424
Shaft fanboys are rabid and without taste, what else is new?

>>148088424
H&C was an uninspired boring adaptation with crappy visuals and dull coloring.

>>148088829
But this isn't dull and crappy looking at all, right? >>148088036
Stop posting.

>>148088829
Are you kidding me? The OP is literally one of the most inspired OP's in all of anime history, and the music in general for the series is perfect.

I could go on and talk about the direction and art being wonderful and literal improvements to the source, but you are clearly just a shitposter.

>>148089011
You probably can't though

>>148089011

I need some SHAFT head tilts in my life.

People forget SHAFT exist if you aren't into the Monogatari series.

>>148089011
The OP is a good one, but that's not anime at all.

>>148088903
Looks good.

I mean I wasn't a huge fan of the manga art, so I'm not real worried about the color palatte

What looks good about it?

All the things you don't like.

>>148088903
>>148089607
not him, but instead of dull and crappy some might say soft and easy to look at (alternatively: comfy)

>>148089707
alternatively: die

>>148089753
something something fagtron

>>148089707
But it isn't soft and easy to look at. It's flat, the shading is horrible, looks cheap, and it clashes terribly with the backgrounds.

>>148089849
Thats like your opinion man.

>>148089849
isn't the difference between "soft" and "flat" just whether someone likes it or not?

I see what you mean about the background though
>>148089894
I mean it does look a little cheap

>>148089966
I don't really think anything looks all that bad about it, no cheaper looking than the majority of seasonal anime. There are plenty of people who already decided to hate it before even seeing it though and are just looking for reasons to pick on because it is SHAFT.

>>148087278
i can't really remember, but left girl did jav.

>>148089040
>>148089088
Scenes in the manga fell flat a lot of the time, I'm not saying there weren't good scenes, and that they weren't well done, but often I felt like umino's "loose" art didn't do the scene justice

>>148089894
it objectively clashes with the backgrounds (which look wonderful)

Umino's art is shit anyways, all the characters have ugly wide mouths they look like frogs.

>>148090225
In your opinion it objectively clashes.

>>148090295
No you fucking retard, it is literally the polar opposite of the background. Do you understand the opposite of clashing? It's compliments. Or matches, whichever you want. Which is OBJECTIVELY doesn't do.

Go gargle shinbos balls

the style matches the calmness of that part of the story well, but compare it to another relaxing anime, hidamari sketch
>>148090182
I wasn't a fan of the manga art either, but I wouldn't call the anime art "wonderful" by any means

>>148090335
I don't think it clashes, you are entitled to your opinion that it does though.

>>148087656
SHAFT is a good studio, pleb.

>>148087656
a monogatari-esque toothbrush scene with hinata might make my dick explode

>>148087278
I want to punch all the girls' faces

I hate SHAFT's overdirected masturbatory hipster style and I sincerely hope this will be one of those shows where it doesn't rear its ugly head to often.

>>148090451
One trick pony.
And the one time they don't to use their powerpoint presentation gimmick, the anime looks so cheap it could be made by Toei.

>>148090541
it actually fits here though, have you read the manga?

>>148087278
>favour
Get out, Eurofag.

Last time I checked, the manga hasn't updated anyway.

>>148090541
It's ok anon not everyone can have good taste. Stick with your generic character designs and mediocre art direction.

>>148090517
Fuck off cunt.
>>148090512
The Sangatsus aren't made for lewd.
I swear if some subhuman Shaftfag draws Momo porn I'm gonna find and kill him.

>>148090561
Madoka, Monogatari, Hidamari, SZS, they are definitely not a one trick pony. Try harder faggot.

The art give me a honey and clover kind of vibe for some reason

no shit me too I wonder why

I did, that's why I know that it doesn't.

>>148090761
I did, and that's why I think it does. Guess that is just your opinion then.

>>148090761
why don't you think it fits? it's rather slow paced without a lot of action, so the "overdirecting" gives some interest while they're talking about some random shogi strategy or talking about his relationship with his family
>>148090817
opinion anon, opinions are things you can talk about and discuss you know?

>>148090817
>>148090415
>>148090295
>>148089894
I think I'm starting to see a pattern here.

Umino was the one that wanted SHAFT to work on the anime.

>>148090880
>>why don't you think it fits?
Because it is not like how honey and clover is and that was the best anime ever and I just want a reason to hate this anime because SHAFT are making it but I don't really care about the manga but will now pretend I am a huge fan of the manga who is deeply offended by this adaptation just so I can shitpost on /a/ about SHAFT and maybe get some people mad. I probably wont even watch the anime to be honest just pretend to while trying to derail every thread about it I see with studio shitposting.

>>148090613
The character designs are not done by SHAFT and their art direction is just stuck on being different at all costs so sheep like you can continue to wank over their vapid style-over-substance shows while feeling superior to the other sheep.

>>148091047
>sheep
Except I don't judge a show by the studio like you, so who's the real sheep?

>>148091081
neither are very sheeplike behavior

I WANT ALL OF YOU TO FUCK OFF

I'VE BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THIS FUCKING MANGA TO GET AN ANIME ADAPTATION

I DON'T CARE IF IT FUCKING SUCKS I JUST WANT TO WATCH IT AND DOWNLOAD THE SOUNDTRACK AND BE ABLE TO FINALLY FUCKING DISCUSS THE PLOT ON /a/ BUT NO ALL THE THREADS ARE JUST GOING TO BE FILLED WITH SHITTY TROLLS LIKE THE LAST FIVE MONTHS

>>148091081
Please do continue deceiving yourself of having taste when there is none to be found in the entire industry. It's kinda cute.

>>148091196
Anime adaptions just make discussions 1000% shittier.
Why not just read the manga and discuss that, idiot?

>>148091262
There are many anime that considered art. Watch 1000 series and maybe you can find some.

>>148090889
Doesn't negate the fact that it looks bad.

>>148091047
Hilarious to see someone calling people sheep will spewing shallow uniformed meme opinions all over the thread.

>>148091196
Why do people like you get so worked up over an anime?

You remind me of those autistic fuckers who squeal loudly and run over to the manga section of a Barnes and Noble or a Borders (RIP).

>>148091196
you know the story, of course it's gonna be good

and wait till a few weeks in, angry people usually get bored

>>148091419
Looks pretty good to me. Much better than previous adaptations of her work to anime.

>>148087278
It's only bad if you've read the source material first.

>>148087278
You guys sure love getting mad at good stuff for some reason

>>148092320
Getting mad at everything is the Millenial way of life.
