I want to properly make love to Chiri Kitsu!

2006-2011 Shaft was the best, nowadays they just are just Aniplex bitches and keep milking the Monogatari license

Pani Poni Dash is better. Better OPs too.

>>149451603
Best SHAFT OP is Maria Holic in terms of stylistic animation I think.

I like how they adapted to Kumeta's style, like using these panning shots for pages when the characters spanned across multiple panels.

I have to say the clearly did a much better job than PA with Uchouten Kazoku of adapting his designs and still keeping their essence regardless of how dependent they have become on that Watanabe style nowadays.

I really enjoy "3-gatsu no Lion" this season, though

Maria Holic OP is actually ridiculously fucking catchy

>>149450626
Bullshit nostalgia post. Shaft were always trash.

>>149450957
Faggots also forget that they also kept milking SZS until nobody cared anymore.

That OP is so beautiful.

>>149453341
Indeed it is.

It's among the best Shaft OPs of all time

their 00s stuff really does have minimal animation

The designs they used for Uchouten Kazoku fit the show very very well though. Kumeta's designs were ok for book covers, but really it's best that they changed it for animation. His designs still had a strong influence in the ones they used, and they turned out great, so it's the best of both worlds.

I asked the president of Shaft about more SZS at akibafest. He said they want to do it but need fan support. So if you want them to finish adapting everything, let them know.

>>149454002
You're in the wrong thread, you meant to post that comment in a Kyoani thread

>>149454250
I'd cry a little if they adapted the entire mango. I'd also probably shell out the ~$300 bucks for a box set.

The Bangaichi version of Ringo Mogire Beam is pretty tough competition

>>149457217
I'm more partial to Ringo, not to mention that for Bangaichi they used the full version of the song and it's even more choke full of references and inside jokes

watching Akage no Anne makes me appreciate Kafukas character more since she was based off Anne.

The only talent they have left is Oishi and Takeuchi. Oishi was screwed for half a decade and Takeuchi is underutilized, it's a shame.

>>149454002
I don't see anything wrong with this. Shaft is at its best when it goes for style over substance.
The heavy handed approach they started using after 2009 was the cancer that killed the studio.

>>149450952
That "vector" is not done properly

I like soremachi more to be honest.

Shame it'll never get a second season.
