Vague lame show had a vague lame ending, right? Also the lesbians still on subtext, eighth?
>>
>>151378414
This is by far the biggest disaster of an anime I have ever witnessed. Even shows that start and end pure shit in all regards aren't as bad as Flip Flappers. Literally every aspect of this sow is in the gutter. The director should be ashamed for making an anime this bad, and the studio should go under. This is easily the worst show of the season, maybe worst of the year.
>>
>>151378622
Nah, it's not even bottom three.

Where's that anon from the early Flip Flap threads that would insist this show was the most well planned out anime in years?

I'm watching episode 11 right now and I was feeling like the show was actually wrapping up and connecting the plot points well. How bad are the last two episodes?
>>

Really feeling that career change. RING RING!

>>151378414
I'm actually impressed that it took this long to become a production disaster. Gave me the illusion that 3Hz doesn't suffer from the typical scheduling nightmares.
>>
>>151378681
it's not that, it's just some drama with Oshiyama on twitter that ep13 is struggling.
>>
>>151378622
It's tied with Phantom World.
>>
>>151378681
It has done pretty well yeah. Just shitposting and panicking over the possibility of the final episode being unfinished due to the director just tweeting that "whether we like it or not the final episode will broadcast this week" and the PV at the end of 12 being just storyboards along with a production that has gradually been struggling more and more to get done in time. Most people have no huge issues with the content.
>>
>>151378681
12 had some noticeable visual issues (QUALITY, seemingly-missing cuts, etc.) and a sort of rushed ending. Otherwise it was pretty decent.
>>
>>151378765
I'm amazed that they managed to maintain that degree of quality and attention to detail for like 10 episodes straight before encountering issues
>>
>>151378894

Well I'm glad it's not the story, but I feel bad for the team working on it that they can't deliver a finished finale. Especially since original anime have a hard time doing well to begin with.
>>
>>151378906
It did also have a couple of the best action cuts in the series too.

true enough, though the drawings were not as detailed in those scenes as the action cuts in earlier scenes. I think BD corrections will be able to account for most of the glaring issues.
>>
>>151379086
Well, Twintails looked like shit but it's still not a production disaster, technically. But it still looks like shit, so Oshiyama is kind of honest with his comment.

>>
>>151379181
I don't think we can read too much into the comment to be honest. From all reports of the prescreeningbevent Oshiyama has very high standards for animation. So if you want to be optimistic you could interpret that as him doubting he will be happy with the finished product by his own standards. That is being optimistic though.

They have 4 days to finish this episode and they're not even close to finished.

If you have low standards, I'm sure it'll be fine. But some of us started watching FF because it was high quality in all aspects. I hate watching it degrade when it was so strong for 10 whole episodes.

Not running away from anything. None of that confirms a production disaster in any respect. What you are doing is needlessly panicking.

There is at least one abysmal cut that is like a power point presentation or something. That one with Nyunyu flying.

That's because production disaster is very common. But they went from ahead of schedule into this hell hole, and that's not really uncommon either but this is literally what production disaster means.

>>151380280
It's actually still a 9/10.

Shitposting increased as the worst parts of /a/ caught onto the fact that there were a sizeable group of people having fun that they hadn't ruined yet.

No, you don't get it. What's happening to 3hz now is very common and literally every other studio went through this. And what happening is right now is called fucking mismanagement and shit ass scheduling. But this happens all the time. Sending the tape 1 hour before airing, normal. Finishing editing on the day the show airs, normal.

Production disaster is normal. This is the current situation of the industry. And if you forgot, A-1 production assistant killed himself because of this shitty working condition.

It's the same thing. Scheduling isn't important in itself. Nobody praises a show for how fantastic its scheduling was. It's the fact that poor scheduling leads to poor output that people care about. A production disaster occurs where poor scheduling for example causes hugely detrimental impact on the quality of the end product or even a missed broadcast.

Probably because there are actual people who disliked the new direction of 10-12 but don't feel confident defending their dislike against /a/ and feel like the shitposting gives them some kind of representation.

>>151381890
No I am not agreeing with you. Literally nobody cares about production scheduling as long as it has no impact on the final product besides maybe a few kyoani fanbs who take it as a point of pride that the studio is great at it. Besides that nobody is going "this episode looked great, no faults at all, but it had 10 animation directors so it was a production disaster".

I don't know why that would be the case though when it's not just shitposting we manage to have some very interesting civil discussions about what could be done better.

What the fuck are you talking about? Confident to post an opinion on a fucking anonymous imageboard? Are you Cocona?

There was plenty of negetive critique for the last few episodes and their direction, episode 12 killed the hope some anons have had (mine included but I'm still looking forward to the ending). The worst part is that you fucktards assume everyone with a bad opinion is a shitposter/shipperfag/comfyfag/plotfag or I don't even know. Most of us are disappointed fans.

Production disaster don't always means low quality output. Imas CG have abysmal production and the last episode still looks good. So even if Flip Flap behind the scenes are absolute disaster, it might still looks good.

Plotlines that were foreshadowed never happened so it feels cheap.

Why show a dead girl episode 1 then kill no one? Why allude to papika being a dog then have her be a normal person? Why have yayaka survive a catastrophic cliffhanger? Why introduce a new MC then have her do nothing?

They should have just taken their time, gone through the story at half speed, and let it end in a cliffhanger. It would have been frustrating, but it would be frustrating because it was good.

With this kind of industry, it's not always a guaranteed quality even with big names (which certainly Flip Flap is not). Shows that are good early on and in the middle can become bad at the end.

>>
>>151382558
>Why show a dead girl episode 1 then kill no one?
To show the audience that Papika doesn't care about her partner being dead. Characterization. It also establishes the danger of attempting to enter PI but that's made clear later on.
>Why allude to papika being a dog then have her be a normal person?
I don't think they wanted people to think she actually WAS a dog, just that her personality is similar to that of a dog. Loyal, simple, excitable, energetic, playful. More characterization
>Why have yayaka survive a catastrophic cliffhanger?
I think it would be needlessly cruel to kill her off after the struggle she went through. It gave her the chance to redeem herself and she clearly did.

Papika being loyal as a dog to Cocona is the direct result of being saved from jail by Cocona. This is the plot point.

That's what I have a problem with. I understand ignoring the obvious shitposts of "really feeling that writer change top three not so good aside of its animation" but if 15 different anons said the last Mimi scene sucked hard do they really need to write walls of text for their opinion to count?

First half was great but the second half was very unsatisfying. I had no problem with the actual story but the way it was presented felt lacking and kind of rushed. The part where Papika was mind raped was supposed to be horrifying but it felt off somehow. A decent amount of time was spent on Salt and Sayuri doing almost nothing which could have been condensed to a 10-second montage of their actions with Salt talking about his plans.

Also the way the episode ended felt very anticlimatic, the transformation was sudden with very little time given to make the audience wonder at the new costumes (unlike episodes 1-3 which showcased the transformations beautifully), and was simply no impact behind that final punch, it just sorta happened. I've have very minor peeves with Oshiyama's directing styles here and there but this is the first time it's been a real problem during an episode.

The Mimi plotline would have been fine if they never introduced EvilMimi. It would have been a heartwarming story of an over protective mother learning to let go of her daughter. Instead it's being played out as an evil demon thing that possessed Mimi.

>>151383517
>>151383540
The primary antagonists were the KKK for more than half portion of the show. To make her the primary antagonist means she had to establish herself way before episode 10, and not just that retarded Mimi shouting that Papika did. Because of that, she's nothing but a side character right before the sudden reveal.

I think just Salt falling off his fucking motorcycle then acting cool in front of Sayuri fucked up the flow of the episode. Not only was it poorly animated, but it was just downright awkward and unnecessary. If they just showed them zooming off into the distance with Bu and Nyu following behind, the episode wouldn't have felt half as awkward.
>>
>>151383867
The plot is handled very poorly, let alone how full of cliches it is. I always shrug it off because it's just anime and at least the animation is good, but not anymore because it's been quite insulting for the last two episodes.
>>
Flip Flappers is a shining example of the crass commercialization of television prohibiting the individuality of animators and artistic expression. The mechanical forcefed narrative and decided focus on character drama specifically has opened up the show's flaws more than ever. The characters are blank slates with little to no expressions or personality beyond being watered-down archtypes from the Precure franchise. The fantastical setting let the show shine through the effects/action animation while covering up the lacking character acting but that's been gone now since episode 10. The flow of events is so amateur, there is no impact or emotional weight behind anything that is happening right now but the creators aren't even aware of this. They actually believe they are exploring meaningful coming of age themes with these skeletal characters while in reality this is just a trite and generic sci-fi story supported by commonly held beliefs. This is possibly the biggest disappointment of the year and an eternal mark of scorn on Oshiyama's career. He should have just worked as an episode director for Yuasa rather than have the audacity to create a television show with no sense of structure or narrative competency.

I don't have a problem being called stupid as all I think of how this show can be made better. I was just wondering if it's just my stupidity or the confession scene should have been made more accessible because among the people I know of and legit criticism here, most didn't get the emotional punch of the scene. Also, I'm not talking about previous plot points needing spoonfeeding if you read carefully.

For me it's just personal distaste in the direction it's going. I was really hoping the KKK would be the final boss. Instead it's Mimi, and they even pussied out from giving her some real character. She's locked up all her life, her lover refuses to run away with her, and then later some old fuck is about to take her baby away. She has every reason to get mad at the world and destroy the research facility along with taking her daughter to PI. But what happens instead? She "switches" with EvilMimi, and now the real Mimi is asking Salt and Cocona to stop her. It's weak writing.

I am going to have to disagree with you. KKK would have been "weak writing". It would have been the stereotypical fight the evil organization end.

With Mimi we get a much more personal end. The switch between good/evil just represents the duality of her personality. Its the drive to protect your child and to let your child go free to live their life. I thought the ending and the choice of final antagonist worked perfectly for the story.

In the end its about Cocona becoming independent and moving forward with her life and Mimi works better then the KKK

I actually like Oshiyama's rapid cuts though. It does feel 'mechanical', but it reminds me of those post-romantic dramas (some films were influenced too) where they refused to totally make the spectator identify with the actors. The problem is it's actually not consistent enough. In episode 7 you got that, but episode 6 before was a cheap tearjerker drama acting.
>>151384505
Why should I compare it with other anime this season? What else? Hibike is a hilarious youth drama with terrible animation choice (albeit consistent). Also, it's not whether it's clever or deep. It's just like being polished. Like, lol, they fucked and Mimi had a child, Salt anguishing and slammed the glass, the typical not-so-good-sound-quality played in. It's actually got some nice cuts, but ultimately got undermined by me laughing it off in sheer disbelief of how bad it was.

I wouldn't have a problem with it if the KKK wasn't defeated so easily. They were built up as a powerhouse capable of producing genetically modified warriors and technology that makes Salt and crew's look like a joke. An actual fight would have been appropriate.

As for Mimi herself, the switch thing should have never been included. Both Salt and Cocona have visions of Mimi telling them to stop her from being evil, so it feels like a cheap way of having an evil villain without making Mimi look like she's at fault. Like I said, her entire backstory is a perfect setup for her to become truly over protective. It would make talking sense into her a lot more satisfying knowing she was redeemed instead of having her good side come back.

I guess it depends on what your expectations are for the story. I always saw it as the story of Cocona so I only cared about the KKK insofar as they were able to help tell that story. When they were thrown away for Mimi it seemed very appropriate to me.

This post explains it perfectly: >>151383091


Aside from that, we have been getting a lot of shitposters the past couple weeks because the show got a tone shift when the plot arrived at the end of episode 9.

Episode 12 also had some rough cuts and animation in certain scenes, despite still being pretty good overall, you can tell that they are working hard overtime and struggling to meet the deadlines.

Still its causing some panic and concern, which is perfectly warranted, but the shitposters are jumping in every chance they get to take advantage of this weakness to try and trash the show.

We had a poll to check and see how many people actually hated the show to see if the majority really hated it and thought it was shit, or if it was just a minority of shit-posters being very, very vocal. The results speak for themselves: http://www.strawpoll.me/11945170/r

I can only appreciate this show's current arc in the abstract. Yes there are ambitious elements tying Mimi with themes of creativity and freedom and Cocona's development that were introduced before but the events and flow of the story is just laughably bad. From the Salt/Sayuri scenes to the KKK/Toto/Yuyu development to Cocona's "I love love love you" having no impact at all to Papika's mindrape lasting within the span of 1 minute and tossed aside to all the flashback being just downright boring and unconvincingly tied to Cocona's personal development or Papika's characterization. Perhaps the weakest link bringing down the whole story is Papika herself, I just see no reason to care about her. One scene she'll be crying and breaking down, the next she'll be perfectly fine after a speech from someone close to her. Also remember how people were complaining about Cocona's "I want to protect it with my own hands" from episode 8? The entire arc's script is like that now.

Which is why the systems of government in the most powerful nations in the world use polls as a key element to deciding the people in power?

Which is why the majority of high level academic research starts with a poll of some sort and then uses analytics alongside the results of said poll?

Its a method of tracking statistics. The shitposters are going to shitpost with or without the poll "look at these desperate people" lines. The poll is a beacon of light and relief for us. It is certain proof that the haters are in low numbers, and that those who actually enjoy the show are the vast majority.

I can understand your frustration. You don't want the trolls to be fed. Me neither. But when people come in asking for explanation on whats been going on, its good to bring up the poll so they can see some facts and figures to back up what is being said.

Hopefully this doesn't trigger you, but I plan on doing a new poll after the final episode airs, explicitly asking what people thought of the finale.

Oshiyama can't write story for shit. Should have just adapt an award-winning novel or manga or some shit so he'll finally learn something from those works. But then again, the pacing would be all over the place too, because he can't do anything coherent in more than one episode.

Papika is asexual. Yayaka too. Mimi regretted fucking Salt except for having Cocona. I think Cocona is the only sexual one out of the main characters as she's bi.

It got exposed harder than Guardiola's team and slipped farther than Steven Gerrard. It tries to be clever and doing plot foreshadowing beneath all the fluffy adventures in the early ones, but did so too little and wasted their storyboarding over unsubstantial key frames. As a result, when the "wham reveal" episode aired people could predict it in terms of how cliched it is, and were actually disappointed that it lacks or even betrays the build-ups from the early ones, when in fact that's the plot from the very start. People got fooled into thinking that the staff could possibly came out with something more, just because of fancy animations, cinematography, and stuffs (legit good, by the way), despite all evidences pointing out otherwise: It's only telling a generic sci-fi fantasy (albeit being very wasteful).
>>151388903
Everyone could already tell Haifuri went to shit after episode 4 or something, especially when the stupid hamster appeared. Only a handful of people here actually realized the glaring flaws of FliFla, but most people refused to admit it. Even those supposedly "experts" of anime like ANN and sakugabooru/blogs. It was even cringey when people thought there were sexual metaphors and shit like that, "implicit storytelling", and so on.

Even the animation had basic continuity errors and totally wrong approach in itself, but for some reason they overlooked that. What a hack, those bloggers are.

I think watching this show as a yuri romance is a mistake.

I wish it was, but I don't think it is. At this stage, it might be easier to enjoy if you acknowledge it's not.
>>
>>151391199
I haven't followed a seasonal anime in years, picked up this show on a whim and it has consumed my every waking moment ever since. I really wish it didn't have to end so soon, I hate this feeling. Not sure if I'll even pick up another show after this ends. Maybe LWA will help fill the void, but I doubt I'll attempt to participate in the threads for it.

I'm really gonna miss the time I've spent discussing the show with all of you, for better or for worse.

>>151391604
I think the show did a good enough job with that already.
>>
>>151387728
Yeah, I didn't really like her character either, but this scene made me like her more. Shame that she took the spotlight in what should have been Papika/Cocona's time to shine but eh, at least someone got development out of ep12.
>>
Two years ago, mahou shoujo saved Christmas. Now we are paying the price and mahou shoujo ruined it and won't stop until New Year's is fucked up too. Flip Flappers was supposed to bring balance to the yuri not destroy it, confirming a het relationship and family/brozoning the canon girl. Mimi was a mistake.

Is it wrong to want the main ship to come to fruition? I had enough fun with mental gymnastics before ep 9. I just want to feel something, no more plot forensics. You might as well be speaking truth because if I keep thinking like this I won't be able to enjoy it as is.

I honestly thought episode 12 was fine, not the best but certainly not a flop

>>151392235
What do you want to see anon?

Because as someone who was hyped as fuck and let down by that anti climatic finish of 12 I no longer expect anything. A kiss would be cute (in the low chance it will happen) but the moment was already ruined for me

(I should clarify I wasn't looking for a /u/ scene or anything from episode 12, and that daidaidaisuki would've been enough if that episode centered around Cocona and Papika's feelings).

I thought you were still suggesting not to apply "feel don't think" but you're just as disillusioned as me. I feel like desperately grasping at straws to make my feelings for this ep right.
I do expect more yuri romance in the next ep as it reveals the start of said romance (jailbreak) but somehow I can't even expect this much like what you said.

Seriously? can't even imagine that, Salt has been a crappy father, Mimi barely existed till plot needed to advance. I'd puke if they give her a line of "Father, mother, I'll miss you" or some shit like that in the final.
>>
>insane, laborious work culture

Is the anime industry this fucked?

>>151393144
Well Sayuri, for all the lack of scenes she's been in with Cocona, has easily shown the best mother-like attitude towards her, +1 if she also adopts the cat.

I skipped this show, but after reading this thread it's picked the fuck up. Just to shit on people.

Gonna wait till the final episode is out to marathon it, though.
>>
>>151393187
It's an honest question: what's the problem with time management in that industry? Do animators get stuck all the time like software engineers?
>>
Holy shit this thread is cancer.

Haven't been on /a/ since episode 6 or so but I'm generally disappointed with the last few episodes. If the ending is decent it certainly won't be a bad show in my mind but at this point I doubt it will end up living to the potential that it showed for the first half or so.

How can Sayuri open a boarding house for wayward lesbians? She doesn't even have a job now, and its not like she can put working for Flip Flap, unlocking the mysteries of a unappeasable parallel world, on her resume.

Most anons in this thread would agree with you.

>>151393404
They barely give them enough time to do anything. Even an amazing animator that could draw lots of drawings every hour ends up working extra, either covering for fellow animators or having extra cuts/fixings they need to deal with. These people sleep on their fucking chairs constantly.

Not enough money to get enough people to do the work as quickly as needed.
>>
>>151393653
I don't agree with that newfag. All is great, ep 12 is below expectation but still good.

>time management
If their has the objective to avoid production disaster vwhy don't they predict the workload and distribute it properly or the producers just secretly hope they can get away with less than enough staff?

Anime is made by people who can barely afford to live off their wages and they're expected to make this shit as it airs. They have to work far beyond what you can reasonably expect from a person and you're surprised that these things happen all the time?

>salvage and sell KKK tech until she gets a steady job

Problem solved
>>
>>151394060
The appeal of japanese animation is its low production cost and high productivity
Production costs are low because labour is devalued to the extreme
Productivity is high because low-value labour puts in effort well beyond their market value to produce work of a higher quality than they were payed for, more quickly than could be reasonably be expected.

The industry subsists on the passion and love-labour of its workers, because those are what make it feasibly economically when compared to its alternatives. The fact that we get anything worth watching not once but several times every season is nothing short of a miracle, a miracle orchestrated through the blood, sweat, tears and passion of those involved.
>>
>>151394060
Watch behind the scenes, really
These people work their ass off barely having any time for errors, and every project has its problems. Sometimes minor, sometimes huge. A slight fuck up could mark a significant fuckup down the road. Don't forget it's a group project
>>
>>151394196
Do I look surprised? I'm asking to pinpoint the root cause in this time management problem. Is it production assistants being incompetent at project management? Or the management being generally deluding themselves by believing animators can deliver more than what they are paid for? Or the management just don't care about production disaster?
>>
>>151394428
>the management being generally deluding themselves by believing animators can deliver more than what they are paid for
It's this one. Japanese work culture is fucking shit.
>>
>>151394428
It's more a problem of the sponsors, producers and other faceless higher-ups asking the impossible, and the studio being resigned to the fact that they either deliver on the impossible or don't get paid.

The precarious position of low-value labour is such that you are only worthwhile if you're pushed to the absolute limit of time/cost/quantity/quality efficiency. This often means that the difference between successfully meeting deadlines or not is a question of minutes, because nobody is willing to pay you for more than minutes.
>>
>>151394506
That's about what I've guessed. The management hope they can get away with this and when shit happens they just sweep it under the rug. Not apathetic for them, just trying to identify the source of the project management issue at a technical level.
