Livechart says it's airing in three hours.

why does this show alternate between 3d cgi and hand drawn for some characters?
why was 2/3 of ep 0 hand drawn and suddenly half of the chars turned to cgi?

>>155870225
It's easier to make everything CG in parts where there's a lot of CG elements anyway (such as the KADO cube).

>>155870580
But if they already had the models, why bother animating them at all for episode zero? Or those brief moments in episode one?

>>155870580
I don't mind the cube or some background elements being cgi, but I'm talking of the characters. I don't know their names but the 2 MCs are clearly animated in ep 0, until they get inside the plane.
same for one of the gril at the office, she alternates between cgi and hand drawn in the same episode. it's just so weird.

>>155870752
It seems the MCs are going to spend a lot of time inside the cube or near it, so I guess it just works better when 80% of the scene is moving CG.

Should be starting in a few minutes.

I watched the 00 episode and it was fucking boring as shit, is the rest of the show like this?

>You should probably get dressed.
Damn, that's a lot of space autism.

>>155873371
No. In ep1 they get visited by an autistic alien who wants to "advance" humanity. Now they need to negotiate with him, because he doesn't understand shit about humans.

>>155873640
the alien shit has me interested, but is the overall tone/atmosphere/pacing of the later episodes the same as 00? Because that shit made me fall asleep

>>155868651
I'd negotiate with that alien, if you know what I mean (no homo).

>>155873693
Ep 1 and 2 are more tense and otherworldly (ep2), though it seems humans might end up being a bigger problem than the alien. He looks rather benign and curious so far.

So what day does this fucking air on, Because it came out on Thursday last week fine.

>>155874318
Episode 0/1 came out a day early as a one-time only thing, I'm fairly sure.

>>155873468
How did he look naked?

Was the CG good?

>>155873693
Ep 0 is just an introduction to the main characters, so that you can see what they do/their relationship before the cube appears. Ep 1 is where the story really begins.

Another amazing episode.

Government being actually competent for once is nice change of pace.

I like both Shindo and the alien. It doesn't seem like Hanamori will have a big role in the negotiations, but I can't wait to see Tsukai next episode.

Everybody seems pretty reasonable so far, though this parallel isn't exactly flattering.

zaShunina "eating" the phone with the cube also explains why sidekick-kun was swallowed, he used him as a base to generate his human shell.

Tsukai was cute as fuck, can't wait for next ep.

>>155877369
Yeah, that's what it's reminding me of. Karellen and the Overlords had a better understanding of humans than zaShunina does, though. zaShunina is also more trusting.

>>155875508
>Naked first meeting
>Straight laced government guy meeting kooky guy

So is this anime kinda what Samurai Flamenco would have been like if SF didn't drop realism the moment Guillotine Gorilla showed up? I swear to God Flamenco had kamen aliens too.

I actually liked episode 0 just as a little vignette.

>>155870225
>key animators kill
>just cgi this shit
anyway AOTS.

>>155877687
Yeah if this became a movie liked Toei planned a condensed version would probably happen at at the beginning of the movie, interspersed with the opening credits.

>>155878396
It's not like their alien understands rhetoric anyway. Talking too much would just confuse him.

>>155878396
Really is the weakest part of the show. They could have avoided it just by not banging on about how great he is, too.

I like the amount of visual cues they're dropping each episode.

Like there's no need to tell that the main girl is also an ace negociator like Shindo, just like he's got origami, she's got those little figures on her desk.

Or how zaShunina modeled his white cloak on the children's book >>155876472

>>155877842
>>155877940
Not chrome plating but you folks might like Fune wo Amu if you want a realistic workplace anime with lots of passion behind it.

(Also, the cake wins)

>>155878457
zaShunina understands only the very basics of human communication for now. When Shindo tried to talk to him normally ("You startled me"), it created a misunderstanding. You can't really use much rhetoric with someone who would talk in binary code if you let him.

>>155878716
zaShunina wasn't in episode 0 though, which is where they were trying to establish the MC's amazing powers.

>>155878546
It made sense, too. Of course he'd need to tune his vocal expression if it's new to him.

>>155878755
Shindo's skill is mainly the ability to consider multiple points of view impartially and then try to find the most beneficial solution for everyone involved. It doesn't seem that special, but people tend to be pretty bad at it.

>>155878883
Like I said, he's a fixer, not a negotiator.

>>155876472
A good move on Shindo's part. Black/red bodysuit may look menacing together with albino features. But adding white overcoat make alien look like some shinto kami.

Yugo is less of a negotiator and more of a fucking lunatic with incredible skills in overcoming being tortured in various brutal and creative ways.

>29 days to process the passengers/crew and maybe the plane itself.

I'm curious if there are going to be any other accommodations.

>>155869501
>The beautiful answer has arrived.
Autistic OTP confirmed.

>>155870225
Probably first of all to train CG animators to render characters, and because they figured blending 2D and 3D doesn't work well. I appreciate the attempt.

>>155877369
I see this too, although Kado is definitely far more advanced than anything in Clarke's stories except maybe the star children which would probably be around the same tech level

is this the 2deep4u anime of the season?

>>155880237
Nah it's not really deep. Alien from another universe comes to this planet and wants to help out

>>155878767
maybe he thought humans communicated using different pitches, after all the guy could have had opera music on his smartphone

>>155880237
I've never been so hyped for diplomatic negotiations.

>>155880180
The worldview also seems similar. Clarke's works generally feature sensible characters and positive aspirations; the main characters in Kado fit this pattern so far.

>>155880311
>humans communicated using different pitches

Yeah probably, don't think he got the whole 'words' thing until absorbing the smartphone and getting introduced to written language.

Toei has really knocked portraying him as purely and utterly alien down pat

>>155880311
Could be, though I think he gradually lowered the pitch until he reached something resembling a normal human voice.

>>155876588
But why with white hair? Wouldn't it be easier to just make a copy?

>>155877266
Which means Shindo has some yoga exercise apps on his smartphone.

>Assimilates smartphone
>Starts taking in binary code

>>155873693
Not at all, 00 is fucking boring.

>29 days eating shitty airplane food.

>everyone masturbates about what a great negotiator he is
This shit drives me nuts. Come on? Everybody around him is such a perfect little human being? No higher-up ever wants to stomp him out or shittalk him out of envy?

>>155880741
Not exactly, he was using base 2 to transfer a number over.

Which came from the smartphone's ability to process numbers in base 2.

You could figure that he could also get form the smartphone's quartz crystal how much a second is, too. Pretty neat.

>>155880861
I bet we'll see some of this pop up in later episodes.

that definitely, can't remember the last time I saw something so alien in a fictional world, everything seems to be about computability to them, they can replicate matter to the atomic matter, that body he's using could also just be a doll with his real mind residing somewtere else, his cubeship also gives a sense of magical technology with all those weird moving parts and appearance, or at least thats how it looks like to primitive humans

>>155879234
The fuck? The alien says that getting out Shindou alone takes 2 hours, there are 231 passangers on board (+~10 crew members?).
What follows:
1) Why didn't Shindou tell zaShunina to evacuate the passengers first and foremost and think about the plane later? It would take only 19-20 days.
2) How does that thing even work? zaShunina said the evacuation time depends on the mass, so how come getting the plane out would take only around 10 days if it's much heavier than all the people combined?

>>155869501
Really like how the black/red colouscheme of zaShunina base outfit matches Shindou's suit - he probably based it off exactly what he observed Shindou to be wearing at the time.

>>155880820
Think about the smell! There are no showers on airplanes.

I would watch this too. This is why Patlabor was so good - not enough anime feature the people behind the scenes who actually build, fix, and maintain things, it's always about the ace pilots, leaders, or the kids of the people who actually get the work done.

>>155880861
it's not impossible, I've worked for some big companies and there are people that are seem to be universally liked (barring the occasional upset underling who doesn't want to do their job). The typical nobody-dislikes type is a middle-aged or older person in a middle management role who's good at their job and is firm but friendly with everyone, and maintains a sense of distance and propriety that prevents any appearance of favoritism or bias.

>>155881096
The physicist woman suspected the moving "parts" of Kado could be some form of advanced ferrofluid, which was my first guess too.

But most of this is she just happily agreeing with whatever they ask her or "Tay repeat after me".

>>155882457
>Self-aware
This is literally the same alien who thought talking in base 2 was an acceptable form of communication.

But yeah if anything is corrupting Kado it probably won't be /b/

>>155880639
Two possible options: a) he chose a neutral color that would differ from all humans equally, b) his appearance reflects Shindo's, so he just inverted his hair color for contrast.

>>155868651
wassup with the change between 2d and cgi for the characters?

>>155880639
>>155882671

He also looks pretty albino, so maybe he can't be bothered to / doesn't see the point of fiddling around with his pigments to get a certain colour.

>>155882748
>>155882671
Doesn't explain why he chose to grow his hair long.

>>155882633
Communication and thought are not the same thing. Note that he tries to be as accommodating and "polite" (if you can call it that) as possible and he also quickly grasps the idea that humans might view him as a threat.

Amazon is airing anime now? Is this a simulcast thing or Japan only?

>>155882867
It airs on normal Jap TV channels.

>>155882804
Adjusting hair lengths is again a very human trait - hair naturally grows long.

Why it's not to his knees or something I have no idea. Maybe he doesn't want to deal with lugging around a mass of hair? Maybe he's somewhat basing his hair length on the lenght of those he primarily interacts with - who all wear their hair short?? Maybe Toei wants a longhaired prettyboy to appeal to fujos???

What's great about the time negotiation scene was that it showed zaShunina has progressed from knowing fuck all about human interaction to being able to somewhat read and understand facial expressions - since Shindou probably gave a visual cue that led think to think that 3 hours was acceptable.

>>155883314
There's also the little scene during the first public announcement, where Shindo mimics speech and sound waves and zaShunina patches him into the Kado amplifier. He learns fast.

although i like it DESPITE its CG. obviously 2D would be better. a fucking magical cube is not a good excuse to save on animation dollars. i don't know how the creators can ever be proud of their work here either. using a sub par method means not being the best it can be. cgi animators should stick to video games where they'll be appreciated.

I always have a gut feeling Japanese author will fuck up sci-fi somehow or another. I mean right I assume he's just a biological construct that the Kado made in Shindo-kun's image after he touched the surface to serve as a tool to carry out diplomatic negotiations with the distinctly non-cubeoid earthlings. At the same time I also assume Japan will pull out a HE'S A WIZARD FROM AN ISEKAI DIMENSION THAT NEEDS WOMEN.

>>155899790
I'm more concerned that eventually they'll portray ever other country on earth as kunckledragging cavemen who want to wage war with the cube, while everyone in Japan is completely levelheaded and rational.

After watching this latest episode, I am convinced this is a first contact anime political thriller. Which is fantastic, because its not something that's really been done in this way to my knowledge before. It also helps that the music is really really good, and sets the tone. Finally, the asynchronous chronology of events, ups the what's going to happen next, what did they discuss, what is his/her motivation for doing this, factor.

This show is definitely AOTS for me. There's nothing else quite like it nor is there anything else that's handled as well as this.

I don't think its a ferrofluid, given that an object of that scale with such a high level of complexity would become polarized to the planet's magnetic field. Especially if it was a ferrofluid.

I think its taking femtotech and using that to manipulate this: ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_foam to create a fractal structure that resembles a ship.

What can they do, though? Nothing can touch Kado, so it's not like any government can exert any real pressure on zaShunina without risking that he'd leave altogether.

That was a pretty good second episode, I loved how they showed zaShunina learning how to communicate, it's pretty unpredictable though, I mean I wonder if the whole series will be set over those 30 days or they won't spend too long on the plane.

zaShunina and Shindo probably won't spend much time on the plane either way, since they need to communicate face to face with the delegates.

I wonder if they'll wind up shifting to full 2d once they run out of the scenes from the scrapped movie.

there's several shows that season that are either full or partially CG. It's taking over the industry.

at least the nips try to make the tool what they want instead of having the tool dictate the final product's style.
