>Picks up old kids show because I like historical fiction and it looks like Ghibli
>better than expected

I've been crying manly tears for the better part of two hours now and apparently no one knows this goddamn show exists

How do I ever get emotionally invested in another anime again
>>
I watched Romeo no Aoi Sora last year (or was it the year before?) and I loved it. It was slow at the start but I felt close to all the characters at the end (except for the lady Romeo lived with and her son because they were both shitty).

>>157147746
WMT shows like Romeo are literally the birthplace of Ghibli that is why it looks similar and honestly there are much better WMT shows in my opinion. Miyazaki and Takahata were working on directing shows in the same series of World Masterpiece Theatre shows like Anne of Green Gables and Heidi before the founded Ghibli.
>>
I didn't like it all that much personally. Morally extremely crude.
>>
>>157147746

I've considered starting with this or Les Miserables as my first WMT. Les Miserables because I finished the novel lately, which would you suggest I watch first?

They are based around some of the best adaptable literary works available, works that survived the judgement of time and cultural change.

If I had to put an analogy, it's like a cover of a classical piece. To fuck this up you have to be particularly incompetent (and they weren't).

On the other hand, to compare those works with other anime is plain unfair if not downright ill-intended.
>>
>>157149112
>to compare those works with other anime is plain unfair if not downright ill-intended.
Why?
It's not like the people who wrote the novels were intellectually superior to the people who write original anime.
>>
>>157149112
>he doesn't know about the terrible Romeo Juliet animu
>>
>>157149112
Actually, a number of them expanded or even changed the original stories so it's not like they just adapted them 100% and left it at all.

Best example is Marco. The original is just a short story, nowhere near enough for 52 episodes.

So they had to have writers who get that literary sense and put it into the anime.
>>
>>157149152
Because you would be comparing something that survived the test of time vs something untested, amateurish or worse, a cash grab.

To use my previous example, it's like comparing an adaptation of something legendary that is going to sound good unless you are utter shit, vs no name bands, garage bands or mainstream music.

Or in other words, you are comparing stuff from a single country during a small period of time vs the unforgettable works of centuries from all over the world.

Time is usually the harshest but fairest judge there is. Very few in history, if ever, had the chance to sit down to create something they knew was going to became a classic work glorified for centuries.
>>
What I love about WMT is how they don't rely on the usual anime reaction faces to convey emotions. It's more expressive and funnier.
>>
>>157149456
Ironic considering WMT started/popularized some of the anime tropes we have to day like meidos and villainess shoujo stories.
>>
>>157149434
I had literally never heard of 95% of WMT titles before hearing about or watching them.

Those works are probably famous only in the country of origin and possibly in Japan, but I wouldn't bet on the last one.

Leaving this aside, quality is always rewarded in the long run, even if an anime is original, nothing stops it from being as good as a WMT one in theory.
>>
>>157149410
And even with such solid material, they didn't get it right all the time.

I'm not dissing their work, I'm just trying to ground the unrealistic perception of these works.
>>
>>157149641
>And even with such solid material, they didn't get it right all the time.

Absolutely true. I don't really like their adaptation of Cedie for example. Kinda missing the point of his character, I think.
>>
>>157149638
Depends of your country of origin and raising, naturally, not everyone is going to be familiar with all their adaptations. But in general, they did adapt well known works.

> Leaving this aside, quality is always rewarded in the long run, even if an anime is original, nothing stops it from being as good as a WMT one in theory.

Agree, but I would say that original works will always be regarded better than adaptations. (There are probably exceptions, though)
>>
>>157149667
Every time I watched Cedie, I can't help to think about those reincarnation light novels we're getting lately where a young kid will be born a noble and already has his harem when he's just six.

Their Peter Pan adaptation took too many liberties and at times felt... weird.

I don't like how they changed things from the original, like making that scene where Romeo saves the slave trader guy from drowning. I think even for a Victorian era novel, that's a bit too saintly. The guy ended up being jailed at the book but I don't remember him getting his comeuppance in the anime.

>I hated how Sara just forgave everyone for torturing her

In the novel, she just leaves without a second though, not returning once after the reveal. She even had her own little verbal revenge vs Minchin when she begged her to return to the school, done tastefully and elegantly. I dunno if she forgives her but she basically says "She never liked me but I never liked her either."

>>157152956
What violence man? There's barely any people in the WMT fandom these days. I don't even know where Sarafags go in 2ch since their general gets spammed and shitposted to death.

>she was just an oddball

Reminder that in the original novel she almost called Ermengarde "stupid" before stopping herself. Also there's a scene where she rages against Emily after a hard day at work.

And in the original, original short story she's slightly a little more childish and self-centered and she just says she can't understand Ermengarde who doesn't like her uncle giving books to her as she will gobble them up if they were given to them.
>>
>>157153213
Rascal is most popular in Japan just because of the mascot.
>>
>>157152223
>>157152049
I think probably Anne is better than Treasure Island and Remi maybe those two are same level as Heidi and Marco. Then Sara just below those.

With regards to the animation its like the other anon said. Dezaki is influential as a director because he developed ways to make anime look cool and visually interesting while working on an extremely limited budget. A lot of his techniques are the same kinds of things you will see in Ikuhara, Shinbo and Anno works.
>>
I just want to see a legit Secret Garden adaptation for the scene where Mary Lennox lambasted her Indian servants, calling them pigs and pretty much thought of them as subhuman.

They didn't really work on really popular stuff, though. Heidi, Anne of the Green Gables, Marco, Romeo and most of WMT are based on pretty unconsidered stuff by most audiences; and to consider the WMT's crew's skill and effort to be separate from the rest of the industry is unhelpful.

I want them to adapt The Little Lychetts. The MC is adorable and hilarious as fuck. Story starts out like Sara where her parents died and she's left penniless in a boarding school. But she and her little brother that just returned from India got adopted by her maid's family, and there she begins to learn the life of the poor folks.

She starts off really quite arrogant. And she really wants to be adored by her little brother, only for him to keep calling her "ugly", which is a sore spot for her. Not to mention the little brother ends up getting more attached to her (ex) maid over her, leading to her jealousy. One hilarious yet sad incident is when she brings him a Grimm fairy tale book for his birthday after saving her allowance for it but he ends up not caring about it as he's been gifted a piano instead by the maid's family.

The visibility of those works depends a lot of your country, period and exposition to the local literature. There is no denying that they had to do their research but these are not obscure works under any point of view.

With that said, I think you misunderstood (understandably seeing other posts) my intention with my separation of their efforts with the rest of the industry. My original goal was to attack the "deification" that some anons may have for these works and their staff. Basically, rather than attacking the rest of the industry I was trying to convey that these works have several advantages that original works lack.

In a certain way is like comparing Studio Ghibli's works with anime made for TV by an average studio. While the difference in this case is not that big (Ghibli's output is not even considered "anime" by many), a comparison remains unfair.

Hmm... I really don't think we should walk that path since it's extremely subjective what is and what isn't a work of genius. However, I think we can all agree that these works did survive the test of time.

There is also another 2 factors to keep in mind: these adaptations have to be "all public friendly" and need to be adaptable into a TV format. Both of them reduce considerably the amount of works available.

Yep, that's pretty much every WMT series. They really understand how to write characters, not just character archetypes/tropes.
>>
>>157154822
Some might have been popular in some places enduringly but I don't really think many of them are considered great literary works. I think it's pretty unfair to characterise it as something you have to do a bad job of to fuck up. Depending on the staff involved there are quite obvious fluctuations in quality throughout the run of shows. The fact that they may already be beloved to so many people gives you a whole multitude of ways to fuck up that aren't available in an original work. They're just different kinds of challenges I don't think either one is less than the other though.
>>
>>157155268
Actually, you have a point. It's disingenuous from me to underrate the effort that takes to adapt one of these works. While it may differ it's indeed not an easy task.

Hell, as far as I remember the same people that adapted the respected LoTR trilogy also adapted the repudiated Hobbit "trilogy". (Correct me if wrong)

shit any of you remember Christoper Colombus anime?
>>
>>157158635
I do.

Pretty downer ending, if I remembered correctly.

>Marco
Whoops I meant Nello.
>>
>>157158755
Anyone else here agrees that in the end Nello basically committed suicide? The book pretty much said that he despaired with everyone treating him so badly as he was a kind boy who only received kindness for the rest of his life.

It's not that far-fetched as another novel by the same author had an innocent village girl throwing herself into the river after she had been tricked by a painter who two-timed her.

A torture doesn't always have to be physical. It was especially worse for someone like Sara because she was never accustomed to that kind of lifestyle.
>>
>>157158947
Remi and Nello weren't accustomed to it either.

Best show.

I think Sara is kind of a second tier WMT myself. There were things about it that bothered me and sometimes it was quite an effort to endure the bullying and abuse. I'd probably put all the Takahata WMT ahead of it myself. I know one guy gets particularly bothered by people who think Anne is the best because it had a spurt of popularity on /a/ after the BD was subbed but I've seen a good number of them besides those.
>>
>>157159740
People have nothing up against Anne, It's a beautiful masterpiece but Annefags are literally the cancer of WMT community.
>>
>>157159740
I think Sara had an interesting direction myself. The way the scenes and the music and the characters' facial expressions blend were great. Perhaps not as good as Takahata's WMTs but definitely one of the top tiers.

I feel like they could've adapted book Sara perfectly if they wanted too, just by the few scenes where she had her death glare on. I can see why an adult would be unnerved by it.

>>157159850
Honestly, this community is too small to have actual cancerous group in it.
>>
>>157159850
People who have seen Anne and nothing else and then declare it the best are an annoyance but I can't see how anyone can have an issue with someone who has seen a good portion of them and still holds that opinion.
>>
>>157159931
It's probably like 5-10 people heavily into watching them that keep these threads alive when they pop up. Then the random people who stumble in to mention the show they watched in their childhood.
>>
>>157159950
Anne of Green Gables is my favorite anime too, but Annefags are people that falls into the former category. Any other "somethingfags" (Sara, Perrine,etc.) are also cancerous in my opinion.
>>
>>157160071
At least we still get people drawing fanarts on Pixiv. Recently there's that Flone challenge where people are told to draw her in a cute way.
>>
>>157159850
Why is coming here always like reading a Tolkien and then engaging someone about the Hobbit yaoi fandom?
>>
>>157160083
I'm not sure if it's my absolute favourite but probably top 3 when you get down to that kind of level it's hard. It's the only show I've ever bothered to do so much work to watch though I think.
>>
What's the first WMT you finished boys? Mine's Anne, I think, back then with the shitty subs.
>>
Anne is the best. Robinson 2nd,Heidi 3rd.
>>
>>157159931
>she had her death glare on
You mean her "oh please don't punish me ma'am please" look? I don't remember any other glare besides that.
>>
>watch Anne
>wants more
>ends up reading a shit ton of other Montgomery books

I feel like she's one of those rare woman writers who cater to men too, since her heroines are usually cute and hilarious. Even back then, college boys read Anne after all.

You'll always have faggots. Still classic anime threads are the most civil threads on /a/.
>>
>>157160278
You gotta watch it again then.

That's nostalgic, feels like it's 2004. Thanks!
>>
>>157160339
Old anime threads are the same popular shit over and over again though. Got bored reading the same shit over and over again.
>>
>>157160248
Tom Sawyer no Bouken with french subs and then raw.
>>
>>157160248
Same. I started watching it that shitty encode and then said fuck that and cobbled together the BD subs.
>>
>>157160382
You can always leave anon. It's not like we're forcing you to stay.
>>
>>157160396
I watched the first episode and I'm not sure if I'd want more. Thinking to pick up the novel instead.
>>
>>157160396
I really want to watch this. I wonder if the raws are still around after nyaapocalypse.
>>
>>157160453
I think it's delightful. Besides, the pig chase in the first ep is remarkably well animated, the show reveals its cards right away.

>>157160529
If it comes to that, I have the whole series.
>>
>>157160396
First animu I find with slavery taking place not in fantasy land, and actually enslaves black people instead of cute monster girls.
>>
>>157160699
>this is what actually Japanese otaku thinks about slavery
It's a sad world.
>>
>tfw seen Anne, Heidi and Dezaki's Remi already
Is it all downhill from here?
>>
Are there a list of series you'd consider WMT-likes? Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair, Laura the Prairie Girl, Anime Himitsu no Hanazono (Secret Garden), Piccolino no Bōken, Jungle Book Shōnen Mowgli, Anime Sanjuushi (The Three Musketeers), Cinderella Monogatari, Nobara no Julie, Robin Hood no Daibouken, Watashi to Watashi: Futari no Lotte, Shirayuki Hime no Densetsu, Kaze no Shoujo Emily (books from the same author as Anne)

Most of which are Sub Fucking Never status.
>>
>>157160248
The Trapp Family.

I just got back from seeing Sound of Music on stage and decided to watch it. It was fucking fantastic so I'm on a journey to watch them all.

Watched Anne, Sara, Trapp, Peter Pan. Little Women's next for me.
