Nobody expected anything better from Kyoani

Nobody expected anything good from Ishihara. People only care about Yamada and Takemoto.

>>157362583
What is this?

>>157362587
Isn't he the Nichijou and Haruhi director?

>>157362563
His last good show was almost 15 years ago.
He barely did anything in Space Dandy.

>>157362333
little shill academia

>>157363055
Nice meme.

>>157362634
Platinum end
manga from death note/bakuman duo

>>157363176
Looks more interesting than Bakuman.

>>157362694
In title only, didn't have any real artistic influence on the shows

>>157362957
Not a failure, retard.
Stick to Aldenoah.

>>157362957
>>157364523
Okada trainwreck gundam sold more, that's funny.

>>157362333
Why is ZnT's OST so fucking good, goddamn

>>157362583
Did this ever got better? I remember it being edgy af.

>>157364999
Its pretty criminal how that ost was wasted on such unwatchable anime.

>>157362563
I mean it started off good but it just ended so Damn anti climactic. But you need to admit the music and art was not bad.

Still such a let down from the genius who brought us the masterpiece that is Cowboy Bebop.

>>157362333
Kiznaiver was made by Okada, so everybody knew what to expect.

>>157362333
Kiznaiver and Phantom World were too smart for /a/.

>>157367465
all i remember about kiznaiver are it's plot holes

>>157367341
>it started off good
It started with the retarded "terrorists that miracolously never hurt anyone" premise and only got worse.
The airport chess scene is still one the most imbarassing things ever put on film.

>>157368199
Exactly it was blatant shit from the start but somewhere deep down i just kind of assumed we would get the perfect explanation for everything, boy was i wrong.

>>157367465
I bet you're a Sonozaki fan.

This thread is b8 as fuck but I have to agree and toss in my own contribution.

I've just given up expecting consistent quality from anime, manga, and games.

>>157367842
Such as?

>>157368807
Why would you expect consistent quality from any medium in the first place?

I Cant believe I watched Thank you my terror in its entirety.

>>157369332
I don't mean the medium itself, I mean the creators in the medium. Anime, manga, and games have no consistently strong creators. lrn2read.

why is characters standing against a blue sky so popular?

Ah, the intelligence of the average /a/non. Supreme post.

>>157362333
Phantom World was nowhere near as bad as the other two.

>>157369434
I dropped it after episode 1. Seeing the way it's talked about, I'm glad I did.

>>157369570
It's much worse than both.

>>157369482
>lrn2read
What? You only listed mediums and wrote you didn't expect consistent quality from them. You didn't say anything about creators specifically in your first post.

>>157362333
At least phantom world has some fun moments
Enigma is still kyoanis best design to date

>>157364999
Yoko Kanno

>>157369742
Oh yes, the one that doesn't take itself serious is much worse than the embarassing "drama" that Kiznaiver and Thank you please no more five are.

>>157369742
This

Phantom World wasn't even really bad per se.
It was utterly mediocre and quite forgettable, but for people who like this kind of stuff it was probably more enjoyable.
The other two are atrocities against the Lord, however.

>>157367341
You have to admit, it's a beautifully directed shitty story.

>>157370533
At least Kiznaiver had a decent OST, looked quite good and was sort of qt due to autist love but ZnT is just a mess.

>>157369898
Ironic badness is still bad.

>>157369570
>>157369800
This to be honest
Kiz has some good directing (and only that), but ZnT was hopeless from the start.

>>157368807
Yuri Kuma was great, kill yourself for even posting it in this thread.

>>157369788
Not him but look at the topic of the thread.
It's pretty obvious what he was referring to.

>>157363210
it really isn't.

Macross Frontier
Gargantia
Aldenoah Zero

Mekakucity Actors

>>157371463
I'm pretty sure none of those were commercial failures

>>157371479
This, however, was a goddamn mistake. Like holy shit Shaft, you had EVERYTHING to make that work and you put out that garbage

>>157371463
One of these is 10x worse than the others.

>>157371479
Yes, this was legitimate garbage. Shame on shaft

>>157371506
>>157371520
I'm retarded, I obviously meant Macross Delta.

>>157369482
>Anime, manga, and games have no consistently strong creators.
I can't agree with this. When was the last time Takahata made a bad anime? Or Matsumoto Taiyou made a bad manga?

>>157371559
At least this was fun to watch with /a/

Pom Poko.

>>157371680
That wasn't a commercial failure either. Despite it not being anywhere near Frontier's sales, it was the highest seller in it's season and the Walkure group still sells out concerts today. The show is definitely a shit though, yes.

>>157371920
Pom Poko is fun, did raccoon balls put you off or what?

>>157372029
Textbook idiotic overhyped pandering Aniplex trainwreck of the season.
A deserved flop.

>>157372276
What the fuck does trainwreck even mean anymore? Re:Creators is mostly just dull.

>>157372155
The designs certainly weren't pleasant to look at, but I was more bothered by the excessive voiceover narration, preachiest enviromentalism in a Ghibli film and inconsistency of character and internal logic.

Not that it matters since the attempt at franchise is basically dead in the water.

>>157372684
I need to know who greenlighted S2

>>157372684
>surpass Gundam they said

>>157370657
Sonozaki is the cutest.
>>157371479
Haven't seen it yet. All I know about it is the standard synopsis and the OP song. Should I avoid?
>>157372684
I was told Aldnoah was the most "decent" of the Geass clones. Is it true? Are all the others even worse?

ZnT was fucking great, though
>dat ferris wheel scene

>>157373128
>one scene redeems a show
And no, before you say "but the motorcycle!", two scenes don't redeem it either.

>>157363210
It's not. It's really really bad.

GitS Arise

>>157372737
Wasn't it split cour, meaning it was planned from the start?

>>157372276
>Trainwreck
God I wish it was a trainwreck. It wouldn't be boring as fuck then.

>>157373108

A.Z was kind of fun to watch with /a/, and it's not terrible, but it also leaves a lot to be desired. Probably a 6/10 overall. OST was bretty gud and if you enjoy watching cute boys suffer, Slaine is your man.

>>157362583
>it's still one of the best-selling manga in the magazine
Fuck all those Obata-can-do-no-wrong cucks

>>157362333
Okada has an uncanny ability to make absolutely infuriating shows.

>>157362333
Valvrave, Active Raid, Skull Man, Fate Zero, SEL, and Infinite Ryvius.

>>157376896
The Gundam fandom is in a civil war at this point over Iron Menstruation. They even gave the franchise its own fandom rivalry page on TVTropes.

>>157377031
>TVTropes
Fuck off.

>>157377031
The new term is felcher gundam.

>>157362333
Kiznaiver really would have done better with more time and more plot.

>>157376667
>and it's not terrible
Yes it is
Seriously, try watching the first few episodes again

>>157379871

It's painfully mediocre but it's not terrible. The ideas were there, and so were the characters and the designs. They just weren't used properly by the story.

>>157362583
But Death Note and Bakuman were also bad

Nope, S2 is also selling less than half of S1. Also shittier ratings.

>Aldenoah Zero
Aoki was never a good director

>>157380006

Here's how you know something is bad. A poster utterly fails in defending it and just resort to memes.

>>157372684
>made by a new studio with help from A-1
>directed by Aoki
What the fuck were you xpecting?

Chaos Dragon
It has the creator of FSN, F/0, Baccano, and 2 other guy and it was such piece of shit.

>>157373278
What about 3 scenes?

>>157372684
It started out so good
Then somewhere in the second season they got high on their own supply

>>157362531
Their writers are just hacks, they need decent source material, e.g. Euphonium, to put out a decent show.

>>157380696
>It started out so good
No it didn't. There were problems even in the first episode

>>157380415
Psyhoc Pass ended up decent despite the stupid premise and shitty world building.
Gargantia is just there, one of the dullest shows ever.

>>157382062
>Psyhoc Pass ended up decent
No it didn't. It had shit animation and piss poor writing.

>>157380035
And Platinum End is a commercial success

>>157380415
>Is actually one of his better works. A shit ton better than Psycho Pass
I disagree heavily. Nothing of interest happened after the first episode except for the bellydancing.

>>157384388
>I disagree heavily.
So? Doesn't mean he's wrong. Psycho Pass was only interesting to retards who have never read a book before

>>157372737
It was planned from the start and Urobuchi wrote an outline for it. They rushed it and had no idea what to do with Inaho's characters or any Earth guys, they only finished Slaine's storyline.
