First, Ishihara doesn't need redeeming. Second, Ishidate fits this show very well because it's fantasy and action. Third, Takemoto is shit lately, and action has never been his specialty. TSR was more than a decade ago, and he's done nothing but SoL and comedy since, and he's been really lackluster at it the last few years.

The job of an episode director is very different from the job of a series director. And I disagree that Ishidate's episodes are always good.
>>
>>158491358
His episodes being good doesn't negate his shitty direction as a series director. If you know what a series director did you wouldn't be posting like a retard.
>>
>>158491358
>Ishidate's episodes are always good.
Kigami's, Yamada's and Takemoto's are always better. Yet Kigami sucks as a full director just like Ishidate (Munto) while Takemoto and Yamada do good at both.

KyoAni only has 3 good directors. I'd take Ishihara directing this over fucking Ishidate, even though I don't like most of his shows.

Ishihara is one of the best in business. He's only overshadowed by Yamada because they both work in a small output studio and she's the current goddess of animation in Nipland.

Holy understatement Batman. Kyoukai no Kanata is probably one of the 3 worst Kyoto Animation series.
And the people that blame Jukki Handa for it are retarded beyond belief. Do you faggots know he was chief writer for Steins;Gate and Hibike Euphonium? Strange how when he's paired with a good director he doesn't fuck shit up.

No.
>>
>>158493242
Takemoto's anime didn't even flop. Both Amagi and Maid Dragon sold well. They weren't hits, but they sold well. Come to think of it, Takemoto is the only KyoAni director with not a single flop under his belt. Yamada has Tamako Market series, and Ishihara has Phantom World.
>>
>flop meme
How do you determine what is a flop and what isn't?
>>
>>158493355
Flop is usually well under 2000 discs sold per volume, with little merchandise demand and such. Something that's guaranteed to never recoup its costs.

Kyoani sometimes makes flops intentionally. Tamako Love Story was a guaranteed flop after Tamako Market, but they still did it. Maybe they did it for fun, I don't know.
Just because it got a movie doesn't mean it wasn't a flop, they just wanted another flop so they still did it.

Starting from the first story in the second part, the narrative flops over and features very little of the letterwriting element. The stories begin to be less about words and more of action. New characters that don’t feel related to the overall setting of the book are introduced as “regular characters” and you don’t see them interact much anyway. I can’t be bothered to talk about them because they aren’t important at all.

By this point, I also got sick from the writing. It suffers from purple prose, a disease that could have been whetted out by proper editing. Like Sakuraba in Lollipop, Akatsuki likes to go overboard with the writing. Her plots are so barren they resemble movie pitches, which sometimes help pack a punch. However, she likes to load the stories with more words they don’t need and the pacing feels padded out. This problem begins in the fourth short in the first volume and will resurface throughout the second volume in descriptions and even dialogs like an eyesore.

You don’t even see these plans being actualized, so they don’t matter at all. None of these details ever appear again in the story. They do a poor job at fleshing out the world because ironically, her settings also feel unfinished despite all that too. The kingdom Violet and Gilbert serve in has zero descriptions, even though you know the politics and some of the technological level. There are wars and other countries, but they are not explained. It’s just tedious.

>Not even while being a machine girl can she be left with wet clothes. As a change of clothes was necessary, she lay a bathrobe around her supposedly perfect body and headed for the bathroom. It had been a while since anyone other than Oscar regularly used it, so in a lapse of memory, he entered it without knocking and ended up seeing her while she was had not changed yet.

>“Ah, I’m sor… ry… eh?”

>He swallowed his breath due to perplexity.

>“EEEH?!”

>What was reflected in Oscar’s eyes was a sight more bewitchingly beautiful than any naked woman. Dripping golden hair. Beautiful blue orbs of a dimension that would not soften even within a painting. The finely-shaped lips just below them. A flesh body with a slender neck, an outstanding collarbone, plump breasts, and feminine curves.

>Her artificial arms consisted of metal rings from the shoulders to the fingertips. But it was only them. Despite the many scratches, other than the arms, the rest was surprisingly real skin. With that delicate body, she did not seem at all like a mechanical doll, but a relatively normal human being.

>With everything he had believed in until then being mantled over by the shocking revelation, Oscar tried to confirm what he was seeing many times.

>“Master.” Violet called with a voice that seemed to be judging him as he continued to ogle in astonishment.

>“UAAAAAAH! UAAAAAH! UAAAAAHAAAAAH!”

>Part of the outcome of that incident was Oscar’s screaming. The other was him half-crying while going beet-red, after having yelled on top of his lungs, frantically inquiring, “Are you human, after all?!”

>Wrapping a towel around herself, Violet plainly commented, “Master is, truly, a troublesome person.” Her cheeks were rose-dusted as she muttered, her face a little lowered.

You're new, Anonymous. I can tell from you pixels.

K-ON, Lucky Star, and Haruhi are all better than their source material. And that's just from the previous decade. The first season of Hibike was much better than its source as well, and most people agree Maidragon was improved as well.
>>
>>158498089
They also improved chu2byo, ABP and I haven't read Hyouka but if that's not an improvement that LN has to be the greatest thing ever.
Can't say they improved nichijou, it looks the same but it's still the best animated show out there.

First season of Hibikek was pure yurifest with retarded yuribait scenes on at least 40% of the season, deleting important scenes from the source, the second season is 70%-80% closer to the Novels but is still better than s1.

Chuu2 is a massive flop that is nothing but dogshit and everyone, even the elevens agree on that, Amagi was fine just because the author was the one who introduced the changes, Hyouka was pure overated trash that floped hard as fuck because people noticed how mediocre it is, same as tamakek market or Phantom flop.

Since 2006 Kyoani is nothing but a meme studio that makes mediocre adaptations filled with pandering trash for the usual fujoshit/yuritard Kyoanidrone.

KyoAni has a bad habit of evening out the material and trying to avoid abything too conflicting. I call it the everyone is actually nice syndrome. Compare this to Ikuhara, who's not afraid of portraying truly fucked up characters, or Anno. In KyoAni anime all drama is a misunderstanding. There are no real antagonists.
>>
>>158487667
Ishidate is currently best KyoAni director, followed by Fujino (who is yet to get own show though)

He is Kino fag that wanted to work on real movies, but had to find job in anime studio instead.

While Kyoukai no Kanata suffered from KyoAni toning down the story, as far direction goes for the show and movie its great: Ishidate easily outshines most other KyoAni directors in emotional and cinematographic aspects.

His episodes in Hibike, Phantom World etc. are also the best directed ones.

Are you only pretending to be retarded?
Let's assume that's true regardless, for the sake of the argument. A good unit/episode director =/= a good director. A unit director has very little creative input. He's just implementing what's been delegated to him. He has no final say.

Well, children ARE the lowest common denominator. It has to be extremely simple and easy to read, as well as things such as animal characters to keep their interest. This doesn't stop it from being a really good work on its own.
Kino no Tabi is a LN so easy that its often recommended for Japanese learner's first native work, but that doesn't mean it isn't amazing.

If you say so.
I just said it's stupid.

What has pandering got to do with the lowest common denominator? Pandering is another aspect.

The original point was the LN's are inferior to novels because they lower their work to the most common denominator, and that the above post about walking on a naked girl was proof of that. I was pointing out that if the common denominator meant what you said, then the very basis of the argument was flawed.

Anyway, I see where you are coming from, that making it more accessible somehow cheapens the message or gets rid of complicated, thoughtful issues, right? At least that's what I'm getting. My claim was that the more people that understand your message and story, the better writer you are. A simple story about making friends that everyone and their mother can read and enjoy is much better written than some military series highlighting the issues of certain political values that not many people will empathize with.

That's why the aforementioned Kino no Tabi is much more popular and loved than the majority of novels. It lightly brings you onto certain topics using highly empathizable characters and lets you think for yourself, while delving into very niche topics that people aren't going to put much emotional involvement in is just going to bore readers and your story won't get across, which is, in my opinion, shitty writing.

tl;dr making people empathize is much harder than saying war is bad or censorship leads to dangerous ignorance.
>>
>>158527086
No, it wasn't.
It's one of the most interesting anime of the decade.
>>158527129
No.
At the beginning I simply said called the scene stupid. Then someone said LN and novels are the same and I said he was wrong.

But even then, so you're saying that walking on a naked girl is not a form of lowest common denominator?
>how do we make it successful?
>let's insert a naked girl

>A simple story about making friends that everyone and their mother can read and enjoy is much better written than some military series highlighting the issues of certain political values that not many people will empathize with.
Your choice of words is poor. You could say that it transmits its message better, definitely not that it's writen better, that's just laughable. Only a retard would say that 50 shades of grey is written better than Dante's Commedia just because it's more accessible.

>That's why the aforementioned Kino no Tabi is much more popular and loved than the majority of novels
Again, poor choice of words. Just because the number of fans is higher it doesn't mean it's more popular or loved. This isn't even the case because I assure you you will find more fans of Tolstoy then Kino no Tabi in the world. Thank god.

>It lightly brings you onto certain topics using highly empathizable characters and lets you think for yourself, while delving into very niche topics that people aren't going to put much emotional involvement in is just going to bore readers and your story won't get across, which is, in my opinion, shitty writing.
Well, it just so happens that Tolstoy is the master of doing this. And he manages to do it while not turning to the lowest common denominator and not using a simplified language. Or scenes where a guy walks in on a naked girl.

>tl;dr making people empathize is much harder than saying war is bad or censorship leads to dangerous ignorance.

I was saying that because it transmits its message better that its better written. I believe that simpler writing in general can transmit messages much better. I agree with what you said how everything isn't exactly black and white, but I was talking extremes. In a sense, I was claiming LNs have just as much potential as novels because it can transit its messages just as well as novels.

To refine my argument, I'm saying accessibility doesn't equate to how well your message comes across and doesn't indicate the quality of writing. Like I mentioned before, simplicity while still conveying a message is much better writing than complicated word use and conveying a message. Conveying that message while bringing more people into understanding than the complicated novel with the same message inherently means its better.
For example, A Perfect Day for Bananafish and Lolita both share a theme of alienation, but Lolita has much more going on it with several different themes. You'd probably argue that Lolita is better written because it has more thematic content, while I'd argue that A Perfect Day gets to its message much faster and leaves a more profound impact than the same theme in Lolita.

I think you mistake abstruseness for complexity. Abstruseness is complexity for the sake of it.

Simplicity can be good but if the only reason for it is accessibility then I'd say it's not good. Rewarding things in life always require effort. When you're a kid reading is still a complex thing for you, you learn while doing it. That's how it works with everything in life.

If you're ignorant you won't magically become less ignorant if you expect to not have to put effort into the things you do. Reading is one of those things. I'm sorry but I will never condone such behaviour.

One is a short story, the other is a novel. Haven't read Lolita so I can't speak about it.

>Simplicity can be good but if the only reason for it is accessibility then I'd say it's not good. Rewarding things in life always require effort.
True, the more you work for something the more likely you are to stand by it highly value it. The level of abstraction one prefers is most likely up to one's taste though. It seems its there where I differ from your opinion in which I much prefer being hand-held to a certain message or theme from another's point of view. Essentially, I value the experience rather than the puzzle.
If you think about it, it really boils down to your preferred style of learning, doesn't it?
>>
>>158529342
I'm just trying to say that you can't blame a book (or any kind of artistic work, anime too) for being "too difficult", unless it's abstruse, you have to blame yourself for being ignorant.

You prefer that? Fine, but don't say LN are better than novels because they're simpler. If everyone thought like that we'd still be living in caves, gathering fruits from trees.

I'm not hacking complicated books. I do think there needs to be a middle ground that media needs to take where people who don't necessarily think about stuff too much can understand too. 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 are good examples, in my opinion. I don't think LNs are better than novels, but they definitely can be just as good as novels, and that you shouldn't knock on something just because its a LN though the majority of LNs ARE pandering trash written by people trying to make a quick buck
>>
>>158529342
>>158529537
Why even compare to begin with? A work, novel or LN, is good the moment you enjoy reading it, a LN does not need to have to be Kafka-or-whatever-tier to be good , they write far better than 100% of Ln authors but if far more enjoyed some LN than Tolstoi works.
Still I agree even LN need to have certain standards, a great majority are written like a 12y/o would, but many still have a really decent level of writting. And if you enjoy what you read I see no reason to consider them inferior. Not to mention many novels are crappier than LNs.

Unless you mean to say "can't" it is exacly what I was saying, even if a LN or even a novel does not have a godlike writing does not mean you can't find it enjoyable. Well, as I already mentioned, it still has to meet some standard, utter garbage is still utter garbage.
And to come back to the comparison beteween novel/LNs, in terms of nowdays publications there is the same amount of garbage novels than there is of LNs.
