How come Furuhashi is pretty boring after the 90s?
>>158647960
george lucas syndrome i guess?
>>158647960
but from the trailers anime looks decent
my only complaint is OP and some Osts in preview doesn't fits the theme of the show
>>158647874
I kinda like how they are giving more masculinity to the characters in general. Of course Mahmut is still a fuccboi but at least now you can believe he's someone who'd lead a fucking army.
>>158649689
now i wonder anime Mahmut could pass as female...
>>158649842
They will find a way, don't worry. They already have the doujins prepared.
How does this show compare to Arslan?
>>158650064
There are several doujins about SnA but they haven't scanlated yet
>>158650134
>>158650123
lets see:
Mahmut holds Pasha title (aka Governor-General) while Arslan is nobility
SnA doesn't any magic besides gunpowder and it involves lots of politics, espionage, and battle tactics and strategies
>>158650123
>How does this show compare to Arslan?Both MCs are fuccbois and named after Turkish rulerscrossover doujin when?
That's right. Turks ARE white.
>t*rks
>>158647960
He's still solid, though, yeah I'm not expecting him to create something special as Tsuioku-hen again. I really like Shoukoku no Altair manga but the adaptation has no hope even with Furuhashi since it's coming in a year when MAPPA decided to go nuts and crash and burn. And it's two-cour, done consecutively with second half of Virgin Soul and Kakegurui. By the times September comes, MAPPA will be in flames.
>>158650123
Both are semi-"historical" series' involving politics and wars. Arslan has more adventure and camaraderie, Altair has more politics.
>>158650270
To be fair, there is a legend of a gray/white-haired prince being born in persian eran in the heroic age. Read the shahnameh you faggot. He was thrown away by his father and raised by a giant eagle, then returned to Persia as a hero king.
>>158650123
Arslan is more fairytale inspired, Altair is more gritty. Arslan has a "cleaner" feel. Altair's art looks goofy at first. Altair desu has a better story, but I think Arslan has better characters. There's also Persia versus Turkiye, and ancient versus Ottomon age.
>both have trap MC
>both have swordfighting
>both have TACTICS
They're both good.
>>158651221
Why MAPPA trying to bite more than it could chew?
Are they desperate for money or it because they have too many vacant animators on their hands?
>>158651531
>He was thrown away by his father and raised by a giant eagle, then returned to Persia as a hero king.
Heh now that you mention it Mahmut's surname Tughrul is the name of the founder of the Grand Seljuk Khanate. And his name is reference to some legendary eagle in Turkic mythology. His successor Alp Arslan, the one who ruled Persia and opened the gateway of Turkic conquest of Anatolia after Battle of Manzikert who is also considered as hero.
So yeah, Shahname more or less influenced by Seljuks but i get your point the story being mainly a Persian
Also
>Mfw pottery between those Mahmut and Arslan
D O U J I N S W H E N ?
>>158649842
Lewd.
>>158652538
>>158652851
I like how he along time become comfortable with embracing femininity...
>>158653262
he making this a trend now
>>158654158
Birb husbando best boy
Turks aren't blonde.
>>158654425
Some Turks are
>inb4 Mehmet my son
>>158654459
His dad was a Slav.
>>158654318
he really is
>>158654515
nope his dad from Karamani Turk
>>158654536
>>158654599
>>158654642
>>158654763
>>158652851
>>158653691
Why does he crossdress so much?
>>158652414
>Mahmut x Arslan doujin would be them negotiating an alliance between their kingdoms and having sex to seal the contract
DOUJIN FUCKING WHEN?
>>158651718
Trying to make it big?
>ottoman dickriding
The author should be ashamed of herself.
>>158654763
Carvajal is such a fucking angel.;_;
>>158651221
Mappa is still swimming in yoi money, and bahamut is getting paid by the game company, so all in all I'd say that financially they aren't in danger this year.

There is gonna be another manga that Ottomans involved inThis time they are baddies it seems
>>158655643He was too good for this world ;_;
>>158658182
Looking at the gook scan it seems like the typical revenge story.
>>158658536
And from the looks of it, Suleiman is bishonen Sultanagain
I like the manga art but the adaptation seems bland. Expected much more from this director.
>>158655412
Why? The Ottomans were great, the west fucked up when they let Arabs take control of the ME again.
>>158658977
seems he added bunch of new stuff to the story
i'd say lets wait see how will turn out
>>158655223
yeah but it could backfire really hard as they are taking serious risks
>>158656432
Mappa ain't that rich off of Yuri on Ice if they are not even in the production committee for it. It's the same as saying Shaft is rich off the monogatari series or even Madoka which we know isn't true. All that money is going to the production committee. The studios only get good publicity out of it, but that is about it.
>>158660442
what about BD sales though?
>>158654905
He could do anything for his country, even this >>158655003
What's up with the nips creating so many manga/anime set in the Ottoman Empire/Turkey? Don't get me wrong, I love it, because it's a farily unexplored setting in pretty much any medium, but it's starting to catch my attention lately.
>>158662504
Turkic fantasy in anime/manga (or in any medium) is pretty much untapped resource and underrepresented. It's also nice change of pace really.
>>158662504
Nippon and Turks are close buddies now.
>>158663054
this
>>158654905
Erdo is trapfag and he ordered author to draw crossdressing sheningans
>>158663054
Make sense. Just today I saw an ad about the Toyota CEO praising Turkey. Was kinda weird.
>>158663697
Jap companies are really investing in Turkey especially in recent decades
Also they are building bridges and underground tunnel and railway
>>158650134
>>158650270
>>158652414
>>158652851
Ikezaki Misa MUST make a Mahmut doujin
