Were there shows that did the "soldiers/assassins with superpowers" premise better? How has it aged?

Man I'd wish I could see more of it.
Watchin MC trying to blend in daylight, playing the dumb, naive guy, while at night raping all his enemies.
>>
>>158662450
Not really. Even this show bungled the premise after the first season because the premise always becomes power level schlock.

See also: Gangsta

>>158662450
Fate: Zero
Kiritsugu scenes are pretty good/10
>>
>>158665701
I also think that Ajin, while the original author was around, was pretty amazing in this sense.
Satou is a fucking boss.
I haven't read past the first season though.

S2 FUCKING NEVER

Season 2 never.
Man i really love the vibes of Black lagoon, gangsta, dtb

>inb4 pleb taste - its a guilty pleasure

>>158662450
I hope someone on netflix will make tv series out of it someday, disregarding second season. With never happen/ Ever/

Yin a best

>>158662450
I'll never understand how they dropped the ball with S2 so hard. The only good thing about it was the ost.

>gangsta
putting that in the same line as dtb or BL was somewhat insulting
>>
A lot of people say that season 2 didn't capture the same feel of season 1. Personally I liked season 2 a lot and wish we got to see more of it, felt like it ended abruptly but I think it's an underrated series, it was ahead of it's time in my opinion.
>>
>>158665743
Pretty sure the artist took over the moment MC and his blonde friend split up,and he wrote all the Satou stuff
>>
>>158665878
There's no need for S2 when we got the god-tier OVAs.
>>
>>158668729
S2 had interesting concepts but it really drops the ball in it's writing. Like Psycho-Pass.
>>
>>158668277
I think people give S2 way more shit than it deserve
The only real difference compared to S1 is the shift from the episodic format

>muh kuro no alcoholic was good
fuck off honestly
>>
>>158671377
Actually Hei being alcoholic and abusive was one of the better aspects of S2. It's just that everything started falling apart as soon as we learned Suou was a clone.
>>
>>158671498
Same, loved Hei on Season 2 even if I wanted more of S1 Hei
>>
>>158671333
My biggest problem was that absolutely nothing was resolved with regards to the gates themselves and Suou's existence. Hei losing his powers was pretty lame too, especially since he wasn't in peak performance like when he was fighting in Brazil. I would have loved to see prequel there over what we got in S2.
>>
>>158674231
Didn't he get his powers back at the end though when Suou died? Or am I just remembering wrong?
>>
Bump for interest. I recently watched Fate/Zero and have been looking for something similar.
I was a fool to look into the rest of the Fate franchise
>>
>>158674310
It's been forever, but yes I think he gets them back during the very last episode. I can't remember if it was Suou's death triggering it or if just entering the gate got them back.

I was under the impression that darker then black was terrible for some reason until I gave it a watch. It has aged well.

What there really should be is a prequel about the war in south america.

now that would be the tits
>>
Although most of people on /a/ nowadays haven't even watched it.
>>
>>158675691
if that aired today /a/ would lose its shit so fast. Tragedy just isn't a genre in anime any more

>>158675594
Ya this is why despite S2 being a downgrade from from S1 for me I still hold out hope for a sequel of S2 whether that be with a new S3 or OVA's. At this point there are still questions's I have that I wish were answered.
>>
>>158668277
The soundtrack for S2 was shite compared to S1
>>
>>158665253
It wasn't. The show was above average and remains above average. Anime now isn't better than anime then.

Psycho Pass dropped the ball when they went from CSI to Minority Report. Which was only a handful of episodes in.
