KyoAni

Animation and quality control is top tier, no creativity at all though.

Their animation is some of the best youll find on TV. I hate the studio, but even I have to give them 90/100+ on animation every time I score one of their shows. So saying that they have nothing to offer is retarded. Their writing and audio direction are absolute bin tier, though. At least for 80% of the shit they made.

Your picture also isnt accurate at all. Its the subtle details that make those characters look different. That doesnt look like Yui at all, for example.

Mirai and Rikka are cute.

Seriously, I know that you're just looking for replies, but KyoAni isn't as shit as you think it is.

They're the only studio that pays their animators a living wage.

Kyoani is a sad case because their animation is beautiful, but their artstyle, character design, settings, and stories are really boring. How do I say this... It feels like I really should enjoy anime from them, but I don't.

I don't mind the sameface if it's supported by consistent quality, feel the same way about Ghibli.

Their material is hit and miss though.

>>162083192

Euphonium has the best writing of any of their shows, purely because it's an adaptation of a work by a competent author

>>162092450
On what universe? So much fucking melodrama and MISUNDERSTANDINGS even if I liked it overall. Like the first half of Season 2 was spent focusing on characters I couldn't remotely give a shit about.

K-On, despite its fairly average source material, is the best-written thanks to its character dynamics. Sasuga Yamada.

>There's not a single good thing about this studio.

I thought the same thing, then I went and read the Haruhi novels. Boy, they were such trash; absolutely awful pieces of literary works. They were a horrendous read, didn't make sense and had endlessly repeating themes. I mean, if everyone loved the Haruhi anime, and the movie that accompanied it, why doesn't anyone discuss the novels? Then I found out first hand why. Kyoani isn't an amazing studio or even the greatest, but they are the best at adapting source material, closely followed by SHAFT.

Kyoani thus sticks to their strengths which is adaptations. Their adaptations are stellar; no forced NTR, no alternate scenarios, no sudden drama, no side character deaths etc. Kyoani is just really damn good at enhancing adaptions. I actually just got back from shitting a torrent of fury in an other thread where the anime adaptation went to shit by doing the above. If an anime is going to spend time building up its theme and characters, then the last thing you want is to have all that trust and invested interest up rooted by doing something out of left field.

I understand Japanese people in their culture love TWEESTS and sudden, dumb bullshit but that simply ruins stories, it doesn't necessarily enhance them.

2nd season when?

>>162092734
After Eupho S2 they could fuck anything up. I'm not willing to wish for it anymore.

>>162092051
Clannad was sad because of its own story. K-On was sad because there were some themes that people could relate to from real life.

The whole theme about high school being almost over, making the most of your time with your friends, and having to move on in life and say goodbye to them is something that most people could empathize with. That's what made their final concert together and their song to Azusa pretty sad.

Clannad has nothing on K-ON!. It was ruined by the ending. It was also generally overwrought and annoying whenever most of the so-called sad scenes happened. The best elements of Clannad are Tomoya living an adult life, dealing with being a parent, and dealing with his father.

This doesn't work at all. That looks nothing like Yui and that looks nothing like Chitanda.

KyoAni does good comedies. Their dramas are real shit tier though. The shows like K-on and Haruhi that to the line are watchable, but ultimately boring. They should stick to stuff like Maid Dragon, Lucky Star and Nichijou (especially since those shows aren't riddled with boring CGI backgrounds and rainbow vomit color pallettes).
I wouldn't say any of their stuff deserves the lavish praise you faggot seem to give it though.
Also, they couldn't pick a decent source material to save their lives.

>>162093491

The studio work culture is among the best in the industry; their projects don't have absurdly rushed production schedules and they cultivate their own in-house talent. They have a lot of positives going for them, more than most other studios.

>>162093855
No you're right, there was a 6th came out last year though, only translated recently. Probably years until the next one.

Are the LN's really unpopular? As in sales wise or fan reaction? How the hell did Hyōka of all things get a live action adaptation? too many questions

>>162094134
All works of literature can be parsed either fully or partially into drama or comedy. KyoAni doesn't work drama well at all, so when their shows venture into that territory, they become tedious and childish.
On the other hand, they are excellent at visual gags, which is where Nichijou and Maiddragon excelled. I don't really know why you can't understand such simple classifications. Maybe take a literature class. Most community colleges offer them at very affordable rates.

>>162094186
The anime is very popular, at least. There have been several polls in the past that demonstrated that plenty of Japanese people want another season over most other KyoAni shows.

>>162094568
It's the slower pacing that makes it great, especially from a character development perspective. It would have little effect or point really if Oreki changed his outlook in like 3 episodes or whatever.

>>162094879

>What do you mean by this?
People like to act like it's trying to be super deep or claiming it's pretentious in general when it's not.

>>162094186
I only heard about it, but it always seemed like it, the LN isn't really "anime" like other populars LN, the covers are just normal book covers and I don't think there's much marketing for it, I wouldn't be surprised if it really is unpopular.

I don't think most people even knew about it before KyoAni picked it.

>>162094281
Well, Chitanda is pretty memeable.

>>162094974
Ah I see, yeah I've seen shitheads on /a/ try and claim this before, only to go unsubstantiated as expected. Here's hoping for s2 (though it seem a longshot)

>>162094666
can't decide whether to be a pretentious fuckwad or a petulant child huh?

so you initial point was an unsubstantiated claim that they make bad dramas, and their comedies, maid dragon, lucky star, and nichijou in this case are better, with the only reason provided that they didn't have rainbow color palettes.

Solid point, I especially like how your only provided reasoning is not even true, you might check out those shows you listed again, nichijou and maid dragon both make use of washed out colors, but they the colors they use come from across the spectrum, something you can relate to, I'm sure, and lucky star is more saturated and has a somewhat more narrow palette than the previous shows, but compared to something like disappearance it's positively technicolor.

>>162095009
>I only heard about it, but it always seemed like it, the LN isn't really "anime" like other populars LN, the covers are just normal book covers and I don't think there's much marketing for it

Which I think nicely rebuts this bait thread. Hyouka, Haruhi etc shows how good KyoAni is at adapting things that would to anyone else seem unthinkable, and then doing a fine job of it on top of that.

>>162085576
how the fuck is oreki even close to being a self-insert character, just because he's not a chad doesnt make him a weeb neet loser

>>162094666
I'm not saying that they're useless all of the time, but they certainly are in this case, the only justification provided for the other dudes point was that nichijou, maid dragon, and lucky star had less vibrant color palettes than the dramas, which is not really a useful division to make, there are a few with very vibrant palettes, tamako for example, but there are also others with very subdued palettes, see dissaperance.

basically, what I was trying to say is that it's not a useful way to categorize the shows for the point they were trying to make

>>162095438
Exactly anon, how is he an otaku either? I would suspect that guy didn't even watch the show

>>162095101
>unsubstantiated claim
It's literally just my opinion. Take it or leave it.
I'm not even going to get into the color shit with you at this point, we're well into the genre argument now.. If you think the overused CGI filters and rainbow lens flares of trash like Disappearance are "subtle," then you're probably going blind. Go see an optometrist.

My point is that I enjoy KyoAni's shows when they are lighthearted and comedic, and not when they have stupid cliche melodrama.
Let me just use K-on for example. I enjoy the scenes of the girls sitting around and laughing together, making jokes, and acting cute (ie the comedic[!] ones). I think the scenes of Azusa whining like a bitch and the girls writing a song for her (ie the dramatic[!] ones) are childish, trite, and have no value whatsoever.
The shows that focus more on comedy tend to be more enjoyable in my opinion, because the shitty sources KyoAni adapts are exclusively written by otaku pandering hacks who have no idea how to carry serious drama. I'm also done talking to you, since you're clearly a delusional fanboy anyways.

>>162094568
It's such a light heart show. I think you are right on the sense that people want to see things that are never going to be there. If you don't like the mysteries or you are lazy to try to deduct them and don't like the show because of this you are probably watching it wrong.

Also fuck me if this doesn't have the best set of friend characters I have ever seen.

>>162095486
That wasn't "evidence" to my point about their comedies being better. It just so happens that I prefer the hand drawn style of those shows to the heavy use of CGI in their other works. It was more of an aside that you've focused on. Hence why it was parenthesized. Learn to read nigger.

>>162092734
hopefully fucking never

>>162095550
>just my opinion man
you made a statement with no evidence and then accused me of missing the point, how do you hit something that's not there?

can you even read? the way you made your point made the color thing and the genre thing inherently linked. also with a few exceptions, which are obviously there to accentuate what's going on, most of screen in disappearance is always blue.

>finally makes a coherent point
congrats, if you had just done this in the beginning instead of talking out of your ass about color we could have avoided most of that.

In a way, I agree with you, I think the thing that really makes kyoani show's and movies is those small character moments; it's in those moments that the characters earn the dramatic payoff, and I think kyoani does it better than most others, in their good stuff anyway.

In S2 they adapted two novels into one season, whereas S1 was one novel and original content. So it was a mess narratively and two key characters in the first arc didn't get proper characterization.
Also the drama just wasn't as good as the first season but that's on the material.

There's a reason why Maid Dragon isn't included in this chart, mainly because it's shit but also because it would destroy the comparison on monolith style. Even studios like PA have only slight variation and Uchouten is the deal breaker. That being said, I don't understand why people consider a studio having an iconic style a bad thing. I enjoy immensely the fact I can recognize a studio based on their designs, if anything I think it's a merit.

>>162106432
And yeah, also Nichijou and Lucky Star etc.

I'm awaiting the moment this thread inevitably turns into Kyoani vs Shaft for some reason.

Thankfully, that's all I'm really looking for. I leave the tryhard "3 deep 5 me" stuff for the edgy kiddos who think anyone's impressed by the fact that they watch it. Something for everyone, right?

I want to see cute girls doing cute things, with lots of fun and hijinx, and everything nicely wrapped up into a happy ending. No one delivers this crap like Kyoto Animation.

What the fuck? Out of all the possibilities you chose a mediocre series that was only good for waifus and occasional comedy tidbits.

>>162109120
The story is just an excuse to showcase largely irrelevant comedy scenarios, and features painfully obvious outcome. Reconsidering this Maid Dragon is somewhat similar and nothing I'd place on pedestal, but as far as bare bones plot goes Amagi is kind of dull.

Is plotfag a term nowadays? Is wanting the story to have something meaningful a negative thing?

>>162108222
Amagi's story was as barebones and straightforward as it gets. Why are storyfags so boring? Even Hibike S1 did its story better.

Its a jab at people who claim SoL settings have "nothing happening".
"Meaningful" in itself is highly subjective. For example, I found Tamako Market much more meaningful than stuff like NGE, TTGL, or even Aria. Not saying it DOES have more meaning, but it's messages and themes are more align with my own values and as a result, resonate with me much more.

>>162106103

But nobody is good enough for Mugi-chan.

>>162109658
What even was the 'message' of Tamako Market? Something about family maybe? Everybody loves somebody? Mochi is delicious?

I thought Tamako Market was easily above average when it comes to SoL, until they threw in that Prince arc in the last 3 episodes. I haven't seen Love Story yet, so maybe it ties into that, but if it doesn't; holy shit what a fumble of an ending.

Its about leaving your bubble, about going out of your comfort zone.

Tamako is very easily accepting of things coming in (Dera and the islanders and the glasses girl) and can easily say goodbye as they leave, but a resident of the market she grew up with leaving, or the market itself closing? She literally has a panic attack and gets frustrated when people suggest she herself may leave one day. When big changes inevitably come to her (adolescence) she shuts herself away but by the end of the series in Tamako Love Story, she becomes her own driver of change and even confesses to Mochi OUTSIDE of the market.

Of course, its not the only theme present in the series. There's also love of community and "Everybody loves somebody" and of course, coming of age themes.

>>162083938
Who cares when they made Maid Dragon.

I care because they won't make merch for Maid Dragon.

I guess I need to watch Love Story to get all of that, but I think most of it got through from the first 8-9 episodes. I feel like they added in that Prince arc for kids or retards who STILL didn't get the vibe of the series by episode 9.

Like, everything before that point was handled so well. Everything you mention regarding growing up in a bubble and how it can be both a stabilizing force, but also a source of anxiety when confronted with having to actually step out of said bubble; It all came through even though there was no real 'plot' beyond your typical SoL situations and Dela antics. Thats why the "oh noes the prince needs a bride" shit was so frustrating for me. All the 'conflict' was right there. There was no need for Tamako to spend 2 episodes worrying about the prince when anybody who was watching knew she would never up and leave for some random fag.

But thats just my personal nitpick because the rest of the writing was so well done. That part where she is confused as to why the people who raised her seem so eager for her to move on with her life is one of my favorites. She doesn't have some screaming fit about it to make it seem 'serious' or anything, shes just genuinely confused like the average kid in her shoes would be. The audience can read whats going on, but shes too young to understand. Thats how good drama should be woven into SoL. Mostly through the subtext.

But I like this video?

Kyoani is a master of one.

>>162083938
>what is cherry picking?

>>162115723
The market itself is Tamako's bubble, and Dera coming in and helping solve her problems is, in my opinion, a message on how interacting with others outside of your bubble can help solve problems and form new connections (he frequently gives Tamako and co. advice and brings in Choi and glasses girl) but getting out of your bubble is something YOU must do, which is why I think Dera wasn't in the movie.

The theme also shows up in Midori accepting her newfound ADOLESCENT feelings and Kanna getting over her fear of heights.
