They literally have the best cg in the entirety of the anime industry.

Yea. Now go get some taste, Steve.
>>
>>15596691
Is this actually true?
>>
>>15597356
The Harlock and Seiya movies, despite their massive issues with plotting and pacing, were pretty decent looking movies but they were entirely done in CG for what its worth.

Not sure if it'll be the same as the Z movie though.

Going by their recent movies, yeah. Who else? Production IG? Bleh.

Maybe just as a tease. The other Toei movies had problems with trying to fit too much in one movie especially the Saint Seiya one.

CG is most likely the reason they neglected their 2d team. Toei gets a lot of shit, but they're actually smart. They know it's the future of anime, and they invested heavily in it.

These videos show that they're among the best when it comes to 3d animation in the industry. They also understood that their anime shouldn't look like video games, so not going full 60 fps should be a no brainer, and yet others do it just for supposedly "smoother animation", but smoother animation can also mean a lesser cinematic experience in many cases.

>>15599228
>>15599231
>>15598937

If you want an idea of what's standard for cg in the industry, just look at Cyborg 009 Call of Justice. It's not terrible, but it's on a level below with some very unnatural animation.

I'm hoping not. I don't need another Great Mazinger tease if they don't have any intention of following through with Great Mazinger.
>>
>>15596691
Yeah I know I was kidding. I actually enjoyed Harlock quite a bit.
>>
>>15599286
Yeah, though it was more notable because of the fantastic choreography.
>>
>>15599461
This. I'm hoping it's conclusive enough. It's a movie, they won't be able to cram too much in it, otherwise it will just end up like the Saint Seiya movie where they went through the entire Gold Saint arc in 1 and a half hour.
>>
>>15599689
It helps that they used an actual martial artist for that one.

>>15599841
Maybe they'll pull a Mazinkaiser and remove some of the generals. At the very least, Ashura and Brocken should make it.

Like who?
Pygman is easy to use as an agent and he doesn't require much attention. Schtroheim isn't really a general, but his subplot should be removed to streamline the plot.
>>
>>15603591
There's still Archduke Gorgon, who comes directly from the Mycenae, but did not show up in Mazinkaiser until the movie. Granted, he can still act as a spy in the background.
>>
>>15603591
>>15603686
Whatever they're doing, they should avoid another saint seiya fiasco.
>>
>>15603686
Archduke shouldn't really be used as Hell's general, but instead he can be used to set up Mycenae presense in a scene or two.

I didn't know it was going to be a 2D/3D mix. Now this has got me wondering if they're testing the waters with this for a possible series like they did with Dragonball. They seem to be figuring out there's still a foreign market they can take advantage of.

So if this is a success do you think they will go the route they did with Dragon Ball Super and turn the movie into part of a TV anime? Or do you think they will go the Digimon Tri route that they basically turn an anime season into several movies where every 6-8 months we basically get a batch of 3-5 episodes per theatrical release?

I just want to see more of Shin Mazinger's world instead of another anime reboot. Toei can keep the movies if they want, but they better not turn it in a tv anime.
>>
>>15613772
>I just want to see more of Shin Mazinger's world instead of another anime reboot
Anon it's been SEVEN years and Shin didn't do very well ratings wise. Shin season 2 is pretty much confirmed to never happen at this point.
>>
>>15613772
While I wanted to see more Shin Mazinger too I'm not naive enough to think that's ever going to happen.
>>
>>15613779
It actually had decent ratings for it's time slot. It's the blurays that weren't enough.

>>15613780
And that's fine. I prefer if Shin is considered the de facto point of entry for Mazinger in general. It's called True Mazinger after all.

Mazinger needs to remain as much as possible as a high quality production values series like the original Mazinkaiser and SKL. Shin made for its lack of production values with great storytelling. If anything, the show should have been shorter, and remained as an OVA.
>>
>>15613753
I hope so. Mazinger Z deserves more. Hell, I hope that if we're suppose to be getting some other Go Nagai robots in this, Great and Grendizer finally make a reappearance in the modern age.
>>
>>15613800
I'm not really interested in reliving the z chapter all over again. It's been done to death. What would be more interesting if they adapted something like MazinSaga or a new God Mazinger. I think that would be way cooler than another MazingerZ.

>>
>>15613800
I really want to see Grendizer again. He deserves better than one series.
>>
>>15613791
>I prefer if Shin is considered the de facto point of entry for Mazinger in general.
>The most different Mazinger that goes furthest off the rails of what makes a Mazinger story a Mazinger story should be the defacto starting point
Look I like Shin a lot but what you are saying is lunacy

>Shin made for its lack of production values with great storytelling.
What in the hell are you talking about? The strength was the directing which was also the weakness. Imagawa is amazing at coming up with interesting ideas and visuals but he's usually very poor at putting them into a cohesive and well told story. Storytelling was easily the weak point of Shin Mazinger.
>>
>>15613814
Fuck off toeicuck
>>
>>15613820
The storytelling was the best part about Shin and it presented the most interesting Mazinger lore. Only Toei spics would say otherwise.

>>
>>15613831
I'm fine with movie. But some people want a Toei to series and they are out of their minds.

the mecha genre is rather competitive, and then you want Toei to produce a crappy looking series with no budget. Mazinger deserves better.
>>
>>15613818
Well THAT's interesting. If it's still set in the Toei continuity that means we might see Great Mazinger and Grendizer.
>>
>>15613842
That's why I said I'd prefer a series of movies to a TV show. They don't have to be ultra-high budget and still be way more polished than TV stuff.

But one step at a time. Let's see what happens with this movie first.
>>
>>15613842
As long as it's Mazinger, I don't care.
I love all versions of it.
>>
>>15613845
So I assume the movie is in continuity with the original trilogy? If it's ten years after, does that mean it will be a sequel to Grendizer?

If that's what they're doing, then I'm all for it. I don't want to see Mazinger getting the Tiger Mask W or Saint Seiya treatment though. I'll settle for yearly movies instead.
>>
>>15613824
I think the ideas were interesting but went way too deep into them to the point it was distracting. The original elements overshadowed the Mazinger elements which is what turned many people off. I like the ideas but things like Zeus and alien invaders felt really unnecessary is a way to change ancient Mycenae civilization creating monstrous machines. Zeus himself felt really unneeded and it felt like it just made Mazinger and Kouji less important.

Also the most interesting take on Mazinger lore is the Shin Mazinger Zero manga's.

>>15613831
I am just speaking my mind, and what I want is more than just a single movie I would like some kind of continued content for the series. I hope the movie makes the series mainstream popular again.

>>15613842
That's why I originally said a TV show or the Digimon Tri movie release model. Besides Dragon Ball and Mazinger are worlds apart in that Nagai gives a fuck about his series and he won't let them shit out rushed budget garbage. If Toei attempts to phone it in this movie or for a new series, I doubt it because they have wanted another chance Mazinger for ages, he would shut the whole thing down and officially burn that bridge permanently.

Then you're right. A series of movies is what Mazinger deserves. Toei should stay away from to anime as far as they can. I actually like Tiger Mask W and Saint Seiya Omega but I think toei's ideas and directing is too old school for me. So I was actually surprised with the plot of the Captain Harlock movie. I want more of these kind of subversive ideas that are closer to Nagai's than your average reboot.
>>
>>15613845
>>15613854
I kinda hope they don't show up or are very minor if they do. I want the spotlight to be on Kouji and Mazinger, sharing that limelight with the other two would hurt any chance of this breathing new life into the series. This movie needs to be about Kabuto Kouji and Mazinger.
>>
>>15613845
Probably won't see Grendizer. Remember, Duke fucked off back to space to repopulate a planet with his cousin
>>
>>15613863
I'm assuming that's going to be the case. "There's a new threat, Koji is the only dumb motherfucker around to go and punch it."
>>
>>15613821
>>15613856
Now you're just shitposting

>>15613867
Maybe just make him come back to help them defeat some kind of enemy. I'ts not like he'll stay there forever.
>>
>>15613871
Just having some kind of reference to Great and Grendizer would at least be nice. Great could just fight the second in command of whatever new enemy shows up, and act as supporting instead of a main character.

>>15613874
They said they discovered a 'new form of Photon Energy' too, right? I wonder what kind of upgrade we'll be seeing on Z?
>>
>>15613867
I don't think we'll see him in this movie but if it's a success, anything's possible. They'll probably drop a reference about him or something though to get the marketing engines turning.
>>
>>15613855
I like human Minerva, but I don't care much for any of the other elements. And I love Zeus, and the whole show being played out like a Greek mythology epic with the family drama etc.

A new tv series by Toei would be ultimately damaging to the IP in my opinion. I want to see more original ova stuff like skl.

I mean, we have Mazin Emperor G to work with now. If I was dp, I would make a new Mazinger ova series that shares its continuity with Shin Mazinger, except many years later and I wouldn't sell it as a direct sequel, but a rather a new universe. I wouldn't even put Shin in its title.

A bit like what they did with the srw og inspector anime which looked nothing like divine wars. I would even radically modify the designs as well.
>>
>>15613880
>I wonder what kind of upgrade we'll be seeing on Z?

They're probably intent on making Z the top dog again, at least for now.
>>
>>15613883
>I like human Minerva, but I don't care much for any of the other elements. And I love Zeus, and the whole show being played out like a Greek mythology epic with the family drama etc.
I prefer Mazinger being a mazin, a force of nature that embodies robotics and man's choice to be either a devil or a god with that power. The different universes, the gruesome fate of Kouji becoming an undying android, outliving his own flesh in order to continue being the paragon of justice, how every universe revolves around Kouji and Mazinger, that there is an innate link between the two, all the best ideas they played with that are just the foundation of Mazinger so they can be the the series we love but very different.

I want this movie to succeed and rather than be a sequel to anything I am glad it's it's own thing, and I hope moving forward they either build off this movie or keep making new fresh ideas. I want this series to set in stone that Mazinger gets the Getter treatment, where the story is the same basis but it's always very different in where it goes and how it's executed. And maybe if this succeeds we could get a similar treatment and revival for Getter maybe?

Eh... it's alright. Zero was definitely a lot of fun. I don't understand this need to have an in-universe multi-verse though. It just seems like a cheap (though admittedly clever) way to keep autists from arguing over pointless things like which continuity is "canon."

While Toei Getter is fine I wouldn't want a continuation of it, I'd just want a Getter movie or new anime. And I want Kawagoe directing it again.

>>15613924
I don't mean for the different shows to be linked, I just really liked that there were so many different Mazinger universes that Mazinger was predetermined to become Zero and only in the rare instances that Jouzu wasn't evil was Kouji able to control Mazinger. The only series I've ever particularly liked the idea of a multiverse is Getter purely because Getter rays are of a universal scale.

But that comes down to preference, I prefer multidimensional Mazinger and you prefer Greek mythology Mazinger.

Anno trashed it while praising the manga as his bible and he's one of the most celebrated creators in Japan, if you're going to appeal to authority.

The manga incarnation has been much more profitable, spawning sequels and countless merchandise. Shin Getter is probably the single most profitable Getter Robo model and it comes directly from the manga with no relation to Toei.

>The director is working so hard he lost a lot of weight
>The director is so passionate about Mazinger Z that he researched every existing document about Mazinger Z and briefed his team thanks to it
Dayum, that's a lot of dedication.
>The movie will take place 10 years after the show and will introduce a new character named Lisa. She's kind of a contrast to Sayaka
In before she dies. Good of them not just to retread things entirely, but too bad the Hell generals probably won't show up at all though.
>Go Nagai had some fears about the 2D and CGI mix but he's actually really happy with how it ended up, it looks really cool he said !
Good to see even the man himself was concerned about it.
>Some other robots of the Go Nagai universe should be in the movie !
Neat, can't wait.

10 years from Toeizinger?
Should I watch Toeizinger first?

Most of the merchandising was based on either the Toei anime or the OVAs. Only third party companies like Studio Half-Eye were doing anything based on the manga. And I don't give a fuck about what Anno thinks. Also, you're giving way too much attention to a single reference he did once. He always overpraises all his inspirations when he talks about them and Getter Robo is not one he likes to quote a lot.

Try harder to backup your claims, Juan. Getter Robo manga is niche as hell.

I think they don't look hot blooded and nagaish enough, but what do you expect from Toeizinger?

Boring and lame is kind of how they roll. They won't rock the boat too much design wise in risk of pissing off angry and old Mazinfags.
>>
>>15614291
Technically if it's 10 years after, that means Grendizer must have already happened, but who the fuck knows if they're still going to acknowledge Grendizer as part of the saga.

I'm cautiously optimistic, although that launch did look worse than the actual action.

And what the fuck was that new Mazinger at the end there? I hope their attempts to modernize Z don't go too far. That thing didn't look like it belonged in Mazinger.

Toeibros claims that they were made simultaneously and that Nagai only created Mazinger when prompted by Toei while mangabros claim that Nagai already developed Mazinger before Toei got involved. Same argument with Getter.

I agree on the over-designed part. I'm fine with some extra panels on the stomach and stuff but they should have kept the limbs a little sleeker.

I think it's just a flashback or the movie's opening sequence. Note that it launches from a lab that looks identical to the old one, while there's also a shot in the trailer with the lab surrounded by new buildings.

>>15614846
Alright, that looks pretty damn cool. The animation during the launch wasn't so great, but the fight scene looked awesome. The bit where he punches through the beast with the Iron Cutter out was sick. I'm excited.

>>
>>15615004
The Toei trilogy is old but if you're into that sort of thing and don't mind the insanely dated animation, it can be fun.

If you're not just watch Mazinkaiser next.
>>
>>15615004
None. You only need to read the original.
>>
>>15615003
Well... technically the Mazingers and Hell's forces are knockoffs of Mycenae technology in most versions.

Taking the ancient Greek connection a step further by throwing in the gods isn't a huge leap.
>>
>>15615012
What about the OVAs and movies? To be honest, I'm not as keen on Nagai's storytelling as others here are. The design and characters are cool, but the plot itself feels like he's flying by the seat if his pants at all times, and the art is really rough.
>>
>>15615022
Watch Mazinkaiser and its movie and see what you think. After that watch Shin Mazinger.

If you're an Imagawa fan maybe reverse those and watch Shin first.
>>
>>15615026
>Imagawa
Yes please.

Are there any other manga I should read after Great? I know there are like a dozen others.
>>
>>15615018
>Well... technically the Mazingers and Hell's forces are knockoffs of Mycenae technology in most versions.
Yes that's sort of the point of when Great Mazinger arrive. The Mechanical beasts Kouji's been fighting are inferior outdated models and Z is basically unfinished work of Juuzo.

>isn't a huge leap.
It sort of is though. There has been things like psychoknisis, ancient high tech civilation, and later aliens but never outright mythology fantasy.

>What about Z Mazinger
That is a completely different take on the Mazinger lore where it made a point that Kouji was chosen instead of getting a giant robo because his grandfather felt really bad.
>>
>>15615031
And Shin is also its own take so who cares? What I mean by not being much of a leap is if you're making a different version of things, it doesn't take a genius to go, "Whoooa let's throw in some Greek mythology."

Personally I'm with you and don't need or particularly care for any of the Zeus shit but I like Shin as its own thing.

<ストーリー>あれから10年―。新たな運命が人類を待ち受ける…

かつて悪の科学者Dr.ヘル率いる地下帝国によって滅亡の危機に瀕した人類は、兜甲児が操るスーパーロボット・マジンガーZや光子力研究所の仲間の手によって、悪の野望を阻止し、平和を取り戻した。
あれから10年-。
パイロットを離れ、祖父や父のように科学者の道を歩み始めた兜甲児は富士山の地中深く埋まった超巨大構造物と謎の生命反応に遭遇する-。

かつてのヒーロー・兜甲児の下す未来への決断とは。それは神にも悪魔にもなれる―再び人類の未来を託されたマジンガーZと人々の激闘を描く、壮大なアクション巨編!

Japanese TV didn't try to spin anything. Del Toro was overjoyed to see the 1:1 RX78. He's a real /m/an that loves KYODAI ROBOTTO of all kinds. He likes Patlabor as well.

Yeah, no shit.
Your point?

>>15615491
They made it entirely about Gundam, even though he cited Tetsujin, Mazinger and Ultraman.
>>
>>15615500
They were in the Gundam Front exhibit in Odaiba, of course everything there was Gundam. There's another segment where he went to a different exhibit with Godzilla and Ultraman monsters.

Holy fuck that looks bad. Why were they all clapping?

The action is good

The Pilder scenes looked Playstation 1 tier but the combat scene admittedly looked good, much better than I would have expected from CG

>>15615656
Because people are allowed to have different opinions from you, and what looks bad to you can look great to other people. And as long as no living being was harmed to make it, there's nothing wrong with that. Sorry. your opinions and "objective criticism" aren't the center of the universe

Also it's to note that the movie will be complete mid july.

Then they'll start looking for distributors.

The relevant bits

Quand j’étais enfant, j’ai beaucoup regardé Astro et lu des mangas évoquant les robots. Je me suis dit que quand je serais grand, je dessinerais des robots. Mais je ne voulais pas copier Osamu Tezuka. Pour être accepté dans ce milieu de dessinateurs de robots, il fallait que je fasse quelque chose de nouveau. C’était à la fois un challenge et par respect pour mes maitres.

Quand j’ai commencé à travailler sur ce concept, les magazines de pré-publications de mangas ne voulaient plus d’histoires de robots. Je n’étais plus le bienvenu, sauf si je présentais un projet d’animation. J’ai donc d’abord travaillé sur l’anime en collaboration avec la Toei.
Nous étions sur le point de signer pour la télé. Mais là, la condition était qu’un magazine accepte de publier le manga. J’ai donc arrêté la série papier que je dessinais alors pour me consacrer à Mazinger. Mon rédacteur en chef n’était pas content mais je l’ai persuadé d’accepter ce nouveau projet.

Translation :

When I was a kid, I watched a lot of Atom and read manga with robots. I told myself that when I became big, I would draw robots. But I didn't want to copy Osamu Tezuka. To be accepted in the robot artist circle, I had to do something new. It was both a challenge and out of respect for my masters.

When I started working on the concept, the pre-publication manga magazines didn't want anymore stories with robots. I wasn't welcomed, only if I presented an animation project. So I first worked on the anime in collaboration with Toei. We were about to sign for the TV. But here, the condition was that the magazine accepted to publish the manga. So I stopped manga that I was drawing at the time to dedicate myself to Mazinger. My editor in chief wasn't happy, but I convinced him to accept this new project.
>>
In other words,

Go Nagai always wanted to draw robot manga, but couldn't, because everyone who could have published his work thought that robot manga was overdone and it would only be accepted if it was an animation project.

After doing some initial work on his concept, he then took it to Toei so an anime could happen, but also on the condition he could publish the Mazinger Z manga.

Anime happened, Nagai got the go-ahead on the manga, and boom.

Toeishills are wrong.
>>
Goddamn, that movie looks fuckin' stellar. Really looking forward to eventually seeing it. The new version of the theme from Aniki sounds great as well
>>
>>15615785
The theme was definitely an upgrade.
>>
>>15614967
I have? I like Shin a lot despite my personal gripes with it, and not only does different not mean bad but I enjoy most of the new stuff it brought to Mazinger. But Shin is very clearly an Imagawa anime first and a Mazinger anime second.
>>
>>15615797
Not really. The earlier episodes were all Imagawa, but once we got around episode 11, it's been adapting most of Nagai's (And Ken Ishikawa's) stuff.
>>
>>15615802
>it's been adapting most of Nagai's
The hell are you talking about? At that point outside some references it's full on Imagawa's own story using Mazinger characters.

>(And Ken Ishikawa's)
I don't remember anything from Ishikawa being in Shin
>>
>>15615809
>At that point outside some references it's full on Imagawa's own story using Mazinger characters.
It mixed original story with Z Mazinger, but besides Kouji's mom tying cast closer and Energer fight it was more or less all inclusive adaptation.
>I don't remember anything from Ishikawa being in Shin
Mazinger Z: Relic of Terror
>>
>>15615818
>besides Kouji's mom tying cast closer and Energer fight it was more or less all inclusive adaptation.
Except all the god stuff, Ashura's backstory, the Mycenae alien invasion, the Kurogane Five, evil Kenzo, Mazinger is connected with Zeus, the weird time travel memory bubble thing inside Kedora, etc. It's far away from being an adaptation outside using certain set pieces and bringing in characters from Mazinger. My personal biggest gripe with Shin is just how unimportant Kouji and Mazinger are at times. He shares the spotlight so often with his mom, Ashura, and Kurogane Five.

>Mazinger Z: Relic of Terror
My mistake I was only thinking of Ishikawa IPs not what he contributes to Mazinger
>>
>>15615809
>The hell are you talking about?
Did you even read the manga? Many scenes are one to one recreations from the original manga, particularly episode 11, and some parts of the Lorelei arc. They even slipped a Gosaku Ota panel reference in there (When Ashura tries to kill himself with a glassshard, which is also in the Ota manga)

>I don't remember anything from Ishikawa being in Shin
How about the entire Mazinger Z design, and the whole plot about the Kedora which is taken straight from Relic of Terror?
>>
>>15615218
You're confusing him with Imagawa, actually.

>>15615675
Could you be any more of a retarded fanboy right now?
>>
>>15615874
And can you stop being a contrarian little shit?
>>
>>15615875
>nobody can possibly legitimately dislike garbage
Please stop crying.
>>
>>15615850
>Many scenes are one to one recreations from the original manga, particularly episode 11,
Yes, certain scenes are pretty well adapted. But the majority of it was either all original or Imagawa's spin on the original story.

>and some parts of the Lorelei arc.
Yes parts, the majority was Imagawa being Imagawa like Kenzo or Kouji/Ankokuji fucking around in a swamp. The Lorelei story became rewritten to focus around Tsubasa.
>>
>>15615884
>Please stop crying.
Says the person kicking and screaming because some people aren't narcissistic little shits and not hate everything they see.
>>
>>15615920
>Kouji/Ankokuji fucking around in a swam
Kouji fucked around in a swamp in the manga. Even had Mario N7.
>>
>>15615921
I'm sorry some people don't like eating garbage. Also the word you're looking for is pessimistic.
>>
>>15615924
Yes lending to the same but different that I mentioned Imagawa did. Instead it was minor cuts to show Kouji mostly working on repairing his crashed Pilder rather than the original where it focuses on him and Sayaka looking to uncover the story about ghosts. The manga story was a story about Kouji, the one in Shin was to give him something to do while the important plot revolving around Tsubasa was explained. I'm not saying one is better than the other, but these two "same scenes" are executed so differently that the story tell/are a part of are world apart.
>>
>>15615938
Fuck off hater. You can repeat it being garbage 1000 times and you still won't change anyone's minds
Stop thinking what's garbage to you is garbage to all of humanity, you selfcentered fuck
Do you have your own dick so deep down your throat that you cant' even beging to consider that?
Because then, you're a retard and the only objective truth here is that you ain't above anyone. But the most ridiculous clown here,, too retarded to even realize he's a jester instead of a king
>>
>>15615921
Man, just let it go and continue to bask in the glow of a new Mazinger instead of allowing yourself to ruin the high by being pissed that someone doesn't feel the same way.
>>
>>15615938
>Also the word you're looking for is pessimistic.
No you dumbfuck.

You're a narcissist little shit who thinks the entire world revolves around you and your opinion.
>>
>>15615994
Cry more about people not liking garbage.

>>15615996
>bask in the glow of new garbage
That doesn't quite work.
>>
>>15616007
Cry more about people liking good stuff
>>
>>15616004
No I don't. Something being good or bad is objective fact, and peoples opinions have nothing to do with that.
>>
>>15616009
I would if I could.
>>
>>15615996
If a jester thinks he's a king, is it not obvious and correct to remind him of his place? Why should we allow the jester's delusions to continue?
>>15616012
It's not objective, retard.
What standards and methods should we follow to determine what's good or not?
Yours? Nah. Fuck off. I am not a retarded sheep. To me, it is good. If you say good and bad are objective, explain this without sucking your own dick
How come I claim it's good, yet you claim it's bad?
>>
>>15616014
That's what you're doing right now
>>
>>15616021
Standards of quality that apply to every fictional work ever made?

>>15616023
If only.
>>
>>15616021
>If a jester thinks he's a king, is it not obvious and correct to remind him of his place? Why should we allow the jester's delusions to continue?

If an idiot keeps feeding a troll, the troll will keep eating.

But now I'm realizing either you're both trolls trying to shit this thread to oblivion or you're just autistic and can't ignore someone making fun of your robutt cartoon.
>>
>>15616027
This thread is already dead, why would he do that? And it is the latter.
>>
>>15616026
And what are those "standards"?
Because I haven't seen anyone even begin to properly define a single objective standard. All "standards" that I see are subjective, but retards try to pass them as "objective", but while I can see how "2+4=6" is objective, I can't say the same for your so called "standards of quality"
You still didn't answer my question about how is our argument possible if quality is as objective as you claim
>>
>>15616038
Well now that we cleared that up, carry on.
>>
>>15616038
Yep. You''re too autistic and can't stand to see someone say something is good if YOU claim it's bad. Because it's all about YOU and YOUR quality standards
>>
>>15616040
Quality of writing, visuals, etc.

>>15616048
That's you as well.
>>
>>15616055
>quality of writing, visuals, etc
All subjective. Not a single way of determining what's "good writing" or "bad writing".
What's melodaramatic to someone may be good drama to someone else.
If something remains unexplained, that may be a major plot hole to someone, but someone else might not mind
Visuals could be more objective, yes.
But the web generation techniques in 2D aren't accepted by some people and the same can be said of CGI, so we enter the realm of subjectivity yet again
And yet again, you refuse to answer the question I raised
If quality standards are so objective, why is there so much discussion and arquing about shows quality?
You won't find anyone arguing about 3+2=5. for example. Or the speed of light.
Does that not mean, then, that quality isn't as objective as you claim?
>>
>>15616071
>Not a single way of determining what's "good writing" or "bad writing".
This is false
>>
>>15616071
>why is there so much discussion and arquing about shows quality?
People are retarded, myself included. Everything else you said is a bunch of bullshit and blatant lies.
>>
>>15615874
No that's definitely Nagai. You don't try actually reading his stuff sometime.
>>
>>15615656
It's easier to hire CG animators than to train and pay real ones.

>>15615675
Why are CGfag posts so similar to mentally ill people like furies? They all sound like "Stop telling me I'm a shit eating retard! I'm not hurting you so my opinion is immune to criticism and my tastes can't be judged by any objective standards!" Why are you all so fucking stupid?
>>
>>15616130
It's only a mess because you're a dumbass.
>>
>>15616138
The cg in the movie is objectively good. Prove me wrong.

Oh that's right, you can't.

Get the fuck out of here, Pedro, or better yet, go back to Mexico.
>>
>>15616130
>>15616116
>>15616138
>the only objective truth is MY hate. Fuck off with your defense
I'm still waiting for those "objective standards"
I'm still waiting to be proved wrong with solid evidence beyond "you're wrong because I say so"
>>
>>15616130
No, it's Imagawa. Follow your own advice.
>>
>>15616147
No it's objectively garbage. You enjoying the taste of garbage doesn't mean you're not eating garbarge.
>>
>>15616145
Seriously, go read Mazinger Z and follow the series of events leading up to a teenager piloting a robot that defends the country. You liking the story telling doesn't mean it's not messy.
>>
>>15616138

When you're dedicated to being a retard you're immune to criticism so why bother? Let people eat shit if they want to eat shit.
>>
>>15616159
No. You are the one who's objectively garbage. Every time you talk, you spew garbage out of filthy mouth.

Get fucked.
>>
>>15616163
It's only messy to people with below average IQ who can't follow a basic plot as simple as Mazinger's.
>>
>>15616166
The problem is that they aren't just eating shit, they're taking my food off the menu and replacing it with shit.

>>15616174
No really, why are CGfags so impossibly fucking dumb?
>>
>>15616177
It's amazing that you miss the point this hard and have the gall to call other people stupid. When did I say it was in any way difficult to follow it wrap my head around? I said it was messy and haphazard, not convoluted or complex.
>>
>>15616180
>impossibly fucking dumb
You don't even understand objectivity and you're calling people dumb. Holy shit you're a grade a retard.
>>
>>15616188
>When did I say it was in any way difficult to follow it wrap my head around?
When you called it messy, meaning that you're stupid.
>>
>>15616191
>standards don't exist in art because it isn't a hard science so it's not objective and I'm not an idiot!
Just kill yourself so humanity can rid itself of whatever mental defect your genes carry.
>>
>>15616196
>Messy means hard to understand
Ah sorry, I forgot we have a lot of spics here who don't speak English that well.
>>
>>15616199
Standards exist, but your taste is garbage and below standard. Also go back to Mexico.
>>
>>15616210
Try not to trip while you backpedal that fast, dumb spic.
>>
>>15616220
No, you understood that right.

Standards exist, and my tastes are above standard, and yours below.
>>
>>15616205
you're the spic here pedro
>>
>>15616205
Yes, because you find a relatively simple straight forward series "messy". It doesn't meant the series is actually messy, it only means that you have a brain defect.
>>
>>15616224
>Como estas amigo, me gusta la fecal matter
Ok Pedro.
>>
>>15616232
Ok then. Explain the series of events that led to a highschool boy piloting a robot that was put in charge of defending Japan from robot monsters. Explain how it wasn't messy.

You really need to learn what words actually mean.
>>
>>15616234
>talking in spanish
>calls other people spic
haha oh wow, nice try pablo
>>
>>15616238
>Explain how it wasn't messy.
Explain how it was.
>>
>>15616263
Anon I asked you to recount some events. Surely you actually remember them.
>>
>>15616275
Dr. Juuzo made giant robot in secret, said doctor gives robot to grandson.

Mazinger Z?

Oh wow that was so hard.
>>
>>15616238
>grandpa builds robot
>kid pilots robot
>only robot can defeat bad guys
>kid has to protect his home from bad guys
WOW
>>
>>15616275
>>15616280

And then he sucks really bad at piloting it at first which is kind of great since it retroactively parodies future works inspired by it.
>>
>>15616279
But why was he tasked with defending Japan?

>>15616280
>Random kid rampages through the city
>It's fine. You'll figure it out eventually. Please allow my hot daughter to teach you and then we'll just leave it to you
>>
>>15616339
Literally Juzo states that it's Kouji's property and he also designed it specifically for Kouji to pilot so it's not controlled conventionally but instead laid out in a way that Kouji would naturally feel like Mazinger is an extension of his body. Professor Yuma, founder of and controller of the greatest energy source vouches for Kouji and trusts Juzo's judgement so he sees Kouji as the one who should control Mazinger. Not to mention Dr. Hell attacks daily so who its better to trust the person who successfully beats him, so rather than risk lives trying to train someone new who might fuck up they should refine Kouji and make him a better pilot.
>>
>>15616373
>He controls it naturally, except for when he almost destroyed the city
>Dr. Hell attacks daily, but only after Kouji is ready
The entire story has no buildup or lead in down time between events. It's just a stream of things Nagai thinks are cool one after the other work hardly any thought put into connecting them.
>>
>>15616400
>He controls it naturally, except for when he almost destroyed the city
Yeah his sense of justice calmed him down and made him desperate to sync up with Mazinger

>Dr. Hell attacks daily, but only after Kouji is ready
Plot convenience, Dr. Hell only started his world conquest the day Kouji took to Mazinger. It was Dr. Hell sending out a mechanical beast that caused the earthquake that killed Juuzo so he's the reason Kouji leapt into action.

>The entire story has no buildup or lead in down time between events. It's just a stream of things Nagai thinks are cool one after the other work hardly any thought put into connecting them.
It's almost like its designed to be episodic with every story being self-contained with the only carrying over results being character relations, upgrades, personality developments, and an overall atmosphere change that Kouji is becoming the established hero. This then culminated into the actual narrative line where Kouji goes to square off against Dr. Hell.

Mazinger isn't some perfect masterpiece of writing but it's competently done and it's told/executed in a very entertaining way.
>>
>>15616420
>Yeah that happened
Glad we agree.

>Plot convenience
Which is thoughtless, poor, and messy writing. Hence what I've been saying.

>episodic
You can still put a little effort into tying ideas together. I said the writing was messy, but the ideas and characters and robots are cool. You've said absolutely nothing to the contrary. It sounds like you're just mad that someone brought up it's shortcomings.
>>
>>15616470
>Which is thoughtless, poor, and messy writing. Hence what I've been saying.
Or it's just what causes the start of a series. Most beginnings to stories are exactly that, plot convenience. At least this tied together that Dr. Hell caused the death of Juuzo and in turn caused Kouji to pilot Mazinger to stop him.

>You can still put a little effort into tying ideas together.
How does it not? The events steadily develop the relationships between the heroes, the villains, and develops then as people. Sure there's some sloppy execution here and there but it's overall done fine.

You are painting it as messy but it comes with the format. I'm not saying the storytelling is perfect but you are talking like its absolute garbage.
>>
>>15616505
All of the events are slapped together like that.

>developed relationships
Ok, I'll just assume you're shitposting at this point.
>>
>>15616509
Just because your little brain can't make the connection doesn't mean all the events are just slapped together.

Stop shitposting and get a life, Pablo.
>>
>>15616536
>They happened sequentially so they're properly connected!
You're one dumb spic.
>>
>>15616509
>All of the events are slapped together like that.
Again it's a monster of the week format, episodes/chapters are pretty independent outside of learning about characters, character development, character relations, and robot upgrades. You are going to have to be more specific about the problem here because it currently just sounds like you dislike the MotW format which isn't an intent fault of Nagai's writing.

>Ok, I'll just assume you're shitposting at this point.
Boss and Kouji start off hating each other, they steadily grow to become friends. Sayaka and Kouji also have a burgeoning romance that eventually culminates into them moving overseas together.
>>
>>15616566
But and Kouji have one fight, then their relationship doesn't change at all after the first encounter. Sayaka goes from mild dere to dere. That's the extent of all character development in the series. It's amazing how hard you're reaching to defend lackluster writing.

0079 had a fight literally every episode, and it didn't have to sacrifice plot progression or character development to do it.
>>
>>15616576
Boss and Kouji*
>>
>>15616576
Did I ever say it was as good as 0079 in terms of writing? I'm just saying there's basic stuff there but it's not the mess you are claiming it is. 0079 and Mazinger are worlds apart because 0079 had an ongoing narrative Mazinger was a MotW story with self contained stories. You are comparing apples to oranges.

I'm not saying that Mazinger had great or amazing character relations but they WERE there. You started all this saying that Nagai is a messy/bad storyteller but he managed to tell interesting self contained stories which is an entirely different kind of storytelling from what you are comparing it to.

You said it was like that because of the format, and I've shown that's wrong. You also said there was character development, and that's wrong. The series has cool designs and some fun ideas, but the writing itself isn't good. Get over it.

@15617423 because fuck giving any more (You)s

I'm not an animator myself you retarded shitposter. You're just legitimately retarded if you think this. It's like saying a motorcycle mechanic isn't a real mechanic because he doesn't work on cars. No, they are specialists with special skills. Just like how a 2D animator who does effects animation is a specialist. Go ask /3/ for a lesson, I'm sure they can teach you a lot.

You're bait made me unironically annoyed, congrats.

Mazinger wasn't episodic. Hell, almost all of volume 3 (going by the re-release) was about Shiro's robot girlfriend.
>>
>>15619255
>Shitty CG "animator" triggered that someone called his craft garbage
CG cartoons and anime are shit. The people making it are hacks. Spending a long time or working hard on something doesn't make it good. Mari Okada spends a lot of time and energy writing, but everything she produces is garbage. Let me restate it in case you're too stupid (I think you are) to follow: CG in anime is complete shit, the people making it are talentless hacks, and it's the worst thing to happen to the industry since the curse of Osamu.
