2024-02-25 05:53:09 +0000 UTCi think furuta is better than kaneki because because furuta represents ishida's artistic expression through art style. his journey is explicitly art-focus as opposed to kaneki's continuity-focused journey and it's far less tell than show which i love about characters. i also mentioned last time that ougi > ragi but that shouldn't require elaboration (plus it's 1 take per comment >.<)

2024-02-19 07:44:30 +0000 UTCCan not say I am a giant fan of most of the Evangelion rebuild movies, but 3.0+1.0 has such a big gap over the other 3 it is insane. I'm a huge fan of the original series but the first 3 movies just aren't it imo. 2.0 and 3.0 (imo) often times felt directionless with it's character writing and felt like a jerk off of mecha anime budget in the scenes. Eva non-intentionally started the waifu war on its original release but the rebuilds more feel like they're focusing on making these characters fit that circle. Don't got much to say about her but Mari is kinda just boring. The main difference in 3.0+1.0 is that it genuinely feels like they realized these problems and went back to fix them. Rei and Asuka especially feel like they are much more full character wise and events which happen genuinely feel like they have an impact. The pace change in the beginning very much help it build an environment slowly which makes the "rei scene" have such a great lasting effect throughout the rest of the movie. I know the rebuilds were going to be different, and hell, I still wish they were more manga like adaptations. I respect them but I don't love them.

2024-02-18 02:10:08 +0000 UTCI enjoyed vinland saga season 1 but found season 2 to be even more enjoyable don't get me wrong the action in first season is incredible and seeing Thorfinn as a revenge hungry protagonist was fun I just feel like story arks like this have been done more often than not and seeing Thorfinn grow from someone who would watch the world burn in order to obtain his Vengeance no matter who is caught in the crossfire into a man who is regretful of his actions and seeks to redeem himself I personally find to be a more compelling story

2024-02-14 17:38:16 +0000 UTCThe FF7 Remake was a complete train wreck. You run through ugly corridors, fight enemies with too much health by figuring out if they’re weak to fire or lighting — and get rewarded with a dragged out and poorly paced, 14 year old’s fan-fiction version of the FF7. It should just have been a beautified take on the OG.

2024-01-31 04:28:06 +0000 UTCfull metal alchemist more like full metal alchemid. It's a mid show is all i'm saying and I can't wait for the fans to treat this comment like any other anime with a slight chance of dethroning it from the top lol.

2024-01-29 23:38:33 +0000 UTCSorry if this isn't a good subject, just kind of tired of rose colored glasses being the reason why people say a series is the best. Like, art/writing/world building/interactions between the characters you've made. All of that counts, but no one ever brings that up.

2024-01-29 19:57:38 +0000 UTCI will add, I'm mostly frustrated by the one piece and naruto Fandom for not really understanding what makes each of them not on the same level. OP being the same arc in a different way everytime and Naruto just not valuing the characters that made it an interesting series to begin with. Same with Dragon Ball, anything new is just a variation of what's already happened. So many Shonen do this, and Fandoms just eat that up like it's the greatest. When it's just a tired formula.
Jaymes Muir
2024-01-29 19:50:57 +0000 UTCHunter x Hunter is the greatest Shonen ever written and Togashi fully deserves to be as credited as Miura for the amount of love and commitment he has put into this. The big 3 and even their predecessor DragonBall, are no where close in terms of generally everything. Story/characters/abilities. YuYu Hakusho was beautiful. Hunter x Hunter, is a refined masterpiece. Even unfinished.

2024-01-29 19:41:34 +0000 UTC“Samurai Champloo” is the best show Shinichiro Watanabe has directed, with “Kids on the Slope” being his second best. Samurai Champloo also has the best OST in all of anime.
ChupaThingy
2024-01-20 20:25:43 +0000 UTCIt has been for a while, but the anime community's understanding of nuance and what "edgy" means has been going down. I still see people on social media praise shows like Elfen Lied for being a "masterpiece" for it's extreme violence and complex story/themes. In reality, it's just superficial depth that takes five seconds of thinking and unneeded shock when there's shows out there that outclass shows like this with the same factors. I still think they're fun watches, it's just a weird hill to die on.

Androo Gnoix
2024-01-20 03:04:22 +0000 UTCI genuinely think Part 1 is the best Jojo has ever been. I have watched/read Jojo Parts 1-7 but I just think Part 1 is on a whole different level. The character dynamics, story, and background behind Johnathan and Dio is so intriguing and unique and it was an amazing, classic, short story. It's up there with other classics like Banana Fish, Berserk, FOTNS, etc. I have mixed feelings about the rest of Jojo overall. Also Part 9 JOJOLands is just fucking wack...

2024-01-19 17:54:53 +0000 UTCLAIN SPOILERS FOLLOW Lain is not more relevant today. You say that every time it's mentioned (even when you mention it yourself, like it's part of the title), as if that's enough to make the show good, were it only true. The theme being anything related to online identity only arises from reading the text with modern eyes, projecting our culture on a work made before that culture existed, and then promptly ignoring what you see anyway. I'm not saying that's wrong, I think it's great that you like it, but it does not make the show any better in itself. In Lain, the world literally merges with some kind of neuro-internet, causing various inexplicable events to happen, partially because of Lain and her extremely high-end machine, but eventually it turns out to be the work of god. I don't feel like that's in any way reflective of social media to anyone not so terminally online they can't distinguish real from virtual. It also doesn't really talk about internet identities being different from real-world identities; Lain has some kind of alter-ego, but that Lain existed before she went online (Time-travel? Never mentioned.) and does things Lain seems to find disagreeable (but who can tell, really?), things Lain then has no recollection of. They are clearly portrayed as different people that eventually merge into one. At least my experience with the internet was never that I was surprised by what I'd said or done online, and I don't feel like I ever merged with my online alter-ego. Have you?

2024-01-18 10:08:27 +0000 UTCThe word "read", in past tense refers to having consumed any literary work, and as such, in present tense it describes any process to that effect. I'm saying the verb for audiobooks is "read", not "listen", in the same way it's not "look at" for normal books.

2024-01-18 10:02:46 +0000 UTCIs this opinion similar to golden, the remastered version?
Androo Gnoix
2024-01-17 16:07:40 +0000 UTCFor me personally as a HUGE Persona fan I feel like Persona 4 has aged pretty bad over the years compared to Persona 3 & 5. Don’t get me wrong there are some great memorable moments in this entry, however this game has a running gag where a beloved character who was introduced is constantly bullied throughout the entire game for possibly being bisexual by another particular character who was originally supposed to be a romantic choice for players however the developers decided to cut that for whatever reason because of the possible gay romance option.

2024-01-17 15:55:41 +0000 UTCI felt that Oshi No Ko was highly overrated. I thought the first episode was incredible… it subverted expectations, emotional, beautifully animated and set the tone. However, after the first episode, I felt that the tone switched too frequently between an interesting murder mystery/harsh reality of the idol industry, and the weird harem that starts to form or is at least implied. I don’t think any of Oshi no Ko is necessarily bad, I just felt the constant tone shifting really took me out of the immersion and it felt like the story didn’t know where it wanted to go. I dont know if this is a hot take or not, but I just feel everyone absolutely adored Oshi no Ko and I just felt like it had good moments, but the rest of it was pretty meh.

2024-01-17 15:09:46 +0000 UTCI'm tired of hearing that the ending to Attack on Titan was some sort of masterpiece. It tried to be the next Code Geass and instead it's dog shit and ruined a good show.
Joshua
2024-01-17 12:39:13 +0000 UTCいたずらなキス is the best rom com anime that has the best ending and terrebly underrated especially in the west... like the j-drama with 未来穂香 as kotoko
Alex Spat
2024-01-17 08:41:41 +0000 UTCEvery series adapted from shounen jump, in particular shounen weekly are over-rated. They can pretty much make up a genre by themselves. Im not saying they're bad but if you've watched/read at least 2-3 shounen series, you can tell theres a formula or elements that will always be there and it will tend to get predicable after awhile. Point being, they shouldnt be goated, they shouldnt be included in awards with other non-shounen series (or they should just be ranked in a separate category called shounen), and ppls shld keep expectations very high for these series and not try to hype it up even more. Also comparing them to other non-shounen series is like comparing Ferraris and Lambos to Toyotas and Hondas. The former will always make great super cars and the latter only make them occasionally

2024-01-17 07:59:56 +0000 UTCWhen it comes to gamer Supps I prefer the non caffeinated version over the caffeinated even though I don't feel or taste any different. What is your guys preference? What is your favorite flavor that gamer Supps makes, that includes mixing more than one flavor? Mine is misfits melon but I do like mixing flavors to try different combinations

2024-01-17 07:12:52 +0000 UTCThe term nostalgia is being over used to invalidate the qualities of older media over modern. I have much more fun playing games on my old ps2 or wii than most recent games, however everyone is quick to say "it's just the nostalgia"

2024-01-17 05:01:31 +0000 UTCAny anime with filler endings where it follows the source material to a certain point and then deviates away from it is just plain bad in general.

2024-01-17 02:16:57 +0000 UTCYour Name is Freaky Friday and Inception is Paprika, successful “remakes” (reimagining as T. Burton says). What can work as an anime, and what can work as a live action movie & your explanations for them? Some for me are Misery and Akira.

2024-01-17 01:51:50 +0000 UTCFate 2006 is the best version of Fate, UBW (2014) is also amazing, and Heaven's Feel is the worst story with animation carrying the movies hard.
Rage
2024-01-17 01:34:43 +0000 UTCThe anime of aku no hana is better than the manga, the artstyle in the anime makes me feel more depressed than reading the manga. Depression is obviously a good thing here
Lars Espen
2024-01-17 00:36:56 +0000 UTCPart of the reason I'm so jaded with anime/manga is how repetitive the stories get. I am so tired of the love stories, of the shonen protagonist that continously one ups themselves and get so overpowered that even Goku feels small beside them, of the 10,000 isekai. At this point most genres have been explored and those that haven't aren't given much attention. I seriously want a new sci-fi horror manga. If you have any reccomendations i'd appreaciate it.
DreamingCannibal
2024-01-17 00:08:56 +0000 UTCI think Devilman Crybaby is overrated at best and bad at worst. The animation is unique, yes, but it's the only good thing I can say is going for the series. The ending especially felt overly edgy, depressing, and overall pointless.

Stefan
2024-01-16 23:25:48 +0000 UTCThe original FMA is better than Brotherhood. The pacing is better and the characters are more fleshed out. The pacing also made any major plot events have more impact because it slowly crawled towards them, rather than rushing it and quickly moving on to the next one. Also, I preferred the bittersweet ending of the original over the cookiecutter "all's well that ends well" ending of the original. I will die on this hill.
A Big Crocodile
2024-01-16 23:10:35 +0000 UTCI don’t think the Fate series timeline is complicated and yes I’m a fgo player and maybe I have spent to much money on the game, if I had to take a guess maybe around $2000.
Perkinator117
2024-01-16 23:10:25 +0000 UTCWhite Album 2 (Not White Album Season 2) is an underrated drama/romance series that should get more attention. VN should too. While I do admit that it is very overdramatic, the show as a whole had incredible character writing and I couldn’t help but feel for the main cast, cause they felt real. 10/10 for me.
