The best part of UBW isn't a high quality adaptation of a good thing, it's trying not to drink yourself into a stupor over the thread, each post worse than the last (including your own).

I for one cannot wait for something awful user Squidster's attempts to be anime Roger Ebert, Silver's inability to understand what a joke is, or my own inevitable poor decision to defend something about it. :suicide:


Also realtalk Richard Spacious, what's your beef with this franchise anyway?

From the depths I am summoned! Yeah, I'm watching UBW because I enjoy interesting flawed things.

Arslan might be cool, but I'll certainly give it a try for at least standing out from the rest of this season's offerings. I'll wait for the goon reaction to see if there's unexpected gems like Bahamut.

When people say they like My Love Story, they're talking about the manga. While I have high hopes for the anime, they could still gently caress it up, so until it's actually airing and confirmed great, I'm still going to just say "read the manga, is good"

The chance that Morio Asaka will gently caress it up is so incredibly slim that it basically doesn't exist.

Morio Asaka is the director of Chihayafuru, the Neon Genesis Evangelion of ADTRW.

I POSTED WHAT NOW!?
Pretty much anything Asaka has touched directorial wise has been gold, so it'd be weird to assume he wouldn't do good now. He directed CCS, the good Gunslinger Girls, NANA, and what's already been mentioned. He did do Chobits as well, which is a solid adaptation regardless of what you think of the material he was working with. That would be one of the only black marks on his record though and it's not a huge one.

90% of the cast is incredibly boring and nothing really interesting happens except for the waver/rider relationship and its conclusion

stay night is 'more anime' and has pacing issues but at least that gives the cast room to breathe and the story time to actually crack a goddamn smile once in a while

don't forget that Urobuchi managed to sneak in another one of his signature sexually charged "man brutally kills woman" scenes

At what point did "wow ufotable table shows always looks really good even on a tv budget" turn into "they use lots of digital effects to touch up budget saving scenes and frame their action sequences in a way that can get away with limited animation" and then into "ufotable can't actually animate".

I'm most excited for the Kyokai No Kanata movie, but Ninja Slayer is definitely going to be awesome and I'll give Hibike! Euphonium a shot. It's too bad about Triage X, because the premise sounds really cool, but I really hate fanservice shows.

Plastic Memories

This story takes place in a future not too far away when androids that look exactly like humans begin to spread across the world. The android production company SA Corp. produced Giftia, a new kind of android that has the most amount of emotion and human-like qualities out of any other model ever seen. However, due to problems in technology, the androids have a service life, and once they pass that, they... Well, it gets pretty bad. For this reason, SA Corp. creates a terminal service in order to retrieve Giftia that have gone past their service life. A new employee at the terminal service named Tsukasa Mizugaki forms a team with the Giftia Isla to retrieve the other androids, but...

At first glance, Arashi Mikami appears to be a normal, albeit socially awkward, 17-year-old high school student. He's actually part of a secret vigilante organization known as Black Label, a group dedicated to executing power-hungry criminals the law refuses to deal with; however, taking down a crime lord isn't always an easy task, and there are bound to be consequences for any action...

That sounds great and doesn't mention the fanservice stuff. I wish a plot like that wasn't wasted by being so trashy in execution.

Its probably going to be a fanservice anime for most of the show, but then at the very end have a sad ending so everybody talks about how deep their anime boob show is.

Trashiness is the point of Triage X and HSotD. They're T&A + Ultraviolence + a bit of nationalism/traditionalism, like an 80s OVA done with modern techniques and character archetypes.

90s/80s OVAs are awesome, though, or at least the ones I've seen. Never seen High School of the Dead but that's also disappointing to hear, since I heard some good things about it.
