All I know is that with my lovely computer, the amount of typesetting Commie did to put their new title card in the OP crashed my player. I didn't like what GG did with Jojo, but I'll give them a try next week. By the way, show was fantastic and I'm torn between going ahead and reading the manga or keeping myself virgin for the anime.

Eggn0g posted:GG outright said they where being silly with Jojo, so don't let that put you off. Yeah, I find them fine other than what they did with Jojo. Translations should really be judged on a case-by-case basis anyway. It's an art, not a science.

Considering that the walls were built a hundred years ago, I doubt many people are alive that lived through the appearance of the Titans.

Giggily posted:I actually really like the character designs that they've released so far. This isn't spoilers since it's more or less promotional material, but when our protagonists join the military they have a unisex uniform and it turns out that Misaka is loving ripped. It's such a wonderful change of pace. To be fair, you also see them in uniform in the opening. It doesn't seem like spoilers more than the actual premise of the series.

Cake Attack posted:It's working for me, so it seems like it's legitimate. Does Funimation normally put out Blu-rays for any shows they stream, or are some shows streaming only? I mean, it's popular enough that I imagine it's a non-issue, but still. Well, there are some shows they stream that they haven't released a disc version of yet, such as Fujiko.

I think it's just that licensing in more regions costs more money. And obviously, some region restriction has to be put in place so the Japanese consumer base isn't able to watch it for free and has to buy the blu-rays.

ShardPhoenix posted:They could try to force the whole world to buy the blu-rays but they've obviously decided that won't work for America so I don't know why they apparently think it will work for Australia (or else they just misjudged how much they could charge for this region). I think America is prioritized both because these sites are usually based in America and America is one of the biggest markets for anime outside of Japan.

Smornstein posted:Alright i just finished the first episode and i was wondering if anyone could answer a few lingering questions i had. Which is how big is the city exactly since Eren's dad said that he would be gone for three to four days and that he'd be going by boat? Also i assume that there are more cities than the one that Eren was living in since not only did they mention going "inland" but that, i believe, the king outlawed openly believing that humanity should live beyond the wall. Watch the second episode.

Yeah, as was said earlier in the thread, a lot of times, that's just how anime works. Sometimes it really IS meant to be a companion to the source material.

Darth Walrus posted:Honestly, that's actually true. Fanworks tend to be created to fill a gap the existing work doesn't cater for, so the grimdarkiest shows get the most cheery, light-hearted fanworks and vice versa. Just look at all the horrible poo poo that's cropped up around My Little Pony... or don't, if you value your sanity. And a lot of it is just the humor present in such stark thematic dissonance.

Bremen posted:Anime only endings aren't always terrible. There was also Trigun. And... uh... I'm sure something will come to me. It's not necessarily an anime-only ending, but I'm glad the Golden Boy OVA ended where it did. From what I hear, the manga after that point was less funny and more just porn.

The Lord of Hats posted:Also, going to second the recommendation to not break down and read the manga. The manga is good, mind you, but the art is definitely rough, and the presentation of the anime is so well done that you'd really be missing out. I'll try as long as I can, but by the end of the month, I'll be back home for the summer and the house is on a bandwidth cap that'll keep me from streaming or downloading video, so it's either 2-3 months until I come back on campus to catch up on the anime or just read the manga.

The most flawless character is obviously Sasha. Any flaws you can point out will only serve to make her greater. Sasha will be the new main character.

Popo posted:I don't get that many anime series on DVD but I can't think of cases where major production errors were carried over into the home release. Minor off model characters, maybe, but never anything dramatic. Do you have any examples? Well, it's not exactly what you're asking for, but I remember when Musashi Gundoh was released on DVD, it got a whole bunch of fixes, except that by then, anyone who was watching Musashi Gundoh was watching it BECAUSE it looked like poo poo, and I think they rereleased it with the TV version.
