Hyped for Eupho, might check out IBO - though I still need to watch season 1 of that.

What's good about Haikyuu? All I know about it is that it's a Volleyball show and that people like its OPs.

I have never heard about Flip Flappers until this thread - what's its deal? Why might I want to take a look?

So, "surreal, potentially gay, vaguely defined magical girl adventure" is what I'm getting out of the PV and the summary, I guess. Eh, sure, I'll give it a shot.

The Colonel posted:the director for flip flappers mostly done key animation before now, but he has credits for working on a ton of shows including an episode of gurren lagann (not episode 4), animation director for five episodes of dennou coil, and key animation for a letter to momo, the wind rises and evangelion 2.0. he also directed the episode of space dandy s2 where dandy gets stranded in a fishing village and befriends a little girl, where iirc he apparently did a ton of work on animating it himself Mm. Sounds pretty promising. I'll definitely give FF a look, then.

I assume Eupho 2 will be coming to Crunchy - what about Flip Flappers? Having a hard time finding out for sure.

Regardless of how GiTS turns out, it makes me think - has there ever been a hollywood adaptation of an anime that turned out any good? The only other thing I can even think of that's been adapted was DBZ, and, uh...

Yeah, the obvious main challenge in a hollywood anime adaptation is the simple fact that anime is a niche interest, particularly in the west, and niche products simply aren't often going to get the budget they need to bring on the kind of talent required to handle the challenges involved in adapting a TV show into a movie - even without the difference in art style.

Xinder posted:I never expected superhero movies to take off the way they did, but look at Marvel now. Yeah, Anime movies totally could become a thing, it's just going to have to meet the same challenge that comics did and have someone make a really loving good movie out of what probably won't be the easiest set of building blocks. I'd kind of like to see someone try Gundam, someday.

chumbler posted:I would hope they don't Hollywood up the action scenes and make them colorless, too loud, and difficult to track. But I'm mostly just worried that this hypothetical gundam movie would go to Michael Bay. That would be the tragedy. Although it would be morbidly, tragically funny to see Tomino react to a Michael Bay Gundam movie.

Last Witch at glance kinda looks like a more straight faced and maybe more romantic Strike Witches. I'd be down for that.

In Training posted:That's not really uncommon, even with a short series that tells a single overarching narrative like Madoka, each episode is still structured with narrative peaks and valleys and is edited to match the shorter run time. It's easier to enjoy a bunch of short films than it is to sit down and examine something for 2+ hours Yeah. Compare any individual episode of Haruhi to, like, any of the middle 90 minutes of Disappearance.

I'm rather looking forward to checking out Izetta today. Also, should I be starting to assume that Eupho S2 and Flip Flappers aren't coming to crunchyroll, or is it normal for the announcement to be later than this?

...Idle question, but has there been more homoeroticism flying around than usual this year, or am I just paying more attention? Just this year we've had Amanchu, Tanaka-kun, New Game, and I feel like there's something else I'm missing - with Izetta kicking off today, plus Eupho and Yuri!!! still to come.

I'm rediscovering that waiting a week between episodes sucks way more when you're watching a drama than a comedy or romance. I really want to know how Izetta turns out.
