But we don't want to see the studio doomed, we want to see them animate stuff with an actual humane production schedule that lets them put out better quality without killing themselves or missing deadlines. (And the same for every other studio for that matter.)

Endorph posted:i dont know how this is his fault, and this isn't really a director's job, but im gonna blame him cause hes a man whos name i saw once. impeccable logic. Oh, so you’ll stop blaming Katsura Hoshino for every single problem with the Persona franchise because he only directed those games, right? The writing in them isn’t really a directors job, but he’s only a man who’s name you saw once so he couldn’t possibly be the problem?

If nobody's failing, it works because capitalism. If there's a studio that demonstrably sank itself through these exact same measures, there's at least a non-zero chance of others pivoting a little just to avoid getting media and investment perception as being another Studio [Insert Name Here]. I'm not cheering a studio's demise either, but if one does sink itself it might make a big enough mess that it can't be ignored and do some good elsewhere at-large.

negative examples don't mean poo poo during a boom. there will be more and more anime pumped out to the absolute limit of what the actual people making it can handle and beyond until the bubble bursts and it stops being quite so profitable. that's when you instead get the fun of layoffs. blah blah blah, capitalism.

It's clear however that working at this studio is not a good job as they have consistently put out garbage work and have missed deadlines.

I like Persona but I'm going to make the bold claim that there's probably a big difference between a game director and an anime director

You know what? I don’t care about getting into some weird argument war about this because it doesn’t matter. Do I think Shin Itagaki shares in the blame on what happens in those shows? He’s a director, so yes. If you want to claim he doesn’t have anything to do with it, by all means point out what a series directors responsibilities are because all the media and online material I’ve read have shown they have a hand in it. I’ll apologize about the Katsura Hoshino thing because I thought you were one of those people who blamed all the series problems on him. If you weren’t, I’m sorry. That’s an honest mistake on my part. However I think you’re being really weird and aggressive about me going “this guy is involved in bad productions” despite me repeatedly claiming he’s not entirely responsible multiple times. Arist posted:I like Persona but I'm going to make the bold claim that there's probably a big difference between a game director and an anime director They’re not a 100% analogue, no. However, the comparison is that people assign blame to a director for things because they’re the one at the top who you know, directs the production. It’s the same with movies. So I find it weird when I go “hey this person who is near the top of a production is always in a troubled production” someone has some gigantic issues with it. Which at this point, whatever. If they want to have an issue with it, that’s fine. The Black Stones fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Jun 26, 2021 |

i'm invoking the maken x another clause, that maken x gets to count in this discussion and nocturne doesn't because maken x got a hayashida q manga i think atlus should do a push for a revival of maken x, with maken x hd and a cg anime adaptation of maken x another directed by shin itagaki

The assets and lighting look vaguely SMT:Nocturne-esque, and I wonder if it's a reaaaaal early iteration of the engine the PS2 SMT games ran on given the PS2 port.

If you told me at the start of the year that Umamusume would be the better sequel series than Gridman and ZLS I would of laughed but here we are and it's true. Not that I hated them but both really didn't match the level of what the first series was for them

So the last episode of Slime Taoshite 300-nen etc. was a pleasant end to the series, and if another season comes around I will be happy to watch it. There's a number spin-off novels/manga as well, so I'll have to keep an eye open for all of them.

The end of the last episode of TWEWY finally tried to have some proper pacing. Came in way too late, but I enjoyed the bit of fan service. Shame that they didn't try to go beyond an advertisement for the new game. It wasn't very good overall, the fights were particularly bad.

I haven’t watched the last ep of 86 but very surprised it’s a split cour. Very surprised there’s even a last episode tbh but I guess you can do anything you want.

86 is okay, at best. It's a slow burn. It makes the decision to chop and splice scenes so you see events from multiple angles, but the pacing and timing isn't quite there. Some of the dramatic emotional beats don't land. Intellectually the setting doesn't make sense from any kind of historical materialist perspective. But the final few episodes, when the scenes are allowed to really breath and characters unwind, are excellent.

I'm really not sure if it makes sense to try to critique an anime based on how its historical set dressing doesn't quite match a specific set of circumstances that you're aware of. People can subjectively decide whether a particular show works for them but that's a weird hang up to have.

When they say that the first season tackles the first volume as a whole, is it just this chunk or does this include the 2nd cour when it restarts in October as well?
