And of course, I will never forget Reki

What's it like tone wise compared to Lane and Texhnolyze?


maybe I'm dumb but I'm not entirely sure what he's saying, miyazaki puts his female leads on pedestals? "Doesn't have confidence in himself as a man" is an odd way to phrase that.

he doesnt have confidence in himself, so he sees women as above him (and men in general.)

its pretty different, the only thing they have in common are yoshitoshi abe character designs, lain and texhnolyze were written by chiaki j konaka. frequent collaborator with abe and they have a lot in common but, the stuff that abe has written like haibane and niea_7, and the handful of doujins hes done that actually have stories, are slower and more contemplative

watching haibane renmei is like, having a long dream

Much less high-strung than those series. Haibane is dreamy, mysterious, and very bittersweet. I love it just as much as Lain, but for very different reasons because it elicits very different emotions.

I guess I'll ask this here. There's currently a traveling thread going through a bunch of different subforums (representing the Olympic torch that starts off the games), before landing in the Olympic subforum to start it off. Do any of you mind if we have it in ADTRW for a few hours?

i'm honestly sick of people putting certain influential/popular creators on a pedestal where they can do no wrong, and anyone other creator that criticizes them is given poo poo for it.

like no one gives miyazaki poo poo for saying stuff like he wouldn't mourn tezuka's death soon after he died, but people give tomino poo poo for saying he doesn't care for attack on titan and finds the artwork in it bad.

of course there's things you can criticize tomino for as well, but it's mostly people just being upset at tomino for not liking some popular works and calling him a crazy out of touch old man, not legitimate criticism.
