It's weird that the Giant Robo/Berserk movies guy is directing a beach volleyball anime, right? That seems weird to me.

He's also the character designer for The Idolmaster

Laid-back Camp is the better show overall but doesn't have anything that matches EoC's Fuji arc

You've learned everything food anime has to teach. Now you must make your own.

I've done that, but no one on earth can make fried chicken that looks as delicious as anime fried chicken

And food anime can't end until we get a Delicious in Dungeon anime

Hopefully it's a new thing that uses the themes and imagery from Gundam but goes in it's own direction.

Synergy with a show that aired at midnight and was cancelled halfway through and never aired again?

If it is an adaptation it'll be so loose it'll be clearly it's own thing, like the original Godzilla and the American Godzilla. And Gundam already has plenty of that, they're called AUs.

Out of an overabundance of caution, I've added some spoiler tags. It's... sort of a lifeless pitch without that twist and motivation, though.

One of the things that makes Mizukami hard to pitch is how much he works with existing tropes -- his work can sound generic until you get to the part where his work becomes a commentary on those tropes. I've tried recommending Planet With to some friends, but most folks will stop listening after you mention 'amnesiac transfer student with mysterious power plus aliens'. You have to include 'but he's there to fight heroes!' before it becomes compelling. Spoilers, I guess.

You could talk about, like, emotions. You could say that all the characters have their own really clear personalities and stories that come through really strongly

I remember when AOT was first blowing up I went for months assuming it was some mecha anime set on the moons of Saturn

When I first heard about it I askes what it was and the guy said, "I haven't read it but I think it's like 'what if everyone was the Hulk'"

I'm still kinda disappointed that it's wasn't that.

It is completely possible that the anime removes all the rape references and turns Goblin Slayer into a passable non-Isekai fantasy series.


I'm not sure how likely that is, but it's not impossible!

It's really just the manga that's that bad. In the novel, it mostly happens offscreen or is described as "unspeakable things" being done without getting into details.

The manga makes it worse? I read the novel and yeah there's several euphemistic references to rape, which is why I was saying there was a chance the anime could do better. Just cut out those internal monologues and you're good. But if the manga goes the other direction that probably doesn't bode well for the anime

I watched the first episode of SAO and it seemed like pure wish fulfillment about a guy whose really good video games so he becomes the best person when everyone gets locked in a video game. Does it actually get good? Should I have given it more of a chance?
