Am I missing something or does that not make any sense?

I meant that i liked the quality of the animation but kaze said that it' typical for PA works to have that kind of quality animation. So i guess it would become irrelevant. Hope i made sense now.

What does one thing have to do with the other? Why would the animation quality in their other shows make the animation quality in Glasslip irrelevant?

CG is cheap. They sure as hell aren't going to animate 20 mechs onscreen if they can get away with it~

And I dunno about interesting when they haven't actually done anything yet (and likely won't for another 1-2 eps). At the very least, the side chars seem ok.

Unfortunately, CG is the new norm for mecha stuff. Unless its made by Sunrise. And CG being the norm is also tragic, since the only studio that can do CG well is Orange. MJP s2 when?

Even Origin is CG

And yeah, MJP was the best mecha CG ever.

Finished GitS Arise 3. It was ok again.

I feel like the Major is way too human in this series. She fucks up far too often, gives into emotion a lot, and broods over a bunch of shit.

Conversely, Togusa is very much like his SAC self. He was definitely the highlight of this ep.

As for the plot, it was meh. The twists were pretty predictable, and they didn't even discuss any interesting topics. Even ep 1 and 2 had something going for it. I also didn't appreciate the not so subtle hint at the next antagonist.

Meh I'm dling it now. I'll still watch it because I love GitS but it's a bit disappointing that this series wasn't really up to GitS standards.

from irc:
[21:17:57] <Toad|> what do you recommend to someone who hates deathnote, hates snk, loves Elfenlied and liked korezom
[21:18:01] <Toad|> I don't see a pattern there
[21:18:24] <Toad|> and yes, that's all I know


any ideas? What else I know about him:
  • I gave him NGNL because he actually liked korezom which is something I rec'ed him for shitz and giggles earlier and well, NGNL is comedy / fantasy harem as well that doesn't take itself serious. But he instantly dropped NGNL,
  • Eca said I should try nyaruko but I don't think he'd like that at all. He said he doesn't like brainless shows, whatever that means comming from someone who liked korezom even if just a little.
  • I have never watched Elfenlied and I have heard it's a bit bloody and a bunch of tits but can't really tell if that's just exaggeration so I can't compare it to something else.
  • He absolutely hates "stupid" characters. His main criticism about deathnote and SNK is that in the first one the MC just doesn't get his shit together and acts like a whiney little bitch instead of just getting over it and kind of the same for SnK + the fact that the guy is just awful. Another non-anime example: He hates Sansa from GoT despite it making sense for Sansa to be a little dipshit because she's just supposed to be that, at least early on. So something like Madoka isn't an option either just because of Madoka.
  • Oh and he liked Evangelion

Any ideas? I'm open for suggestions. I'm thinking Steins;Gate right now because it's famous and can't really make anything out of the above but nothing else I can think of. I don't think he's watching stuff from Mecha-genre.

idk man other stuff I'm hearing right now:

  • He hates Naruto
  • OnePiece was "meh"
  • he hates emotionless girls à la mikasa from SnK
  • he hates completly overexcited MC's à la SnK


Edit: the reason he liked Evangelion apparently is because that show was "brainfuck" and because of a scene including mind-rape and the like. I instantly linked him toothbrush rape from Nisemonogatari but he has no youtube account and I couldn't find one that isn't tagged 18+ on youtube

yes, I loved Sidonia's animation as well after I got over how the characters were animated (felt a bit odd but ok otherwise).

LOL. ya, I finished 3 days back. Terra e in under 2 days, maybe 36 hours or so. Not that much considering it's only 24 episodes lol. You just gotta make time to watch it then! :D Did help that we had Canada Day as well so I had more time :D

maybe you should just chose a random anime from the list above and just give it to them. See what his reaction is lol.

This might be wrong, but you could try brynhildr since it's the same guy that did elfenlied.

I donno if i can rec anything for this guy b/c he doesn't understand the true brilliance that goes behind Sansa's growth throughout GoT. :/ I mean sure she's stupid and naive to start off, but she's like 14 at the beginning of GoT she's supposed to be that way. The true depth of her character are the trials she goes through in Kings landing and the growth and wisdom she gains through that and is only now beginning to show.

I donno steins;gate might be ok for him.
also possibly deadman wonderland (but that also has a whiny MC that takes a while to get his shit together :/ )
BW. There will always be a special place in my heart for the game I spent 10 years to be mediocre at.

That's pretty much my approach and the reason for saying I'll try out Steins;Gate on him. I'm pretty certain he won't like Madoka, he doesn't like Naruto/One Piece, he probably won't like Fairy Tail. I don't think he's made for sports anime with that "no overexcited kid pls" statement and I can't really recommend TTGL with the other stuff he said but want to stay in the casual area. So Steins;Gate by process of elimination so far

How did the girl fall on him and he ended up on top of her? I fear that this is only the first to come. Hopefully Jun Fukuyuma can carry this

Maybe something like Uchuu Senkan Yamato 2199, Mushishi, or Great Teacher Onizuka?

Hard to pinpoint a slam-dunk recommendation given what he has told us of his previous experiences lol. I mean 90% of all anime series have the male lead start off as either whiny/naive or full of angst and emotion. Although most of the female leads are not usually the stoic type, most anime feel the need to have at least one major/supporting character that fulfills that role for people that do like the "emotionless girl". Actually I don't know why he is still interested in anime, given all he has listed consists of mainstream anime that is known to be plagued with the very things he hates.

He also loved Elfen Lied, which I thought was complete garbage, so there is that.

He also loved Elfen Lied, which I thought was complete garbage, so there is that.

I made it very clear that I haven't watched Elfen Lied myself because I heard it was garbage myself

And the point about the stuff being mainstream: He has no idea about anime but liked some stuff and asked me to just recommend some stuff and I told him that I'm having real troubles pinpointing what he might or might not like because like you said... the whiny little dipshit MC is just so common and at the same time he said he liked Evangelion. I get that the MC is SnK is super annoying but if you drop the show after the first episode solely because of the MC and how it makes no sense that he kicks a guard in the shin and gets away with it without getting a beating... he's going to have a hard time with anime I think.
About it being mainstream anime... well that's going to happen if you have watched like 5 animes total

The funny thing about the kuudere thing is that according to him kuudere is the most used "setting" for females in anime that it just annoys him because they're so overused. He doesn't seem to have a problem with tsundere's. And yes, I'm a little lost at why he still wants anime recommendations as well, I kind of stopped because I couldn't see a pattern at all but he just recently told me to give him a bunch and he'll just go through it and see what he likes

So far my reclist for tomorrow for him is:
1) Deadman Wonderland (I think that'd really fit and thanks for that suggestion!)
2) Mushishi
3 Nyaruko because he said he likes "brainfuck" and I'm sure that's not the kind of brainfuck he meant because he was talking about Evangelion but whatever, he did like korezom after all
4) Ergo Proxy (because ZNF said so)
