Females only have a couple things that distinguish them from males. Anything personality wise can be easily implanted into a male character and thus brings it down on the importance scale. A guy can also have a nice booty, legs, neck, hair, face, etc. What they don't have are oppai (moobs do not count). Therefore, oppai are the one true defining factor unless you want to raise the creepiness bar.

While I think both of you are being a bit crazy the setting of a story does influence ones enjoyment of it. Shouldn't just disregard it completely.
Who is saying to disregard it completely...? The issue is him disregarding everything else, other than setting.

i don't understand how Sent doesn't understand that simple fact.

think about this can you imagine yourself watching a non-mecha anime even if they have the same pacing and story ?
LMFAO holy shit sent you actually say funny stuff sometimes
Sent there's is no reason to follow a tale if actually don't care about the story and the setting that's just crazy why are you even following a tale.if you actually don't care about both. Anyways i already explained my reasons that people actually possibly like have other reasons for liking something that is actually not the same as you do. If you still can't understand that i already done my part explaining it to you.
And now comes the Strawman. Where the hell did I say an anime's story didn't matter? Where did I say setting was irrelevant? I'll give you a hint: no where. I mean hell, this entire thing has been about you praising one thing (Arslan), and then dropping LOGH despite it practically being the same thing, with just cosmetic differences.
And as for your retarded question of "can you imagine yourself watching a non-mecha anime even if they have the same pacing and story", the answer is yes, all the fucking time. The idea that you think this is some clever "gotcha!" question is beyond me. Would you like me to bombard you with examples? Because I can name a whole ass load of non-mecha anime that could easily have been otherwise without changing anything major.
are you trolling or something you imply something but you don't mean it ?
ok i give up you don't understand shit actually .. it seems like you have this idea that no one could possibly have different reasons for liking something than you do

Please, show me where I said or implied that story doesn't matter. Please. Should be easy, right? Your insistence that I can't understand that you don't like something is hilarious as well. I understand that your reasons for liking things apparently are grossly shallow and superficial, and that you have the inability to look at anime beyond how it looks cosmetically.
Sigh it looks like you still don't understand shit actually you are literally pointing out different reason. No you don't understand my reasons for sure my reasons are very obvious i spelled it out for you many and tried to use different analogies for but you still go and refuse to understand and still stand "nope you should have the same reason as me or else it will ever make sense to me" .
How is it hard to understand that i prefer watching LOTR than starwars ? yes both have different stories and are very simple examples but at this point if you still can't understand i'm done explaining
I'm also sure at this point you are just baiting me into saying something out of hand so that i get banned or warned. You do that alot.

And you were implying ? pretty sure you are implying that the setting means nothing at all here and i could just imagine it but if i'll just imagine it what's the point even watching anime ? i could just daydream or write about it if that was the case
The staff also announced that the anime will be a 6-part film series, with the first film titled "Saikai" (Reunion) premiering on November 21. The anime was first announced to be a "sequel anime series" premiering in spring.
this is gonna take soooo long to release and i was pretty excited to watch this
Contributing to the Sent-Goody-War-2015, I think the setting matters a lot and you can't just simply change horses with space ships and get the same flair. I know from my personal experience that I just couldn't bring myself to complete post-apocalyptic games like Fallout or Wasteland but really liked playing IE medieval fantasy games like Icewind Dale, PST, Baldur's Gate etc. while mechanically them being very very similar. I also, by comparing the first episodes of LoGH with the first episodes of Arslan, don't see how those two are as similar as Sent makes them to be. Sure there are some similarities but there are also a lot of differences like the narrative perspective, set up of the different parties, development of the story, handling of the character interaction, general setting...
I can totally see someone liking one but liking the other. That being said, I think it's way too early to compare the two shows. I havn't read the LN (and haven't seen enough of LoGH), so they can pretty much become much more similar in the future. They are also both story and development heavy shows with a slow start so judging them only makes sense after a certain amount of time. I mean you wouldn't. judge a 1000 page novel after 50 pages, right (besides maybe the style of writing)? I also think goody should do himself a favour and stop arguing against Sent as he is pretty much predetermined to not cut his way out of it.
no lol its screenshot from the youtube video oh sorry i changed my link didnt i
probably the time it took for him to draw that was the time it took for me to change her hair color and background
i cud draw dat but im gonna learn fundementals first like ....everything else itll be a while before i learn to draw faces (and longer before i learn to colour) or maybe sooner than that if i close my dota after 1 game like now lol
