Persona 4: The Animation - 11://Being Yukiko's obsessed stalker may be hazardous to your health
Well, okay. They had to cover some stuff that was plot development in the game, so they pretty much did. Mitsuo gets some bonus screen time, which is fine as his role in the game was somewhat vague to begin with. Bishie Teddie appears for the first time. New girl Aika serves up the beef bowl challenge because you know they had to fit it in somewhere because of how awesome it was in the game.
Rise is <3
edit: When the hell did :cajun get his new tag?

Well, I tried the app on the Tuna, it's a no-go. It goes to the screen which says GIVE US MONEY when I poke an episode in the list but there's no button to continue to start the stream. Well, I don't watch anime on a 4" phone screen anyways, so whatever.

This was somewhat dull at first but Nurse Minene was totally worth it.
edit: Speaking of Oshii, I was thinking of checkout out Beautiful Dreamer but I'm not sure if should watch it before I've seen the TV series. Is it okay to watch as a standalone thing?

The only live-action Oshii film I've seen was Avalon and that was terrible.
bitch, please.

Where would the 300 million dollars even go? It doesn't matter which "studio" gets the money, it's going to end up in some people's pockets anyway, and these pockets will have nothing to do with the quality of the animation or the production at large. It's a completely ridiculous concept.

Animators? Rent? Marketing budget? I was thinking more budget would mean higher production values, which would ideally mean more quality.
urge to watch angel's egg rapidly decliningOf course, wonzo, if you end up not liking Beautiful Dreamer, please refer to the last row of the chart.
ofc this is totally inaccurate because Angel's Egg has no basset hounds in it.

Fixed!
A broad attempt does call for a bigger budget, yeah, but throwing money at an issue rarely correlates with quality. If that was the case Sakaguchi would still be at SE.

It would be an improvement if more japan studios could use CG for more than a cheaply way to save some money (ugly CG-cars and stuff).
The Shinkai team is a good example for good using of CG stuff.
The Taisei commercial:

The little 3D CG making of:

This is pretty impressive, especially for me as a hardcore anti-CG person.

Brains Base and a remake of Violinist of Hameln.
This is good too.
Now stop breaking character!
I also hate whistle moe.
Thankfully that episode was devoid of whistling, so it's all cool.
The reality is that the most expensive anime production of all time and in all possible reality in terms of just production values will probably be unable to exceed 50 million dollars. There is ultimately a limit to what you can do with the money. So you'll end up spending 250 million dollars on marketing I guess... Actually even that would be hard in Japan. There's a limit to how much you can advertise, and even if you go all out and buy a ton of TV spots at prime time, put up trailers in cinemas, buy billboards in all major locations and subways.... you would probably still have a shitload of money left over.
Oh and why would any of this make the show any better? Lol.
Edit: No actually I just thought of how you can make an anime with 300 million dollars. You can start by spending 50 million to make the actual anime. Then you cast Will Smith in the lead role, and Brad Pitt as the second lead. That should easily piss away another 50 million dollars. Then you can spend 100 million marketing the show. With the remaining money, you can probably get Hollywood composers on board, and maybe get a major pop star like Lady Gaga to sing the theme song, and spend the rest on Hollywood talent for the remaining supporting cast as well.

To inflate production costs in order to justify even more outrageous budgets from the studio in the future?

:firehawk. To be expected with this sort of episode, and enjoyable enough. I simply adore Kyoko, and not even in a "moe~~" way, but more of a "Haha! This is an interesting person" way. It's a good testament to the show that it can get across all this stuff without exploiting the "sexy" angle. This right here is good, honest, wholesome moe.
But there's only two more episodes, so I'm not expecting anything even slightly resembling resolution to the romantic tension that's been steadily running in the background since the start of the show. The weirdest part is, I don't think it would break the whole wholesome thing they have going. Oh well... fucking second season ruining everything...

maybe you could take some of that $300 million and give it to Madhouse to finish The Dream Machine . . .
Even if you gave Madhouse 300 million dollars now, they would not use it to finish Dream Machine.
Ok that looks beautiful, the anti cg in me can't even tell where the cg is.
Am tempted to watch a shinkai movie, despite the warnings signs my brain gives me.

So many moe emotions running. There was :cajun~, there was HNNNNNNNNNG, there was :firehawk, hell, there was even a bit of GAR in there. Such drama, such passion, such a brilliantly executed cliche, and brilliant punchline to the show, with crazed-eyed Akarin~. I know about jack shit is gonna get resolved, but if they can pull off something as glorious as this episode, then I don't care. Bring on Season 2! >

You know that last 35 minutes of Tokikake you hate?
Imagine an entire movie like that.
That's 5 centimeters per second.
I'll give it to gonzo to remake Gatekeepers,retcon the novel and 21. And a Vandread 3rd stage.
Eh, I don't know 11 was pretty glorious. That said...
YuruYuri 12
Yeah, just as I expected, almost zero resolution of romantic tension. *sigh* Oh well, no use dwelling. It was a pretty good episode. Oh so very :cajun~, especially Yui in the panda PJs, and the fujioshi going
kiss-crazy upon the consumption of chocolate like she just dropped ecstasy
And poor Akari, such a buttmonkey. I will never forget her sacrifice! BRING ON SEASON 2!
I really, really, really want at least SOME relief of that romantic tension...
Manga ending for episode 11 went in a rather different direction.YuruYuri 11

. . .
damnit...
Well, you gotta tell me, is the whole manga like this show? Toying with my emotions and then having awesome moments to distract me while they lack any sort of yuri?
Urotsukidōji reboot with Amano returning to score it. Pure hotness.
I think a Penguin Drum film remake could be quite interesting. Axe Tabuki, Yuri and Masako; change Ringo's early actions
, and focus more intently on the Takakuras and Sanetoshi, and you could cut it down to a couple of hours easily.
It wouldn't be as rich an experience but I'm sure Ikuni could come up with something entertaining on that basis.
she can still be trying to be Momoka, just not trying to sleep with Tabuki
