I dunno, the vehicle looks fine actually. The CG shading is pretty consistent with how the characters themselves tend to look in the show anyway. CG is not always bad!

I...don't think so. The textures and especially the lighting looked pretty bad on the bus making it appear to be a few panels of CG slapped together. It didn't bother me because it was one of those scenes where a character uses a CG vehicle for 10 seconds, I can't really get worked up about such things.

 

[Dead]

But... but... someone told me any episode of Angel Beats was better than anything in Eureka 7! Did AnimeGaf lie to me?!

lol

Angel Beats is below the standards of the Soccer episode of E7

You haven't been on IRC recently?

I miss a lot of things. Just answer the question!

 

[Ultimadrago]

I'd be flabbergasted if Sengoku Collection came even close to selling as much as those shows.

Are you going to jinx this?

 

[zeroshiki]

Its in the topic of the channel! I can't get on IRC to copy the exact wording but its there! And I'm pretty sure you can guess who.

EDIT: ok Jex answered it. You could be kind to paste the whole thing too, Jex.

I'm not so evil that I'd actively hope for Brains Base to lose money just because they're making one bad show!

 

[Jarmel]

To be clear, I don't believe any of it at all and think Angel Beats is an abomination.

I would rank the Gekko pranking episode pretty low but that's really it. As to whether that particular episode is worse than an episode in AB? Depends on the episode.

 

[Ultimadrago]

zeroshiki knows that snitches get stitches.

 

[wonzo]

That's why there's 4 seasons of Natsume. I'm surprised there hasn't been more Durarara, considering how it's by far their best-selling show.

I'd be flabbergasted if Sengoku Collection came even close to selling as much as those shows.

It's so fucking bad that I'm sure Oatkus will buy it by the truckload

 

[Jex]

Once you're in the

friendzone, it's up to you to get out of it!

More 3DS shitty camera pics!

One of these things is not like the other.

(I'm STILL amazed at how fucking big the NISA boxes are).

Are those like, LaserDisc releases?

 

[cajunator]

As a fan of both shows, Angel Beats is better visually because- I got nothin'.

 

[madp]

I think we've found the NISA error for this release.

 

[trejo]

A_Black_Falcon.

That cad.

Say it, the characters look cuter. Eureka is like a very palid ghost.

I know we all like to bemoan how messed up anime sales are, but just because a show is bad doesn't mean otaku are going to buy it. Just look at Kill Me Baby from last season.

What's funny is I was there in real time when it happened, and I think that killed the convo because no one had any clue what to say to it.

 

[Jex]

Hahaha, it's probably not worth it. That said, the bonus features are kind of crazy for a release as dumb as this one. They even have the radio episode thing translated on the disc.

The camp value of the dub is pretty fun though. You can tell they're hamming it up as much as they can.

Well, the only thing Infinite Stratos was missing to enter to the god-tier level of bad anime was a bad dub. I am glad that they went that route.

 

[cajunator]

Are those like, LaserDisc releases?

No. they put two thinpacks side by dige and a thin artbook takes up the other half of the box. Its a really nice set altogether. I have about 7 of them.

 

[Lain]

I forgot to mention in the dedicated thread, but one thing disappointed me about AO 2. The lack of pink explosions. That homage in E7 gone from E7AO feels... weird.

 

[duckroll]

I can testify to the fact that it never became a discussion point, because... how do you respond to that?

 

[cajunator]

The music more than makes up for it though.

 

[jman2050]

Ironic that ABF would be the one to stop a conversation dead in its tracks

 

[Jex]

Hayate no Gotoku 44

Truer words where never said. This sounds like an inspirational show.

 

[cajunator]

Oh. Well, yeah. Eureka is [redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted]

That goes without saying. Nobody on Angel Beats approaches that.

 

[zeroshiki]

We think we've all become so desensitized by people saying weird stuff but the truly outrageous ones just leave us with mouths agape unable to muster a response.

 

[Jex]

Hito, what the hell man? We can't even show some skin and that pony thread is going fucking crazy?

My eyesssssssssssssss.

Why do you hate ponies so much?

 

[jman2050]

Oh. Well, yeah. Eureka is [redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted][redacted]

That goes without saying. Nobody on Angel Beats approaches that.

What about um... the white-haired nobody whats-her-name! Or Not-Haruhi! Or that pointless girl who died three episodes in. Or pink. Or---

Yeah I got nothing.

 

[wonzo]

I know we all like to bemoan how messed up anime sales are, but just because a show is bad doesn't mean otaku are going to buy it. Just look at Kill Me Baby from last season.

I don't think you can compare something as aggressively terrible as Sengoku Collection is to something as inoffensively dull and boring as Kill Me Baby was. They're two completely different things!

But Kill Me Baby was good... =(

Ponies are loli horses. It's repugnant.

This is so cute I could die.

Don't count that out. The only thing with trappar technological which we have seen actually explode so far is the car in ep1, and that was pink as hell. Nothing in the OP or in ep2 has trappar tech, so it makes sense that there are no pink explosions right now.

 

[Jarmel]

I'll give you cuter but they definitely don't look cooler.

Also Wings Eureka disagress with your statement.

The only cute girls in Angel Beats are Not-Haruhi and pink haired singer from Girls Dead Monster.

 

[Dead]

The sheer idea of mentioning angel beats designs in the same post as E7 makes me want to punch my dick into nothingness

 

[Jex]

Didn't watch Wandering Son, I assume?

Apparently it's hard to be a classy anime without jazz.

 

[Crash Station]

Kore wa zombie desu ka of the dead 3

I think it's time for some butt love!

There were like 8 things that cracked me up in this episode. I even had to pause when

Spoiler

Eu gave the swan potty to Haruna

because I was laughing so much. Might be the most hilarious episode in the series so far. I knew this was going to be special when the pre-op scene was about the philosophy of Ayumu's ass.

I really loved the facial expressions too. They were pretty amazing. This one in particular had me chuckling:

Oh, and since I know how much animegaf loves CG, here's some PS1 era CG audience!

By the way, can someone gif the scene with Ayumu break dancing?

 

[Ultimadrago]

Bad art.

Seriously.

 

[trejo]

This current comparison is awful beyond description.

Please stop.

This would make an amazing Liveleak video.

I don't know, some of the E7 girls are hot. Especially Talho while

.

Wings Eureka is like an insect. That's not even a furry, that's worse.

 

[duckroll]

This would make an amazing Liveleak video.

Don't encourage him. In his fragile state of mind now, he might actually do it! It's all ABF's fault!

 

[cajunator]

Also, E7 and Angel Beats both have some cute designs, so the argument is moot. But E7 still wins because I have deemed it to be better.

 

[madp]

Wings Eureka is like an insect. That's not even a furry, that's worse.

She's more like a goo girl. Those wings look squishy!

What does it do? That would depend on how cute it is.

They had pink explosions in Gundam too
Whats the deal with that anyway?

 

[Branduil]

Mutilating your genitalia is probably more fun than watching Angel Beats, really.

Well, how many people remember being circumcised? On the other hand, I can never forget Angel Beats. It will haunt me forever.
