We're talking Miyazaki-level mainstream right? Ask people outside the anime fandom if they've even heard of Summer Wars or Wolf Children.

Anyways, this was really fun to watch. I sure do love attractive anime. I'm very glad and pleased that this is the only magical girl anime I've even bothered to give the light of day (that has come out) in the past how-so-many odd years.
Finally, (nsfw?) what the heck is this, Trigger? Deducted points, that's what.
Take a chill pill, lame-o Ms. Salty.

I wasn't talking about the content, just saying it looked like every other CGI feature film being made these days.
Hosoda is pretty mainstream as far as animation goes. It's interesting to note that both Summer Wars and Wolf Children's theatrical premieres in the US are actually filled with kids, and not "anime fans". You should watch/listen to the Q&A sessions with Hosoda at those events. The audience is basically what you expect for a normal animated feature in America.
In Japan Hosoda is totally mainstream. He has won the best animated film award from the Japanese Academy for all 3 of this feature films starting with Tokikake. The award basically bounces between him and Ghibli year after year.
Yeah, they have.
Hahaha! So for the longest time, I thought Becky's transformation scene in Dog Days' was done by Yoshinari You, and because of that I had no idea what to expect from LWA. To be honest, I was actually kinda scared. Today, I looked up the scene again and it was actually done by Yoshinari KOU! Hahahaha, haha ha.

TRIGGER making classy non-pandering animu. They are our only savior.
The movies are super fucking popular with normal people in their native country.

That subtraction of lewdity better have been replaced with more lewdity from the animal girls. Seven Arcs, you disappoint me sometimes.
It's a festival release, but his movies open at the New York Children's Film Festival as opposed to some anime event or art critic festival. It's targeting a very different crowd.

After a long trip home, Happy Easter!
It's hard to draw straight on the open road.
But I don't want him to become a lazy and self-content director who makes a string a highly successful but creatively bankrupt films in his old age!

Still not Miyazaki level. You need an actual national theatrical release for that.

This explains the last ten minutes of Little Witch Academia.
I still haven't watched it yet. Don't scare me!
The discussion was about contention for the title, not replacing him. Hosoda is definitely in a position to achieve that sort of success in the next decade. Yoshinari is still an otaku animator who is only known by anime fans. That was the point!

I meant that as a positive.

What's really sad is that all you jerks are gonna forget about LWA when voting for AotY 2013, just like you did with Wasurenagumo.

Funny enough, it was your avatar that gave me the idea.

You can count on my vote.

No. Little Witch Academia is intangibly better than Wasurenagumo.What's really sad is that all you jerks are gonna forget about LWA when voting for AotY 2013, just like you did with Wasurenagumo.

I will vote for Death Billiards, because it has a story I actually find interesting.

Not gonna lie, I'm getting a bit addicted to this show. The current rhythm of the episodes is just perfect.
Legend of the Galactic Heroes - 32: A Battle Without Weapons
~ You could even call it a greenhouse for raising a dictator. ~

And we're on the cusp of the Imperial invasion!
With the Alliance forces handicapped by missing their star Admiral, it is clear they are in a bit of a pinch.
The restaurant guy (who was he anyway?) brought up an interesting point of Yang possibly grasping power in the future, even if he doesn't want to.
Poor Louis Mashengo didn't get any credit from Yang.

The characters in LWA have better acting and are more charming, likeable and
shippeable.

I didn't forget.
That's a lot of complicated-sounding words to say "LWA is better because of waifus."

First season of LotGH is good, but everything after that far surpasses it.

YOu should really watch more mahou shoujo. Its the best anime genre.
I hope your trip went well!
This kind of inspires me to sketch something up too.
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol

We don't discuss Japanese dubs of other American shows. I fail to see what makes MLP any different.
Regulus Tera

Pretty sure MLP was being discussed in here before the Japanese dub was even announced!
Are we friends Cain? We're friends, right, Cain? Well, then, let me tell you why it's different
magic
Wasn't it here before you?
We've done English dubs of a French show iirc! Another thing I want to get back to.

The combination of Oshima's music and the whimsical nature of the OVA is really something to behold. Everything is so light and silly, and the animation is very overly expressive, almost looney toons like at times. You get can't help but love its charm that's for sure, its infectious. Sucy was totally the best character btw, awesome VA and crazy potions that lead to mass sakuga! Too cool.
