Date rape.
Are you ready for Keiji Gotō's solo episodes?It's probably Brain's Base.
Notice how many times that falling sequence has been done in other stuff, Frontier homage, E7, ZSZ OP etc.
And man way to early to ship in Macross at that stage..... also Minmay sucks except for in DYRL... regardless you'll come around...
Da fuck? Team Ranka

All hail Trigger, etc, etc. This was a pretty fantastic short and one of the best anime works that I have had the pleasure of consuming in some time.
Just about everything thing that I can think to discuss about this production would simply be praising how great it is rather than any substantive criticism, to the point where the real difficulty would be in trying to find weaknesses with the work.
Just one minor thing to point out - I really appreciate how mature the direction is. This visuals are undoubtedly lush and beautiful but the individual shots are constructed in such a manner that the audience is never lost despite the visual splendour unfurling before them. Your eye is never drawn anywhere unnecessarily. For example, take a look at this really early shot:
This is a really lively and attractive crowd scene. Note how all the characters look like individuals and it's not just a lazy copy & paste job. Yet, even though there's quite a number of characters visible in the frame your eye is drawn to Diana. Now, this is a very brief shot and you'd probably not notice this unless you watched the short twice (because how else would you know who she is) but she's present in this initial crowd scene very briefly and the way the director highlights her presence is not by zooming in on her face but by simply having her wear a purple outfit while everyone else is in green and brown. It's simple but elegant.

Crunchyroll got Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos W!
I usually try and do the same, or at the very least go back to scenes I remember. First watch is to turn your brain off, second watch is to ask yourself what's going on. For someone like me who isn't that astute, it helps me notice smaller things I wouldn't have seen the first time.

That power level.
umadggkthxbye?
It's like when I rewatched the first episode of Mitsudomoe Zouryouchuu (Gachi Rangers one) and noticed Inuguchi (Dog Boy) pops up at the end. Also When Gachi Ranger Pink is driving the bus the camera zooms out. If you look carefully she's been replaced by a male stunt double. Yeah, that's about the only time I noticed something clever.
What be gg?

Liked the first season well enough...will give it a shot.

A lot of those things usually fly over my head. A lot of the time, I don't even notice weird things like "QUALITY" or inconsistencies (like all of the PP ones people mentioned).

Indeed. They've done a great job at really fleshing out everyone in Conan. I love how Shiratori evolved from being a smug asshole in his earliest appearances to becoming an absolute favorite. I really like how Aoyama fleshes out everyone's backstories and building their relationships.

Well, I'm glad someone fought the good fight! As I've mentioned on many occasions, it's a truly a 'unique' series in the manner in which it delivers it's story and the amount of work it expects the audience to put in. For a far simpler, but still creatively told, story you should check out the Aoi Bungaku section directed by the same guy: Run Melos.
Hai. You samas need to stop degrading the honorable language of Japan with your misspellings.

Now I'm hoping it is a movie so that Goto doesn't have a chance to fuck this up!
It's finally here!
And crunchyroll did do the insert song lyricsbut no op or ed subs...
AKB and Love Live started like that as well, but the ...other songs did get subtitles in both shows a couple of episodes in.
That is really not what this is about. At all.

Utena is a show that lends itself to thorough analysis!

I haven't seen the short yet, but how are you supposed to pronounce Sucy?
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
It's Susie.
To be fair Japan naming a character "Sucy" would be perfectly believable.
Did you just read that post now? Lol.
