Please stop stealing my material.
Thing is...I'd be okay with that. It's easily their best work.
You are a cat. I am a duck. It is fate.
"I wish that Gen Urobuchi writes an mecha anime."
Anyway,
I finished Day Break Illusion
First of, recommend watching the speical prequel episode before watching the rest of the show, because it should have been the beginning of the show.
The show is far from flawless, espically when it comes to the story, but I liked it well enough.
It was a few very annyoing happits as well, such as introduction a character only to kill them in the same episode was part of someones character arc.
There are quite a few cool ideas in the show, but many of them aren't explored very well.
In general the show feels rushed.
I'm a fan of the art style, but sometimes it can look really goofy. The fights take place in a parallel dimensions, which are usually very creative.
The ending, while far from 100% conclusive, was pretty satisfying for me. It feels more like an end to an arc, than an end to the story, but it doesn't looks like we will every get a sequel.
It's.... A Time For Wolves.

Fun episode, even though I wish we wouldn't have gotten an evil team so early and had some more episodes with just Papika and Cocona doing some adventuring, compared to how episodes now are probably going to focus more on their clash against the cultists, even if they still get to visit bizarre locales in pure illusion.
Things will be okay for me as long as the cultists don't hold the show hostage, but I still don't know what to expect from future episodes. The whole brainwashing helmlet thing already felt like the show was trying to do an ep3 twist to go on and become more serious, but I feel like previous episodes were perfectly fine with the sense of wonder and strangeness they evoked.
Then again maybe the show's going to turn away from that soon as well, since I don't remember the monster girl's crystal or the cultists being hinted at before. If anything, the plot turning into a race to gather the McGuffins before the evil team would be a letdown for me.

I'm gonna drop this here. It's not a completely awful show, but I struggle to think of anything it does well. I don't find the characters or central conflict interesting.

Outside of the staff, I'm hoping for some info on when the new FMP airs.

Don't have a Nicovideo account, and I'm not really keen on making one right now, so I'll stick to reading reactions.

Well, seems like will be Xebec.

Not sure how I feel about that.

Huh, Jarmel partly guessed it right. Guess that means CG mechs though. :|
Um. As long as they don't use the character designer that they used for LxB and Triage X, I'm good.

All I know is that the animation studio is Xebec.

Not really? Looking him up quickly he directed this in 2006. Unless there's something I'm missing regarding that.
I want to watch it but that girl's character design turns me away from seriously considering it.

There's a new thread for FMPIV in case if people want the known info in one place.
I hope the Kyoani derailing stops. It's obnoxious to see people whining about them when it came out 12 years ago.

You never know, especially if Takashi Aoki ends up working on this. Fafner Exodus is a very attractive show, with consistently strong photography that certainly rivals KyoAni's strength in that department, even if the character animation is certainly not up with KyoAni's best.
I would have thought Beyond the Boundary would have shut people up about wanting KyoAni to not "waste" their talent on non-action anime.

It was known for a long time that KyoAni wasn't going to animate it. I'm surprised people are surprised about this.
Gargantia was pretty cool.
I am too. I've seen similar reactions on twitter but I suppose I eventually need to accept studio memes as part of the overall fandom.
Wow imagine how good that action would be if Madhouse had made it.

I am late 2 days thanks to double shifts at work. I finally got to watch Shelter on the 4k TV. Beautiful short, easily my favorite this year. As I have found 2016 incredibly disappointing in both anime and games.
A lot of the imagery reminded me of 5cm/s, did A1 have any shared staff from that project? Seems too similar for mere coincidence.

Is there a studio that alternates more between quality and QUALITY than Xebec?

Is not very melodramatic thought. Is more like SNAFU with comedy.
