Ohhhhhh, Akibaranger! Yeah, I've heard that's really good. It's a parody of/homage to Sentai. Made by Toei, the same guys who make the main Sentai series. Full of references to previous Sentai and such. It's definitely on my "watch this someday" list.

Akibarangers was wonderful, and I'm really glad I was able to work on it, even though the official release was so limited by American standards.

Also, what is with the sudden Nichijou explosion. I'm confused...

I've yet to see it myself. Perhaps I will watch it one day down the line.

Three people played Recettear! At the time, we had a system inspired by the Eva Magi for whether gags like that were OK to let through, and all three of us agreed that yayifications was perfect.
I find this more awesome than the pun itself.
wtf is a duwang anyway
The first people to attempt to do a fan translation of Part 4 of the JoJo manga... didn't have the best translation skills. Part 4 takes place in a town called Morioh, written 杜王, but the Chinese reading of those same characters is "duwang", which for some reason is what the translators used (I've heard they were using the official Chinese versions of the chapters as their source). It's become a minor JoJo meme since then, alongside many other poorly translated lines from that same group.

Not good enough, I'm not on it. Then again, it's supposed to be a comparison everyone can laugh at rather than as a solid example of good vs. bad, and that would break it!

Oh, who am I kidding, I'd have two panels replaced with "only available in Southeast Asia" and a third with "dongs chopsticks are stopped, Sae line needs translation"

Ichigo needs to stop being so dense and realize Aoi's obvious feelings.

@SSOmega 32
Yeah, Umakoshi is finally taking his "Chief Animation Director" role seriously. However, it just makes the bad scenes stand out more. Seriously.

One minute it looks like this:

And the next it looks like this:

The Toei mooks that didn't get their drawing corrected probably feel like shit watching the episode.

So by corrected you really mean they just threw in a bunch of random lines in there on the faces for "detail".

Yep, this pretty much owned as usual. Haru's still acting the part of Mr. Rapey McRapist, Oshima's still pretty much her own worse enemy, and I've got an awful feeling the rich blonde douchebag's gonna play part in a second love triangle.

Kaichou Wa Maid Sama! is softcore porn? Guess I have a new show to add to my watch list.

Greatest love story ever told and an intelligently written masterpiece. SAO will redefine anime for years to come.



Damn it.
 
Sekirei ~Pure Engagement~ 5
Ok, so he's turning into a woman, I get that. And he's growing boobs, I can see that. But what about his penis? Did he lose it or in the process of losing it? Did he ever have one in the first place? So many questions.
As for the episode, it had some good action towards the end, but like all of Sekirei, they always like to throw some humor in the mix of it. I already kinda know how this arc will turn out, as it's kinda spoiled by the opening, but whatever. Pretty good so far.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
The first one is pretty obviously a slipshod job but the second is passable. I could see people not being able to tell the difference between the Umakoshi frames and the second one, but the first one is much less vibrant and energetic.

My exact reaction.



The entire face has a different shape! Even the hair is more detailed in the Umakoshi-corrected drawings! It actually looks like hair!

It really doesnt.
The differences are pretty subtle overall.
I see what youre talking about somewhat but many people wouldnt notice it.
Frame one with the eyes and poorly drawn hair is more obvious but frame two looks fine.

Maybe not at first glance. But just look at the area around the eyes on both sets of pictures. One set of pictures has actual depth. There's a huge difference in quality, there.

Sure, there are many people who might never pay attention to that. That doesn't make the big gap non-existent.

The main difference is the umakoshi one has wider eyes and some small detail lines.
The only "depth" in the top ones is some slightly different shading.

its subtle but its definitely more refined

I'm not entirely sure why, but I think of Steins;Gate and Death Note(and Code Geass[/B fwiw) as being in the same vein. I'd think that someone who likes one of those would like all of them.


im not sure why either
