Kill la Kill |OT|
- Thread starter Crash Station
- Start date
The endgame that takes place in Kyoto ends in Oda's ultimate defeat, tho. It should at least feature one relatively large scale battle...
even if I'm sure they will fill with with CG minions.
What the next arc should do is stop dragging out Ryuuko actually meeting-up with Nudist Beach; them having their HQ in Kobe or Osaka would be the perfect way to get them in the story.
Yep, it's essentially the only i started watching KLK, nowadays i only watch 2-3 series per year and i was very torn because of the amount of fanservice (in fact i started watching it late) but given the people working on it and the whole "SAVING THE INDUSTRY" people spouted at the beginning at the end i started it and now i'm kind of disappointed :/

That lady is very dirty.
I think that is the angle.
I personally started watching Kill La Kill in spite of disliking Gurren Lagann (or, really, any other anime I've given a chance in recent memory). What makes KLK so enjoyable for me is its cheeky satire of a form that I feel was growing stale and self-indulgent. In my eyes, it's doing the same thing that the equally-episodic Don Quixote did 400 years earlier: lampooning a genre riddled by escapist fantasy by showing up the absurdity of its tropes and techniques—and it's doing it while still bringing something uniquely campy to the table week in and week out. That's at least how it hooked this former anime fan who almost gave up on the "industry".

Wow never thought someone would compare Kill la Kill to Don Quixote, and here we are. And you know what? you are right on everything.

That was not Deus Ex Machina, that was an affirmation of the bonds forged through the first half of the series being strong enough to stop the rampage, which is fairly common trope on its own.
I looked up the definition of deus ex machina, and you are right. I used that term incorrectly.
I still don't like the convenience of Mako being there. I was happy when Nui was about to intervene, until Satsuki stopped her...
Not sure if I follow since Mako has always been there unless this is treated to your larger Mako hatred.

1st Half of Series:
Arguably even earlier then that given that there was a lot of calling back to the Fight Club episode.
I can see Eddy-Ryuko and Mako-Ed.I'm uncomfortable with how accurate this is

lol, oh wow.
At this point the only resources are to adjust to it or drop the show because the fanservice is not going anywhere.
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
It's jarring at first but you eventually get used to it.

Same thing here which makes me overly concerned about X's soundtrack lol.
Well, what's done is done. Wondering how the 3-star uniforms would be upgraded.
Odd how she took a picture (assuming she was trying to seem aritifical or robotic), then the next pic she looks human again.
Ep 13 30 sec preview http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x18r7z3_klk13

Yep!
And by the looks of it I'm guessing
There's different producers of Ultima/Goku Uniforms by the different schools; all based on some sort of Core design from Revocs Corporation, makes sense since we've learned that there are different family branches.
The preview pretty much tells you the entire plot of the episode, but I guess it couldn't not be straightforward; it's obviously going to be
Nah, I'm sure those guys
Ryuuko starting to fight for selfless reasons rather than selfish reason; after all, she is protecting the kid with the glasses from Satsuki's minions.
Nah, I'm sure those guys
are wearing the upgraded versions Satsuki said were just completed.
Not sure how I feel about this, someone took the KLK OP illustrations and made a Shingeki no Kyojin crossover: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=40402924

The flashback and Mako redeemed this episode. I just wish Nudist Beach would just finally spell shit out to Ryuuko.
show saved. rip klk ken
but they actually did spell things out for her, and she didnt even listen
No, they didn't. They make cryptic comments and expect her to work for them no questions asked.

My opinion on this show did a complete 180. The first episode was absolute garbage, and so I decided not to give the rest of the series a chance and deemed it utter crap.
But having given it a chance (now on episode 11), holy fucking shit this show is good. I'm completely over how ridiculously fanservicy Ryuko's outfit is. Also glad that the male characters get some fanservice moments too.
If they have, they must have done it during episode 11 or 12. Because they certainly haven't told her shit in the first 10 fucking episodes.

As I've said before, there are two types of people in this world: People who like Mako and all those other losers!

stupid sexy sensei said what their plan was and ryuko was like "bullshit tell me the real reason!" and then when she left he commented to himself that he actually did tell her the truth.
He didn't tell her his plan, he told her his organization was called Nudist Beach. He was lying by saying that Tsumugu going after her was perfectly calculated so she was right to call him on his bullshit.
