Terra Formars Revenge - 01
Worst offender being not even a single bit of trivia regarding Earth lifeforms.

0/10

Truly, a most glaring omission.

Ace Attorney 01

Now, I admittedly don't have a clue how trials work but don't you have to disclose your evidence before the trial begins ? Doesn't defense get to meet and talk about the case with the person they're defending ? It didn't seem to me like either was the case here. Maybe the rules are different for lawyers that display psychokinetic powers in the court.

I actually liked the meat of the case somewhat and the resolution to it but everything else was bad and I don't think the humor translated well into anime. Some of the dialogue was painful. So were the bizarre breakdowns of the witness.

Ace Attorney 1

Pretty standard first episode. The 1st case was the most boring in AA1 and they didn't even keep the throwing hair gag in the anime. Let's see how it does going forward.

Truly, a most glaring omission.

I take it you've never played Ace Attorney before? Serious question.

 

[Narag]

Ace Attorney 1

Perfunctory effort but the first case sucked anyhow so there wasn't much to work with. The real test will be the longer cases that have buildup outside of the courtroom and payoff in it. Other prosecutors give someone for Naruhodo to play off which is disctinctly lacking in this first case.

This is literally one of the high points of the series.

The breakdowns of the witnesses are the best part and perhaps the most rewarding things about the games.

If you haven't played the games before seeing the anime, I highly recommend doing so.

Ace Attorney doesn't care about real-life courtroom procedure. But if you're interested in it at all, quit the anime and go pick up the games.

This is what all the good animators were working on instead of KonoSuba and Erased last season?

Yeah, as others have said, Ace Attorney doesn't care about real life. I mean, the fact alone that trials only have a maximum duration of 3 days says it all.

Heh, I forgot about that. Someone should go remind Zac about that and see what he says.

I barely play games these days and I'm certainly not going to buy console to play one game I'm mildly curious about. So it's sink or anime for me,

I take it you've never played Ace Attorney before? Serious question.

I didn't, I only know about the franchise through general osmosis on GAF. I specifically picked this show to see what the fuss is about,

Kono Suba is by DEEN not A1 and DEEN always have quality issues.

 

[-Minsc-]

We should start a "To Be Fair" club.

To Be Fair this has only been the first episode.

I rewatched the court case and found I enjoyed it more the second time around.

Unlike most anime, I'm somewhat interested in seeing what they can do with the english dub for this. Some cheesy and overly dramatic, but not annoying, acting would easily work in this shows favour.

More Galko can replace Galko.

Terra Formars Revenge - 01

Too much screaming. Looks bad. Mostly punches with no use of combat techniques related to their 'spirit animals'.
Worst offender being not even a single bit of trivia regarding Earth lifeforms.

0/10

The prolonged Power Yell was taking too long and felt like a serious asspull. And I'm not sure if there was any need for trivia this time, since it needs to be someone new for trivia to be shown.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Kono Suba is by DEEN not A1 and DEEN always have quality issues.

He is referring to a comment in the ANN podcast that stated all the anime in the winter season had bad animation because all the animators were busy working on Ace Attorney and Attack on Titan.

Ace Attorney 1

It wasn't really great, but decent. Maybe my expectations were just pretty low to begin with. I do hope the music for my favorite theme next trial isn't as lackluster as the music in this episode was.

Man, this reminds me I need to go rewatch the live-action movie after this finishes.

 

[Basileus777]

Ace Attorney 1
You'd be better off watching a Let's Play of the game as little to no effort was made to actually adapt this into a different medium.

 

[nintendoman58]

At this point, I'm watching the Ace Attorney anime for the voice acting, the varying facial expressions, and to see how it handles the climaxes of my favourite cases.

The voice acting though is the key thing for me here, as the original trilogy had absolutely none of it so I'm definitely sticking around to hear the performances to come for some of the more wacky characters and the important moments of the series.

The Lost Village 01

So many characters...
and one unlucky hippopotamus.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

I didn't, I only know about the franchise through general osmosis on GAF. I specifically picked this show to see what the fuss is about,

In that case I'd recommend dropping the series and just go play the games. If you have a 3DS, you can buy the Ace Attorney trilogy on eShop.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

So was Kiznaiver's first ep decent? And I mean it in a "I'm very jaded against Trigger for not focusing on LWA" kind of way, not a "I like everything they make" way.

 

[Exalted]

Asterisk 13

And it's back, Animegafs favorite LN battle harem . And the show wasted no time, throwing us directly back into the fire, hehe , and continuing the tournament.

Has it even aired yet? Anichart says that the first episode is airing next week.

You mean Luloco?

The first episode isn't out.

What is out is just a special about the show.

? Then NVM I guess lol I thought people were watching screenings and shit, I assumed it was like a week early or something.

Don't be silly. There is always a need for trivia!

Spoiler

I was only half serious with that statement

 

[Jotamide]

Is there a new thread to ask for CR guest passes? I found this but for some reason it was locked. I just wanna check out JoJo.

There was a prescreening at a convention. Impressions were that it was "Breakfast Club meets Saw", according to Jarmel.

Jarmel loves Trigger, but damn if that isn't a good way to reel me in. When it airs I'll wait for impressions of the more critical people see if it's at least ok.

Oh I don't listen to podcast ever since 1up died.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Ace Attorney 01

I'm glad that they included an option for the English names, since that seemed to be bothering a lot of people. I could've let it slide but its better with the Eng names. But they aren't even trying to say its not set in Japan, lol

But the actual show? Quite possibly the blandest and most sterile adaptation of all time. Capcom put more effort into Street Fighter V's launch. No endeavor was given to make this even remotely interesting to someone who has not played the games since its just a slapdash cut of the first case, and even if you have played the games it isn't interesting then either.

Will I watch the second episode? Yes, just to see if they are getting the rather bland first case out of the way for the better.

I haven't seen Kiznaiver.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Huh.

Saw Cyborg 009 in Netflix and I just realized that Jiro from Concrete Revolutio is like his exact copy but with pink hair lol

I haven't seen Kiznaiver.

I've been lied to

 

[Jarmel]

I've been lied to

It wasn't my impressions but rather others who were at the convention. I can't be bothered to travel 8 hours for the possibility that a Trigger show isn't shit.

 

[Line_HTX]

It's listed as Episode 0, Woofington.

 

[Cornbread78]

Was Mayoiga done by the dude who did Another? Cause I'll be honest, I actually liked Another a lot so that's a plus in my book.

Gonna watch new Asterisk but now that Rakugo S1 is done Imma marathon it later this weekend or...maybe over the course of the week. We'll see how I want to digest it.

Yes. He did Another, Blood-C and Shirobako.

Today (well, 1am tomorrow in Japan) according to the official website.

Damn, I wonder what time that is on Crunchyroll for EST.

 

[Line_HTX]

Trying to remember it's daylight savings, so it should be 12 noon EDT.

 

[Theonik]

Oh you tease.

No teasing only good anime!

When are you gonna take up on my suggestion on

Spoiler

Mnemosyne??

:lol

When I can be bothered to!

 

[BluWacky]

Damn, I wonder what time that is on Crunchyroll for EST.

Crunchyroll have already stated that they will be premiering it tomorrow afternoon EST - I guess around 2:30pm, if I can work out time differences correctly?

Could it be? The Another successor we all been waiting for?

Ib4 the village doesn't exist and it's 13 episodes of buss trip.

 

[CheapJuice]

This may help with keeping track of shows at the beginning of seasons and air times conversion

 

[duckroll]

Another x Blood-C x Guu

BELIEVE

 

[PdotMichael]

A combination which would kill and reborn anime.

 

[Line_HTX]

Duckroll just wants another Saya series.

Shin Sekai Yori 12+13
Finally backstory. Stuff slowly starts to make sense. I like. Animation in 13 was again pretty bad. I dislike.

I also can't afford to boil eggs.

But you don't see me trying to kill an entire bus full of reddit users.
