almost everything.
Keep telling yourself that.
Excellent contribution to the discussion!
The various other minor details on the site with regards to the setting and story of the show confirm that Psycho-Pass is a near-future detective thriller sort of anime, dealing with law enforcement in a high-tech world, etc. Sounds good to me!
Isn't this going to be all-CGI, or am I thinking of something else?
I'm half expecting for the guy to touch her boobs. This has potential
for decreasing further birthrates in Japan.

No one really knows. There is probably a pretty heavy CG component since the first teaser was a CG gun, and it looks like it's going to be an IG show, but if Shiotani is directing it's not likely going to be full CG, since the guy is an animator himself. We'll find out... soon! Lol.

Well there's a reason most anime takes place in school settings.
LOL they're doing this on purpose now.

Same thing.
I so want this
It's like they're Lucas-ing their own shows but instead of waiting 20 years they're doing it after a few months.
Oh, I see you already went there.
Can you imagine how disappointed the blogosphere would be if they opened up a SHAFT Bluray and it wasn't full of redos?
At least, unlike Lucas, they aren't adding more shitty CG. Though I guess the the manservice censoring was done digitally, so that argument goes out the window.

I admit if this were released in English I would SO use this for my characters, Giga Girl in particular.
Are you sure about that?
curse your fast quoting skills.
If the artists don't care about their work, why should anyone else?
Because regardless of the artists' intent, other people may enjoy it, and therefore care about it.
Artists are poor judges of their own work. If they were satisfied by it and stopped, they wouldn't be artists anymore.
I want that on my iPad too!
The original cuts of the Star Wars trilogy are important cultural artifacts. George Lucas is basically an art vandal. Especially since it's not like he made them all by himself.
pizzaroll's alt?
Revisionism (as in, replacing the original) is fucking awful no matter what.
It's not like I'm the only one in the world who holds that view, you know. Pretty much any serious film watcher would agree.

This looks more like an evolution of current technology than any kind of groundbreaking innovation, but I guess it will be useful for some games.

Well better invent some ultra sturdy screens.
Live2D is used in the Haganai game for PSP and the app for iOS/Android.
I was thinking it was used in the PS3 port of White Album but the PV for that says it uses "motion portrait."

SO happy about this.... i welcome the next gen in waifu rendering
Culture has really gone to shit if that's the case.
Think of it this way, imagine if the Louvre decided the Mona Lisa was outdated and they painted over it with their own take. People would be outraged regardless of the legality of doing so.
Well, that's one opinion. Regardless, the impact of Star Wars on popular culture and modern fiction is undeniable.

Whether you think they are worth that status has nothing to do with the fact that they are important parts of culture.

Can bad things happen to Ghostprick yet? Like devoured by a Hellmouth, or whatever happens to shitty ghosts in Japanese folklore? I'm finding it hard to feel anything but contempt for this guy.

Not to defend SHAFT, but there is a difference between what they do and what Lucas does.
Regardless of the quality, Star Wars is/was important.
Not all revision is bad, you guys make it sound like an artist should never touch a piece of artwork again if their pencil leaves the paper.
They shouldn't try to pass it off as the same thing if they have modified it though. There's nothing wrong with revisiting something and doing it differently if it is presented as a modified work. But trying to go back and change things you did to completely replace the previous work is wrong.
Any revisionism which replaces the existing work is bad. There is nothing wrong with multiple versions co-existing, but they should be properly communicated.
No, it'd be like the Louvre commissioning a revised version of the Mona Lisa (not painted over, that would be stupid) that is then presented as a follow up to the original.
Really, the only problem with what Lucas did is attempting to make the original cuts inaccessible, a stance that I will not defend. But nothing more.

Zzzzz...All the feels I had for this show is slowly going away. This is dragging quite long, not even really sure where it's going anymore.

I'm pretty sure there's no danger of the TV broadcast of Nise no longer being available nowadays. Heck, even if that weren't the case, the original version was broadcast solely on TV with the explicit expectation that it would be released in a permanent form on Blu-Ray revised. That sounds like proper communication to me.

To Love-ru OVA 2
And with that, a new girl joins Rito's harem.
Finally some focus on Rito's sister, Mikan. This episode wasn't as amazing as the last one, but not much could compete with that one. Though I suppose it had this.
Two zeppelins preparing to dock.

Well, not really.
This should become a televised sport. I'd watch it.

Bah, it's not like I've heard anyone talk about the merits of Bakemonogatari. Going through old threads is too much of a pain in the ass. For the record, I don't think it's totally worthless. I just don't think the good outweighs the bad.
Fair enough.
No, you had it right the first time.
Almost as much of a pain in the ass as actually engaging people that you disagree with.
This is where I link you to Jex's essay, right?
Unfortunately library computers don't have the link bookmarked, so someone else will have to supply it

So she was joking about not being blood related?
Kininamarisu?

Yeah, I really wish Shimao's control over Hazuki's body would come to an end as it's really starting to give me the shits. I just want them to focus on Hazuki's and Rokka's relationship but instead I get this arsehole of a ghost messing things up. Whatever, at least there was some nice clothing sakuga at the very end.

That was a joke yes.
Not-blood related incest is boring, Yabuki knows this rest assured.
