They did the same thing to GitS 2.0 that the Wachowski Brothers did to the original Matrix film. In both cases, the result was worse than the original. Imagine that.

My body did a full dry-heave as I scrolled down.
Dear lord, that is beyond repulsive. There needs to be some sort of organization that takes works away from groups that are going to abuse them. Like Child Protective Services, but for films.
I feel like I'm owed an explanation for it.

This is the anti-loli

Grenadier 1-3
Hmm so-so, would be the nice if the swordsman actually did anything ever, I have a feeling he wont
Well, there were scenes in the PV that didn't show up in the actual episode, so there's still hope!

loser who'll never amount to anything and forever be stuck in class B and will also end up friendzoned. Taichi!!!!!! ;_;
There really should be. The recent decades have shown that not even the original creators of films can be trusted anymore.

I guess I could see how it could be alright, it doesnt seem that they said they were murdered or something. Im thinking its Moe too, I never even recall seeing her when they were in class in the initial episodes

Too much shit happened on this EP, and all of it was awesome.
Also, I take back what I said about Kunzite being like Akio, he's not a real pimp :c
I too thought Kunzite was fabulous. It was a mirage though. The only reason he looked awesome in the first place was because of Zoisite, who is truly the best.
Kunzite is a phony
I have the weirdest boner right now.

The way I see it, I think its for the best to just stick with the tv show until the end and read the manga later rather than read the manga now just to see how it all ends.Watching newcomer's speculations is the best part about Mirai Nikki.
I have the weirdest hnnnng right now...
I'm not even completely convinced that this is tsundere either.

Hey look, some real life (ie, non-anime people) people did an Oshii episode on their Asian Film podcast:

Is the anime as big of a clusterfuck as the manga? Because the messy art makes it hard to follow what the hell is going on at some points.
I'd expect nothing less from that
I'm glad somebody appreciates me around here.

This is fixed in PGSM.I too thought Kunzite was fabulous. It was a mirage though. The only reason he looked awesome in the first place was because of Zoisite, who is truly the best.

Bakemonogatari 7
Yay "cleaning up".
It's still Bakemonogatari, with five minute long conversations about pantsu, but I kinda enjoyed the vibe of it. Maybe I'm just adjusting to the tropes that confused me in the first episode, or maybe this episode generally has pretty decent forward momentum.
It looks like there's going to be another 15 seconds of action in the next episode, so that's exciting.

The action in episode 8 is pretty neat and nicely animated, if short. Overall, it's one of the better executed episodes of the show.
I'll just warn you right now: you will not like episodes 9-10. Feel free to skip them.
That isn't tsundere at all. They would slap you in the face before anything else.
By the way what is the Next Oshii project?
Note that I said "of the story", I'm talking about the stakes of the series.
The guy is obviously gifted otherwise.

Or
the hero who has to overcome the hardship of a crushing defeat in order to become more powerful and gain even stronger motivation.
He's called Pimpzite for a reason.
I like this version more.
Yeah, but after that you get to episode 12, the best in the series.
I-I don't know how I feel about this.
I might watch them anyway, but I'll keep that advice in mind. I don't think I'm as much of a masochist as a lot of people here, at least not when it comes to anime.
The way I saw it,
they left that stuff up in the air, but he realized that he didn't have to feel threatened by the new prospect. Before, he saw him the way the media and fans saw him, and he was this scary young new ideal who would usurp him, but after that run-in following the hostess club, he saw that the kid was just as human and flawed as he was, and it wasn't a big deal.
No, you can't skip them. As... ergh as they are you must take in the entire experience,
invisible snake blowjobs
What else would he be watching in this day and age.
Changing his philospohical quisi-Kitchen Sink approach to animation ot this...
How the mighty have fallen. Please, someone revive Satoshi Kon
The what?
I like his stuff because its slower and deeper than many Anime movies out there.
actually kitchen sink was the wrong term to use since few of his movies had that style, but neverthe less, his later stuff is a more realistic approach to the medium.
Don't you mean "the quid quid" as per your tag?
I don't actually have a huge problem with Oshii diversifying into this weird hybrid thing. I love anime and all, but why shouldn't he explore a different way of getting his work out there? It's not as if Tachigui, for instance, was conventionally animated, so why not cellphone animanga?

When real movie reviewers care about you, it's true!
Define realistic
I am.
And... uh...
Hmmm.

Further circumstantial evidence that Bakemonogatari is set in a postapocalyptic wasteland:
- Kanbaru has to come up with her own nickname.
- When she's spying on Araragi and Senjougahara in their classroom, there's nobody else there.
I consider all scenes with lots of cars driving on highways to be symbolic.
I'm just leery of it being, well, cellphone animanga. I've no problems with him going back to comedy.
Sky Crawelers and Musashi (which were the latest ones I have watched by him) had this emotional feel to it which depict the era they both was set in. also, I would say the Ghost in the Shell had the realsim which was defined in its own cyber-punk world.
