I'm laughing my ass off at that Terraformars thread.

More like every BONES fan.
Can't we agree on both?
Not so fast there slick
I eat a lot of food cold. In fact when I get food I sometimes take 6-10 hours to eat it and by then it is ice cold.
that sounds fair to me.
Not really. If the OST is garbage, no one else will pick it. Cream will still rise to the top.
Whaaaaaat the fuck?
Its well worth your while. Lots of great times ahead if you keep watching.
I would say yay but Im not as enthusiastic about the show. It has some rather dull moments where the mysteries are anything but, and some odd characterizations that really rub me the wrong way, but it does look gorgeous and the production is really unparalleled.
Good lord Renge is one of the cutest characters ever. Youll see.
Chihayafuru is totally not the kind of show you might expect but it definitely has tournament arcs!

Trigger's Ninja Slayer new picture
No sure is this good, compare to novel art.
Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii 4-8
There's nothing too special about this anime, it's just a pleasant and enjoyable watch for me. And I really like Nike as the heroine. Livius is still annoying, but he's become more bearable...kinda.

That girl on the left seems to have a boob window for her buttocks.
Designs are looking a little bit less Ryuko/Satsuki like but there's still some sameface goin on between the schoolgirl and the girl behind her
The visual identity of this show is starting to become confusing.
Have fun!
Fight scenes are probably in those rad colors and stylization while the BG art stays that way and the character profiles change.
If I had to guess. They seem to really go all out with sexy BG art.
Penguin > Polar Bear > Grizzly > Red Panda > Baboon > Panda
The only reason why Panda is needed is that all the other characters work off of him but the character himself has no redeemable features. He isn't even the cutest panda in the show (
that's red panda
Lazy MCs can be done well like Umaru-chan or the cast of Yurumates. Panda just got annoying with the lazy schtick.
Who would have thought that what many nowadays Japanese artist themselves wanted (as Cathy Munroe Hotes mentioned) was just a simple thread on /a/ away of actually happening? At this point, the Nihon Art Animation Senshū uncovering project I mentioned before is as follows:
Anonymoose: Nihon Art Animation Eiga Senshuu
http://anonymemoose.blogspot.ca/2015/01/nihon-art-animation-eiga-senshuu.html
They have passed a new important milestone; as of today, every digital disc from the collection have been secured (as in effectively loaned for this) and in dump process, with 10 of them completely done or very near it.
It is evident there is a grey area on how many of the animated shorts featured on the collection should be on public domain by now, and we can't deny the good and costly efforts done by the publisher in order to compose it, but I still think what was achieved here was worth of praise... and commendable regarding important cultural transmission that should be more easily accessible.

I'm confused as to what style they want to go for here
This transfer was pretty great though. You can actually make out the transparent cels used in the animation process of certain scenes. I actually prefer it this way rather than complete removal during post-processing.
Also, I'm not keen on the last two episodes of Nadia :-\
Agreed! Of course the complains about cel-casted shadows and obvious paint smudges came after all, but there is a certain hand-made charm about it... there are even on this series some cuts that were photographed out-of-frame showing painted parts of the cels beyond the line-art, kind of cute imperfections overall as it shows more evidently what techniques were used. Can't deny the production's cheapness!

Last 2 episodes are great. You loco. Now you have a case on rest of the third cour.

Law of Ueki.
I can agree with this. From the 3/4 episodes I've seen, Panda is the one that I'll go weary of the fastest. But there's a whole lot left of the show still to go so I'll see. Polar Bear is definitely my favourite.

I think it's a pretty easy premise to make generic and uninspired television out of.
I'm even more pumped to watch more now!
Nah, that's just the classic "leotard with chaps" look that some characters use these days.
Hype as fuck let's go
They got in their first shipment Friday. I think they've been getting more too. My LE should be arriving today.
I checked this morning they did ship me a bunch of stuff it arrives tomorrow!
I guess maybe they might ship to closer places first no matter when it was ordered.

Shirobako is a complete success.
Vol.1 cleared 10k and only 300 behind YYY. It'll probably surpass YYY. It sold 1683 volumes last week so it has insane legs.
Vol.2 is past 9k and still having stock issues so it'll end up past 10k.
This is PA Works 2nd best selling work. Angel Beats is #1.

Dunno, I watched Ninja Scroll recently and didn't like how that turned out.
Funi releases always have screwed up contrast. Really noticeable in darker shows (Psycho Pass and WIXOSS got hit hard), but the colors always look off on all shows. Especially apparent with faces looking yellow and sickly, and light backgrounds losing large amounts of detail. There was a scene early on in Ping Pong with Kong and his coach listening to the sounds of a game, and the screen only showing the wind...but with Funi's release, the linework on the wind was lost, causing the scene to be only a white screen for 10-15 seconds.
It's actually pretty easy to fix with MPC. If not using MadVR, View > Renderer Settings > Output Range > change to 16-235. Dims the show slightly and should be put back to 0-255 for non-Funi releases, but fixes all the color issues. If using MadVR, I believe it's something like Ctrl+Alt+Shit+I. If a paying, legitimate user? Short end of the stick as usual.
Already adjusted the gamma settings when I took those screencaps.

That is great to hear.
I was thinking the same thing. Immediately thought that when I saw that thread.
I dont recall much merchandising with this show, but then I wasnt paying much attention to that either. It doesnt seem overly marketable like Precure to me.
That sucks
I wonder what the otaku ARE buying, aside from Kancolle of course.
Dance with Devils TV anime directed by Ai Yoshimura at Brains Base, series composition Tomoko Konparu, character design by Yuka Takashina.
Music is by Elements Garden, music production is handled by DIVEⅡentertainment and music producer is Junpei Fujita.

Dunno if old. http://moca-news.net/article/20150209/2015020922000a_/01/
Is this another reverse harem show?

Adjusting gamma settings won't solve the issue with Funi's videos. That problem is that they are flagged with the wrong RGB range. You need a video player like mpv (or apparently mpc) where you can change the RGB range manually.
For reference, this is the difference on my player. Top is before altering the output range, bottom after.
Well I hadn't changed just the gamma levels, I had gone into the color management settings and tweaked those prior. It's possible I used the initial settings to take the screenshots. I'll verify that in a few minutes. The problem isn't Funimation but the poor lighting throughout the episode.
If we are comparing both works on this sales aspect, it should be noted that Angel Beats! had a big marketing push at the time, very big... talking about 'full-page ads at The Yomiuri Shimbun' big!
