Eva 2.0 other than the gross CGI had some really nice looking scenes.

Guilty Crown I have no idea.

I guess I'm in the minority but I didn't think Eva 2.0's CG was THAT bad, even after rewatching it recently *shrug*.

But what's Guilty Crown doing here (or anywhere)? I thought this had been erased from existence. Guess I'm in the wrong world line.

 

[zeroshiki]

In this regard it's pretty bad aside from one fight towards the end that I recall being legit.

We should do one for AnimeGaf's favorite scenes.

My vote goes to the Kenshin x Saito fight during the start of the Kyoto arc in RK.

 

[fertygo]

The cut with meteor like angel in 2.0 was really good IMO, especially in cinema.

Guilty Crown only have like one good cut

 

[Regulus Tera]

Guilty Crown is on that list only because it looks shiny, I bet.

Anyway Dennou Coil deserves to be there.

 

[Milamber]

How's the new Berserk movie?

I didn't like what they did with it, but it really is kind of hard to destroy Berserk (although they sure did their best to do it) so I guess people might enjoy it.

 

[fertygo]

Guilty Crown is on that list only because it looks shiny, I bet.

Looks shiny my ass lulz..

 

[cajunator]

Have you seen the original?

Here's the BD cover:

I dont like those. Too plain.

So, once again Biglobe had a poll, and only 4300 people showed up. Probably because it wasn't about waifus or seiyuu or anything like that, but in fact a topic much closer to all of your hearts. The question this time was:

What anime series do you feel has the best sakuga?

The top ten from the limited results, such as they were:

So, what would be on your list?

GitS as in the movie? I don't think it's fair to compare series with films when it comes to animation.
I'm still waiting for Gundam Unicorn and the Eva remakes to finish (yeah, I suck, I know), so I can't comment on those.
I don't think Break Blade deserves to be there, and while Fate/Zero looks gorgeous, there really isn't a lot of great sakuga in it. Guilty Crown has some nice shots but the entirety of the second half of the show is pretty ugly.
Bebop and FMA deserve to be there, of course.

It would be really hard to make my list, but there would be a bunch of BONES stuff on it, old Gainax too. The old Gundam OVAs, a bunch of stuff, I don't really want to think about it too much or I might lose half of my day trying to come up with a list I'm satisfied with lol

 

[Jex]

Why is he locked out of his house?

Because art.

What's plain about the first one?

 

[trejo]

Minami-ke Tadaima ep 4

Hosaka Overload. Oh Hosaka, why are you so stupid yet stupidly awesome?

Time to watch the new Minami-ke.

I'm going on the record to state that I currently have NO plans to watch anything Samurai Girls related ever again.

Sorry guys.

 

[faridmon]

OK I am watching Sword Art Online for the first time just to see what the whole hype is all about and I am on Ep. 4.


Does this Anime know what 'Pace'' means?

Clearly you haven't been hanging around AnimeGAF enough.

I seem to remember people loving the shit out of it around here. Am I wrong?

AnimeGAF move too fast for me

not really but i've heard it's on pretty good terms with the words "rape" and "bad"

 

[Narag]

But that's what I would vote for too!

I recall firehawk (or possibly dresden as firehawk) equate Reki Kawahara to Pol Pot.

Well certainly the haters are the vocal ones.

I can't say I had an issue with pacing.

 

[faridmon]

I can't say I had an issue with pacing.

Really? Not the main suddenly changes from a lone wolf in the first EP, to having a party in the second EP to not having a party again to having one. Also, from when he becomes a caring character to an immature character and then to a good one again? An all of it happening without any interlude nor build up.

 

[wonzo]

Give it a few more new volumes and I'd upgrade him to a Leopold II at the very least.

 

[cajunator]

What's plain about the first one?

Can't see Arrietty very well.

 

[BGBW]

[Spring Season Chart]

Train Heroes and Poli The Robo Car? That season looks terrific!

 

[wonzo]

Can't see Arrietty very well.

That's the point though.

 

[mAcOdIn]

Chance

Sure, there's always a chance, I mean, maybe some organization would pay me thousands of dollars to watch that shitty show's sequel for science. Or malice. Any reason's fine really so long as the figures 4 figures or more, really.

Vol 1 consist of the ep 1,8,9,10,13, and 14. Vol 2,8 and side stories covers 2,3,4,5,6,7,11,12. Go figure.

 

[faridmon]

I am glad that, there at least some of you lot that agree with me when it comes to its overall quality. I don't even know if I should continue watching it.

ChihayaFuru S2 Ep 1-3

Yes, one of my favorite Animes making a comeback and its as good as ever... until they introduced a bitchy and totally unlikable character. Yep, Shoujo is gonna Shoujo. Lets just hope she develop into a more realised character.

Now here is a question: Who is your favorite Bitchy/totally unlikable character in an Anime?

Mine is :

Huh?

... WTF?

 

[mAcOdIn]

Now here is a question: Who is your favorite Bitchy/totally unlikable character in an Anime?

Here's mine:

Saki from Genshiken, although I personally never thought she was bitchy but, eh, others have told me otherwise.

 

[faridmon]

Here's mine:

Saki from Genshiken, although I personally never thought she was bitchy but, eh, others have told me otherwise.

I sort of like here, because she is the essence of Genshiken, just because of her attitude, we get to see the story of the club in such fashion.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Now here is a question: Who is your favorite Bitchy/totally unlikable character in an Anime?

Requiescat In Pace jman ;___;

 

[Lain]

Badasses Wreaking Havoc In Another World 3

This episode was kind of a downer. I mean, I was expecting it to be funny and cool as the first 2 episodes, but this one didn't really deliver. The fight didn't have that overpowered aura to it and stuff.
At least the community is establishing itself, so more chances for some cool kick-ass times in the future.

 

[Hitokage]

Saki isn't unlikable. Just because she isn't otaku doesn't make her a bitch!

 

[Steroyd]

[Joshiraku] - 10

The Joshiraku ED is really good. that is all.

Chibi characters must be some sort of cheat code for ED's.

I seem to remember people loving the shit out of it around here. Am I wrong?

HAHAHA

I mean, I could probably understand where you'd get that impression if you've only read impressions in here on SAO up until episode 8...

 

[Jintor]

Here's mine:

Saki from Genshiken, although I personally never thought she was bitchy but, eh, others have told me otherwise.

Absolutely correct.

She wasn't bitchy. Hell, she tolerated the Genshiken's crazy antics for far longer than any reasonable person would have

 

[cajunator]

That's the point though.

but.. I wanna see her

Saki isn't unlikable. Just because she isn't otaku doesn't make her a bitch!

True. I like Saki. She was the grounded "normal" character to offset the zany otakus.

Why is bebop up there.

Id have Accel World, Guilty Crown, HxH, E7AO, Star Driver, Eva

 

[Regulus Tera]

I think you need to go revisit what sakuga is.

 

[DiGiKerot]

I think you need to go revisit what sakuga is.

Most of those shows (well, maybe not so much GC) had some pretty spectacular animation in places, though.

 

[faridmon]

HAHAHA

I mean, I could probably understand where you'd get that impression if you've only read impressions in here on SAO up until episode 8...

You mean, it gets worse? Bloody hell! Maybe, I'll keep on watching it just to see how it develops. I really hate how it jumps from one scenario to another without any warning, and the main character sucks!

 

[Articalys]

You're probably going to hate the show, but dear god is this thread going to love your reactions to it.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Yeah, I laughed quite a bit. Shame they didn't put more effort into it.

Will keep expectations very low going into it. Thanks!

 

[cajunator]

Oh, it gets fucking abysmally awful, and thats going by my extremely lax standards too.

 

[R_thanatos]

Minami-ke tadaima - 04

Yes ! infinite potential !

Again an excellent episode with chiaki and finally hosaka !
Some old season 1 & 2 references and good stuff overall.

Excellent episode.. They really put a huge dose of hosaka in it.

 

[cajunator]

Is this the best place to get Chihayafuru music? I REALLLLYYYYYY need it.

That is actually cheaper than I thought. Some of those J-Rock Albums go for some crazy prices. Speaking of Anime OST, the one I really want to get is Allison and Lillia one. I remember that OST being fantastic, but I haven't got the chance to get it.

But yeah, Chihayafuru have a great music.

Well, I was entertained and satisfied for six weeks so the show did its job

Time to spend the next three Saturday nights watching Blood-C. Based on the reactions from all the various anime threads here, this should be fun....

Fuck that, I'm so scared. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A FEELS GOOD ANIME!!!

For a different reason than you might think, but go for it. Duckroll needs a buddy along the line.
