it is literally the work that inspired virtually all modern isekais and yet it was better than them, the anime adaptation was inferior to Novel but still is a good choice for those who want to start watching anime. what do you think about it?

Here are my thoughts.
my favorite thing about it was when someone on an ERP chat was explaining the protag of the show to someone else and described him as a "non-sentient being"
>>4
Well he was not wrong, on the anime Saito is very "non-sentient" but in the novels he is a little better.
>it is literally the work that inspired virtually all modern isekais
And that's a bad thing. They also played a part in creating the pariah that are modern tsundere.

someone who hasn't watched anime in the past ten years here. mind explaining?
>it is literally the work that inspired virtually all modern isekais
Wrong. That's Mushoku Tensei.
I watched your name yesterday. It was very good. The two main characters don't know each other so it creates a really cool dynamic and I thought it was very well made.
I'm watching anyamal tantei kiruminzoo. Really good magical girl anime, very much enjoying it. But as someone used to my 12 episode one cour anime, 50 episodes of highly episodic slice of life can be pretty slow to get through.
I'm watching Nichijou. It's exactly my humour and I wish there were more episodes. Also the drawing style is really cute and sometimes funny, just as everything else about the show.
I'm watching Sonny Boy. It's great so far, getting Masaaki Yuasa vibes
The currently airing Kankin Kuiki Level X - half length episodes, suspense and horror with a side character I really like
As of yesterday, I started watching Yuyushiki. It's a really nice CGDCT type of show, and I like it. However, I'm confused how it's pronounced. In the short breaks in the middle of it, they always say it, but they don't say the i, that comes after the sh ("Yuyushki"). Maybe I'm just overhearing it, but this always confuses me.
>>59
In 東京弁 (Tokyo dialect) it's pretty common to drop the final vovel of a word so yuyushiki can quickly become yuyushk. As for when it's shki instead of shiki, し (shi) often becomes Sh when there's a hard sound like tsu 質問 or ki 四季 after, but I don't think there's a hard rule for it.
Are you enjoying the show? I just finished all the Non Non Biyori seasons (cute and relaxing rural life show) and started Gakkou Gurashi.
>>60
I finished Gakku Gurashi. Very fun slice of life show.
Just download it and enjoy the show. If you must know what it's about, there's a few cute girls living at school as part of club activities. I'd actually recommend you don't know more than that, makes it more exciting. ☆（ゝω・）

Thanks for the explanation. Yes, I really like the show. I'm at 10 out 12 episodes right now and will probably finish the show this evening. In particular the fact that there are virtually no male characters (except for the god of blessing), is weirdly comforting, however as a minor nitpick, I didn't understand the scene where the girls tried to make their teacher cry, it just seemed out out character and unfitting. but maybe
I’m about halfway through Kamichu. It’s a sweet little show all but spoilt by poor pacing and one or two bad episodes, like the one where the entire episode is just Yurie lying around in bed. There is a real warmth to the characters and the retro visual aesthetic is pretty. The core message is positive but not hamfisted.
Nadesico isn't better than some of the better Gundam series but it sure is a lot better than Evangeshition.
>>52
Please all of you are wrong! LOTGH is anime's Evangellion. I wish Gundam died and it lived!
Patlabor or death.
>>53
LOTGH is bullshit. The battles don't make any sense.
>>55
Star Wars is better than LOTGH. I hate to say it but it’s true.
>>59
Warhammer 40,000 is anglo garbage made for homosexuals and nerds
This thread sucks. Just like Evangelion.

I do enjoy the picture of her where she has an enormous peepee yes
Post about something that you want to watch/read/play later on but too busy to right now.
I want to watch Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation at some point. Isekai fantasy, lewd and well drawn, and pretty fun to boot. Watched 3 episodes so far.
Kaiba by Masaaki Yuasa - I loved all his yojouhan/tatami galaxy stuff, and this seems similarly artsy
I've been meaning to watch Skull Man, Sunday Without God, Heybot, and Monkey Typhoon when I get the chance.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_Game_(film)
Also everything by that studio that made Yosuga no Sora anime.
Visual novels:
Anime:
there's so many
if I had to pick one from each category, I'd like to watch ojamajo doremi, read one piece, and play sakura no uta.
>>7
you should absolutely watch Doremi, it's great
it definitely is something you should do over a while though
like, putting one or two episodes on a day would get you through it at a reasonable pace, it's kinda rough to marathon (I tried, humans were not meant to take in that much Doremi in a day)
is like a japanese second life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTRU_4B-IoE&ab_channel=ソバルト%2FSoVault
My favorite Manga is Death Note.
What's yours?

Consider having an opinion of your own and not following popular teenage culture.
Melancholia by Dowman Sayman
it's an anthology like his other work, Nickelodeon (which is also really good but maybe should be read before) and they connect to eachother, along with his other work Voynich Hotel
Unlike nickelodeon however, all the short stories connect at the end which is a trope I like
His manga are always weird, surreal, and occasionally disturbing which i really like. For the same reason I'm also a big fan of:
I really like Battle Angel. Love that scrap heap 3rd world aesthetic. But Ranma 1/2 has to be my favourite manga.
>>16
Lain is popular with teens? Since when? Also, it’s not a manga.
some stuff that hasn't been listed
Blade of the Immortal

Definitively Nichijou. It always cheers me up when I read it and it has, in my opinion, a cute drawing style.
Why does all anime look the same now? What happened? They all look so similar to one another these days. It's incredibly dull and boring. They all use the same color palate, the same art style, thin lines, all the characters look identical, the shading and tone is the same and then there's all the choppiness and framerate issues which lead to general ugliness. It's like they sink the entire budget into visual set pieces.
It probably costs less to stick to one style.
Most of the more generic anime from the mid 2000s looks pretty much all the same too. I think that style looks better, but I guess I am just becoming an old fart stuck in the past. Or it really just does take more time and effort to do it with the old techniques that made the style of the time. Stuff like Kanon, Air, Clannad, I really think that is the style to go with. It even looks decent on 360p. I still like new shows though, there's usually something I like in every season.
The framerate issues probably have to do with studios outsourcing work to the Philippines, China or South Korea. When you have animators spread out over multiple countries speaking different langauges choppinness and general ugliness is the result. It's a double edged sword really. The Philippine animators get to build expereience, but being used as cheap labor keeps them from producing their own high grade product. Anime also has to have a high turn over rate and they pump that shit out and whoever has to make it, Japanese or not, end up overworked and then their work sucks because they can't stop their hands from shaking.
To appeal to Americans anime has to look a certain way. So studios pump out the same “anime style” artwork which leads to less artistic diversity. More Americans consume anime than actual Japanese people so now they are the target audience. So its become an Asian minstrel show where people play into the stereotypes others have about them just to make money.
Hand drawn is dead. Everything is made by computers using engines and graphical tools that recycle the same components. Everything today is painfully stock.
>>3
I wonder how long those cheap labor sources have before Japanese studios just start using AI instead. Then everything will look the same and extra ugly.
>>6
They'll probably always use them. If AI will get rid of anyone it will be the Japanese animators. You'll have a handful of Japanese involved in the process, AI will do the heavy lifting, and they'll outsource the remaining human element to the cheap labor in foreign countries. The Japanese are adopting the Hollywood model of corporate exec dictated art and building huge endless content franchises. Give it decade and it will look exactly like Hollywood.
What >>4 said more or less, in tandem with:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_Japan
Generic marketable slop.
Most stuff produced in the 90s was also formulaic slop but there was more visual diversity back then at least. Probably because there were more studios with their own styles while today there are a handful of big corporations that have monopolized the industry. Formulaic slop happened when traditional cel animation was abandoned. Coincidence? I don’t think so. If you walk into a studio you’ll see most of the animators use the same tools and rely more on their tools than animators of the past and the bosses are slave drivers who want them to produce as many episodes fast as possible.
I've never read a light novel before, but I've become interested in reading one. Have you ever read a light novel? Did you enjoy? What's your favorite?
Boogiepop Series is really fun if you read it while listening to the songs that are referenced in the book
boogiepop? sounds like a song
Seconding Welcome to the NHK. If you're the sort of person who's browsed textboards a lot, it almost certainly hits home on a number of topics relating to old school "otaku" culture, depression, and addiction.
The worst LNs I ever read were Sword Art Online 1-3, when assured by my friend that the anime (which I had not, and still haven't watched) was garbage and the LNs were actually good. This was not the case - I will never get back the time spent on those novels.
My overall vibe was "reminiscent of [type-moon's] Nasu's work, but a lot worse", though I get that the series started as a fanfictiony web novel. Maybe this is par for the course for many LNs though and I'm being too harsh. I read the Haruhi LNs back in the day for validation about my pet theories on Kyon's abilities but they never came. It was good I guess - it's been too long to really think about it objectively. Perhaps a re-read is in order!
Welcome to the NHK isn't an LN!! It's just a novel.
>>10
that makes sense tbh
>>10
uh... what is the difference? Aren't light novels just regular novels but with animu stuff? (´･ω･`)
Whether something is a novel or light novel is determined solely by the publisher. It's like how if something is published by DC Comics it's going to be considered "superheroes" even if no one actually has superpowers (say, Batman vs the Joker.) Or in anime/manga, like how anything published in Shonen Jump is "shonen" even if it's romance or magical girl (genres usually associated with shoujo.)
Welcome to the NHK was published by Kadokawa Shoten, who are an LN publisher. Outside Japan it was published by Tokyopop who deal even more exclusively in LNs.
I just started reading boogiepop and can already tell it's gonna be amazing
