Oh yeah i meant to mention Dance Pantsed

I really dug this style, and when i heard the show was coming back full-time i thought that’s what it would look like. It was disappointing to learn that actually it’s Adventure Time-derived CN House Style ™ crossed with bad late PPG art 
I saw a few more eps of Gundam Reconquista in G because I had no internet and happened to have the eps on my comp. I remember watching the first two episodes way back when it first aired and being turned off at how it ran at like 100 miles per hour, things just happening like crazy, people just doing things with no context or consequence or pacing.
After watching 2 more episodes of it, I started entering a dreamlike state where all these things kept happening and it was weird and interesting and beautifully animated and now I’m kinda ok with it.
It’s like if Turn-A-Gundam was made now except the guys making it was super excited and wanted to pack like 200 cool world ideas per minute and also didn’t have an editor or story lead who knew about pacing. It’s an interesting kind of fever dream.
honestly this episode seems so hostile to transkids
but apparently the writers complain about millennials on twitter so I’m hardly surprised that they’re completely out of touch
man, i walked in on one episode and had a really good time (it had DEATHBALL and a bedazzled mech in the space of about ten minutes, i even liked the new VAs) but haven’t heard a single positive thing about the show since then. mannnn that sucks. i don’t have the heart to find out how bad that youtube clip is
also re new powerpuff: mojo jojo doesn’t talk fast and repeat himself throw it in the trash
gravity falls season 117 really fell off
You lied to my face Trigger
or did you
Kiznaiver is the best comedy this season, which is scary since the subject material is obviously dramatic in nature, but it seems to remember that it’s still a cartoon at the same time. I just want a show of these people punching each other and feeling all the pain
This dude totally looks like the masochistic one the fujoshi will latch onto.
22 minutes later
And how!
There’s a fujo in the group now?
I’m mostly serious, I’m only really paying attention to Nico and Tenga since they have all of the personality of the cast
I meant the audience!
I kept watching Lost Village with the (faint) hope that it could take a turn to a more “Flamenco” path, but now I think I only watch it to say “goddammit Lovepon!” to the monitor. Worst thing is, I am finding myself rooting for her now.
Luluco and JoJo are getting better week by week.
Oh, and hello there.
Lovepon is everyone’s idol. I saw some people on the Internet trying to say that The Lost Village was “a bad show” or “not a very deliberately-produced comedy,” and it made me very sad.
I’m watching more New Animes than I expected, but there’s kind of a huge gap between consistently great stuff like Jojo and the rest. Obviously I think Kumamiko has a fairly solid joke hit rate (even if they’ve been Leering a bit much), so I guess that rounds out my Top Three.
Yeah I’m still enjoying the fantasy Groundhog’s Day show a lot, and I like Boku no Hero Academia or whatever it’s called quite a bit as well. Other shows I’m less keen on, I already dropped Twin Star Exorcists two episodes in.
Ajin is very deliberately paced for binge-watching on Netflix. Couple neat scenes, particularly with the assault by the Man In The Hat. Wasted potential in having a mostly unlikable cast; they jettison interesting people pretty quickly and only the assistant to the guy in charge of Ajin countermeasures has been decent (though she’s showing signs of being turned on by humiliation and her professional relationship fuels that because it’s so abusive which makes me rather uncomfortable). Also agents being dumb because the plot demands it makes the last couple episodes so weak.
Oh and it cliffhangers at the end of the season. World is explained pretty well but nothing is accomplished; plot progress remains at the same place it was at the end of the first episode except with an explicit threat to Japan rather than implied.
so I recently watched the Wander Over Yonder episode “The Cartoon” (wonderful, although it really wears out the budget animation joked)
is there a modern (21st century) original series that mimics/develops/pays tribute to this kind of garish, spectacular sci-fantasy? Eastern or Western, doesn’t matter, although an anime that is a homage to such works could be a treat.
I know about 2002 He-Man and nu-Thundercats, and I’ll take a peek at whatever, but I’m particularly looking for things that aren’t inextricably tied to a toy line.
Nothing really holds a candle to how out-there He-Man and Thundarr were, even today.
I would say Legend of Korra has a lot of fantastical elements, in a semi-historic setting, with a similar focus on likable characters constantly getting into fights. If you haven’t seen it, the series is absolutely worth your time.
really tho the only real version of these in comparison would be like, adventure time which is growing increasingly kitschy
no western cartoons want to represent what they are without doing it half ironically
There have been a few good episodes of Adventure Time lately! Especially “Beyond the Grotto”.
Princess Allura is a brown elf? You have aroused my penis interest, Netflix
In cartoons that I’m not being a creepy asshole about, I did The Loud House, it’s a fun funny cartoon and I like the background work, a lot of which has this Sunday comic strip look to it. But then again, everything I like is terrible according to the internet (rest in peace Uncle Grandpa)
yesterday ep. of Ushio To Tora was great, it’s making some strange move for a shonen I wasn’t expecting Nagare to be really a traitor and dying, in most shonen they would be an ulterior motive or a plan, and now aparently we are going to have a 6 chapters long battle. this will be one hell of a ride.
