What went wrong, Cinemaphile?
it does get a little masturbatory later but I agree conceptually is very interesting.
why do people post anime on Cinemaphile are you scared of Cinemaphile?
They are afraid of Cinemaphile. Imagine someone posting about TV and Film on Cinemaphile; That's what anime trannies are doing when they post it on Cinemaphile. Every time I visit Cinemaphile, it looks like old Cinemaphile to me, and it probably scares the shit out of normalBlack folk. That pretty much explains why Cinemaphile is so fricking horrible.
Anyway, I'll be here filtering every thread on the board, while you guys keep making threads that get filtered. Fricking 100% npc userbase moment.
You are a dumbass, Cinemaphile mods are aggressive and will ban you for any sort of off model thread. The board runs on unofficial generals and the sometimesl literal troony discord groomer posting about their favorite manga with a femboy. Its hell on earth if you don't care to fit in the generals and discuss the same shit every day.
This
I made a thread a while ago shitting on Haruhi and got a ban lol
>made a thread a while ago shitting on Haruhi and got a ban
What the... Jannies are based???
this
they 'banned' generals and yet now still has the same ones as ever, they just don't have titles. Cinemaphile threads are either
>generals
>the same isekai/shounenshit threads over and over
>remember [10 year old really popular] show
>the rare actually good/interesting thread
that's it. and most of the interesting threads die way too soon because the board is FULL of moronic dogshit constantly
>because the board is FULL of moronic dogshit constantly
WE DO THE SHITTY THREADS SEGMENT
GOT IT?
The "general" ban was purely to ban the DJT threads. I was there. Every other crappy general was back up without "general" in the name within 2 days, DJT was moved to Cinemaphile, where it became flag autism, and /jp/, where it became the plaything of a couple of unfunny morons who reply to every post with garbage in all lowercase.
A mod just got really mad that people were learning Japanese and weren't reading his buddy's subtitles anymore.
yeah i'm aware, i used to go on the Cinemaphile and Cinemaphile djt threads
i will say djt was full of morons but so is every thread. djt just got cracked down on wayyyyyyy more
>dragon ball threads
>one piece threads
>naruto threads
Cinemaphile isn't even like old Cinemaphile
They are especially toxic (as is any close knit community on the internet).
>Cinemaphile is like old Cinemaphile
You can be serious, do you mean it looks like old Cinemaphile because it's full of anime images or the threads?
because Cinemaphile is terrible for anime discussion
i don't see a discussion here
Cinemaphile still has better anime discussion. Cinemaphile is just /waifu/ and a bunch of generalgays/actual trannies.
>noooo you can't just talk about normalgay anime it has to be some obscure 1990s slice of life moe shit
>165xx
shut the frick up you brown covid lockdown tourist. stay on Cinemaphile with the rest of thr shitskin redditors
Any person who posts frogs in any context doesn't know the meaning of the phrase "good discussion", let alone is capable of having one.
>NOOOOO YOU FRICKING CHUD PEPE THE FROG IS A HATE SYMBOL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Back to your troony /leftypol/ discord, bro.

The OP post implies discussion about the price of manga in murica and his "girlfriend" getting into manga. It has nothing to do with a specific anime or manga.
>blogpost
>get banned
NO WAY!
Everyone on Cinemaphile is a total prick with no sense of humor. You also get banned for nearly everything.
>You also get banned for nearly everything.
Translation: you get banned for posting threads with idiotic template comments like "what did he mean by this" "xsisters, our response", "thoughts on x", "what went wrong" etc.
Agreed. I got banned for using The language of the REN. I was “renny ree snd renny roo. Coo coo swing it swing it”ing and they banned me for speaking gibberish.
Funny how that rule was moot's original stand against MSN Messenger speak shitting up his website but it's not enforced against zoomershit and now half the replies are unironically zoomers going fr fr ongong rizz to bullshit which is exactly what the rule was meant to suppress
a good fantasy doesn't need to resort to bullshit. I like frieren (minus the doujin rule), but its honestly what a good fantasy show should have at times.
Cinemaphile is literally a shithole at this point populated by your local SEA's and mexicans in generals that cry when you tell them CSM is a shitty show.
Cinemaphile isn't great either but honestly Cinemaphile is fricking dogshit. At least on Cinemaphile you can shitpost in fun ways but Cinemaphile is both no fun allowed AND full of morons who spam 500000 threads about their favourite fotm shounen/isekai so you can't discuss anything actually good.
>Delicious in Dungeon
Just call it dungeon meshi Black person
I’m of the opinion that the boards themselves are actually too small. 10 pages isn’t enough to hold all the generals and seasonal shit. But let’s be real here, if you are on Cinemaphile at all. You’ve seen anime.
Yes and I've seen sports. Doesn't mean you need to spam your off topic bullshit here. You already have a board for tranime.
>isn’t enough to hold all
that's the point
>Make anime thread on Cinemaphile
>300 posts and 27 images
>267 posts are variations of “(Girl) is for lewd, for handholding, not for lewd, I LOVE (girl), she’s pure, (girl) is for rape”
>Rest of the posts complaining shounen/isekai/yuri even if the show in the OP is none of those things
Holy frick that whole board needs to be nuked from orbit
>NOOOOOOO YOU JUST CAN'T POST JAPANESE TV SHOWS ON Cinemaphile
Unless its a niche series that gets a thread every week or so (usually 20 or so people keeping it alive), then its not a good place to discuss anime. It definetly isn't a good place to discuss manga either. You also have to go to /wsr/ to get recommendations or else you get banned. I don't know if there is some history with spammers constantly asking that or something, but seems like a goofy rule imo. There is probably a reason for it.
I do give Cinemaphile credit for at least being strict on rules which helps stop frogposting and wojacks. More boards should be like that in regards to Cinemaphile.
They've claimed for a decade+ there's so such thing as Mod specific boards but there obviously is because of these examples. Cinemaphile is moderated completely differently than the rest of the site, more like resetera honestly. The Cinemaphile mod is some libcuck that heckin' hates racism because if you write Black person or even soft r homie in any post he *will* give you a global ban when he sees it. Cinemaphile has a thing where you will get banned for insulting India, not any other country just India.
Cinemaphile is filled with absolute morons at this point after about a decade of atrocious moderation. Wall to wall shounen slop threads for pajeets to post in. Ultimately the issue was really CR becoming popular which removed the gatekeeping step of having to use a scary torrent tool, but Cinemaphile is a fricking shell.
Meanwhile Cinemaphile is just as shit as it's always been.
/tv/'s anime threads are quite a bit better than Cinemaphile's now
also, Cinemaphile as a board died long ago. it is a true shadow of itself. i browsed it for 10 years straight but have hardly gone back in the last 5
Went to shit after tomochan ended
Every board is terrible at discussing things that are actually on topic for it and great at discussing off-topic things
/misc/ has the worst political debate but some great literature and historical discussions
Cinemaphile has shit taste in music but terrific opinions on video games
Cinemaphile can't talk about science, but they frequently have keen political insights
Cinemaphile can't have productive discussions about movies, but has good discussions about anime and cartoons
etc
The 2nd statements about those boards might be right but the 1st ones are wrong.
Name the last time you saw an actually competent discussion about literature on Cinemaphile or a productive political debate on /misc/, etc.
on Cinemaphile it was a thread about post-Tolkien fantasy
on /misc/ it was a thread about conservatives in general and turned into a discussion about Hoppe libertarianism
/misc/ is flooded with shit so that's an extreme example but most interest boards have people interested in the topic.
>all these cope responses
Yeah they're scared to post on Cinemaphile but in this case it's more of trying to feel "superior" over anons on a board that is dedicated to live shows/movies and not Japanese cartoons
You think it's an ironic shitpost but given the fact that do "Japan is good at (x) than da westerners" threads on every board outside of Cinemaphile it's more of a coping/need of validation like how a queer at a party has to let everyone know they're gay or how someone on twitter has those things in their bio that say they're "xit/xat/xibidydooda" that attacks a media they don't like because it doesn't cater to them
That what OPs post are, thinking it's shitpost but it's just OPs subconscious hungry for validation until they troon out
I think it's mostly because there's very little new discussion on Cinemaphile - everything that could be said about a particular show has been said, and people are desperate to hear fresh takes and opinions.
Looks like trannime to me
This is the most overrated anime in a very long time. Insert a bit of saccharine "character building" and everyone loses their shit. It's a decent show but frick me.
>character building
Something Western shows of the last 10-15 years just seem to completely lack.
Character building is irrelevant if all the character endings are just 'lol i guess none of that mattered anyway'
Grrm's nihilism sucks
if youve actually read grrm you have feelings for most of his characters, i feel nothing for pretty much every character in frieren they have no personality
Game of Thrones is 13 years old so it's not really a good defense of modern television.
anime has been just soap operas but for zoomers and millennials for a while now. shit wasn't gatekept well enough
the average anime (or average story telling in general) shits all over modern western slop

I never see you posting this shit in the Hazbin Hotel threads. Curious.

Her feelings were hurt so badly by being told to kill herself that she actually did it.
I hope you remember just how vulnerable some people can be next time you feel like casually telling someone online to kill themselves as a joke.

The scale thing she is holding is related to her spell, which when cast measures the total mana of the caster and the target. Whoever has more mana at the time the spell is cast has complete control over the person who lost. The demon girl lost and the elf told her to cut her head off.
Mind control frickery.
Doesnt even show the fricking decapitation, what kinda fricking homosexual anime is this. Does it even have fricking breasts or even pantyshots? Frick modern anime is fricking absolute dogshit. No fricking violence and no fricking nudity. have a nice day anyone who watches this slop.
moronic shit.
It's because they're not run by israelites.
That´s kind of normal for Japan though. They are better after all. Always have been.

American animation is so much more superior than Japanese. Anime might have cool scenery and character design, but if you're comparing just pure technical skills of animation Americans are so much better. Even shit like Ed Edd n Eddy made most anime look like something you'd see on Newgrounds.
American animation is completely dead for years. Disney movies with good animation had insane budgets and rarely made them back. While TV shows had ugly as shit simplified style that's easier to animate but disgusting to look at.
There is a reason why anime became a 40 billion $ industry and keeps growing every year.
That looks like shit
The animation in anime hasn't been good since the mid 1990s. They simply don't have the budget to do good animation since their economy collapsed.
It's all CGI rubbish now.
I watched a french animated flick recently called the illusionist and it has better animation than anything japan has ever done.
>They simply don't have the budget to do good animation since their economy collapsed.
>It's all CGI rubbish now.
it's not bugdet, it's skill.
it's both
Average TV anime today looks 10x better than average anime 20 years ago. People forgot how much stills and reused animation was the norm.
>b-but muh Disney movies!
Nips made Akira or Redline too. The problem is it's much less profitable than simply having good enough animation. 99% of people don't give a frick about how super amazing animation is.
What you posted is ugly as frick.
Modern anime is literally
>Girl opens her arms and gets covered in random glowing kanji while a 13 year old kid who's a demon hunter holds a giant sword with purple flames on it while a chibi deer person chants to keep a nymph in a bottle alive
That sounds badass, would watch
>Average TV anime today looks 10x better than average anime 20 years ago
subjective

>Average TV anime today looks 10x better than average anime 20 years ago
Line count is up in modern television anime like never before but they accomplish that by outsourcing to remote workers and increasing use of both 3d and 2d cgi that's all over your example. Shows that would have had 4 key animators per episode in the 90's or 8 in the 00's have over a dozen now. There's several colorists, a couple dedicated 3d cg animators, some of these teleworker animators are working on paper and others working on tablets and making liberal use of various digital drawing automations. There's vfx composition specialists on top of the colorists. These days it's not even unheard of for episodes to have more than one animation director so the traditional force for compositional competency between all these contributors is broken.
The resultant shows look like what they are, they've been built by committee. More individual parts than ever before but no holistic direction.
The problem is pretty simple, not enough animators to go around, and not a lot of people go into the profession because it's a dead end job that uses graduates until they break, and then obviously they're worthless. There was upward mobility in the 80s and 90s, now the zoomers know they're just going to eat cup ramen until they die.
So everything got outsourced to the asiatics, who delivered mediocre work but eventually started getting too expensive, so now everything is being outsourced to the Chinese, who constantly lie about their production progress so shows are getting constant delays where they just show a re-run or three halfway through, or the Indians who can't draw to save their lives. Honestly, I'd rather the industry move to fricking dogshit in-house CG. Kemono Friends had the animation budget of a happy meal.
Anime is very story oriented. American animation is all slice of life/comedy. Anime just isn't very funny, that's a big difference between the two
hulot, you're animated now, how do you feel about it?!
You are actually moronic. It's all about budget. Anime is so insanely profitable because it keeps the balance between animation quality and budget.
There is no fricking reason to make insanely well animated crap only to lose money.
Handrawn cel animation became nonviable in the 90s because all the south korean slaves (actual real slaves) everyone, east and west, were discovered and released.
Cell animation is literally an impossible craft to do on any scale when you have to pay animators.
basically this, there's another thread in the catalog that has a similar message
"An anime animator in 1990 could afford all this" etc, now there's not the same initiative
The truth is only sakuga gays care. Story and characters are 100x more important.
There were good stories and characters decades ago..I think with anime being a visual medium and all you want a healthy mix of stuff that's nice to look at as well nice writing..I think not just in anime but western TV/movies/cartoons they're all suffering from a bit of burnout and derivativeness. Just as an example if look to modern shonen they are really going for the 1 season a year sakuga thing instead of weekly release shows, minus a few old ones that are still running
Making anime 'look' the way it did in the 80s and early 90s was a result of essentially infinite budgets by an economy expanding unrealistically fast at that time and corporations had so much money they did not know what to do with that many of them commissioned those gorgeous anime series as vanity projects to demonstrate how powerful their brand was. Most of the time the show had absolutely nothing to do with the company that paid for it and calling it brand advertising is being generous. That's how a large share of them were ever made by someone hiring the best and telling them what to make for them without regard to cost. Those conditions have never existed since.
Could you name a couple of examples of shows made under these conditions?
all the pioneer OVAs
Modern TV anime have higher budgets now than ever before.
Damn I wonder if 40 years of expansionary monetary policy has anything to do with the nominal value of production being different now. Fricking twat.
>studios said that production orders have continued to increase and that the number
of projects is more than the number of production studios available, so production costs continue to rise.
>Additionally, since there is a shortage in production and creation staff, it is very difficult to create an anime production system. The standards required for anime production are steadily growing, which is a primary factor in the increase in cost
The studios have their own bias (crying about boo hoo paying people) but they'll admit when asked that the old standard production system for anime is essentially in the process of being thrown out the window for the last 15 years.
It's not simply the foreigners. The domestic Japanese animators have become telecommuters quite a lot too.
japan is such a shit hole
Has there ever been an anime with "grounded" fights?
Not even necessarily realistic, but something that doesn't feel absurd
Yes? It seems kind of ridiculous to ask that question while quoting a quip where a demon is fighting in a fantasy world though.
Yes plenty. Not everything is fantasy and magic.
With swords? I really can't think of one.
LotGH gets brought up here often. It had grounded melee fights when it happens I guess but they are at times on hovercrafts and that kind of shit.
The American equivalent of this would be Talespin with Kitt flying some sort of wicked trick on his airfoil and making it back to Baloo.
lol the cope
Disney will use a LOT of frames and some people think this is more technical or talented
If you look at the good actions scenes from anime there isnt a western animator alive that could do them and make them look/feel as good
this makes the weeb recoil in disgust
its nice, nothing amazing, you can find lots of anime doing stuff like this
but no western animation can do a big action scene like japan

When you spend so many words hating on shonentrash it just confirms people's suspicion that you don't actually bother watching decent anime. It's like writing ten paragraphs on why MLP is bad and therefore all American animation is
I think you're trying to say something
>does everything better than any fantasy show/movie
Is it even worse than Kimetsu No yaiba? I watched the first 2 episodes and the lack of subtlety annoyed me. I could find interesting the theme of someone immortal experiencing being left alone after everyone close to her died, but they way they do it was for like 10 year olds
Is this your first Anime? There're a handful of them that aren't ham-fisted, the rest lack any subtlety and beat you over the head with what they're trying to show. Watch Nana if you want something better, although it's also melodramatic, it does it best.
I've read Berserk and Good Night, Punpun and watched the full metal alchemist and attack on titan anime.
Punpun and early Berserk are great. FMA is solid but overrated, and AoT is shounen slop.
This show is overrated garbage
Delicious in Dungeon is superior in every way, including the concept of a long lived life and the fears of everyone you've ever known and loved fading away as you continue to exist.
Basically this, though this homie might not agree with me on DiD, we can agree this show has the subtly of a semi truck driving through a brick wall. It's an interesting concept but the show does absolutely nothing with it.
Frick you homosexual, Punpun is also overrated trash, FMA (2003) is unironically a fricking masterpiece. Berserk deserves it's praise and AoT is also trash agreed but you're still a homosexual.
>Delicious in Dungeon is superior in every way
Both are good but Frieren is way better.
Nah, Punpun is great, FMA (2003) was better than brotherhood but not by much and its still overall just a good show, not great. Berserk peaked at Golden Age arc, Conviction was still good, but then it went to shit and you're moronic if you don't think so. Basically I'm right, you're wrong.
>This show is overrated garbage
Its literally not. Your xeno-cooking show is not in the same league.
>I could find interesting the theme of someone immortal experiencing being left alone after everyone close to her died
I think I've seen lots of stuff about vampires or other immortals lean into that heavily. Frieren's struggle is even getting close to normal people in the first place. The show's inciting incident is someone who she likes and wants to get to know better dying of old age before she bothers to spend time with him.
That's the problem I have with anime. So many end up playing to your typical anime tropes.
Thought Demon Slayer started off well when it took itself seriously but they inevitably bring in your typical shonen characters as well as exaggerated speech and faces for humour. Guess that's just a manga/anime thing you should expect but I never really got the appeal.

It has power level wanking. The only thing missing is the character saying that she has 9999 mana pool
So has He-Man, but power level "wanking" has been a thing since the age of mythology. Why do you think people can talk about every form of modern sport?
She's a 1000 years old elf. Is Gandalf a mary sue too?
is this actually good? 90% of what i've seen is people saying they want to frick the elf

But it's not a good fantasy show? It's explicitly an analysis/deconstruction of the genre.
Not only has the fantasy show come and gone in universe but you are required to understand western/japanese fantasy 'canon' to 'get it'.
I'll give the author props they took a 3am 'bro what if...' weed thought with the boys and turned it into a fun reflective episodic deconstructive piece, with some occasionally pretty salient points.
I argue, however, that any show that requires you to understand a genre to be good can never be better than actual important pieces of the genre. OPM can't be better than other battle shonen, for example, because without them OPM can't exist.

Frieren: Beyond Journey's End
looks like slop
In the past, Westerners used to call Japanese anime ``Japanimation'' to distinguish it from their own cartoons.
Nowadays, Western cartoons are promoted as "Western anime".
Western cartoons barely even exist anymore.
The west is infested with wokies and cultural marxists who view media only as an avenue to deconstruct and attack traditional norms, aesthetics, and social codes. Accordingly, the west is no longer capable of producing art of any given genre that is earnest and respectful of its conventions.
This show is literally a deconstruction of japanese 'western' fantasy, have you watched it?
Purple hair has a bullshitonium artifact that judges souls based on their mana, the winner can control the other. In terms of the episode, it's used as a framing device to show an innate weakness of demons' social dawrinistic cultural outlook and to show the elf chick is a gigachad.
The purple-haired demon was a moron for using it regardless of the above because she hadn't exhausted her other options yet.

>This show is literally a deconstruction of japanese 'western' fantasy, have you watched it?
Only in the colloquial sense, not the the post-modernist philosophical sense.
Well yeah, because the show isn't a huge steaming turd.
>Demons are inherently self-destructive, inferior specimens that are best avoided rather than courted
As things should be.
>It's Woke's fault!
It's strange that this conclusion has come when the topic of discussion is a comparison with an anime with a female protagonist.
holy shit you are a fricking moron
>Go see Cinemaphile
>There are 3 frieren threads.
You got banned because you're an annoying person.
I don't think the setting is one of that show's strengths, and I don't think it's that important. The only essential part is that Frieren is very long-lived. If you stripped out all of the western fantasy flavor, and replaced it with eastern fantasy flavor, it probably wouldn't affect the way people respond to the story.
The novel and interesting part is the observation that an immortal (or long-lived whatever) could value time so little that they might just waste basically all of it. Frieren learning to stop wasting time and spend it building relationships and doing other things she wants to do is something that I think resonates with an anime-watching crowd.
Why is this the highest rate anime show of all time?
pokemon
>sharty underage Black folk still seething about Cinemaphile
List 20 anime every single time you post, it should be the captch/a/. At first gays will google titles and then it'll become annoying and not worth the trouble so only those who can name 20 anime off the top of their heads at any moment will remain.
Would just post the same 20 every time
I wouldn't be able to remember the same 20 everytime.
Joshiraku, monogatari, mushishi, cardcaptor, baccano, afro samurai, kaiba, fractale, fuujin monogatari, basilisks, aria, kamichu, hyouge mono, denpa onna, haibane renemei, samurai champloo, ping pong, nichijou, zetsubou sensei, mononoke, lucky star, is it 20 yet?
20 was a ridiculously low joke number but man. Sorry Cinemaphile

thats true, boring as frick, i didnt get past few episodes
but pluto has decency to be short, fast and actually go from plot tread to plot thread
yeah, but go figure, it didnt devolve into turnament arcs and dragon ball power levels
did frieren unlock gear 5 yet? or does it come later?
king
Lodoss is my favorite isekai
organizations
This isn't true
>>no name european "kingdom" with a no name "king", and that kingdom covers the entire planet
Also isn't true
>>mmo magic system
I never played any MMOs so I don't know what you mean, BUT I've read enough garbage with actual video game magic systems to know Frieren doesn't have one.
>supposed to be generic
cool ...
also go tell me how many kingdoms are in this world, what is the kingdom called, who rules it, and how can a kingdom not be in charge of its own northen lands
dont use manga knowledge, no idea if its over or not, dont care, just tell me what worldbuilding is in a full season length show
I'll answer when you tell me what Gondor's tax system looked like.
local landed nobility and barons collect tribute from the peasants and pay tribute to their duke, the duke pays tribute to the king. Throughout the world for all periods of time this has been the way, the only change a small variance in the number of steps and what the titles were called.
I don't know why george rail road conductor martin thinks this isn't something easily guessed and not worth mentionioning. Especially when it detracts from the story by being irrelevant filler
Frick off, the world structure is important part of the story instead we have "they travel north", "we have to pass the border to ... its a story for another time", "the king" in the "capital" the "kingdom™"
The story is all about them traveling the path of heroes, yet we are given random city names with no context on where anything is and yet there are constant references to cities with no names and regions that we dont know where they are
What fricking kingdom, are we there yet? no? are we close? yes? no? she says it will take 10 years ... why? we already skipped most of it by not staying in the cities the original party did, how the frick can they still be traveling for years?
LOTR actually names their regions, we know the goal, where we start and when we visit a city thats imporant it gets a name so when the plot gets back to it we know where the frick we are, there is a sense of progression
This show fails to establish the bare minimum of worldbuilding
The regions have names, the kingdoms have names, the cities have names.
The difference is the focus of the media:
The point of LotR is the great big dramatic heroic saga of the ages;
The point of this show is 'what happens after the saga'.
Sometimes in media, what happens doesn't matter strictly, sometimes the why and how is the focus.
>The point of this show is 'what happens after the saga'.
Jesus what a void of creativity
Every fantasy anime is set "10 years after the Great War" and this is notes in every exposition dump again
>After the Saga
Nope, they're already taking that back in the manga, and establishing time travelling chsrscters. Prepare for an "epic war spanning multiple time periods" arch.
More than one kingdom features in the fricking first episode.
Also, it doesn't matter if information comes from the show or the manga or the fricking wiki you were just factually incorrect, there is more than one kingdom in the setting, It's a really weird hill to die on.
Also, yes, the world is in a sense supposed to be intentionally generic, because the thrust of the show is the character study and the genre deconstruction, the plot itself is just a tool to facilitate those.
>Erm, you can't say this cologne smells bad because Eau de Turd is SUPPOSED to smell like shit.
You're entitled to your opinion. You also shouldn't be surprised to get pushback/your opinion carries less weight when you make provably false statements and clearly are missing the 'point' of the show.
Don't get me wrong she how is over-hyped, it's a great character study and it had some smart stuff to say about the genre. But the idea 'Bro the story is what happens AFTER the story' is stretching thin even now and when it inevitably gets more seasons due to its popularity the idea's going to run out of steam.
NTA
>it has every single isekai trope
Because soulless isekai are all aping Japanese interpretation of 'DnD western fantasy', fantasy isn't copying isekai that makes no sense.
>demon king
>adventuring organizations
The world is meant to be generic to an extent because the whole point is 'what happens to the elf after the generic fantasy story ended?'
> no-name european "kingdom" with a no name "king", and that kingdom covers the entire planet
Incorrect.
>mmo magic system
Also incorrect.
>"every single isekai trope"
>proceeds to describe Dragon Quest
lol ya don't even know what you're arguing about huh?
There are almost no fights in this show.
Isekai is literally about a person getting sucked into a world that's not their own. If that isn't the premise it isn't an isekai. Harry Potter is more of an isekai than Frieren.
You fricking homosexuals piss me off. If fricking Mushishi had a single battle in one of it's episodes all you would ever do ever again is scream, "lol battle shonen WWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH POWERING UH Goku lol, hahha mememes." Fricking have a nice day
Is this guy trolling? I haven't watched it, but every single "western" fantasy styled anime has been the most videogame brainrot, generic, boring, written by a twelve year old horse shit I've ever seen. Like, below deviant art cringe compilation world building. The kind of shit produced by someone who has never read a book, watched a tv show, held a job, or left his room. Just piss bottled shitty mmos.
I was interested but this looks so ugly
the faces look stupid and they are expressionless most of the time
I think modern anime series can suffer from a lack of distinct style and character designs. So many of these seasonal shows for many years have come out and they all look so similar. Doesn't mean the shows are outright bad or anything, but a big entry barrier for any anime is whether you enjoy how it looks, personal biases and whatnot
>I was going about my usual business, watching my favorite anime, when the protagonist's became a green hyper realistic 3d model!
I think this is also where you realize that anime is largely made for young people, kids and teens..They'll watch whatever because it's "current and new" and that's not really a problem or anything, as like most of us we were happy to follow various random new things when we were younger
Imagine being 30+ y/o and b***hing about the quality of anime
In this case then kids of yesteryear had great anime made for them. They were spoiled and teens today are abused.
It's all about gemmys
They get occasional new gemmys still made today but they also have the option to go back and watch our top shelf gemmys from years gone by
What the frick. No wonder modern anime looks so soulless.
>does everything better than any fantasy show/movie since LotR
Because modern western media hates western values and basic storytelling
That's not a high bar, western fantasy TV/movies have been shit for over a decade now.
The only one that's not complete shit is the first 4 seasons of Game of Thrones.
It's unironically a worse work of art than Legend of the Seeker. Hell I'd rather watch the WoT show. Literally what is the appeal of Sneedren? It's sub RA-Salvatore levels of writing.
>Hell I'd rather watch the WoT show.
Oh god no, you'd have to be a fricking moron to say something like that.
That show is fricking unwatchable, genuinely worse than Lawd dem Rangz.
Reminder Cinemaphile will continue to be even worse than Cinemaphile as long as that Reddit powermod is allowed to be there who bans anyone who even dares criticize that garbage Korean slop

>literal FOTM
have a nice day.
Gomenasai Cinemaphile, my name is Ken-Sama.
I’m a 27 year old American Otaku (Anime fan for you gaijins). I draw Anime and Manga on my tablet, and spend my days perfecting my art and playing superior Japanese games. (Disgaea, Final Fantasy, Persona series)
I train with my Katana every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my sword license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.
I speak Japanese fluently, both Kanji and the Osaka dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Japanese history and their bushido code, which I follow 100%
When I get my Japanese visa, I am moving to Tokyo to attend a prestigious High School to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an animator for Studio Ghibli or a game designer!
I own several kimonos, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Japan, so I can fit in easier. I bow to my elders and seniors and speak Japanese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.
Wish me luck in Japan!
>tfw Ken-Sama was actually successful in fulfilling his dreams
We live in a cursed timeline
Those character designs are ugly af
Why is modern anime so lazy?
Cinemaphile seethes at Cinemaphile because we watch Kdramas now here.
anime is too mainstream
Nice satanic symbolism.
No wonder asiaticland is going downhill more and more.
Since there's no anime set in the real world, it's hard to compare fantasy in anime with anything even if it sometimes resembles our world.
Monster goes hard on the "irl" setting
It's inspired by jrpg, especially Dragon Quest like nearly all new Japanese fantasy, all isekai.
Aesthetically it looks nothing like traditional Western fantasy based on either Western novels or D&D.
But it's written "like" a western fantasy show instead of the modern isekai shlock that has been infesting the genera.
Haha you wish, it's more often:
>Some moron from Japan wins a darwin award and is sent to fantasy world for a second chance
>But is then immediately handheld by being given some OP superpower on par with a Shonen protag post-training because otherwise they're a moron who is incapable of survival
>Lol you see all this foreign nobody needed to be someone was to be gifted the ability to tell the laws of physics and character growth to frick themselves
>And since they came from an IRL location instead of this made-up fantasy land, they are by definition a believable character just like (you), don't you want to root for them
its still gay asiaticshit

Yes, that's the point. It takes place after the adventure of a party of heroes. Would you have preferred another show about a band of spunky adventurers questing to defeat not!Sauron?
dont worry bro there will be another demon king for them to defeat.

>fotm+OP main characters/minions+isekai
haha, weebs who watch this type of garbage are like capeshit watchers, deserve to be laugh at
Don't worry, they already jumped the shark in the manga by introducing time travel. Now we just wait for the story to become shit.
Plus they've already dropped the main "catch" of the manga - what happens to an immortal being after the Great Quest (TM) has been accomplished. Instead it's already heavily suggested that the Demons being defeated was a "keikaku dori". Plus the aforementioned time travel.
It's quickly turning into your usual battle manga with an overly complicated plotline.
>Instead it's already heavily suggested that the Demons being defeated was a "keikaku dori". Plus the aforementioned time travel.
Nips can't fricking help themselves. They refuse to stick to a simple plot and tell it well. Welllll what if time travel and the power of friendship and believing in the heart of the cards hard enough???? The only time one of them refuses to asspull the main driver of their narratives their native nip population hates it (Shinichirō Watanabe's shows first come to mind)
It's unfortunate that manga, LN and anime just tend to keep going way too long. Something like Fire Punch or Gunm (part 1) are the perfect length, but these days everything has to be 20+ volumes.
It really is a shame. I guess I can't blame them for trying to drag it out for money, but would be better to just start a new one. My Hero Academia is a good example. Vigilantes came in and finished in 15 volumes. MHA is still going on 39+ volumes with an ending declared like 3 years ago.
I just started watching Amagi Brilliant Park for the first time
is that lina from dota
Discussing anime is gay as frick. There's nothing to discuss. Just watch it and enjoy it and then move on. Anime discussion can just be boiled down to which character you want to stick your dick in, there is nothing else.
Western fantasy died when they started making them exclusively for bitter wine aunts and soiboys. Every fantasy show nowadays is just filled with sex scenes, leftist soi-politics, forced diversity and Marvel-tier quips. As a fantasy-gay your only options are either anime, which can be a little juvenile at times, or Pozflix-esque soi-fantasy with Black folk. Whether you like it or not, but Japan is the last bastion of entertainment for the White Man.

Boys. I'm okay without watching any anime. Movies were never big on fantasy anyway. At least not traditional Western fantasy.

The mangaka clearly intended a much, much shorter story.
It's one of those sad times when a property gets too big too fast, and so an editor insists it be dragged out until it dies.
Sometimes it can work out, Spy Family was obviously going to be a lot edgier until the editors toned it down.

Hollywood types don't want you to enjoy the things they make. They hate you.

Annoying garbage

It's a DQ rip-off. All the gamey bullshit didn't come from LotR, you subhuman.
where do you kids stream anime nowadays? cba with torrenting shit
There hasn't been a slow burn thing like this for a while, such as Mushi-shi or Kino no Tabi. But anune audiences literally refuse to watch "old anime," which is such a broad category that also includes shit like Naruto depending on the fan's age. If anyone likes Frieren, I recommend Mononoke (2007).
There are anime "fans" on this very site who've never watched Record of Lodoss War or Now and Then, Here and There, or Gundam, or Evangelion, or Yu Yu Hakusho, Lupin III or any other series made before the late-2000s... and that's unbelievably depressing.
the west has fallen
