Best animated seasonal I've watched in a long time, goddamn

Sayaka a cute too

I'll give an episode or two. I'm also not the biggest fan of the character designs.

If I had a coin for every anime about a shota samurai that tries to emulate the aesthetics and animation of series from the 90s and 00s I would have two coins, which is not much but it's weird that it happened twice.

Debating if I should continue it purely for the animation.

only cucks watch anime just for the animation

get bonked idiot

the manga is literally from the 80s

Camera is steady and you can make out what's going on in the fight

Did I time slip back into the past

Probably boomer director.

2 episodes

WAAAAH MC SO ANNOYING

What is character development? What a retarded post.

I know, but it's rare that a studio bothers to make an anime look good without resorting to ridiculous amounts of special effects or changing the aesthetics completely.

anime just needs to quit with the post processing and the bloom and have clear striking palettes again.
shit like VEG and Momentary Lily were cancer to look at, but even your usual seasonal these days looks blurry and washed out

I doubt the MC will stop being annoying.

I doubt

Stop doubting and read the manga then. Else, shut the fuck up and enjoy the ride.

idk anything about this series other than it being the previous work of Detective Conan's author

read the manga then

If I was interested in the manga, I would have read it years ago. Gosho's works have never interested me.

Then shut the fuck up. Your complaints are retarded. You sound like a Netflix turd who needs to watch everything in one, sweaty binge session. Go watch Moonrise if that's you.

something that rarely happens is what it is

Watch more anime

I came to this conclusion because I've watched more than you

Clearly you haven't. You can't make such bold claims and expect me to believe you without evidence? Burden of proof is on (you).

You don't have to believe me you just have to follow your own advice

no u

I accept your concession.

thanks for the bot reply

Not an argument; try again, loser.

Solo Leveling?
Dandadan?
Even Sakamoto Days looked better.
Actually I could keep going now that I think about it.

I tried watching this but that loli is too erotic, I need to keep pausing everytime she's on

watching shounen for 12 year old Japanese kids with snot running down their noses because the "animation looks nice"

watching things because it's "le mature" instead of entertaining

pic rel is (you)

When you are mature, mature things are entertaining.

When you're mature, you can enjoy both.

When you are mature whatever you do is mature by default and there's no reason to justify yourself
Now shut your phone and do your homework

Define "mature things" in the context of anime and manga.

When you are mature whatever you do is mature by default and there's no reason to justify yourself

No, just because you're a grownup watching My Little Pony or the Japanese equivalent doesn't make either of those shows for grownups. You're an adult watching a show for children.

Why is Saitama holding back? he can win this in one punch

The true question is, why only the worst shows get the best animation?

Characters that think and act like people instead of just embodying cliches like "I want to be the strongest" and "I want to fight strong people."
Storylines that have some level of complexity and don't rely entirely on cliches.
Writers and animators who use symbolism to give their works thematic depth.

Solo Leveling looks like shit

giwtwm

If I didn't know any better I'd think kids these days are actively trying not to enjoy things. Good thing I know these freaks aren't kids.

Is this actually worth a watch? I saw the cover art and assumed it was a kids show

Yeah, it's fun.

It is a kid's show, but if you're posting on Anon Babble in 2025 it's safe to assume that you're already well used to watching shows for children.

Times are changing anons, studios are realizing you don't have to have shaky and blurry cameras trying to emulate movies literally all the time, too much artificial lighting is legitimately cancer and actually solid and strong color pallets does wonders than trying to imitate irl movies and retarded muted or too overly bright color schemes.

I only came here to make a thread about devil may cry. I post on /a like once a year.

I wonder how many times you will copy paste your own post, kill yourself

Watch more anime that isn't shonenshit

What is that place I recognize it from a videogame.

I'm honestly relieved, for a while there it felt like flat digital colors and per scene color toning were just the way things were going to be going forward. A little confidence in the color pallet goes a long way.

posting four anime that aren't like the rest, two of which haven't even been released yet

Also Nige Jozu has terrible CGI in every other episode.

shota in loincloth with visible butt

Nice.

Nakamisedori, the famous traditional street tourist trap leading to Sensoji going from the Kaminarimon to the Hozomon. It's in Asakusa, in the Taito ward of Tokyo.

Baby steps anon, Elusive could have had both dogshit CGI and shitty cancerous bloom art.

Asakusa

Yeah, I remember now.
Probably gonna play that stage again on decemeber or january.

only thing unrealistic about this is sensouji not being absolutely flooded with gaikokujin

Ah, you think the 90's aesthetic is your ally? You merely adopted the 90's. I was born in it, molded by it.

Well it is adapted from an 80s manga.

Here you go
