Television series faithfully adapted from source material are actually pretty shit on a fundamental level:

>The source material has to be long enough to draw a season out of it
>But this typically means it's too long, so it tends to end on a nonconclusive ending with season 2 never
>The source material was never designed to be a television series so the dramatic breaks between episodes and the pacing in general end up having to be weird
>They can only adapt things which have no sex scenes whatsoever, or so many sex scenes that they can cut out the non-sex scenes and make it purely about the sex scenes. They can show sex scenes here and there in comic books, but not on television it seems

So it mostly ends up being this long running, often highly episodic stuff with season 2 never. They should either be very liberal with their adaptations or just create original productions meant for television. Lain was good, picrel isn't.

The thing I hate the most about faithful adaptions is the dialogue. Too much exposition. Anime studios refuse to tone down the dialogues so the characters say everything they are feeling, usually in heqd monologues.
>>
>>284615625
Well, that's just agreeing with me that it's often shit and that original productions are typically better.

>>284615960
Anon, it was extended from a one-shot and it shows.
It's one of those sequelitus “love “““stories”””" that's just made up as it goes along with no plausible romantic development.

Somehow, KoiKimo just happened to have the exact right length for a single reason and actually concluded in a satisfactory way with the right pacing, but that's rare.

>>284615980
This too, especially when it comes from books or visual novels. These characters provide far too much exposition in their lines which isn't necessary on television or even in strips and quite frankly is also a weird writing style in books. It should be described more by an omniscient narrator.
>>
>>284616293
>Anon, it was extended
The extended parts were cute and funny.
>from a one-shot and it shows.
You said being faithful to an original plot isn't important.
>It's one of those sequelitus “love “““stories”””" that's just made up as it goes along with no plausible romantic development.
Anime is great when it's made up as it goes along. For example. The last good anime was Kokkuri-san.

>It is cute and funny, I watch brainless plotless dreck with implausible characters because it's cute and funny.

The ultimate state of the target audience for this kind of stuff for whom fiction has basically become nothing but cope and comfort in their miserable lives.

How do you feel about Hinako having her first kissu stolen by a stinky sea hag?

I'd like to see her return to playing Hinako's aunt. Hinako did seem to actually enjoy her company, and they could both use family.
>>
>>284605392
>>284605804
>>284606766
If you think this is a return to the status quo then you're not thinking.

It re-establishes the premise and the tragedy and stakes/tension, but the pledge for Hinako to be eaten is recontextualized and the power dynamics are now flipped: Shiori is now the one trapped rather then Hinako, and Shiori and Hinako are also now both on the same page in terms of knowledge and are more emotionally honest with each other

I guess if you're an anime-only and you only have this one episode to go off of that may not be totally apparent and it may seem like a regression, but it's not and the status quo of their relationship is very different from now on

The promise could work like being put under a geas. You're free to decide when and how to go about your quest, but the longer you spend not actively it, the more you'll wither and waste away.

Just want to rephrase something, when I say "not true" I mean the way you are trying to paraphrase it, but making them feel they have a chance to take them down harder is literally Light plan, and is handled pretty well.
