>new PV>OP doesn't say new PV>instead it's just information no one cares aboutEbin
>>272236039Why does even anime have random black people in it now?
>Adult SwimIf this one is bad, they need to give up on making Anime forever.
>>272236510Made for Americans like Ninja Kamuy.
>>272236039>Adult SwimOh no...
>>272236510Why does it matter? Do you hate black people?
>>272236584___________________Yes.
>>272236510>NowGet the fucking out of here you piece of human waste.
http://sola-ent.comThis is the company producing stuff like that.
>>272236545>>272236583Being retarded on purpose?
>>272236682Adult Swim is producing this, you retard.Fucking look shit up before you talk.
>>272236584I'd much prefer my anime to be about Japanese people
>>272236510sbi
>>272236039>Action Director: Chad Stahelskii dont know about thisshouldnt you hire someone who's good at animating fight scenes?
>>272236792He can animate a fight scene actually. Before he made John Wick, he directed that Batman Arkham Orgins short with Deathstroke.
>>272236698>Does the same as Space dandy, they put the money so they broadcast it.>ONONON(retarded meme-spewing) they are producing it.How about not being a retard for a day?
>Watanabe is doing Watanabe thingsColor me suprised.
the colors are bland, but i dig the vibes
>>272236698Fucking subhuman, they put the money, like they do with R&M. They dont have an studio to produce shit.
>>272236877Not him as I posted here >>272236676 Sola is still a foreign company that is producing it.
>>272236877They paid for the show to exist, ergo they are producing it. Space Dandy was licensed, this is being produced by this. Producing =/= animating. Jason DeMarco will get a producer's credit.
>>272236510It's a Watanabe anime, he's had black people in his works since Cowboy Bebop.
>>272236929>Fucking subhuman, they put the moneyThat is literally what producing is, you retard.Producing =/= animating. If they were animating it, it would be handled by WB Animation Japan.
>>272236682>>272236877>>272236929>>272236952https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/adult-swim-greenlights-anime-legend-shinichiro-watanabes-new-series-lazarus?language_content_entity=en>Adult Swim is currently in production with acclaimed director Shinichirō Watanabe for a new Toonami original anime series “Lazarus.” Celebrated for his influential body of work that includes “Cowboy Bebop,” “Samurai Champloo” and “Kids on the Slope,” “Lazarus” marks Watanabe’s return to the sci-fi action genre with a globe-trotting thriller set in the near future.
>>272236039I don't even remember the last time Watanabe worked on anything good.I had hopes for Carole & Tuesday but it sucked ass, on top of refusing to be yuri.
>>272236970No, it's a Warner Bros. anime. All of them have random black people for no reason.
It's depressing that even if you use quality ingredients you still end up with slop
>>272237078Can't believe I sat through this entire thing when it aired. Crazy how something like Cop Craft or Maou-sama Retry had more staying power than a two cour Watanabe original. God this was bad.
Man I feel like mappa is really going to fuck this up. I have high hopes for watanabe and the OST but even in this PV the visuals look bad in some shots.
>>272236039I want to like it for Watanabe, anime-original and so on but it just looks generic and obnoxiously CG heavy.
>>272236039is this parkour kino?
Absolutely awful animation and sound design, zero sense of weight or energy when the protagonist moves. B-tier mappaslop whose only purpose is to milk money from retarded American producers who don't know any better
>>272241766Anymore words?
>>272241859>anymoreDumb ESL
>>272241907Are you retarded?
>>272241919Anymore and any more do not mean the same thing, you illiterate subhuman
>>272241964Anymore words though?
>>272241980>anymoreDumb ESL
>>272242110Words, anymore though?
>>272236833>Before he made John Wick, he directed that Batman Arkham Orgins short with Deathstroke.that was tim miller, anonthe director of the first deadpool moviechad stahelski was a stuntman before his directorial debut

>>272236510>NowGod, I fucking hate tourists.
>>272236970How does one make "wannabe animation" you fucking retard?
>>272236039Looks good and has one cute girl(drone user) unlike ninja kamui, will watch
>>272236039> SHINICHIRO WATANABE X NIKOLAS DRAPER-IVEYIf you had told me years ago that I would be forming a friendship with one of the best directors of our time, I would not believe you. Today I had the honor of treating Watanabe-San to lunch at @auntsetuncles in Brooklyn. One on one. Just us. Talking. For HOURS. >We discussed many cool things that I cannot disclose here (Obviously) and the future looks bright. I also found out there is a character in Lazarus named Doug that is *loosely* based off of me? Which is hilarious and awesome! This was by far one of the coolest days of my life and I excited for many more like it to come!>We’re so back.And black https://x.com/NikDraperIvey/status/1846698060950179952
>>272243833So? Watanabe likes black culture >>272243730
>>272236510Gundam had black people before you were born
>>272236676> BRIDGING THE BEST OF THE EAST AND THE WESTCool
Soon.His next anime will have a black protagonist this time for sure.https://www.instagram.com/p/C1sjtwexHwQ/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&img_index=1
>>272237078Space dandy is better than bebop.
>>272236714Like FMA, Berserk and LOTGH?so Japanese indeed.
>>272236909What are those things you are talking about?
It's trying too hard to be Cowboy Bebop and it's going to look pretty mid in comparison
>>272239237Getting out of prison is not easy…
>>272244361Space Dandy had like 6 really good episodes and like 20 garbage ones
>>272243584Only one black person?
>>272244412Just like everything Watanabe does...
>>272244447Bebop has zero good episodes.Dandy > bebop
>>272244474Bebop was trying too hard to be lupin the 3rd
>>272244494Watanabe doesn't even like Space Dandy, probably because it's a really goofy and stupid show
>>272244583He doesn't like bebop either then and prefers Gundam
>>272244688I like Dandy, it has a few really good episodes, but there are several very cringe episodes that ruin itBebop on the other hand has a very consistent atmosphere, lots of great episodes and no bad episodes that I can think of
>>272236792But doesn't modern anime suck because it was made by people only knowing anime? Here's your director with more diverse interests!
>>272244919> bad episodes that I can think ofEveryone because it all feels like filler
>>272236510>nowhow do you cope with the fact black people exist, anon?
>>272245287that's not how it works, anonim talking about techniques and animation styles that suits fight scenes and other action scenes
Lazarus Panel Recap- First episode shown- All 13 episodes completed, coming 2025- One overarching story- Chad Stahelski worked on 4-5 eps.- Used a Hollywood sound team- Keiko Nobumoto gave ideas- Bebop VAs are in Lazarus- Lead is of South American descent
>>272245767Is it gay?
>>272245946No. Looks straight.Watanabe is not a fujo
>>272244308Are you retarded? Carole and Tuesday had a black protagonist 6 years ago. Why are you and he so obsessed with forcing black people into anime? Why do they have to be there? No other group gets forced into media like this.>>272244390Are you seriously implying that the vast, vast majority of Japanese media is not about Japanese people?
>>272236039>MAPPA
>>272236039>Action Director: Chad StahelskiThe John Wick guy?
>>272236510Jason DeMarco is a co producer and it's his faggy american influence.
>>272236039>CRAPPA into the trash it goes
>>272248090>No other group gets forced into media like this.LGBT
>>272236039I'm interested, though it feels like there's a bit of a lack of physics. The guy's running feels "floaty" for lack of a better word.
>>272248090> Are you retarded? Carole and Tuesday had a black protagonist 6 years agoHad to share that with a white protagonist. Also not black enough.> Are you seriously implying that the vast, vast majority of Japanese media is not about Japanese people?Yes. The popular ones
>>272248352Yes
>>272248995It takes place in the future with high tech Ai.
>>272249025Does that high tech AI cause friction to stop functioning?
>>272245302How would you say that about Bebop if you like Dandy though
>>272248996LolYour argument is that the black protagonist who already existed in a Watanabe production (Which you were unaware of? You seemed to imply that it hasn't happened yet in your previous post.) is "not black enough," and that all of the most popular anime and manga that have been made are somehow _not_ about Japanese people? Do you even watch anime? Do you even read manga?You clearly haven't and don't want to do either. Why don't you just consume American media, which will have character who are black and foreign enough for you? Why do you want to change the media of other countries when what you want already exists elsewhere?
>>272236039I fine with his , Stahelski does really good gunplay .
>>272249434Anime will soon get more and more western. Deal with it coon! >>272243730
>>272239370>looks generic and obnoxiously CG heavy.no shit its mappa
>>272236039>Action Director: Chad StahelskiMight be cool.
>>272250203Why do you want it to become more and more western? I truly don't understand
>>272236039I shit on CRAPPA but with this style and director i wouldnt be against them making Kagurabachi.
>>272251120>Thread is not about KGB>KGBrat: Did you know that KGB exist?!!
>>272236039>Chad StahelskiYou can't make this up.
>>272237078>on top of refusing to be yuriIt broke yurifags like you, so it's okay in my book. >>272242883>chad stahelski was a stuntman before his directorial debutHow do you even make a career switch like that? Nepotism? Sucking dicks? Funding a production out of your own pocket? These freaking people live on such an easy mode.
>>272243584>Megumi HayashibaraWhoa, she's back!>Akio OtsukaCan't wait.>Mamoru MiyanoIt's like 80% of the budget went to hiring seiyuu.
>>272236714Why? Not even the biggest shounen MCs were Japanese. >>272245767>- Lead is of South American descentWill he speak random Spanish? I want to hear it. >>272248090'Japanese media' now? Not just 'anime' and 'manga'?
>>272236039The running is kinda jank.
>>272236510>concept and aestethics awakens that 90:ies vibes that has been lost for decades because of sloppa>BUT THE BLAAAACKSHoly shit, if you are gonna be so brainrotted that you get triggered by seeing dark hued people in a cartoon, at least have the decency of saying nigger, you fucking self-centered cuckNo seriously, literally go watch some cuck porn and let the rest of us discuss the show.
>>272251318Is all you know shounen? I obviously meant anime and manga. But regardless, it doesn't change the point at all.
>>272251481How the fuck is this "that 90ies vibe"? It's 85% 3D CGI. Seriously, the entire background of each scene is CGI. Everything in the trailer except the people is CGI. This might as well have been made in Unreal Engine.The soundtrack will be the only good thing about this show. Bonobo never disappoints.
>>272251547Cuck pornNow
>>272251626You have no rebuttal and you are obsessed
i was somewhat excited for this, the first trailer looked real good, but this is awful>the first scene is cool>zoomed-out running scenes with MC looking like few squiggly lines animated at 3fps>riddled with shitty CGI>the POV scene looked terrible>janky running, felt like MC was dropping framesmassive CRAPPA blunder, as excepted of the most cancerous studio in the industry.
>>272251547As long as the characters are not CG everything else can be
>>272253231>As long as the characters are not CGbut they arethe girl is cgi in the scene from behind when she's sittingthe MC is cgi when running on the tracks>inb4 it doesn't count
