>>275430757Voice Cast>Shuichirou Umeda as Koichi Haimawari/The Cruller>Ikumi Hasegawa as Kazuho Haneyama/Pop Step>Yasuhiro Mamiya as KnuckledusterThe Anime will use the same slideshow animation as JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1~3 and Drifters. Art is detailed and simulates the outlines and cut-ins from western comic book, the outlines and motion look good but the cut-ins between fights look really awkward. Character designs are censored which means they won't be fixed in the Blu-ray like they did with Toga in My Hero Academia. Overall the art direction looks better than MHA but the frame by frame animation and character desings look far worse, I was hoping they would touch up the character desings a little to make it closer to Horikoshi's but they honestly made it worse. I assume it will end at the end of the Queen Bee arc, but if it ends up being 2 cours it should end right after the end of the Sky Egg.
>>275430757It really looks uglier than I expected, still going to watch it tho. The voices are fitting at least.
>>275430757
>>275430757Does an editor usually get top (or semi-top) billing the same way art directors and cg directors do?
>>275431391From my understanding no, editors tend to be listed after the character designer
What killed the hype? MHA went out with a bang that's should translate to Vigs getting boosted
>>275431501>What killed the hype?For what? Vigs or the series in general? And how are you measuring this hype?
Wake me when the dub cast is announced.
>>275431358>My Hero Academia if it was good
>>275431501>What killed the hype?MHA starts very strong but then it hits "You're Next" and it feels like it has no idea how to get to the end game from there. Just as it reaches that point, the anime starts diverting resources from the show to fuel the films, meaning that the narrative and animation drop off a cliff simultaneously.
>>275430757Censored garbage not watching, fuck modern anime and every single anime consumer that started watching anime after 2010
Censored trash, here the main girl original costume
>>275432912And here the animeI miss the 80-90's when Japan was based, made a vilain who try to rape a shota in Gundam victory, who made blood related romance for tv, who made eroguro animation and cronenberg tier body horror for shonen animeJust look at dragon ball, there is no fucking blood anymore, back then arm were cutted, they used guns againt children, showed goku's dick without caringLook at Hokuto no Ken, it's was a shonen
>>275432912>>275432980are you having aneurysm over 0,01mm of see-through stockings? her outfit looks the same in trailer. same length skimpy skirt and socks. tits look bigger in anime as well. we didn't even see any butt shots so can't tell if behind it censored in any way. what the hell are you going on about.
>>275433941>having aneurysm over 0,01mm of see-through stockings?Censorship and any censorers or censor defender should be put to death so kys please
>>275432980No Blackrock money in that.
vigi bros, why does no one care about our spin off series
>>275436646Fuck them filtered faggots, this is for us.
>>275430792I'm also slightly concerned about the mix they went for with style and animation. Was hoping they'd go the other direction and do easy to animate models, so we'd have smoother animation. More like Dandadan's adaption, less like Jojo's, so to speak. Cuts with character closeups were ok for the most part, but stuff like Ingenium's running animation or the choppy cut where Koichi turns a corner lack a certain feel of vision as far as good action storyboarding and the execution thereof goes. I hope it turns out to be needless worries.
>>275432980>cronenberg tier body horror for shonen animewhat?
>>275436646Plenty of people seem to care elsewhere.
Love them.
>>275437063If there were any money shots and top-tier sakuga they would tease some of it in the trailer. Believe me if they were cooking we would know it. I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you.
>>275437143Anon probably thinks OAVs from the nineties were shounen tv series from back in the day.
>>275430757>>275430792I still can't believe this is happening. Its like some kind of fever dream.
>>275437168Are MC and pink cute and canon?
>>275437182Seems to me like they only showed stuff that would exist in the first few episode.
>>275437224The good kind of fever dream?
On the plus side, the battle theme at the end of the trailer was great. I can already visualize it enhancing some of Koichi's growth scenes during battles.
>>275430792I like the stockings on Pop, it's a nice visual upgrade and has Morrigan vibes
Looks goodCensorship is always bad but at least it still seems to take full advantage of her racy outfit by the trailer
>>275431622>MHA starts very strong but then it hits "You're Next" and it feels like it has no idea how to get to the end game from there.Meanwhile in reality
MHA
>>275439160real
>>275430757Can't wait for animeonlies to hit Koichi's 'I help people because it's the right thing to do even though my quirk sucks and I can't become a hero' speech and get blackpilled on Deku.
>>275437224Right? Vigs getting an anime is genuinely the most shocking development of the last six months for me.
>>275439160>>275439167>builted
>>275439452bluitened
>>275431552Who are you hoping for? Any specifics?
Really want to see who'll voice Rock
>>275430757Soo it's kickass inspired right?
>>275440112Maybe. But in execution it's Spider-Man if Batman was his mentor.
>>275430757I honestly have no fucking clue how they're planning on actually adapting Vigilantes. That manga was never really finished - it started floundering in the rankings, so the writer had to hastily slap some sorta "ending" together and refocus entirely on Aizawa's backstory in the last few chapters. As a result, it feels unfinished. I guess this might be a chance to rewrite a few things, kinda like Bleach's TYBW, but I really doubt they'll do that.On the other hand, this also feels like an attempt to bring MHA back by opening the door to the larger MHA universe. I guess these >>275439081 numbers make Shueisha feel very uncomfy about leaving Horikoshi's capeshit behind.
>>275440419>the writer had to hastily slap some sorta "ending" together and refocus entirely on Aizawa's backstory in the last few chaptersAre you sure you actually read it to the end and didn't just drop it at a certain point and forget about it? There was a huge battle between Koichi and the main villain that if anything went on for too long. Aizawa's backstory was barely midway through the series.
>>275440462Don't even remember, this was a while ago. Point is, while Vigilantes does some really fucking neat things with the MHA concept (especially early on), I remember it being rough around the edges compared to the original. If they want this to stand alongside MHA, the director will have to put some elbow grease into the adaptation, while the original was more straightforward.
