Anyone remember this anime? What do you think of it?
I will now watch your show.
>>282652228I watched this one, don't remember a thing about it apart from that I enjoyed it.
>>282652228She is sola there.
>>282652298I don't remember much either, but MC was a copy of the dead original that disappeared at the end.
>>282652228goated
>>282652228I only remember the eternal loli and his totally not bf that kept getting older.
It was a breath of fresh air when every single anime of its time where trying too hard.The calm first episodes free from any perverted scenes really set it apart. (Ceiu's songs are still stuck in my ears) It was very slow burnBy the time the twist comes in, the characters were already very fleshed out.Looking back, it was not really anything significant, but it was a step above the common noisy and perverted anime of the 2007'sThe calm and soothing theme was later on toppled by Aria
>>282652596>perverted anime is... bad>anime trying to do something is... badAre you a homo by any chance?
>>282652699Bitch, 2000's anime are nothing but try-hardsEverything was exaggerated with loud ass j-pop songs like Night Wizard and 11 eyes. Every was loud and overwhelming.Sola is amongst the few that choose to take the off beaten path and be as soft and slow while still delivering a solid plot
>>282652228Watched it, remember nothing about it at all.It was at the time when VN based anime was all the rage, and this was one of the many slop following that formula. Probably, since I don't remember anything about it.
>>282652935Nah, this one was originalPlot was neatly wrapped up
>>282652935But Sola isn't based on a VN, it's based on a manga.
>>282652831You remember wrong then. Kino no Tabi, Sola, Another, Ergo Proxy, Ghibli movies, etc. 2000's were all about the ambience. Even the action foucsed series like Cashern Sins, Gungrave, Darker then Black followed this theme.And ambient anime hasn't been a thing since 2013. Sola was a product of it's time not the other way around.I really want to cry knowing I'll never go back.
>>282652972It was neither.
>>282652228I remember I liked it. Not much else. I do however remember some parts making me stop and think. I am going to watch this again.
>>282652596Probably one of the comfiest things I've ever watched, not even exaggerating.
>>282653191https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sola_(manga)
>>282653127No, I am not remembering it wrongYes, there were many like it and they stood out precisely because everyone else were trying something flashy and bombasticFutakoi alternative for example was a calm anime too but it started its first episode as a fast-paced action anime, which is a bait and hook
>>282652831>Bitch, 2000's anime are nothing but try-hardsNo, things like sola weren't unusual, to the point that back then most people were seeing it as a store-brand Key VN adaptation. It's still pretty good but that how it was perceived.
Haven't seen it discussed here in a very long timeMC was the dumbest fucker in anime history>let me just ruin the lives of everyone around me because I'm selfish and argue semantics
>>282653415Oh, but they were>store-brand Key VN adaptationThere's like only 3 Key anime during its timeThey were already a household name in VN, but not really much in anime2000s were the otaku era precisely because it is flooded with shows like Lucky star, naruto, FLCL, Ouran, Elfien Leid, and and so onIt was noise, colors, and over exaggerated characters that defined what anime is. And it is also why everyone looked down on otakus. Otakus were seen with greater disdain than we do towards the tiktok zoomers
>>282652228Sola and Myself;Yourself are the two titles I watched back in 00s when I enjoyed anime the most yet remember absolutely nothing about.
>>282652228All I remember is that the lead heroine wanted to kill the MC at the finale and his sister fight her to defend him & almost killed her until the MC sacrifice himself to protect the lead heroine and turns into paper
>>282653480Who are you talking about?The MC here was just a puppet given sentience. The girl just made him remember it because he wanted to know
>>282653504>unironically equating Lucky Star to NarutoYou may have brain damage if you think any of the anime you mentioned are a sign of some kind of pattern that exists only in your head
>>282653635Don't play dumb, bitchYou know exactly why everyone had to hide their power level even to this day
>>282653658That doesn't even make any sense. Lucky Star? Sure, that's otakubait. But Naruto is loved by every normalfag out there, nothing about it is "otaku" in the slightest
>>282653674LikedLoved is when you get classified as an otaku
I really like this song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1av5DSNVUY
>>282653371>retarded zoomer trying to dunk on someone who fucking owns that bookIt's an original story that was made into a manga and anime at the same time. >>282653504>They were already a household name in VN, but not really much in animeSola was announced in the middle of KyoAni's Kanon. They were absolutely a big name in anime and Naoki Hisaya was riding that wave.
>>282653778Not trying to dunk on anybody, I'm just saying that it's considered a manga adaptation. Maybe it was conceived at the same time, but the anime came later.
>>282652228>What do you think of it?It's bretty good but Ef destroys it in every way
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1av5DSNVUYSo NostalgicI watched Sola before my parents rise up so I really felt the MC's loved for sunrises
>>282653882It's called a "mixed media" project. That the first chapter of the manga was completed before the anime aired is only because of scheduling. Both were being made simultaneously with the anime literally being advertised in chapter 1.
>>282653674Dude you're viewing this through a modern lens. Being a Naruto kid in the mid 2000s was social death.
>>282654866Was it really? Because in my school it was watched by all the jocks and "cool" kids which of course instantly put me off it
>>282654940Everyone watched itNot everyone did the Naruto run
>>282652228Didn't it end with her biting the dust?
>>282652259this
>>282652228I love this show. Kanon was one of my favorite anime and so was Da Capo. Combine the writer of Kanon with the character designer of Da Capo and you get a tear jerker love story made just for me. I bought the R2s.Man, last anime they made like this was Nagi no Asukara.
>>282653543>Myself;YourselfCanon Twincest. Kicker OP song too.
Now I remember Sola. >>282653543>>282658441Yes I do have that song and I love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFSFdkXMOZo
