The problem with these "potion" animes is that the creators use the heckin isekaisloperino to skip all of the fun and intresting portions that would make the show novel, unique, and creative. They're fucking lazy. In the FUNAslop show, the femc just fabricates them out of thin air. In this one, she still had to get the ingredients, but that's a single, tiny step in the right direction. It bypasses potionmaking with the "create" button and a flash of light
When people talk about wanting a potion anime they want a FUCKING POTION anime. They want to see the process. They want to see a young alchemist gathering materials from a nearby forest and river- testing them, researching them, figuring out the best ways to cultivate them in his own garden and how to bring out their properties in the mix. They want to see water and wine poured in a cauldron and tree roots ground up in a mortar and pestel. They want to see colorful smoke plume up from the mixture when he plops a crystal he bought from a traveling dwarf and it knocks the MC into sleep because he was too ambitious and unsafe with his experiments. They want to see an episode where he travels to a nearby glassblowing artisian to negotiate a steady supply of bottles. They want to see a set of adventurers come in and place a large order of unique potions the mc has no idea how to make, and a whole arc of him discovering, testing, finally perfecting the potions that can aid the heroes on their journey. They want to see an episode where he creates a potion to talk to animals and strikes up a deal with the local fauna to bring him rare ingredients in exchange for food. They want to see the mc form a bond with a blond assistant girl named Arisu who becomes his apprentice in alchemy. They want to see the shop grow from a measly, wrickety, rundown shack to a proper artisianal storefront with shelves upon shelves of colorful bottles and feel the satisfaction of growth in knowledge, experience, and wealth.No one has delivered this. It is quite simply too kino to exist...
theres more problems with this than not but i'm in
If you dont watch this shitty anime you're going to make kaede cryDo you want that on your conscience, anon?I certainly don't.
>potion of WAGMI
This was literally deemed by its publisher to not be worth the effort of a real anime which is why the vector trace guys got it in the first place, so why do you care so much about it?
Magikku Baggu!!!
>>282903142AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
wish i had more to say about it but i dont and probably wont. it happened.
>>282903179That's what I wanna do to kaede's pussy
>>282903566Cute undies.
Isekaislop of the season.
>>282902454theres a reason you flip burgers and they make animes. your ideas are stupid
>>282904316You're stupid
>>282904020i don't know, the competition for the best slop is ferociousbut if it's comfiest slop op then
that's totally just laios
Very cute. But what potions did she conjure, what are their effects?
>>282904814dunno, she went off hunting herbs instead of just garbage this time
>>282904814The writers didn't think that far
>>282904765Lel reminds me of that time frieren showed up in my one hit kill sister isekai, or the time link and zelda appeared in that anime about being trapped beta testing a shit game
>>282903142Royalty-free BAG OF HOLDING
>>282902454Because the process of making something is boring. You realize all the stuff we can make today is thanks to lifetimes of testing spanning many generations of people. Someone would've spent their entire life trying to make paper from tree sap that doesn't work, there's nothing fun about that. And anything consumable takes even longer since it just kills them Sure she has a recipe book but at that point whats the issue with fabricating them out of thin air if you're just following a guide like that.
so did we find out how to fill water bottles?
>>282903142How many rats?
>>282902454Series is oddly fun.
>>282904814It's green, so it's a standard health potion (weak).
>>282903525>>282903468Cute body
>>282904316they make whatever they get hired to make by publishers; the story itself was written between the author's shifts flipping burgers
>>282905616Health potions are red, faggit
>>282905172I can show you how
>>282905753
>>282902454 >>282902462 >When people talk about wanting a potion anime they want a FUCKING POTION anime Okay... >They want to see the process. They want to see a young alchemist gathering materials from a nearby forest and river- testing them, researching them, figuring out the best ways to cultivate them in his own garden and how to bring out their properties in the mix. The English title of FUNA's potionloli is "I shall survive using potions!" Nowhere in the title does it indicate that Kaoru is a potioneer or an alchemist, rather it frames her as a consumer of potions instead. The idea that a story focusing on a consumable product has to be about the producer instead of the consumer or some middle part of the supply chain is entirely in your head. If you hear something like "anime about sweet cakes" most anons won't think about someone making them, but rather probably something along the lines of a group of CGDCT who consume cakes as part of their girly activities or something. When someone mentions an anime about "hammers and nails" almost no one would think of a production facility for hammers or nails, but rather about someone who connects parts of furniture using them, or someone who hangs a picture on the wall.
Potion seller, I need your strongest potions.
I just want a chaotic good protagonist that has fun messing with people making them drink weird potions
>>282906286i distinctly remember kusuriya being mentioned in the OP
>>282902454This is too high budget for a Light Anime, must be popular...
>>282906799So cute
>>282906286are you retarded? this anime is literally about potion making, she MAKES POTIONS AND SELLS THEM TO SURVIVE for fucks sake, so far she never drank a single potion she made you fucking retard, kys
>>282903142MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU MAJIKKU BAKKU I am a broken man
>>282907409I was talking about FUNA's potionloli, i.e. Kaoru, not this one.
>>282906286This is a war crimes anime, not a potion anime. That girl is a war criminal.
>>282902454>>282902462Its a fun low budget anime. Just let it do what its going to do.
Imagine the smell
AOTS, no, AOTY right here
>>282905535
>>282903142Majikku baggu?
why is the opening guitar riff so heavy
>in my original world there were no bipedal talking lizards...oh you sweet summer child
>>282908612Not everyone is ready to see the truth, Brother Jones
>>282903142>>282907554>>282908323
>>282908612Fucking connection niggers ate my post twice now so here's there's the abridged version>get a teacher's degree>have to deal with my first class>there's this autistic kid>he convinced himself that he's a fucking lizard>he's crawling across the floor as if he's some fat fucking gatorHe's like some reverse lizard man, it's fucking hilarious, I shouldn't be laughing about it, but I can't help myself
>>282904724I wanna FUCK Tokishiko.
>>282902454>>282902462So you guys want an Atelier anime?
Too bad it's 1/2 length. I wish it was longer.Other than that, a comfy anime.
As cheap as the show is, it's really not that bad. It's a shame that people will just dismiss it and think it's the worst show of the season when there's worse out there
>>282912313ironically the worst anime of the season is the one that's the highest budget and most lovingly produced
>>282912371Wandance?
>>282912440Wandance definitely does not have the highest budget or is the most lovingly produced
>>282902462They want to see an episode where he spikes Arisu's drink with a love potion
>>282905052>Lel reminds me of that time frieren showed up in my one hit kill sister isekaikek you reminded me of that, I watched it after frieren so it mindfucked me
>>282902454>>282902462Yeah, I get you.In my opinion, if you're not having as much fun while making a weak health potion as these guys, you shouldn't even be an alchemist.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYxI-Z7RCr4Do you see the genuine happiness in their eyes? The glee? Dancing around and signing so the potion feels well? That's how alchemists should be.
>>282906286I don't care about what the funashit show isI care about what it isn'tWhich is a good show
>>282908475That's where all the budget went
>>282911951The first and second episode felt like one episode desuThey should've just made 6 20m episodes like food court instead of cutting it down to 10m. It's just gonna bloat my fall watch list the whole time and I'm gonna get sick of it
>>282912313I don't think it's just the animation that's weak thoughI think the writing is also boring. It's doing the isekai homework shit of>oh no I'm not in my heckin original world!>what's this place called? Buttlickerland?>hhhmmm perhaps I need to find a way to survive in le isekai!!It's shit that has been covered by a million isekeis and with its limited runtime, it's not doing itself any favors by not skipping to the actual content of the show alreadyOne of the reasons iseaki is so commonly made is because they don't need to write the first episode. They just copy and paste it from all of the othersThat being said, I'm not going to actively shit on the show constantly because the girl is cute and that's worth half the show already
I wonder if the guy who made https://www.youtube.com/embed/uuBETyA_yxc or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jrO58mg-Qg made this adaption?That's fucking dumb she has to have the book. So anyone can take her book, rape and kill her and there is nothing she can do about it.>RickforniaA whole california full of ricks.Cute cat bag.Gross a kajit.Magikku baggu. I'm getting hobololi flashbacks.She didn't try to haggle at all? You're supposed to at those stalls.So they have magic cameras to take ID photos?>no bipedal talking lizardsYes there are.Almost flat dork.The "animation" choice on this is still fucking bizarre. I'm tempted to encode it at 12FPS and see if that makes it any better.
>>282912371Nah. Though I admit after finishing episode 1 of that I really don't get it.
speaking of FUNA it's about time we get average abilities season 2
Weird looking anime I LOVE IT today not so many studios produce unique style animations yes i know its look like 15$ steam porn game but its cute and comfy
>>282905616more like stamina potion (well sometimes stamina refers to hp in isekai) but who knows....
>>282902454Is this seriously a couple key frames and flash tween is used?
i watched the first episode for shit and giggles but I'm actually having fun and it's very cute so that's a plus
>>282902454We live in instant gratification world Anon, nobody has time for that shit anymore.
Potions are boring. Simple as. That's why, even if it's FUNA's weaker series by far, I still quite like I Will Survive Using BS Vials, because the potions were just a bait and switch.
>>282912371This. I dropped this one because I found it too boring to be simple overpowered by the cute, but I couldn't make it past the character introductions in this one.
so can you explain to me how in the philippines water bottle filling works? the water goes up instead of down? like reverse physics? is there a strong magnetic field there?
>>282920251The water simply wants to be in the bottle
>>282902454There's one that had a relatively detailed creation process, but the focus was more on magical items in general than just potions. At least that's what I remember from the novel version, I never watched the anime adaptation so it might just skip the process as well.
>>282922155I imagine you mean Dahlia? The anime didn't focus on anything but the shitty generic romance
>>282922186Nah, the one I meant was novice alchemist. Only romance in it was some yuribaiting.
>>282922345Ooh, Sarasa no Aterie. It's no bait.
