https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2412848/photo/1/Someone jumped the gun and revealed Rayearth that's supposed to be coming out soon.
We've known a remake was coming for a few months. Did anything new get released?
>>283083892Yeah that pic is what they had on the site for an hour before they deleted it since it was too early.
>>283083819>page not foundAw, nuts.The face style in OP pic looks perfect though. Fuck yes.
>>283083819She looks more ranma than remake ranma
>>283083819The new art style is pretty good although I still prefer the manga art
>>283085563It looks like the manga style
>remake
>>283085563The manga art is gorgeously elaborate, so yeah. But this is adapting the manga face style about as nicely as I dared to hope from the pretty back shot. Part of me was still fearing some kind of butterface reveal, and this puts those fears to bed.
>TOMAAAA~RANAIII
>>283083819>pinkshitWorst anime of all time.
>>283085889>what is lighting
>>283083819Who will their VA's be? I somehow doubt they will get the same ones from old anime.
>>283083819No Nova no watch. #justicefornova

>>283083819It looks sloppish, it looks like they are going to use 3d shit for the mechas and the genies
Two and a half hours until official news.
>>283083819Why does it look like a low budget Precure season?
>>283083819You can tell they've used AI.
>>283086473Hrmm, you raise a fair point. At least they look fiery.
>>283086488>>283086606Let's not preemptively doompost now.
>>283086164Only Hekiru is even really active at the moment. No way are they bringing back the old cast.
>>283083819Whats wrong with their hair colors? O.o
>>283087382The sun's very bright.
>>283083819Is his show gonna be girly? More girly than tokio mew mew or sailor moon
>>283087459Yes, you should leave this thread and never watch it or even think about this series again.
>>283087473But how much girly? Girlier than tokio mew mew? I think tokio mew mew is girlier than sailor moon but still like it more.
>>283087459Consider Madoka.
Good luck trying to even get close to the ost of the original.
>>283083819my waif Umi looks really good
>>283083819What's their OnlyFans?
>>283086502YOU LIED TO ME
It's up.
Post your initial impressions on the Key Visuals.
>>283088011I really like these designs. It's another thing I liked from Tokyo mew mew remake too, they tried to make the anime classic.For some reason I really dislike Ranma and Lum remakes shitty colours, those looked ugly
>>283086566Since this anime never made a lot of money, why would the animation production committee invest a huge production budget in this anime?
>>283088011Looking really good. Logo sword looks kinda flat.
>>283083819Ok, I´ve got to ask... What´s the fucking point of remaking every single 30 year old popular anime but worse? Orphen, Kenshin, Shaman King, HxH and now this? I´d understand if the quality of art, animation or storytelling improved but that is not the case in most cases so what´s the point? I´m sure there are tons of manga waiting for an adaptation that would welcome even a shit budget tier one... and we wouldn´t be subjected to comparing art with whatever the fuck this they are doing is supposed to be.
>>283088167Yeah, they should dedicate those resources to incomplete anime instead. I would love a remake of Getter Robo adapted from the beginning faithfully (they only adapted Arc aka the last one for some fucking reason) or other series that never had a good adaptation (Beelzebub, Toriko, and Medaka box which the anime fucking ended before Kumagawa, that character would have been a HUGE boost for the manga)
>>283088167To sell merchandise to the nostalgic before they are too old and stop mattering. It's not really for making a better or complete version
>>283088167For the same reason that the late 90s were filled with remakes of 1970s/1980s anime.
>>283088167Copyright shit.Milking nostalgia.Generally seen as safer than a new project.The usual.
>>283088167Nigga the original was overloaded with chibishit. It can't get worse from here.
>>283088011Wait... Umi doesn't have a busty bode?!

>>283088167in Shaman King and HxH's case, it was adapting material from the manga that never got animated. I presume this will be the case for Rayearth, but a faithful adaptation of the manga would just make it feel like a condensed version of the first anime, ironically enough.

>>283088167>What´s the fucking point of remaking every single 30 year old popular anime but worse?I guess because they were popular, so production committees think they can replicate their success? Funny how they never remake incomplete OVAs or memory-holed TV anime (which might be based on amazing manga). >I´d understand if the quality of art, animation or storytelling improved but that is not the case in most casesThey bank on new audiences never having contact with the old show. >>283088208>BeelzebubThey never even finished that one lol. >>283088251Such as? I can only think of Bubblegum Crisis and it's a stretch, since it changed character designs and included a new plot - 'retelling' would be a better term.
NGL their faces look way too flat and the fucking bloom. Is this going to be another Sailor Moon Crystal?
>>283088373>Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken>YaibaThose never got full adaptations.>>283088011What's with those pointy chins?
>>283089681If anything, the 2000s was full of remakes and retellings of classics. Mazinkaiser, Getter Robo Shin and Armageddon, Kikaider, Cyborg 009, Astro Boy, Yatterman, Doraemon, etc.
>>283088011
>>283087284they've had rayearth collabs in recent times like including srw, pretty sure hekiru was onboard for that one at the least, so at least having her is not far offdon't know about the other va

>>2830901612000s =/= late 90s>KikaiderThis never got a TV anime before 2000, what are you even talking about.
>>283090357This is how they look when CLAMP drew them 30 yrs ago. This key visual looks just poorly drawn. What a let down.
>>283090328I want to find out. You need to post more, for educational purposes.
is this the same designer as sailor moon crystal?
>>283090427
>>283090459>cheesy dialogueYou can't into old shoujo manga and neither can the modern audience. This will flop.
We weren't going to deify that cirno lol
one of the fears besides the fear of QUALITY rearing its ugly head is the idea that it will be adapted straight from the manga, which as i said before in a previous thread, the narrative for especially what would have been s2 in the original anime before it went a different direction is not really made for anime, it's made for storybook reading for imaginative kids because of its meta based on such a devicealso the anime was very hikaru holic and gave her romantic feelings the manga didn't really give which gave her some needed drama tension
>>283083819This looks very cheap... Oh well. It was good while it lasted.

>>283090668
>>283088327Hard to tell because this style never emphasized breasts, but i think Fuu was slightly bigger, Umi was mid and hikaru was flat
>>283090668What'd they say?
>>283090766
Why is modern anime allergic to red hair?First Ranma, now Hikaru.
>>283090796Reminds me when they did the same with Lum, they fucking remade even the phone chapter where Shinobu and Ataru are constantly interrupted when they use their phone, they pretend mobile phones don't exist there kek
>>283090796It's not a jidai geki. There's no need for the showrunners to be so anal about "era-appropriate tech", and those who are are probably having the likes of you as a target audience.
>>283090388Kikaider's still a classic 70s property and the anime came out the same era as the Cyborg 009 reboot and was also an Ishinomori work. That's why Included it.
>>283090783Yes but only if you make it to the end of season 1. It's an acquired taste.
>>283090734This.
>>283088011It's ok, I don't expect a seasonal anime to be mindblowing.
Eyes look okish but the shape of the head is weird >>283090308
>>283083819So pointless
>>283091148The anime didn't exist before 2000, you're spouting bullshit.
>>283090922mostly nostalgia and some complaints about the art style changes
>>283083819Excellent
>>283091965Do they think this is pointless too?
SOULSOUL
love all the CLAMPs
>>283083819I don't like Fuu's colors, specially her hair, too bright, she is more of a subtle girl outside her outburts, what a wonderful girl.
>>283089001>60fpsYou and everyone like you are a plague
>>283091910I never said it was a remake of an anime. But it's still a remake/retelling of a classic property (toku and manga in this case)
I know CLAMP colors are generally schizoprenic, but I always thought the explicit brunette the first anime settled on was a better fit for Fuu than the various shades of blonde they seem to slap on to her.
Do I dare ask how the multiverse dumbfuckery in Tsubasa ruined Rayearth?
I just want a reprint of the figmas, they're so expensive.

>>283089187I wasn't even born yet in 1994.
>>283092537I want to go back. Even the remakes were more original back then.
What do you think of their OVA designs?
>>283092766ASPECT RATIO
It's not that I'm so violently or profoundly against the idea of a remake but they also choose things that simply don't need one. You're not gonna improve on the old anime. There's a lot of shows that might actually benefit from one, series that never felt complete or like they lived up to their potential but they always go for the shows that were already good. I know it's because MONEY and popular stuff gets more buzz for a remake. But I can't help but find the whole things ghoulish.
>>283092984I heard they wanted to cap off the series with another movie that never got made. Which is a shame. At this point though I'd be content if the manga would get a better quality rerelease. Did you know he put out a sequel a bunch of years later? Not translated of course. This franchise really has all the luck.
>>283092857>ghoulishIt's like they are spiting otaku, replacing good, old shows with cheap, new imitations. And if they must cash in on a popular property, why not make a TV series of manga that was popular back in the day and only got a couple of OVAs at most? Like Battle Angel Alita, Angel Sanctuary or 3x3 Eyes.
>>283092766Joyless
>>283092766They fit the OVA aesthetic; muted colors and more "mature" less cartoony designs.Doesn't stop the OVA from being a bag of shit, but they were one good thing about it.
>>283093139You'd think Alita would have been an obvious choice because of the movie bringing attention to things. It's not even like it's a dead IP either the manga is still being made. But yes this is what I really hate about remakes in general. The idea that the new version will effectively replace the old one is dreadful. It's happened with a lot of video games already and the more it happens and the more we have to specify year or THE OLD ONE it feels like art is losing it's value. And perhaps this is just my own paranoia but I do feel like the more it happens the less likely the originals will continue to be preserved. The old Kenshin never even got a blu ray release.
>remake of classic is announced>it looks like absolute trash>thread devolves into old good new bad and I can't even argue with the other anons because it is objectively correctThe absolute state of the modern anime industry, it really reminds me of where jewllywood was in the mid to late 2010s.5 more years before it is completely done, huh...
>>283093251One of the biggest issues is that people are so quick to rush out nostalgia bait that very little things are being made that will have the potential for its own nostalgia down the road. What series are fans today going to look back on in 30 years. Where is the, for desperate want of a better word, the new nostalgia?
>>283083819>We waited an entire fucking year since the original announcement and teaser poster just for another teaser poster.>No actual dateThey delayed this thing after this crap, don't they?https://youtu.be/lE9K6Hppfo8?si=3sfspn2aV1df9OBD

>still waiting for Dragon Half the Complete Adaptation. >>283093235>The old Kenshin never even got a blu ray releaseWatsuki being busted for child porn might have something to do with this. >You'd think Alita would have been an obvious choiceBaffling how GitS got so many films, TV series, OVAs, a Hollywood film and another incoming project by Science Saru, but there is crickets for Alita, despite the live action being fairly well-received.

So it took them 1 year to release another promotional pic and a promise of "sometime in 2026". Fucking Ranma remake was announced after the rayearth remake and came out months later, we're now in its second season.First season is also going to be fucking boring since the original anime adapted the manga fairly well (in b4 but they killed persea or innouva is not canon). THey did a great job.But second season without Nova is going to be worse, second season both anime and manga sucked even if they were very different. I actually hope the second season doens't adapt the manga and does its own thing.>>283090496>>283090427>>283090328Damn, didn't look this ugly when I watched it but I watched the blu-ray re-edit and while I still didn't like the art style it was not ugly like these examples.
>>283094236>First season is also going to be fucking boring since the original anime adapted the manga fairly well (in b4 but they killed persea or innouva is not canon). THey did a great job.Personally I think the story was actually BETTER for killing Presea. Having the girls actually face a tragedy or two on their quest adds to the weight of things. I like the manga but honestly it's kind of dry. Or at the very least very minimal.

The question is why the 90s hated pink hair.
What's with all the cope, just look at the promo art >>283083819It just looks wrong, and the actual product will look even worse.
>>283090668wow
>>283094500Sailor moon Crystal was literally greenlit I'm 2012 for the sole porpuse of Gatekeeping the rights away from other companies, because Toei didn't really cared about it but didn't wanted TMS or Madhouse to have a shot at it, they literally just became the kids anime company of BANDAI and didn't wanted to put focus away from PreCure, so they didn't worked on this thing for a year and a half, JoJo anime came out and Stardust Crusaders came out, and meanwhile Toei still had NOTHING, and judging by how derpy the show looked when it finally came out in 2014 by weekly, it was obvious production was rushed in less then 5 months.
>>283094468Great character songs too.
if the OP isn't a yuzurenai negai remix I don't want it
>>283083819Well it can't be worse than the Nube remake, right?
>>283090422while that was stuff for or on the manga covers, when people say it looks like the manga, they mean inside the chapters because they aren't going to paint every single fucking panel like that art you posted, they ain't american comics budget

>>283096592
>>283096100I fucking loved Zenki, now THAT is an anime that deserves a remake closer to the manga, the anime begins fine but just kinda falters later on while the manga only gets better
>>283096100I swear, complaining about pointy chins in anime is the biggest zoomer tell.
>>283096618I got a copy too. Quite a few rare saturn games in my shelf. There are days when I'm tempted to sell them. I really don't play them at all these days and I could certain use a few thousand bucks but having sold rare games in the past I always regret it later and would hate to track them down again. Plus I resent the retro game resale market. I can't really prove this but one of the games I sold, a copy of Suikoden 2, which I sold for a FAIR price I think, was up on ebay within a month of me selling it. The manual had a very specific crease (Which is part of why I low balled it) for like three times the asking price I sold.
>>283095871Another list where Chacha was in the top 5.

>>283096934The colors in the old japanese DVD were so much better then the blurays
>>283094214He's shitposting.Mahoujin Guru Guru's remake was faithful to the manga pacing, while the 90s adaption was full of filler that bloated the watch time.Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken did nothing to change Pop's character negatively (if anything he got a glow-up) and most of the fanservice of the original 90s adaption was anime-original rather than from the manga.
>>283094214>>283097564Honestly you can spot fake fans really easily when they start complaining about the "modern adaption" ruining or deviating from the "old anime" when a lot of the time it's just the modern adaption being more faithful to the source material that they've never read.
>>283097622One other thing you quickly learn is that sometimes, every now and again, the original adaptation wasn't that good to start with.
>>283097702I have never found toriyamas female designs, style or his imitators especially attractive.

>>283097622>>283097564motherfuckers, i did grew up with the original mahoujin guru guru and Daiboken animes when they air them on tv in LatAm.
>FillerAnyone complaining about filler is a MAL tard trying to rush a series to pad out their lists or a shounen tard who won't read the manga.
>>283097702>GAIS, the old anime was pervy and didnt needed that shitTourist are a blight on anime in general, also the Urisey Yatsura, Ranma and Nube remakes DID censor all the fanservice cause the company its tied to DEI, no joke, and fuckwads who tried to go:>The perv sex shit was anime original onlyThey only read the butchered censored american releases of these mangas, cough cough VIZ media cough cough, SEVEN SEAS couh cough
I'm excited. I loved the manga and hated the original anime. It was a poor adaptation that made story-altering changes. The art wasn't always the best either. I hope it encourages more people to read the original manga at least.
clamp is pozzed garbage
>>283098119>also the Urisey Yatsura, Ranma and Nube remakes DID censor all the fanservice cause the company its tied to DEIDid it ever once come across your mind that maybe they did they because Japanese broadcasting standards have changed since the 80s-early 90s? Not everything is related to /pol/shit retard.
>>283098312Did it ever once come across your mind that THAT'S NOT BETTER!! All you're doing is saying that things shouldn't be remade in the modern day in the first place! The reason is immaterial. What matters is the work. If you can't do something proper don't half ass it and blame OH STANDARDS AND PRACTICES. This is how shit degrades in the first place.

>>283098789What the fuck are you even on about? Most of their adaptations have been mediocre. Their manga is why people love them.
>>283096364I particularly miss leotard core
>>283098421>Did it ever once come across your mind that THAT'S NOT BETTER!! All you're doing is saying that things shouldn't be remade in the modern day in the first place! The reason is immaterial. What matters is the work. If you can't do something proper don't half ass it and blame OH STANDARDS AND PRACTICES. This is how shit degrades in the first place.My point is, stop blaming everything on politics.
>>283098623>You don't even know the name of the thing you're supposed to be a fan of.I was quoting someone else. It's not my job to spell check them. If you had actually read the person's comment who I was quoting, you would know that.

>>283098739>The same old excuse, same old, same old. we get it, you like it in the ass.Why are you talking about gayshit?
>>283096840What the heck Umibros... were we minorities all along?
>>283099058I didn't say ignore it dumbass. I said actually pay attention to the real issue instead of using it to push your agenda.
>>283088011Its bad
>>283083819Hikaru still is the ugliest of the trio
>accurate to the manga>No nova garbage >Actual animation instead of zooms and crops>No more chibi nonsense every 2 minutes >Better development for Umi and Fuu>OVA is actually incorporated >Way better mech designsThat's why we need this remake
>>283083819I just hope that they make new Umi figurines, especially in her armor. I will buy one, no matter the price. Best girl ever.I'll obviously watch it, but I don't feel too much excitement. It's not like the original adaptation had any issues beyond not being fully faithful to the manga (which is the case for just about every CLAMP anime anyway), plus it looked and sounded absolutely amazing. The remake stands absolutely no chance because modern coloring and music just cannot compete. And who even asked for a remake of MKR? I can think of several CLAMP projects for which I'd rather see a new anime.>>283099373With video games, publishers can at least sell the masses on "we fixed the old clunky gameplay and added QOL features". You cannot really do that with manga or anime. Especially MKR, which cannot be described as "dated" in the least.
>>283099677>No more chibi nonsense every 2 minutesThe manga also has full of chibi scenes, no? It was a trend during the 90s.
>>283099763I'm glad they're going to get rid of it. It's not appealing for today's modern audiences
>>283099819From my observation, new niggers don't watch old anime remakes at all. these remakes are mostly for old audience.
>>283096337Crystal's character design is good, the character are very feminine.
>>283099819Fuck modern audiences and fuck chibi haters
>>283099949>>283099969Hope they rerelease these. their second hand prices are fucking vile currently.
>>283095665The original Eva will probably never get remade because it has been constantly added onto for 30 years.
Shouldn't the green one have green hair?
>>283099677>>Better development for Umi and FuuThis is precisely what the old anime added you monumental casual
>>283088011It looks in-between a Crsytal and Clear Card level of downgrade from the original anime.
>>283096048It IS a hentai. That's how adult anime used to be in the early-mid 90s. A couple of super short sex scenes where nothing explicit was shown.
>>283100002They're still good. CLAMP is one of the few manga artists whose art hasn’t declined with age.

>>283100265>degrainedFuck off
>>283100311Which one do you recommend?
>what could have been
>>283098789Nah.
>>283098902Most people say this because of CCS but they don't realize that they were also heavily involved in creating the CCS anime
>>283083819I simply have remake fatigue, is it such a hot take to have?
>>283099819>((((((Modern Audience))))))The enigmatic rarer than rare animal known as the modern audience is truly so invisible that they are unseeable.
well it's not llike the rayearth manga has any nudity or pantyshots so none of that will be censored, the 90s anime sexualized it more than it really was
>>283100410No anime is made using hand drawn cels anymore.
>>283100221Huh, no? remember in the mid 2000s to mid 2010s when their artsyle deteriorated during Tsubasa Chronicles and ended up looking like a bad amalgamation of Echiro Oda's and Hiroyuki Takei styles
>>283100795Any examples for your claim? Their style differs greatly from one work to another.
>>283100548New works are risky and industry is risk averse.Now gobble those shitty isekai LN adaptations.

>>283088373>Fruits Basket remake>betterIt followed the diddy slop manga with all it’s pedo age gaps and retarded as fuck anime premise of a mother being jealous of her daughter and afraid she’s going to cuck her out of her husband (the daughter’s biological father mind you) being the basis for most of the plot.

>>283101861
>>283083819CLAMP Magical Girl kino is back on the menu! Time to show all these new gen Magical Girl slop how it’s really done.
>>283101987It will most likely under perform and get over shadowed by the people who like modern trash. It will potentially pander to them as well.

How are they going to fuck this up? They better not go with the manga ending from Vols. 4,5 and 6. They completely remove the invaders who are off fighting each other and never meet the knights, and they better not pull that Mokona is god shit.
>>283099107Appears so.
I'm not sure when I could have shared this information but if nothing else, I actually like the opening for the Kyoto arc in the new rendition of Kenshin.As classic as the old openings are, the 2nd opening for the 1996 series was like 95% stills.
>>283099107Fuu is the romance self insert and Hikaru was a loli in the middle of a loli drought.
>>283103184Hikaru wasn't THAT short, was she?
>>283103155Yet very few openings of the past 20 years have sequences as hype as the series of flashing stills showing the Jupongata.
>>283103155>the 2nd opening for the 1996 series was like 95% stills.It was very effective stills.
>>283103197She officially looks like an 11 year old.
I want the crazy bitch back
>>283103288I say let her be her own thing. Miki Itou was just tii singluar a lunatic to recast. She also played the Japanese Dub of Harley Quinn so the casting directors over there knew what the fuck they were doing.
>>283100396I'm not an anime specialist, but I went with xPearse.
>>283103029I will never take serious anyone who lists Ami as their favorite
>>283103184Fuck off Hikari is pure and innocent.
>>283103288she was the best thing of part 2 and she's not even in the part 2 of the manga. If this is a faithful adaptation we'll get a worse part 2 than the 90s.
>>283103579>I will never take serious anyone who lists Ami as their favoriteOuch on Japan.
>>283103198>>283103213Admittedly the juppongata in the opening in mind don't even get their silhouettes filled in but I really like the song and its lyrics.
>>283095764>Master Asia
>>283102636Theory:>Mokona is just a body for God from Devilman and this is in continuity with it and Rayearth is just one of the loops after God wipe the earth
>>283102554Clear Cards issue is that it came out too soon when the Clamps were being too fucking sabbatical with each chapter, then the Pandemic didn't helped, they just ended that shit show last year and never clarified if that was the end of the series or just that arc and then they will make another one.
>>283085829>MIRAI WOOOOOO
>>283103799>El Kokun behind Trampa y Medio.ESTUPIDOOOOOOOO
Alcyone will get her tits out this season. Presea too.
Magic Knight Rayearth had one of the tightest scripts ever. Seriously. As long as Hikaru wasn't going on one of her proto-Shinji emo benders the scripts weren't wasting any lines. Everything was a character moment, a set up or delivery to get to the next plot point.
>>283103722Yes I'm sure Hikari is very innocent, and so is notable loli Hikaru.
>>283103944We named the dog Hikari.
>>283103288>Casual panty shot in a fight scene >Not even for fan service >A simple shot for realism and soulFuck I miss anime used to do this
>>283103872I wish CLAMP could draw forever but they're in their 60s now...
Reminder that this show put out 49 episodes in a little over 13 months. Amazing by todays' standards. In the Ink and Paint era? That's fucking insane.
>>283099512>Did you know that in Japan things also get censored according to local sensibilities?No, nobody knew except you.
Since this is obviously gonna be an 1:1 manga adaptation, i just want one thing, and one thing only: that Caldina's only ep in Part 1 is the best animated. i want them to do this chocolate semen demon justice before she just ends up doing jackshit in Part 2! not to mention her red cape design is better.
>>283103992The knights wore Petticoats. We never saw panties. For all we know they went commando.Which is why I made sure to capture this frame. Let the debate begin.
Are Umi and Fuu in the hebe range or should I just consider tham as women
>>283104021That's... that's just a normal four cour show.
>>283104139Maybe if it's a Takahashi show, or Sailor moon I guess.
>>283104127I just except magical girls from age considerations.
>>283104127They're all the same age and 14 is a prime number
>>283104205Fuu being a slut turns me on
>>283104263She does that a lot
>>283103802I really liked both of the new Kyoto arc OPs honestly. I wouldn't say they surpass the old OP but the songs and visuals were still fun.
>>283097016Women have always loved autistic male characters.
>>283104205>14 is a prime numberNo it's not.
>>283104664No, it's definitely prime
>>283103799Say or do anything other than saying you like to study. Saying you get good grades and study is now how you convey intelligence. There is no practical applied knowledge or cleverness on display. Do any kind of episode other than something related to studying! NO THE DANCE DOESN'T COUNT THAT WAS A JUPITER EPISODE! And she's in the same boat with her lovelorn tomboy shtick.
Something I never understood about the story, why did she said the Lantis guy liked Eagle? She even compared them to the straight couple, so it wasn't a platonic like. Didn't he like her?
Umi's armor design is just perfect>shoulder pads check>exposed armpits check>highleg leotard checkand people wonder why she's the most popular one among the trio
>>283103992>>Casual panty shot in a fight sceneWhat pantyshot? Did you mistake the white underside of her skirt for panties?
>>283104779>and people wonder why she's the most popular one among the trioShe's not, except on this board.>>283103029>>283103799
>>283104787All my friends like the blue girl
>>283104787Absolutely meaningles polls
>>283087522>fire elemental>using lightning
>>283104728i mean, its fair, but Ami, to me and im sure a lot of people is the downright prettiest of the bunch. PRETTIEST being the keyword here.Rei, Minako, Setsuna... those are SEXY, not pretty, there is a difference.

>>283101670>Ebonics speakOpinion discarded lmao.
>>283104890>70k likesThe japanese are liking it?
>>283104263Fuu is such a slut she acts as an extra in other ecchi anime.
>>283083819Unrionically who would want to watch Rayearth with CGI battles, censorship, and supporting the genocide of red haired girls?
>>283105367Girls
>>283089187Episode 1 of Yuki Yuna is a Hero aired exactly 20 years after episode 1 of Rayearth to the day.Cycles of armed JC suffering...
>>283103288>that little head shake before she tosses the swordsTrue SOVL. The new anime never could.
>>283104127That depends, what category do you put the Sailors in? Or the Megucas? Or the 90% of Pretty Cures who are JC2?
>>283105367Hikaru was always pink.
>>283103992That's not a pantyshot you dumb coomer.>>283104093>We never saw pantiesWe do actually in another scene. They wear panties confirmed.
>>283105599I doubt.
>>283105599Please No
>>283099677Just canonize Hikaru in that gymnastics leotard and I'm good. Naked mecha piloting optional.
Umi is built for straight shota.
>>283104851I mean I don't want to be angry IT guy, because that's what I do for work, but I don't really know how else you can explain this without being insulting or patronizing. It's a very simple concept. You're not asking what or how LAN networks work, what TCPIP is, or generally anything relating to more intricate or specific regarding higher functionality. I know this was probably like 1995 and internet and computers weren't so ubiquitous yet but it's not a complicated concept.
>>283104873Pretty is a second hand compliment that means nothing. Pretty is what you call a dull girl who makes a sudden effort to care about her appearance. You tell her that new hair cut or dress looks pretty, and it's true but it's not interesting. There's no allure, no mystery or beauty. Just simple prettiness.
>>283083819I wonder how they are going to top the mecha sequences. Modern CGI?
>>283106314CGI 100%There's no one left in the industry who knows how to animate mecha.
>>283083819What's the point in remaking a show that was already perfect knowing damn well modern tools, restrictive budgets & tight scheduling won't make something even close to as good as the original?
>>283106355>>283106314here's a leaked peak
>>283106402Fuck... Dead on arrival.
>>283106402I wish they would do another one of those Clamp in Wonderland music videos. Maybe now that we have Clear Card and this reboot they'll consider it.
We're never gonna get a full RG Veda anime are we?
What is /m/'s reaction to this?
>>283106887More or less the same here. General indifference and wondering why.
>>283106887Watching Rayearth for the mechas is like watching Evangelion for the mechas.
>>283106938you're an idiot.
>>283106957>>283106936Having Yamane as the mecha designer made the Mashins so much cooler in the anime.
>>283106938> Unlike other mecha shows, this one is about the characters.
>>283106314This might be very disappointing, even if you haven't watched this anime, those who have only watched this anime on sakugabooru will know that the robots in this anime are only summoned to perform the ultimate killer move, these robots have no combat moves, and the body movements of these robots are just enlarged versions of humans in armor, not real robots like Gundam.The battle scenes in this anime are incredibly boring. They're just magical girls standing around casting spells. When they encounter an enemy they can't defeat, they summon these robots, which also stand and cast magic to end the battle. If you're hoping for exciting robot battles in this anime, you'll be sorely disappointed.The battles in this anime are essentially turn-based RPG-style combat.
Why are we discussing Toei Sailor Slop in a CLAMP Magical Girl thread? Stick to your containment board /pc/ for that baby toyshilling shit.
>>283106402>>283106416That's from a 2007 music video, CLAMP in Wonderland 2 1995-2006.

>>283107569>I just want to ask do black weebs seriously not like lolis?Unlike white and asian weebs we’re actually normal and can pull women our own age, so we don’t have to resort to grooming and diddling kids.
>>283107610This is just standing there swinging a few swords, no different from standing there casting magic. The battle scenes in this anime are essentially RPG turn-based battle style, and the battle scenes in this anime are very boring.
>>283107702Damn you guys suck then
>>283107569Not since madthad got jailed and had to go on the sex offender registry.
Are they going to shrunk male character's shoulders
>>283107705>The gundam's just standing there shooting it's pew pews. It's just the same as magic.You're an idiot.
>>283107474You'll be dissapointed, is just a shitty music video that they spoiled all the keyshots in a trailer making it seems like it was some sort of OP of an OVA, i was alive back then when that trailer came out.>>283107654Rayearth actually aired on Azteca 7 and 13 around Caritele and Weekdays later around 96 and 97, it literally aired alongside SailorMoon and the last reruns of Saint Seiya (before the latter went off the air for years up until the mid 2000s re-premiere on Cartoon Network LaTam), this werent some obscure premium cable channel like Locomotion or a South American channel that somehow got put on Mexican SKY like Magic Kids, no, this was basic TV channels, and hey, while i wasnt a big fan of the dubbers at the time, i really enjoy the show so much it broke my heart that it never aired again after 98, it just quietly dissapeared, around the same time TMS was showing dubs of their shows like Detective Conan, BT'X, and St Tail, while Televisa somehow got ahold of Virtua Fighter, and during 98 at the height of DBZ during the Cell Saga, Azteca 7 actually premiered the Rayearth OVAS on regular national (syndication) TV.So yeah, Rayearth has always had a place in my heart, and i kinda had a crush on Hiks when i was young.
>>283107848Which brings me a question, i know this announcement was a wetfucking fart and nothing will happen until Maaaaaybe June 2026 (8 more fucking months) before they show a damn PV and then a 2027 release date!But i wonder, will they consider the original angelinian actresses to voice the girls in a latino dub? apparently the main 3 plus Juan Zadala aint that old, barely entering their 60s
>>283107784I'm sure they'll reduce height differences too.
we safe horny now
>>283107908>>283107784And no more pointy chins.
>>283107930>>283107908Shota will de de-shotified.
>>283107917Precures do have breasts.
>>283107610Even Tokyo Mew Mew's battle scenes are more exciting than this anime.
How are they going to adapt for modern audiences a love triangle between two 30ish old guys and a 14 years old girl that looks like 10?
>>283107908CLAMP's art is still gorgeous as fuck but they stopped drawing their male characters like this. Even as a yaoi fearing male, I prefer this male aesthetic over the current one. Such a damn shame.
>>283107966>two 30ish old guysTheir ages are unknown. But they will shrink them in size for sure.
Nova was actually a good addition to the anime. If they remove her, they'll make their project even more hollow.
>>28310804590% of the budget of this anime was wasted on the OP and ED.
>>283108028Damn shame.
>>283108117Somebody has been fucking around with the colour balance. Yuck.
What if they made Lantis and Eagle even bigger while making Hikaru's skirt smaller?
>>283108139You'd think Shueshia would object to Jojo characters appearing in a Kodansha book.....
>>283104873You know nothing about women you stupid incel garbage NEET. The fuck would a sexless fat virgin know what pretty, what sexy, what beautiful is when you spend all your day rotting in your basement.... as if those things wouldn't overlap most of the times you fucking retard. Seriously kill yourself and never talk about any of those goddesses ever again.
>>283099677spoken like an idiot who never actually touched the manga
>>283108028This anime, you dig around and you'll probably find that even Zagato was like 18 oldest.
>>283108188>>>/out/
>>283088167Haters gonna 8, but now it makes me want a Love Hina adaptation true to the mango and its art, like the OVAs but improved.
>>283098789Only good CLAMP anime are Sakura and Angelic Layer, the rest have fair superior manga
I always wanted to check out Rayearth, I guess now I have a reason to do so. 50 episodes is pretty long though, maybe I should read the manga instead?
>>283108431If you think the anime is too long, first off, fuck you but secondly the manga will be too short. Also seriously quit treating your fucking hobby like it's homework.
>>283108449I can marathon a 50-episode show no problem, as long as it grabs me, like Gundam for example. But knowing this genre, and seeing how the manga is only six volumes, I'm wondering if most of those 50 episodes are pure filler.
>>283108306Kobato is forgotten...
>>283108483Just quit being a bitch by "Wondering" and try it. Good fucking lord. The first season is only 20 episodes and ends on a solid note by itself if you don't want to watch more. Good lord. If you can waste time here being a pud you can try a fucking episode.
>>283108524Alright, alright, jeez.
>>283108431Watch the first 20 episodes first you lazy fatfuck. It's not like you do anything else meaningful with your time.
>>283108559the other anons are right, you are being a lazy bitch.
>>283090706It'd be really funny if half the first episode looked like this, just like the original anime.

>>283088413You think so? I wonder if people would be upset over loosing the magical girl part since that was never in the manga. Also you know they're definitely gonna censor the skin walking tranny.
>>283108483Stuff being "filler" or generally original to the anime adaptation doesn't make it bad.

enough with the demakes, japan, don't be cringe like the westoids
>>283110035when everything else you can do is yet another narou-based trashy light novel or an original written by a narou-tier shit writer, remaking an old classic seems like a better thing.
>>283109833That's fair. I am mostly thinking about the anime original episodes of the 1981 Urusei Yatsura series and the vast majority of Lupin III anime.

>>283110851It's alllllright/10
What are the chances of the fujobait between the two being kept?
>>283111106sorry sis but eagle only dates underaged girls
>>283111106A lot the fujo and shoujo aspects will get played up a lot.
Change and make it yuri this time, otherwise it's shit for trannies
>>283110399still would
>>283111285be honest, there isn't anyone in this thread who wouldn't all three
>>283111225You're the reason why everyone hates /u/tards. Can't even appreciate a classic shoujo manga, you filthy philistine.
>>283108154Things must have been different back then...
>>283111634Fuu and Umi are for breedingHikaru is for gentle headpat
>>283111847I want to spar with Hikaru and Umi.
>>283111847I wouldn't Fuu. Don't want to catch STDs.
>>283111223I wouldn't be so sure, lately some anime is censoring gay shit again, and Eagle is one of the most important characters in part 2. They might dial down his feelings for Lantis.
No yuzurenai negai no watch
>>283111634I'd rather the Tard twins.
>>283112141Which one? Both?
>>283111847>Hikaru is for gentle wombpatsFTFY
>>283090376This right here, unironically.
>>283111225/u/ talking about trannies lmao
Still have some powers without transform is one of unique aspect I want to exist in more magical girl shows.
>>283112273They have always been divorced from reality, they are something to pity and maintain a healthy distance away from.
>>283111225This, but unironically.
>>283112162Of course.
>>283108028CLAMP was really crazy enough to put Jotaro and Kakyon everywhere in their older series
>>283109833>Even when it IS the original writer, they can sometimes still fuck up and piss people offThe only ones who will get mad are the followers of the Death Of The Author cult.
>>283088011I miss cell animation.
>>283087459this is shameless fantasy but in a good way. it combines magic and robots, nit sure if it was the first with this concept because escaflowne also did this too.i cannot wait for first time watchers to be going all nuts over that one faggot
>>283111225>Change and make it yuri this timeCLAMP hates your kind and wants you troons to stop infecting the Magical Girl genre and go somewhere else.
>>283111106>What are the chances of the fujobait between the two being kept?It’s CLAMP, what do you think?
>>283108505It was boring, sorry
>>283113303I'll just leave this here.
>>283114367Oh no! Not a moegar mecha pilot in a moegar mecha pilot thread!
>>283111740That's a doujin.
>>283111223>A lot the fujo and shoujo aspects will get played up a lot.Good. Hopefully this sparks a renaissance for the Magical Girl genre to finally return to it’s roots.
>>283113141CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES
>>283111225But yuri is for troons
>>283111225Clamp is as traditional as you can get when it comes to shoujo. They're much more interested in adult men banging middle school girls.
I heard this show is apparently /m/? Are the action scenes any good, or are they just pure stock footage like Sailor Moon?
>>283118579early on they do reuse some stock shots of the girls main attacks but is not nearly as bad or repetitive as Sailormoon, and we get to see many times when those are animated from different angles, also the girls usually use their weapons to attack monsters, but you stil get zoom out panning shots.They do show more grit and violence then Sailormoon, and yes, the girls can get wrecked quite often.
>>283119235Neat. I'll check it out.
>>283118579I mean don't go in expecting Escaflowne but its not just moon prism power makeup x 3
>>283119235Well this was TMS Entertainment, not Toei.
>>283110469https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy25CwEttHE
It can't be any worse than the terrible second season of the original.
>>283120086that was a great season because the manga was shit.
>>283119235I haven't watched Rayearth in over a decade but wasn't this the episode that was strangely violent for Season 1's standards? I just remember a strange episode where the artstyle was slightly off (not bad, but different and there was more slightly blood and violence compared to the rest.
>>283088167It's money. It's just money. What the fuck is wrong with all these paranoid conspiracy answers, it's literally just money.Look at it from the uncreative, mercenary corpo perspective. Here's something that was popular. Here's something that worked. It must look like a sure fucking thing to these people. Obviously something newer would be better, you'd think so too if you were in charge of a company that only survives by convincing people to spend money on new shit they don't need. You don't need to take a risk, they think, because obviously the thing is already made. Just do it again. You just nip and tuck here, make it "better" for the "modern market," and voila, a sure thing.The quality is poorer for larger reasons (like the debasement of the industry in cost cutting while simultaneously the animators no longer accepting peanuts for their work), but most importantly because the company doesn't think quality control matters if there's a known name attached. These fuckers will eat up anything, they think, they know, because that's all they see everyday of their job: idiots eating up shit they know is poor quality.That's why all these remakes get made. It's that fucking simple: the money men think it's a sure thing in these increasingly uncertain times and then cut corners to squeeze out more profit. That's fucking it. Jesus christ.
Does anyone have the screencap of that post listing all of the remakes, random sequels and reboots of 10+ year old anime in 1998-1999?
Started watching it. For TMS, the animation is surprisingly good. A lot of it is very static, but they're definitely trying to make the frames look as good as possible despite that. Reminds me of Studio Deen's stuff from that era.
>>283120164So much great cel art wasted for a complete nothing burger story. I hope some nip ends up making an ero-RPG remake of S2 where the girls actually get to travel across post-pillar Cephiro and fuck up villains that are worth half a shit with their mechs.
>>283088167Because Frieren became extremely popular, and isekai is also trending right now. Of course something like Rayearth would get remade.
>>283117604No, straight men jack off to yuri.
>>283120525It was made before Secret of Cerulean Sand's bombing so TMS still had their talent.
>>283121631>metion the company name>HE shows up on /a/FUCK
>>283111740>Sonic thinks he is part of the team
>>283121654Secret of Cerulean Sand is a real show.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_of_Cerulean_Sand
>>283121672Didn't TMS also work on Sonic X?Nowadays, they seem to have a reputation as a slop factory (who also made all Western cartoons from the 80s and 90s look good), but they technically gave birth to Ghibli, Madhouse, and Ufotable.
>>283121889>Sonic XWasn't their main focus, at the time Uninhabited Planet Survive! was their main focus.
>>283121931>Wasn't their main focusMaybe it should've been, but I guess, like the rest of Japan, they didn't realize how huge Sonic was in the rest of the world.>Uninhabited Planet SurviveNever heard of it.
I like how they specifically call that bitch middle-aged like it's an insult. One of the main principles of shoujo, total hag death.
>>283122005Heres the thing, TMS wanted to make a Shenmue anime to advertise Shenmue 2's Xbox port, but because Shenmue 2 wasn't getting a PS2 port (since Xbox wasn't selling in Japan) and Yuji Naka had alot of control and leeway over Sega we got Sonic X instead, it wouldn't be until 2022 that we would get a Shenmue anime from them, and thats only because Wellesley Wild wouldn't let TMS get Animaniacs back when they needed it the most and forced them to do a Shenmue anime that nobody asked for (Warner Bros owned Crunchyroll at that time) while Animaniacs got butchered to death.Plus TMS lost interest in doing a Shenmue anime by that point anyway, and because it bombed so badly TMS refuses to do any more Sega projects such as a rejected 4th season of Sonic X (they did the cut scenes to Sonic Superstars to make them shut up about making more Sonic X) and a gag orientated Golden Axe series (which ended up at Titmouse).>TL;DR: You didn't watch Shenmue: The Animation so we're not doing another season of Sonic X nor a Golden Axe anime.>Never heard of it.Here you go.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninhabited_Planet_Survive!
>>283122226>He's hereFUCK
>>283122226>TMS refuses to do any more Sega projects such as a rejected 4th season of Sonic XSo Sega wanted to do it, but TMS refused? That's unusual, but I guess it makes sense.
>>283119235Hikaru is fucking Metal
>>283122286Because nobody watched Shenmue: The Animation.
>>283120525>For TMS, the animation is surprisingly goodIs TMS known for bad animation?
>>283122387No one ever gave a shit about Shenmue anyway, especially outside of Japan.
>>283089048I don't think the original MKR had nudity?
>>283122468No, at most it had Sailor Moon-esque naked henshin.
>>283122434Now of days they only do shoddy knock offs, but back in the 80s and 90s they were the gold standard of the animation industry, second only to Disney Feature Animation.TMS was so good that even Ghibli was using them on Porco Rosso and Mononoke Hime.
>>283122225In Fuu's case, being a bitch while being all smiley is part of her charm.
>>283088373Yeah no. Don't you know that the reboot MAY be very well a retelling of the manga?That we'll have shit like God Mokona?I will only and only be at ease if this won't be the manga faithfully turned into an anime and that instead it will be like the previous anime, but expanded.There is too much to fuck up here and I'm too pessimistic about reboots and remakes these days.
>>283099819>I'm glad they're going to get rid of it. It's not appealing for today's modern audiencesYou and the rest of the non-existent modern audience belong on the surface of Pluto.
>>283103288You and me (and that if Rayearth gets again into SRW, then along with Iczer so that there would be a gag where she gets mistaken as one).
>>283122459Should've done a Yakuza anime instead.I will say that the anime versions of Joy amd Xiuyin were hot, and I liked the OP.
Chibis stopped being a thing in modern anime because they were a cost-saving measure during the age of cel animation. Chibis don't have to be properly animated, they just kinda waddle across the screen and animate like slideshows. In an era when we don't do cels anymore, that stuff doesn't save much money anymore, drawing full scenes is not any different from drawing chibis, both go through the same digital process. That's why we see many PowerPoint presentations, but no chibis.I think only Trigger still uses those old cel techniques in shows like Panty and Stocking, but mostly as a stylistic choice.
>>283099819>Today's audiences don't enjoy the magic of cute chibisI finally found out what's wrong with contemporary anime industry.
>>283111847You think Hikaru would be all naive and innocent but remember she has three older brothers and she probably still takes baths with them.
I wonder if Clamp actually did just copy Ranma's design. It would've been pretty common back then.
after this thread, no more threads will be made cause we got nothin
>>283125409there are worse fates
>>283125481Indeed there are.
