Why did this fail to capture the audiences in the same way Orb did?People were talking about Orb being transcendental, visionary, groundbreaking, one of the greatest shows to ever grace anime with its thought-provoking story meanwhile 100 meters received at best a lukewarm reception at the start and was immediately forgotten like a wet fart in the wind.What happened?
>>287438901it's a nice movie but it's ended a while ago and there's not much to talk about, we know togashi won
>>287438901Cuz it was mediocre. Sure its pretty, but the characters are boring as fuck
>>287438931>it's a nice movie butThat's exactly what I mean.The general response to this was "it was okay I guess" while Orb was like "this is the best thing ever created and a game changer for anime" and is still talked about and has essays made on it.What went wrong?Where did the author fuck up this time?
>>287438952it's literally a movie dude, do you think people talk about movies? who the fuck talks about your name? even though it's a success
>>287438983What the fuck man?Movies are literally the most popular and discussed medium there is.Everyone still talks about your name, if you were to ask someone to recommend you a good anime movie there's a 99% chance they'd say your name.
>>287438901Uoto is dogshit at characterization. "Orb" was the same as well. Plus, the motif is done to death. There is quite literally nothing about this movie that hasn't been done before. That's why there is nothing to talk about, maybe besides the visual direction.
How is it anything like Orb? It's a generic shounen sports story.
>>287438901What is wrong with you that you can't see after just a moment of thought why an anime about the cosmos and mankind's place trying to understand it from the inside might evoke more intense emotions in more people than a movie about sports
>>287438901its garbage
>>287439172>>287439328well then why the fuck did he make a movie about sports after making orb
>>287438901Unfortunately it released after the kino that was Umamusume cinderella gray part 2 which was a much better version of the same story. Perhaps if it came out at a different time it would have a chance but not under a titan.
>>287439414Because he wants money from sports shounenfag who want an emotional jerk-off session due to how untalented they are at real sports.
>>287438901I liked it but the ending pissed me off.
>>287439509why
>>287438901It was average and they cut a whole lot of the exposition and characterization from the manga which is one of Uoto's strong points.
>>287438901>why do people like some things and not others?Maybe some things suck.
>>287438901lack of characterizationmultiple disorienting timeskips with characters that are quickly discardedoverdramatic scenes where people go full retard in publicno focus on the specific training required for sprinting and times are barely even mentionedscale feels small, finale is just national championshipspredictable and annoying ending
>>287438901Because it's a sports anime. I'm not willing to watch a sports anime however good people say it is.
>>287441445What's wrong with sports anime?Haikyu is like one of the best anime ever made.
>>287438901Overrated, just another sports anime. It tries to be deep like Ping Pong but ends up being more like Haikyuu
>>287441804Haikyu is cheesy and childish. It's like a battle shonen. Not that it's terrible, but it's just a regular cheesy anime, not the best anything
>>287438998>Movies are literally the most popular and discussed medium there is.Anime movies aren't.>Everyone still talks about your name, if you were to ask someone to recommend you a good anime movie there's a 99% chance they'd say your name.This is not a good thing.
