The eugenics shit is a sitewide pestilence. Ironic since most of the guys who drone on about bloodlines don't even reproduce or can't land anything besides landwhale single mothers. OR they use their JBW pass to get with a brown/black girl which basically negates their claims (they twist it around and claim they're "colonizing" or some stupid shit)

A Prototype with a Witchblade-esque MC (or a Witchblade game with Prototype gameplay) would kick all sorts of ass.

Witchblade is a mediocre action anime that heavily relies on fanservice and is widely seen by many as a guilty pleasure series. /a/ is largely composed of full of sexually uninhibited people who equate fanservice with quality, so anything with skimpy outfits or jiggling proportions is overrated to hell. Witchblade is a dime-a-dozen edgy action show from the 2000s and people just want to complain about "old good, new bad". But "old" in this case while having that certain mid-2000s charm that may be better than the generic ecchi anime we get now still wasn't very good on its own merits.

Yeah, but in this case, Witchblade isn't as good as you remember. You're just thinking with your dick. It's actually impressive how Gonzo made a show about half-naked chicks in armor fighting each other boring. And the fights weren't even that great either. The only notable thing I remember about Witchblade besides the borderline pornography, is Gonzo pulling a Gonzo ending which pissed off Image Comics (or whoever was publishing Witchblade) by ending the series in a way that prevented them from using the animu to spinoff a Japanese girl Witchblade series.
>>
>>288561607
To be fair there weren't that many fights to begin with, the fanservice was also less frequent of what the advertisement makes it look like.
>>
>>288561607
>>288543930
So much that Topcow would added Masane in the main comic.
>>
>>288561607
>It's actually impressive how Gonzo made a show about half-naked chicks in armor fighting each other boring.
This is the same studio that made "Seven Samurai vs giant mecha" boring.
The same studio that made the fights in HELLSING boring.
Gonzo's great at mood and aesthetic but unless they have unlimited budget like Afro Samurai it's very rare they do everything else right.
>>
>>288562269
for real?
>>
>>288562269
Her appearance in the comics amounted to nothing more but a cameo, and it was such a small cameo that you'd miss it anyway.

The Witchblade anime isn't canon to the comics anyway. The creators of the anime actually really dislike the American comics and just did their own thing, which pissed off the people behind the comics and burned bridges. There is also a manga series that is another completely non-canon entry depart from both.

Nobody is thinking with their dick because the most common compliment paid to the series is the relationship between Masane and Rihoko. I re-watched it a year or so back and I'd say it still holds up albeit it does start to sag towards the end.

>by ending the series in a way that prevented them from using the animu to spinoff a Japanese girl Witchblade series.
I've always liked this about the anime because I'd prefer a self contained story instead of something that has to either conform and fit within the messy TopCow universe, or gets dragged back into said universe years later so the few characters or moments I like can get ruined. Screw what TopCow felt, let us have a fairly solid standalone series and move on with our lives.
>>
>>288563282
That's nothing more but an easter egg and she didn't make a meaningful appearance in the main comics.
>>288563340
Nope. Top Cow Productions and the Japanese anime take very different approaches to the lore and setting, and Gonzo's decision to permanently destroy the Witchblade and the primary wielder also created significant friction with the property's original owners, Top Cow Productions and Image Comics, because the studio effectively closed the door on the possibility of a direct anime spin-off focusing on a young Japanese girl wielding the Witchblade. It's not like the people behind the anime liked Witchblade anyway, they were just paid by Image Comics to adapt it and they did the job tasked to them but they ended up doing their own thing.
>>
>>288563683
Doing their own work was the right choice.

Witchblade had the opposite effect for me. I found it mind-numbingly boring back in the days, and even nowadays it's just another rather mediocre Studio Gonzo title. The mother-daughter story sounds nice on paper, but the actual execution is very superficial; the characters are nice, but also very superficial; the action wasn't good enough to keep me invested and the animation is really bad. So, overall, the anime is mediocre. If Studio Gonzo would focus more on the content and not just the presentation, which they clearly haven't managed in this case, I might have enjoyed the anime today, as the story itself had potential.

Another anime that adapted another American IP, Powerpuff Girls Z, was far more enjoyable to me because while Toei took creative liberties just like Gonzo did, they did so right from the start and cleverly wore the Japanese anime tropes on its sleeves to craft a genuinely entertaining spin-off that can stand on its own.

>>
>>288584310
Nah. I'm just comparing the two, because both shows are American IPs that Japanese studios adapted and both anime deviated from the source material, they also both came out the same year. But while Witchblade failed, Powerpuff Girls Z succeeded because it knew what it was right from the start and leaned into the anime tropes. It was a moderate success in Japan: had respectable TV ratings, ran for 52 episodes and ended on its own terms. The DVD also had solid sales.

Witchblade's trajectory is the complete opposite: it performed poorly in Japan, the TV ratings were consistently low, and DVD/Blu-rays sold very poorly. I think the tonal whiplash of Witchblade caused the mixed to moderate poor reception; because it wanted to blend emotional family drama with erotic fanservice. Powerpuff Girls Z was very consistent, however.

The audiences for the Witchblade anime *are* otaku, though. It occupied a late-night slot. And even within the broader otaku community, the show wasn't popular and struggled to find its footing. I assume they were turned off by the family drama which clashed with the violent, sci-fi, "monster-of-the-week" action, leaving many otaku audiences confused about what the show was actually trying to be. Regardless, Witchblade has always been one of these anime that had a cult following, or a niche within a niche.
