I mean come on it's just a bit too over the top, isn't it?
Dramaslop.
>>288516198the intention is to make you relate throught takopi's eyes viewing all these very extreme situation
>>288516198Forced kino
>>288516224I mean I get that, I definitely felt a bit more engaged whenever Takopi was directly involved in a situation.>>288516232I don't know about forced, but I guess I do want to say this did have some pretty phenomenal directing.
>>288516245>some pretty phenomenal directing.Huh? It wasn't anything special. Unless it was your first ever non-battle shounenshit I guess.
>>288516383I have seen 10x as much anime as you little buddy. This show was very well directed, saying it's not "anything special" is a flat out lie, even if you thought it was bad it's basically impossible to deny it's got unique directing.
>>288516198Who the hell wants 'mild' or 'balanced' suffering porn
>>288516430Wow, 10x!? How many is that?
>>288516498I guess that's a good point. I wouldn't say I wanted something "balanced" or "mild" though. I'm trying to think of something I've seen that's similar that I like more, but unsurprisingly it's not particularly easy.I guess something like Made In Abyss? Obviously they're wildly different shows so don't take this comparison too seriously, but MIA has a lot of really over the top suffering and agony in it as well, but I guess to me it just feels in service of something bigger. I'm also comparing something that's 6 episodes long to something with two seasons and a movie so that's just another level of unfairness.
>>288516551>it just feels in service of something biggerthat's helped in large part just by having a concrete goal of "reach bottom of hole" and solving the mystery of "what is at the bottom of hole"It evokes this feeling that everything that's happening is foreshadowing something about what's at the bottom of holeIt's also not finished yet, and who knows where the author may choose to go with it.
>>288516198>I mean come on it's just a bit too over the top, isn't it?Idk I liked it. wasnt too long or too short. all of the main characters are sympathetic yet unsympathetic at the same time which is neat. Man I feel bad for the blonde girl.
>>288516551>bviously they're wildly different shows so don't take this comparison too seriously, but MIA has a lot of really over the top suffering and agony in it as wellI remember when I first read MIA it was hard but I couldnt stop reading it because it was so good. Same thing for when I first watched the anime. Ive reread it and rewatched the anime several times and now I dont even flinch. So coming from that to watching this I didnt find it too bad. Higurashi is the only other thing I can think of that gets close at times but that wears you down too.
>>288516198I thought she had an afro, or was wearing one of those british guard hats
>>288516498I want an actual well thought out story, not gratuitous displays of abuse and violence
>>288518468>an actual well thought out storyname five examples
>>288516198maybe its over the top but its not suffering porn just for sake of it its actually a good tragedy story
>>288518558Boku no Pico, Pico to Chico, Pico x Coco x Chico...uuuuh...Kodomo no Jikan, and Legend of the Galactic Heroes
>>288518558Jackie Chan
>>2885165130 x 10
>>28851937310000000000?! that's a lot of anime
>>288516210Slop slop
>>288516198>Reviving someone dead?No, no shit's impossible, beyond my powers. You can't just mess with the natural order of things>Restarting the universe?At once my queen. Timespace is simply a tool I play with, the hell with consequences.I can't take forced drama like this seriously
>>288516198I liked it. I find this theme to be simple but I feel like a lot of people on the internet are too retarded for it>those who are victims can be a perpetrator and the same person who is good in one situation can be evil in anotherIf you look at xitter or trannysky you will notice that most retards are incapable of understanding this. People in high profile cases are either viewed as dindu nuffin saints or the most evil and depraved individual ever; with absolutely no inbetween or gray area.
>>288516198It does end up being kind of silly, even if it has the restraint to pull through alright in the ending.
>>288521536Not to mention>I am happy happy octopus who specializes in helping kids laugh and play!>wuh wuh wuhhhhhhhhtttt!!!! I thought sadness is when you get booboos! or dropped an icecream! I'm friggin freaking out because I'm not actually a specialist in helping children I'm just the mangaka jabbing the magical girl genre which has not had an earnest show since the turn of the century! I'm friggin freaking out!!!!!This show really does suffer from the idiot plot. Not to mention that ending is fairly-odd-parents-esque "I wish everything would be wrapped in a bow and normal".
>>288522436There's nothing funnier than reading a post and realizing this person has no real complaints but instead is just someone with debilitating autism and a chip on their shoulder.
>>288516198the writing is bad in general but the animation and direction are pretty good to be fair. its a decent anime, and its very short
