What's the verdict on Kara no Kyoukai?
>>288669245I always confuse the name with Kyoukai no Kanata
>>288669245meh
I want to have loving sex and then cuddle with Shiki
>>288669261
>>288669245It ranks high in the Nasuverse and a very good anime film series by itself. Even its weakest films (6) has nice action and interesting shit going on. Blows most anime films released in the past five years out of the water
It really is an anime
>>288669284This is the first time I've ever felt lust towards Shiki, good job.
>>288669338Shiki (Male) was cuteShiki (Sans Male) was dullLeo should've raped her
Fine? Probably on the more subtle side of things from Nasu.
>>288669284Shiki is meant to be a flat tomboy. If you can only find her hot if artists give her a gigantic ass and balloon titties, you don't actually like her character.
>>288669690>flatshe's perfectly average, anon
>>288669245Everything written by Nasu is shit.
>>288669690I don't recall her being flatAt the very least she's shown to have very delicious looking thighs when weednigga is molesting her
I watched the first two movies and really didn't like them. Call me a retard or whatever, but I've never been a fan of nonlinear narratives. None of the characters were memorable or likable, and once it was revealed that the main character had a split personality, I just completely lost interest and stopped watching.
>>288669245patriot
>>288669760the nonlinear thing is an active detriment to the story really
>>288669760>I've never been a fan of nonlinear narrativesNeither am I, but I watched the movies after reading the Wikipedia synopsis so understood what was going on and hung around for Kajiura's soundtrack and cool action sequences
>>288669708>>288669690>I leave Akitaka and head back to the building. Locking myself up in my room, I take off my gi. I stare at the mirror... A woman's body is reflected back at me. If I were to put on some make-up, and pull a scary face, I might be able to look like a guy; but there's nothing that can be done about the body. My body, that grows every day, that is sending SHIKI into despair.From p. 46 of Murder Speculation (Part 1)

>>288669245My opinion is the popular one, which is that Paradox Spiral is really good.
>>288669829anon...
There's a scene in the seventh movie where you can see Ryougi showering and she's pretty damn flat.
>>288669245best fitting soundtrack ever

>>288670084>Aniplex convinces Takeuchi to convince Nasu to start FGOgod why
>>288670048>didn't kiss shiki to drug her>kisses her boyfriendwhat
>>288670129FGO got Type-Moon a very beneficial contract with Sony where Nasu is still in 100% control. They don't permit any Fate project without their intimate involvement.>Iwakami: It started off with Aniplex working with Type-Moon to bring Fate to anime form with Fate/Zero. And not just the Fate series. In 2007, we did The Garden of Sinners movies. After we were done with Fate/Zero, we were talking with Takeshi Takeuchi of Type-Moon about a new way to develop Fate, and a smartphone game was one of the ideas that we came up with. So Type-Moon started working on Fate/Grand Order as one of the official numbered titles in the Fate series.>However there was a problem: FGO was meant to be developed for smartphones, this became a problem for Nasu - the difference of platforms, that and mainly, Nasu did not own smartphones prior to this project, so he had no experience in smartphone games. Nasu's reason behind this was because smartphones are so convenient, that if he started using it he will then "turn useless as a result". So to change his mindset, Takeuchi bought him a smartphone, and one day when Nasu goes to work as usual, he saw a smartphone being placed on his desk, with games installed for him. The games Nasu then used to refer for the project would be "Chain Chronicles" and "Brave Frontier". It was then Nasu discover the potential of smartphone games. This would then aligned with the vision Takeuchi wanted as well since Type-Moon wanted to catch up with the times, the times where a visual novel games for the niched would then shuffled and moved into current times - where people can access and game and anywhere, anytime.

>>288670601breast tissue in women expands during pregnancy and typically remains that size
>>288669245At the time I loved it.
>>288669245Paradox Spiral is one of the greatest things I've ever watched. The rest are okay.
>>288670945Is the person to Araya's right Lio or Touko? Can't really tell with the funky colours.
>>288669245Shirou and her get along surprisingly well to the point that some speculate they are having an affair. In truth they have passionate and heated discussions on swords like two retards.
>>288671422How is Mikiya okay with all of that, though. What man would let his woman cohabitate with another man she took in from the street?
>>288671441a cuckbesidestomoe had more chemistry with shiki's nothing as fuck personality, being nothing himself
>>288669245It is really bad.

Mirai Fukuin is one of the best movies ever made in the history of cinema.
>>288670140He was literally dressed as her and imitating her.
>>288673514and
>>288669284Juicy
>>288670945I should rewatch this one specifically.
>>288674226imagine sinking your teeth into it
MILF Shiki is so fucking hot.
>>288674530meh
>>288669245Its a favorite of mine
>>288675332Why is she like this?
>>288673514funny because shiki never kisses mikiya on screen
>>288669245The novel is better. You should read the novel.
>>288674530Only one kid?
>>288669245they had a penis tower in the 5th oneand people take this seriously as a legitimate franchise
>>288674530mogged by her daughter
1 > 5 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 8 > 7 > 6 > Epilogue
the 6th movie was so bad I still dont believe it. the 5th one was a masterpiece
I still think it is baffling they made an experimental film in the "girl with magic eyes murders magic stuff series"
There's a concrete reason why 5 is this big resolution point everything builds up to and then 6 is an incest plot and 7 is weirdly horny and it's that as far as the source material goes 1 through 5 were published on a website but 6 and 7 were written afterwards to be sold at Comiket.
>>288677980This
>>288677980>her>implying she's not a barren bitch posing as the mother to cover the blatant incest child
>>288681979Mana has the Ryougi schizophrenia, she's Shiki's daughter.
>>288674530Yakuza wife>>288681979Azaka cope
>>288682019Kokutou marrying into the yakuza will never not be incredibly funny.Even though he is surprisingly well-connected given the sort of person he is.
>>288681994Shiki can make her her spiritual daughter even if she came from a different womb.
>>288670945I remember seeing Araya ripping out the wizard ladys heart as a gif on gurochan like 15 years ago. Tried to find the sauce but to no avail. Was fucking mindblown watching that movie last year and having that long forgotten memory resurface
>>288672866German too
>>288674530Isn't that shot from the fourth movie, though. Where she has long hair after waking up from her coma.
>>288683313On a second thought, yeah, probably not.
>>288677980I can't really mentally picture Ryougi and Mikiya ever having sex as much as the existence of Mana proves that they did in fact have sex. Their relationship as you see in the movies is completely platonic, you never get the sense that they physically desire each other like men do women and women do men.
I know Paradox Spiral is the "best" movie in a conventional sense, but Overlooking View is my personal favourite because of its aesthetics.
>>288683414>you never get the sense that they physically desire each other like men do women and women do men.There's one scene where Shiki invites him to stay over, and they sleep in the same bed, and he just falls asleep and she lays there silently seething due to being blueballed.
>>288684342Yeah, exactly lol.
>>288683313Pretty sure it's from Extra Chorus.
>>288684565I thought it was from Mirai Fukuin when bomber boy becomes an employee of Shiki, the matriarch of the Ryougi-gumi.
>>2886834965 is the "best" precisely in an unconventional sense, it's just the most parroted. In a conventional sense it would be 7 or Future Gospel.
MILF Ryougi best Ryougi.
>>288669245bad adaptation of the novelsgreat series with no context
>>288672343>puste graniceWhat a dogshit fucking translation. While it can be read both ways, it's blatanlty boundary OF emptiness, that's what it is fucking ABOUT, the personality as a hollow temple which encompasses [ ]. With that kind of error in the title, I strongly doubt they got any of the zen buddhist shit on point.
Someone explain Yakuza Ryougi Shiki, as far as i understood the family is just an old group of demon hunters, which gives them money and status.like the family from Tsukihime.
>>288686888>… It was exactly two years ago. My debts were piling up from this office’s rent and livingexpenses, and at last the creditors had come calling.>The problem was that the creditors’ boss was the area representative… of a mostly violent criminal syndicate. As the mere mention of their surname had me shuddering and contemplating life on a fishing boat or oil rig, I was filled with a desire to leave this town, and fast. The girl materialized out of that dilemma.>With a “Mr. Kamekura, this is an honor,” and such, she forced her way in, book in hand, and the demonic black-suited young men made their exit.>As soon as I had breathed a sigh of relief, their boss, the Devil itself, appeared, and while I looked on dumbfounded, pulled me from the jaws of death by making me a member of their group.>“Perfect. I was just wanting an in-house detective agency. You, you’re in charge. You oughta be good at that. Huh, you do picture books? Sure, if that’s all it is. I’m not a demon. I’ll let you moonlight at least that much.”>And thus, I found myself running a detective agency – or to put it novelistically, I was in the investigative industry – while working on picture books, and stripped of my constancy. The girl was my benefactor and the big boss’s only daughter.

>>288669245KNK 1 was saved by the director and has much better pacing than the original novel.KNK 2 is okay, but it leaves dialogue and lore unadapted, leaving the viewer without context for the characters' actions for no apparent reason.KNK 3 has the same problems as 2, but the pacing is better since the story is different and doesn't suffer as much.KNK 4 has the same problems as 2, but worse, since the story is completely different. A lot of world-building and explained concepts weren't adapted for any apparent reason.KNK 5 KINO, despite leaving out a lot of lore, philosophical themes, and character development (specifically Araya), I recommend reading the novel to fully appreciate the film.KNK 6 is a fanfiction tier. The novel and the film are two completely different things in every way.KNK 7 is very good, with some pacing issues and the same problems as the previous films. However, a good ending from UFO.Epilogue, Extra corus, and Mirai Fuyukin are good as bonus stories.
>>288687348...Touko?
>>288687365Are those recent translations by Beast's Lair any good?
>>288687376What did shiki want with Touko? Touko was in debt, ok, but why was Shiki her benefactor?
>>288687405The narrator is Mitsuru Kamekura from Mirai Fukuin, not Touko. Haven't you seen the movie adaptation?
>>288687440I got it mixed, youre talking about Shiki's daughter.
>>288669245I watched it for the first time this year (past the first movie or two) and it was pretty kino.
>>288670084>Nasu wanted an original routeWhat could have been...>SHAFT anime. Complete flop and nobody liked itI watched the first episode but then realized it was a sequel to the game, which I dropped midway through because the rock-paper-scissors mechanic was so damn dumb.
>>288670945It was pretty good, although I was disappointed at blondie jobbing so quickly to dirty red.>>288682052I'm sure his cop brother didn't have any issues with it as well.
>>288689416he doesn't exist
Deeply Buddhist in temperament yes I like nasu for this. I’m disillusioned with anime and feel pretty much all of the new shows since the 10s feel half hearted and LARP. This one of the few anime worth watching in itself, that it is wholly great. . Most anime even if you have discerning taste only occasionally good or worth watching for the texture and colors… of historical interest with something ocassionally good… but mostly you watch because you enjoy medium and the anticipation of something ideal even though it mostly disappoints. Knk definitely in my anime canon where it also has this beautiful image but also not imbecile in execution… it is executed beautifully.
