This might be one of the best-looking seasons so far this decade.
So many shows with great visuals and animation, it's kinda surprising.

I only ever watched the Oshii anime, but from knowing other Oshii movies, and other Shirow OVAs, I always suspected that to be the case. The actual core of GitS discussion and story seemed to be way weaker than the cinematography and whatever Oshiisms I could find in it.

Old /a/ flamed Narutards and other forms of low IQ shounenfaggots. Now we have people unironically praising Mushoku Tensei while trashing some of the only anime this season trying something different. Embarrassing.

It's funny how most of this thread is retards who are probably in their 20s talking about "muh old /a/" all while saying retarded shit like this.
Narutards were hated because there were tons of them and they spammed low quality threads and were evidently not part of the board and typically from different sites.
Had Mushy Tensy been airing in the 2000s though, it would've been one of /a/'s favourites. Zero no Tsukaima was one of /a/'s favourites throughout all four seasons it had.
>>
It would be extremely embarrassing if there were people who had been watching anime since the early 2000s (at least) who nonetheless consider Mushoku Tensei one of their favorites.

Luckily all these
>OLDFAG HERE, LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT OLD /a/
posters are just zoomers who think that
1) their browsing of /r/whatwas4chanlike counts as historical research
and
2) that what /a/ at the peak of its shit taste thought matters today. Statistically speaking, /a/ reached its best taste in 2009~2013 because I started posting here in 2009, which sharply increased the average taste of this board.

>It would be extremely embarrassing if there were people who had been watching anime since the early 2000s (at least) who nonetheless consider Mushoku Tensei one of their favorites.
It really wouldn't. I know I made you upset, but again, Zero no Tsukaima was extremely popular.
Zero no Tsukaima was a harem isekai story with an main character so generic that an entire genre of isekai story is propped up essentially by going "ZnT but the main character is me / my OC".

The irony is that the only /a/ that aligns with the tastes of anyone here is the current one, because there's a large contingent of people who'll agree with whatever the fuck it is you're trying to say.
>>
>>289345946

Projecting. I don't care what slop was popular in whichever era. Nobody gives a shit about it today, which is exactly what I would've said if I had posted in its slop general. Everything I predict will be forgotten gets forgotten. I am the ultimate arbiter of good taste.

In the end, all of you losers lost anyway, because Dorohodero (Season 2) won the AotY for everyone who has good taste. I don't care that they censored the nipples, it wasn't their decision, it was forced upon them.

And if SBR counted towards 2026 it would be the AotY instead, but I guess all the good episodes will be in 2027.

Anon, it's MAPPA, they absolutely 100% censored the nipples of their own volition.
They did the same thing with Idaten.
>>
>>289345821
I think it peaked earlier than that. K-on's moe invasion was the beginning of the end and then you got SAO that introduced slop fantasy and isekai eventually to the genre that fucked everything. The period from the 2003-2008 was where the variety and quality peaked. There were a lot of outstanding shows that were forgotten like Mai-Hime and 11 One Outs that were groundbreaking and good but got overshadowed by even better shows we remember now. We're never getting stacked seasons like that again where you have too much to watch and even B tier shows were great. I personally stopped following anime every season after being into it for 5-6 years from 2004 to 2006. My only regret maybe is lurking too long before posting here. I could've been an immature little shit and gotten away with it.

Oh I don't deny that, but it was fewer and farther in between for a bunch of reasons. And even 2011 wasn't that bad, Madoka aired that year which was the big one and you had other series like Stein's Gate and Fate/Zero but for me, the winter season even with that last season didn't interest me initially so I skipped it and that was the first season I skipped. Maybe it was the fatigue and etc. from following it and I got busy IRL but I have gone back and seen stuff like HxH and Majikoi. The earthquake though felt like it shifted the industry in a different direction forever.

I also like the 00s the most but for different reasons. It was the decade that had the highest amount of anime originals(also my favorite aesthetic, especially the early 00s). I've watched anime from every other decade before and after but I still come back to the 00s because of what they have to offer. However I've never watched seasonal anime like you did. I've been watching anime for almost 2 decades now and I've never watched more than 2, max 3 anime at a time because it's not my style so I can only judge anime on an yearly/decennial basis rather than a seasonal one.

I am also watching Danko, but I'll need to see more to see if I find the visuals particularly impressive, same with Let's Go Kaikigumi. I do think that visually they're both quite nice, animation-wise it's a bit more mixed.
Pic related is my current list.

>>289353395
That's way too many shows to realistically keep track of. For every anime you watch you also have to:
>download, sort, and seed the torrent. don't forget allocate all that space on your drive
>composite a post-watch analysis to properly gather thoughts
>screenshot every interesting frame, create webms, and stitch panning shots
>obligatory thread participation to discuss and compare thoughts
You can't do all that for every single one of those anime.
>>
>>289352305
Four comfy shows although none are particularly visually striking: Dodge Danko, Neko to Ryuu, Magilumiere (season 2 though) and Hanaori-san

>>289353548

I dunno about best looking but compared to the last few seasons there's at least some interesting premises and variety. Yani Neko is a 100% old /a/ core, and despite what shitposters say, shows like Mushoku Tensei, GiTS and Youjo Senki at least have an identity to them. Now, that Sayonara Lara first couple of episodes were not good at all, but there's so many watchable shows that I don't think it matters all that much.

Narratively, the first episode was a mess. It was like a crach course on how to not tell a story, but if you enjoyed the retro visuals gimmick then more power to you, I guess.

It reminds me of the 2000s shoujo and I don't count the 2000s as retro. The pacing was pretty fast in the first episode but the narrative wasn't really a mess imo. Anyways post your thoughts about it in 1 of the threads.

It doesn't matter anyway, episode one is already old news. And never tell me what to do, faggot.

>>289357033
I was talking about character design specifically. If you watched any of the old Nippon animation shows back in the late 80s and 90s there were a few shows with a similar aesthetic, Yamato Takeru, 80s Green Gables and Tells of Little Women particularly come to mind. Color is an entirely different conversation.

It looks nothing like it. As for the rest the character designs do take some elements from wmt and ghibli stuff(which are of course extremely intertwined) but that's not the big deal , since some anime in 2010s and 2000s used those designs(and of course a fairy tale story would like to adapt a wmt related art style, only a dumbfuck would call it a gimmick). What makes it stand out is the coloring, that's all that fucking matters. This is what's missing from most post-2010s anime.
