I JUST watched Planetronika and I really liked it. I have my complaints, but first I want to praise the art style and how well it caught the vibe of some old website back when they were bloated with content and were all YOLO and SWAG. Also Bfly is hot, kudos and those ball pet are cute too. Freestyle is also worth to mention, he's cool as well. What I didn't liked is its fast pace and too hyperactive action, like the cute between first game and action suddenly switching on Butterfly's cat. I'd rather saw at least some part basketball game before crazy shenanigans.Overall, its very good. I'm not gonna watch gameoverse because its glitch studio lmao I ain't watching this shit even for money
At least this show is not trying to make a forced general
Imagine if after the creator gets popular enough he creates a Coffin of Andy and Leyley animated adaptation. Butterfly gave me Leyley vibes.
>>153748817I also forgot to mention that the video itself is in 480p. Nice touch to create the atmosphere that you watch something old>>153749039Anon, you're craaaaaaaazy
>>153748817When did internet animators become so fucking unfunny?
It's plotless garbage as a pilot. Just a chain of random animated movements that barely construct anything. artist doesn't know how to storyboard and can't decide if he wants limited animeme shit or over animated lipsink blobs.
>>153748817Stylistically, it's on point, which is impressive since most people fail at emulating the early 00's Japanimation look.It's weirdly horny in a distracting way, though. I understand that that isn't incidental, but it doesn't match the PG kind of attractive the shows, media, and games that looked like this were actually like at the time?Humor was okay. Most of the jokes didn't actually land for me, but it fit the vibe and there were so many that you didn't dwell on those that didn't but smirked at the one's that did instead. I'd definitely watch another 7-11 minute episode of this.
It was alright. It kinda lost me as well but it seems like one of those episodic cartoons which it hopefully is, I don't want any more loreshit at this point.
>>153748940
>>153748940>show Planetronika is a SHORT. Let's not get ahead of ourselves
>>153749851>It's weirdly hornyAs typical for a french cartoon. Look at wakfu, for example.
>>153748817She looks like a discount Winx character
>>153748817I liked it but why the claw fingers? It feels out of place for the era.
>>153752747Every female protagonist in that era had red hair for some odd reason. Sam (Totally Spies), Kim Possible, Bloom (Winx Club), Blossom (Power Puff Girls), the list goes on.
>>153752894I'm referring to the art style
>>153752514>>153748940>>153748817Planetronika is really just a short. I highly doubt it will get to be an entire show picked up by a streaming service or network. The pilot short really doesn't give me a clear idea on what the entire concept is supposed to be about. Pic related. Modifyers released just the pilot, and then nothing else. Most people just see Modifyers as gooner stuff because of Zone.
>>153748817All in all I liked it, I think the biggest complaint was the time card joke lasted a second or two too long, but I think that's more something that just improves with practice.
>>153752876Johnny Test begs to differ
BUTT-erfly!
I started drawing Butterfly and while I was looking for ref images I found dozens of sources talking about WE H8 PLANETRONIKA for fapbait or some other nonsense.The internet that is full of perverts apparently doesn't like butt girl
>>153748817Yeah, I agree with everything you said. I liked the raunchy vibe and art style, but if it was an actual show some extended runtime and breathing room would help it loads.
>>153748940Anon..............................watashi
>>153748817Shame she's not getting 1/10th the attention Gameoverse is getting, i think i like Planetronika more
Since we're discussing indie shows, I quite like this onehttps://youtu.be/2VNkfGgy3BQ?is=q2oKO_UDQVrWTGJc
>>153748817>>153752514>>153755442lol why is this french girl brown?
>>153755889She is Italian
>>153749125It does need some plot to be worked out. Butterfly is a space explorer so it would be cool to get an idea of what that is and a typical episode might look like. I think Freestyle makes things for her but it sounds like that's his Dad's shop so I'm thinking maybe the Dad is a mechanic that fixes her spaceship and Freestyle is a tinkerer/inventor with his Dad possibly not approving of his gizmos. I think that the furry critters are her pets, though they're pretty smart.A cool first episode would be something like introducing Butterfly as this reckless spitfire space adventurer girl that takes dumb risks and gets in over her head and is a bit of a mess. Maybe she stumbles on an abandoned ship and tries to salvage it for loot or is looking for some kind of bounty and instead finds the little critters who have some McGuffin nonsense going on so she takes them with her and winds up on the planet from the pilot and can't find anyone to fix her ship because she's broke. Through some kind of nonsense she gets Freestyle's Dad to agree to at least patch her up enough to get to the next planet and that's when she stumbles on Freestyle tinkering with the blaster and thinks its cool. Maybe she has some item she found with the critters and Freestyle tries helping her figure it out they accidentally activate a homing beacon or something that draws some bad guys to them and they have to fight them off using one of his inventions. Freestyle's Dad tells her to get lost on her patched up ship but Freestyle stows away to help her and they wind up in more trouble ending with the Dad agreeing to fix her ship and let Freestyle build her gadgets while she goes on adventures and they try to crack the item to find a map to a big score or something.Like that would all be done cool set up.
>>153756040>bounty... Hamster?>>>/wsg/6152684
>>153754247Yeah I'm not too sure what this would look like as a full series>>153755889Come on buddy, that's a light tan at most
Bad pilot no clue about the premise
>>153749851>weirdly horny in a distracting way. Oh come off it. Like Totally Spies, Kim Possible and other 2000s stuff didnt have horny shit on the down low.
>>153748817The art is the only praiseworthy part.The writing is nonexistent.I don't understand how you can go through the long tedious process of animating something like this without writing a decent story first. Like that's the easy part that matters the most. Get your priorities straight.
>>153759185I don't think they're going for the 'kids show with deep lore' angle.
>>153759521I think I'm going to Planetronika now
>>153759032>on the down lowThat's the thing, it was on the down low. This feels like a Zone Animation whenever the sex isn't actually happening. There's an odd aura that the girl is about to start blowing someone throughout at any second.
>>153759521I'm not asking for deep lore. Just something resembling a story for the short. Something to tell me what the show is about.Like it seems like there's space stuff going on. Why not do something with that? What does she in space other than play basketball?
>>153759809Bruh, they really DO need to start teaching media literacy.>she has a friendly rivalry with the mechanic guy>his dad as an inventor, she's a free-range kid who carries a lot of stuff on her>she's very tomboy but in a non-trans way>he's down for some athletics but is more nerdy>his dad is a source of power and authority>she's in charge of those furball things who act as comic relief>the planet she's on has a lot of weird and colorful characters>the show is a little bit horny>a sci-fi backdropIt doesn't introduce the main conflict, which is fine; because it introduces the main characters, their dynamic, and the world they're in.
>>153748817The early 2000s thing is so stale. Sick of bland nostalgia worship. I only care about Gameoverse
>>153760226this is meaningless noise for a show, only presented as "told not shown".Yyou talk about "literacy" but you are just drooling at shining noisy keys.
>30th thread in 2 daysbuy an ad, nigger
i see some gameoversefags trying to cope that their show isn't another jewish nepobaby made by """""""indie"""""'" companyad hominem
>>153763200Haha, nta but you're an unthinking retard who is coping about things you hate.
>>153748817>the vibe of some old websiteNewgrounds.Because it's a Newgrounds pilot made by a Newgrounds guy.Shocking!
>>153752736>frenchIt's filipino
>>153759185There are writer-brained people and artist-brained people. The former can construct and write a great story but have little to no sense of aesthetics. You rarely hear about them because they tend to stay in niche /lit/-adjacent spaces and try to make a living there. The latter can design and draw real good but can barely string together a semi-interesting plot. These are the ones you're more likely to hear about because they gravituate to visual mediums. It's also why you might feel like modern writing is shit.
>>153760226>>she's very tomboy but in a non-trans wayThis word has lost all meaning (just like goth). Tomboys don't dress like this. Then again people say Cirno as a tomboy just because she's loud and standoffish, so I guess weeb sensitibilities are all over the place in general.
>>153765175>Tomboys don't dress like this.Says who?
>>153764946>I can't defend the show with its content, it's all about YOUsee? You already gave up on the show, now it's gonna be "you" vs "the haters".
>>153765422Oh, so that's how it is. Well trolled.
>>153759185Writing abd animating are different skills. Sometimes you find people who can do both, but not always
>>153765056It's emulating the style of the "french 2000s cartoon with anime influence", obviously.
>>153767124The style's much more italian than french
>>153765175>Tomboys don't dress like this.She’s dressed like how girls used to dress in the late 90s to mid 00s. Low rise jeans, bare midriff halter tops, bellybutton rings. It was a golden age.
>>153748817as a short it's fine but as a pilot it's kinda dogshit
>>153767153I was going to say that Butterfly is basically tan tomboy Will from W.I.T.C.H. but that, turns out, was an italian work. Could have sworn it was french-adjacent. My bad.But the attractive girls is still pretty standard for shows from Italy in the era.
These are the people who say Fantasia is shit because it doesn’t have a “plot/story” btw
>>153767200> I'm very virgin
>>153765225The hair pin and the blue butterfly top (and the butterfly is probably meant to be like a shiny sequins pattern) are too girly for tomboy wear.
>>153755839I liked this one even if it's just an animatichttps://youtu.be/XIruRdfaZKg?si=oMXn8zdvjxZf3h0v
>>153748817she so cute :3c
>>153763200You're just an idiot who needs to be told things explicitly. KYS. >>153765175Brother, I went to JHS and HS in the 2000s. The standard "one of the boys" outfit for a girl was a tank, low-rise flared jeans, and combat boots. All of the girls wore makeup. Also steel ball (BALLS BALLS BALLS BALLS BALLS OF STEEEEEL were wildly popular.
>>153759809>Just something resembling a story for the short.Not everything needs a structured story. You can have good writing on the premise of "Characters play basketball" and let their interactions and the humor move things forward.
>>153769492See >>153767445.
I dislike how people say this is "so French-Canadian" when what they mean is that it has some traits characteristic of French cartoons along with some traits characteristic of Canadian cartoons. Whereas it has no traits particularly characteristic of *French-Canadian* (ie. Quebecois for the most part) cartoons.
I like it a lot but it's more akin to a newgrounds short I liked a lot, not an actual cartoon pilot, like how it's commonly presented.
>>153769589They mean Franco-Canadian co-productions like Totally Spies you retarded frogposter. Shows that actually had French and Canadian input, not Quebecois cartoons.
>>153759185It's literally a 7 minute short you fucking mong. You faggots don't even know what "good writing" is. You just know your brain starts to tingle when you try and understand an idea that persists for more than 140 characters.
>>153769637It's kinda dumb as almost all french cartoons are franco-canadian coprods ever since the days of inspector gadget
>>153748817>480p
It's cute. Honestly I hope it does just stay as the nonsense writing it is. Fuck lore shit.
Watching it again, it's definitely something that has that "two minisodes in thirty minutes" formula.>The gang is messing around>Things escalate to an absurd level>New invention that saves the dayButterfly being the cute tomboy and Freestyle being the smug inventor works, and they have a good chemistry. I hope this gets picked up and doesn't get gutted or have the fun parts sanded off because this really feels like something found in a time capsule, and I mean that in the best ways. 8/10, needs another episode after the commercial break.
>>153769931fuck off retard.
>>153769571Tomboys wore tanks. Tomboys didn't want to not be cute, they wanted to not be girly. Jesus fucking Christ, don't talk to me unless you're more than 30 years old.
>>153770815Tomboy is a mentality, not a physical appearance.
>>153748817it was a good showcase of what they could do but there was 0 story which is good for people who hate lore shows that need to be serialized instead of just being the thing of the week
