What does /m/ think of Ichirou Ookouchi as a writer?
>>23469452That is one really bad resume.
>>23469452He's a legitimately bad writer that has mostly just written train wrecks. I don't know what went so right with Lupin Part V that it ended up being unapologetically amazing. Also Princess Principal and Overman are fun in spite of the story being kinda messy with rushed endings and his Code Geass seasons are also fun despite how utterly retarded the show is. But otherwise the guy has mostly just done shows that are really bad or completely fall apart in the last stretch.
>>23469477How involved was Monkey Punch in this because that might be why, Lupin Part VI that was done after his passing was utter garbage, but then again one of the worst Lupin show was the Fujiko show written by Mari Okada which was done while he was alive, I swear that woman has never written anything good, but it's possible Monkey Punch wasn't as involved there because it's a spin-off.
>>23469452I liked Code Geass a lot and it has one of the best finales in anything imo. But the finale is easily the best thing of the show, otherwise the show is riddled with problems like the nuclear lesbian that violates tables
>>23469452OP here, forgot to put the Angelic Layer and Azumanga Daioh adaptations which were also done by him
>>23469489Mysogonistic much?>>23469452inb4 Kiki r4p3
>>23469452>first 4solid >every single thing after (that I recognize)embarrassing
>>23469452His recent output made me think that maybe Taniguchi was mostly the one that's responsible for making CG entertaining.
>>23469452Carried hard by other, far more competent people whenever he works with them
>>23470570Late reply but I love everything Yasuko Kobayashi has done aside from Gingaman and Amazons Season 2, my favorite manga Dorohedoro is done by a woman and in general a lot of my favorite manga are done by women like Kemono Jihen, Dungeon Meshi, D. Gray-man and Dekin Mogura. Also Gekiranger which was done by Yokote is one of my favorite Sentai of all time.I just really hate Mari Okada and never understood why she's popular with normalfags or how she keeps getting jobs, like her latest movie sold horribly and a lot of her anime do horribly critically even if there's stuff like Kiznaiver and IBO that are insanely popular, but even her popular stuff sucks imo. Only anime of hers I kind of liked was Wixoss but even then not by much. Really I dare you to watch the Fujiko anime and judge it for yourself rather than defending it blindly.
>>23472247who carried for planetes? that turned out amazing
>Guilty Crown Writer also did Geassno wonder GC went from hardcore action to stupid school life antics at the drop of a hat
I guess most of his shows are at least entertaining. He needs a good director, or a tard wrangler, to keep him from fucking the pacing up though.
The thing about Okouchi is that as far as people who can write by the seat of their pants go, he's really good at bullshitting the plot forward in ways that will keep you on your toes, which is a very useful skill to have if you can't guarantee a plan for your story well in advance.
>>23469452He wrote the 08th MS Team novelization. Yes, THAT one.I'll let you draw your conclusions.
>>23469452Seems like a real mixed bag
>>23473000It was pretty normal for a war story?
>>23472398Taniguchi
>>23470774Taniguchi was the one responsible for the good parts of Geass.
>>23473000you mean he wrote the actual gritty story that 08th MSfags pretend the anime to be.
>>23469500That ending is so overated
