>manages to do the time travel story better than Primer and Back to the Future
Why is Japan better specifically at making time travel kinos compared to Hollywood?
>>
>anigay
Disregarded.
>>
>>215147166
Hollywood has been creatively bankrupt for decades.
>>
>>215147166
The best time travel story is unironically still Donnie Darko
>>
i watched this anime because of all the hype on the internet.
yeah it's juuvenile garbage. from the mentally challenged girl wearing that stupid hat acting like a perpetual 5 year old to a literal tranny to the supposed main red-headed girl wearing her cardigan like a fucking retard.
second hand embarrassment galore.

>>215147166
>>215147303
Best time travel movie is still 12 Monkeys

>>215147166
The Japs are claiming Tom Cruise again?

>>215147328
I've never even heard of it so that means it's slop

They sucked up all the untapped kino radiation from China after they banned time travel stories
>>
>>215147358
Japs have always loved Tom Cruise. Not sure what numbers Top Gun and Mision Impossible do there but I heard it was a lot.
>>
>>215147473
probably cause he's short and dark haired

Kurisu is one of the best female leads in anything so shut your whore mouth.
>>
>>215147310
Yeah you need to be slightly okay with different standards to appreciate S;G, if you're anything of a cultural hikikomori then you'll hounce right off.
>>215147328
Watch it, it's not great but it's not bad either
>>215147245
Tenet was super creative. It just wasn't a good movie.

They should've kept the name as All You Need is Kill.

I'm retarded >>215147865, I thought you said dark skinned.

>>215147166
S;G has some of the most annoying characters of all time. Edge of Tomorrow isn't the worst thing but it's carried by Tom Cruise.
These two don't measure up to shit.
>>
>>215147166
>a heckin anime
Nooo give me Marty Mcfly
>>
>>215147166
Tbh S;G is an outlier even among anime. It's a genuinely brilliant sci-fi story that just happens to have anime flavor. It probably has the best use of time travel as a plot device in any media.
>>
>>215148423
You haven't even watched it fag.

I dont actually think it does. For some reason no one mentions the "time travel" device is a fucking microwave and it all hinges on sending text messages to the future. the plots of some episodes are fights over who has a phone so they can send texts. its really fucking stupid. One of the main girls has down syndrome with the mentality of a child and she just goes around shouting DOO-DA-DOO and youre supposed to be taken aback at her innocense and cuteness when shes barely even a real character. Its actually kind of fucking stupid if you think about it longer than ten seconds but for some reason no one ever brings this stuff up when mentioning steins gate. Edge of Tomorrow has flaws but it has believable characters and interactions which is more than you can say for steins gate, which is like 60% a cliche anime sitcom.

>>215148513
Anime website btw

>>215147310
bro you dont get it shes actually cute and innocent youre supposed to be charmed at her being mentally retarded hurr durrr you are too stupid to appreciate the nuances of japanese culture durrr why dont you like the literally mentally retarded girl DOO-DA-DOOOOOO
>>
>>215148595
television and film is distinct from the anime board, if they were meant to be interchangeable there would not be distinct boards get fucked.
>>
>>215147310
It's based on the akihabara aesthetic, you need to be extremely low IQ to appreciate it. The themes are non-existent in this. The dialogue is astounding (in its stupidity, as all teenagers are). Overall I enjoyed it when I was 16 but now that I'm 10 years older I don't think I'd enjoy it anymore.
>>
>>215148581
>"time travel" device is a fucking microwave
It's not. It's a malfunctioning microwave + an ancient crt screen.
Given that they're a bunch of teenagers, their usage of it is pretty restrained.
>>
>>215148693
I was being reductionist, I dont think the full explanation makes it any better. Notice how all western time travel stories are about adults too, because its assumed the situation would be beyond the means of teens to deal with. But in japan its assumed it has to be about teenagers so they can fill it with sitcom bullshit.

Anon.. Have you ever been checked? >>215148423
>>
>>215148739
if there was one unanimous board for all television without a distinct anime board you may be onto something. Alas, that is not the situation we find ourselves in.

>>215148771
Marty has Doc who is an adult its not just about teenage stuff. The third act is about helping Doc do a science thing Marty has no understanding of. This does not happen in Steins Gate.
>>
>>215148795
A fair few episodes are devoted to Daru fixing the time machine that his older self built.
>>
>>215147245
True but Japanime isn't any better.
>>
>>215147166
Steins;Gate was way too pseudointellectual for what was essentially a story about a weebshit nerd doing retarded things with a time machine and then needing to fix his dumb mistakes.
>>
>>215147166
>time travel story better
which part? the part with the vegetables deciding the sex of a character?
>>
>>215147310
Every anime is juvenile. No serious anime exists.
>>
>>215150136
OP's anime is already serious if you aren't someone like this faggot >>215150073 and have some basic ability for suspension of disbelief.

>>215147166
BttF is a classic you ignorant animetard.
>>
>>215147166
You're comparing an anime/video game and a manga to Hollywood movies with less time on their hands. Not to mention, Edge of Tomorrow was a Hollywood adaptation of manga....so I'm not sure why you're praising Japan on that one.
>Primer and Back to the Future
Primer is an incredibly dry closed loop time travel story. Back to the Future is an adventure/comedy is arguably one of the best time travel stories ever made.

>Why is Japan better specifically at making time travel kinos compared to Hollywood?
You should play Quantum Break, because it's the best story Remedy ever made and a damn good time travel story. https://youtu.be/pH_E-9S7VMI?si=1HUsVb39MzIsz7V_&t=10

There's also Terminator 1/2, X-men: Days of Future Past, Frequency, Source Code, Deja Vu, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, 12 Monkeys, Groundhog Day. I'd say you'd have a pretty hard fight in arguing that Japan time travel stories are better than western ones.
>>
>>215147358
I'm sure Scientology has close ties to the Unification Church.
>>
>>215150563
I've watched at least half of those movies and SG is way better than shit like Source Code and Groundhog Day.

What the fuck

You and anyone else watching anime is gay
>>
>>215152173
People that praise steins gate for its story are the same braindeads that think demon slayer and my hero academia are peak fiction. None of it is good, but some of them think their shows are super special even when they're not.

That's Korean
