Why are there no games with retro anime aesthetics?
Dark cloud 1 is kinda in that vein, but it’s an early ps2 game so it doesn’t translate well. But comparing it to kingdom hearts you can tell it’s leaning towards the early anime aesthetics as opposed to the newer stuff that was starting to appear
>>721522110Just play PC-98 games?
>>721522110Mine has it but you haven't funded it yet
>>721522110There are
>>721522110deedlit sex
>>721522110Because kids these days have shit taste
>>721522329If thats the case, Radiata Stories, Rogue Galaxy, and Tales of Symphonia fit the bill as well
>>721522110it's lost technologyalso langrisser mobile
>>721522623Crazy how much better animation used to be
>>721522110At that point, why not just watch some old anime?
>>721522110Its thank to CGI becoming more normal in animation in the 00s that the old style from 80s and 90s stopped being used around the time the Light Novel Adaptation Apocalypse started.
>>721522609Rogue galaxy is amazing and underrated
Growlanser GenerationsTrails in the Sky 1 / 2 / 3
>>721522738New anime shit will just have a million digitally simulated particle effects and wave the camera around so that there's no sense of spacing or flow...and zoomer will eat it up.
>>721522110400 years old brat
Because it's really fucking expensive. Why don't all 2d games have high quality hand drawn animation like Cuphead? It takes a lot of time and effort to make.
>>721522738The way the axe rips through the curtain and slams into the wooden board looks so god damn satisfying.
>>721522738There were no shortcuts or technological trickery, you had to be good at it - and if you're good, you might as well give it all you've got.
Mullet mad jack
>>721523135But it clearly worked
>>721522110Aesthetics aren't difficult to replicate. Thing is, weebs aren't particularly picky. As long as you have shovel faces, anything goes.

>>721522110Parn should be burned at the stake for this..
It's damning to the entire Japanese animation industry that the best elf they ever made is 27 years old
>>721522110For me it's the 90s/00s uguu era.
>>721522110There are and they are made by brownoids

>>721524881>retro
>>721524984Play it. It’s very 80’s toriyama
>>721522110Maybe Japanese people just aren't nostalgic for the late 80s, early 90s?
>>721522110Not really retro, but Forgotton Anne looks like a mix of anime and 90s Dinseyhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/542050/Forgotton_Anne/

>>721524528I got you bro
>>721522110There are. Just play retro anime games.
>>721522110It’s a lost art. Any Westerner trying it will immediately look inauthentic.
>>721522306love the heavy ink shading here
>>721522110The Ni No Kuni games ought to count since the Ghibli art style hasn't really changed much since the 80s. Also a good palate cleanser for all the piss filter Ghibli we were subjected to when normies found out about AI image generation
this came out in 2023
>>721529297isnt this an old game and the 2023 is just the remaster?
I always liked how older anime looked more lgbtq friendly!
>>721529368ssh
>>721529289The first game was so damn good. Didn't care for the look of the cast in the second game, so I never played it.
The Trials of Mana remake has a half-retro, half-modern look.
>>721522110came out a few months ago!
Yugioh is technically a retro anime
>>721529589Yu-Gi-Oh! IS retro.
>>721522110This anime was openly maligned for being what would be described as "goyslop" today by industry veterans when it was released. It's funny how the sword and sorcery aesthetic always lends itself to complete and total dogshit. There is not a single good game that looks like this and there never will be.
>>721522623That axe was pretty legit for what amounts to just the head itself. Cracking swords and flying across the room like a lead brick.
>>721529581SOVL
>>721522675One of the few good gacha wish they made a new one like it
>>721524862>MnF Starmission with mechsNot bad
>>721529013simply following hollywood trends
>>721529841it's good stuff
>>721522738
>>721522738But that an example of really bad and cheap animation
Does Fist of the North Star Kens Rage count? I know its not 2d but they kept the same retro character designs.

>old good, new bad generalyup, sounds like /v/
>>721522110It’s a cultural thing. Japanese people don’t yearn for the retro look like westerners do. The new is the hot shit. And the manga magazines, which form the base of their cultural pyramid in many way actively polices new mangaka to use contemporary styles. Closest you get is stuff like the Ranma 1/2 remake which is still distinctly modern looking regardless.
>>721530423It's literally considered low quality and is a bunch of really cheap cutaways. There's like 3 frames of barely passable animation in that whole webm. You people always have the most abhorrently dogshit taste imaginable and have no idea what you're talking about. Go back to ruining /a/, you have an entire dying board no one wants to use any more.
>>721524974Looks nothing like Avatar.
>>721530545Toxotransmosis moment.
>>721522738Don't worry with ai you can make this but 10x faster and better
>>721530728You posted better animation, ie more frames and detail. The webm you're calling shit had better direction: it's much more compelling than 53 seconds of a guy on a motorbike.Now, combine the two.
>>721524214Meanwhile gacha games make billions and you have people making shit load of money doing ai generated fanart
We must go back, back to the past
>>721527546what a retarded thing to say
>>721522110>policenauts>yu-no>pc-98
>>721530998>The webm you're calling shit had better directionNo it doesn't and I'm not interested in having a discussion with you. You have an entire ruined and boring board all to yourself where you can throw the yarn ball around in the dunning krueger circle jerk and embarass yourself with the 3 people left there. Go back.

>>721524707>brown dark elf>goodFuck off. They should be black or purple
I can't stand these types of people, whenever I want to discuss actual old games some idiot just dumps pictures or webms of pixelated titties and goes "SOVL" over and over because hes never actually played the games so I just abandon the thread. It's not worth giving these people a reason to be here.
>>721531397Gay
>>721530535this anime deserved better
>>721524707Yes, especially since the nips cant make an elf to save their lives. I need isekai with a Brown elf girl, preferably a bossy type. Subservient wimps begone.
Stories from Sol: The Gun-Dog is a recent release that has those 80s aesthetics
>>721531459>whenever I want to discuss actual old garbage no one cares about some idiot posts titshave you tried reddit?
>>721522738are you sure you dont think this because the average show from back then has been forgotten and the only ones people remember are the ones with high production value
>>721529297What the fuck was up with Reana's weird ass face?
>>721531459>Thread is literally "Games with retro anime aesthetics">NOOOOOOOO I MEANT OLD GAMESDumbass. Make your title clearer next time.
>>721530125The finale was kino. I read that most of the cast had a bad end after the war. I haven't seen Macross 7 yet, so that might change.
>>721522110There are hundreds. They're old, try playing them.
>>721532026>confirming that you don't actually like or play old gamesThanks!
>>721524707For me it was Arshes Nei from Bastard. >you will never adopt a brown loli elf and raise he to be your GFThat being said I was initially happy with the Bastard netflix anime, but it just wasnt as impactful and gritty as the OVA.
>>721532203why would i? they're worse in every way
>>721522110it requires work
STARVEIL PROTOCOL A.A.A.
>>721532149I wouldn't call any of their fates bad ends. At most a few of the relationships meet the hard reality of jobs and real life outside of war. But it's been awhile. And to be fair, the movie had peek animation, I don't remember any of the older macross TV shows having great animation.
>>721522110I'm looking forward to pic
Even western ideas of what anime was were better 25 years ago.
>>721530596Yeah, I don't see much "retro" culture in Japanese media the way you see it in the west.Also probably helps that most mangaka are directed towards a younger audience anyways, so why make something about "retro" stuff with that old mindset?The money's in the now now.
>>721532798I miss the weeabo phase. There was an actual honest and sincere attempt to mimic the style and sure there was a lot of hit or miss, but i perfered that pro anime timeline than the tranny one
>>721522110record of lodoss war, the one you posted the ova of, is a good one actually
>>721522609Radiata Stories is my favorite jrpg. I wish modern waifubaiting jrpgslop would at least try to have just a fraction of the personality that game had.
>>721522110None of the active creatives know how to do that and the old guys still around that do know how are old and rather rely on 3d models/2d skins.
>>721524130This looked pretty cool until>tags: lgbtq+
>>721523104One Piece's current fights since Wano are horrendous. The main fights always have the characters flying around and launching attacks from across an island now like fucking DBZ.

>>721534208>Since WanoAnon, Law literally cut an island in half two arcs prior.
>>721522623The main character had his dick out so much in this movie
>>721522110Because modern entertainment/society wants to move away from everything beautiful.
>>721534084its yuri so its fine
>>721524881I've seen this shit and got disguested by the mc, is this thing male or female?
>>721534471I'm mostly talking about close range fighters like Zoro and Sanji who do a lot of long range shit they shouldn't be doing. I know Zoro has projectile attacks but now that feels like his entire moveset.

>>721534930dude...
>>721530545retard
>>721522110Cotton 2 is very retro!
>>721529783Abyssmal dogshit opinion, tons of amazing sword and sorcery stories. Like Conan and Eternal Champion
>>721530545>catposter is retardedThank god, I'm still in the same timeline
We need a City Hunter & Outlaw Star game
>>721523135Its not expensive, in fact its probably cheaper to do 2D animation than 3D because you dont need much except paper vs 3D where you need expensive computers. If you're good then you can make a little cartoon drawing in 2 seconds and just have to do that a thousand times to get an animation. Why no one does it is because its more time consuming than 3D overall since in 3D frames are generated for you, you dont need to draw them and there are very few people on the earth who have enough skill to be capable of doing 2D animation as getting to the point you're good enough to be an animator takes years and years of practice. Not even Disney animators know 2D anymore.
>>721535001Sorry for not knowing everything!
>>721535512DUDE!

>>721535859kinda funny how studio ghibli is so widely praised when that artstyle was adopted so easily by AI since it was the easiest to reproduce
>>721522329the ps2 is retro at this point based I loved dark cloud when I was younger, I wish they would do a new one with modern systems they could go a lot more in depth with the town building aspect

>>721534084Honestly, that's pretty complicated. The game itself is yuri as fuck but it's a prequel, and if you know about how that game goes down then you know how LGTS ends and it kinds Old Yeller's the yuri angle.
>>721536532Well yeah but that one is older, I referred to SA and Totoro as the last ones with a lasting fanfare, the rest of his movies from that point on just always came and went.

>>721533142Not op but I picked this up because I'm a big fan of lodoss (and especially rune soldier) it wasn't bad but its kind of just a generic metroidvania, it doesn't really capture the feel of lodoss or that era of anime all that well, kind of just an overall meh experience >>721538562.Hack also captures the early mmo culture very well, I think pointless forum posts that go nowhere will be lost on most zoomies though, it really is a bygone era
>>721539667Does it have isuues emulating on rpcsx3?
>>721534208There's way too much shit going on at times and the animation became too zany. Luffy vs. Kizaru is a good example of what I mean. That cloud section you can barely tell what the fuck is happening. But when they tone it down a little the animation is great.
>>721539862I haven't emulated PS3 games yet. Guess I'll give it a try.

>>721523917I don't even really think its that there's a lot of talented animators out there these days who's quality is better than that clip, what most people are actually complaining about when they talk about "animation" is the aesthetics, the difference is largely that 100% digital animation is often very flat looking, there's very minimal color variation and the line work is 100% clean which loses that "cozy" cobbled together feel of older animation where things were constantly moving because of inconsistent line work and colors varied because artists were actually scribbling them in

>>721540370>the difference is largely that 100% digital animation is often very flat lookingAnon digital animation has been a standard since early-mid 00s, the problem is like you said artistic aesthetics and imo thw annoying ass brightness filters.
I'd kill for more games and anime with this kind of style. Stuff like Windwaker and Popolocrois are my shit.>>721529289Ni No Kuni? More like Ni No KINO.
>>721532201Chronicles of Mystara is so fucking kino, just wish the thief wasn't so bad
>>721540370That's probably doable digitally (there was that dogshit retro-stylized anime called Hisone to Masotan, for instance), but it seems like people adjusted just fine to the clean flat look.
>>721532051This is true to some extent, but the highest highs from back then completely blow anything newer out of the water. Just like how old school Disney blows anything currently in the west out of the water.
>>721541205What's bad? Doesn't she get sneak attack? I recall I'd buff my friends thief when we were in the arcade and he'd have her chunk off a truckload with a back-attack.

>>721536145IMO You should play both, Boomerang is more like a remix of 2, it improves on 2's gameplay in some aspects but overall it's a different cup of tea.2 is more like a euroshmup as it gives you a health bar while Boomerang is like Sonic Mania's encore mode, with lives being their own alternate shooting style, Boomerang also lets you block bullets with your fists which is cool.

That anime is so boring.
Animation has objectively improved and anyone who thinks otherwise does not like or watch anime. All these people who fetishize old things are normalfags who are "catching up" that didn't watch things I've already seen 20 years ago. I remember grumpyjiisan excitedly watching new seasonals on his deathbed at age 89, you don't get that type of thing any more with these fake and boring fans. These are people with no real interests who sit around and do nothing all day. When lodoss released tomino and anno called it straight up garbage.
>>721522738>>721530230>>721530423>>721530728is /a/ migrating over here? Crazy how dogshit your rose tinted opinions are. Bad animes now look way much better now than 20+ years ago. No I don't care about you posting some cherry picked animations. Most old anime was 19min of talking so animators could catch a break.Melt and fucked up proportions were extremely common.pretentious niggers like you is why I never go to /a/.
that 2D sidescroller mech game with the brown tomboy that's stuck in dev but they keep releasing sexy art of said tomboy from time to timethat one
>>721545434Show me one scene in that high budget ova that is detailed as this seasonal anime, go ahead and pull out the production materials so idiots can really understand
>>721543270Is this real? People enjoy this? The average anime fan of today must be destroyed.
>>721530728you are a nodraw retard, the drapery in the webm you called shit is much harder to animate convincingly than that motorbike scene
>>721546335/a/ has mods openly stating they hate anime while flooding the board with crappy generals on shonen shit and toonami anime for teens. Now no one posts there so they're spilling into this place.
>>721546152And to make your point you posted Onimai of all things which is just saturated pink and animation no better than a standard 2014 SoL?
>>721545532city builders also don't have the rpg aspect attached, finding the houses and buildings in the dungeon is a big part of what made dark cloud fun
>>721543270Which music video is this?
>>721546335even a 19 minute talking scene then was better because the writing was for 110iq autistic nips rather than the brown one piece third worlders that consoom anime nowjust compare an average anime like planetes to an average anime about being a man who wake up in the body of a woman (feeding AGP fantasies) nowall we have had is downgrades to the point its unwatchable dogshit
Oh boy the webgen warriors got off of school early today
>>721546776*average anime from 20 years ago vs now

>Tranime
>>721522738It's because animators actually want to animate. Eizouken put it pretty well with its example of the animator girl who wanted to faithfully replicate her grandma tossing her tea into the sink. I'm always reminded of the Ranma 1/2 anime, there's this one shot where Ranma's standing up and we're watching him from an oblique upwards-facing angle. It's literally like four frames of animation but it's some of the smoothest shit I've ever seen.The top animator of today, the cube guy, he used to be a real animator in the 90s. Now he does generic overcomposited shaky cam impact frame sakuga moments (and he was the first one to do it, really), but that didnt used to be his style. And it's funny because you know that means he's only doing it in response to consumer demands, studios are going DUDE CAN YOU MAKE THIS FOR OUR SHOW??
>>721546578Onimai was a passion project which featured about 90% of the currently talented animators in Japan, they all dropped what they were doing to work on it. You can cope however you want there but this is one of the best animated seasonals ever made. A lot of these animators also wound up working on projects like Frieren. When you look at shit anime, like One Piece and Dragon Ball, well they still have the same animators they did in the 00s, using the same exact techniques. The nostalgia is just gone.
>>7215221101993 was peak, this combo is so good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yw74taLtGRwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4iH5zTkQjYyou can see the same artists doing both and the music too. your answer is its a lost art and it would cost a lot.
>>721546845>fantastic character design and detailed stillsBut it doesn't have either of those things. It's extremely generic and uninspired pulp, and the character designer made much better things like Escaflowne when he was under a better director and had more freedom. There is absolutely nothing good about generic sword and sorcery fluffy hair shit.
>>721531938god I wish this was a real game, I got so fucking hyped by the art style and the first few trailers
>>721546928Your bias is very clear, this doesn't look any better than for example Dragon Maid.
>>721547104Firstly, all those animators died in a fire. Secondly, yes it does. That's why CITY looks like total ass by comparison, all the SHAFT animators left the studio and spread out into the industry, that's why we're getting all this good over the top animation and original art styles like in onimai. This is like old Disney levels of detail. For a SEASONAL.
>>721546493nta but if thats the case why wont they swap those mods with people who actually like it, what is the problem? this site is killing itself due factors like this ( not that many really care)
>>721536000>adopted so easily by AIexcept 99% of the ghibli ai images you see look nothing like actual studio ghibli art, its just something being pushed by jeets and other jeets see a passing resemblance and praise it
>OVA has good art but the animation was limited>The berserker fight suddenly shows silky smooth frames for some reason.
>>721546776>Planaetes>averagec'mon now. I agree that the autistic passion projects have become a rarity.Ecchi is pretty much dead. Everything is streamlined now and washed down for mass audience, but the average animation quality and action density has gone up tremendously.
>>721522110Fire Emblem had basically the same aesthetic as Lodoss War up until the most recent entries drifted.
>>721547585>nta but if thats the case why wont they swap those mods with people who actually like itMods are more concerned with staying in power and massaging their broken egos than having a community. No one abusing their power is going to willingly step down, and they likely have convinced themselves what they're doing is right. It won't change until the website is so bad Hiro sells it.
>>721546878Trying too hard
>>721547378>forced animation
>>721547835>It's well animated so it's bad, why doesn't everything look like shit like I'm used to

>>721524020>>721542310So sad the game is so short, because holy fuck this game isn't talked about enough, such a great timeReally hoping to see more of it, even clones, I don't care
>>721547835its very hard to tell what the characters gestures are even trying to say, even though a lot of work was put into animating it. miyazaki was right, animators are otaku that never watch real people>>721547914
>>721548073>its very hard to tell what the characters gestures are even trying to sayYou might have actual autism, the bad CWC kind
>>721547378>That's why CITY looks like total ass by comparisonAgree>all the SHAFT animators left the studio and spread out into the industry, that's why we're getting all this good over the top animation and original art styles like in onimaiAgree to disagree, it's decent but nothing crazy. What else did they do? Animating well a comedy SoL in framed detail doesn't hold same merit as an SoL that includes detailed action scenes too(Dragon Maid).>Disney levels of detailAre we talking rotoscope era disney? 90s Golden age? I don't see the correlation, you appear to like slightly better than above average frames per second and find it somehow impressive.
>>721547378just because things are constantly moving doesn't mean the animation is goodit's an improvement over only animating mouths, but isn't interesting
>>721548195just the opposite, it’s autistic AGPs who relate to and see themselves in webms like that. i am a national socialist
>>721547819
>>721547835>>721548073the gestures are pretty distinct and I don't need subtitles to understand her feelings through them, thoughnow I do agree that it feels a bit forced, but that's simply due to everything happening so fast, most people use gestures in a slower manner but that's because they speak slower too, in anime (and most other media), dialog goes way too fast because the people don't even need to think about what they're saying, there's no break, no breather, everything just happens as the script dictates and so trying to fit the animation to the script (rather than the other way around) leads to this feeling of 'forced animation'which isn't the animator's fault, this is purely a producer's issue (or director in some cases)
>>721542097I mean this happened in the 80s and 90s too. Akira movie isn't the full story. Video Girl AI isn't a full adaptation. If you want the full story buy the manga.
>>721545434Its over.
>>721548347>i am a national socialistDefinite autism. It doesn't take a super genius to see Ruri is the excitable and impatient girl in an otherwise pretty muted anime about geology.https://youtu.be/XPkolCuO6Y0And yeah young girls do act like that.

>>721522110I'm assuming it's a lost art. If you had a job then you were lets pretend, 18. Now 30 years on, you're 48. Now you're not dead, but you could be dead, injured or doing other things. Maybe you now make slop with CGI and have lost the ability to make that stuff becuase it's been so long.Evnetually there will be an entire generration of artists who only ever animate with digital art, then a generation who uses CGI, then the AI generation will be the dominant one. TLDR; People forget skills they don't use, or don't develop them anymore to begin with. Thus we won't see older talents come back. If you want to see this in other media, look at writing. You had Twilight, this gave you 50 shades, now you have all kinds of smut being pushed that was inspired by this. The bar can always be lower. Or look at anime with isekai,

>>721545215How come absolutely no one animates like this anymore? Is there no demand for cell animation? I'm sure you'd find plenty of people who prefer this over what's made today with digital.

In many ways, they're akin to the Guilty Gear fanbase. They gate kept so hard that the community collapsed into itself like a neutron star, so even if you've been watching anime since the mother fucking 80s, you'll be shouted out of /a/ faster than a darkie who took one too many pictures of a Geisha.
>>721549216reminds me of that old joke about finnish people.in finland, a man visits his neighbour who is a farmer. the farmer greets him with a nod.they sit down and drink cups of tea without speaking. after several hours, the farmer finally breaks the silence by asking “so, what brings you here?”“my house is on fire” the man replies

People see an anime girl doing something and having fun, then they want to go do that thing. You are resisting change because you are a husk of a person that cannot be fixed.
>>721546907Hell, it's not necessarily about the animation, for me. Take City Hunter, for example. The hand-to-hand to fight scenes were just constant still shots that were recycled from Season 1. But the character design, art style, shading, direction, was supreme.

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust is a must-watch for the quality of animation alone
>>721522110All anime now looks the same. in the late 90s/early 2000's digital there was a battle of ways of doing art and the style of art was all over the place. digital obliviously won besides autistic guys like miyazaki and the style of that way of making art all took over and evolved. hand drawn shit has a more of a "trademark" then digital. you actually know whos making what by the style of the ep.

>>721549909I think a lot of the character design and shading has been simplified because that's what the animators can draw. There used to be some really good character designers, though. I feel like we still have them, they just don't get involved in anime. There's been more of a push to be "faithful to the manga" (especially as more and more things are just manga adaptations) and usually, in true pennt-pinching fashion this involves not hiring a character designer at all and just expecting the key animators to copy the manga panels.
>>721550097all i know about made in abyss is its some fur pedo shit based on that “smells good” imageit does make sense something like that could not have existed in the past when people were less degeneratethen again we had boku no pico. anime watchers today would probably love that and think its “kino”

Like Herzog tier cinematography, but also the art direction lends to it simultaneously feeling like a manga. It's quite odd, it's like "watching" a manga. And the source material itself comes from a top notch mangaka, one of the most famous and highly rewarded of modern times.

Why are there so many female protagonists now?Why are there so few series where true friendship/rivalry between men are valued and portrayed?Where are the male authors?What happened to the blood pumping male protagonists who, you know, also had a brain?Why's it all gay now?Sometimes I open up the anime board on 2ch, and all the "guys" there are calling themselves "ladies" now, are talking about TS (transsexual) fetishes, and have recently started calling anything erotic "noise". I don't even know where the last one came from. No, really, they're addressing one another as ladies. It was generally simply 'you guys'...Shit, man, even the powerlevel fags and plot autists are all gone. Where did all the men go? Where's the shelter from the feminized world?Ah, I mean, it's ok. It's probably just me being old. Play vidya more than ever too, and I guess my sister + her other friends, all the other girls, like anime a lot more these days, when in the past they'd sum it up as 'weird', then leave it at that.
>>721553002This is the game retro retards deserve
>>721524710based
>>721552935Kill yourself troon, don't ever post on my fucking board again and pretend like you know anything.
>>721552867Ok wtf is eggshit? Like because it's yuri it's eggs humping? Explain.
>>721553027Zoomers think "good animation" is the MC flopping around like a Source Engine ragdoll with random hitstop pauses while the camera swings around like it's being operated by a spastic monkey
>>721543270this cannot be fucking real
>>721553240>Why are there so many female protagonists now?Because you don't read Kingdom or Zatch Bell 2???????? What a strange post.
>>721553240Nice pasta. Where'd you get it from?
>>721553317It's how trannies reproduce despite their mangled genitals, they gaslight kids into thinking they're an 'egg' which must 'hatch' into a tranny.
>>721553337Idk man, this shit is pretty fire.
>>721552786>half of them about waifus (explicitly ignored my instructions so you are going straight into my torture dungeon)>others are all featuring super young looking boyssad how messed up you zoomies are.. guess us millenial chads are just built different. when i google an anime i want to see promo art that looks like cyber city odeo 808, not whatever that stuff is>but the plots!no thank you, ill go work on my IRL hobbies
>>721553310Ttgl is the most reddit shit ever and it just nonstop references to better anime. It's the supreme newfaggot anime.
>>>/a/282397106>>>/a/282397106
>>721522110Same reason there are so few games with PC98 aesthetics, it requires more skill and effort and therefore gets more expensive as well.This is also why it is so hard to find overlap with truely passionate indie devs -- those are already in short supply, and from that lot you need to get someone who also has the skills to pull it off and it gets really unlikely to pop up.
>>721552518>POV: me at literally any encounter in a D&D based game (I roll at least 3 critical fails every single combat encounter start). Not featured: me eating 2 critical hits in a row
>>721543270I wonder if zoomies would be immune to electric soldier porygon now
>>721553489Ok, thats fucking disgusting but what does that have anything to do with two hot chicks kissing?
>>721543528They cut out a few frames lol
>>721553527Told you it was just nu/a/ cancer. It's the shit janny from there just trying to shit up other boards.
>>721553240unironically, i prefer female protags cos i wanna be a woman. of course just fiction. i'm allowed to be a woman in my fantasies, yeah.
>>721552787oddtaxi and kinnikuman looks interesting, thanks
>>721553514>t. started watching anime recently and acts like a contrarianRefer to here please. >>721553310
>>721553709Every single scene you like in ttgl is just a worse copy of a better anime.
>>721553513>bunch of meaningless word garble and retardation Lil bro really thought he said something meaningful. You should go work on getting some bitches.
>>721553638its the beginning phase of AGP. the audience watching this shit isnt gay women - its men who see themselves in the kissing female characters. eventually they progress to full blown trannyism and attack normal people and try to shoot up praying kids
>>721553665This one is kinda ok except for the white frames.
>>721553768So true king, just like how cutting off your penis makes you a real woman.
>>721553864Wow. How do you know so much?Are you a doctor or something?
>>721551446Honey and Clover was not directed by Shinbo, poseur.
>>721541638Judo Boy
retro anime had such good bare titty animation toomodern anime just straight up doesn't show titty as much anymore its sad
>>721553791total niggerbabble response from you zoomer. google akudama drive and tell me it looks like something that meets the criteria i laid out. the other anon tried harder thoughbeit
>>721553491OK, what's the last decent one piece season? I liked the wedding cako one. 22?
>>721552678>retro anime thread>it's just Lodoss, movies, or OVA animations
>>721553949no, doctors dont actually know shit except how to poison you with vaccines anyway. i wouldn’t listen to them if i were you unless you break your arm and need them to set a cast
>>721553491the first scene with gear 5 is such dog shit but then it like instantly improved. the first scene is so unreadable.
>>721522110Nobody uses cels for animation anymore, it's literally a lost art, we lost the technologyEven Cuphead was colored digitally
>>721553864>its the beginning phase of AGPHoly shit zoomers are hopeless, watching bbc videos on prohub causes more agp than hot lesbians going at it.>proofLoock how many lesbian to man cuck porn is out there. None.
>>721554138>it gets worse
>>721553491I'm in my 30s and when my friend got excited and showed me that fight, i couldn't help but think that it looked like shit. He smiled and said "It takes a lot of inspiration from old looney toons animation"I thought, yeah sure, but it looks like flashy erratic shit.Pic unrelated, just animation that bankrupt a studio.
>>721553491This looks like fucking slop and normie bait. Get better taste.
>>721554093>retro book thread>it’s just crime and punishment, moby dick and the count of monte cristonew books is so much better am i right fellow teens!!
>>721554176Cel animation just adds impurities, it's not a style.
>>721530976maybe in 5 years hopefully
>>721522329
>>721554186they see themselves as lesbian women - FTM that still like women. this is central to the AGP phenomenon
>>721554313This movie was a masterpiece though
>>721554214Fucking beautiful. Shame it bankrupted them.
the problem with old style anime is that nobody will go learn cel animation to make a game or anime. You also need equipment which isn't that cheap.Faking old style is pretty obvious, but it's the very definition of forced soul. Because aside from the style, the game is going to be very modern.
>>721554323To be fair, dostoevsky is for literal retards .

>>721554323The count of monte cristo anime is sick. There's a bit of ugly cgi in it, but the artstyle is still peak. It's 20 years old now so it counts as retro.
>>721554351True, and those imperfections can easily be added back to digital, but nobody does it because it's extra effort for little reward
for me it's To Love Ru
>>721553491This looks as bad as that infamous pain fight lmao
>>721553865It used to be OK, now it's awful
>>721554351imperfection is what is soul and art.
>>721554176There was something special about cel shading.
>>721554176Pokemon was one of the last holdouts for cell animation
>>721552916nah
>>721554093Let's not forget Angel Cop
>>721522623>Art style looks 70sish>That level of detail in animationWhat is this?
>>721554469retard detected. name your top 5 fiction books so i can laugh
>>721551931No, I never said they lie. It's naturally to be aware of what's going on around you, while only having limited knowledge of the past. It's effectively selection bias>>721552364Kusuriya no HitorigotoSousou no FrierenOre dake Level Up na KenJujutsu KaisenOdd Taxi
new thread>>>/a/282397106
>>721554647The Johto arc ended like a dozen episodes after this btw, I'll never understand why they didn't just wait until Hoenn to make the switch
>>721554542Fake cel animation ain't perfect, but it still looks nice when done right. I remember the modern Bakabon anime did it's whole first episode in the style of the 90s anime and it looked pretty damn spot on.
>>721553310Gurren Lagann is such a fkn midwit pick lmao. Its dec, but its not the crown jewel of the medium.
>>721554542>easilyit's just the color grading that comes close, the animation style and scene composition is very modern
>>721554093Here you go, not from a movie or OVA
>>721554396>they see themselves as lesbian womenI watch yuri every other blue moon because I like soft female creatures touching each other in an absurdist romantic story context, not as a self insert. If I had to self insert it would be to imagine a threesome, which has been exacerbated by the fact that I once bathed with two dykes and almost had a threesome at 19. This whole shit of demonizing yuri feels like a psyop against straight men, proof being that fucking emprerors, sultans, conquerors and warlords in ancient times had entire harems of bitches fucking each other.
People talk about anime from the 80s or 90s or 2010s and 2020s sucking but no one talks about how much kino anime there were from the early 2000s. ESPECIALLY in the mecha genre, like Gun x Sword for example. There's just something about early 2000s mecha anime that hits different.
>>721554794
>>721554542Nobody does it because it looks bad.https://youtu.be/_IPSRvhHwrYThis entire ED was made by painting glass panels. https://youtu.be/aTBLelM_SyIThis entire movie was made digitally and looks leagues better than anything ever done with cels.You're just wrong and profoundly misunderstand animation. It's posts like these that make /a/ a shitty and unusable board now. The sooner the staff of that place is gone the better.
People complain about the quality of animation, and they're right but there's been a fall off in everything else as well. I mean, has anyone watched the Rebuild?Jesus fucking christ
>>721554612haki ruined everythingit works exactly like dbz power levels..
>>721554794Thank you
>>721554093>want to watch this>have to spend like half a year to watch everything
>>721554880Man, this got Miyazaki written all over it.
>>721554858Don't samefag. It's pathetic.
>>721555063Not ending the fucking manga ruined everything. If any shounen manga goes on for long enough it inevitably turns into DBZ
>>721555118The main series is only 55 hours long
>>721554313>shitfrog cancer
>>721555052nta but it's pretty disingenuous because that movie took 7 years to make.
>>721554469Trying to hard
>>721554469Not trying hard enough.
>>721554889wierd take. in the last 20 years I saw people everywhere on the internet talk about 2000s anime all the time. many of the most famous series in the history of the medium are 2000s anime like Death Note, Code Geass, Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, Haruhi Suzumiya, Naruto, Ghost In The Shell Stand Alone Complex, ect etc. Not to mention hundreds of great and lesser-known series like Eureka Seven, Welcome To The NHK, Darker Than Black, Wolf's Rain, etc. etc. Really great, varied, and experimental decade overall. Definitely my favorite when it comes to anime
>>721554889I really love the colors from the early 2000s when they were still figuring everything out.https://youtu.be/2flBZokpGck?si=Dq615EYmqFlb9GYJ
>>721555397The ED of Mob looks just like >>721530728Redline would not have been possible to make with cels, it would have been too labor intensive. Digital IMPROVED that movie. You're just wrong and /a/ is sadly a shit dead board that's not worth posting on any more and this thread was a blatantly off topic thread to recruit people for a shitty thread full of dumb redditors.
>>721555052That Mob ED looks leagues better than your mach gogogo rip off
>>721552906>Imaishishit(笑)
>>721555157Anno actually. Its from Nadia which is all about turn of the century Jules Verne adventures and has some of the worst filler episodes I've ever seen in my life. The AMV filler episode was great tho.
>>721554469Trying just hard enough.
>>721555190You think ttgl is so great that its impossible for two different people to say its not the peak of anime in one thread? You know nothing of the world or anime. Fool.
>>721555619I'd say the 2000s was the golden age for video games too.
>>721553228>cel coloring style?>yeah, we can emulate that with digital>do it for a full series?>no thanksFuck Japan.
>>721551593>Shadow SkillAn action show that doesn't get talked enough
>>721553976Look at the writer, you dumb fuck.
>>721535827>>721535897OH SHIT NIGGER I WAS SEARCHING FOR THIS FOR AGEShttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXZ2bTigdGY
>>721556010I've only heard of it because of the opening:https://youtu.be/sDc-wjzdle4?si=2yaLMh3qOzjSJC3W
>>721555063>hack-yindeed
>>721556010Time for a rewatch.
>>721551446I will never get that OP out of my head. Nor the stained-panties cakehttps://youtu.be/46YfUjm5zBI
>>721555884>You know nothing of the world or anime. Fool. Who the fuck invited this chuuni ass nigga here? You gonna say "I have to go all out just this once, sorry sensei" next? Loser.
Illusion City was translated recently. It's neat, but not very good. The last two dungeons are infuriating with HP sponge enemies spammed at you.
>>721556304This is why no one uses /a/ any more
>>721553491this looks like shit.
>>721556301Elle Ragu is an underrated girl.
>>721522110I wonder how long she stuck around before looking for a new boyfriend when Parn kicked the bucket.
>>721553665holy shit this is so bad and over animated. Like a spastic elden ring fight
>>721554887Yuri is trash and yurifags are obnoxious. No amount of "but they're all for me and I'm super straight!" will change that.
>>721556452Honey & Clover broke /a/? What?
>>721522110Does anyone have that another gif with Deedlit and Parn where she stares at him flirtly?
>>721556571So no argument gotcha.
>>721556492She's great. She's also voiced by Megumi Hayashibara, so she's perfect.
>>721542245Was a very cringe time but it grew on me.Teen Titians was a hit right away though.
>>721541638I love how it randomly bounces between the shittiest Hanna Barbera cartoon you've ever seen, the best Hanna Barbera cartoon you've ever seen, and a Disney masterpiece.
>>721556732The only worthy pajeeta ever.
>>721552791The Lodoss metroidvania was okay.
>>721543270VGH kino piece
>>721556897>The only worthy pajeeta ever.*cough*
>>721556637/a/ is full of morons with rose tinted goggles on going "remember the shit version of that thing" for no other reason than it being old
>>721554768>>721554516thanks i will look them up
>>721557057>nambel candlestickThey might as well have called her "India Curryhut".
>>721530541Good recommendations. Also try the other Akira Toriyama games.
>>721557461>Good recommendationsNot even a single one of those games is worth playing
>>721540693Why do you say Lodoss? What about Robot Carnival?
>>721557461>Good recommendationsAll of those games are absolutely worth playing.
>>721556707>redditorChecks out
