>>734167150it's serviceableand of course high bar for modern anime
>>734167093
>>734167150It used to get snubbed because it was always compared to Trigun, but its a good show.
>>734166973Game/girl?
>>734166973>replay mass effect>this time i wont interact with Tali at all>end up only interacting with Tali
>>734167275Who the fuck compared it to trigun? I never personally saw that happening. That's trippy.

>>734167481Older anime fans back when the available shows in English were much more limited. If you watched pirated subs, you saw Trigun before Outlaw Star. If you watched adult swim, you saw Trigun after Outlaw star. But they were close enough in release date that they were pretty commonly compared. It was mostly compared to Trigun because Cowboy Bebop was the darling of the community and anime fans elevated bebop above the other two.

>>734167150it's a great show from a time before anime became the most boring, derivative thing in existence
>>734167830Glad I missed those discussions then.
>>734167225The only person I know who deliberately does immoral things in video games is a huge redditor
>>734167150It's alright
>>734167361It isn't any particular game or girl, I've done this with multiple games.I played a WEG called "Null Hypothesis" which is an X-Men porn game, but quickly became only interested in Rogue and the game quickly became a X-Men school VN with me banging by girlfriend Rogue on the regular between having a weirdly intense platonic relationship with two other girls.
>>734167150It has an outstanding premise, a main plot less interesting than the episodic filler, a side cast that mogs the main character, and a clusterfuck of an ending. So a typical 90s Sunrise anime.
>>734167150It's okay.
>>734166973I know that feel. Feels good
>>734169787I don't think it's filler. I think it's the typical "journey" setup. You set up the journey to some place, then talk about the various events and adventures that happened along the way.I swear, anime fans have gotten so burnt by big seasonal anime's use of filler, they'd claim Homer's Odyssey is nothing but filler content.
>Play dating sim titled "classmates">Date the adults instead
>>734170584I'm not saying that to slight the anime (except to say that the main plot was less interesting), it simply has a strong enough cast of characters that a bunch of episodic stories are that interesting. In fact I consider that to be Sunrise's main strength at that point in time, that they can either create or attach themselves to settings and casts strong enough that they have strong individual episodes. They just also had a tendency to attach themselves to creators who couldn't write an interesting overarching series-wide plot to save their lives.
>>734171007Are you me?
>>734167150It's ok, has definitely survived on peak aesthetics and a banger opening.Story is very mid, but if you're looking for old school sci fi it's worthwhile.
>>734167996>It's an anon overrates a mid anime from 90s episode againWhy do people always do this? Outlaw Star was okay, nothing more. Barely better than Bebop.
>>734167150It's one of the big3 for 90s scfi bounty hunter anime.
>>734171830Good setting, good cast, banger opening, tits.
>>734167150Crash is literally the best action theme in all of anime.
>>734166973
>>734167275>snubbedFucking whatMost everyone I knew loved both. Also let's not pretend Trigun is much better, the second half is literally just the "make Vash suffer" season and becomes tedious as a result. Manga did it better.
>>734171830Same reason why 7/10 games from the 00s are highly praised 9/10s these days. We simply had it better back then.
>>734167150It's become my favorite anime over the years. The sense of a space adventure is unmatched. (Even better of a space adventure than the literal Space Adventure Cobra) Melfina is such a cutie, too.
>>734172002She completely fucking BTFOs the competition
>>734172161It has great loreJust the entire multiple planet federation, the reference do Chinese energy theory leylines put to a universal scale, great stuffAlso he dresses like Spike in one episode because the manga was out I think. If you like cowboy bebop (who doesn’t?) you gotta watch it>>734166973My computer can’t run any good porn games, thankfully
>>734166973Suzuka is a strage character in this show, Is she an amazing baddass or is she a jobber? The narrative flops between both.
I'm no Fred but I've never been a fan of gorilla women either.
>>734172375Gamehub Lite on your phone, nigga.>>734172392I wanted to like Suzuka more but she's the most boring one after her arc ends.>oh you people are so le interesting
>>734171965>good castThis is false and the rest is literal style over substance shit.
For me things just tend to fall apart once you enter a heroine's route proper. The most interesting thing, especially if it's a VN focused on romance over plot, is the build up between the protagonist and said heroine. Once the protagonist and heroine get together it just turns into setting up the next sex scene for the most part and then some kind of bad drama to have an ending.
What's a good VN with some decent player agency?
>>734172658Usually, unless the plot actually has shit going on like Fate. I'm guessing it's because the people writing these aren't in relationships so they can't get a handle on how to make one interesting.
>>734172645Wrong, and don't care
>>734167150Bebop > Outlaw Star >>>>>> Trigun
>>734171007Based
>>734167093based and kindpilled
>>734172685Unironically school days. No other VN has this much route branches in a single VN.>b-but Kagetsu Tohya-Fuck off that shit has true ending, if you have to so all the routes, that's not player agency.
>>734173038lol no.
>>734172685Wani and snootgame
>>734171007>anon with an adult woman fetish posting freelyshut it down.
>OS manga still not translatedNOOOOOOOOOO
>>734167150It's fine. Opening is good.
>play porn game>best girl doesn't get a single sceneFuck you monster black market
>>734173140The way the game branches out is also retarded, and you cannot easily skip to next choice because sometimes the game would skip a choice and go to the next one.Game is miserable to play, but it being fully animated is such a cool concept.
>>734166973Me and Toph on romance route on 4 elements trainer, at least before the degenerate ending
>>734167093Based
sex with Aisha
>>734173897If you aren't a shota genius, Aisha don't care.
>>734166973Outlaw Star is overrated
>>734167150has best girl
>>734173951based Ctarl-Ctarl females /ss/ing all the terran males
>>734173965Is it though?Most people see it as a mid-show. The sad thing even with it being mid it is still much better than current anime.
>>734174108It is, mostly by people whose first anime were trigun, outlaw star, and cowboy bebop.
>>734173965You want overrated? How about shit like konosuba.
>>734170169>doesn’t have enough scenes >never will
>>734174017
>>734167201>>734167996>>734171830anime peaked in the 80s and 90s because asset bubble thing happened in the 70s and 80s which made it so OVAs were viable and you could sell anime to adults and a lot of talented artists and writers started making anime and manga directed at other nips at the time because it was a decent career due to japan's strong economy. the bubble burst in the 90s so by the early 2000s a lot of the good writers and artists fucked off to other industries and were replaced by losers who were just copying old anime instead of preanime sources like books or going outside. The other thing is the jpy stagnated in the 90s but they found out they could export anime to the US and those mexican countries so anime became more global/wester appealing instead of being made specifically for japanese losers with too much money and that killed a lot of the reason anime was good >>734171830shitpost and bait
>>734174108Nigga how is Plus Sized Elf or Redo of Healer mid
>>734174781SG fags being retarded is just business as usual at this point.
>>734174781So which one is it? It can't have peaked in both the 80s and 90s.
>>734174678Be glad she got any in a weg
>>734174896you do realize the 80s happened right after the 90s right? the first japanese ova came out in 1983. Akira was 1988 and GitS was 1995. The industry didn't die all at once. it just trailed off after the asset bubble popped. the actual peak peak was probably when the asset bubble popped >>734174857what the fuck are you talking about you gay retard?
>>734174597Konosuba is just fun and nobody pretends otherwise. OSfags act like their show belongs in the anime top ten because they saw it when they were 10.
>>73417489680s was the peak for anime in general. 90s was the peak for anime that appealed specifically to the west so they could chase overseas contracts.
>>734175279I wouldn't go that far. Many OS fans admit that Cowboy Bebop is the better show, for instance.
>>734175539Bebop is superior as it only has one dead spot (the feng shui episode). OS suffers from a lack of direction and rotating animation teams that led to too many “good plot but looks terrible” episodes. That said, Aisha and Melfina mog Faye any day.
>>734174835Ignore shitlennials, they think anything they grew up with is peak.
>>734171830>Shit;Gate
>>734174835>>734175824Do you guys actually like those shows or are you memeing?
>>734171830Steins;Reddit fags are so retarded.
>>734175747>thinks the "Jet meets his future bride" episode is a dead spotokay
>>734166973>monogamous species>uhhh guys monogamy bad????
>>734176625>monogamous speciesSure hope you don't mean humans. Inb4 you don't know the historical reasons behind marriage.
>>734167093Better than the people that always pick the bad guy choices then come on here and bitch nonstop that they cant be evil enough.
>>734176625If that was true then men wouldn't be able to effortlessly impregnate multiple females.
>>734167150It has one of the best girl in anime in it as a part of the main cast.
