Rogue Hero ep.11

"IT'S ON MOTHERFUCKER!"

Sorry, that's all I got.

 

[jonjonaug]

Holy shit Yuasa Devilman.

Holy shit I just...

Holy shit.

I have to admit I've not read or watched Devilman in any form.

Is that Cyborg 009 vs. Devilman OVA any good?

YES OH MY GOD

Watch the two OVAs from the late 80s/early 90s then read the manga first though so you can fully appreciate just how well the creators of this NAILED Devilman tho.

EDIT: Don't watch the Amon OVA it's garbage.

 

[PshycoNinja]

MORE YUASA!

JUST GIVE HIM ALL THE SHOWS!

Noooooo...

This is me.

 

[OniBarubary]

Did anyone else just see what Science Saru's twitter just tweeted out? Yuasa is directing some sort of Devilman reboot, releasing on Netflix in 2018. How much work can he possibly take on at once!?

It looks really cool, though the name is a bit silly.

Uh...holy shit? That's huge.


Also, late on the train to this but Season 2 of Overlord means animated Lizardman Arc which is far and away the best arc with the best characters and best story. Should be really really good.

Lizardmen are awesome.

 

[Jex]

I've never read/watched anything Devilman, so it will be interesting for me, apart from the Yuasa factor.

I'm in the same boat as you; never really paid much attention to Devilman before. It'll be interesting for sure!

Y'all should watch the first two Devilman OVA's because they're really, really good.

 

[Sterok]

Kobayashi's Dragon Maid 10

I liked this episode. Brings together the whole cast for some fun banter.

 

[Tuck]

Konosuba2 - END
Good finale. More actiony than funny, but enjoyable.

Need season 3 asap plz.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

K-ON!! 20

And so the march towards graduation begins. I am brought back to how painful my own high school graduation was.

 

[LotusHD]

Konosuba ends today? Nooooooooooo

 

[Dave1988]

Where's the Fassbender gif when you need it? Ah, there it is.

\

Fantastic episode to end the season with. It's gonna be a long wait for S3 T__T

 

[Cornbread78]

Rogue Hero-END
Ok, add this show to the shit pile by ending the show while starting a new arc/plotline. Fuck this shit. At least it's off my list now..

 

[OniBarubary]

Wiz stepping her game the fuck up.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

HEYBOT! Episode 22 – Heybot-Style Kitchen Battle?!

Oh wow he was back this episode.

Some of the rejected designs looked great. Kind of wish it took place in school as the characters for that looked quite good.

Chigiru looks amazing, cant wait for more of him next episode.

 

[Andrew J.]

Maidragon 10

Aww, that was sweet. And The Little Match Girl is stupid as-is, glad they changed it.

Konosuba S2 10

Some nice animation upgrades with Wiz and Aqua's big attacks.

 

[Clov]

Y'all should watch the first two Devilman OVA's because they're really, really good.

I'll make sure to check them out whenever I have time. Right now BotW is distracting me from most of my anime watching.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

It's finally over. This season was good from start to finish.

While not as comedic as the rest of the episodes, this finale gave us some really beautiful shots and animation. It's also a bittersweet ending but that's par for the course for the main cast.

I do hope we get a Season 3.

 

[PshycoNinja]

The Devil is a Part Timer (Rewatch) 1-3

Scrolling through Netflix and decided to watch this again last night. Forgot just how amazing it was. Season 2 when!?!?!?!

Specifically the teaser PV is here. Ichiro Okouchi (Code Geass, Kabaneri) is writing the script and Kensuke Ushio (Ping Pong, A Silent Voice) is composing the music.

Holy fuuuuuuck!

So this a Gundam Thunderbolt S2 mecha design...

Aww geez, guys, don't take my lunch money or my mom will get angry with me!

I hope it's not the main character's mech. It looks so dorky.

Looks like a mech that eats alone at lunch or even worse with a Ball Gundam.

Pretty sure the Atlas is the main suit no?

And judging from the main visual it is

Finally, OUTLAW STAR is coming!

It's a GM with a Gundam head. Io doesn't use them, though he does use a regular GM type C briefly

Later the characters that use them upgrade to Ground Gundams

Also Atlas is literally a Ball Gundam

Konosuba 2 - 10

Crazy visual display once again. Not only was this season a whole 1 or 2 steps above on the comedy front, but on the animation side as well.

Gonna miss this show. I was hoping that the announcement for a 3rd season would be waiting for me at the end but alas, that did not happen. Or did it...

Spoiler

"Our true battle has only just begun!"

Gives us more Deen!!!

 

[JCG]

Specifically the teaser PV is here. Ichiro Okouchi (Code Geass, Kabaneri) is writing the script and Kensuke Ushio (Ping Pong, A Silent Voice) is composing the music.

Yuasa's influence alone would make this an interesting watch and the PV looks pretty rad. I also can't wait to see people probably trying to credit/blame Okouchi for any plot twists or shocking stuff that Go Nagai may have already included in the original Devilman, Demon Lord Dante or even Violence Jack.

 

[duckroll]

I can't wait to call anyone who disses the art or animation a... CRYBABY.

 

[GoldCrusader]

Funimation is releasing Akito the exiled OVAs in June.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Specifically the teaser PV is here. Ichiro Okouchi (Code Geass, Kabaneri) is writing the script and Kensuke Ushio (Ping Pong, A Silent Voice) is composing the music.

Any clue if it's following the original story? Some shots seem to imply it.

Yuasa is perfect for Nagai's linework.

 

[Valdfellgar]

Something seems off with all these Mecha designs. I can't put my finger on it, like they're all a bit too wide or something.

Anyway Patlabor OVA
Finally got a chance to finish these. I really loved the Godzilla Spoof, Ghost, and Brocken episodes. I think I still prefer the way the characters are written for the TV and Films, but it was great to finally watch the OVAs in their entirety. I'd only scene the first five episodes before.

Next up is rewatching Gundam Wing. Going to try and expose my Wife to it a bit. She liked G Gundam for how ridiculous it is, and based off the first episode I think she might get similar enjoyment out of Wing.

Gintama - 180But of course, precisely as predicted, we get the obligatory sob-backstory, kinda-redemption and Tsukuyo supporting Jiraia so he can gaze upon the moon one last time, clearly in parallel to Housen and the sun (which itself is nice admittedly). It's extremely formulaic by now and the only way I'll get to care for moments like these is if the writing is concise, on point and the villain already felt at least slightly relatable beforehand. I won't shed a tear for a maniac who, while grinning, proclaims his inane actions full of murderous intent, just because you then tack on a supremely tragic story at the very end. I mean, the guy's seriously lying there with a massive cut to his neck and both him and Shounen-Jump-Ninja narrate his backstory for minutes on end. Rather cliched. He just tried to destroy all of Yoshiwara and killing many of its citizens for fucks sake, and every one of those people has their own, perhaps tragic, backstory. I find it perverse how hard the show attempts to get us to empathize with the major scumbags but pays little attention to the small people in these circumstances. It was the worst for the Shinsengumi Crisis arc where literally dozens of loyal Shinsengumi grunts died fighting for Kondo but when Itou is about to die Gin, Kondo and Hijikata risk their lives in order to save his, with Gin (I think) even literally taking the bullet for him. All while grunts are still dying left, right and center.

Since Kagura's brother killed tens of the Hyakka grunts, pretty much for fun, I'd hope he won't get much screen time for his redemption but by now I'm certain it's going to happen.

I'll reply to the replies concerning my previous post in a bit.

Late to the party.

I wouldn't shed a tear for Jiraia either, that doesn't make his backstory less important. No matter how far we fall, we can still be forgiven.

Fuck you Shoji, fuck you.

I just personally don't like his style. It doesn't appeal to me. So I guess... I'm a crybaby.

Fuck you Shoji, fuck you.

you should continue on to episode 13 :3

 

[thequickandthedead]

Just got back from watching A Silent Voice. Good adaptation but a bit annoyed about some of the parts they cut and the non-ending.

Devilman Crybaby intends to adapt the entire original manga and be faithful to the tone, violence, eroticism, and the original ending. It will bring Nagai's original vision to audience with modern animation techniques. It will debut in early Spring 2018 worldwide on Netflix with 25 subtitle options and 10 spoken languages (Japanese + 9 dubs).

You know, I've seen you say this a few times already, but I still don't understand it. Yuasa typically doesn't stick to one sort of style. The Tatami Galaxy looks nothing like Kaiba, which looks nothing like Kemonozume, which looks nothing like Ping-Pong, etc. Looking at the PV for Devilman, it once again doesn't look like his prior projects. Do you just not like any of his styles at all, or is it just that you dislike anything that doesn't fall under typical anime design? I honestly don't get it.

Wow! Sounds like a pretty ambitious project. Netflix really is throwing that money around.

Probably going to have the usual people Aniplex uses to dub in English, so it'll have a good dub.

That sounds awesome. Which also serves to reinforce my previous point.

This does looks pretty amazing. Great character designs and loved the people singing at the end.

First time I'm hearing about it though and a quick search shows nothing.

This is a tv series airing this year?

 

[jonjonaug]

I've been waiting for a full Devilman adaptation since I first got into anime like, 13-14 or so years ago. I'm so happy.

Chaco has a good design, cant wait for the voice cast.

Twin Star Exorcist ep.48
What the fuck is Hairspay doing in the middle of my anime? WTF was that? The rest of the episode was alright, but, what a weird thing to add into something that should be dramatic and empowering for Rokuro.

 

[Hellwarden]

Children of the Whales PV

...Isn't the director the guy who directed Occultic;Nine?

If so, please let him be reined in.

 

[duckroll]

The best part is, with Netflix being the exclusive distributor, no one has to even worry a single bit about TV ratings guidelines, or it getting "Berserk TV'd" or whatever. All the good and all the bad can be shown. It just depends on how Yuasa wants to depict it. This is really... a dream come true.

 

[Joe Molotov]

OST of the year too.

I want to buy it.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Children of the Whales PV

Looks incredible.

finally someone makes an anime of those who spend too much on freemium games.
