Bad CG looks way worse than Bad 2D.
Like, if you made me choose whether to watch some shit show by DEEN or, say, the Berserk movie, I'll take the DEEN show.

You wouldn't really think about it since the character doesn't really get a lot of speaking time in the show. He is more or less a background figure towering over everyone.

I am not. They are doing it themself already.
And nothings speaks "saving the industry" like the shitty incoherent Sasami@Unmotivated...

OOPS
It's an anime made for the worst type of otaku, that really creepy fat, greasy ones. Oh, and kids.

Few are hating on them ... when they produce great shows , we all enjoy it ( madoka is teh perfect example of this )
It's a "sell our toys" show.
At the start it was a show about magical girls doing kick ass things ( kicking their ennemies and unleashing their yuri power move on them ) and after all those years it became more generic.
Sayonara Zetsubo sensei sales was quite healthy so was their Monogatari sales.
Also, I wasn't talking about sales, morally, they win.
Its me against you (all)and I will not change my position. SHAFT is awesome and there is nothing you can do to change my mind.
This is war!
and I like the fact that you added oops like you won some sort of big argument or something. My comment wasn't even that serious, but toungue-and-cheek. Stop being insecure!

I'll let you know that I have a skin as smooth as a baby!
Ouch, 1/3 of Tamako Market.
*embraces
start at the first series Futari Wa Precure. Its well worth watching.
The art looks quite cuter than I was expecting.
No need for war. shaft is amazing and wonderful.

If you think about it Sasami-san really has the moral highground in anime.
Or this could be a case of not thinking about it.
Such a wholesome work.

Wolf Children soon? OMG YES
I see Araki still hasn't learned to draw women.
Return of the revenge of the editing comment mini-scrollbar!
Or you know, some of us skinny clean people too.
They all are. Actually Futari Wa Precure in 18 episodes has already tried to sell me on about 15 things. Every other episode they are introducing some new gadget that is clearly a toy line.

There's actually very little, if any, in the case of fanservice in most seasons of Precure. Fresh seems to be the exception with those low-angle shots.
Exceptions.
I'm jk (mostly), the show looks good from gifs (even though I feel it's very formulaic).
Psycho-Pass is a much better show right now. It really spiked in quality, IMO.
Really now?
As the survival of the industry is directly tied to how healthy its sales are.
In what way?

Really? It doesn't look like it from all the screens. But still their overall appearance and gestures looks a lot like pander to me -just imagine them with +10 years. I may be strange though.
Is a Moejita really a Moejita if it doesn't have Kirino hair?
What does this mean? I haven't seen any Precure show, so...is it like short action figure/doll ads before the scheduled commercial break?
Good.
Shaft is one of the best studios. Quit arguing about it and just accept it.
Futari Wa has no fanservice at all that I have seen. Well no ecchi fanservice. Plenty of :Cajun fanservice.
It is VERY formulaic. But that works for it not against it in this case.

What if Moejita is tomodachi wa mahou

Your crime is even worse in this case as Doki Doki designs are eyecancer.

A lot of the gadgets and tools used by the Precures are actually toys you can buy in Japan. Of course there are probably action figures and dolls of the mascots as well. I wouldn't mind getting a Pop plushie, btw.

You're both missing my point
It's a "sell our toys" show.
But i'm sad that they abbandonned the yuri beam spamming move on the 4th season and never looked back. i'm sad that some season ( suite , yes precure ) don't have nearly as much fighting as they should have.
It means the show gives the Precure girls a new gadget that looks like it was meant to be on asale as a toy. a "lovemeter" for example in episode 17 where two characters put their hand on the device and it measures love compatibility. Its such a blatant toy sell. And then theres the transformation devices where you SLIDE A TRADING CARD IN THE SLOT TO ACTIVATE IT. Its all so clearly made for mass consumption but thats part of the charm. they are still good shows despite the product whoring.
But like, if you were watching the show, how would you know that those gadgets and tools were also toys?
Edit:
What are the units the lovemeter measures love by?
That reminds me, guess what finally releases this week
Amazon says its gonna arrive at my house tomorrow (2/19). I hope they're not lying.
Are you talking about like the Precure Marble Screw attack where they hold hands?
the meter has lights that light up and then it plays a little tune and lights up a heart in the middle if the two characters have matching love interest.

To be fair, I really wasn't aware that most of the stuff in Smile Precure were also toys till one of the episodes had a mini commercial for the new Royal Clock!
I assume most of the promotion for the show also couples in Buy Our Toys!
They're lying. I already swapped your order with the first Berserk movie.
...What use could they possibly have for that? And how can it even tell if people are matching love interests? What is it basing that on?
...
I feel like I'm missing the point here.
