i'm just looking for the kind of anime that makes you go, "what the fuck is that, Nietzsche? shut the fuck up"
as per our conversation the other day, it's not the stilted/cheesy stuff that I have a problem with. I enjoy that kind of stuff (sometimes). it's that I felt like it was a graft that didn't take. the trunk was just shonen garbage and the grafted branch was something smart.

you mean you feel like urobuchi's style didn't mesh well with fate? because i am definitely more a fan of him than the ip. idk, i thought the long scenes of dialogue intercut with impressive action sequences, all character driven, were pretty good? that's basically his signature.

I could lie and say I totally referenced Aldnoah knowing that it had the same writer but that was an accident. My subconscious knew all along that I'm just horny for mecha and don't have a good excuse. Psycho Pass was great and Madoka is in my top 5 though.

Psycho Pass season 1 was ace and I'm also a Madoka fan. Dunno what happened with Psycho Pass s2 tho, felt like they were really spinning their wheels. He's one of the few directors in anime I follow, the other being Masaaki Yuasa.

so I just couldn't watch ANY of that and not be thinking the whole time like "wow that's a whole line of toys ready to go isn't it" and that was INCREDIBLY distracting from the content.
-
maybe I'm just fooling myself and if it was mecha I'd have liked it better. cooler toys in any case.
-
like, I managed to get through Aldnoah Zero pretty easily and it's similarly just shonen garbage with some intellectual shit grafted on top. Still, I thought that was better than Fate/Zero. Let's not even talk of how awful the rest of the Fate franchise is.
-
i think we're just gonna have to agree to disagree on this one because i feel like we're describing two different shows haha
