>watching out of order

reeee

It is a superower kind of anime, people there posess some sort of superhuman abilities and fight in rather well drawn scenes

What. some of us watched this stuff on Adult Swim back in the day.

But sadly that describes at least a hundred of animu

tho also i loved the music cuz of the orchestral shit mixed with fucking soarin guitar solos while theyre up in the sky fighting. it was just all aesthetic AF

LOL my hero academia sounds like that from what ive heard

Aesthetic is always good.

yeah that is an extremely wide scope lmao

lol > watching out of order

That is a recipe for confusion

It sometimes works.

yeah especially in an anime based on another anime

I mean, I watched Casshern sins out of order and got most of it.

Bakemonogatari kinda works out of order

You can watch most superhero anime out of order and enjoy it.

But then again there is an overarching plot

It is just hella cryptic

that's mostly because of how abstract it is

*monogatari might even be more amusing out of order.

and it's not even in order when you watch it in order

Abstract isn't really enough to make it out-of-order watchable though.

I consider it modern art

I'd never watch Lain out of order.

Like serious display of some new form of

it's like fucking

kara no kyoukai

Actually, isn't it filmed not in chronological order already?

where chronologically it's like 3, 4, 1, 2, 6, 5, 7 or some shit

It is not chronological in its progression, yes

KNK gives you dates and hints though.

But that is part of the story

lol at one point i just realised i didnt really like some animes but that i was just a sucker for landscape paintings LOL go figure too it was when i had an Art History class

lol.

ah i looked it up. KNK goes 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 6, 7

I didn't like Texhnolyse, and fell asleep on first few episodes

good thing nobody told george lucas he was allowed to do that

But then I woke up on an interesting bit and was hooked

Btw Texhnolyse pace is intentionally painfully slow

I'd explain why, but it would be spoilers

lol like i watched the new fate zero when that came out and was like WAIT THERES AN OLDER ANIME

i watch too much anime to stick through the painfully slow ones

so i ended up rewatching it after watching fate stay night

oh no please tell me you didn't watch D E E N

ohhh nooooooo

Where does one find D E E N?

you should have waited for unlimited blade works

deen is the studio that made the original fate stay night

I mean, where would one watch it.

Texhnolyse is amazing. In its art, in the plot twists and in the kind of philosophical questionings it throws at you

It's like mythically bad or something.

hmm well i havent seen unlimited blade works i should prolly watch it

i don't know, most places stopped having it when UBW came out

it's just fate/stay night, but good

TBH, I didn't like UBW that much.

ohhhh sick fuck yeah i missed out hahaha

they ripped f/sn from deens virgin hands and gave it to chad UFOtable

For me Ghost in the Shell, Texhnolyse and Ergo Proxy are masterpieces because they are so deep. They have a whole philosophy behind them, a lot of heavy stuff to ponder over.

And they all bring it about naturally, without ruining the story

i feel watching Ghost in the Shell would be fun just to see how the newer movie is compared to it

even for a laugh

yeah exposition is the killer of plots

or should i say ESPECIALLY for the laughs

GitS could still hold up a candle to many modern movies and anime

what if they had remade the original gits scene for scene, line for line

FFS Matrix was based off it

Or inspired, however you spin it

Gits 1995 is a classic and remains so.

but is the new movie any good?

Worth a watch.

Good movie. Did not ruin the series.

It's not *bad*, per se, but if you're a fan of the original, it falls short

GiTS: SAC can be a little slow at times and lacks the atmosphere. But it's still good (possibly better) on it's own merits

It is a cash grab, but at least it is true to the origin.

Was too short for me

GiTS: Arise is relatively lacking, but a nice entry if you can avoid spending lots of money to see it.

okok still as long as it doesnt completely crash in a hindenberg-esque flame of suckery

the actress being white was the dumbest complaint ever tbh

@Revan GitS does not have an overarching plot story between installments. Each season is in their own separate timeline

So the movie fits right in

That's not why I said it falls short

In my opinion, it falls short because it dropped a lot of the deeper meaning from the original

@Tohob Actress could have been black male for all I care - she is AN ANDROID, she can look like anything and anyone

yup

A machine with interchangeable parts duuh

and even assuming she would want to look like a local, it's the future

how much race mixing has gone on since present day

Well, looking like a local would tend to help with blending in

The way movie is set up, her looks are utterly irrelevant too XD

I guess it's still contextual, even then

it's not like a white person would be particularly out of place

Rumor is that in the original manga she takes a body based off a "westerner" anyways.

Not only was it a dumb thing to get hung up on to start with, it may have been accurate to the original source.

not anime but have any of u guys seen Altered Carbon?? i saw it and then readd it got alot of shit from its depiction of violence against women.... like YO ITS A SCI FI DYSTOPIAN SHOW LIKW WHAT DO U EXPECT

👌🏻

Which would have made it go from banal to simply incorrect.

and its not like men dont get fuckin killed in it lol

Yeah, the whole point of GiTS is human versus machine anyway.

@Revan I don't want to spoil it, but there is a good reason why she is not asian in the movie. That is kinda the plot point.

People looking for excuses to get angry.

@Uksio I understand that
