Its so freaking surprising to me that the original manga was a comedy. like not a gag series but definitely light hearted and humurous. and basically every other interpretations were serious.the only adaptation that was faithful both in style and tone was the ps1 game's cutscenes. Hope they manage to make an ova or mini series that faithfully has the manga's style and tone cuz just by watchibg the limited amount of the ps1 cutscenes, I was sold

Would Helga Pataki be yandere or tsundere? I really need to rewatch Psycho Pass, I loved it but don't remember much. Also, Shogo reminds me a lot of Hideo Kuze from GitS season 2, I wonder if there was any inspiration there, not sure which came first in the manga.

so many great villains in anime, so damn many. The one who first comes to mind for me is Kazundo Gouda from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig. What a gigantic piece of shit he is. A classic all-round evil, slimy sack of crap. And one that is scarily similar to real world villains who manipulate political events for their own ends, often at the result of the loss of innocent lives. Can't trust a guy who gets half his face blown off and decides to keep it looking messed up, in a world where such things can be fixed perfectly, just so he can make people uncomfortable.

I hadn't read your comment before I left mine, funny we both mention Gits season 2 lol Yeah he was a huge piece of shit. I remember I first watched 2nd gig when all the refugee stuff in Europe was starting, was amazed at the parallels between the show and real life.

JoJo's Steel Ball Run. I know the whole thing is a race but it has the same feel. And I love love love the troupe of the guy no one expects to win coming out on top. In Steel Ball Run the winning players stand ability is only to give encouragement to its user. Technically the weakest ability ever seen in that series.

For me this movie felt like the final encore just before the curtains come down for the last time. The Wind Rises was, in a lot of ways, the final Studio Ghibli movie. After that, Miyazaki said "Good night, that's all folks!" and left the stage. But just like at a good music concert the audience kept applauding and shouted "Encore!" so Miyazaki, Hisashi, Suzuki etc. came back up on stage and said "Ok. One more!". Just like you said, this movie feels like a jazzy mix-up of all the previous Ghibli movies rolled up into one. You have shades of Spirited Away, Howl's moving castle, Grave of the fireflies, My neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke etc. Enough for you to smile and say "I get that reference!" but not so much that it feels like pandering. The movie also ends on a beautiful final note that becomes so much more meaningful if you know the backstory of Studio Ghibli: For years Miyazaki tried desperately to find a successor to take over the studio, finally settling on Yoshifumi Kondo. He was the perfect guy to take over once Miyazaki and Takahata couldn't do it anymore. He understood the style and tone Miyazaki wanted Studio Ghibli to aim for. But, sadly, Kondo passed away at a young age and couldn't take over the reins like intended. In a fit of anger and desperation Miyazaki said that he would retire and give up on both animation and the studio after "Princess Mononoke". He then, obviously, came back and directed a couple of more movies but the question about what would happen to the studio was left unanswered. Then Miyazaki's son Goro tried to show his dad that maybe he could take over. That it was better to "keep it in the family" rather than to just let the studio die. It ended in disaster. "Tales from Earthsea" - the movie Goro made to show his dad that he could direct movies in the Ghibli style - is the only true dud in the studios filmography. It doesn't feel like a Ghibli movie because Goro doesn't have the artistic sensibilities of his dad. It led to a huge rift between father and son since Miyazaki felt that Goro had embarrassed himself (and the studio) and also because Miyazaki felt that Goro shouldn't force himself to do something he wasn't cut out for. They finally mended their relationship, somewhat, some years later when they did "From up on Poppy Hill" together. Goro didn't get to take over the studio but at least Miyazaki showed him what kind of movie he had wanted Goro to make. It also gave Goro the chance to exit the studio on a high note rather than after the disater that was Earthsea, saving face and all. Then studio Ghibli went on to make "When Marnie was there" and "The wind rises" and that was it. Studio Ghibli closed, Miyazaki retired and it was over. You can see all of this play out - kind of - in "The boy and the heron" but rather than ending on a depressing note Miyazaki gives it a positive spin. He tells us that it's ok if Studio ghibli is no more. Everything dies, eventually. Instead of mourning, use your imagination and creativity and go out there and create something beautiful in a field that suits you. Don't follow in my footsteps. Find your own path. The perfect encore to close one of the best careers in animation.

The Dark Tournament is still #1 for me. I love Frieren, but the mage trial was my least favorite part. I didn't connect with any of the new characters that were introduced, and I have always disliked the trope of battling your own clone. That trope is overdone and Frieren went the 'personality-less doll' route which is very boring, instead of having enemies that are real characters, or villains that would add more to the story. I love your discussions as always (love the Battle City mention)!
@GatewaytoAnime16 күн бұрын
Fair enough! Everyone has there own tastes and there are so many tropes of the genre. There weren’t very many actual antagonists in the Frieren tournament arc but there are some fun characters like Denken. The Dark Tournament is so perfect though, hard to beat!
