Yeah but you have pretty terrible taste, so you shouldn't try to assume anyone here has the same opinions as you. Just stating the harsh truth here. You even make up bullshit reasons to try to "explain" why you like lower quality video. Please.

My impression is only that I didn't finish it. It was certainly weird, but I didn't really find it entertaining.

I don't think slapping photoshop filters ontop of your anime is necessarily the right way to create a particular tone or mood.
Depends on if you are a fan of the effects or not. I'm sure it can be done badly, and like duckroll has said, I haven't seen it.
However I've never met a filter effect I didn't like yet.
History books can be wrong!
In any case, he was no doubt a large contributor. But there were many others as well, it's simply not possible for one poster alone to explain that explosion.
I'm sure your avatar would know a thing or two about that!
Invalidating someones taste by stating your own as correct...hmmm
I didn't say that. Only that by not having seen it, he has no valid opinion at all. That's the truth. His taste is valid, I just think it's bad. That's a different issue.

I loled when it happened in the manga and I loled here. Dammit Yuki :/
Epic stuff going on. Kind of wish I could erase my memory of the manga for this part. It's just batshit insane for the rest of the series.
Wasn't expecting another post-credits Murmur segment considering recent... events. Oh well, it was funny even if it went on for a bit too long.

They're just following the lead of the critically-acclaimed, Perfect Averything-produced Angel Beats.
Exactly!

Didnt read the manga, but since Yuno was the god previously, did she already know the identities of all of the players, as well as what they would do, especially since she went back in time?

She knew who the other players were, but there are enough differences in the 2nd world where she probably couldn't predict everything.

Didn't A-1 do this with the Valkyria Chronicles anime?

It was cell shaded like the game, I don't remember it having any horrific filtering.
I do remember liking it a lot though.
You can't not tell us what that says, now.
"Gen Urobuchi has written the script for the new hidamari series! I hope you all watch it!"
"Ever since the day I met you, my heart has been like almond jelly", Yuno softly murmured as she crept toward me.
Oh, to be loved.

Medaka Box
Personally speaking I thought this was beyond boring, but I was prejudiced against it before I started watching it so I don't think that should put off anyone who's actually interested in watching it. The direction and animation are shounen by numbers; if this wasn't animated by what's-left-of-Gainax I wouldn't have given it a second glance, as I dislike Nisioisin's writing anyway.
What I really don't like is the overbearing background music that played throughout the vast majority of the first half of the episode. Sometimes I think this kind of thing almost works - .hack//Sign would have been terminally dull without blaring Kajiura music over the top of everything - but here it felt like the director had looked at the first episode of Utena, asked the composer to write something that sounds like the main theme for Ohtori Academy (I don't know the name of the piece of music. but you'd know what I meant if you watched Medaka Box), and just made that play on loop for about ten minutes.
Also, why does Medaka have to have impractically huge tits? I know, it's anime, but still, she should be on the floor with those things.

Time to sound the miri alert.
We have quite a few "soundtrack" shows this season. Lupin, Apollon, Tsuritama, E7AO, Hyouka, maybe even AKB0048!

You neglected to mention how ugly the art and character designs are, which, when combined with a horrible colour scheme, make the whole show look terrible.

Whos doing the music for E7 and Hyouka?

pretty cool. Anyone have an idea who was the key animator for the thug beatdown scene? looked great.

It's okay, spread the blame around! Personally I've found that it's actually the presence of one or two 'heavy' users who post items and consistently respond to other members posts which enables a thread to grow much faster than it would do otherwise. If it's just a small handful of people posting occasionally nothing much happens, but if someone is in the thread every day responding to those people and engaging then in a discussion then naturally you'll see a lot more activity. An active thread, by it's very nature, generates more activity and the whole effect snowballs.
Medaka is mai waifu and it's nice to have some colours, after the boring grey and brown corridors that have ruined this generation!

If only he'd got of his ass and make a god damn anime again then all would be right in the world.

I am all for more color, cuteness, violence.
You have the largest harem in all of animegaf.
Maybe they have no shadows because they're dead.

Well, that too. They went off-model about five minutes in which I thought was quite impressive, but I think we were supposed to ignore that because Medaka had taken her clothes off by then.
I've just had a quick flick through the first chapter of the manga and they've pretty much just taken the panels and put them on screen, so hopefully the fans of the series will get what they want out of it.

The Wings of Honneamise, Urusei Yatsura 2: Beautiful Dreamer and Revoloutionary Girl Utena: The Movie are three that spring to mind instantly although I am sure there are many more. I personally haven't watched many myself, but that's because most DVD's I have lack those kinds of special features.
In all my collection, there really aren't very many director commentaries or special features, even in the more expensive discs. It seems as though it is limited to movies/theatrical releases. I wish more studios would have these sorts of extras, but it is probably cost prohibitive on an already razor thin profit margin.

People sometimes forget that a sizeable chunk of discussion gets left out there, in IRC. It's kind of frightening to consider how big these threads would be without the presence of of IRC to water them down...
No, no he can not.
Well, he might have done, I must admit that I have not watched all of Imagawa's catalogue of shows. I'm sure there's some less than stellar works mixed up with the rest of his works, but he's made enough contributions to anime for one man.

thx bruh
It's definitely caused me to post much less in this thread.

Wow, I hadn't checked out Ann's page on Zetman until now. The list of key animators for the first episode is longer than my arm! How much did that episode cost, I wonder?
Wait, why I am linking the number of animators on an episode to it's overall cost, we all know animators are kept in cages and paid peanuts.
