Spring 2010 Anime

[『五角场 之 無名氏』 No.]

very few /jp/ related shows this season

Very glad to see Angel Beats finally out, but it's produced by PA Works, not KyoAni.
DC Ext is also a welcome sight, here's hoping it won't suck as much as the DC2 anime and actually do the series justice
Also, Black Rock Shooter OVA.

[Anonymous No.]

DC ext will be Sakura's route from Da Capo 2 animated.
Will probably be an anime since Sakura's route is pretty short.

[Anonymous No.]

A new chart? I bet the nest season will also be a piece of-
>Iron Man?
fucking aweso-
>K-on season 2
-shit with no decent shows.

[Anonymous No.]

Hmm, Angel Beats could have potential. Kiss x Sis is fucking ridiculous in regards to its content so it'll probably be amusing to watch. Nothing else really catches my eye, maybe the yuri fanservice in Koihime.

Sadly K-ON will be the flavour of the season despite it being generic moe garbage.

[IN elite !EiENTeirl2 No.]

Unicorn and everything else I will just let the dust settle on before I choose or just watch everything's first episode.

[Anonymous No.]

Back Rock Shooter, Umi Monogatari Special and K-ON S2. I'm not watching that much anime anymore, anyways.

[Anonymous No.]

But Angel Beats is not based on a visual novel.

Moe isn't a genre, and it's a slice of life show like any other one that has cute girls, depicting daily activities and whatnot. Stop hating.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4342634
Of course moe isn't a genre.
That show is shit because it is marketed as a generic moe garbage without any moe characters in it.
That is where they fail just like RUCKY SHIT.

What happened to show like CCS, Nanoha, Azumanga, RM and etc. Bring me show with the REAL DEAL MOE please and not all this fake "ooohh i am so moe~~ :3"

Problem isn't with moe, it's because hows like Lucky Star or whatever are pandering to the moe crowd without having much else to bring to the table.
I'm also having problems with "random shows with a new tsundere". It's only comiket fodder, and that's all.

I can't stand watching the same shit anymore. I thought my nutbladder was broken, but I still enjoy Hidamari Sketch, so I think it's only a quality problem.

[IN elite !EiENTeirl2 No.]

>>4342715
>Hidamari Sketch
That is forgiven, there is a difference between a K-ON and a Sketchbook type anime.
Slice of life isn't bad it is the blatant pandering.
>>4342692
I dislike Lucky Star on the basis that it made a good portion of /a/ hidden for me back when and perpetuates the idea hat Haruhi didn't ruin anime.

[Anonymous No.]

I will be watching Kiss x Sis and Mayoi Neko Overrun

[Anonymous No.]

>>4342715
Slice of life shows normally don't have anything to bring to the table...it's part of their nature. Has Minami-ke's disclaimer taught you nothing, anon? LS is more of an otaku series than a moe show. It can easily appeal to the moe crowd though with their designs and characterization. And pandering in general != bad

>>4342734
>I dislike Lucky Star on the basis that it made a good portion of /a/ hidden for me back when and perpetuates the idea hat Haruhi didn't ruin anime.

That's a shame... And terrible memories of GL vs LS, too? And am I comprehending this right? You thought Haruhi ruined anime back then? What...

Major is probably the only thing I'll follow.

WIth kiriminzoo and hanamaru kindergarden, it now is.

Besides, there's having a character that is moe, and there's making a show entirely made of "moe" characters.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4342734
Haruhi didn't ruin anything. I think Haruhi is pretty good.
It only showed how much retarded can anime fans get.

I can't really approve of KyoAni's cynicism though (pandering to brainless otaku with Lucky Star and K-on in order to make huge money, and then trolling them with Endless Eight).

>Minami-ke
I have no problem with Minami-ke because they do not make you feel as if they made the TRAITS on purpose.

In RUCKY SHIT
-KONATA "OH HAI I AM AN OTAKU, AM I MOE ENOUGH FOR YOU?"
-KAGAMI "OH HAI I AM SO TSUN TSUN DERE DERE, AM I MOE ENOUGH FOR YOU?"
-HIIRAGI "OH HAI I AM SO DITZY, AM I MOE ENOUGH FOR YOU?"
-MIYUKI "I AM CLUMSY, WEAR GLASSES AND HAS BIG TITS, AM I MOE ENOUGH FOR YOU?"

Not only that they keep trying to shove all this traits at every opportunity and also viral market Haroohee.

Not agreeing at all. There's a lot of things that can make a slice of life serie compelling. Character developpement, setting, direction, emphasis on comedy or on "relaxation"...
By saying a slice of life anime can't bring something new, you're only implying they're all the same shit. In that case we'd watch the same serie over and over.
>>4342798 I never said I disliked it but the faggotry among all anime fans
Well, now you're making sense.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4342795
Don't know if I can take your post seriously when you write with mockery, anon... LS is a comedy/referencing SoL series that revolved around an otaku. Traits that each character exhibited are done on purpose, and are pointed out by Konata. The Lucky Channel exists for a reason, too.

Yes, the viral market was terrible. It can't be helped with KyoAni though.

I didn't mean it like that at all. SoL series do contribute and tend to accomplish what it sets out to do, and what they are meant for within their genre. Outside of it though...not so much since SoL don't have an overarching plot, or an epic story/plot/development to it.

...Yeah, and how is this important? Not seeing your point.
I can't have high expectations from a slice of life anime because the storyline won't grow to the Legend of Galactic Heroes scale?

Did no one notice the IRONMAN adaptation?

I find this amusing as well as worrying, I don't want to think that Japan is going the way of our hollywood.

Doesn't have to be that grand of a scale. It's perfectly fine to expect whatever the SoL series is supposed to deliver, but seeking something else that isn't supposed to be in a SoL isn't wise at all. SoL is ordinary, mundane, easy going, sometimes boring, examination of life in general, etc.

You have low expectation.
Do you consider Honey and Clover slice of life?
What about Aria?
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou?
Azumanga?
School Rumble?
Chii Sweet Home?

You are just accepting their lack of quality with "All slice of life has no story or development, stop hating."
Can't help you if you are so easily please with "kawaii desu characters".

[Anonymous No.]

"Slice of Life" is the third most-used word to describe genre by people who know nothing about anime, after "moe" and "shounen".

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343007
Not low, just a relatively realistic one. And H&C? I haven't seen it all, but no, it isn't one. Aria? Yes, and it's beautiful, relaxing, and sometimes boring.. But Aria sets out and accomplishes what it's designed to do and satisfies just that. Azumanga? Of course. School Rumble? No. Not even.

You're getting the wrong impression, I don't dislike SoL. And what are you saying? I don't think they lack quality because of their design, it's just that their genre won't allow them to expand outside of its genre. I can expect an adventure or action series to have SoL episodes or make use of the genre to help flesh out characters or give them developments, but I can't do that for SoL, expecting action out of nowhere or anything. And what are you getting at? I enjoy cute/moe/whatever characters as much as I do with interesting and complex ones.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343045
All the show that I named are the SOL that you loved so much with the added story/plot/development that the rucky shit and k-on you love so much lack.
Saying how all SOL have no story/plot/development are just you being easily please.
Hell even Fumoffu can be classified as a slice of life.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343065
School Rumble and H&C aren't SoL.

>Fumoffu can be classified as a slice of life
What. No, it can't. People stretching the term SoL so much nowadays. It's as bad as calling Toradora a SoL series instead of a comedy/romance drama with a couple of SoL episodes. And please, ad hominem attacks tickles, and only show other your biasness.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343089
others, even.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343045
But dramatic elements can be added in slice of life. Action is only one process among others. Hell, in Marimite, you can have tension because of a lost umbrella.
And even without much dramatic elements, you can create depth using setting (what if we lived with androids...), character relationship (how can someone can cope with its homosexuality...), social or sociological comment (why can't people do shit for each others more often...), and many other things.

You're just being close minded.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343089
Not shopped but it is how other people classify them. Go click the tag if you dont believe.

Also how is Fumoffu or School Rumble different form K-On?

Fumoffu
-story about a bodyguard doing his daily activies at school

School Rumble
-Class 2C daily antics

K-On
-Daily antics about 4girls making a band and aiming for Budokan

So what make K-On so special that they get their own genre "Slice of Life" classification?

Seems like all the anime/manga database website classify them as SoL.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4343118
A lot of things can happen inside the slice of life genre, many things. Drama, consequences, a moral message through a lesson, trial and error, etc. It just comes down to presentation and execution. But even with all that, they're still confined in the slice of life genre because breaking its genre won't make it a slice of life anymore. I don't see how being opened-minded or not is relevant. I actually do think of myself as very opened-minded, anyways.

>>4343145
>ANN
Not always accurate since it's edited... I haven't seen all of H&C, but so far, it doesn't have the formula like that of Ichigo Mashimaro, LS, K-ON, Hyakko, Miname-ke and so on. Fumoffo is entirely a comedy, but the overarching plot is present since it carries over from the main story, that is, protect Chidori. And Sousuke carries out his duty well. That, and, it's set up as a school life setting with loads of slapstick comedy and typical Sousuke situations.

School Rumble is much just like Fumoffu, only, it has some slice of life in it, much like Toradora or any other series with some light slice of life. That doesn't mean the entire series is considered one, it's just a small part of its composite genre pool.

Slice of life isn't a special genre or anything. And K-ON is nothing special. For that matter, execution is what makes it entirely a slice of life series. The setting and premise is set (school, and band), and what is usually shown is just cuts and pieces of the girls' life and mundane activities, sometimes examined on purpose to mimic real life. It's much like Aria that way.
