Forgot the link:
(kikestarter) / projects / 137939582 / devils - legacy- the-animated - series ? ref = nav _ search
Anyway, discuss I guess.
>>122021432
>Imagine a cross between Berserk and Ghost In The Shell, but directed by Go Nagai, with a bit of Death Note added in for good measure.
These shitty kickstarters are in equal parts entertaining and terribly depressing.
>100 main characters
>9 worlds
>hundreds of pages of lore
>10 minutes OVA
Ayy, nice one, Toei.
They must really think Westerns are retarded, and they are, because people are actually giving money to this.
No wonder they have no plans on selling stuff here.
>anything related to toei in any way
no
OK, as someone who backed Kick-Heart, Little Witch Academia, AND Under the Dog, I say that this looks like dog shit.
>Pilot the mighty Archangel Michael and save New Hiroshima from destruction!
Only 149K? That's a reasonable goal I gue-
>in Euros
>only 8-10 minutes
Nice try scamstarter...
>>122021432
Advertisements are against the rules.
>>122021776
Toei make some great stuff occasionally, Niji-iro Hotaru was a good film, the Kyosuougiga ONAs were good, Precure can have great animation.
It's not by Toei staff, it's by a bunch of gaijin who WORKED on Toei shows, probably subcontract slaves.They aren't even giving out staff names.
you also forgot to mention it's being made for Rift VR, OP, and that's one of the funniest parts.
>>122022098
I will add however this looks like absolute shit.
>Toei
nope nope nope, and....nope.
>>122022088
>/a/ once again crying wolf about advertising and proving once again they have no idea what advertising really is
Oh boy, here we go...
Holy fucking christ this looks like a 15-year-olds DeviantArt project. The plot is completely unoriginal, a bunch of anime tropes slapped together without a shred of originality or, ya know, interesting hooks.
>It's a giant robot anime where some dude kidnaps your not-girlfriend and the MC pilots a GIANT ROBOT and fights the FOUR GENERALS OF HELL
I mean what the fuck. What the fuck.
>"Are you GOOD or EVIL today?"
>4k stretch goal
OH WOW THANKS FOR THE UPSCALE
>>122022098
>they made 3 decents shows in 400, don't worry guys, they got this
Hey, this actually looks pretty interesting. Very Go Nagai inspir...
>those character designs and animation
Fuck you Toei.
>>122022098
>occasionally
Exactly.
And that they need to resort to KS for a 10 min short doesn't seem like good news.
>>122022116
I correct, seems like worse news compared to UTD.
Are these niggas serious? I bet it's just a bunch of gaijins who used to work at Toei as mere low-paid employees. Everything looks like a retarded scam.
>YOUR SOUL WILL LIVE FOREVER
>OUR CONCEPT ART DEPARTMENT WILL TRANSFORM YOU IN A HERO OR IN A DEMON AND YOU WILL BE 1 OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS DURING ALL THE SERIES.
>What you wanna be ? A fearless templar lieutenant, a mighty demon general or maybe a Inn Owner with the name of your real one?
>Your fate is in your hands!
Holy shit I can't even
Holy shit. I just saw that A3 chibi michael door poster. Yes, *door* poster.
>Hey Mom, you sure you wanna enter?
Well at least they know their audience.
>>122022260
No wonder those characters look like american shit.
>Imagine a cross between Berserk and Ghost In The Shell, but directed by Go Nagai, with a bit of Death Note added in for good measure.
How the fuck does that even work? They're all way too different to mesh together.
>>122022340
It's "the japanese version of the walking dead" all over again, at least that made some sense.
>>122022226
I was specifically referring to in the last few years. If you look at their history though they have actually made tons of great shows. Their early films feature more high quality animation than most anime today when they were trying to be the Disney of Japan. You just sound ignorant saying that.
>>122021432
>Shit animation
>8-10 minute OAV
>More info in the kickstarter than what they would produce
>>122022260
It is definitely not anime this is /co/ shit.
>>122022340
The funniest part is that Go Nagai isn't even a director.
>>122022405
>early films feature more high quality animation than most anime today
Please clarify. I hope you aren't actually comparing films to TV series when you say 'most anime today'.
>Pilot the mighty Archangel Michael and save New Hiroshima from destruction!
>>122021432
>this thread again
Is this going to happen everytime someone throws up a half-assed project up?
>>122021570
That description and a 100 main characters in 10 minutes sounds terrible. Or hilarious.
>>122022302
The wording of that shit is barely even English. If they're actually American then they never passed 5th grade language arts.
>location: Amsterdam
Not anime, faggot.
>>122021570
I think its a good angle for looking at the pathetic and increasingly desperate state of the anime industry. Granted there's a lot of ugly angles to look at it from and few flattering ones these days.
Also is Kikestarter supposed to be some punny slam against Kickstarter for Jewing people out of money because holy shit if its unintentional.
>world where Purgatory has been cut off from Heaven and Hell. Billions of souls from through out the ages are now stuck in Purgatory with no way out. Cultures and technologies of different ages overlapped and a varied and incredible universe was created. Imagine if in the Middle Ages there were computers and coaches had been pulled by robot horses!
Whoa, so original, so it's like the world that looks pretty old but has new technology, and there is some magic included, never seen that before!
Why the fuck would anyone use Oculus Rift to watch Chinese cartoons?
>>122022694
These aren't Chinese though.
>>122022694
>THE FIRST ANIME FOR OCULUS
Nigga wut...
>>122022510
Anime in 1958 as produced by Toei. Probably more drawings in this scene than an entire episode of SMC.
>>122022221
Took the words right out of my mouth.
>I'm actually on the misty channel answering to a rude girl which really offended the great work Misty did, without asking for nothing!
>Thank you Jaedison!!! 5 Days without sleep here but i'm soo happy my friend!!! Thank you for the help!!!
Here is the confirmation that they aren't Japanese, but just retarded gaijins with the intellectual level of a tumblrina.
I wish all this trash disappeared from the world.
>phoenix angel studios
HAHAHAHA.
Literally deviant art makes an anime.
> Toei needing to use KS when they can just bargain for money from the Digimon franchise
Yeah, that doesn't sound good at all.
>>122022116
I haven't read the entire KS page, but I haven't see any mention of the staff at all, so yeah, seems like it.
Holy shit, just when I thought UTD drew the line for rock bottom.
>>122022652
You could have Tumblr take them off for appropriation of japanese culture
>>122021432
paying for shit anime.
You've gotta be shitting me. Little Witch Academia and Under the Dog at least look promising, but this just looks like the worst bits of shonen mashed together into a clusterfuck of awful.
Also I love how the ANN article admits that it's a paid advertisement.
>>122021432
>the only nip here is the music composer
Not animu faggot. Bring it to >>>/co/ or >>>/b/
>>122021432
Did they took that scene from SnK ?
>Imagine a cross between Berserk and Ghost In The Shell, but directed by Go Nagai, with a bit of Death Note added in for good measure, a story worthy of divine comedy
>Pilot the mighty Archangel Michael and save New Hiroshima from destruction!
>10 min OVA
>>122022961
>Under the Dog
>at least look promising
Nigga what?
>>122022012
>mighty Archangel Michael
more like gayed up titan.
>Berserk meets Ghost in the Shell meets Death Note directed by Go Nagai
This looks more like Go Nagai meets tumble.
This reads like when a kid gets really exited about something and keeps ranting on, without really thinking it through "Oh, and then there will be a giant robot, and hookers with guitars, and..."
>>122021432
Christ that sounds horrible. I'm sure you made this thread so you can say 4chan is bullying your project, OP.
Enjoy the sympathy bux.
>>122021432
Kickstarted series have NEVER offered anything interesting or good quality stuff. I wonder how the fuck can anyone even be curious enough to read what the project is even about.
>>122021432
>2000 pages of the story
>10 minute OVA
>>122021432
Why the hell does this make it sound like I'll get to do things.
>>122023107
>Kickstarted series have NEVER offered anything interesting or good quality stuff.
Kick-Heart was definitely good quality if you found it interesting or not though is personal taste. If LWA matches its predecessor in terms of animation then that will be another high quality project too.
>>122023169
It's not anime if anything its a /co/ videogame and this thread should be reported and deleted.
More information about the creator of this project :
>That's Amazing my friend! I grew up with the old school of anime ( 42 here ;) ) and that's why i decided to make a new kind of anime looking to the past with a deep story and great elements which have built the anime genere.

>can wait = can't wait , sry :D
>Gonna also post in FB tomorrow this campaign, cant today cause i just posted 3 posts :D
>WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
>@Gideon LOL :D
>Wish i had 8.000 more now to pledge and declare Victory :D lol!!!
>yup this guys are good, let me tell it i own a team of ex Toei Members :)
>>122022796
Ok, this looks absolutely adorable. Where can I download this?
Nuff said.
>>122023013
Oh come on. I'm not saying that UTD looks like it'll be revolutionary but at the very least it looks watchable. Besides, those CIA faggots are gone from the project.
>>122023225
>i own a team of ex Toei Members
So are they like his slaves?
>>122023234
bakabt like everything else?
>>122023302
>Metallic voice
>>122023225
The only way anyone can think like this is if they are ACTUALLY delusional. It's fucking baffling. The spitting image of >I have seen literally 20 animes.
>>122023076
>implying a giant robot and hookers with guitars doesn't sound fucking amazing
Also why do I get the feeling that that's exactly what we're gonna get from Trigger's next anime?
>>122023113
The grim reaper got your waifu
wat do?
I'm dying here.
>>122023077
OP here. Actually I think this project looks horrible. I just wanted to see your guys' reaction.
>>122023369
Because it is quite clearly going to be a purposefully retarded parody? It is being directed by the same guy who did Inferno Cop.
>>122023400
>>122022694
>notimersing yourself in the 2d world to love your waifu
>>122023400
Chuuni as fuck.
>>122023113
Thanks for the new reaction image Toei!
That fucking writing.
>Book of Darkness
>Portal of Despair
>ghost in the shell and berserk meets death note
>14 year old mecha nigro with a revenge filled heart finds a magical book
>if you write someones name in the book a 50 ft tall robot will fuck their shit
Eh, I'd watch it.
This looks so bad I kinda hope they do succeed so I can see the finish product. It sounds more entertaining than UtD at the very least.
>>122023400
>>122023400
>>122023512
This is some Naruto headband wearing fanfiction writer tier shit. I can't help but wonder if this is an elaborate hoax so people can laugh at the terrible taste of anime watchers.
>>122021432
NEVER go full Toei.
>>122023400
Oh, so they are making Glasslip.
>>122023518
That actually sounds better than the whole description they gave in the kikestarter page. If this was all were given I'd back the shit out of this.
>>122023317
WORLDSTAR
>>122023620
You tell me.
>>122023113
NTR?
>Toei
Looks like French shit.
>>122021432
Why is Guyver wearing Grendizer's head?
I wish Shin Mazinger Great-Hen had a KS instead.
>>122023782
Totally Spies was my first thought.
>>122023013
The saving anime bullshit aside, it does look good visually.
>>122023848
Totally Spies looks much better than this.
This looks like Wakfu except worse.
>>122023739
So they are also riping off Eva? They didn't mention that.
>>122023881
It was only CIA who was playing the "SAVE ANIME" card, and they're gone from the project anyway.
Some Kim Possible shit here.
>Backing anything that wasn't the Eve no Jikan blu-ray
>hidden passage to enchanted Agharti. Where you will
>>122023942
>the past is never past
Please stop! My sides can't take it anymore!
>>122021432
I really hope to reach the goal it looks like fucking garbage
>Under the Dog threads were constantly deleted under the guise of being accused of "advertising"
>This thread for a shitty french cartoon is still up
What the fuck?
>>122023987
>backing Kickstarters at all
>>122024040
Lemme get this straight...
You're saying that you want to back a shitty project, that you know is shit, and hope that it reaches its goal and gets made just so you can see how shitty it is?
>>122024076
I think the mods are too busy laughing their asses off at how bad this looks.
>>122024040
>http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2951994
The "campaign manager" is on damage control on the ANN forum.
>I will say this is definitely not the reception I expected so let me see if I can clear up some things.
>>122024076
This is so bad, it is impossible to advertise it.
>>122022796
That's hardly a fair comparison. We're talking about the present here. What's the point of bringing in shit they did back in 1958?
>>122024145
I actually want to see just how bad this can get.
>>122024076
Give them some time to discuss how shitty this is, /a/non.
Shit's deep, yo.
>>122024237
I was talking about present, the guy responded with "3 decents shows in 400" to which I pointed out they have made plenty of great shows in the past because there is no way he thinks Toei made 400 shows just in what would be classified as recent. I only used examples from 2010+ originally.
>>122024076
UTD threads only really got deleted when it got made every single day. When the project was first announced, the threads actually lasted till it naturally hit bump limit.
>Advertising Kickstarters
>News
Sasuga internet journalism
I've seen lots of kickstarter projects, both good and bad. This is easily the worst one I've ever seen.
>>122021432
>funding another kickstarted
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zYMD_W_r3Fg
>>122024023
The same mistake again.
>>122024367
Fair enough. He definitely exaggerated on things but the point remains that Toei, outside of a few exceptions, aren't good these days.
>>122024230
>You can call me Evangelist for now
How many chuuni in that studio?!
>>122024246
Well, I like your thinking! I might just go along with you!
>>122021432
jesus christ, i keep scrolling and the page never ends. all these shitty concepts described in detail but no actual staff listed
>>122024506
That's not chuuni you dumb fuck. Please educate yourself.
