Which Studio is better?
Trigger are hot the new studio on the block who have made Inferno Cop and the now legendary Kill la Kill. Their list of anime might be small, but they carry the essence of GAINAX over the last 15 years with guys like Hiroyuki Imaishi and Masahiko Ohtsuka, who all worked on anime like Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, FLCL, Panty & Stocking etc.
As for SHAFT, they've been around for a while, but they've shot to prominence over the last 10 years. They're primarily known for the universally popular Monogatari Series and Puella Magi Madoka Magica, but were also successful with older hits like Natsu no Arashi, Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei and Hidamari Sketch.
>>122945186
SHAFT made Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.
Therefore SHAFT > Trigger
>>122945242
/thread
>>122945186
This thread is dumb
>KLK
>legendary
Come on, it's easily forgettable.
Also, stop toting inferno cop as a great anime, it was a cheap anime made for cheap laughs, nothing more.
Shaft = anime as a product
Trigger = anime as an artform
A-team SHAFT > TRIGGER > B-team SHAFT.
It's hard to actually compare them yet. Trigger has like three anime so far
>>122945485
Feel free to count TTGL, FLCL, RE:Cutie Honey and Panty & Stocking into Trigger.
Basically the same guys.
>>122945527
No because that's Gainax.
That isn't Trigger, What a fucking dumb thread.
>>122945408
>Come on, it's easily forgettable.
The fun fact is that haters never forget to remarkable that is forgettable. Kind of ironic.
>>122945527
>Feel free to count TTGL, FLCL, RE:Cutie Honey and Panty & Stocking into Trigger.
No, that's riding in Gainax's cottails, budget and even staff from there.
>>122945588
Trigger carry the essence of GAINAX during those years.
I suggest you go to sleep.
>>122945527
Don't be stupid.
Those are all Gainax.
SHAFT made Monogatari
Trigger made KLK
So Trigger > SHAFT
>>122945242
>Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Inferior to the manga.
>>122945607
This isn't necessarily "which studio has the better shows".
That's an important factor, but it's also the staff they're comprised of. Trigger was formed by the guys who did those Gainax Anime, and therefore, those should factor in to a certain extent.
>>122945626
>Trigger carry the essence of GAINAX during those years.
No.
Trigger only carry a portion of the essence of Gainax. Studio Khara being the others carrying other portion. And current Gainax has the lefovers.

>>122945702
OP, I understand what you say, but you are still essentially comparing both Shaft and Trigger as studios.
Trigger has their own distinct style from Gainax now.
Kill la Kill it's not an anime Studio Gainax would have done. The nearest thing would be TTGL, and still, Imaishi was being monitored and whiped by his superiors to not go too crazy. Also, the budget.
Hideaki Anno was also part in Re:Cutey Honey and KareKano where Imaishi was doing his forte: animation. But those areall Gainax, not Trigger.
>>122945186
They are both shitty Studios that need to die for anime's future .
not a trigger fag but Shaft is pretentious garbage

>>122945751
>buttmad shaft stroker detected
Based Kyoani have improved on nearly every source material they have adapted. That's what actual good studios do.
Trigger, KLK is one of the best animes in the history.
Meanwhile, Shaft makes moeshit like madoka, monogatari, Hidamari and Szs...
>>122945771
>So what? Shaft now also isn't the same Shaft from 10 years ago.
As in "Pre-Shimbo Shaft" "Shimbo Shaft" and "Post-Shimbo Shaft"? Sure, but they were still Shaft.
Trigger is still relatively a brand new studio that need to make more brands on their own.
>>122946162
And what do you know, it's still shit.

>>122945186
I almost said SHAFT, but the only thing they have going for them is Aoki Ume and whatever she's involved with. They handle adaptations of certain works okay for the most part, but I'd have trouble giving anything I loved willingly to them. Almost every one of their works feel the same thanks to them using the same tired ass angles for the past forever.
Trigger has Inferno Cop and Little Witch Academia, and while Kill la Kill was a huge disappointment for me, I was certainly more entertained by it than most of what SHAFT puts out. Plus, they actually animate something other than a neck tilt every now and then.Hidamari Sketch is the greatest SOL of all time

KLK is overrated as fuck. Little Witch Academia was a masterpiece so I'll give that one to Trigger. Everything else is just there.
Overall, Shaft just has more on the table. It's an unfair comparison. You're comparing what Trigger MIGHT become as opposed to what SHAFT is and has.

all that smooth animation doesn't magically turns it into a highly respectable piece of artwork. The damn thing is so fucking repetitive in term of plot and animation itself, the only innovative was the "clothing" theme. What in the actual fuck, anon.

Most anon see fast paced action and titilating fanservice and are too shallow to notice the depth that lurks underneath.
Kill la Kill is a masterpiece. Shaft has never made a respectable piece of art. Madoka was a nice attempt, but its characters were too weak to carry it, and the art was pretentious. The symbolism was shallow and was never referenced in the structure of the narrative.

Trigger has animators at the apex of technique ever pioneered in the medium, and the writer for Kill la Kill is a seasoned playwright and brilliant poet.
SHAFT and Trigger are not comparable. SHAFT makes products to be sold, Trigger creates high art they love with the freedom they gained from leaving Gainax.

It's a character driven drama like most anime. The focus is on the character's themselves, their growth, and their interactions.
>>122953579
You don't see Disney or Pixar fawning over the opportunity to meet SHAFT animators. This is because they're not notable.
The staff on Trigger are the best in animation history. Imaishi, Sushio, Yoshinari, Amemiya, Hori and Ootsuka.
The only other studio within SPITTING distance of Trigger is Khara. Not Ghibli. Khara.
>>122953734
Too bad the characters are fucking awful
>>122953494
Shaft is not smart. Granted Trigger has quality animators but they just do not have the budget to go create another popular pop-culture shit in anime industry because of their tight budget and funding, until they went cheapskate and keep reusing the same animated frames over and over again in a series they produced.
Also, Shaft's recent anime are mostly made to promote books and boost the sales (except Madoka of course). The sequels were just to ride the popularity until original source materials ended.
>>122953789
>budget
There you go again. There were gorgeous scenes in Saki animated by a single guy, and the studio was almost dying back then. Money doesn't excuse bad animation.
>>122953734
>character growth
>Bakemonogatari
Honestly though, I didn't see much growth in the characters. The waifus all overcome their "dillemas", but Araragi is still pretty much a self-insert a Marty Stu, and I don't think he's ever gone though any development arc at all.
Plus perhaps the only remotely interesting character LEAVES. Fuck Bakemonogatari.
The drama is also very dragging. 3 episodes to complete one character? What the hell.
>>122953742
having best animators and best screenwriter doesn't guarantee quality animated series or film overall. Look at Dennou Coil, the animation was superb but that cliche ending made it a total garbage.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlPxDmG4VHE
I love Shaft's "unique" art style/direction.
>>122953937
Dennou Coil has a nice visual style but is otherwise completely unmemorable, except for a couple parts like virtual beard and completely gratuitous spanking scene with closeup of little boy's butt
>>122953862
This has to be bait. If you really can't see the character growth then you must be mentally retarded. And 3 episodes to complete a character arc is pretty standard for harems.
>>122953823
It does when some cleanup artists fucked up with the layouts and in betweens. They need to use resource, for example money, to fund electricity usage and hardware for the department.
>>122953343
You're taking like the monogatari series is deep and symbolic, I've got news for you sonit's not
>>122953823
Not a single cut in Saki is on a level with what you see in Kill la Kill. Trigger is a master of their art.
Also the best cut in Evangelion was done by Imaishi.
>>122953937
Finally a good response rather than the typical dicksucking. I agree, but I feel like your point doesn't apply to Kill la Kill, as it's script was one of the more brilliant and inventive works in anime history.
Dennou Coil did disappoint me, but I can't say I was expecting anything from the story. It was just a really nice premise that allowed the world to come to life in an interesting way. One of my favorite anime, but not because of its writing.

Hey bud I too can throw names here and there while spouting bullshit to people that know better but that could make look retarded, why would I want to look like one?
>>122953862
I don't know, anon. I can totally see the character growth whatsoever. If you are to rebut my point you will have to need to read the books to get my point entirely because you seem too retarded to swallow a simple story with dragged conversations.
>>122953734
People give Bakemonogatari too much credit. In fact, it's pretty much SHAFTs cash cow at this point.
SHAFT were far better as in-betweeners for various other productions and when they made their own, non-adopted content (Soredemo notwithstanding). They seem to suffer from QUALITY most of the time though with the ridiculous BluRay reedits, and its not even small things but glaringly big mistakes, and the occasional weird choice of edits.
Trigger on the other hand is still brand spanking new. They made Little Witch Academia, KlK, and some in-between animation here and there plus some adaptations I don't even care about. Too me they are waaaay too fresh to be compared to SHAFT, not to mention I think their time is quite smaller than SHAFTs. If they want to become GAINAX 2.0 YOU CAN (NOT) ANIMATE then they need to get that guy Akia who left Gainax during the Gurren Lagaan 4th episode scandal.
So yeah, Mangoes and Oranges, with a very unripe orange at that.
>>122954067
>Not a single cut in Saki is on a level with what you see in Kill la Kill. Trigger is a master of their art.
I never implied that. I'm just criticizing how /a/ loves pulling out the "budget" card but the guy made a semi-reasonable explanation.
>>122954076
>that could make look retarded, why would I want to look like one?
Two reasons
One: Because you're a fucking coward and not even anonymity could hide the shame of your public humiliation
Two: You actually have no clue what you're talking about, so if you did anything but reload the thread and shitpost, you'd have to qualify your opinions and wouldn't be able to.
>>122954034
Again, where in the actual fuck I mentioned Monogatari in that post you quoted, faggot?
Also, I have read most of the books and I realized it isn't that deep nor symbolic, but to compare it to klk, that is just way beyond retarded. Nisio got a rep in deep mindfuck stories anyway.
>>122954067
>Dennou Coil did disappoint me
>Kill la Kill script was one of the more brilliant and inventive works
KEK DUBS LEL XD FEELS SADFROG > SAUCE /POL/ REDDIT TUMBRL PENGUIN OF DOOM DEESU
>>122954265
Oh yeah. That's easily one of the trashiest talking points /a/ has. Limited animation in the hands of real talent doesn't cost a lot of money. Basic, high framerate animation like hair blowing in the wind is more expensive.
>>122954067
>Also the best cut in Evangelion was done by Imaishi.
>Kill la Kill, as it's script was one of the more brilliant and inventive works in anime history.
>>122954067
This looks better than most scenes in KlK.
>>122954194
>read the books
Proof that the anime is a failure as a medium. Or that SHAFT is really bad at adapting Noissin's work.
Araragi barely grows to amount to anything but a self-insert stud. He has never experienced loss or hardship. He gets away scott-free by virtue of plot armor or deus ex powers i.e. vampirism. But most of all, he's just unrelatable.
>>122954309
>reload the thread and shitpost
>>122954026
Like I mentioned, the character arc is for the waifus, but Araragi is shit as a character.
Even Shichika was a better character than he was.
>>122954383
You are comparing two shows with completely different art style.
You can't have this level of detail with KlK because of its cartoonish style.
>>122954381
There has never been a character drama with more comprehensive use of metaphor, symbolism, wordplay, and allusion than Kill la Kill.
To even find something on its level, you'd have to go to surreal anime film and OVA.
>>122954383
Takeshi Honda shits on that cut.
>>122954385
Shaft did decent adaptations for most of the books. They only fucked up a certain bits in Kabuki and Oni but that is not the point.
You can't look past the character's growth because you are simply that mentally unaware of it while watching the show, anon.
>>122954026
I don't really care about the waifus. At all.
Oshino Meme was the only intruiging character in that show.
>>122954322
>>122954381
>they think it's bait when it's obviously just satire
This is the funniest thread I've read in a long itme
>>122954499
So you pick one of the best guys in the whole industry as a comparison, good job.
>>122954499
>>There has never been a character drama with more comprehensive use of metaphor, symbolism, wordplay, and allusion than Kill la Kill.
What is infinite Stratos
>>122954474
>You can't have this level of detail
The transformation scenes blow that cut out of the water. Both in detail, anticipation, timing, weight. Everything.
>You can't look past the character's growth because you are simply that mentally unaware of it while watching the show, anon.
Really now? "Meantally unaware"? It's like you're implying it wasdeep.
Another quality thread by Triggerniggers.
Bakemonogatari > Little Witch Academia
So Shaft.
>>122954310
The conversation was about monogatari and klk, first anon saying klk was deepwich is also bullshitand then you defending monogatari
you didn't said it, but the vibe you got fron that message is that monogatari is deep, which, as you too said, is not
>>122954616
It isn't deep you dumbfuck.
You cannot even comprehend my whole post and keep trying to tell monogatari has no objective content in it. Bravo, faggot.
>>122954617
At this point I'm sure theres trolling for both sides, the only guy that seems somewhat serious is >>122954309, retarded but serious
>>122945186
I salute you OP, you managed to get a bunch of retards to discuss like if they know something
The only truly deep anime is Tenshi no Tamago
>>122945476
This
>>122954654
It's not bullshit. Kill la Kill has layers of depth /a/ won't even explore because they're too childish to understand it.
Between philosophy, allusion, metaphor, symbolism, subtle characterization, and leitmotif, it stands heads and shoulders above any other television anime ever created. Even Gurren-Lagann.
Inferno Cop > Madoka
So Trigger.
>>122954722
ME!ME!ME! > klk
Checkmate

>>122954806

So you concede defeat?
>>122954600
>The transformation scenes blow that cut out of the water. Both in detail, anticipation, timing, weight. Everything.
Go ahead and explain me what makes it good, tell me the techniques employed, and why are they executed well. It shouldn't be hard for someone who has at least a half-assed animation knowledge. You're using a bunch of fancy words anyway, might as well expand on them.
Trigger has done one good show and a decent OVA, which was then followed by two shitty TV anime
Shaft has more shitty shows than good ones, but Shinbo is at least a good director.
Anything Monogatari-related past Bake isshit.
>>122945186
Sex and Violence with Machspeed looks like shit, and is difficult for me to watch. I could stare at SZS for eternity.
KLK was over hyped and fell flat with its ADD quality, while the constant but simplified style of WIDE matches the show well.
Shaft>Trigger
>>122954796
At this point, I will just label you as retarded blind dumbfuck trigger sheep.
I have totally lost words for your klk worshipping faggotry.
>>122954863
Yes good sir
SHAFT has Oishii!
So SHAFT.
>>122945186
how can you make this thread and not hate yourself
>>122954900
But Owari is good anon. Real good.
Going purely by track record I am going to go with SHAFT mainly because they have more to show.
The staff at Trigger obviously has tons of experience but if we're going purely by shows I will give it to SHAFT.
I think Kill la Kill was pretty good. It wasn't anything ambitious or have anything really worthy of any actual in depth discussion. However I think it had a lovable albeit 2 dimensional cast of characters that were very energetic and chewed up the scene a lot which managed to make every episode enjoyable just to see what ridiculousness the characters would do next even if the actual episode is "filler".
Serious moments weren't anything to write home about. Most were pretty forgettable since the characters aren't really deep in any sort of way. Lots of dropped plot points too make the actual story structure come off as really messy. The humor is also very hit and miss for me with some things being too obnoxious and other bits being just obnoxious enough but I think the cartoony animation made it easier to swallow regardless.
Overall, for the studios first original work I think it was pretty good. Could be vastly improved but overall it left me satisfied.
Speaking of SHAFT. What original works do they have again? I would comment on them but I just realized most of the SHAFT I have seen has been adaptions.
>>122954776
I suggest you watch Night on the Galactic Railroad.
>>122954984
Meguca?
>>122954984
Madoka is the only one.
>>122954947

>It wasn't anything ambitious or have anything really worthy of any actual in depth discussion.
Wrong. See >>122954796
>>122954900
I know a person has great taste when he says this.
Bake was the best shit ever when it was released, how the fuck did it turn into above average generic haremshit?
>>122954385
here is something I don't get:
I see more characters getting hate for having a built-in reason for being strong enough to handle what their show throws at them, than those who go through series' of highly improbale conveniently timed powerups.
>>122954385
Araragi is such a weird creep, I'd have an easier time self-inserting as Oshio
>>122954873
Shinbo is terrible. He's like what Seijun Suzuki would be if he had no talent and made otakushit anime for some reason
>>122955125
That's a bunch of nouns and adjectives that could be applied to any "deep" anime and no one would ever notice the difference. If you want to be taken seriously write a fucking post explaining your criticism. Ah, well, you're just playing around with this board anyway. Aren't you bored already?
>>122955208
Bored? I just came here, and I find what that guy wrote troughfully amusing. I plan to keep linking it so that others may enjoy his high-class criticism as well
>>122954867
You want me to explain the subtle techniques that make Takeshi Honda a great animator using his Kill la Kill cut... You actually asked me this question? What a fucking retard.
http://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/6930/animated-fabric-hair-henshin-kill_la_kill-takeshi_
Squash and stretch when the titties jiggle, when the straps lock her tits down, the subtle movements of her ass when the thong is pulled tight, the bending of Senketsu's fabric as it's roped around Ryuuko.
The anticipation when monster Senketsu is ready to bite down on her, when his eyes are building energy to burst forth from her chest, or when Ryuuko is curled up ready to explode into her final pose.
the staging when she takes that pose is magnificent. Every action is pose to pose, and each movement flows into the next, overlapping the next to create a dynamic movement that you can't take your eyes off.
The movement is done is graceful arcs, and is exaggerated beatifully to create imaginative effects only possible in animation, such as the tight camera spin. Ryuuko's body behaves realistically, and every action she takes has a follow through. Like when she aggressively poses, she doesn't simply freeze, but her body reacts and settles after her energy is expended, and finally, every piece of it looks like a solid object in space
GET. FUCKED.
>>122955198
Yeah no.
Shinbou makes garbage like Nisekoi, Mekakucity, and Denpa Onno at least watchable while good stuff like SZS, Hidamari, and Arakawa amazing.
Shinbou literally improves anime
>>122954858
b-but Gurren Lagaan was both made by TRIGGER AND SHAFT!
>>122955307
>good stuff like SZS, Hidamari, and Arakawa amazing.
Those are all mediocre-bad
>>122955144
You know Bakemonogatari would've been 10x better if it was Oshino Meme who was the protagonist instead of Araragi.
>>122955361
Those are all one of the best shows anime has to offer
>>122955307
>mekakucity
>watchable
I agree with the rest though
>>122955298

>>122955321
Ever noticed how segment with Nia have beautiful lips, wonderful backside shots, and even Nia's anti-Spiral messanger form looks something out of SHAFTs other shows. She even does the headtilt.
Those segments were in-betweened by SHAFT.
>>122955298
>GET. FUCKED.
I never doubted your knowledge in animation, silly anon.
>sakuga.yshi.org
As expected. I'm pretty sure the sakuga crew doesn't share the same enthusiasm over KlK's animation like you, since it had a decay later on.
>>122955420
He's talking about the animation, not the "deep" parts of the show, though. There are plenty of great shows when it comes to animation which have a stupid or simple story. Nichijou has plenty of cool cuts, for example.
Also holy fuck what the fuck is wrong with reCAPTCHA today? I can barely read the majority of them.
>>122955125
That didn't really explain anything.
If you feel KLK does indeed have subtletys to it then by all means write about it, it wouldn't be the first time I failed to see things in depth.
I suppose the idea of clothing and human relationships could be a parallel to something perhaps? Man I don't know.
