I haven't watched Shigurui but I can safely assume that the manga is a lot more visually pleasing, the narrative story telling is also god tier in the manga. Yuru Yuri is consistently comfy and funny in the manga, I like the anime but I think the manga is better, it's all up to personal preference though.

I recently watched the Lupin III live-action movie and it was fucking terrible. I didn't offer anything to Lupin fans.
I realized that Ryuhei Kitamura is a terrible director, even though I was a fan in high school because of Versus.
>>124673303
It had amazing world building, tone, and themes with pretty good characters and pacing.
>>124673422

>>124670329
Have you ever thought to watch more anime to get rid of your shit taste Bear, I don't understand how you have lived for so long like this, I hope you realize your life is not infinite and you will die one day, it would be sad if you died with this 3x3 as your legacy.
>>124673303
Why Doujouji, I liked Kataku best personally but Nemuri-hime is also good, both had nice punchlines. I'd still pick Fusha no Sha, Tabi and maybe Kenju Giga over Doujouji. I liked Doujouji of course but it didn't strike me as particularly special, maybe I'm missing something?
Not him though.
>>124673303
>Why do you like the Madoka movie?
I feel like it's severly underrated. The movie's cinematography combined with Yuki Kajiura's soundtrack and symbolism that doesn't suffocate you, along with the balé themes (including Homura's balé outfit) makes it into one of my favorite anime experiences.
It's gotten a lot of flack due to it's controversial ending and some people thinking it's just milking the franchise, I however think it's the perfect ending to a great series.
It's almost like a theatric play.Doing my best to not sound pretentious here.
>>124675397
I at least thought Doujouji was darker/more complicated than Nemuri-hime, it stood out more to me when watching Kihachiro Kawamoto. Maybe I just like traditional Japanese stories more.
>>124675489
When I watched it, I just thought it shouldn't exist, even though I thought the art was technically beautiful.
Honestly, it didn't add anything to the Madoka series, if anything it detracted from the experience.
I don't give a shit about future renditions.
>>124675839
Different strokes and everything, I view anime the same way I view any other visual medium and because of that standpoint I'm able to appreciate the movie for what it is.
I thought I was just biased at first since I saw it at a screening in Japan but after a rewatch I realized that it had become one of my favorite anime movies.
>>124675839
Not them, but I just viewed Rebellion as fanservice of sorts, answering questions that fans had that weren't of any real importance but were nice to know and look at. The concept of nightmares was creepy in comparison to what we knew of the series, the Homura Mami fight was great, and the twist setting up future sequels was in line with how I interpreted Homura's character from the series.
The series certainly didn't need any sequels, but we really didn't get to see a lot of the characters and the premise was good enough that I would like to see more of it done well.
>>124673303
>What do you think about current anime?
eh its alright.
>>124676156
>>124676348
I guess my problem with Rebellion was the that I thought every animation choice was fucking retarded, mostly the stupid dancing sequence.
Before you get mad at me, I want to state that obviously Madoka is better than most anime and I really loved the original television series. When my friend and I watched the Rebellion, we both thought it was a waste of budget and that it should have just ended with the original. The action scene at the end was one of my main issues.

Yeah. I also have better taste than that in film.
>>124675839
I liked the setting of Doujouji better, but it just felt dull for a Kawamoto work, like there was something missing. I thought it needed narration at first, but Tabi feels complete enough without it so I'm not sure.
>>124679137
Not that guy but yeah I personally don't like directors obsessed with dark subjects. I don't think its very healthy. They can be in films, sure, but the entire basis? I don't groove with that. Just tons of rape and violence and torture...at a certain point you're not trying to enrichen the lives of the audience, you're just trying to depress them.

Fincher is also a total control freak who demands every shot be perfect. He threw Edward Norton down that flight of stairs 13 times and then used the first take. Fincher also filmed the opening scene of The Social Network 99 times to get the tension just right.

There is probably enough there to fill one just about. I bet Tiger Mask would be good and Star of the Giants. Then theres the Kitaro anime. There is so muh I want to watch there that it almost motivates me to learn Japanese.

I recommend starting with the films, but the original series is also really good.
>>124684124
I've watched all the films on the right but I've never gotten to watching a full series. I think I have seen all the episodes of the 60s TSHS does though. Sazae-san is difficult to watch. Apparently the mangaka insisted no merchandise was made of the show. All there are is fan recordings from television.
>>124684238
The Cyborg 009 film was alright probably not one of my favourites from the decade though.
>>124665858

There are some translated episodes here and there dotted about, some tv specials I have watched a couple. Probably worth it just to get a feel for the franchise.
>>124684800
This hurts my eyes.
So much hipster in this thread
>>124684781
gg did some 4 or 5 random episodes.
>>124684781
suika-chama please, I need to know why won't you guys give me the names of the anime ? Is that what you call being an elitist ? Not sharing anything ?
Fuck, i'm a musical maniac and I would never despise someone if they wanted to get into a genre or some artist. Jesus.
>>124684945
I've watched a bit of Urusei Yatsura and I still like Ranma a lot more.
>>124684697
it would have meant cropping out that pic and putting it in reverse image search. normally i would but i think it is simpler to ask in this situation
it looked like lain so i was interested
>>124684945
whats the story behind kill la kill being on there
Would you guys use a website that let you crop and manually center the images you placed in a 3x3, as well as add text labels on top of of each image?
Would you still use the site if it let you link multiple 3x3s to an account and then rate other people/get rated? As well as get suggestions for new content you might like or people you might want to chat with/play vidya with/etc.?I'm working on it
>>124685019
Kill la Kill is on pretty much all of his 3x3s.
>>124684858
1/1
>>124685056
I wouldn't want text labels and I crop my pictures myself.
It would be nice if you could make one for recommendation charts though because making up a template for them is a bitch. all the margins you have to set out to keep shit straight. Took me a while on that "essential japanese animation" chart.
>>124685056
1. Yes
2. Personally yes but that may be an unpopular opinion
>>124685056
Sure, why not? If well executed it could be a great idea.
I prefer doing my own 3x3 with PS to be honest, but I guess not everyone knows how to use it.
>>124685147
I'm reassured \o/
>>124685078
/1 with that 3x3 is actually pretty impressive.

I'm reminded of the /a/ wiki now.
>>124685419
4/5, gonna watch top wo nerae now (that art looks badass). what's top-center?
>>124685445
It's not about not knowing the shows, it's about posting minor stuff that targeted an extremely small specific viewerbase. But keep educating.
>>124685457
I mean something like this which took me way longer than it should have to setup a template for from scratch.
>>124685647

But I've seen 350 shows. I've definitely slowed down lately, but I've seen more than most people on /a/. In my (and most people's) eyes my 3x3 is pretty awesome.
>>124678748
Thanks bud. I actually have but I didn't think it was great. Didn't think it was bad either, but not the second coming of jesus like a lot of people claim.

>>124685877
>350 shows
>I've seen more than most people on /a/
If you rule out drifters (you know, the ones who are here for a month and will then head elsewhere), I think you're pretty much average.
>>124686148
Upper right is Gunbuster. What's top-center though?
>>124686260
>>124686083
All jokes aside about what you and I think about my taste, I think you're severely overestimating the amount of anime the average anon has seen. Maybe 4-5 years ago the average was around 300-400 shows seen, but now I'm fairly certain it's under 250.
>>124686260
Quantity hardly matters if all you're going to watch is whatever's on anichart anyway.
>>124686313
>Maybe 4-5 years ago the average was around 300-400 shows seen
kek
>>124686313
I believe you're overestimating the amount of anime you've seen as well, as when you say "350 shows" you're actually including more than just shows. Speaking of actual shows of any substantial length and not including movies, OVAs, and specials that aren't even two hours long, you're looking more at 250 than 350.
>>124686280
>>124686148
>>124685563
Upper right is Diebuster, Top-center is Black Lagoon.
>>124686338
Yeah, I don't think that was actually true. The groans about dwindling power levels are as old as the hills, and the number of posts saying that everyone on /a/ should have watched at least five hundred shows never quite made sense next to the power-level threads where people kept reporting a hundred-fifty or so.
>>124686481
You might want to use a more recognizable image next time.
>>124686366
Maybe he's putting effort into it
>this image matching captcha
I'm gonna kill myself
>>124666666
>>124686666
These threads sure have gone to hell lately.
>>124686666
then I would estimate the average anon has seen 100 anime before 2010, that's probably going a bit overboard too.
>>124685111
There suika I've done it.
This sums up my tastes. Keep in mind, i'm relatively new watching animes, it's my first time in /a/, also.
Now if you could please enlight me, haha.

>>124687173
I get your point, and I do think there are plenty of high power level people whose tastes are shit, but the guy who has seen 180 very good anime isn't going to have as much perspective as the person who's seen five hundred shows of more varied quality. Obviously, if the five hundred are all of a specific kind (either all one genre or all from the last four years or whatever), that's different, but I do think broad experience trumps "refined" limited exposure, even if the broader person hasn't seen as many 'classics' as the aesthete.
>>124687472
Center in the first is Wonder
Have you not actually seen Wonder? Your reputation is on the line here.
>>124687336
I hope no one delivers, you're just a /mu/ retard trying to discover ~obscure anime just to fit in into the patricians, I bet you don't even love the media.
>>124686775
Why the fuck do you have The King and The Mockingbird there?
>>124687537
I've actually never set foot in /mu/ and I find their tastes very classical, after seeing their "essentials".
Again, first time here, also getting used to 4chan (I got banned because of trying to open a recommendation thread) haha.
You're right I am trying to discover new stuff because that's what's it's all about, in the end.
sorry not to be into waifus wars so much though.
>>124687826
Hah because I love that movie. Look at the King, doesn't he look good there in the middle ? (I know it's not Japanese, gome)
>>124687918
Mangas I like (3x3 takes time goddamn): sanctuary
Eden: It's an endless world
Pluto
Lone Wolf and Cub
Homunculus
The 13 first Berserk
seizon life.
Different works from suehiro Maruo, Yoshihiro Tatsumi, Jiro Taniguchi and Inio Asano.
I enjoy being a literate casual. CBA to watch all the (by now) obscure movies that formed the foundation of modern anime. Hell, I couldn't even watch Gundam (the first)...

>>124666666
what the actual fuck
Go to bed Nathan
>>124688664
I don't even know what would constitute an anime patrician besides liking a bunch of extremely rare and obscure experimental animation, overlooked series from the 70s, and so on.
The bar for good anime is set so fucking low. There's so much god damn awful shit out there.
>>124688685
But I have to finish my physics homework
>>124688757
You say this as if the bar for everything wasn't set low.
Japanese animation just happens to be smaller in comparison to film, music or literature.
>>124688757
You just have to watch a bunch of decent to good old and more obscure shows and lie to yourself and others for a while that those shows are your favorites and eventually your taste will change and you'll be a true patrician.
>>124688815
>the only people who like anime are the ones who like otakushit
This is you right now
>>124688836
Your idea of "partician" is .
>>124688804
It is also aimed at a culturally illiterate, young population.
>>124688743
It is too hard to choose an overall 3x3, so I'll just give you my film 3x3. Like I said, it is really conservative
Millennium Actress
Perfect Blue
Spirited Away
GITS 1
End of Evangelion
Laputa
Whisper of the Heart
Ninja Scroll
Mind Game
>>124687826
King and the mockingbird is the film that inspired takahata to work in animation.
>>124681753
Its a 3x3 thread not a rec thread. If you'd watched the shows you'd know what they were. The point is to post your shit taste and then tell everyone else while theres is worse.
>>124689099
I'm just getting older (24), and I have different expectations. I have been crushing through Kurosawa, Kobayashi, Mizoguchi, Ozu, Naruse, Kitano, and a handful of other canonical Japanese directors over the past year. Before that, I was on a huge 2000s Korean binge.
Film is just a lot more satisfying for me than anime, for the most part. It doesn't hurt that there are probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 to 750~ or so good to masterpiece Japanese films made. Anime is obviously a subsection of this, and much smaller, but I am often disappointed and afraid to waste too much time.
For instance, no horror anime can possibly compare to Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure. Very few anime can touch the tragedy of Sansho the Bailiff or capture the sublime like Kitano often can.
Anime just does things differently, and I'm not as interested in those things as I used to be. It doesn't help that animators and art directors often overlook cinematography, blocking, and that camera movement is almost inherently limited by the tiny budgets they're forced to work with.
>>124689239
>while
*why
What if I've only seen 5 anime?
>>124689299
The sense I get is that most anime fans are between 14 and 20. The statistics probably support that, too. The average age here is probably around 20 or so, maybe less.
>>124689351
None taken. I have a fair amount of experience with the medium, but not a ton. It just isn't my main hobby. For the most part, people who immerse themselves in anime and only anime tend to have no context for what is actually good. You might be the exception, but that's the general idea I get. Like I said, I have very conservative tastes. My knowledge of 60s and 70s anime is extremely lacking, and I'm out of touch with most stuff produced in the digital era.
>>124689099
That 3x3 says a lot. Explains a lot. Makes me laugh a lot.
1/8
>>124689099
sorry to ask you again suika but... come on your 3x3 just look so pretty. I need to know hah.
>>124689400
How much Takahata have you seen? Among anime directors he's probably the one most inspired by the likes of Ozu, Mizoguchi, Naruse.
>>124689637
Actually I meant Space Dandy...
>>124689808

As for >>124681692 i only recognized Mouryou no Hako (bottom left)
>>124689581
Narrowing down 9 is even harder, even if I were to just list Japanese films. I'm not that decisive.
I won't spoon feed you too hard, but check out the obscure and not so obscure stuff from the following directors (in very rough chronological order that may be out of order as I forget some directors later on):
1. Ozu
2. Mizoguchi
3. Akira Kurosawa
4. Naruse
5. Kinoshita
6. Kon Ichikawa
7. Kobayashi
8. Masumura
9. Oshima
10. Imamura
11. Shinoda
12. Suzuki
13. Wakamatsu
14. Fukasaku
15. Terayama
16. Morita
17. Yoshige Yoshida
18. Takeshi Kitano
19. Kiyoshi Kurosawa
20. Sion Sono
21. Naomi Kawase
22. Koreeda
23. Masayuki Suo
24. Yoji Yamada
25. Nakashima
26. Miike
So yeah, I left a lot of New Wave directors out, more popular directors, and the masters of tomorrow, but this is a solid list.
>>124681692
>>124690040
>>124690129
>>124690160
Fantastic Children, Noein, Zettai Shounen, Hi no Tori, Simoun, Figure 17, Mouryou no Hako, Galaxy Express 999, and Nadja.
>>124690160
It's been a while since I've watched it. I also have a vague feeling I've seen top right, middle left and bottom middle so there's probably more stuff I should recognize on that 3x3.
>>124690252
Post more recognizable pics man
>>124690290
Half of those are from the OP or ED and the other half are notable moments from the first episode.
>>124690160
Okay, I'm feeling a bit generous. My favorite film from each director:
1. Floating Weeds
2. Sansho the Bailiff
3. Seven Samurai
4. Floating Clouds
5. Twenty-four Eyes
6. Fires on the Plain
7. Harakiri
8. Giants and Toys
9. In the Realm of the Senses
10. Vengeance Is Mine
11. Assassination
12. Tokyo Drifter (that theme though)
13. United Red Army
14. Graveyard of Honor
15. Grass Labyrinth
16. The Family Game
17. The Human Promise
18. Sonatine
19. Cure
20. Love Exposure
21. Suzaku
22. Maborosi
23. Shall We Dance?
24. Twilight Samurai
25. Confessions
26. Gozu
Good luck my friend.

Because a random background shot from the OP is recognizable, right?
>>124665858
Don't you see that the "story" is secondary to the "experience". Go watch Nickelodeon for "stories". LotGH is something more than that. It's an entire living, breathing world. And it poetically mirrors the horrors in our world.
The anime writes the story on centuries of history. Conquest, technology, expansion, death... It's all there.
LotGH's canvas is far too large for small men to behold, I suppose.
My words are failing to sway you? We're in disagreement over art... Which is roughly analogous to dancing about architecture.
LotGH is an aesthetic experience. I can't tap into your nervous system and make you see what I see, but I can try to explain the soaring heights LotGH sent the show going public to.
Citing sources is a pedantic exercise. And besides, this is a forum for those to kick back and appreciate great art: a bit like a gentleman's club in centuries past. Here we chomp our cigars and wax poetic about the great works and the unanswerable questions.
I must say that you've (the non-believers) made a pariah of yourself at this club. What is instantly evident to us (the mastery of Tanaka's LotGH) isn't something you grasp. It's an exercise on futility to educate on the whys and wherefores of cinema. Suffice it to say you have proven yourself a dunce among gentlemen. I consider my point carried and LotGH again redeemed.
>>124690391
That may sound like a hominem as populum, but so is telling a schizophrenic man he isn't really seeing ghosts. When the entire community of learned anime connoisseurs clearly sees a work of genius, it's an act of insane vanity to attack it.
LotGH is simply beyond you, those in disagreement. I wish I could help you, but I fear there's no fixing stupid.
Dancing atop this fathomless ocean of meaning is Tanaka's story. It revels in all that lies beneath, but only suggests... Only hints. He leaves it to you to draw the myriad connections he's put in the anime.
But this requires, you see, some understanding of history, science, imperialism, philosophy, theology, astronomy, and anthropology.
Legend of the Galactic Heroes is simply too grand a creation for some to come to terms with. Maybe one day you'll grow up enough to "get" it. I've seen it about 15 times and I'm still learning.
LotGH grounds its storytelling in solid plotting instead of messianic symbolism: which is actually harder to pull off and requires more craftsmanship but doesn't impress the pretentious teenagers who think Eva is Art.
'Democracy vs autocracy. Legitimacy of government. Nature of nations. Why fight for the fatherland when you can fight out of foppery and whim?' LotGH begs these questions, among others. He expressed a refreshing taste of philosophy that delved into epistemology and ontology, along with a thirst for the truth which I related with to the nth degree.
There's pretty much unanimous consensus among scholars that Legend of the Galactic Heroes is an eastern masterpiece... One of the very few that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Citizen Kane and Lawrence of Arabia.
>>124690349
>random background shot from the OP
Fantastic Children is obvious, Zettai Shounen's takes up 6 seconds of the OP, and Mouryou no Hako and Nadja both pretty much have those visuals for most of the ED, they're not exactly obscure and random.

I haven't seen any of them except Mouryou no Hako, but I could recognize 4-5 more if you were kind enough to post something like the key visual or an actually characteristic shot.
