>Original anime written by Ichiro Okouchi (Code Geass creator) and will be directed by Tetsuro Araki (Death Note, Shingeki no Kyojin) at WIT Studio. Hiroyuki Sawano (Kill la Kill, Guilty Crown) is in charge for music. The anime is due in April 2016.

Will it save anime?

Holy fuck that animation.
Apart from that, from the trailer it looks pretty generic overall, reminds me of SnK. Can't really judge until I see it though.

It's like a steampunk SnK ripoff.

So will Araki fuck up and accidentally on purpose reveal the ending of SnK before the manga gets to it?

yep that's SNK rip-off

It's a steampunk Walking Dead ripoff obviously.
>>
Animation looks good, style reminds me of 80s. Too bad the plot looks like attack on titan- well, maybe it will be a actually good version of it. SnK fails mostly because the animation is shit and the story got generic.
>>
>>134901501
Definitely AOTY material. And noitamina can consider itself saved after the recent years of blunders.

Also looking forward to moefags and hipsters getting triggered like there is no tomorrow.

What's the story about?

I don't see any similarities to SNK beside the attached thing on their backs and group of people fighting monsters.

Why does it look old? Is it just the style?

Looks like Attack on Zombies.
Who knows, maybe we'll get some Mysteltainn Kicks.

Is SnK formula the new "trapped inside a MMO" genre?

>wipes out lots of humans
>mc family killed by threat, swears revenge
>joins special high school to fight threat
>get shit on at first
>gain some sort of special hidden power that makes them OP

See: Owari, Antimagic

>>134905430
You can add God Eater and Black Bullets

It was bound to happen after SnK's success.

Would have prefered a non-GC over a non-SnK

This show looks 80s as fuck and that's good but my god, this is so obviously trying to be SnK, it's ridiculous

Holy fuck could they be more obvious that they're copying SnK? Even Sawano's music sounds like clips from some of the tracks of the OST.

I mean I'll watch it but Jesus fuck man do you really have to use big fucking titans.

Araki and Studio WIT, We should have seen this coming.
>>
At this point I think the big wigs are just making fun of this whole thing with that staff selection.
>>
>>134901501
You know what?
It could be interesting. Sure it has elements blatant out of SnK but it could be interesting.
However the director is clearlt copy pasting.
I'll watch it and hopefully it distances itself from SnK quickly.

I don't know what's all the fuss.

It looks like a regular action series, Sawano always produces similar soundtracks, but that doesn't make them any less immersive.

Trailer doesn't give much in terms of plot, just the basic outline.

Artstyle looks good and not samefacey.

You guys are literally just freaking out over the names of the people involved.
>>
>>134908033
You have to be blind not to see the similarities to SnK. It's even more amusing given that these two shows share some staff.
>>
No matter how much it becomes SnK 2.0 it's still more original than 70% of a normal season, whether it's good or Guilty Crown tier it's probably gonna be fun to shitpost
>>
>>134908130

No, you're absolutely right. It is more than similar. I'm just saying that doesn't mean it has to be bad, even the exact same plot of Shingeki could be better with better writing.

Let's wait and see.
>>
>>134908130
>>134908304

Also, I just said that because calling it "SnK ripoff" is insulting as fuck, because damn that shit was bad.

It's going to flop isn't it?

Just how I've learned to not take people who praise Sawano seriously I've learned to stop taking people who defend PVs seriously especially from fucking WIT and even if you didn't watch it you could look at the fucking staff to see that this won't be good.
>>
>>134908490
>WIT
Yeah its fucked unless Aniplex is distributing it and market it to hell and back and give event tickets in every volume its pretty much has the same fate as other SnK clones.
>>
>>134908742
When is said it could be interesting i meant the concept itself is interesting, steampunk zombie apocalypse.
However the staff really is making it seem like SnK 2: Electric Boogaloo.
>>
>>134907350
It's by the same director and the same studio. It's fine.

Knowing Araki, he probably think SnK has a good premise but is fundamentally shit, so he's trying to make it his way, and that's perfectly fine.
Beside it looks more like the Empire of Corpse that the studio literally just finished.
>>
>>134901501
Plot looks generic as >>134903150 said, but I loved the steampunkish setting and the character design.
May be worth a watch.
>>
>>134901501

no

>>134902333

Co-creator is right. Okouchi is not the lone creator of Code Geass since Taniguchi has the same title in the credits.

Don't quote Wikipedia, which doesn't list everything, without looking at the actual credits.
>>
>>134905234
SnK is just a Chrome shelled Regios rip off

I really hope this goes full train-wreck and it seems highly likely that it will. The question is whether it will top Guilty Crown.

No, not really. The atmosphere and tone are already more consistent. So you're grasping at thin air.
>>
>>134910928
I think I'll judge by my own perception from what I see would likely from this show's staff rather than your "atmosphere and tone are already more consistent" thank you very much.
>>
>>134910928
And you're judging this by a fucking PV?
>>
The day when modern anime kills steampunk genre is upon us.

People gonna bite the SnK + muh 80s animu gimmick, then, publicity is created. Wannabe 80s anime enthusiasts gonna claim it's a deconstruction of steampunk genre. Or deconstruction of giant-slaying genre, if that's even a genre. Steampunk genre gonna be mainstream but also brought down to the ground just like SnK.
>>
>>134901501
I dunno what to think anymore. Nowadays, anime is trying too hard to one up each other rather than putting effort into being simply enjoyable. I have to TRY to like it.
>>
>>134901501
Looks like it might be fun. Pretty much only gonna watch for the animation tho.
