Is this worth watching at all?
It gives off a really strong rebuild of evangelion vibe.
>>137213387
Yes, also the second op is really great.

>>137213387
Have you seen the OVA?
>>137213677
Yes
Just watch it you faggot.
>>137213387
yes it's worth watching.
>>137213387
The animation is incredible, love the experimentation.
>>137213747
Yes, then.

I'll watch it then, what am I in for?
Are you American? Then you'll love it, because Japan didn't.
>>137214523
First season is meh/ok.
Second season is the best 1-cour action anime of all time.
>>137214523
Get ready to fall in love, then be mad when there's only two seasons.
>>137213387
Here, the superior version
Her fang is so delicious
>>137213747
is isn't actually similar to the ova. Neither characters, tone, action or anything. Even the plot is completely different. Liking the one does not mean you will like the other.

This is the best version of it I have.
Fuck the guy who uploaded it as a jpg though.
OP here, I just finished the first 2 episodes
Honestly I can't stand that "modern anime" look it has, if the third episode isn't incredible I'm dropping it
Also it doesn't help that I can't find a quality source
>>137216793
A quality source?
>>137216793
Stick with it to the end, it's worth it.
>>137217131
never mind, I was watching shitty 480p advertised as 720p, but I found a good source after a little more digging
>>137217180
I'll try my best senpai
>>137217222
Where did you find 720?
>>137213387
Its very good
>>137217265

So this is how it feels when you jizzed after pleasing your ears. Picked up.

You're a fucking idiot.
>>137213387
yeah mang it's awesome. Super fun, Birdy's a cutie.
>strong rebuild of evangelion vibe
wut
>>137216793
>Why can't it be like the 80s!
Why is this alway the sole complaint against Decode? Even as far as modern anime goes, it's not even close to the worst offenders of moe-blob syndrome.
>>137213544
nah. first op is better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jmg97-eoPgk
>>137217744
Yeah seriously. If you're going to complain about anything in Decode it should be the crappy romance they tried to shoehorn in in the second season to boost sales.
The art style is different sure, but it's nowhere near character assassination. For most people it just boils down to what they saw first anyway.
>>137217744
Call me crazy but I think New Birdy is an absolute marvel of character design and the OVA designs are ugly as a dead dog in shit.
I like both.
Is the manga full translated or is woefully 'translation never'?
>>137217982
It's killed two scanlators, take a guess.
>>137217996
Damn.
This world doesn't deserve more Birdy.
>>137214523
cute high school romance, then an edgy revenge arc
>>137217848
>The cylinder never rotates

Supress it for Birdy anon.
Or go watch Sabagebu.

So, straight hair Decode Birdy, or wild hair OVA Birdy?
>>137218818
OVA hair, Decode eyebrows.
Man Decode was so good. I remember watching the first season and hoping the second season could live up to it and it was even better.
>>137218931
I despise the romance shit they brought in.
Season 1 was tolerable, but 2 was just annoying as fuck
Great otherwise.
So 2nd season is superior? I watched 1st and didn't really get into it, but I like Birdy's theme.
Why does such a great character have to be stuck in such a boring plot?
>>137218976
The flashback arc was gold though. It's the best character interaction (between Birdy and Tsutomu) I've ever seen in anime.
Loli Birdy made me a lolicon.
>>137218976
I don't really even remember. I guess I just tuned it out.
>>137219031
Yes, i didn't particularity care about the first season, but loved the second.
>>137219060
>dat shower scene
>>137219057
Almost all of the flashback arc was great.
I'm gonna have to watch Decode again this week.
>>137219040
what would you change?
>>137217848
Nataru and Greenbitch a shit.
A Shit.
>>137213387
>It gives off a really strong rebuild of evangelion vibe.
Elaborate a bit on that, because...What the fuck, mate?
Unless you are talking about the "remake" aspect.
>>137219338
Retelling of an established plot that introduces small changes at first and then later completely abandons its source material?
Not OP, but that's my guess at what he meant.
>>137219338
This guy, >>137219418 , is spot on. New animation, altered plot, more fanservice.
I liked the OVA and don't want to watch a butchered version created solely to profit off of the original's popularity.
>>137219554
>profit
SEASON 3 NEVER
>>137219418
the new evangelions are not re-telling nor anything of the sort. They are in the same universe, it's sort of a loop. Shit's going to be explained and shit will happen next movie for extra mind fuckery.
>>137217848
what romance?
Also which one should I watch?
the original?
the ova?
>>137219917

>>137219963
Nataru x Birdy
It's shit, but I may be a little biased because she's my waifu.
Watch both, form your own opinions. I think both series have their merits.
Great fucking show. One of A-1's best. Don't get how Birdy never got popular.
>>137218818
That nanoha-ish plume is retarded.
>>137213387
The manga has killed like a dozen translators.
>>137221401
How many chapters have been translated?
>>137221513
13 volumes out of 39.
>>137221531
That's not counting Evolutions is it?
>>137221550
It is. First series was 20. Evolution was 13.
>>137213387
SEASON 3 WHEN?
BDs WHEN?
>>137220080
>>137220119
>>137219970
>>137220710
Last time Anno had huge depression and no will to live.
But now he has been cured, got married and is up like never before.
So yes, most likely it will or will at least resolve in a new way.
>>137220715
Holy shit! Nataru looks just like Suigetsu from Naruto!
>>137213387
Is it me? or does birdy really resemble Songbird from the thunderbolts?
80's Birdy Best Birdy.
>>137221845
It's not just you.
This thread makes me happy, I love Birdy.
>>137213387
Decide for yourself you stupid fucking faggot.
>>137221845
Holy shit I see a bit of a resemblance.
>>137221664
Look at these fucking arms. Jesus, the handjobs would be phenomenal. I want to be dominated by her.
>A-1 would rather give sao another season instead of Birdy
It hurts to live
I love her eyes.
>>137222528
It's all about the money. And apparently enough people over there hate this series.
>>137213387
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHDY
>>137218209
ITS ACTUALLY CHAMPING NOT CHOMPING :^)
>>137222528
I know, right?
>>137213544
OH FUCK YES!
>>137214523
You're waiting forS3 never
>>137217797
Shit taste detected.
>>137218818
Decode Birdy every day until I die.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLcUIWqBjpA
The ED from the last OVA has been in my head for a while.
>>137218818
80's manga Birdy
>>137217180
Every fucking time I listen to this advice from /a/ I regret it.
>>137219917
>going to be explained
We've waited 20 years. 20 FUCKING YEARS.
No way is Anno gonna make it that simple.
>>137225073
Well I mean it this time.
OVA Birdy was more expressive than Decode Birdy.
>>137221401
>The manga has killed like a dozen translators.
I don't get this joke, /a/non. Care to explain it to me?
>>137225642
any scanlation group that took up this manga dropped it and then ceased to be.
>>137221734
until he made 3.33
He had a remission or wtvr im pretty sure and its part of the reason 4 is taking forever
>>137225073
Probably because your asking people who don't know anything about you or your taste about a show they probably like. If they didn't already like the show they wouldn't come into the thread, nor are they going to tell you to stop watching the show, because they want you to like it.
Manga Birdy is superior Birdy
>>137226770
now that's cool
>>137225508
Really?
>>137225115
I always thought that Shion was a littleflat.
