Why did every single one of his projects fail since then?

Is it safe to say that Urobuchi is pretty much done?
>>
>>139186221
You're not even trying.
>>
>>139186250
You actually think that any of his projects since then were good?

Or you don't agree with my AOTY picks? (not just mine, but a lot of /a/ agrees with this)

Going by OP's shit taste, let me continue.

>>139186332
Fuck off, idiot.
>>
>>139186221
I agree with the first two, but PP?

There was too much name-dropping of intellectual figures and concepts even Urobutcher knows nothing about, all just to make the show seem more intelligent to easily impressed teenagers. It had a good start though, but the ending was anticlimactic as fuck.

Fate/Zero wasn't even done by Urobuchi, it was an adaptation of a Buchi work. If Saya no Uta got an AOTY-tier adaptation, it wouldn't be an Urobuchi AOTY, assuming he didn't directly work on it, like Fate/Zero.

>>
>>139186705
Take again my comparison to Saya. If, for example, an adaptation got made, but looked and sounded like shit, while being a word for word adaptation, it'd still be a a shitty anime. It's very easy to have a word for word adaptation of a great source, and still have it be shit, thanks to piss-poor direction. A good script does not make a good show.

He was heavily involved in Kamen Rider Gaim, arguably the best rider series in recent years. Iirc he had a hand in every episode's script of the series.

What do you mean?

>>139189390
He wrote every episode except for the stupid Kikaider crossover. His company Nitroplus also did some monster designs.

I sincerely recommend you try it though. The pacing is very much like a typical anime and the action is pretty good.

Are Kamen Rider and Super Sentai worth watching? And are they the same thing or what?

I remember Gokaiger looking super interesting to me, like 5 years ago and I wanted to watch it, but then someone told me that I'm first supposed to forst watch the 10 previous shows in order to fully get it and understand all of its references, so I gave up.

Am I blind, or is Ws Anderson missing from that list?

>>
>>139194408
It's not like the references aren't spelled out for you. They literally tell you what series the guest characters are from. As long as you're aware of the series that came before it, you don't have to slog through all of them to watch Gokaiger. Rider on the otherhand, is worth watching almost all of them. W/Gaim/Kabuto are good starting points.

There's a lot of people on this list that had talent at one point but have pissed it away trying to conform to what's currently expected from their medium.

I guess you haven't read Parts 5, 6, and 8, especially 8, which deviate significantly from that format.
>>
>>139199933
You understand they are both essentially both toy commercials especially the recent stuff. But KR always tries to have heroes fighting monsters using their powers going back to the very original. Overall the quality and writing is pretty much even though Rider can get away with more because it's kind of expected even if it's a kids show.

>>139194408
If you were alive in the 90's, you might remember the hilariously awful attempts to localize Kamen Rider. Only Power Rangers caught on.

They're series that tell a story in one year before ending, with the exception of the crossover events (Kamen Rider Decade and Gokaiger are both crossover events for milestone years) and cash cow milking. Just read the story synopsis and pick whatever one looks interesting.

Gokaiger is a masterpiece though.

>>139200564
Hated the first one, felt too gook. Felt worse than gook.
Gookshit typically has a lead, some thin veneer of character sympathy to get out of the way, and then copious bloodletting. The first outrage was like that, except this time the veneer is painfully and pretentiously constructed.

I don't think he's a hack, this is way different than his ganster stuff in the 90s (and his comedies people seem to forget about) but it really felt like it was just aping what south korea made popular in 00-09.
>>
>>139200907
Well, watch the second one, if you didn't already. It's nothing like the first one and it's actually super entertaining and less "complex".

Yeah, his 90s stuff is good, I still have to see Boiling Point tho.
>>
>>139200907
And yeah, Koreans are really good at making those slick, polished thrillers and action films, but after a while, you realize they're all the same.

I prefer their indie, arthouse cinema.

Don't start with Karajan, never listen to anything conducted by him, ever. He ruins Tchaikovsky, he conducts Bruckner too smooth and suave, which produces some nice orchestral sounds but has no bite or impact. Generally in his symphonies, Bruckner is a very spacious composer and you'll find that different interpretations can handle that space differently. but there's no doubt that they're all long in their uncut editions.

If you liked Karajan you will also like:

I don't even see how someone can think Gaim is repetitive when you have utter shit like Wizard with at least 16 episodes that are just irrelevant, paper-deep "plots" for giving the rider his upgrades.

One thing I would have liked changed in Gaim would have been introducing the Ryugen Hell form much earlier (like around his confrontation with his brother). I think not introducing it failed to highlight how much of the final Overlord episodes was Micchy self-destructing and going off the cliff instead of building up to a further final conflict between him and Kouta like many thought at the time. And it would have explained stuff like him beating his brother or even Kaito and Kouta.
>>
>>139205830
It was fine, and anyone familiar with Urobuchi would know that the final showdown would be between Kouta and Kaito.

Urobuchi was constantly changing the script as he went along because of various constraints, Micchy was supposed to be killed off around episode 36.

Yeah I honestly never got the big deal for this show. It had some interesting ideas in it but it's frankly one of Madhouse's most inconsistent looking shows, the way it handles exposition and overall pacing is incredibly awkward and the music is just dreadful really. It ended up just kind of average for me which is still better than a lot of recent stuff but it also had a ton of problems, some typical of anime, some kind of specific to the show itself.

There's a ton of stuff that's supposed to look or sound objectively good according to the community that just kind of doesn't for me or at least as much as people like to insist though so I just chalked it up to being one of those sorts of things.

/a/ certainly claims to believe a lot of strange things owing to it's staunch contrarian nature and outright hatred of anything deemed to "normal" or accessible to the general public which automatically makes those things bad while conversely making anything fringe and weird the most amazing shit since sliced bread.

Problem is I'm not sure I believe most of the shit anons say are things they actually believe though since most of the time it just looks like people are troll baiting by stating the most extreme positions possible that no rational person would ever agree emphatically with.

PP was pretty meh, especially the animation. And S2 totally ruined it.
Gargantia was meh except for the 1st half of ep1 and the ending
A.Z was deteriorated rapidly.

The butcher by himself is no guarantor for success. The rest of the team needs to tamper him.

Only if it was about the galactic alliance. I couldn't care less about mesoamerican ocean hippies.
