How can something so underrated be so good?The true AOTY
Less than half of the episodes were actually good.
It had some gem moments but the average was pretty mediocre and the ending fell completely flat.
The best part about it was the soundtrack.
THE TRUE AOTY
I cried every arc except the first one.
>>139999999 is about to happens lads
>>139989625
The words "pacing issues" are over-used on /a/ but in this case there are no other words to describe this series and the potential it wasted.
>>139989625
It was shit
>>139990280
pretty sure I already proved you wrong
>>139990317
you are shit
>>139989625
meh
>>139990251
I think the actual 140MGET is more important than the preceding 9's, m8.
>>139990490
I can die happily getting any of those, anon
>>139989625
Hated even by its own staff.
Good concept that fell flat.
Confusing as all hell.
Poor animation in most episodes.
Wasted fucking potential.
The whole "2 episode arc" format really killed it for me, becasue some arcs for nicely into it while others really had to be stretched, which killed pacing.
>>139990325
>Series is moderately popular and survives the 3 episodes rule for many people
>By episode 8 most of /a/ dropped it
This is a dead give away that there were problems.
People really wanted to like it and it started out strong and then it fell to pieces. They started out calling it AOTS and but then a month later it was "it felt like too much of a chore to watch to I moved it to my backlog". Then they forgot about it.
>>139989625
>Rolling Girls
>The girls barely roll in 12 episodes
How can a country suck this much? Girls are awesome, bikes are awesome, so it should have been double awesome. And yet it was shit.
>>139990653
This. It felt like an absolute chore to get through some of those two parters.
It was a nice watch.
>>139990728
>By episode 8 most of /a/ dropped it
So half of /a/ dropped it in the best episode of the year?
Did you even watch it or just playing retard?
1st episode was good
you get fooled into thinking it would be an awesome series about macha green doing cool shit but instead it's normal people with no powers watching other people with powers.
>>139990653
This is true though. But I still really enjoyed it.
>>139990818
>Did you even watch it or just playing retard?
Dropped it before episode 8, not at episode 8. Maybe if the good episodes came earlier it would have been saved?
>>139990251
>>139990490
oh boy here we go
>>139989625
The ending was a disappointment and characters didnt get enough development like I wanted in the end. Still very good, a very strong 7.
Animation, visual style, and soundtrack carries it the entire way though.
Octo best girl
>>139991312
You know that you don't know what you are talking about when you say the animation and visual carried the show, when it was bad and full of quality.
And of course rating things with numbers.
It fell apart spectacularly in the writing department and you know it did.
>>139991312
The cutest.
>>139991385
Except it did.
>>139991502
Anyone hype for Flip Flappers from the same concept illustrator.
Complete waste of a setting and art style.
>>139991631
>Anyone hype for Flip Flappers from the same concept illustrator.
I pray to GOD it doesn't suck as much as Rolling Girls
Just give us a well-told story and engaging characters
KLK fag btfo.
For all of its objective flaws in directing, pacing, storytelling, and even animation in some parts, it was still the most charming and enjoyable show of the past year. I never would have thought that character design, art direction, and soundtrack could carry a show but this one sure proved me wrong
>>139991631
Very hype
>>139990400
Anime was shit. Deal with it
>>139989625
No fuck you, Rolling Girls was bad and it should have been so much better.
>>139990653
Yeah but the payoff was always good. Every time.
When an anime can make me feel and cry with its sheer beauty and melody, I don't care about the downtime during set-up.
>>139991631
Sexiest
>>139989625
I got bored a few episodes in.
>>139993644
That's because you are a filthy pleb though.
i love the rollin grils
The thinking man's K-ON.
>>139996568

did the shitposters leave already?
>>139989625
Snoozefest
The albums for this were great.
>>139991631
Also that looks like an exposed chest with a micro bikini.
Let it be known she is mai waifu
>>139997708
The music is amazing for sure.
My fav OST last year and that's really something because we had Hibike and OPM OSTs.
>>139994001
This is the reason people bullshit about it. The clearly don't have any idea what it is about at all, come to watch it as tourist and in the end obviously get disappointed since it wasn't made for his taste.
hibikes was the true aoty
>>139999330
I dropped it when I got bored.
>>139989625
>people still think Rolling Girls was good

Nande desu ka?
I, for one, am still mad it didn't have linda linda.
>>139989625
It was fun and comfy, but kinda pointless
>mfw that concert episode though, that was my kinda shit
>>140001000
there is ange porn?
is it worth watching?
I just thought OP looked cool.
>>139989625
That's not Etotama.
>>140001309
Etotama was really amazing, I wish it got another season.
The character songs were fun too.
Probably my favourite show of the year.
>>140001264
Yes, it's the best
>>140001309
This is a joke
>>140001402
One year later and I can't stop singing the ED.
>JAANE
>>140001000
I have no idea, but legit question.
Gonna go and look.
>>140001309
>>140001402
This was crap and you should make like the rest of the board and stop hyping it.
Thank you. Some other poor anons might be deceived.
>>140002882
Rude!
>>140002882
I really liked RG. Personal favorite of its season and one my favorites of 2015.

I like the character-focused episodic format with the overarching plot unfolding mostly piecemeal in the background. Most of the arcs were enjoyable, definitely picking up steam as it went along, and I didn't feel like it suffered from the mandatory two-parters like some people do. The main cast likable and they all had their place on the team. The world was interesting and colorful, albeit criminally under-explored, and the visuals were generally great despite the occasional quality.
Also the esteemed award for best use of cute girls covering punk rock to accompany the climax in a chinese cartoon.
It was good.
The show was too wobbly
I liked Fat Elvis
>>140007645
;_; Thank you
That's a great description
>what if we make trailers for the next kill la kill and then switch it out for a show with no plot.

Too wobbly?

>It fell apart spectacularly in the writing department and you know it did.
They need Space Dandy writers or at the very least the ones who did Blood Blockade Battlefront
>>139989625
>so good
That would imply it didn't fall apart after the first few episodes in true studio WIT style. When it did.
I really couldn't bring myself to give a shit about any of the characters.
