I generally liked it and I did enjoy watching the show and reading the threads on /a/ when it aired.
>>
>>140687157
Unique pacing and had some pretty good art. Didn't like how abrupt the ending was though. 8/10

I was expecting something entirely different.

The plot was poorly paced, the animation could have been better and overall, it didn't live up to the hype. The second last episode renewed my hype but that quickly dissipated in the finale. It was a fun ride to watch with /a/ and the music was fantastic though. It had a few moments here and there, also made even better with consideration to all the speculation and homages to other series.
>>
I really wish it hadn't been hyped. Months of TRIGGER WILL SAVE ANIME threads ruined all KLK discussion before it even aired. It wasn't an amazing show, but it was fun, a solid 8/10, and it didn't deserve that.

Yes, but the ending was a clusterfuck of disappointments.
You can say whatever you want about the second cour - but the hype train didn't stop there, it got more intense.

wait, so is /a/'s definition of edgy at this point anything with blood at all? I mean, yeah ryuko was a bit edgy, but true edgieness is when someone for no reason just wants to KILL because they enjoy the taste of blood or some shit, not someone who is a bit hotheaded

It's not about the blood retard it's about the suicidal implications. In practice it's not edgy but conceptually it sounds like you'd cut yourself looking at it.

Nui lived up to my expectations of being the cutest and most fashionable girl.

I remember watching Kill La Kill with /a/ and it was glorious, every time a new episode aired there were tons of discussions about the show. It probably got just as much attention on /a/ as Attack on Titan did when it first aired.

No, because people were seriously deluded enough to think it would be a second Gurren Lagann, an anime that quite literally cannot be topped, by design.

I liked it, but a lot of people didn't like the pacing, characters, themes, or animation and were really let down by it, even if they went in with lowered expectations. It's been a while since I watched it though, I don't even remember >>140687520 but then again there was a time when there were 5 KLK threads on /a/ at any given time so I tended to avoid it outside of the live watches.

How?
TTGL had a decent plot at least.

>>140687157
yes, and that's why /a/ hates it.
>>
>>140694363
TTGL had a plot? It was so straight forward it's hard to even recall what it was, like a shallow puddle. It was all GO CRAZY! and things will turn out fine. At least KLK actually has some real reasoning behind the actions the characters take. Neither show is particularly plot heavy, but the end of KLK has a much thicker plot than TTGL.
