It always feels weird when an anime makes this joke.
Like the people who make anime pull fun at people who criticize them, but it always feels so flat.
>you don't know what you are talking about
>making anime is hard work
Every fucking time.
>>144155134
Don't fall for it. It's literally the only good part of the show.
It worked for me

>>144155853
What the fuck
>>144155078
Well, why not.
>>144155555
It's not making fun of anything, it's just a demonstration of character. The only things mekaku criticizes are melodrama and romanticism.
>>144155584
that and the op
>>144155767
fafner is the kind of series that you'll watch for the story anyways
Its kind of a endless hole, you can't really avoid liking once you get into it, but you've got like eight seasons to watch but you can't watch anything else during that because you only want to watch fafner.
>>144156009
Holy shit this is the kind of stuff I love to watch, weird biological morphing of the body with gore.
I guess that's why Genocyber is kinda of a guilty pleasure of mine
>>144155899
We must destroy before we build again.
>>144155767
The thing is, if you are able to get through the terrible 2d animation in the original airing season, you'll practically be begging for the cgi in the sequels.
>mfw people keep posting that other webm as if it represents the entire fun silly show
>>144156033
>The only things mekaku criticizes are melodrama and romanticism
I think I missed that what with the magic snake and the ten characters that got maybe an episode each before they all teamed up to take down said magic snake to I don't know free some ghost faggot or something.

>>144156327
>hipster
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

I get the feeling that's a massive spoiler of a webm and you just spoiled whatever show it is completely.

Macross Frontier, second movie. And it's not that much of a spoiler, really.
>>144156740
Thanks anon.
>>144156740
All of Macross has been on my.shortlist for a while. Should I start from SDF, F, or Frontier? Does it matter?
>>144156667
Why does early Precure look so ugly. There's just something early thousands art like this that I just can't handle. It looks gross.

What episode was it in?
>>144156213
GreatestGundam
>>144156808
F is Frontier, and it's probably more accessible if you're used to modern anime, but SDF holds up surprisingly well and is probably the best of all of them. I watched Frontier first just knowing humanity had once fought a race of giant aliens and that was enough to follow along. There isn't much continuity but there is some lore that I won't spoil for you.
>>144156909

It was full of mad shitposters from Reco-g and A/Z since the show outsold them. That and it was a big middle finger to yuri fans.

>>144157214
Nice file, nerd.
Really though, "it looks like pretentious hipster garbage" is a very lazy of less traditional styles. It makes it sound like you either don't or can't appreciate heterodox art (and, on top of this, it makes it sound like you're trying to spin your shit taste as though it were a positive thing -- "oh, I don't watch this, not because I'm frightened by or too lazy to cultivate a taste for divergent aesthetics, but because I'm not a try-hard hipster").
Some of the best series and films benefit from styles that diverge drastically from more conventional animu.

Never forget that there was a show about lesbians in gundam fighting DRAGONS who was sent to reap island of lesbos then teamed up with interdemensional space women to fight a time wizard who controlled the universe in order to perform NTR infront of all lesbians and time wizard guy.

Book of Bantorra. Same author as Rokka no Yuusha, pretty underrated in my opinion but I can understand why. It's a rare kind of show, though, really really good worldbuilding.
>>144158110The space colony fleets Macross Frontier and Macross Galaxy are competing for the tech to control the bug-alien Vajra. Galaxy's lost their fleet but infiltrated Frontier, and they think they're about to take over the colony when they find out Sugita's one step ahead of them.

When did you admit your faults? In that deleted file?
Also, I gave up on Sayonara Suicide Sama part way through the first season, so I'm not trying to defend my preferences (at least not for the series that you hastily wrote off). I'm only calling you an ignorant pleb for thinking words like "pretentious," "hipster," or "snob" count as legitimate critique (or thinking these really have any sort of meaning at all).

When people ask me what genre cross ange is in I just tell them "it's the Cross Ange genre" because I don't know how else to describe it.

It was made by the FMA/ConRevo guy, Kantoku from Shirobako, and I think it's his best original work.

These kinds of things hardly ever get posted, get over it.
Besides, they serve as a reminder that spoonfeeding destroys threads and shouldn't be acceptable.

You know like 90% of the names are in the metadata right?

I'm not sure what you think metadata means, but I'm upwards of 90% certain it's not what you think it means.
>>144159039
The metadata can be seen by downloading the file and looking in its properties, or if you're running 4chanx you mouse over the "title" next to the filename.
>>144159115
I'm pretty sure it is.
ignore the filename that was for me lol I figured it out

Nah the movies, still a great watch

anyone else really enjoy this show? I know it was bad but I still loved it

What's worse: a medical eyepatch or a black eyepatch with frills and a silver cross?
I have a few from last season.

Yeah.
I thought metadata had been stripped out for the past year or so, but I guess that changed.
Or maybe it's just location that gets stripped.
