Are you ready for a Hideo Kojima anime?
I never got what the hype was with this guy
>>137635467
That's because he's genuinely a garbage writer that makes LN authors look like Dostoyevski
>>137635522
I've read light novels, and I've read "real" Japanese literature, and I've read manga and watched anime.
I've also played his games.
He's not that bad. Some of them aren't that good.
I think his principal talent is as a screen writer, and at that, when he's engaged in affectionate parody of spy and action movies. If he'd never made it big he'd just be writing/making weird little games himself or with a small team like a lot of these guys do.
The style is not for everyone. Honestly it's kind of eccentric and an acquired taste. It does not necessarily involve "good" character writing or dialogue. (Although I think he has punchy examples of both. Just not you know, stuff for the ages. Not as high literature. But by god, fun and memorable.)

>He's not that bad
/tv/ here. his writing is a fuckin joke. his whole plot is a twist. and he covers his unlimited plot holes with more twists. his "movies" you cant even follow them unless you played all his previous shit. i cringed so hard in mgs2 that i fractured my skull. i think in his latest game some of his big movie friends (Toro) opened his eyes about what a complete fool he was makin of himself. having said that gameplay in mgs1/2/3 remains unbeaten

The gameplay in MGS is and was nothing particularly special, just action-stealth.
>his "movies" you cant even follow them unless you played all his previous shit
If you're from /tv/ you should know that's usually how sequels work, or maybe not just current television is pop fiction designed for imbeciles who can't follow a story thread for more than seven minutes, god forbid more than one plot point is happening at similar times.
>>137636045
Deus Ex did it too.
>>137636003
As someone who studies literature at the graduate level academically, it always surprises me when people who dislike Urobuchi start criticizing his writing. The fact of the matter is that, from a technical point of view, he is a very skilled writer. It's rare in anime that someone is so good at both writing compelling plots and making believable, interesting characters. All of Urobuchi's stories have both of these, as well as extremely well-written, interesting dialogue.
There are parts of Fate/Zero that actually remind me of Shakespeare. Of course I don't mean this in a qualitative way, but just in a structural sense of the way that he creates characters and writes them.
The only really shitty thing about Urobuchi is that he's very lazy. He needs to stop letting other people finish the stories that he starts. Aldnoah.Zero and Psycho-pass, arguably even Madoka Magica, are all incomplete and he's putting his faith in people who lack his sophistication and skill to realize the rest of his original vision.
Aside from this though, considering writing quality is typically the worst thing about anime, it's surprising that /a/ is so eager to denounce the few examples of competent writers that there are. Urobuchi, Kawahara and Okada are good examples of writers that are frequently slandered on /a/ by people who are trying to seem smart by having hard, contrary opinions, but who just end up sounding like idiots, at least to me, and I'm sure to anyone else who actually knows a thing or two about "good writing."

>>137635048
it can't work out, if it was pre-digital era of anime someone like Kojima could come in and make something great even without any background in animation, the way things are now though he'd be hard pressed to make anything that isn't just shoveled out garbage, cgi shit just like is lauded knight of sidonia anime

Ocelot falls in love with John.
Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with Snake's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls him, and is overjoyed to find out that he has a crush on him as well.
But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to him, Snake only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the Snake he called is not the same Snake he fell in love with. In fact, he doesn't exist in this universe at all. He is Snake's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with Ocelot's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of his crush.
Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the RULES of NATURE.

Metal Gear Solid has always being a gateway vidya of the worst kind. If you faggots take off your nostalgia googles you'd realise that the writing is basically Naruto tier levels of bad. Go play Planescape: Torment for an actual vidya with good writing.
