If they retold the story without their stylized 2deep9edgy story it could have been one of the best anime stories ever told.

Depends on one's definition of "/k/."

I personally enjoy anime with loads of gun porn so my picks are Black Lagoon and Jormungand.

>"the teacher" defected to the other nation and is actually fighting a genuine war against a fucked up government

Wait I missed this part. I thought it was implied that Teacher was the original of the main character and that he made such a point of killing the pilots (not just shooting them down) because he A) was a sadist who enjoyed combat and didn't think of them as people or B) was trying to destroy all his clones as a vendetta/moral thing.

They said that the battles are waged by companies for both entertainment and as a form of competition among businesses (bomb your competitor's factories), but I don't remember them saying the Teacher defected.
>>
>>29421910
Different anon, I believe there was a game released where you play as the "Teacher" before he was called such and you originally fight on the side depicted in Skycrawlers before you defect. This is all 2nd-hand, I've never played the game.

I'm not a huge fan of this style. I like his movies (Ghost in the Shell is one of my favorites) but I always feel confused and that I have to watch them several times to understand what's going on. In most cases that's fine because they're fun to watch, but it's not good storytelling. I still have no idea what Ghost in the Shell 2 was about and I've watched it twice. There are way too many slow shots in his stuff where you can feel that he wants you to be entranced or w/e but it just ends up feeling tedious. Sky Crawlers had gorgeous scenes but there's only so long I can watch two characters staring off into nowhere sullenly

Wings of honneamise is in the list with porko roso of course. Area 88 is good airporn though.
Spriggan is a go-to good times flick too.
New Dominion and associated lore/world (tank police, bubblegum crisis).
These lead into desert punk territory pretty quick, which pairs with trigun nicely.
Wash it down with some cowboy beebop and cleanse the pallet with a few choice episodes from planets.

Patlabor OVA. I forgot which one, but they're all good anyway

From Ghost in the Shell I should add.

>>29422733
>>29422740
It's the same guy, so yeah, references, it's probably easier to re-use an old design, plus cool factor absolutely.

Patlabor 2 being pretty goat, let's have some vids:
The helicopter attack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQVIV_7RRMQ
The air intruder scene
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwNRv-lubCg
And the classic atmospheric Oshii's scene
https://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=1dmlwhaEEgE

I'd rate Patlabor 2 pretty high for Oshii's actually just as good as GitS and certainly less philosophically heavy (and the philosophy it's less hammered than in the two GitS)

It's covered in the games. He's called The Teacher because he was a flight instructor before he defected. He's one of the last few remaining non cloned pilots left, thus why he's recking fools left and right. He has decades of experience.

He's basically on a clone murder spree.

Maybe /k/ can help since presumably they like anime with vehicles in it.

Why does CGI, especially with vehicles, always look so weird?

The current idea i have is that the motion is too fluid relative to the rest of the thing. (i.e. a person turning may have noticeable "stops" instead of moving in one fluid motion, whereas CG'd things will move more fluidly. (Basically the part that's still drawn "skips" frames showing motion while the CGI doesn't) Combine this with some dodgy camera angles and generally 2d or prerendered looking backgrounds and maybe that's an explanation.
