What JRPG would you like to see fully adapted in a Chinese cartoon? Is there any that would actually work as a 2 or even 4 cour show if adapted by a competent company? Seems like all the ones that have where completely shitty adaptations with bad animation or where barely related to the source material

I did that. I have no idea why, the Japanese cast is stelllar and Agnes had a really grating voice, but I still liked it overall. It felt like a saturday morning cartoon, so it helped to settle the mood for a more classical RPG.

I played it in English too, didn't even see the setting to change to grorious nipponese
Getting back to the topic, Bravely Default would make a bad animu imo.
The several loops (5-7ish I think), same bosses over and over again, just with a little more strength than last time and such.
But I'd love to see how a studio could show Airy's changes physically and how Airy's charade gradually comes undone.

Jap games in general, I'd like to see a Pokemon Mystery dungeon FULL animu adaption, I know it would have a bunch of bullshit for genwunners but the thought of spelunking caves/forests/volcanos/mountains in search of lost poke-mans/items/kidnapped pokes just sounds fun to me

>>111085045
This. Also final fantasy 6 (two cours for each world ideally), 999 (could be done tatami galaxy style or one conglomeration sequence, the latter would probably work better but the former has the potential to be amazing), and mother 3 (would have to be executed very carefully but again could be something incredible in the right hands).

I'd make The World Ends With You 3 cours, one for each week, though that's an unusual length for a show so maybe it wouldn't work.

I wished for an Atelier adaptation once and look at how that turned out.
>>
>>111090749
It would make way more sense with one episode = one day. 3 "cours" of seven, with maybe two episodes for the last day or some other one that merits it, and the extra story thing as a bonus episode, so a 22-24 episode or so 2-cour show in all. The only thing it would be missing is all that delicious hanekoma report exposition/world building, but hell, that could probably be worked in a little alongside the series. It could be really damn cool.

I'm not sure you could consistently do one day= one episode. It would probably be fine for week one, but weeks two and three have more stuff going on in them I have trouble seeing a number of exposition heavy days fitting in one episode.

On another note, how would the fight scenes work? Like the original DS version where they partners are seperated, or more like the iOS version where they fight together? While gameplay wise I prefer the original, I think having them fight together would work better in an anime.

It would be interesting to see the "separated" fighting mental linkage stuff going on but the other way would be safer. I want to say either would be good if done properly.

But yeah, the days are pretty uneven. I really like the idea of the episodic style but it certainly wouldn't hurt to have some days be divided into parts.

It's a series carried almost entirely by gameplay. Your party is just composed of classes and character portraits (Mainly lolis or Christmas Cakes) you like. They have no actual personality or relevance to the non-existant story. The 'story' in EO mainly revolves as 'here is a labyrinth, explore, git gud, rinse and repeat till end'. You use your imagination to fill in the gaps.

It'd make a shit anime.

>>111084709
I love Bravely Default, though would an anime adaption of it really work?

>>
>>111085125
After having played both, I like the Jap voices more but the Dub voices I found to actually be pretty awesome

Ringabel was perfect. Tiz was just Tiz and Edea was olev. Agnes was the only weak one out of the four, but even then she sounded really good when just speaking normally. Her VA was fucking terrible at screaming or acting angry though.

And the dub had based Liam O'Brian as Kaiimizumi, which was great.

only exception, but mostly due to the aspect that they took what happened in the game and placed in the last 7 episodes. At the same time expanding the 5 min game backstory into 16 episodes. Somewhat cheating a bit though

6 would have to be very episodic and condense things. Like just 1 episode for all of the Locke/Rachel story, etc. 9 would work if it was adapted more as a celebration of the previous seasons and didn't try too hard to be it's own thing and just relied more on references to the previous seasons as a sort of fanservice.

It got lolis and bullying; what's not to like.
The loli MC controls the spirits of the dead; merge them and to seal them into items to make them more powerful.
The killing of your own units also plays an important role, because it darkens your karma which allows you to use better weapons and to learn the technique that is "blasphemy incarnate"

"When Marona was a child, her parents and their employee Ash were killed by demons. In desperation they used their magic and a plea to God to turn Ash into a Phantom, a type of ghost caught between Life and Death, to protect Marona as she grew up.

Like her parents, Marona is a Chroma; she is able to summon the spirits of the dead and give them temporary physical forms by possessing inanimate objects. For this, the people in Marona's world think of her as The Possessed One who can kill them all, so naturally they go out of their way to insult and belittle her.

Game mechanics aside, Marona's a rather sweet girl who loves everyone, and who seems cheerfully uncomprehending of the fear she provokes in others. Which means her neighbors have someone to protect them from the dark forces that killed her parents."

6 would definitely have its moments if paced correctly, if nothing else. I'm imagining a train episode, an opera episode, a Celes alone on the island episode, and Ultros and Kefka stealing the show in general. It could be really nice.

Kefka is such a shitty villain though. The fact that he's basically a wisecracking miniboss elevated to ultimate power makes people think he's original compared to other villains, but in the end he's just a cardboard cutout villain. You can say Sephiroth is edgy or tryhard if you like, but at least he has a meaningful backstory and motivation other than "I'm crazy and I want to rule the world and everyone in it."

Sephiroth had a charisma and presence in the game that has rarely been matched in any game since.

That fucking moment in the Temple of The Ancients when he just full on floats past the fucking screen and stares at you. And when the ground rumbles and Cloud shouts "Sephiroth?!" to which Sephiroth replies "Ha ha ha. Its not me..." and you are ambushed by a fuckoff huge fucking dragon out of nowhere.

Awesome fucking moments

Okay, I shouldn't have said literally. But why not just imagine your own story in your head without having to plow through endless battles that have no other context than "You're an adventurer who wants to explore this labyrinth".

I got through the original EO, but nothing in it made be want to do it again. If it had had a story, I could have put up with the rest.

Because for one, building a team and leveling them up while collecting stuff is pretty fun for me, and second, the battling helps build up situations on the spot, like if you are fighting an FOE, and someone takes a critical hit and you imagine everyone taking counter measures.

Also, try playing EO3 at the very least.

I can do all that in my head. It's like reading a manga where 90% is the character in a training arc that is shown in real time. If you like it, that's and I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that, but I'm just not interested in that kind of gameplay experience.

The plot in FF Tactics has always been terrible.

I don't know why it gets such accolades when all it was a bunch of political babble that had little to do with the main plot. That and Tactics Ogre and Vandal Hearts both managed to execute the same type of plot without fucking it up.

>>111094680

If the character barely ever interacted with anyone else, I guess it would. And if the silent protagonist's story arc was just "Here's a dungeon, progress down it as far as you can."
>>
>>111094579
Still, if an anime, which would rely heavily on the story, was based off of something weak, then wouldn't that make for a weak anime?

Etrian Odyssey was made to be a very gamey game. The gameplay is what makes the series good. It just wouldn't translate into an anime since it has no main characters, no major story, and is overall meant to be a callback to old tabletop games.

Is the plot essentially, "You are an adventurer. Here are some other adventurers. Here is a dungeons. If you proceed down this dungeon by fighting monsters you'll get loot and gain new abilities. In the very end, you will find out something interesting about the nature of the dungeon." Then I'm not interested.

Most people who've played the series, if asked, wouldn't even recommend playing the first two games. Three and four are far and away the best in the series, and while all the games start more or less the same (You are an adventurer, go explore), by the second stratum, the plot kicks into full gear.

It would be good commercially, but only because the game itself already panders as much as most modern anime.

The Jugdral games, on the other hand, have enough depth and politics to actually be engaging. Awakening's plot is just generic fantasy bullshit, complete with amnesiac protagonist, and it would probably end up being a harem anime anyway sine Robin would have to choose a waifu or something.

Awakening sucks.

I never said it was "bad". I said I don't like it. Personally, I think it would make a lot more sense to just play a pen and paper RPG with friends if this sort of thing interested you.

I don't understand that appeal of something so confining as going down a dungeon because I'm an adventurer if I'm doing to be the one supplying the story.

Lore =/= Plot

Nope I played the updated version. It has a decent premise but the execution is god awful, and the political babble has very little to do with the actual plot of the game as in the actions of the main character Ramza who just happens to keep running into Lucavi. Not to mention the lovely "main character joins your party and is never heard again"

And again it's plot loses utterly when you compare it to games like Tactics Ogre and Vandal Hearts.

Well, basically any RPG could be well adapted, but the ones I'd love to see are :

- Final Fantasy 4 - 5 - 6 - 9 - Tactics (two seasons for each, although 5 and 9 could be hard to split)
- Kingdom Hearts (c'mon, it would be a HUGE money gain for both SE and Disney, especially if you split that into a season per game)
- Chrono series (Trigger + Cross, one season each)
- Etrian Odyssey Untold (I want to see more delicious animated Frederica)
- Bravely Default (two seasons, the second one devoted to the repetitive part and delving more into bonus content and into spoilers)
- The World Ends with You (see under)

From a gameplay perspective FF Tactics is great the plot just needs some work. I could live with how it carried things if it weren't JUST Ramza and his recruitable characters actually commented on things and didn't stop being heard from after they were recruited into your army.

I mean big ones like Agrias, Cid, and that Machinist guy just vanish.

Well yeah, but those episodes were good when you followed a guide. I remember thinking even as a kid with very limited grasp of what a story consists of though that the stories are absolutely terrible when you don't do it right. Random characters pop up that you've never seen before that are apaprently important. Things happen that should lead to otbher things happening that never do. Etc.

I remember there being a "villian" who really ended up just being a guy trying to save a girl or something but you never really got that unless you finished his plot line which required some very specific placements. Weird game mechanic. Not sure why someone thought it was a good idea.
