Did /a/ like this? I wasn't really fond of the fantasy direction it took halfway through and the ending episodes were cheesy as fuck. The first half was really good and then it dropped it all for some half-assed fascist plot and magical blondes.

>the ending episodes were cheesy as fuck
This is a good thing.
>>
>>119899354

It might have been cheesy, but it was expensive french cheese that was served with some excellent wine.
>>
>>119899354
I enjoyed it, I wasn't expecting anything groundbreaking either though.
>>
There haven't been many interesting sci-fi anime this decade, huh?
>>
>>119899369
Why? It was a cheap throw having Mori die and then magically ressurect within the same episode. It kills the suspense of the story and trivializes characters.
>>
>>119899395
This is a nice opinion, really
>>
>>119899447
It makes the audience happy and entertained. Therefore, it's a good thing.
>>
Pretty good but not as good as the original.
>>
>>119899473
>It makes the audience happy
assumption. It can also make the audience frustrated knowing the show is playing with them and lacks a consistent logic.
>>
>>119899447
I really really think that you're just dumb and can't like something when you don't understand it.
It was the will of Yamato.
>>
>>119899354
>cheesy as fuck
It's a remake of a 40-year-old anime
Anything less would be a disgrace to director's entire family line

Don't stare, Kodai. Don't stare at ass. Keep looking straight. Come on. You can do it, Kodai. Endure the pain.

>>119899542
So the ship is suddenly also a God?
>>
>>119899525
But it haves a consistent logic dude
Yes, is fantasy and all, but it has his own logic and sense within the fictitious universe it is presented.
Also, like the other anon said, it's a remake of a 40 year old classic and very heart warming series for the Japanese.
It has to be cheesy.

See? You didn't understand what you just saw.

They were constrained by the original story. All things considered, I liked how they smoothed out the coarser elements with foreshadowing.

Cheesy? Of course it is, it's based on 70s sci fi.
>>
>>119899447
So you're complaining that it had a happy ending? What did you want her to just die?

>>119899626
You don't seem to understand how that machine they got worked.
>>
It wasn't that bad. If you want poorly handled look at the original season. She "died" and came back to life with literally no explanation. At least this one had some silly magic explanation to it.

Fair enough. Then I watched this show expecting the wrong things apparently. Still, I couldn't help but notice how the show went the route of Battlestar Galactica, suspenseful first half and a more fantasy and spread-out second half. I still liked the show but I can't help but be dissapointed that it didn't retain the style of the first half.

More like Battle Star took the Yamato pace

If you don't mind older animation you might wanna give the old series a spin (season 1 only since MAGIC SPACE BITCHES kinda become a thing)

I'd say sticking to the original was what actually made it work as a remake. You can tell from watching 2199 is from a different era despite some obvious changes like more female characters, etc.
>>
>>119899447
It was worse in the original. Which this is a remake of.

Good spaceship action.

Story is good, albeit pretty much the same as the original, so spaceship fans no it well.
>>
>>119899999
Can't dispute those numbers.

I forgot how seriously the show takes itself. Yeah, there are bitches running around in skintight jumpsuits, but it's not like anyone gets flustered about it or anything. It's simply their uniform.

The use of interdimensional ships as submarines was pretty fucking clever.

Anime is cruelly lacking in Jouji Nakata.

I rewatched that scene about a dozen times when I first saw it and I never noticed how strange it is where Kodai is looking.
