Is Doga Kobo the new KyoAni?
Can't tell if bait thread or not.
I'm more likely to give a show a chance than I normally would if Dogakobo is the studio, how about that.
No they don't use enough filters.
New Game! seems as shallow as Phantom World so maybe.
But honestly that first episode was pretty bad, I hope it has more than just cute girls pretending to program. How hard is it to copy YuruYuri S1&2?
>>143771278
As they are good as KyoAni was in its prime? Not really. So no they're not the new "it" studio unless they objectively out-KyoAni KyoAni. The thing is much of KyoAni's output in recent years besides Hibike (even that's questionable) hasn't been so great; they're so lopsided now in their portfolio with respect to time it's getting impossible to ignore.
Is Doga one of the absolute best studios in the industry right now? Definitely.
>>143771730
Fuck off faggot no one cares about your blogging this is a shitposting thread.
>>143771278
I was thinking the same thing while I was watching this episode but I don't know why. Is it because they seem to have developed their own artstyle and have consistently well animated mundane shows? we'll never know.
>>143771660
>le ebin nerds xD
That's not even close to what is it you fucking faggot. She can't even perform the basic tasks of her job yet.
>>143771690
>I hope it has more than just cute girls pretending to program
But K-On had cute girls pretending to play musical instruments and it was good.
>>143771278
Their overall performance for the past four years is better than KyoAni's, that's for sure.
>>143771690
the point is, phantom world wanted to add a pretentious layer to their comedy, and failed due to being shallow. they did their best recent comedies with amagi and nichijou.
New game does what it claims - being a fun SoL about work life. What's not to like?
This comes from a KyoAni-Fag. Their adaptions are always hit and miss, but at least the visuals are consistantly stunning.
>>143771678
This.
Dogakobo doesn't need shitty post-processing to make their animation look good
>>143771278
>Is Doga Kobo the new KyoAni?
Both have been in my top three studios for quite a long time now along withSilver Link, so I don't see why not.
>>143771278
ぞい子ちゃんを抱きたい！
>>143771876
There's more life to their characters too, IMO
Just through the movement and facial expressions.
>>143771863
I don't remember Phantom being pretentious at all.
>>143771278
Doga Kobo has nothing to do with Kyo Ani.
They are great though.
Dat YRYRS1&2
I would say so.
>>143772003
He probably just saw the thread about Schrodinger's Cat and thinks the whole show is just that.
>>143771690
>just cute girls pretending to program
Picked up.
>shota shittery in 2 of their recent series
>not doing YrYr 3
>now old hags
Nah, they are horrible and you should fucking choke on their normalfag shit.
>>143772448
Actually is about cute girl pretending to make videogames.
Does Dogakobo film anime? I thought not.
>>143771278
Dogakobo has a track record for moe SoL, that's about it.
>>143772552
>Implying the first thing you meme arrowed is bad
>>143772577
Fujoshi fuck off.
What was it about YrYr s3 that pissed off /a/? I wasn't around while it was airing so I don't know the complaints. As a manga purist I thought the new studio did fine.
>>143772611
Aside from the gray scale, the thin and tall character design and the choppy animation?
There still were a few things.
They still can't make Kirarashit appealing like KyoAni.Or maybe New Game and Sansha Sanyou just suck
>>143772740
>old hags ever appealing
>shota shit ever good
>>143772706
I didn't mind the new designs because they were closer to the manga, Yui's mullet always bothered me. I can see why the animation bothered people in retrospect, I think I was just happy to get a s3.
>>143772775
No, they looked years older and more mature than both in previous seasons or the manga.
>Dogakobo
>good
Are we forgetting this pile of trash 2 seasons ago?
>>143772838
>fanservice of the fucking big girls
>nothing of the flat ones
Their shit performance there sealed the deal.
>>143772611
Lacks energy, completely bland. Lots of differences from the manga, it's not even episodic.
>>143772775
The designs were closer to the current look, but that was because they used to be so round and blobby. The animation was bad and often made them look lanky, older, and uncute.
>>143772552
Yurifags fuck off to your containment board
>>>/u/
Not until they do 60fps perfect flowing hair motion.
I'm taking the bait
Fuck you, OP
>>143771278
Not until they adapt a manga, that results in them creating an anime that is absolutely nothing like any show they've done before (and would go on to create after), that is is their greatest show, and has far more sakuga than any other show.
>>143772890
Nobody talked about being yurifag or not, homo sexual pedophile.
>>143772552
Aoba wasn't tired from eating snacks all day, she was tired from carrying the show.
>>143773031
She was tired because she's a rheumatic old hag.
Dogakobo is good for their animation, but they don't really have that much else going for them.
>>143772740
Kirara in general only has a few good series, most of generic cgdgt series /a/ meme about definitely aren't the ones
>>143773170
Still waiting warmly for a Hitsugi Katsugi no Kuro adaptation
>>143771278
Whoever made love lab and That hamster gamer gurl are
They animate their shows so well
>>143771950
This. Kyoani sameface may be a meme by now, but it's not that far from the truth. Their characters look and move as if they're all lifeless dolls being animated by ghosts who are attempting to mimic humans, and getting it almost, but not exactly, right.
>>143772571
Which is_objectively the best genre, so that places them near the top already.
>>143771278
In that they've done a single good show and everything after that was shit? Yes.
>>143772363
>>143772003
I saw the whole thing, and the first minutes of every episode was basically masturbation only mildly relevant to the actual plot, if at all.
I like Dogakobo but they are definitely no Kyoani
>>143776175
>explaining illusions and a nerd being a nerd reciting old tales is now considered pretentious
>>143776339
Then I don't know what pretentious actually means, sorry, i'm not native.
For me it's useless lorebabble fluffing out the barely-existant "story" which is episodic in nature anyways so none of it matters much.
>>143772611
>What was it about YrYr s3 that pissed off /a/?
Washed out colour palette. Zombie-like animation. Low energy in every aspect. Hyper-distorted expressions were half-assed. Mid-episode cutscenes replaced with dull still images. Direction was generally sloppy.
I didn't realise how much I liked Doga Kobo as a studio until I realised how much of what made YRYR good was down to their design choices.
S3 wasn't terrible though. It's just that it was more like a 5-6/10 whereas seasons 1 and 2 were more like an 8-9/10
>>143771278
The only failed series they made as Plastic Memories and 11eyes.
Other than that, most of their works are pretty average to above average with some being exceptionally good.
Compare this to KyoAni? I say they stand toe to toe with them.
>>143771863
>phantom world wanted to add a pretentious layer to their comedy, and failed due to being shallow
No, that's not it. Phantom world failed because it had literally no sense of tension or consequence and everything was unfailingly resolved via deus-ex machina.
It was always a shallow action/harem/comedy thing, but it didn't just fail at being funny. That's giving it too much credit when it had other ways in which it also failed.
>>143771863
>New game does what it claims - being a fun SoL about work life. What's not to like?
It's not fun.
>>143776328
You're right, Dogakobo is capable of producing anime that's actually interesting.
>>143776680
>plastic memories
>interesting
Thanks for letting us know about your shit taste.
>>143776750
Why are you misquoting me?
>>143771690
>>143771821
>>143772448
not programming. 3D asset creation. fuck
>>143771278
I'd be more accepting towards Dogakobo, at least their fanbase aren't lousy.
>>143771876
Wew
Do they need exclusive LN money like kyoani to do that or what.
>>143771278
No.
I like Dogakobo, they make some quality stuff.
But absolutely dislike anything not-FMP by kyoani.
>>143772558
Any real show about cute girls actually making videogames?
>>143771730
So if these trends continue for the next year or two?
Kyoani is the greatest studio that ever existed
>>143777517
They just have good animators.
>>143777739
>not Disney
>>143777739
>not Shaft
>>143777669

>>143777806
The only good part of Disney is Pixar desu
>KyoAni has shown legit sakuga in their works
>people are saying they use filters
?????
>>143777915
With the input Pixar is giving these past 6 years versus Disney's recent input? (save for Frozen, FUCK THAT), I doubt it. Though Pixar has knocked it out of the park with Inside Out and Finding Dory. But god, fuck that we're getting a Cars 3.
Their animation and direction still haven't captured and framed the nuances of human atmosphere that makes the atmosphere of scenes great, so no.
I don't think they use color as well as KyoAni does, and they are pretty hit-and-miss for overall aesthetic. I do like the overall colors and art direction from the first episode of New Game!, however. I enjoyed Sansha Sanshou, and the animation was quite nice, but the overall colors and tone didn't really stand out. Wasn't Plastic Memories also by them? I dropped the series, so I can't say too much about the overall animation, but the colors were also kind of middle-of-the-road.
>>143777973
>nuances of human movement that makes the atmosphere
Well fuck me.
>>143777915
Pixar is shit. Modern Disney is shit. Disney was only worthwhile during their early days.
Top-tier for SoL, meh/shit tier for everything else
>>143777957
Pretty sure people are referring to things like lens flare and such. It's pretty apparent in Hibike Euphonium, but I personally liked it and didn't find it detracting.
Now THIS had bad usage of filters. I also find that stuff like K also used filters in a way that was tacky, whereas KyoAni does it much better.
>>143777957
>kyoanushitters think they don't use filters
>>143777957
>>143777849
I just want to hibernate until Zaregoto and the rest of Owari comes out. There's literally nothing else I really look forward to.
>tfw moeshit will never die
>>143778145
This
>>143778061
Isn't Majestic Prince by them also?
>>143778145
>>tfw moeshit will never die
If dogakobo would frame their sakuga scenes more properly then they'd be on par with kyoani.
>>143778145
>tfw moeshit will never die
>>143778145
As long as those moeshit are shows like the hamster girl anime, keep 'em coming.
>>143776593
>some being exceptionally good
Only if you're really into the particular brand of SoL they're selling at the moment.
Their only show that got somewhat close to being good was Nozaki-kun, but I didn't even like that very much since the gags soon became trite and predictable. Only kept watching for Seo.
>>143778145
>>tfw moeshit will never die
Dogakobo's peak was yuruyuri just because it had the beat staff it ever had. That quality carried over to love lab and after that they lost that level of production quality. I heard that staff disbanded and moved on.
>>143778494
>best staff
Fucking hell.
>>143771278
It is just another moeblob
>>143771912
Holy shit, that's somenobody carestaste you got there.
All of Dogakobo's sakuga scenes is done by one guy.
>>143778544
Not the same anon but SL is based.
>>143779212
Not true at all.
>>143779212
It's actually just one guy that does all the animation.
>>143779279
they've made two good shows
>>143779279
SL is the gonna grow big in the future they're based
>>143779279
SL is shit.
>>143779537
Only good one I watched was Kyou no Asuka Show, but that was a short. Watamote and Tasogare Otome x Amnesia were passable.
Which were you thinking about, and don't say NNB.

>>143776607
It's fun for me though.
>>143771278
The comparison is insulting to Doga Kobo to be honest.GJ-bu season 2 when? Love Lab season 2 when? Nozaki-kun season 2 when? MJP season 2 when?
>>143780521
>those were shit
>i didnt watch them
this nigga
>>143780521
>i know this is shit despite never seeing it
Okay
As much as I love Dogakobo and Kyoani, I would kill Dogakobo for a third season of Haruhi by Kyoani.
>>143780919
Why not a collaboration of Haruhi S3 by Dogakobo and KyoAni?
>>143780919
Mikakunin S2 first.
>>143781139
Holy shit.
>>143781242
>>143771278
Given how Dogakobo likes to use newbies and have the seiyuu sing the OPs and/or EDs of their shows, I guess they're close.
>>143780756
>>143780759
Tell me how anyone is supposed to look at pic related and not think "Yup, this is going to be shit." Or see a show is a parody of a porn game that requires familiarity with its characters. Or read the full title of Shomin Sample.
I'm not blaming anyone who is still watches them knowing they would be shit. But the first anon talked about good shows.
>>143781322
Shomin sample is fun, which is exactly what anyone who read the full title would assume. As for strike the blood I'll just assume you're from reddit since I don't believe there's anyone on /a/ who hasn't seen it.
>>143781322
Strike the Blood is pure guilty pleasure.

They are doing a second season of that shitty card game anime.
>>143778145
>>143782837
Card game?
Maki a qt either way.
Dogakobo have always been really solid, Probably should deserve more credit to be fair but lets not talk silly here.
Peopel overlook Donten nI Warau for Dogakobo because everyone just looks at the comedy SoL's they make.
>>143771278
No, God fucking no modern Kyoani is absolute trash.
In a good way?
Yes.
>>143777957
The funny part is filters don't even have anything to do with animation. Just more proof /a/ is full of know-nothings.
>>143782970
>What is Majestic Prince
>>143778115
>not calling the image early Hyouka focus group
Dogakobo, Kyoani andUfotableare by far the best studios concerning the part of "animation" in anime right now, so in a way, yes, but each of those studios has a problem with their shows for me.
The 1st seems to mostly play safe with comedies and SoLs, and when it tries to do something else with more risk like a drama or an action show it fails terribly. The 2nd most of the time adapts its own stuff now which isnt quite good and their character designs are a bit too similar for my tastes. The 3rd seems to just have terrible production scheduling with most of later parts of their show being filled with QUALITY.
>>143777686
no? that shit would be boring
Doga Kobo is actually good though.
