Would you watch an anime news channel detailing live world events?
>>144003689
How would that even work? a big bank of stock-animated "reporters" with each mouth shape required for all sounds in <language of choice, possibly more than one>, with voice actors/actresses and some software to switch between the mouth shapes? except it'd have to be limited animation (just the mouth) unless you want to see the same gestures over and over and over again.
Probably not, but I WOULD read editorials written by cute anime girls
>>144003689
only if it has moe news anchors and isn't run by the left
>>144003689
Yeah, then I might finally know what's happening outside my room.
Cute girls reporting cute things.
I was thinking that you could do this just with that webcam-to-animation software as long as you got decent voice talent. You could even dub over the animation. Well, that would cover the 2D part anyway; you'd have to make the rest of the news cast stuff normally too.
>>144004208
I can get down with this.
>>144004332
That actually might work if it's /a/nons doing it, but I doubt I'd trust /a/'s news coverage to be accurate and unbiased.

>"And let's go have a look in downtown where a Black Lives Matter protest is going on, how's it looking Akari?"
>"THERE ARE FUCKING NIGGERS EVERYWHERE"
/pol/ would find a way to leak into it and fuck it up
>>144005065
A focus on Japanese news with occational mentions of western events might minimize the /pol/ leakage,and the show could be calledNews at 11.
>>144005065
>only people from /pol/ say nigger
I hope this is not what you are implying.
>>144005275
/pol/ has a huge hardon for Japan though.
>>144005065
I think you mean that without /pol/ it would be fucking useless as a news source. The only alternatives would essentially be /a/NN or The Weather Chan. If you want details on current events, /pol/ is the one and only source for news that hasn't been washed by globalists and Zionists.
Comfy 2D weather channel is a pretty neat avenue in its own right though. Take polls to determine which areas should receive focus for forecasting, then have regional forecasts at certain times.
The biggest problem for any venture is either finding girls to voice the 2D, making proper voice changers, or just going with shotas casting the news instead of little girls.
>>144003689
it would be very expensive with today's animation technology unless you did something like >>144003793
it would be shitty
>>144005316
Not really what I am implying. And I don't even mean just /pol/, /a/'s opinions would be pretty damn shit also. Hell most of 4chan has shit taste
>>144005316
/pol/ is just a cancer that spams epic maymays and enjoy turning everything into a politics talk. Why would you want anything to invite those fags in?
>>144005065
That sounds hilarious, fund it.
>>144005065
>cute more girl alarmed by fifty niggers
>fuck it up
I think this is exactly how it has to go, with a good dose of Nip xenophobia.
>>144006826
I'm astonished the auto correct didn't fuck up niggers, but fucked moe.
>>144005275
>News at 11.
underrated comment.
>>144003689
You know what I want? A news channel that only reports good, happy, and generally feel-good shit happening around the world as opposed to violence, war, crappy politics, despair and similar shit.
Is that too much to ask?

Sure. I'm always somehow getting breaking news here anyway. I learned about the fucking Brexit on /a/ hours before it hit my facebook feed or my local newspaper.
>>144003689
I wonder if Sibel Edmonds' Newsbud would have reached its original funding goals if she'd combined it with this idea
Moe saves alternative media
>>144007010
>A news channel that only reports good, happy, and generally feel-good shit
I think regular media already has you covered if you just want to hear Trump talk, although I guess they try and cast him in a negative light.
>>144007037
Surprising that we haven't seen hundreds of youtube channels with weebs using this software and talking in cringey "moe" voice.
>>144007275
>crappy politics
Yeah, no thanks.
>>144003689
That sounds pretty awesome. It'd be awkward when bad stuff was going down.
>>144007333
It's a WIP that honestly shouldn't cost money yet, or at least shouldn't be listed as complete software. The facial tracking, especially when it comes to lips and cheeks, needs a lot of work. Lip-syncing is hit or miss at best, and its trouble tracking cheek movements results in odd looking expressions.
>>144003689
The only way that would be feasible is if it was some kind of "2.5D" CG show that relied on software like what >>144003793
described for the animations
>>144006255
Cuck
>>144007607
>It's a WIP that honestly shouldn't cost money yet
Welcome to steam
>>144007648
That said, if such a show did exist I'd probably never watch CNN again
Would it be dub or sub?
>>144006255
Does anyone have the Willis comic about the relationship between /pol/ and /k/?
>>144007607
That still shouldn't stop many of the weebs from using it, unless it is extremely buggy.
>>144007666
>Satanposter is a /pol/fag.
Now it all makes sense.
>>144007368
>thinking there are policy options better than Trump's
Found the faggot
>>144003689
I already get most of my news from /a/ so why not.
americans out
>>144003689
Yes. If its made by Kyoani and sponsored by rich Soviet communist
>>144003689
>anime news channel
Like some sort of anime news network?
Thanks to Shirobako we already know that realistic office scenarios can still sell well. Coupled with cute girls it's very feasible.
News is also very dynamic in that they can encounter lots of unique circumstances daily so there's a lot of material to go on for every episode.
The question is, what role would be the one that can interact with every other role in the news industry, thus allowing us a glimpse into all of it, like the production assistant in Shirobako?
>>144003689
Something like Euronews, but with a cute avatar imposed over the scenes? Sure, why not.
What about an anime about cute girls reporting on anime world news, like, a short episode, and it's a comedy skit style anime, where cute girls report on news as if all anime were connected in a world of their own
>Now, for tonights top story, a highschool boy is being arrested for assaulting an old man in the streets, according to police interviews the young boy said "My magic sword told me he was the evil emperor."

You don't realize the power off what you just said. Not just magical girls, heroes and the like (like in Conrevo), romcoms, battle harems, silly kodomo shows, and the gritty/gory corrupt series occur as well.
Hell, if you really wanted to, you could even throw in original h-series too and report about how there's been a recent sex boom.
>>144003793
Like every other job circlejerk anime there is.
>Show little of the actual job
>Say it's very fun but requires skill and passion
>Mention a bunch of brand names and specific tools so even the most serious business otaku nods
>Spend the rest of the time showing how the staff happily interacts and how everyone supports the reporter, bonus points for the director being strict but also with a golden heart
That's it.
>>144012527
With the amount of SOL that gets made, I'd say a good chunk of the world is still pretty normal.
>>144012695
But there's also SOL with some supernatural/scifi aspects. Think mushishi or time of eve.
>>144003805
I never understood this meme
>>144011836
>>144003689
Realistically, if they did anything like that, they'd probably be bumpers for some anime block by having a set group of characters report on the different series that air on it. Maybe have the original studios animate the reporter characters running around their world in the bumpers, or just air clips while discussing it as it goes on.

Just wear a light ball suit and superimpose the waifu over it. The tech has existed for years now.
