No more 11 episode shows. Too short.

edit: no, actually, nothing wrong with that so long as the show doesn't feel rushed or shit like that. Crap shows should be 11 episodes, and good shows 23874289375 episodes.
That's better.

Um... are you sure?

I'd like to see anime be more ambitious, and explore new territories. Not that it doesn't have ambition right now, of course, I just want to see more.

Clearly ladyxzeus wasn't referring to that...thing..
Well if she was, then IDK.

but, I agree with ladyxzeus, at least in that by "80's character designs" I mean more realistic character designs.

OH, and Kyoto Animation should not make anime anymore, unless they're going to make another FMP season. No wait, they should make anime, but cut all ties with Key.

WAIT, they should make a sequel to Mars of Destruction. Except make it a 26 episode series, and then they should burn in hell.

BUT THERES MORE.
Dear anime makers,
please be nice to GONZO. LOL
Poor Gonzo :(


edit: to be serious though, I hate seeing advertisement in anime. I've been watching Darker than Black and the pizza hut advertisements are ridiculous. It couldn't be more obvious, and a waste of what could be precious seconds.

The Mars of Destruction jokes haven't died as yet, I see.

Anyway, I'd suggest that they actually pay attention to the fanbase and make anime from manga that have been both received well by critics and by the fans.

Getting animators to pick up a show that is critically acclaimed is hard work in the first place, but lately they've been making anime that not even fandumb would want to watch (two seasons of Asura Cryin'? Really now...) so why are they even wasting money doing this?

I'd suggest that to economise as well, they pick a franchise that will sell big amongst the fans of that particular thing using material that caters both to the discerning eye and to the blind eyes of fans. It will sell, it will be received well, and they won't make any huge financial losses nor would they inflict some other animated terror on the world.

Who doesn't like making fun of bad shows? I mean, when the creators make them, it's obviously not for people to praise them, but rather to include them in various jokes on web forums. Well, that's how I see it.

Excellent point. There have been far too many useless sequels lately, for shows that really do not deserve them. It's either an attempt to milk the franchise (though I don't know how some franchises could be milked, since there's nothing going for them in the first place), or it's just some irrational decision based on a drunken whim...or something.

I think you'll find it's not strictly 'sequels' as they're just splitting a standard two-cours (24-26 ep) storyboard in half, and giving a seasonal break or so between airing each one. It's not like they suddenly decide to make the second part later on, but rather generally planned from the beginning.

I was reading an article about it last year how numerous studios (or rather, sponsors) have moved to this method for several reasons; including being able to give the studios and staff a 'break' to work on other projects, advertising (let word of mouth etc speak of first half, hopefully raise sales of second), and there is the occasional series that bombs on its first half so isn't continued, thus saves them loss of the second. Talking from a purely financial point of view, in DVD/merch sales, not just moe/ecchi trash we all hate, but sells well to otaku (profit is key here). There are other reasons but those three are the main ones.

Mars of Destruction isn't even an actual anime. It's just a video that was included in the PS2 game package as a free bonus. And making fun of it isn't really intelligent.

Agree, there are a lot of anime that have pointless season's, and those anime that deserve new season or manga that deserves to be animated will never be.

Well there you go, I never thought of it that way. Still, it makes you wonder why some studios choose to go on with that second 'season', when the first one was so terrible (Asura Cryin (I haven't actually seen it, just basing this off general reception)).

I didn't even see the laughing at its badness factor in this. If you want to laugh at badness, Queen's Blade comes to mind, but Mars was just awful through and through. I saw it way before people jumped on the, "You have to see this lulz" train. It was bad then, didn't amuse me, and it's bad now, though it's apparently amusing everyone.

Well, there were plenty of scenes that had me laughing in disbelief. And some scenes were so stupid that I found them amusing. Thankfully it was only short, so I didn't see it as reaching the humorless stage. Though I can understand the way you feel.

Make less shows, but better quality overall. Also try to make more anime geared towards older fans since that is what the main otaku audience is (and the $$). Do not put engrish into series anymore, it is terrible.

No. No more shows that are 23874289375 episodes long, script writers need to learn how to actually write a story and editors need to learn how to edit. You can always add in an OVA, but you can never salvage the fact that a show with only enough plot for 15 episodes was dragged on for 50.

Need less tentacle hentai.

Less harem, less pathetic/shy/loser male characters that have a female vocal, less arrogant girls who think the world revolves around them, that's all for now, I think. And I think we could all agree, less fillers. We know producers are just trying to make a few bucks, but at least make it quality, and not endless quantity. I would even say that money has been a curse for anime, if not all entertainment, for quite some time now. For anime, it's either stupid fanservice, mindless fillers, or just low quality of animation that keeps us raging for less, but directors continuing for more. Oh well, the world isn't perfect...

I know I'm likely about the only one who wants this (and not even sure if it's technically possible now), but I really would like to see another traditionally cel-animated series, with the subdued color palette and as little computer assistance as possible. Not a cheap kids' show either -- one they outlay some serious funding to. It just has a look and feel that cannot be replicated.

It'd be possible but would likely cost a great deal of money as cel animation is a near-dead art. afaik Sazae-san is the only series still cel-animated, so the studio that does it (Eiken) is probably the only one still capable of doing it. There may be small independent studios that could do it, but I doubt it these days when CG has been the norm for a decade now. Cheaper and easier = more desirable.
