| I'm pretty sure we all have at least heard of the Montagari series and how Shaft aimed for an abstract art style which led to a decent success. Whether you liked they style or not, it makes sense that they keep the it for the franchise. Now that Shaft has launched some new series/"IPs", do you think that Shaft truly is artistic or just trying to ride the coattails of the Montagari success and copy/paste its artstyle? |
| I liked the way the Monogatari series looked, and I haven't seen any other series that uses its particular art style if there is any. So I guess I'd have to say abstract? |
 |
| Abstract for sure |

| Didn't shinbou do his style for hidamari? It's been long since I watched it but I'm pretty sure it had a lot of styling that monogatari used. |
Lime_ said: skudoops said: Why are you blaming all of shaft? It's quite obvious it's only one director doing it. +1 cmon op, pls Pretty much, except it's the whole Shinbou team signature style. Shinbou, Akiyuki had his own signature style before Bakemonogatari. And they are different from one series to another. I think he is one of the most talented modern directors anime have. |
 |
| Well, its not Shaft's fault entirely. Akiyuki Shinbo is the one responsible. Coz ef does not look anything Shinbou does since he didn't direct it. Too much Akiyuki Shinbou is bad for your health. Watch one of his series once every 3 months to prevent cancer. |
| This is a signature. |
| I'm seeing a lot of Shinobu around here.... Goddamn that Vampire loli is so fucking awesome. OP, I don't care man....Shaft gave us the Monogatari series, they can do whatever the fuck they want as far as I'm concerned. |
_ultima_ said: Artistically recycled gimmicks. Yeah. Shinbou recycles his stuff, but no one else, as far as I've seen, can really imitate his style. |
| Everyone recycles their stuff. The only reason Shinbou gets called out on it is because his shit is the most obvious, and he does the majority of Shaft's shit. Nobody seems to find it lame that JC Staff makes a new "sort of" Harem show thats blatantly meant to imitate Toradora EVERY. SINGLE. SEASON. Kyo-Ani makes the same moe shit every series. The only studios that are wildly diverse in their adaptation are the ones with shit tons of money and personell like Toei and Madhouse. |

The guy who directed Baka and Test came a close 2nd in my opinion. After checking his bio, it made sense. He was Shinbo's assistant. LOL |

Then you followed up with stupid examples that don't make no sense to the point you are trying to make. Yuasa, the Gibli guy and any other famous director with a signature style, recycle their stuff. Just like real life action directors (i.e Scorsese) |

Yeah I love all these people saying Nisekoi is a Monogatari ripoff, when Shinbou has been doing this shit for a decade. As I've said multiple times, Arukawa under the Bridge, Denpa Onna, Nisekoi, Mekkaku, Monogatari, Maria Holic, Hidamari Sketch and all that other shit are all Shinbou. Not to mention a lot of the shows people are creaming their panties over (Sakura Trick, WIXOSS, Non Non Biyori, and Watamote) are made by Team Shinbou guys and are fucking stylistic ripoffs. |

| I think the artstyle is overrated. Kuuchuu Buranko's artstyle and Gankutsuou's artstyle are more artistic. |
 |
| Shinbou's style isn't even an Artstyle. It's an animation style. Fuck. Nisekoi, Denpa onna, and Mekkaku City Actors all look exactly like their fucking source material. Unless you mean the CGI look that Mekkaku Shares with Monogatari, but since its THE SAME FUCKING STUDIO thats going to happen. Every show by Kyo-ani since K-on looks exactly the fucking same. |

I'll never understand how a Director who makes anime that is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from all other anime is unoriginal because apparently he copies himself. >.> |

| Shinbou is getting shit on like everything else that's popular. Once Madoka and Monogatari started selling really well it was inevitable. When Fate/Stay Night sells really well everyone will bash it too. These are the ways of myanimelist. |

 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Was this post made by Kaioshin_Sama? |
| The only True Ending is the Harem Ending. |
| I've never seen the Monogatari series so im basing my thoughts of the Kingdom heart Love square and this New Vocaloid anime. the art styles are different in both so abstract. I feel as though Nieskoi's art is more subdued than Actors. it's probably because they don't want you to miss the romance plot. very well done. |
| It's a cool style, but the only shows that the style added anything to were Monogatari and Madoka Magica. |

| Even if I like the animation, it's getting so repetitive. Shinbo needs to refresh himself up. But without him, Madoka Magika would have been animated by KyoAni. And the witches will look like cutesy moe characters. |

| Directors often have a style of their own. Shinbo gets too much flack for doing what he does. I love his style and there are variances between the series he does. |
| Every time I see a *monogatari series I think the background artist is like 75% lazy as fuck. I think the characters look good and then sometimes everything looks good... To be honest the stupid text flashes and blank color screens annoy me more. I don't understand the praise for Gankutsuou... It looks like a lot of tripped-out photoshop fail to me (or rather a shortcut to do pattern fills). Other anime have done the same thing just not to that eye-bleeding extent. |
| There's no need for all this tension. |
| Its Shinbo's trademark artstyle. You cant really blame him. |

Look at their most recent anime such as Nisekoi and Mekakucity actors It was utter shit! Worse than the manga People valuation were highly influence by their devotion to the success of Monogatari series that made them see it less objective |
