From what I've seen so far, yes. I'm not saying trippy is bad but it definitely won't make 3gatsu better.

No, I mean Shaft has enough series without "trippy" effects on every corner, like Ef, Dance in the Vampire Bund, Soremachi or Denpa Onna. And they have a very big slice of life franchise so all these posts about unexpected studio look like people only heard about SZS and Madoka.

You are missing one point here. Even if Shinbo is listed as the director, most probably he'll just have general control and the actual director will be somebody else.

Those aren't relevant enough. Plus, Akiyuki Shinobu's recent series are nothing but trippy.

That's like saying: Writer A's old stories are really melodramatic so therefore, his new stories have a potential to be like that.

Why did Nisekoi have so many trippy effects when the source material didn't ask for it?

> EF
> Not trippy.

Also frankly I fully expect this to be adapted in style of SZS. That's the only way I can see premise like in the description to even work.
And that's perfectly fine with me.

I think it actually gels pretty well with the style of the manga, there really isn't that much of it relative to say SZS or Monogatari. It doesn't even utilize jump cuts and dutch angles nearly as much as any of his other works.

Sure, but 3gatsu is as serene and moody as Mushishi. Why would people allow them to add extra sparkles to that kind of stuff?

I don't think they will add sparkles if its not appropriate, its not like they haven't produced serious series before, heck their two best selling series are Madoka and Monogatari. The former is absolutely a serious show and the latter has plenty of serious and heavy moments.

I wish there is a Kickstarter for changing studio. Shaft is a great studio but that doesn't mean they are capable of doing everything, nobody is perfect, no one. If you want to see a show like "3-gatsu no Lion" in its most glorious form possible, Shaft would be the last choice you go to.

This hard polarization of opinions on an announcement and studio yet again. The anime fanbase stands forever clearly divided into extremes though I can't help but notice it's all the regular shitposters that seem most happy about the studio announcement for whatever this is essentially proving a couple of things to me.

And shitposters and Shaft fanboys but that's hardly surprising. I haven't read the manga but boy does it not look like something Shaft should be touching just by reading the description and looking at some artwork. On the other hand this is one last chance to prove they can somehow do something besides the usual tired direction, ultra fanservice and cost cutting gimmicks.

I think it's pretty safe to assume they'll just load it up with their favorite people like Hiroshi Kamiya and Chiwa Saito so thake that as you will. Whether they'd fit I don't know, but that's pretty much what you're getting unless this really is a new approach "proving grounds" kind of thing.

You can already tell this is going to result in a really harsh mix of source fans and Shaft studio die-hard fans when it comes air time.

Eh, Kamiyan is...Alright. He was one of the main leads in Honey and Clover as well. I'm rooting for Miyu Irino or Hanae Natsuki to take the main lead. There's no main female in this series, so I don't really care as long as Chiwa fits.. She'd fit the older sister, if anything.

Other seiyuu I want in:
Kamiyan as Rei's fat best friend because he looks like Yato/Morita.
Ai Kayano as middle sister

I'm more worried because this series feels like Mushishi (using this example because you've watched it) and it's so serene. If SHAFT did anything extra, it would just ruin the mood. :/

SHAFT is an odd choice. I don't think they've ever done a straight adaptation without any of their usual flair. So that's worrying. I was hoping for Morio Asaka or the original H&C director, but I'm not that down on it. Shinbo hasn't directed this type of show before so it's only fair to give him a chance. I just hope he changes his style and respects the material.

Wow it's been a while since Shaft picked up an actual decent source material, will definitely watch. It'll be interesting to see if Shinbo will be actually directing or whether he'll stand back as chief director like he always does these days.

Shaft have become quite stale recently in the visual department and I think this is an excellent opportunity to inject some long needed creativity back into their TV series.

Well whoever is producing the show obviously thinks that it does since they choose the staff, although I suppose Shinbou could have gone to the publisher to arrange the production which would mean that he has something in mind.

Either way its too early to make any comments about quality but I'm more intrigued now because its a bit of a curveball choice, it'll be interesting to see how it goes.

The upshot is that SHAFT works tend to sell reasonably well if they're at least decent and they're more likely to produce sequels and complete adaptations than many studios. If it works out well, it could be the best shot the manga has of getting a complete adaptation.

Looking forward to it, thank god, I'm a person who judges something after I watched a little bit of it, all people saying it will be a disappointment, yeah sure with this attitude you can really skip this anime and don't have to watch it or this one guy who already shitposted against the anime year 2016 before the year even started

and can I know why this one guy always insults himself with his comments? Happened here again, that's crazy.

Will it be a typical shaft anime? let's see
Will it be a great adaptation? let's see
Will it be the best or worst adaptation of all time? let's see

Let's wait for the first episode or at least the preview to make further judgement.

The head tilts just don't work in every series, which Shaft probably doesn't understand as they throw them in everything.

Neets not being happy with it is actually a good sign, upping the chances of it becoming more than even more of the same kitschy mainstream stuff.

SHAFT doesn't seem to have many fans outside of die-hard otaku types and trolly people nowadays and I can kind of understand why, it just seems like it took longer than it probably should have getting to that point by a few years, but I can say the same for a lot trends in this scene. A few years ago this news would have probably been received far more positively than just the few people that you'd expect to be excited over this. I'm sure people know exactly who I'm referring to by now.

it means the majority of people who look forward for this series to be animated do not approve SHAFT (that's a great thing).
I'm not saying SHAFT bad studio, but if they're still forcing that sparkle and weird shit animation to all series (no matter what the genre). They just ruining their image even more.
Their style work for some but definitely NOT for all.

For now I can only hope they will go with more 'normal' style (even though the chance is pretty low).


And... F*cking this.
