| ^Someone like Blade Dance same as me. What I like of it is the beautiful fantasy setting. And ofcourse I like Est enough to put her in my favorite character list and use her as my avatar. |

I'm really fond of Madan no Ou and Blade Dance, no matter how generic they may sound to people. Its fine if anyone decides to pre-drop a series based on the synop but for some with their quick assumptions I feel like they're missing out. all five adaptations announced have barely-clothed loli girls on their novel covers, and they are all some variant of harem/ecchi/romance anime. they are all clearly trash. |
| Of the 4 I've read Madan no ou to vanadis is excellent, Mohou and Blade Dance are decent and Seikoku no Dragner some may like it but I find it really weak. |
Synopsis said: Sounds cliche as hell.One day, however, he sees a girl wearing a uniform he had never seen before, who had collapsed on his school grounds. She is Aiba Mui and her appearance marks the beginning to a series of weird incidents. She once said, "to be honest, I'm a magic user and sorry... I turned you into one too." |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Only read the first chapter of the manga so far, but still seems some what interesting. |

HauntingShock said: or fans these days have different taste compared to (your)the previous generations? Anime would have died long ago if it''s really spiralling down. I mean, who's buying all those BD/DVD? strictly speaking in terms of the types of anime being produced, there is a lot less variety lately compared with 10 years ago. Each new season brings along an increasing number of SOL all-girl moe shows, and the harem/ecchi/average highschool boy shows, yet there is less and less money in shows that escape familiar territory and have no regard for widespread appeal. As for dvd/bluray sales...that is part of the point i'm making. otakus are in general stupid and only care about fanservice and seeing the exact same concepts "reinvigorated" with nothing more than a fresh coat of paint aka same character types, same tired old cliches - only in a different setting (sometimes the same setting will do fine). thus, they continue to buy this shit because it is manufactured for one purpose - to cater directly to their lonely anime-girl-obsessed selves. they couldn't care less about anime as an artform. that is the sad truth. hakazee said: Madan no Ou Deep and Solid Story. much more complex story. well i was referring more to anime. manga and novels are still rife with originality and quality, because almost anyone can write them if they want Mod edit: merged a double post and spoiler tagged a quote tower; please use a spoiler tag if these become huge |

| Finally one without ecchi !!! That's a good news! But still...I'm not really happy with all these LN adaptations,they all seem pretty generic. |
 |
Do it somewhere else. |
HauntingShock said: Do it somewhere else. where else? this is an anime website. where else should i express my anime opinions? |
| Wtf is with all those light novels getting anime. Hopefully at least one will turn out to be good... Mahou Sensou could actually not be that bad, and I like the artstyle most. |

BigSimo said: where else? this is an anime website. where else should i express my anime opinions? It's pointless arguing, they won't listen anyway. Always remember: Asimov said: The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” |

Downgrade355 said: Wtf? 5 harem-ish moe-ish Light novels announced to get an anime at once LOL Looks like the seasonly chart is gonna be even more filled with harems than it already was, dayum japan. ...was thinking the same... Btw, why not make one news post instead of five...? :O |
BigSimo said: Yeah, but also prepared to react to your opinions, particularly if they are ones that are expressed with strong words. like your trash mentality approach LOL.HauntingShock said: Do it somewhere else. where else? this is an anime website. where else should i express my anime opinions? To be honest I would say that the variety is just not so much changed as before but the business model have changed. If anything it can be even argued that there are more variety because the midnight time slot offers a way to do anime that is not as feasible as before, and LN adaptation as well as harem or SoL anime are variety that did not exist so much in 2000 or before. It is just this growth of variety does not suit your "high taste" that bothers you, but this kind of attitude is just narrow-mindedness and utter failure to see how anime as it is - a kind of popular entertainment that has to follow the soci-economic trend in Japan. As for moe trend, it is almost everywhere now and it is just a matter of whether you notice it or not. If this is bothering you you just might as well start another hobby for your spare time. my argument is that these adaptations will suck, and these types of anime are almost always bad, and i am sad that more and more of them are being made while less and less interesting, unique shows are produced. i started the argument because people were disagreeing with me about this. i wasn't wondering WHY these types of shows are successful - i already knew that. The point is those adaptations are never meant to people like you, so just don't act as though if these adaptations did not exist more of the type of work you love would then be made. This is why people disagree with you, seeing you sitting on some high horse condemning people who are so low that they like HDxD or Madan (and worse for liking them because they find the story to be good) just because you think they are "utter trash" (which is a trashy argument anyway). Anyway, I do not see there was necessarily more unique or original shows in the past - it is more like people having "good old days" reminiscence which tells more about how their present (or how they don't like it) than the reality in the past. DraconisMarch said: Well it is not just LOL I wrote in my posts though, and of course those posts do not try to make any argument because the posts I replied to did not try to give any argument but just cheap potshots (yes, your posts are the prime examples) so a reply in kind is only fair, but at least I have the sense to put LOL to lighten it with some sense of humor LOLsymbv said: You know you don't have an argument when you just say this over and over and over again.LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL |

| What five light novels are getting anime adaptations you ask? Pretty much every new LN being translated on Baka-Tsuki with a hot chick on it. Hooray for the future. |
