Best Studio (poll)

me not see PA Works, me not happy (angry face)

i can already smell the bias against ghibli (another proof this userbase is infested by bigots and outcasts) who is clearly a cut above the rest but whatever... i'd say the ones who come after ghibli are Kyoto animation, Madhouse and Ufotable.

@trinitroglycerin I didn't vote ghibli cause they only make movies so I judge them based on different standards.

also unlike others ghibli IS Miyazak (for the most part), so unlike other studios the story of the movies is also a factor for it.

And personally, I dislike a lot of things about how Miyazaki writes his stories.

This poll is simple:

- Silver Link created Non Non Biyori

- All other studios did not create Non Non Biyori

@APolygons2 1. What is the difference between movies and shows? this is no excuse for badly written stories.
2. And what does that take away from the studio's legacy? I'd say this is another proff of miyazaki's genius.
3. If you fail to enjoy Miyazaki's movies then your childhood must have been quite sad.

@trinitroglycerin

1. movie's are far better animated than tv shows because they have both shorter runtimes and bigger budgets. Movie's looking way better than tv shows is the norm.

This applies to western media as well. There are exceptions of course, but that is generally the case.

2. this is connected to points 3 so...

3. firstly, I never said I don't like his movies. In fact I like almost all the ones that I have seen.

I have seen castle in the sky and princess mononoke at least 10 times as a kid.

Miyazaki is fantastic at bringing you into a world of wonder, a real adventure of the unknown. What I don't like is something that I have come to dislike noe that I am older.

And that's the fact that all of his worlds are half baked. It always feels like I didn't get enough.

I finished princess monoke and the boy and the heron thinking I needed more. I understand why he does this. He creates a story within a world that is far bigger than it, but his work does this to the point of being frustrating.

The worst of it was the boy and the heron. The ending in particular felt extremely rushed. It suddenly tried to put stakes on a world, character, and plot that we barely got to know.

and this doesn't ruin the movies. The lowest score I have given to a ghibli movie is a 7.

But it is the reason for why ghibli movies are rarely my favourite. out of the ones that I have seen Castle in sky is the only one that I didn't I have this problem with.

and if other ghibli movies were like it, I would probably put them as one of my favourites.

all that aside, you sound like a pretentious dick. you don't have to be rude over someone not liking a studio as much as you.

"you must have had a sad childhood"

who says that in a context like this? what is wrong with you dude?

I love studio talk because KyoAni always gets near the top despite the fact that, statwise, they don't actually have a great record.

They don't have a single show rated above 9

They have only a single show rated above 8.5 (Violet Evergarden) that isn't a sequel or movie.

Other than the aforementioned 8.5+, there are only 3 non sequels non movies that are above 8, and only one among the 3 came out in the last decade (Hibike Euphonium).

No matter where you cut it, these are shit numbers. Somehow KyoAni remains beloved despite their titles not doing much numbers lol
