JizzyHitler said: one of the reasons i like FMA 2003 more is because of the tonal dissonance with the comedy brotherhood has, FMA 2003 knows to stay series when shit gets going. Brotherhood stops doing the chibi shit later on tho, it's just in the first half iirc which isn't that bad since the shit hadn't hit the fan yet. FMA 2003 definitely has much more consistent tone but the actual content is a lot to be desired, at least judging from the first 8 episodes I've seen, they were so much worse than Brotherhood's. Brotherhood did not have so many overblown rape face villains. I would cut off some episodes completely because of how bad they were. |

robis798 said: FMA 2003's storyline was alot better, the villains were far more fleshed out, the tone was darker and did horror way better, worldbuilding was top tier, and it didnt play it safe like brotherhood did pretty much the whole show. The bad part of 2003 was the movie sequel that kind of messes up the melancholy bittersweet ending of 2003JizzyHitler said: one of the reasons i like FMA 2003 more is because of the tonal dissonance with the comedy brotherhood has, FMA 2003 knows to stay series when shit gets going.

JizzyHitler said: FMA 2003's storyline was alot better, the villains were far more fleshed out Well, so far I can't agree, the show so far is sort of episodic and the episodes are really questionable, having some ridiculous one-episode villains, some of them were really blergh, just not interesting or straight up silly. I liked the way Brotherhood got to the actual story quicker because this episodic stuff is really dubious to say the least |

I rewatched the first 22 episodes and I don't know what you are talking about. What episodes are you talking about that were so bad? |

Hm, rechecked, ep 4 and ep 8 were the ones which I totally didn't like, I'm sure that if they were removed nothing of value would have been lost, because those really weren't good episodes, at least I personally thought that those two were very off putting episodes. It's obvious to me that I don't like this version, but I'm really debating whether it's that alone or I don't like the show overall anymore that much. Maybe a lot of the stuff I don't like was in Brotherhood as well but I was just more forgiving back then, I just cannot explain why 2003 is such an unpleasant watch for me |

| How often do you guys think sequels end up being better than their predecessors as opposed to being roughly the same or worse? I'm not talking about split-cours or spin-offs, btw. I mean direct, legitimate sequels/prequels. |

I mean direct, legitimate sequels/prequels. I haven't seen too many sequels that are better. Trust and Betrayal is better than the entirety of kenshin. Second season of mushishi is on par with the first. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. I haven't seen a sequel that is substantially worse, unless we are talking about code geass. |

Zergneedsfood said: gits s2 would count though That's what I was referring too but I didn't feel like going back to abbreviate it. I also didn't count Trust and Betrayal since technically it was a flashback in Kenshin's final arc that just happened to get adapted. |

| ZOE: idolo was amazing yet its rated like a 6 something on mal i swear mal has such shit taste with ovas every scifi ova ive seen thats supposed to not be very good turns out solid |
|
Zergneedsfood said: People are mixed on Monogatari but I'm of the opinion that Second Season is better than Bake and Nise, the arcs in SS are payoff from all of the character introduction arcs in the previous parts.I would say the sequels of Bakemonogatari area superior, but I can't justify that since I haven't seen those either, but just from the rankings, I would probably say that Monogatari S1 and S2 are held in much higher regard than either Bakemono or Nisemono. Also, if Evangelion 2.0 and 3.33 are sequels to 1.0, can I say that they're superiorm? Because they are. Objectively. :D I also like EoE more than the TV series. :> I also agree that EoE is better than the TV series, its such a good way to end. In a similar vein, Disappearance is leaps and bounds better than the Haruhi TV show, its almost like night and day. |
| Oh yea also OreGairu Zoku is better than the first season imo, it cut out a lot of the meh to bad comedy and really cut to the core of the characters and their problems plus fleshing out a bunch of characters quite a lot. TLR:Darkness is also better than TLR and Motto TLR imo since it attempts to have a plot and character development. |
| Pre-ordered Bakemonogatari Part 1! It won't be until Christmas before I get my hands on it though. Part 2 & 3 are tentatively scheduled for January and February of 2017, respectively. @Feaor, are you going to pick it up too or just the Blame reprints? First two volumes are available for pre-ordering now btw. |

Zergneedsfood said: I was actually trying to think of sequels that I liked less than the first season and I couldn't think of too many to be honest. I actually found that a lot of second seasons of certain shows that are more episodic/slice of life/supernatural are a lot more prone to having fantastic second to third seasons like Natsume Yuujinchou/xxxHOLiC/Mushishi(??? wouldn't know)/Aria (???). I would say the sequels of Bakemonogatari area superior, but I can't justify that since I haven't seen those either, but just from the rankings, I would probably say that Monogatari S1 and S2 are held in much higher regard than either Bakemono or Nisemono. Also, if Evangelion 2.0 and 3.33 are sequels to 1.0, can I say that they're superiorm? Because they are. Objectively. :D I also like EoE more than the TV series. :> Well you have to keep in mind that sequels are naturally rated higher on MAL since the people that liked the first season will mostly be the ones who watch the later season, meaning that the site-wide score will be higher even if all the fans rated it the same (or even a bit lower, potentially). That's why I think asking the question is better than relying on rankings.

It's almost enough to make me want to re-watch Haruhi just to watch the movie. |
TripleSRank said: It was my favorite anime movie for a while, until I saw EoE. I dunno if its worth re-watching Haruhi if you didn't like it just to watch Disappearance but there is a good chance you'll like it even if you dislike the tv show since they are just so different. It isn't quite 'darker' per se but its a loot more brooding, serious, and slow paced than the TV series. I've heard that about Disappearance for quite awhile now. It's almost enough to make me want to re-watch Haruhi just to watch the movie. Talking about it kinda makes me want to watch it again, its a pretty long movie for anime at least at 2hr 42min but my eyes were glued to the screen the whole time. |
| Heh. |
 |
| Wow, that was perfect. |
"Hi!" |
| I've been meaning to rewatch EoE now that I've acquired a taste for psychological and "mind screw" shit in the past few years. I'm sure I'd be way more open-minded to it now than back when I was in high school. |

I probably wouldn't mind re-watching it at some point, just not now. |
I think the LNs are published by the same company? Anyway, there are lots and lots of anime references in DRRR whenever Erika and Walker are around. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Ahhh ~ ReLIFE was the SOL/School anime I was looking for. Pretty excited for the upcoming adaptation. Though I wish the main character was portrayed in a lot less 'wimpy' way. He's so nervous it can be jarring, but I wont deny it's fairly funny and gives him personality. I should pick up Jojo again after part 4 airs so soon. |

| Lady maria in bloodborne is a god tier boss fight, its not even the final fight of this dlc but its just the perfect fight, even the build up to the fight was god tier with all the failed subjects asking for her help as you slowly climb the tower to finally face her. and the music fits the mood of the fight so well |

We ban some stupid stuff over here, so don't be surprised. |
| It should be a crime to make a list like that which includes China Cause fuck it everything is banned in China Same shit with Saudi Arabia Or the Bible belt There's nothing special about being banned in any of those places. |
| The AoT one wasn't even anything specific, just everything is banned in China, yet they have the gall to add another China entry. |

| It's already been 6 years since this guy got his own show by doing this |
| Eh. Kanon has been a mixed bag so far. It has a lot of nice character interactions and generally nice moments, but the harem element borders on overbearing, and the comedy is a bit more hit or miss than Clannad's. I can't help but think this could be immensely better if the story just focused on Yuuichi and one girl instead of going omnibus. |
