Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite Episode 1 Discussion

pretty interesting story, but the art style feels lackluster coming from madhouse. It's just so plain on top of the direction and visuals that are pretty average. I'm mainly here for the story anyway.

@SideCharacterKal probably because of the director. He directed Parasyte before and thats a well animated series but it looks plain sometimes too.

Well, looks like most of the atheists here are taking it as being fact. Quite funny, they watch a random uninformed tv show and take it as fact; pretty much the same thing they accuse theists of doing 😄

A little cringe in some dialogue, and I wish it was a bit more historically accurate. However, it's a show that actively shits on religion knowing that it's a danger to science and human knowledge, and it's not an overhyped shounen with nothing of substance other than good animation and characters with fashion style. Those two things are definitely a very personal plus for me so I'll give this a shot

Watched the first episode because there was a lot of hype and praise on ledit about this title.

Have to say I feel quite disapointed, I was expecting something more thorough in terms of cinematography and animation (coming from Madhouse), but it was quite average and even bleak on some parts (the static panning shots in the very first scene and the bubbly almost shoujo background effects when Rafal was acting in a joyful manner), I do have to admit that the backgrounds do look quite detailed though. Kinda felt that the edge was the most important asset of the whole episode, and that's no bueno in my books.

Can't help to feel that whoever was in charge of the cast went for the most derivative choices, Tsuda Kenjiro as a ruthless inquisitor and Hayami Show as a copycat of his hateful priest role from fate series.

I'll go for the 3 episode rule and see if it's something worthy of my time.

Thanks for the detailed explanation @Cersil on all those historical innacuracies. I did raise my eyebrow when I saw Rafal carrying a whole book on his own on the streets and seeing a literate door guardian reading a tablet.

Good to see an accurate depiction of Christianity without all the Church propaganda.

However: that wasn't "blackmail", that was just threatening.
