| It's all in 4:3, early 2000's animation sucked, pre-2000 stuff is usually long and not easily acessible, lots of older tropes didn't age well and i fell that i get most of what i like of current anime. Should i watch pre-2005 anime? Why? |

| Shows with good animation today are still few and far between, so that is seriously a non-issue, lots of old anime has amazing animation so you are just assuming that. Most aren't long and most people have pirated anime before. Lots of tropes are trash regardless of decade. Because Legend of the Galactic Heroes is the pinnacle. |

| another post of ignorance saying whatever decade they dont like has bad animation I see There is no reason as to why you should watch. You should just want to watch anime in general and not care about age Its just dumb like asking for a series that takes places in college and is about art but when given Honey and Clover as a solid option you just say ew no please, it released in 2005 so I can't watch that despite it being what I asked for |

Your claim on the animation part is just straight up wrong. Sure 4:3 sucks, but there are some shows that animation wise look better than most things coming out today. (Eureka Seven, FMA 03, Cowboy Bebop etc.) |

| Of course you should give it a chance lmao. In order to better appreciate what we have now, you should see where the creators today got their ideas and passion from. (Though I agree that early 2000s art specifically was ugly, just watch something older than that if it's not to your liking style-wise). Also keep in mind the differences between animation and art when viewing. Not all subjectively ugly art is badly animated for the time period. |

| What you have is merely assumptions. Don't assume shit. Try it for yourself. Watch some notable pre 2005 anime and see if that makes a difference. For example, Mobile Suit Gundam, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Cowboy Bepop, Full Metal Alchemist etc. Most of those anime are usually the poster children of their respective genre, what's considered to be the best in their genre. |

(also turn A has a blue ray release which bumped up the graphics if its "to old for you." so you literally have no excuse for that one.) |

I couldn't enjoy Cowboy Bebop. As for Gundam and FMA, i might as well just watch Brotherhood and the the Origin films. I can't see the hype surrounding Cowboy Bepop either, I dropped it early on because I didn't see any sense of direction with the plot and felt like it was a waste of time. I literally sat there after the seventh episode I believe and asked myself "when is the plot going to start?" after that I just dropped it. As for Gundam, starting off with Origins is your best bet as to finding an introduction into the universe of Gundam. In fact it's my favorite Mobile Suit Gundam anime out of the entire franchise. I was more intrigued by the political situation Origins introduced the Gundam universe in rather than the mobile suit fights themselves (Although the fights were like a cherry on top and well animated). FMA Brotherhood is the better of the two FMA's imo (because it follows the manga I've heard). I actually watched the first FMA before watching Brotherhood. Although I definitely enjoy Brotherhood more, I did enjoy FMA too. It's definitely interesting to see where both versions of FMA branch out and see how the same characters were presented differently in each anime and how the vision/scope of the characters played out in both versions. It's definitely not a must to watch FMA but if your craving more FMA than I do recommend doing so. |

Like with any time period, there were bad and good shows. Nobody forces you to watch a show, but you might be missing on some good stuff.

For Fate Stay Night? I actually think Fate Stay Night is the most disappointing Fate entry out of the Fate's I finished. I didn't like how the plot essentially focused much of it's attention on two servants and their masters and disregarded a lot of the cast. I certainly felt the other servants could've gotten more screen time (it wasn't like they were boring either). However if it's that good enough to change my perception of Fate Stay Night, I'll give it a watch. I've been craving alot of well animated action oriented anime (with decent plots) lately. |

Although, I get the feeling you created this thread knowing nobody would be able to change your mind and you just enjoy spouting your unpopular opinions like a few months back when you couldn't stop talking about how much you dislike Cowboy Bebop. If that is indeed true (which it may not be), I want you to know that you're a very obnoxious individual. |

But no, Heaven's Feel isn't like that, what it is though is cutting out a lot of the bullshit you already know about the series. For example, UBW repeats a ton of SN dialogue and plot in general, feels more like a soft reboot. Heaven's Feel has very little of that and doesn't show much of what you already know, and just gets right to the point. It does give more screen time to other spirits but i don't want to put too much weight on that since the other movies aren't out yet. |

Saying it has zero buildup is an oversight on your part Your use of Ed and Al being "emo as shit" is not a real argument. How are they emo? Can you name a specific example?? That's like saying something is edgy without explaining why it's edgy. Something being "emo" has no measurement on how broody the brothers should or should not be because it's only a buzzword. Name specific amount of instances on why they are emo and how it negatively affected the plot or development of them. Because of how the homuncli are in the first anime, they are born when an alchemist fail a human transmutation. Lust being ishvalin only makes her a less flat character compared to her manga and brotherhood counterpart. Makes the homuncli more multifaceted and interesting. I don't know how this is a negative. All you've done so far is state either incorrect information or you say something that the first anime did without properly explaining why this isn't good. Like overriding greeds character? How?? |

Lunilah said: _Iconic said: That's a pretty specific thing to put a lot of weight on considering your Fate/Apoc score, which i now presume it's so high because of the wide development it has with a lot of the heroic spirits.Lunilah said: _Iconic said: You should check off Heaven's Feel on your PTW then, you'd enjoy that with the 2nd movie around the corner.It's definitely interesting to see where both versions of FMA branch out and see how the same characters were presented differently in each anime and how the vision/scope of the characters played out in both versions. For Fate Stay Night? I actually think Fate Stay Night is the most disappointing Fate entry out of the Fate's I finished. I didn't like how the plot essentially focused much of it's attention on two servants and their masters and disregarded a lot of the cast. I certainly felt the other servants could've gotten more screen time (it wasn't like they were boring either). However if it's that good enough to change my perception of Fate Stay Night, I'll give it a watch. I've been craving alot of well animated action oriented anime (with decent plots) lately. But no, Heaven's Feel isn't like that, what it is though is cutting out a lot of the bullshit you already know about the series. For example, UBW repeats a ton of SN dialogue and plot in general, feels more like a soft reboot. Heaven's Feel has very little of that and doesn't show much of what you already know, and just gets right to the point. It does give more screen time to other spirits but i don't want to put too much weight on that since the other movies aren't out yet. Yeah I agree with you that it is, but the very first thing that's introduced to you when watching Fate for the first time (that is if your watching Fate Zero as most people are instructed too) are the servants. The servants (and to a lesser extent the masters) make or break the show. Fate Zero had an excellent balance of interesting rivalries between masters and between servants, whereas Fate Apocrypha had an entertaining cast of servants with rivalries despite not having a lot of masters. Regardless it didn't disappoint. Whereas UBW focused much of their attention on the rivalry between another master and servant, sort of breaking the established formula for the series. Which I don't usually mind if a series does that, but it has to be done right. For UBW it wasn't done right and rubbed me the wrong way. Servants are supposed to be way stronger than masters, much so that it was presented in Fate Zero that if a master encounters a servant, it's either run away or get slaughtered. The fact that masters were literally going toe to toe with servants in UBW didn't sit well with me. Not to mention I felt that alot of the potential for development for the other servants and masters was wasted on a rivalry that didn't make sense in the universe in the first place. Also, the rules surrounding the holy grail war were repeated so much it did add to my disappointment. Just curious, what is your opinion of Grand Order? Is it worth the watch? |

_Iconic said: I understand this especially as someone who was instructed to start with Zero, but that didn't bother me much at all. What bothered me most with UBW was how it basically had nothing to actually do with Zero at all and can be watched without it. Nothing overlapped when tons should have. But unfortunately or fortunately Zero was something made after the original source material/1st adaptation and capitalized on it's faults.Lunilah said: _Iconic said: Lunilah said: _Iconic said: You should check off Heaven's Feel on your PTW then, you'd enjoy that with the 2nd movie around the corner.It's definitely interesting to see where both versions of FMA branch out and see how the same characters were presented differently in each anime and how the vision/scope of the characters played out in both versions.

Immovable_Object said: hazarddex said: no it was also the highly contrived "humoculus are dead people plot line." which had basically 0 build up. trying to some how pass lust off as ishvalin lets not forget sho tuckers return from the dead why? because reasons and lets not even do anything with the character other then say hey this Smhmuchs alive again lol. not to mention completely overriding greeds character that was established earlier. making both brother emo as shit (don't get me wrong they had plenty of emo moments in the source material, but they didn't go full on edgelord like they did in the 2003) Tucker never died. He was sentenced to death but was instead sent to laboratory 5 as a test subject. Your use of Ed and Al being "emo as shit" is not a real argument. How are they emo? Can you name a specific example?? That's like saying something is edgy without explaining why it's edgy. Something being "emo" has no measurement on how broody the brothers should or should not be because it's only a buzzword.

All you've done so far is state either incorrect information or you say something that the first anime did without properly explaining why this isn't good. Like overriding greeds character? How?? "made lust less flat." you mean a walking plot hole when it was previously established all ishvalins only have silver hair red eyes and brown skin. lust looks nothing like one. sure but at the cost of greed, Bradley, and Envs character? thanks but no thanks. brotherhood made the hmuculous character much more interesting then 2003 and what made sloth sloth exactly? cool we made Edwards mother a humculous, but completely skipped out on what made the character sloth. it also feel that roses character was forced into the narrative, but then had 0 character development other then looking said the entire anime. even the short lived sloth from brotherhood was more develop then that mess. and don't even get me started on the whinny brat that replaced Bradley as "wraith." good lord i think the 2003 wraith was the first character in fiction i wanted to strangle. they don't even feel like a wrathful character just a whinny brat. also the "main antagonist." had little to no characterization. other then being a creepy old woman. i felt that they never really explained her actual motivations that well. or when she and hoenhiem had time to make that wedlock child that was envy. yet some how envy appeared to be around the same age as edward. the fact that each one played to make out a cut out sliver of the personality that made up the main antagonist was really well done not to mention each character more interesting and poetic to there eventual fates. lust died to a man who constantly flurited with others. gluttony was eaten sloth was killed by those who work hard and by his own slothness. pride was struck down by a prideful teenager and also threw his pride away trying to defeat him. envy died because they couldn't bare being understood and acknowledged. wraith died contented. greed died not wanting anything anymore. also the 2003 totally threw the entire truth character established persona under the bus. the entire fight with greed made no sense from both there perspective characterization. and only made Edward more edgelord near the end. anyway this is not the point of this topic. if you wish to continue talking about it pm me. |

| @hazarddex Bro, as much as I love the FMA manga and Brotherhood, don't use arguments like "it's not canon" when criticizing FMA 2003. Because going by your logic, The Shining is a bad film because it was unfaithful to its source material. |
