Its funny how ppl called it overhyped when it did the trope right. It kinda reminds how Fate/zero, Log Horizon and Steins:gate start was, a slow start. |

e how this show isn’t popular as it definitely deserves a place among the top 50 on MAL (even though some other anime among the top 50 just don’t deserve that hype compared to 86…) Bruh. Don't bring ratings and rankings here. Things will start to get toxic then. And yes, it's been great so far, and will end great as well. |

As a LN reader, I'd say it's consistent with it's greatness since episode 8 of first cour. The thing is many people are now slowly getting used to the elements in the show and appreciating them as they should. This is the magic of a good novel adaptation (Other example: Monogatari series). For mangas, it doesn't happen, because the style and techniques are understood early on. |
"All truth is meaningless. In the end, 'meaning' comes from the mind of each individual human. Even when there is a single truth, it can mean different things to different individuals. The truth has no meaning in itself!" - Erika Furudo |

The directing has many symbolism, parallels and subtle hints to potray what's the character's thinking at the time. You may see Lena's an annoying and naive girl who whined all the time and not seeing how much she tried to change and finally breaking the limit. You may see Shin as a stoic character only and not noticing inner turmoil in his heart that slowly eating away at him. Or 86ers could come out as ungrateful children soldiers that didn't accept peace, but in truth they represent what war vets experienced in life. Or how the anime tried to show you that war isn't something you cheered on by exposing eugene's death, which you don't even know what killed him, where he died and how useless his death was. All those are provided by directing, and you may or may not miss it during first time you watch. Unless you don't want your opinion to change in the first place, then I don't have anything more to say to you. |

Most of the time with animes with a part 2, part 2 has the most improvements about them, like Re:zero. Most people don't like part 1 of season 2, but some like how part 2 was of that season. I want to still give this one a try. As for re-watching it, I just don't see why my thoughts would change. I remember part 1 and what happens to everyone. Yes, it's one of that life is unfair, and Shin takes on a great mission to bring death to those on the field so they don't have to suffer from the enemy. Still, they could make things less obvious. |

The way the director works here is the cat's pajamas most of the times. It's just amazing how much love and dedication the studio put in this anime. Then this is subjectional, but if you enjoy the Sawano tracks, that's an also a really good aspect of the anime. Sure there might be people who dislike him or the songs in this particular anime, but they are the minority. These are just some parts why people enjoy this anime, but I hope it shed some light to your problem. |

animedude1287 said: I really like the story but it's nothing new. I've seen similarities in several aspects in other animes of the genre. I think people think it's amazing because they haven't watched a lot of anime to be able to compare or see the similarities. I myself think it's very similar to some Gundam series and I confess that the way 86 is written is very much for the younger audience of this current generation, with a lot of drama, focus on character and romance as well as an attractive waifu.mimisannn333 said: animedude1287 said: UserAnonymous117 said: I still disagree.

I want to still give this one a try. As for re-watching it, I just don't see why my thoughts would change. I remember part 1 and what happens to everyone. Yes, it's one of that life is unfair, and Shin takes on a great mission to bring death to those on the field so they don't have to suffer from the enemy. Still, they could make things less obvious. Well it makes so great for other people that the anime tackles a lot of heavy social topics from racism, segregation, war-veteran PTSD etc etc... that we usually don't really experience from a lot of anime. Now you can argue wether the show tackles these correctly or not is up to each person. Most of us think that they are pretty spot on. There was even a war veteran who made a post in reddit about how personal 86 is to him. You can read it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EightySix/comments/q6nk29/86_through_the_eyes_of_a_combat_vet/ Also if you know the LN, then you can enjoy the way the studio decided to adapt the books, since it is one of the best adaptation I've ever seen in my life. The way the director works here is the cat's pajamas most of the times. It's just amazing how much love and dedication the studio put in this anime. Then this is subjectional, but if you enjoy the Sawano tracks, that's an also a really good aspect of the anime. Sure there might be people who dislike him or the songs in this particular anime, but they are the minority. These are just some parts why people enjoy this anime, but I hope it shed some light to your problem. Never said that only 86 does it, I said not many anime. Also you only mentioned PTSD, while I saidd like 2 other social issues that 86 tackles next to ptsd and reintegration to society. So once again read what I wrote, then only reply me once you understood what I've wrote. You are right. Sorry for only mentioning 2 of the issues you mentioned but I'll repeat that they are recurring themes in mecha series especially gundam. Furthermore, it has 1500 series mecha cataloged in mal, and they are little seen or appreciated. Segregation and PTSD of soldiers is a recurrent theme, where the political game of countries always ends up harming the poor and sacrificing a minority for a grand ideal or goal, and then usually a mecha/soldier with the power to change the world enters. |

I don't hate it or anything. I'm just not seeing what makes it so great. What am I missing? 86 anime is designed to be rewatched. The directing has many symbolism, parallels and subtle hints to potray what's the character's thinking at the time. You may see Lena's an annoying and naive girl who whined all the time and not seeing how much she tried to change and finally breaking the limit. You may see Shin as a stoic character only and not noticing inner turmoil in his heart that slowly eating away at him. Or 86ers could come out as ungrateful children soldiers that didn't accept peace, but in truth they represent what war vets experienced in life. Or how the anime tried to show you that war isn't something you cheered on by exposing eugene's death, which you don't even know what killed him, where he died and how useless his death was. All those are provided by directing, and you may or may not miss it during first time you watch. Unless you don't want your opinion to change in the first place, then I don't have anything more to say to you.

That's maybe true, but you need to see that some mecha may tackle 1 or 2 issues that 86 has, 86 tries to do a lot of them at once. Also the only Gundam that has very similar theme as 86 is Iron-Blood orphans. Which was aired back on 2015. The another mecha anime that has a very similar tone is Code Geas, but that's even older the IBO, as it is from 2008. Going back to gundam, its golden age was back in 1990~ with seed and wing or zeta(which is even older tha the 90's). A lot of anime viewers weren't even born yet. And since people tend to gravitate towards newly released anime you can see why 86 is getting attention now. In this year not many mecha anime was released, the only popular I can think of is the SSSS.Dynazenon which didn't really had a dark tone. |

Are you saying that other posters aren't allowed to say they think it's great until they've persuaded you!? And I'll bet you missed a ton of subtle references in the first season, I found re-watching a few times very rewarding, but if you think one run through is enough well that's your loss. But at the end of the day what you hate, like or love is entirely personal to you and probably has little to do with any objective evaluation of the show. So you go on "not hating" it if that's your thing. |

animedude1287 said: Fair enough if you want to give a try. As for your 2nd paragraph, it's more like of the beauty of the directing rather than things or story that is told to you that you say 'obvious'. Example: how Lena bought different flowers after asking 86's real names, Lena's always alone when she's communicating while 86 are always together, Lena redecorate her room in 2nd cour, parallelism between Lena and Shin on ep12/13 when they got theirselves ready, one in bright room and one in the dark and many more I can write an essay of them. It's something not everyone can appreciate, so I understand if you find the anime mediocre or nothing new, but 86 has movie-like directing that is unusual for an anime and it's thought provoking.mimisannn333 said: animedude1287 said: UserAnonymous117 said: I still disagree.

Plus I like both MCs and this anime relies heavily on the character, so that's probably another problem if you can't relate or like the MCs. |
