vooidt said: I disliked this anime. No... I actually hate this anime, I'd argue. But after looking at your replies to the others, you have my respect. You handled angry comments unlike many MAL users. I respect you so much, man. You sir, have a good day! Thank you man! I think this way we can really get to discussing things, even if it ends with differing opinions. At least we can achieve a level of communication and some understanding. demision said: yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head. it shows thisack really well, and if I ever wanted to watch this show again, I would watch it for the themes you describe here. Excellent! That is so nice to hear. Its funny it took me writing that first thread and then reflecting on it to realize what affected me emotionally was happening episode by episode right before my eyes. I wasn't giving it much thought since most of DiTF is 50% child drama and 50% mech battles. Its only in key episodes that you really find out what the hell is really going on. Its a pretty trippy and unconventional way of presenting a story. And that would explain some dislike for the show and how its structured overall. soleiltuskki said: Unfortunately, DitF just wasn't for me, but I appreciate the insights on this and your last post! Shed some light on the things that I noticed but may have kept in the back of my mind when watching it. Also, I have so much respect for you for responding so kindly to even those who are saying mean things. Glad you found an anime you really enjoyed :) Thank you for the kind words! Sharing my thoughts on DiTF and engaging with everyone here at MAL has been fun and interesting. I am very glad that in this manner I can also show the different layers to this show I hold dear. That said, I hope you find yourself revisiting DiTF some time.

You can better enjoy and appreciate things this way! I guarantee it, if you don't already know. :) |

Lets just say that I'm blown away and cant stop cheesing from how happy I am of experiencing it. I see the occasional parallel between DitF and EVA but the shows are still pretty different as far as I can tell. And I feel I'm appreciating it for different reasons. I expect the same will happen with Gurren Lagann when I get to it! So hold on while I finish EVA which I will have a lot to say when the time comes.

Ditf is exceptionally good no doubt. |

You bet your silly pants I will! I am 4 episodes into EVA and already in love! Also, thanks for reading all that! I'm glad you took something away from it.

CynicalDiogenes said: I respect your experiences in watching the shows. In my opinion, experiences in consuming a particular media is an important criterion in rating and recommendations. I don't feel the same way though regarding the show, to me the show is a mecha show with a lot of wasted potential. Thank you, and to that I would say that its likely the show resulted in being something totally different than some expected. |

Mantron said: Well, it's been a long time since I watched it. So I won't be able to tell much. The main thing I hated were the characters and the ending felt too much rushed especially the last 4 eps. It has been a while for a lot of folks, and so it would be difficult to discuss in detail. I do get that. Most of the characters in DiTF besides the 2 main characters have very limited supporting roles. Understanding character core design and purpose can better help see the focus of a shows story. As for the last 4 episodes, I think a revisit could lead to fresh perspective and newly found appreciation for them. That's what I think. It's all about posing yourself questions (or asking online, on a thread like this one) why the episodes led up to what they led up to, and how that might make sense thematically to the overall story. What if for example you care deeply for multiple characters that have large roles in a story? Well that’s the point where you know the shows not for you. Its possible that it can be, but you would have pick the show apart to find your appreciation for it. tobyih said: Love how much effort you put into this post, i went through a phase similar as u did right after finishing it, I was hoping Eva would deliver a similar feeling but it left me depressed for days after the last scene of the movie. Eva is in my top 5 anime of all time but it did not connect w me half as close as how Ditf did, maybe it’s because i connected w the characters way more so I experience the events they are experiencing. Me writing this now makes me emotional, remembering what I been through with the show, how it was an emotional rollercoaster. Thank you for this post. Glad to see you related with my write up. I made this post as much for myself as for fans like you. I totally get where you are coming from; you certainly empathized strongly with the characters. Thanks for reading. I am currently watching EVA; its fantastic, but I can the see its dripping with dread. Very fascinating, and eager to see where this leads to. |

I have literally never seen another anime that is so hated as Franxxx, especially in the community of my country (Russia), it is difficult to express my admiration for this work when everyone hates it and can offend just for the opinion.

Better to skip the show entirely if thats the case. There are many shows where dubs would make me dislike a show. This is one of them. 100%. Overall reception in Japan was a lot more positive and its no wonder why. Ever seen Cowboy Bebop? Great dubs. What about Samurai Champloo? also pretty good. Konosuba? Fantastic, actually I am sure they studied the original japanese voices because they matched very well! Spy X Family dubs? mostly ok, but the children sound off; the voice actors playing the dubbed children in Spy X Family sound like teens and not children. Because of this the comedy is completely destroyed for anyone watching dubs. Its a shame tbh. I think people need to realize when its a good time for subs, and when dubs are acceptable. Dubs can break a show as I see it because the shows tone can easily wane from its original intent. The difference is a lot more than people realize. So yeah, not all shows have bad dubs, but most arguably do. If anyone for example watched Darling in the Franxx dubbed and thought it was cringe, boring, or corny. Id be compelled to agree with them. Attack on Titan dubs are probably hot trash too from the bit I heard. Why does Eren's Titan sound like a Teradactyl? Weird AF. |

But it should be said that lot of the detail and charm from these anime shows are highly dependent on the original japanese voice work. This is not always the case, but often times its at the heart of the show. Worst case scenarios are that not only is the show dependent on japanese voices, but that the dubs are half assed. This is generally so unacceptable I'd just outright recommend skipping the show altogether. |
