Anime/Manga - Discuss Japanese cartoons and comics here; NO CULTURE WAR DOOMPOSTING!

I just happened to find out that Anime Awards 2023 is a real thing, but then I found out that 9anime has their own awards show and I saw this on my screen:

In what world is Shikimori the worst anime to them?

And why would you put The Rising Of The Shield Hero Season 2 in the same breath as Rent-A-Girlfriend and leave the bunch of unknowns to dust so no one will ever hear of the probable obscure anime on the list?
ShieldBro S2 was bland apart from few things here & there. Plus, Redo of Healer came in & prove how a Healer Revenge Isekai series really should be, on top of the Predditor-tier seethe, & brainlet Twittard takes it generates.

Rent-a-thot is shit, everyone knows that. IDK why Shoot! is there, but I rarely watch Sports anime anyway.

But yes, I can't say why Shikimori is there, it doesn't seem like a bad show.

clearly they didnt watch the biscuit hammer anime (and that's a good thing!)
 
I've begun watching Bocchi. What can I say, Bocchi is literally me

Slightly off topic since it's manhua but It Starts With a Mountain absolutely needs a good animated adaption. Even though it's a side character, it has a character going from being a complete pussy early on in the story who then turns into an absolute giga chad over time, which is something I love in any story telling.
 
New Trigun show is going to cause a lot of butthurt. Personally I think it looks like shit and like a chinese bootleg pixar movie.
Oh, dude, I watched the 1st episode of POS. The neon colors, the bad writing, and the art style look like a PS3 game. I know there will be retards who'll eat this shit up because "Durrr..Dis made by studio Orange! Dey be gewd" but holy crap this is just terrible.

Thanks for the confirmation, I knew it'd be shit from the second trailer.

I kinda get why the director said how the MCU was their biggest inspiration because holy shit does some of this dialogue sound like it wants to be MCU-type writing. Also, Meryl's whole character in Ep1 has been "REEEE!!!! IMMA MAKE THE GREATEST SCOOP! I'LL BE THE HEAD OF DIS NEWSPAPER COMPANY!!! JUST YOU WATCH OLD DRUNK MAN!!!" , the coloring really doesn't work for the atmosphere of what is supposed to be a grungy/dirty Space Western and the animation goes between "Oh hey, that doesn't look half bad" too "Why are we locked into 20FPS?!"

The first and most obvious red flag was that they were remaking something that did not need a remake. What could they do better in modern times, exactly? All they've done is downgrade Vash's guns, downgrade the supporting case, and make the animation look ten times cheaper. Cel-shaded is almost never an upgrade from hand-drawn.
 
The one thing I'm curious enough about to follow this shit show is whether or not it'll adapt parts of Trigun Maximum or be a straight remake of the 98 anime.
I might put money on the later because Maximum is pretty much a completely different series then the original anime, its leans more sci-fi then western, is a bit more edgy, and has a decent bit more gore. Not sure which version I prefer its been a while since I read or watched both.

It's definitely not a straight remake, they've already changed several things like replacing Milly with some drunk guy. Stampede seems like its own separate adaptation but will probably have more in common with Maximum.

That's what I'm dreading, there gonna add some of the stupid bits of Maximum without the fun. I kinda think they redesigned wolfwood to match his actual age in maximum (iirc he's supposed to be 16-17 in the series) so I 'm might bet on Livio/Razlo showing up and bits of the Eye of Michael subplot

Watching lain rn. Can't remember who said it was complete shit and boring in response to some troon that applaud it.

But it sure got me curious. Almost done no spoilers
