Concrete Revolutio: Choujin Gensou

The final song.

Can we finally stop to pretend this show is anything more than light 7/10 now that it's over?

Have a bigger Kikko.

You said her name.

Too bad we aren't a hivemind, user.

I'd rate it 9/10 now. I was really fearing how Aikawa would stick the landing, but I loved the finale. It could have used an extra episode to give more screentime to the various secondary characters, but what was done in what we got was still good enough and I loved the overall direction.

Yup, the second season could've been so much better

Nah.
This show is a light 9/10.

In hindsight, everything could be made better once you already know what worked, what kinda didn't and so on.
But as everyone struggles, one can only hope for a better future, and keep trying.

Live adaption when?

Superhumans represent the traits that humanity wishes to have. Strength, bravery, dedication and the compassion to help others who cannot help themselves, to shape a better future for those generations who will come after them.
The desire to make dreams real.

Keep the dream always alive inside of you.

Now that the shitposters have arrived, can we stop pretending it's anything less than a 9/10?

...

Reality is boring.

I can't deny htat.

I-I don't want the threads to go away, Sup Forums.

Part 2 fucking sucked.

No.

Master Jobber.

This, too much filler

One of ya'll has gotta throw me a fucking bone here.

When exactly did Jaguar even earn the trust of the bad guys? When did he convince the good guys he was with the bad guys? Why was anyone watching surprised when he was revealed to be good, when all he's done is range from helpful to mildly obstructive?

"I'm a time cop protecting a future where superhumans don't exist. Here's info that only a time cop could have."

Meme magic makes stupid people go along with stupid plot points, and act surprised because the show told them to be.

Much of the praise for ConRevo part 2 comes from people in denial over how far it veered off course, and how the last 4 episodes weren't enough to salvage it.

You must be forgetting the parts where he readily facilitated human experimentation, joined up with the gov't to hunt down superhumans and bureau members, and built the gov't a bunch of super-mechs. He had also been the acting head of the post-Akita bureau back when it was a gov't agency and had readily participated in a ton of government-sponsored coverups before then.

Found the retard.

How old is she by the end of the series? Probably nearing christmas cake territory is she hasn't already

She's 20 in April 46, so she should be about 27-28 at the end in April 53. So yes, cake.

Still working as a magical girl at this age.

She's not a cake, she has a boyfriend. Her boyfriend just happens to be an invisible nuclear dragon made out of justice.

>made out of justice

...

He will be daijoubu.
The adoptive father of nuclear justice dragon rebuild him.

All of the best robots are daijoubu.

>she has a boyfriend
As far as I can recall Jiro didn't "break off" his relationship with Emi until just as he disappeared so I don't think you can qualify that as him becoming Kikko's boyfriend.

She has someone she loves but it is yet unrequited, so cake.

Here we go again.

>but it is yet unrequited
He never really had a relationship with Emi, she told Emi he couldn't love her forever, he loved how Kikko looked up to his justice, and then he chose Kikko over Emi (that went along with the world choice) and became the embodiment of what she fell in love with in the first place.

I wouldn't call it unrequited just because it didn't end with her in a wedding dress.

I missed the first thread when it aired. Did this happen already?

>Did this happen already?
Not that I recall. Not sure what that user's talking about, specifically.

Truly the worst kind of man. Not keeping promises is the hallmark of a villain.

Sometimes heroes can't keep their promises. Villains make promises with the intention of breaking them.

Very different.

Once again, being a childhood friend means that you lose.

Yeah but it's ok this time because best girl won.

He was actively working at providing new anti-superhuman weapons, managed to hide from everybody he was actually an agent from the future until the last moment and the few times he supported the Jiro gang was by providing them equipment rather than involving himself directly. From the point of view of the government guys he was a pretty loyal dog.

I think he's investigating them rather than trying to revive them.

Someone clear thing up is the Rainbow knight actually the MC?

What for? He already knows how Raito works, since he did repair him back then in episode 3 of season 1, and he knows all about Megasshin's components. Magotake worked for the Ikuta Military Labs during the war after all.

What? No.

Watch the show. Concrete Revolutio is one of those few anime where doing a marathon-session for it works and probably makes it easier for casual viewers to remember plot points, instead of having to wait weeks and even months before a reference to a past episode is dropped on.

I think he's talking about how it all started. When the bomb failed to detonate and created this "alternative universe", it created a dragon shadow all over the city. I guess it means everything ends exactly the way it started.

Ah, a form of the book ends-trope. Makes sense.

In other news, I heard anons whining about the pacing in Hero Academia being too slow.
It may feel rushed but is it actually bad to speed up the pace so that the ending is action packed? Were there lose threads that went ignored that ruined the conclusiveness of the ending?

>It may feel rushed but is it actually bad to speed up the pace so that the ending is action packed? Were there lose threads that went ignored that ruined the conclusiveness of the ending?
Are you asking about My Hero Academia at this point, or about Concrete Revolutio?

After the first episode, it felt like we were hit by 6 episodes of bullshit before they remembered the plot. ConRevo was rushed at the end but they had plenty of time to not fuck up.

>As far as I can recall Jiro didn't "break off" his relationship with Emi until just as he disappeared
>promise me you'll love me forever
>I guess this is the second promise I can't keep
I looked at it as both girls losing anyway.

ConRevo. I should have written that better. Nobody was complaining ITT but in the others I read wishes that it was 12 episodes or that the ski jumpers episode was eliminated to make the ending longer.

Is there a complete chart with correlation of ConcRevo events with real world events and/or toku/anime/manga airings yet?

Emi said in front of everyone that Jiro likes Kikko so there's that.

She's said it multiple times now.

It's just Emifags who don't want to admit Kikko won.

Emi certainly lost because she left for another universe. At least she had the victory of gaining an island with an unlimited power source and saved all her super inhuman crew.
Kikko is stuck as an ageing woman without devil powers but, as consolation, she still exists in the same universe as Jirou.

It was alright, second season was shaky as hell and the ending was kind of meh.

7.5/10

Kikko gets to stay in the world with all of her friends, knowing that Jiro chose her, feeling his presence at all times, and knowing that he'll show up again when the world needs justice. It's not really a "consolation".

>all of her friends
Does she even have any muggle friends?

>Needing anyone besides this lovalbe moral compass
Plus I'm sure she gets along with Earth-chan and Raito. We might see some friends in that spinoff manga about her that tells stories about her working.

They seemed like they hadn't seen each other in a while. Her daruma thing bailed on her. Now that I think about it this concerns me.

Too high for this garbage, more like 4/10. Fedora-tippercore and nothing more

At least she won the bowl in the manga.

Put some more effort into your shitposting.

They should have added more fanservice like this if they wanted to sell BDs.

I can't believe demon queen remained sealed off and they never expanded on literally the main girl's back story.
Unbelievable.

SIT DOWN

How many volumes is the manga? I might buy it.

Oh sure. More episodes to make the ending a little bit rounder is always something that many anime shows could use. The Birdmen episode wasn't to my liking, although it did have some interesting cultural themes about the feeling of being an outsider and the question if you really feel a connection to the current age.
But the episode itself was too Japanese for me to enjoy.

Emi used Kikko's power to defeat Master Ultima.
Power ranking:
The Witch of Tokyo Kikko with the hope and love of humanity > Emi with the stolen demon powers of Sorcerer Queen Hoshinoko > Master Ultima > Other superhumans.
Jiro unleashed is probably on par with Emi + Hell Queen Might, as Kikko implied that she could sacrifice her entire magical power to contain Jiro's form.
But Jiro didn't want her to give up her powers, so he chose to become incorporeal.

>all these shipperfaggots in denial
Justice won the Jiroubowl a long time ago and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it

Wrong. Jiro loves all superhumans, not just Justice.

Justice didn't win the Jirobowl, Jiro IS the justicebowl.

It ends at the second volume which goes on sale on 8/4
There's also another manga which is still going on.

Which one is ongoing and which ends?

コンクリート・レボルティオ〜超人幻想〜
This one ended.

コンクリート・レボルティオ 超人幻想 外伝 魔法少女天下御免！
This one is ongoing.

I give the first season an 8 and second a 7 so I'd go with a solid 7.5/10.

I think the second season could have used a lot more of the time jumping that was in the first season. It allowed for a single episode to tell several different stories with different characters that still managed to tie into one. There's also a brief period in the second season where Jiro seems to be repeating himself to the audience several times and it gets to a point where I sorta get it already, also Kikko kinda fell flat on her face until the last few episodes. I also think the final conflict could have had more build up to it, a single episode wasn't enough for what was essentially a declaration of war.

Overall I think it was a good show. Enjoyable storytelling, great cast of characters and interesting themes to tackle done in a mostly well done way (for an anime atleast).

Oh sweet, the Kikko one is ongoing. Hopefully someone wants to edit and whatnot and it can get scanlated.
