Thoughts Spring season - AotS

Now that the last season ended for good, what are your thoughts about it?
It's pretty much clear that Kabaneri was technically the AotS since it applied so much artistically, but which series was your personal best of the season? I'd say Flying Witch because it was really comfy and fun.

luluco was aots

...

>It's pretty much clear that Kabaneri was technically the AotS since it applied so much artistically,

If you mean technically as in animation terms, the animation was often times garbage with crappy stills all over the place. If you mean in a rules sense, its still shit because art style and animation are only a few of many qualifications needed to make an anime great. Story is one of them, otherwise a beautifully animated ball rolling down a hill would be AOTS.

...

conrevo was aots

I will never understand this meme.

>technically the aots
>applied so much artistically
Did you really think that these statements sounded intelligent?

ushio to tora was AOTS and is most likely AOTY
There is no other competition

Sounds like an argument, something you don't have.

This.

Sup Forums is retarded.

>It's pretty much clear that Kabaneri was technically the AotS since it applied so much artistically
> I say smart thing guys do I fit in?

What is yours?

>quoting OP
>saying anyone is fitting in
Heh, made me smile.

>A good-looking anime with great music
>starts with a strong first episode
>everything after is mediocre, boring garbage
>strong girl just gets kidnapped anyway and main guy has to save her from gay guy, the most cliche and generic thing in Japanese fiction ever
>ending is absolute shit

Kabaneri had amazing potential. But the writing was awful. Of course, waifufags and hipsters will still like it. But it's definitely not AOTS.

>It's pretty much clear that Kabaneri was technically the AotS since it applied so much artistically

You can't make this shit up.

>the ending was bad
such poor bait

How was Kabaneri even artistic?

please don't even bring up the ending, even the fanboys hyping the show couldn't pretend to like it

Macross delta. Episode 13 was every reason to watch macross tied into a single episode it was the best single episode since Haikyuu S2 episode 24

Flying Witch was clearly the best show last season.

It wasn't an argument, it barely even makes grammatical sense. Clarify what 'so much' refers to and then maybe it will be an argument, as is it's just waffle meant to sound smart despite the lack of substance.

Sansha Sayou was animated better than Kabaneri and that show was generic garbage adapted from a 10 year old manga.

Kabaneri was fun, but only because of how shit it was. No where near AotS.

You really sound cool there, but did you really think that these statements sounded intelligent?

>AOTS
No. Kabaneri dropped the ball completely after the first three episodes. Only reason I kept watching was muscles-chan and gaijin-san.

I'm just asking for you to expand on your supposed argument, if this is your response then clearly you can't.

>you
I'm you schizophrenic autist.

>Sounds like an argument, something you don't have.
The retarded ramblings of an ESL can't really be considered an "argument". Like this
>applied so much artistically
What did he mean by this? I assume this statement refers to the character designs, because it sure as fuck isn't referring to the animation. The show had far more usage of still frames, speed lines, and other cost-cutting animation shortcuts than necessary, not to mention the mediocre cinematography. If that statement is referring to the plot or characters then that's even worse, because the majority of the cast had no real development or characterization beyond a basic level and the plot did nothing to distinguish itself from the typical garden-variety shounenshit. It even had fucking ki blasts and auras.

Be more specific and clear in your posting next time.

Yeah, this is normal with squirrel-attention-spawn people.

Its funny how you think this was AOTS but the threads were as dry as they come.
>hurr durr basing a show on threads
Pretty much tho. There was nothing engaging about Kabaneri at all. Animation and music were pretty mediocre. Plot was fucking stupid and the characters will be forgotten besides maybe the 12 year old.

Tanaka was the only 9/10 this season
Follow by Luluco, Flying Witch, Kiznaiver, and Sakamoto as the 8/10's

0/10 bait, you are really bad at this.

Trying to keep this sinking ship alive. Just stop user.

kabaneri was not harem or homo or dyke or melodrama.
so yeah it's aots

>this pic
>unable to read and comprehend a simply sentence
You are fucking cancer.

I agree with Kabaneri being AOTS. Distant second place would be Macross Delta, probably.

Pretty much this.

Did anyone else think Kabaneri was really boring? Like I ended up dropping it for a month before Sup Forums started freaking out about the ending, and even then I'd pause like five times an episode because I was so disinterested in MC-kun ki blasting trains and the macross knockoff villain trying to kill everyone.

it was really good

me too mate
when they spent 2 episodes trying to take crap out of the bridge I just said to myself "why I'm even watching this?"

It was a bit boring until Biba's wild ride started.

You didn't even watch it, retard.

He's talking about the crane episode where the fucking zombie titan shows up. Sounds like you didn't watch it.

>no you
Kill yourself.

of course as always

Pretty sure I watched this crap you retard

You are retarded. You didn't actually watch, just passed through the episode.

Easily AOTS, anyone who says otherwise i literally in denial, nothing comes close to the simple but fun action show that is kabaneri.

Funny how people don't even have arguments to disagree so they just say "waaah it was shit I swear!!"

Anyone who thinks Kabaneri is AOTS may suffer from retardation.

See my point here No argument, just buzzwords. They are really brain damaged.

Pretty sure I watched it, retard

Ok what happened in ep 9?

Here we go them
> Art is just plain shit after ep 3
> designs are shit save for main boy and main girl
> action is boring since they are fighting grey blobs with no personality and they aren't a treat since you know no one relevant will die
> pants in head moments like mc making a gun that already exists
Is that enough, retard?

Sorry guys, but you and I know that JOJO is clearly the AOTY.

I drooped this turd at episode 7
I would I force myself to watch something that I didn't enjoy for half of its lenght?

the season was mediocre, if one says one show was aots the show is probably barely enjoyable, jojo was quite good, kabaneri started good but wnen dowhill pretty fast, sakamto was fun and there were some slice of lifes oks at most( can say much about them because i don't like this genre much)

Is that the episode where the 12 year old pretends to go to the bathroom so she can open the gate for the knock-off macross delta villain's group to kill everyone in the train station? Still a garbage fucking show.

It's pretty clear OP is a faggot since he applied so much faggotry

>Story is terrible, if you think otherwise, you are either underage, or you haven't seen enough good anime to know what a good story is.
>Character are shit, bad development and no depth in them. Generic as fuck.
>Animation-wise, it's meh. You literally fall for the "particular art style so it's good". There's actually nothing special in the animation in Kabaneri.
>Music is Sawano. If you don't understand what's wrong here, kys.

Need more?

the art style and character design isn't even particularly good outside the two main characters
it is a terrible anime and I had high hopes for it, but I will be the first to say I was wrong and it was shit and I sorry I recommended it after the first episode.

You posted the wrong anime, user.

>pants in head moments
That's about one of the few things left to enjoy these days. What's with people actually buying into hype? Especially on Sup Forums of all places where disappointment is the norm and tastes are confirmed to be absolute shit.

>I recommended it
Yeah, at least you learned your lesson faggot.

It is not good pants in head
I was hoping the train to turn into a bad cgi mecha and fight a giant zombie horde that turned into a giant zombie
Now that's good pants in head

You got super fighting robots instead and you're still not satisfied? Unbelievable.

>Story is terrible... you haven't seen enough good anime to know what a good story is
Not good =/= terrible. Kabaneri's story certainly wasn't good but it's nowhere near terrible. It's extremely mediocre with a decent first couple episodes.

>Character are shit, bad development and no depth in them. Generic as fuck.
Generic =/= bad. Again, if something isn't overtly terrible you wouldn't call them shit but mediocre or average. Also, Mumei and Ikoma, our main characters, received more than ample development and arguably Ayame and Kurusu as well, though to a lesser extent. I will agree most side characters were fairly boring and Biba plus his squad were awfully written.

>Subjective opinion about animation with nothing to back it up
You could at least point out what you think is wrong with the animation. The art style I believe deserves praise is certain regards, though its oily look sometimes turned me off. The effects and in particular explosions were very well animated, and many of the fights were quite solid in the animation department. Definitely above average.

>MY TASTE UNGA, YOUR TASTE BUNGA
Try a little harder. Sure, Sawano's sound doesn't differ from work to work but it's hardly badly produced and suited the series well.

Also
>unironically using kys
I want underage b& out. Try less hard to "fit in" by being an annoying cynic.

Aots was Joker Game.

>Kabaneri
>aots
jesus christ you're one of those autists who's absolutely taken by all the moving colors. The animation went to shit after the first few episodes, and the plot went when Biba was introduced in such a shitty manner. Not to say the story was the problem, it was the execution of it that was absolutely trash. Also, Mumei turned from besto to god-tier levels of autism real fast, 0 to 100 nigga real fuccin quick. clearly at 5/10 AT BEST and being nice about it, otherwise I'd say 3/10. Looked pretty and promising but failed to deliver, or better said it trainwrecked.

Kabaneri best original and AOTS too. Sasuga WIT and Araki, all they do is win

Honestly, its really hard for me to say. Usually I can narrow it down between at least two shows, but this season I'm torn between ConRevo, Flying Witch, Luluco, Kiznaiver and Tanaka-kun. Though if I had a gun to my head I'd probably pick Flying Witch because I don't think I ever watched that show without a stupid ear-to-ear grin on my face. But everything I listed had its merits in my opinion.

Now that the season ended 2 weeks ago yes

It's really just gotten too dumb for me lately, far outweighing any benefits the anonymous system of free flowing discussion might have. Too many of the same threads every single day, too many people having no idea what the ever loving fuck they are talking about, too many obviously fake opinions being thrown out for replies, too much shitposting period. No new ideas being presented ever in pretty much the last calendar year. Unless something significantly changes by say the end of the month than just fuck it all really. Gonna give the newer mod staff some time to see if they can put in some work on getting rid of the worst of the worst garbage threads but not holding my breath. This was at one point the last anime related board I could sort of tolerate strictly because of anonymity not having to deal with any of the typical forum politics but it's no better than anywhere else nowadays and is somehow succumbing to stupid politics with the whole fuck every other board and find the AOTS and WAOTS crap. I don't know I just think I can't do how mind rottingly dumb the anime fanbase is in the 2010's every single place I try to go. It kind of gets what it deserves with a lot of the trash shows coming out lately.

This person is the person talking real sense here. Only not obviously fake as shit opinion in the thread

I legitimately believe in the summer meme and I'm pretty sure they're the cause of all the AOTS, WAOTS threads every single week for these past seasons. The increasing number of circlerjerk threads around is also getting on my nerves even more so than the generals.

That said, I am past the point of believing it will get any better later in the year. Summerfags from a few years back are probably still posting retarded shit and will simply attract more of them as time goes by.

I'm not even joking.

Jojo is objectively AOTS. David is getting better and better and you can tell they love Part 4. The pacing, music, and VA is perfect.
