How much value do you put into visual direction?

How much value do you put into visual direction?

Enough that I make sure not to watch Shaftrash.

Usually hate Shaft but there were some (very few) good shots in Kizu. This was my favorite. Sad a studio needs movie budget to make something even remotely decent.

I value it at about 63.9

None, it's fucking anime
If these same shots appeared in a Nicholas Sparks film adaptation you wouldn't give a toss

Anime is more of a visual medium than film

A lot, however not enough to watch a glorified harem anime with exposition out the wazoo.

About as much you do for these threads.

If only these threads had the same quailty

A lot, I'm a toeifag.

What are you talking about? SHAFT has some of the best composition out of all anime studios.

I disagree.

More than SHAFT does.

One of the more important elements for me. The novelty of anime lies in animation. Visual direction is very important.

The reason I watch Akiba's Trip

I hated Monogatari when I got back into anime as a teenager. Now that I'm in my 20s I love it.

Really makes you think...

...

Akiba's Trip is all about the sakuga and sound direction. Visual direction is pretty standard.

KyoAni - Steven Spielberg
Shaft - Stanley Kubrick
Ufotable - Michael Bay

...

It all makes sense now

>despite having roughly ten times more exposition and internal monologues than film

>no proper PV for Kizu III

Luckily the German screenings happens in two weeks.

>tfw they played it in my city here in the US and I had no idea until the night of the showing

I don't remember this episode of Utena.

Whoops I'm drunk and didn't reead the post enough

I meant Kizu 1

Endless staris are the best visual metaphor commonly used in anime.

Prove me wrong!

Does anyone know what Japanese people think of the third movie?

Not really. I'm an 8 bit fag.

A lot. I'm a WITfag
