Why does anime do this thing of only having character react at all when someone finishes talking, god damn it's so annoying.

It's called "lack of budget".

I guess that has has something to do with the fact that nips suck at acting.

But why not react sooner since they are gonna do it anyway? Instead of 6 seconds of staring it's 3 seconds of staring and 3 seconds of reaction.

To reach the 20 minute quota

Watch Gundam Reconguista in G

The characters move all the time when talking
Shit is very realistic

If only the conversations themselves were realistic.

>gundam
>realistic

Because verbs go last in Japanese?

Thats not the point you faggots

The characters move and do other shit when talking
They dont stay static all the time

This happens in all scripted television.

True but you can at least look at someone when they start talking.

Why do western tv shows do this thing of having an actor read their lines as their talking, god damn it's so annoying.

To be fair, it's pretty bad if you have to read from a script when you're actually filming the show.

I notice it all the fucking time now and it seriously annoys me. I rewatched LOTR recently and noticed it a couple times there too.

Gintama did a pretty good job avoiding this.

The speed of sound is much slower in Japan.

Reconguista in G is actually amazing because of the constant and real sense of motion and flow of time. While we are watching one scene or listening to a conversation, things keep happening in the background. It is one of the reasons people were so confused. We would be thrown into conversations and events that had already begun while the previous scene was still in progress.

But I heard the speed of light is much faster there

Let's also sing a praise for the glorious awkward pause in every fucking show that can't into interjections ever.

Because japanese sentences don't make any sense until they're finished

Are we now going to complain about something like THIS?
Just how autistic people has become? why do you give so much shit about such irrelevant crap? do you have nothing better to do with your life then bothering why characters aren't behaving in a way YOU think they should?
What in the world is wrong you idiots?

That's actually a good point.

Reconguista in G had great animation, character designs, mechanic designs and even the idea was good. But Tomino is a shit writer.

M-my life is b-boring. A-and to have s-someone t-to talk w-with, I-I m-make threads-threads-threads on f-f-f-Sup Forums, even if the question is s-s-stu-stu-stupid.
