It's actually kinda astonishing to me that a show with so many good characters, good music and the most amusing/interesting protagonist in years can go so horribly wrong.

Half the characters in this shitty show deserved to be in something better.

what went wrong?

It was a hell of ride when it aired , the threads were great.

They changed the setting every 3 episodes.

Nothing went wrong, it's the best comedy created since Jojo.

>It's actually kinda astonishing to me that a show with so many good characters, good music and the most amusing/interesting protagonist in years
None of this is true. Most of the characters were garbage
>MUH WILD RIDE
This meme needs to die

Medaka box did that and it did fine. Cross ange is top tier anime that scared underage normies off with the lesbian rape in the first 30 minutes.

Going horribly wrong is what made Cross Ange so fun. They trolled their audience very well. Why do people seem to think this was supposed to be a serious anime?

>They trolled their audience very well
Trolled the people who didn't watch it?

I know you're trying to imply that no one watched it, but the way you worded that is beyond retarded.

>normies
Hello, crossboarder.

Nah what's retarded is you implying that Cross Ange's shittiness was a means at trolling and that people gave a shit outside a few SJWs and contrarians trying to be funny.

Why does Sup Forums hate Norm Macdonald fans so much?

They practically spelled out their trolling in the episode previews, you retard. They had a multi-dimension scene where Ange and dragon hime were in various trope roles, for no damn reason. Male MC fucked Ange for an entire day (or was it two?) and gloated about it to the antagonist. There's so many god damn examples that selling them all out would be a full plot summary.

You don't watch shows like Code Geass/Valvrave/Cross Ange for coherent plots or even good endings.

They are trashy, chaotic rollercoasters and they are completely aware of it. If something is too stupid and nonsensical they put it in anyway because it's fun.

If anything, Guilty Crown suffered because it was far too safe.

>I-i-i-i-it's suppose to be shit
Is that we're you're going with?

Because the old man just can't keep the animals on his farm quiet. It's annoying the entire neighborhood.

>You don't watch shows like Code Geass/Valvrave/Cross Ange

No shit

It's a trainwreak and was meant to be so. It was fun shlock. It was so over the top that I can only assume that you are trolling when you suggest they were trying to make a serious anime.

Nobody said anything about them making a serious anime you're just stupid to believe it was trolling my making an intentionally piece of shit.

People want to think they're above this show, when they aren't. It was cathartic, but nobody wants to admit that.

Saw this a couple of months ago. Wish I could have seen those threads.

Are you posting from a phone, or just 12?

Nice non-argument you got there retard

It's not an argument, it's a question. Here's another: are you capable of coherent thought?

Nice non-argument you got there retard

Oh god. They even joked about how male mc only survived the explosion because writer's asspull.

I honestly don't understand people who take Cross Ange seriously.

i really like those dark thin lines in the character designs

Cross Ange thread turned into a slagging match, good times.

Why do retards not know what trolling is anymore?

Because Sup Forums gets too caught up with their LEL EPIC TRAINWRECK MEMES to not realize they're watching shit. For a show that apparently "trolled" its audiences Fukada sure got salty over twitter for people not liking it and pointing out inconsistencies.

>still salty

This. If it came out at the original planned time it would have been the heir to CG. But stuck up people literally can't have fun nowadays. At least I still had my joy with it.

Your tastes is still shitty

setting up over-the-top clichés, and subverting expectations from those scenes in an equally over-the-top manner, seems like the definition of trolling.

As in, doing things for the purpose of getting a rise out of people, rather than for advancing the plot.

Maybe you have a different definition of trolling, and maybe there is a more accurate term. Is that the issue, or are you just trying to say it was shit due to a failed attempt at being serious?

>setting up over-the-top clichés, and subverting expectations from those scenes in an equally over-the-top manner, seems like the definition of trolling.
Too bad that never fucking happened unless this was your first anime (which I'm guessing yes since a trashy mecha anime isn't a new concept) than you're a fucking idiot for believing this

I wonder if it's the same guy who posted like this in the threads back then. I mean it's some dedication to hate something.
>epic trainwrecks are not epic trainwrecks!
Lel

>Only one person hates Cross Ange
Whatever makes you sleep at night

>watching more anime changes the intention of the creators!
With that said, it reminded me the good old days of old anime when I watched stuff to have fun.

>the same exact remarks and posts every time

...

>intention
There's that word again

Fuck off, Kyoani.

As if the producer had any real say in it. He probably did present the idea as serious, only to have the director and writers rip it apart and have some fun.

>As if the producer had any real say in it.
He did since he was in charge of the entire fucking thing

Have something nice in this thread before it's completely ruined.

He's probably been waiting this whole time for someone to make a new CA tread. I kind of feel bad for him.

>IP didn't move

Why are you talking to yourself?

You've never worked in TV or movies, I take it?

I wouldn't be surprised.

So you're just talking out your ass and don't actually know anything n regards to the show you're fucking defending? Alright

user he's TROLLING you he's pretending to be stupid because that makes it funny

No matter how I read this, he was the guy who attacked the show. Are you samefagging maybe?

I'm pointing out that it's entirely possible, since it has happened countless times before, for the wishes of the producer to get hijacked/mutated/whatever. Everyone else invoked in the CA production seemed to get the joke except him, so that seems likely.

>best original sunrise series since soaring cake gril
>literally cannot discuss it anywhere but Sup Forums
What a double egged sword

>best original sunrise series since soaring cake gril

Not even fucking close

>Everyone else invoked in the CA production seemed to get the joke except him
???
Never heard about anything like this. Everyone seemed to get the jokes except the few autists here.

We get it. Just go fuck off to another thread so we can talk about what hair length was the best for Ange.

(the shortest version, of course)

I forgot about T&B but literally every other original they've made has been gutter trash since then

Nah we get the joke it was just not funny

I vaguely remember producer-kun being publicly butt hurt by fan reactions. I don't remember the details.

>but literally every other original they've made has been gutter trash since then
Including Cross Ange

But it's the top of the pile, the trash king

>I vaguely remember
Too vaguely!
