Is that the movie?

Good god i have missed that battle theme.
This show gave me a doll joints fetish

The format was not stated yet.

Puppet with glasses. They're breaking new grounds!

I wonder who's voicing him? S1 had a lot of great VAs.

Are there any non shit subs without all the chinese names? After finishing the series i couldn't even remember a single name.

Oh thank god.

Finally

>Screaming Phoenix Killer is back
And all is right with the world

I hope they show his full backstory. Screaming phoenix killer had a hard life.

>Phoenix
what
this isnt the Phoenix/Duck prequel, right?

>doll joints fetish
>Thunderbolt Fantasy
>not Rozen Maiden
I want newfags to leave.

I was waiting to see the new girl's puppet form as well ;-;

This. Why the fuck do they do this? It's even worse since what's written in the subs doesn't even remotely resembles what the characters are saying most of the time.

>that smooth jazz version from the OST

>This. Why the fuck do they do this?
Because english subs are an afterthought. The two languages of dubs were all they were really counting on, plus the Chinese subs with Japanese dialogue. The English sub was basically neglected.

Rozen Maiden lacks the spark 3D doll joints has in my opinion.
Plus look at this shit
TF dolls > Rozen dolls

Here's his concept art

There's hope for her too now

main character: Shofukan
blonde guy: Ken
Vape Duck: Enigmatic Gale
Princess: Dan Fei
Archer: One eyed impaler (they changed to sharp-eye later lol)
Assassin: Phoenix
Villain: Bones (Bones of Creation)
Demon Witch: Xing Hai
Cute badgirl: Lie Mei

These are names we WISHED they used, the problem is that the names in the sub don't sound like the Japanese names at all.

Will there be any cute girls to bully?

I have no idea how they're going to top S1. It was pretty much a perfect wuxia style show.

The movie/OVA will be split into two. Part one is going to be a prequel about Phoenix and Vapeduck.
Part two is going to be a sequel, which will link S1 and S2 thus the evil looking glasses puppet.

Because Japanese Romanization of Chinese names is little different.
Here you have list:
>Shāng Bù Huàn - Shou Fu Kan
>Lǐn Xuě Yā - Lin Setsu A
>Dān Fěi - Tan Hi
>Miè Tiān Hái - Betsu Ten Gai
>Xíng Hài - Kei Gai
>Shā Wú Shēng - Setsu Mu Shou
>Shòu Yún Xiāo - Shu Un Shō
>Juǎn Cán Yún - Ken San Un
>Liè Mèi - Ryou Mi
Left is Chinese writing - Right is Japanese reading.

>Watched this series thinking I would only it enjoy for the meme's of it being a puppet show.
>Got the best show of last year and Urobutchers second best show.

>Because Japanese Romanization of Chinese names is little different.
I am aware of the reason. It still doesn't change that the fact it is painful to read, and makes no sense unless you use the Taiwanese dub. The english sub was not designed to go with Japanese dub at all.

>Urobutchers second best show
what is the first one?

I hope so

>official lewds from the girls

Personally I still like Psycho Pass season 1 more Thunderbolt was just the most fun I've had with any of his shows.

S1 was baby mode. Urobuchi chose fantasy tropes to ease people who are not familiar with wuxia or budaixi. Even the choice of simpler weapons that everyone knows was deliberate.
S2 is going to be much more advanced in terms of wuxia elements, we might even see some stronger Taoist/Buddhist themes as well.

It's essentially same as when you are translating thing via third party language. Most basis always recommends you to use original.

Tan Hi best girl.

>Tanhi won't be in S2 or the side-story

Literately why.

...

Unironically the best show of 2016, you can't prove me wrong.

why in the world is he back? isnt this a prequel ?

>It's essentially same as when you are translating thing via third party language. Most basis always recommends you to use original.
That is no excuse.
In the end the majority of people who want English subs, want it for Japanese dub. If you want Chinese dub then you probably already know the language. I understand WHY they neglected the Western audience, but that doesn't excuse them doing this.

Who's the artist; I really like the style.

Which character had the best poem?

>Who's the artist; I really like the style.
I am guessing it is from the one who does the official manga.

I watched TAC subs for the show and it was nipponized but I don't think there's seeders for that even back when it was still airing so good luck.

Archer's intro was the best for me, everything was perfect, from the sniping from miles away to his battle versus, the things he said and the poem.
But if you want to know the poem alone and only the poem, Shofukan poem on the last episode.

It's not the guy who does the official manga, he's called NamanikuATK. He and Urobuchi are one of the original Nitroplus employees that still work in the company.
He's mostly known as the designer for Muramasa, Chaika and Haruchika.

>NamanikuATK
I suspected it was him with this one God bless that guy and those delicious asses he draws.

Looking forward to this

...

...

Aside from Shofukan, Vapeduck's poem came at just the right time,read in a nice menacing way, and really let you know how much of a shitter he is.

I think that's a different artist. He? was the one who designed Shoufukan.

do we have a poem compilation video ?

...

>more Phoenix Killer

Great. Does anyone have any Webms of the "shadow battle" he had with Shou Fu Kan? Or really just any of the cool scenes.

My hype thrusters are raging with the power of a hundred suns.

I think it's Ken. His poem came at the 'perfect' time, right in timing as the affirmation of his character development and how he became the man he wanted to be.

even more intense reaction

Didn't those subs have a really ugly font?

Hnggggg..... my dick.
Im such a sucker for evil ara ara's.
Who was her VA again?

...

i have no idea

>Japanese designers because chink little brother can't design for shit
lol. Serious though their old series are so fucking awful. God bless Urobochi and Nitroplus staffs, without them this obscured crap will never be good like this.

There is nothing wrong with Pili's designs.

It's fucking Milly!
I knew i had heard that heatstroke inducing voice before

Sadly, most of those good japanese designs cannot be used, because they need lots of cloth to over the puppeteer's hand.

it is, their costume colors look awful and those characters all look stiff as fuck, literally soulless. Namaniku make them look much more dynamic and much better costume designs than those Taiwan old fucks

Chinese shit is not anime.

Not this one but this shit right here is literally chink trash

The final poem in the series was the best.

It combined with Sho giving the umbrella back to the Buddha was perfect.

...

Pili's designs are reek of 80s cringefest, they look ugly as hell, don't kid yourself.

...

It's an acquired taste

yeah acquired shit taste

She'll be back in S2, right?

No, there's no reason for her to be in the story anymore.

Most look good. They've made hundreds of designs so it's hard to generalize.

That moment exposed Shou's entire philosophy and it's fucking beautiful. His spirit is unbreakable.

>Arrogant, thinks himself as immortal
>names himself after the legendary immortal bird
>The only character in the series who has exposed chest and abs fitting his concept perfectly
Is this what they call justified fanservice done right?

How are both Shou and Shouting Bird in this? If the latter is alive then it's a prequel, then Shou wasn't in the country.

...

I'd really only need the sub file since I can mux it myself.

Maybe one can change that with aegis subs.

I don't see any doll joints there, you massive homo. Even in the show there's a serious lack of joints since they are more like sock puppets than articulated dolls.

>youtube.com/watch?v=KWb3ikdIB3A

It took some digging, but here you go.

If you are willing to go that far you could just replace the names yourself.

thanks, video was related lol:
youtube.com/watch?v=i8_gnY9q1jQ&t=2m42s

I'm excited.

WOOO WOOO WOO

New puppet.

What does "side-project" means? New season or not? I want more Shou-chan adventures NOW.

You wouldn't fuck a puppet.

It means Gaiden. A series between S1 and S2.

That's ok too.

Here you have a schedule!

Will the novel include lewd Tan-his?

My boner cannot be contained right now.

I can't get over how young-looking Shofukan is in the art is when compared to his puppet.

>The Sword of Life and death
So what we are getting now is a OVA? Movie?

>I think I liked it better when you were masturbating to chinese cartoons, son
