no
fuck no
NNA, Evol, and Tekketsu were bad.
True tears was okay.
Wixoss and Hanairo were pretty good.
Didn't watch Mayoiga.
Pretty average record.
No and I don't understand how she keeps getting work. It baffles me honestly.
Enjoyed Hanasaku Iroha.
Otherwise no.
literally who
No.
I hope she never touches Gundam ever again.
I liked Kiznaiver. Wixoss and Nagi no Asakura I felt like they were watchable but didn't really feel like finishing them.
God no. IBO was actual cancer, Kiznaiver actually killed a man, and Toradora was the biggest jape of all time.
It's the definition of a fun ride.
Her new manga is hilarious so yes, I enjoy it. But is it good? No.
That would be Fukuda or Urobuchi
Okada is just cheap drama for old housewives.
Woah she's actually pretty ugly
No.
Meh. She's hot or miss with a lot of misses. But she's a former neet who's working her dream job and is actually happy now, which i can respect.
every anime I've watched that she's touched has been dogshit
Yes.
>Urobuchi
UROBUCHI GUNDAM WHEN
I liked M3.
no, IBO was a travesty
Somewhat. I enjoy a few of the stuff she's worked on, but the reaction I always seem to make whenever I hear she's working on X upcoming show is usually "Oh. Darn." I guess she just bores me for the most part.
For those who didn't know yet, director of IBO want to kill every member of Tekkadan at the end of story but Mari object this and rewrite the story of 5 last episode.
Worse than cancer.
She only really cared about her favorite character, she didn't care to save the others.
Nagai was retarded to think he can pull off a kill em all ending. He should leave it to the pros next time.
Are people still busy giving her a pass and putting the blame on the directors?
The director is just as much to blame
her writing is okay and I like it, except for last acts. they're always shit.
She sucks a mean dick, user.
Yes.
I like Wixoss, Nagi no Asukara, True Tears and M3.
She's already wrote more good shows than Gen Urobuchi.
Yes. Looking forward to her debut as Director too, the movie looks promising.
People with high EQ - pick Okada.
People with low EQ - pick Urobuchi.
People not knowing what EQ is - pick Jun Maeda.

Do you see how she can manage to write so many shows per year?
Because of this all those shows range from mediocre to terrible. No attention to quality at all.
When are you going to wake up to the fact you have absolute dogshit taste?
why so salty?
Please don't compare Urobuchi to a bunch of hacks
Okada can be fun but I think her shows fall flat more often. I still usually end up watching her crap if its airing unless I'm completely disinterested in the genre as I was with gundam.
What, you're telling me that anime have multiple writers? No way...
WIXOSS is my favorite anime so yes. People blame her, when her episodes are good. Its when its passed to others that turn it to shit. See: Infected vs Spread, and look up what episodes she did/my do.
You just posted a best post in Okada`s defence. All shows of "her" that are meh/bad are not in her control actually.
As opposed to all shows where she was entirely in control/wrote story and massive influence on direction and composition turned out to be great.
Anohana, Hanasaku Iroha, her movies.
And for all shows that she is involved, regardless of quality of source material she brings displaying character emotion and developemnt like no other writer can.
Toradora would be not best love story ever told without Okada. Kodomo no Jikan would not have same impact. Kiznaiver would not be best Trigger show. Gosick would not have its feel. Fractale would not have saved anime. Darker than Black would have remained episodic shit.
I just gave you the facts that's all.
You got something wrong here. Urobuchi can hardly be called a writer, he should have remained in VN industry since he completely lacks ability to be original or write characters. Maeda as well should have stayed there. Only referencing those two in the same post with Okada, since its a known names -not because of their "talent"/
Wixoss was great
Now go see which episodes she wrote. Hers are not the bad ones.
Wixoss is poor mans Black Rock Shooter (by Okada as well)
>As opposed to all shows where she was entirely in control/wrote story and massive influence on direction and composition turned out to be great.
Kiznaiver is the show where she gets the most control and ended up being one of the worst things with her name.
She's best when a strong director is controlling her.
Yes, they are very human if you look at it with the right eyes.
WIXOSS is the thinking mans Exorcist.
She's a good melodrama writer I guess but that's not really high praise considering melodrama is inherently shit.
She also doesn't fucking know how to handle the final act of a story let alone how to end it.
Wrong. Why are you feel a need to lie?
Her concept for Kiznaiver was completely different, she wanted a battle focused edgy battle royale. Trigger rejected and made her do the drama and dictated the stuff it wanted.
Her work there still was great, but its not show she wanted. (Ironically, Anohana was intended to be perverted comedy at first, but producers had to tame down Okada since if not controlled she is way too daring)
She's a Japanese woman.
>She also doesn't fucking know how to handle the final act of a story let alone how to end it.
This.

>The story begins with Makia, who is from a family where all the members stop aging in their mid teens. She has no parents and, although her days are peaceful, she feels lonely. Their peace is shattered when an army invades, seeking the secret to her people's immortality. Leilia, the most beautiful girl in her clan, is taken away, and the boy Makia has secret feelings for disappears. Makia is able to escape, but she loses her friends and her home. Wandering alone in the forest, she finds Erial, a baby boy who has lost his parents. The story follows the changing relationship between the two as Erial grows up and Makia does not.
Okada finally did it.
If you are talking about Gundam, she has little control over what happened there being straight dictated what to write. IBO is Nagai`s story, same way as Mayoiga is not written by Okada, but straight adapted Mizushima`s script
I'm not just talking about Gundam.
Do you know how many times an anime changes concept before it's made?
If it was a battle anime like she wanted, it would have been ass too. The point is that she's awful at writing even when giving the freedom of writing all the episodes.
Trying to claim only the episodes she wrote are good for her other anime is pathetic and just reinforces delusions for a writer that should be writing melodramas for bored housewives instead of wasting animation studio's time and resources.
I'm glad she's hated and people see her for what she is. An writer with a perverted sense of humor.
Thanks to IBO's fuckup, she and Nagai are going to be roasted for decades to come.
Litterally Fractale
She is the Matt Ward of animes.
t. fa/tg/uy
Literally the only good show she's done is Hanairo, she will enver be able to top that. NagiAsu and True Tears were passable.
WIXOSS was fun until suddenly oh boy don't get me started on the revelations in S2.
>The point is that she's awful at writing
Invalidates your post just exposing you as a blind hater.
She woudnt be a topic at all if she was awful. The opposite is true, she is popular because is great and controversy surrounding her is because of low EQ people hating her style which relies on exposing characters psyche and emotions.
You obviously haven't read Maeda or Urobuchi.
S2 was great, I dont care what anyone says.
>She woudnt be a topic at all if she was awful
Here's where you're wrong.
The ones that get attention are the very good and the very bad, never the mediocre.
If everyone keeps going on and on about how awful and contrived her writing is, maybe they do have a point.
She doesn't belong in the anime industry, she should go back to writing porn or shitty soap operas.
Not an argument. Aside from the fact i did, all VN writing is abysmall. No exceptions. There is not a single prominent VN writer that is worthy of graduating into anime medium (sadly, some like Nasu, Maeda and Urobuchi did, shitting it since then).
>Urobuchi Gundam
>everyone dies, even the viewers
It is a valid argument.
You can't argue about the quality of their works if you know absolutely nothing about their work to begin with.
You shouldn't pretend to know something you have no familiarity with. It's not nice.
First of all "shitty soap operas" are higher tier medium than Anime. Involving a lot higher finances, appealing to wider audiences and having much higher effort put into them and proffessionality requirements. Okada being able to write scripts for proper movies/tv shows is a praise, not critizism. Any other anime director would be laugthed at if he tried to switch industry.
Secondary, all criticism of Okada comes from same group of people - a people with low EQ, that dont appreciate sentimental and emotional writing, even though Okada`s writing is not a "melodrama" as pretended to be, but just painting deep emotional portraits of characters and focusing on it - be it love, surfering, hatred or insanity. Her characters are CHARACTERS and not cardboard cutouts in 99% of other anime - and that is apparently too much for people that preffer exactly the plain cliche stories and cardboard cutouts. Give Okada a stick figure on white background, and she`ll make anime that make you feel something. Give same to Urobuchi and he`ll dismember the figure and insert a pretentious twist he stole from somewhere.
You cant shit on Okada "writing" since majoriyt of her works are not originals, and he originals are all great - no exception. Unlike other mentioned "writers" that can only shit out meme works, she is proffessional and can improve any work she is involved at and serves as catalist, allowing bring out the most out of characters and setting.
There is simply no other writers as talented and proffessional as her in anime industry right now, at all. Only Jukki Hanada, but he is commercial writer through and through.
First of all, we discuss anime medium here and "quality of their works" is for all to see. Secondary, you did not "read" any of their works either - you merely most likely played translated novels like Key shit and Saya no Uta, G-Senji, etc.
Well, you are no special snowflake. They are shit, there is nothing praise worthy about their writing skills. Urobuchi is merely capable (and daring) to pile up tweest upon tweests and shock moments - however he completely incapable of writing really coherent story and characters. Maeda is a hack that exploits the same formula over and over and even Citrus (Da Capo etc) novel writing is better than his.
Wow such emotions
Compared to "I am Gundam" its 10000% improvement.
Overusing and exploiting pathos doesn't make her a good writer, it makes her a bad writer. I hope you'll realize that someday, but it's doubtful since you built all kind of delusions to justify her shortcomings and the amount of backlash she gets.
Her fans just like her works can only function by feelings instead of reason AND feelings.
>There is simply no other writers as talented and proffessional as her in anime industry right now, at all. Only Jukki Hanada, but he is commercial writer through and through.
>Only Jukki Hanada
You're irredeemable.
3 episode of Aldnoah is all he can do.
>okada
>pathos
Thanks for confirming you never actually watched any Okada show.
>pathos
I don''t think you know what it means. but it's a nice buzzword, I'll give you that.
More than half a decade ago yes. Hanasaku Iroha is still pretty good.
For everything else? Eh. Hot trash.
>Okada, we want a crime drama gundam
>say no more
And thus Gundam about diddled pedo, gay bromance, harem ship crew and sharing babies was born.
I agree with you, but most here have the emotional intelligence of 0. Literal autists, they wouldn't feel anything so I wouldn't try to explain.
Samefaging this hard
Fuck you Setsuna's autism is great.
This is pathetic
This board is dedicated to waifus and understanding their emotional problems
Rei ended up being one of the most popular anime characters mostly because of that
Okadashit is filled with /u/ and hyper emotional girls, yet her shit is still loathed. She fails even at pandering basic otaku tropes
Mayoiga was so bad it was good.
Okada is pretty much the Adam Sandler of anime writers. Heavily mixed track record, some directors make great use of her writing while others don't.
Fuck no. Hanasaku is literally her only good show.
