It's one of these moments when you throw Lain, Haibane Renmei, Texnolyze and Eva in your 3x3 just to fit in but realise years after that they are truly the best
Benjamin Bell
This but unironically
Landon Ramirez

But I didn't do that. Those were the shows that I liked the most.

Ok actually the entire board has it in their 3x3 for some reason
>Kill la Kill
How can you even like Kill la Kill after watching Gurren Lagann? Fucking hate this show
Asher Anderson
>How can you even like Kill la Kill
I really enjoyed the first half
Camden Hill
Do people intentionally exclude better shows from their 3x3's for some reason? To use the most popular example, Eva is definitely better than the vast majority of shows listed in the majority of these 3x3's. I just don't get the need to be contrarian.
Xavier Phillips
I agree to some extent. But in threads that are used for discussing each other's tastes people that don't circlejerk the same shit are not wanted. If everyone had a 3x3 consisting only of, I don't fucking know, Eva, Monster, Lain and whatever it would be like
>Nice, you like Eva, EoE was good
>Yes, I agree
>Yes
every time. Would be boring
Brandon Sanchez
Shitposting aside, arguing that something is "better" in regards to 3x3's which contain what people like is missing the point.
Jonathan Ortiz
As long as people get that then that's fine. It's more interesting this way.
Robert Robinson

Nathaniel Davis
First, you're working from the incorrect assumption people are able to discern for themselves what is or isn't artistically successful. This is not the case, and most people have absolutely no taste or sensibilities.
Second, people prefer things for reasons other than artistic/technical merit, so there's no reason to make your 3x3 a shortlist of the nine most influential or critically successful anime ever released.

Kaiba and Kemonozume are shit, haven't watched Crybaby
And Perfect Blue is Satoshi Kon's worst work for me
Lucas Anderson
I haven't seen Ruroni Kenshin. Kemonozume is easily my favorite Yuasa show. This is too much conflict for me.
Although, I do agree that Kaiba is a bit of a mess. Still decent I suppose. Don't bother with Crybaby unless you've read Devilman and seen the OVAs and just really want more. It was a huge letdown.

Perfect Blue is a masterpiece. Tokyo Godfathers and Paprika aren't even good movies.

Logan Reed
Top left is definitely Dallos, an incredibly boring OVA from Mamoru Oshii.
Angel Peterson
Top right is High School Fleet
Andrew Hughes
If I recall correctly, I stopped watching Perfect Blue at the gangrape scene because of how edgy it felt.
Paprika is possibly the best "post-modern" anything.
Millennium Actress is a ride and a decent love story.
Bottom row is mainly there because it didn't do anything wrong and looks good.
Logan Hall
You should consider watching Perfect Blue again. I don't like it more than Millennium Actress, but it's a beautiful thriller.
Joshua Butler

You're a moron.

5/8 Your Lie in April is garbage
3/3 but Paprika over Perfect Blue is a bad decision
Ryan Edwards
I like how it ties into the themes of dreams and reality vs imagination. Aside from being great to look at, those cuts and cinema scenes and pop references are actually in-context.
Asher Sullivan
Not the person you're replying to, but did Paprika not feel like a retread of sorts of Millennium Actress but worse? To me, it seems like a flashier but less dense version
Liam Taylor
Paprika's post-modernism is incredibly shallow. Read some of Haruki Murakami and David Foster Wallace's novels if you want to see someone really tackle post-modernism. Even Mind Game and Millennium Actress are more successful as postmodern art than Paprika.

William Anderson
My point is that the form fits the themes. A story about dreams is better fit to post-modernism than a love story.
I've only read a few short-stories of his, but Murakami reeks of hack. Meanwhile IJ was a 4/5 for me, and that's in part because I had to google the ending.
>Paprika's post-modernism is incredibly shallow.
This is interesting though. Care to elaborate? What distinguishes shallow from non-shallow post-modernism, for you?
Nathaniel Long
Robotech? Disgusting.
Nicholas Myers
HxH is great, you have garbage taste.
Lucas Scott
Fuck off accell
Dominic Ward
>is better fit to post-modernism
Nonsense.
>Murakami reeks of hack
What a vapid statement. Read Hard-Boiled Wonderland and Norwegian Wood, they're incredible.
Paprika's post-modernism basically just poses a question about the relationship between reality and dreams. What does it actually say about that relationship? Nothing, to be honest. Even the portrayal of the dreaming mind is based on a bunch of cliche "wacky dream" imagery and conceits like cinema which Kon used to better effect in Millennium Actress.
Jack Adams
Unironically, the worst 3x3 I've ever seen.
Brandon Howard
The manga is a wall of text with cliche characters and horrible art.
The anime is full of lengthy dialogue exposition for nonsense power systems which aren't even consistent to their own imaginary limitations. The 2011 version has hideous art and animation, and terrible character design. You literally just like it because there is some edgy shit, and you have no standards for visuals.
Dylan Adams
Golden Boy, Nana, and Akira are all pretty good, though.
Even in this thread, these are much worse:
Dominic Cox
The 2011 anime has excellent visuals and Nen is a great power system. I somewhat agree about the manga being a wall of text though. I think Mad House took a flawed manga and turned it into a great anime.
Andrew Martinez
Not him, but Golden Boy was very meh
Wyatt Fisher
I agree, it has good animation but I didn't laugh that much, I always thought people calling it hilarious was a meme
Christopher Murphy
>The 2011 anime has excellent visuals
Are you kidding me? It's a slideshow with horrible artwork.
>Nen is a great power system
If by "great" you mean inconsistent edgelord bullshit, then sure.
Grayson Roberts
You seem really mad that people like HxH, did Togashi fuck your mom or something?
Levi Bennett
Watch some real anime.
Liam Turner
Not him but just fucking stop, I'm not defending HxH but just stop
Jaxon Ross
>not him
Sure, pal.
Nathan Lopez
What do you classify as "real anime"?
Anthony King
K-On, Haruhi Suzumiya and Azumanga
Ryan Reed
I agree with this, but unironically.
Christopher Hall
>Nonsense.
It's true as in structure isn't non-linear in both post-modernism and dreams.
>What a vapid statement
Just like any statement about anything anyone hasn't a great knowledge of. I might check out Norwegian Wood.
>just poses a question
To me it felt more like play between the two. I wasn't in it to learn something deep and true about the thing; it was style over substance, and I really enjoyed the style.
Do you have a 3x3?
Luis Bell
Lupin III
Haruhi is well directed and has great production values. I can't stand the writing, though. Azumanga is a great manga, with a mediocre anime adaptation that has aged poorly due to being caught up in the difficult early transition to digital cels.
K-on is fucking great.
Easton Evans

Asher Davis
>Ace Attorney
If this is a joke, I don't get it
Robert Morgan
Goshogun: Time Etranger, in particular. I have never seen the series.
Luis Evans
It's clearly Wicked City, and I don't think anyone has seen anything GoShogun related outside of Time Etranger.
Colton Bell
It's definitely not Wicked City, and the series of Goshogun has actually been subbed now.
Kayden Hall
First point is wrong. Second point is irrelevant because people love Eva far a host of reasons.
Sebastian Bailey
Nathan Nelson
Pretty sweet.
Henry Bell
>It's clearly Wicked City
Nope, that is art for Time Etranger.
Eva has major pacing problems, lots of plot contrivances, and a train wreck ending that had to be fixed( and was) by EoE - it is a good show, but there are plenty of reasons not to put it on a 3x3. Plus some people may just not be drawn in by the characters, themes, and aesthetic in general, so even if they thought it was masterfully constructed it wouldn't belong on their 3x3.
