>Under the Skin
>IT
>Goonies
The list goes on.
Think of it as a homage in the vein of Tarantino movies.

>elfen lied

With what? How shitty it was?

it's not a homage to these 2 series though

they literally used the same formula of both things through the whole series

>shitty anime
>gets copied
>it's a success

But user, silent hill isn't about parallel dimensions, only the shitty movies are.

I'm still really hoping its a lead in to the DOOM universe

The only scene that's even remotely similar to Silent Hill is at the very, very end when the kid's in the bathroom.

>elfen lied copy
Because there's a young female with super powers?

even the design of the monster is silent hill's

because there's a young female with natural born super powers that's being experimented on a secret high tech facility that rampages out of it killing guards and befriends a good guy that teaches her about the outside world while she experiments the joy of it but also the problem of unresolved problems of the past that soon will surface?

>implying they even know what Elfen Lied is
>implying there was anything resembling Silent Hill in the show

I guess the monster kind of resembled something from a post-4 super shitty Silent Hill, but that's a pretty generic bar.

ctrl f "elfen"

what, would you rather they don't make things that are unsoured vt videogames?

i'll never understand you people,don't you want nice things?

>copy
No it isn't. Drawing inspiration from sources is fine. Silent Hill 2 did the same thing with Jacob's Ladder right down to the head-shake. Fuck, modern horror/thriller wouldn't even exist without the influence of people like Lovecraft and Geiger.

yeah but silent hill 2 is the GOAT horror game
no other game has come close except alien isolation
nowadays you get cheap gore porn like dead space, fear and resident evil

It felt like a combination of the Monster Squad and X-Files, to be honest.

Do you honestly think that those two are super obscure?

to your average normie

>silent hill isn't about parallel dimensions

When will this meme die?

You noticed the thing! Good for you! All your efforts are appreciated! It's a good thing you came along to tell us!

Anything that copies Elfen Lied must be garbage.

Yes, we all saw the RLM review.

It'd be more interesting to count the number of things in the show that aren't blatant copies.

>mfw normies and redditors love Stranger Shits
>but they constantly shit on Tarantino for ripping off others

go to bed tomm

oh look it's this argument
>two guys get together and decide to make a TV show that is an homage to stuff they enjoyed and grew up on
>take inspiration from videogames, books and movies to construct an 8 episode TV show
>openly talk about what inspired them in interviews and state their intentions
>they le copied le everything meme
they did what they wanted to do and they did it well, in a format it hasn't been done before
kill yourself

I suspect it has a lot to do with the people who loved it not being aware of just how much the show heavily borrows from movies from the 80's, and other works like Silent Hill/Elfen Lied like OP pointed out. I'm guessing it's an age thing because these people surely have to be between 12-20 to not have grownup, or be familiar with at least, with the classic Amblin era of Spielberg films such as E.T., Goonies..., the works of Stephen King like IT, and Stand By Me, the 80's horror movies like Nightmare on Elm Street, etc. etc. They just see the show as 80's nostalgia, and they love it because the 80's aesthetic is "in" (see retrowave/vaporwave, for example).
