Where did the Moon Cell Automaton come from? And who made it?

Las Encore is just as bad or perhaps worse than Fate Deen in the animation department

It's prettier in many ways, but also much less fluid. It's a bit jarring, actually.

[pinetree]

Shaft forgot they need to actually have interesting stuff on the screen if they don't want to animate. They grew complacent because of Monogatari.

[Arashi_Leonhart]

Deen Stay Night had nothing from HF

Sakura "possessed" and Rin trying to save her.

[Toa of Gallifrey]

Last Encore is shorter and has the Nursery Rhyme episodes. DEEN is a two-cour drag with really good music wasted on really bland visuals. I know a lot of people love the Archer vs. Berserker fight, but I really dislike it and cite it as an example of the show's largest problems.

[Rafflesiac]

Tenchi hou Take was good but Berserker getting stuck in the castle roof was lol as fuck

DEEN disappointed me less but I had less expectations for it, especially since it was the first TM anime I watched.

[Altaris]

I enjoyed Deen SN way more than Last Encore lol

LE is worse than a chore tho sit through

[Rafflesiac]

I remember being legendarily pissed off at Shirou for not having the skills to back up his idiocy like manga Shirou did, good times, good times.

[Altaris]

Hey Deen's FSN Music is pretty good. At least it has that

[Deathhappens]

Its true though.

Deens Fate was a horrible conglomeration of all three routes. Plus the animation is dated to all hell. Even the fact it came out in 2006 isnt an excuse.

FMA 03 has aged really well and it came out 3 years prior.

It's all opinion of course and I have a hefty dose of nostalgia for that one, but I never got the whole "DEEN FINDS A WAY" meme. Like,yes, there are off-model shots and obvious budget-saving techniques in some of the more intensive battles, but the overall image still looked good. Music, artstyle, direction, character designs, all these things were on point. UFO's UBW was technically much better, animation wise, but it came out looking much worse (mostly due to directorial/editing choices; nearly every fight is an exercise in excess and wasted movement, every explosion has a nuclear mushroom behind it, while meanwhile characters talking to each other barely emote at all).


As for Last Encore, much as I loved both Extra and SHAFT, the show has issues. And I didn't even get past episode 3.

[Rafflesiac]

Artstyle my ass, it looked 10 years older than it was 10 years ago.

Also lol at the UfoBW contrarianism, but that's a convo for a larger, older thread.

[Altaris]

The only problem i had with Ufo's UBW was the pacing and music, and music is one of the make or break factor for me for many shows. Other than that it's good and much better than Deen's

Enjoyment is subjective anyway

It looked like Higurashi and Jigoku Shoujo and MarMite and Kyo Kara Maou, that is to say every other show Deen did around that time.

As for UfoBW, I'm not gonna crucify people for liking it, but it never clicked with me for a variety of reasons. Zero was Ufo's magnum opus.

[Rafflesiac]

Now that's just unfair to Presage Flower.

I will continue my lonely vigil of loving Fukusawa's score.

[Altaris]

Nah ever heard of these terrible movies called KnK ?

[Rafflesiac]

I got lazy with rewatching them and couldn't remember how they compared

[LJ3]

Now that's just unfair to Presage Flower.

people not appreciating Fukusawa’s work makes me rude

like I will legit consider you musically illteriate if the way he builds up his score doesn’t strike you

Fuck at least say you respect Mahoyo

Fair, although adaptation-wise I still think they improved by applying the lessons they learned from KnK to Zero.

Second verse same as the first.

What little I've heard of Mahoyo definitely deserves praise, but I can hardly say I have enough to praise the soundtrack as a whole.

Although the man is also apparently esponsible for Motteke! Serafuku, so I'm conflicted on whether to praise or plot revenge on him.

[Altaris]

Music is literally one of the most subjective things ever to argue about

Idk why you'd even get mad about someone not liking the same score that you do lol

[Nikiri]

Hey Deen's FSN Music is pretty good. At least it has that

it's ok, the 5 tracks are good, rest are so-so

and by 5 tracks, i mean 2 melodies with different touch

unmei no yoru / keiyaku / gunyuu shissou and kodoku na junrei / kishi ou no hokori
