A thread designated for PoFV and UDoALG netplay. I hope it will be useful for Anons here to find a partner for play much easier this way.
Also discussions pertaining to technical aspects of netplay and the strategies regarding those two games can be held here.

Maybe my favorite part of Touhou is its doujin scene. Bold statement, I know. Yet doujinshi recommendation threads are few and far between, and don't tend to last. So I figured out this was the best place to make a thread for anons to recommend their favorite doujinshi.
Let's keep it SFW for now. Both jp only and translated doujin, but clarify its status if possible.
I am going to start with a rather unknown one: 魔理沙が生理でがんばる本, or "Marisa does her best while on her period". Now, this sounds like a horrible idea, but the author, "am colon tiger", has quite a distinctive style in his stories, and I found the three works I have read of them (this one, the "Another" version of this story, and the "No control on Kirisame's [sexual] appetite"), to be quite enjoyable. Sex is a theme without devolving into NSFW (in fact, it is marked as "for all ages"), which is already quite inusual for a doujinshi, but he even introduces some drama into it… They are soft yuri, btw. And I think it hasn't been translated.

Questions: Do anons want nsfw too?
Should doujin series ("Osanareimu" etc.,) be included?
Anyway, post your.

 No.1576

Jesus, I already have to correct myself. The author's name is "Toran"; and the doujin circle is "am:tiger". Just wanted to clarify. Sorry.

Hey wapchan.
/jp/ is trying to make a touhou visual novel, but they're having issues with coordination.
Someone floated the idea of using an altchan, so I'm here to see if anyone supports this idea.
Here's the original thread:

Hey, I am the Koishi/Keiki/Zanmu anon. Sorry for the radio silence.
After some thinking, I think I would like to try my hands at a Koishi route, and maybe talk about a Zanmu route later, if I found myself willing to go for it.
Were I to write a Koishi route, I think it would go something like this:
MC is walking the surroundings of the Youkai Mountain, maybe, where he starts to feel he is being looked at. After a while, Koishi appears in MC's field of vision, and asks where he is going. The conversation would drift off after that, and at the end she would confide to him that she needs some help. The reason being, she feels something weird in her chest she can quite describe, which appears to be loneliness. From then on, MC slowly befriends her (and maybe something more). There are some heartwarming, and some sad moments, which help cement the relationship. Maybe some short adventure to The Palace of the Earthly Spirits she takes him on. It should be a cathartic experience for the MC, but also for Koishi. I was thinking about a 3-day route.
I would write Koishi as somewhat childish, basing myself off her dialogues within SA, with some weird hints here and there to account for her unconscious mind. It should be a heartwarming interaction between two individuals somewhat out there who find each other.
I don't have the notes I wrote about my brainstorming, but this would be gist of it.

Questions: Do events need to correlate with present-day Gensokyo? I am not really interested in her being a well-known individual through Gensokyo, rather in her as she is in SA.

>>1404
a Koishi route along those lines does sound pretty cute. with that 3-day route idea however, do you mean either the first/last half of the routes will be that long (getting to know her vs. actually committing to her) or there will only be 3 days of interaction all together? just trying to make sure i understand is all, i can talk more about route details in a small while.

Hey. So, yeah, I was thinking about a 3 day route in total. At the end of the first day, you would answer whether or not you want to become friends, and answering affirmatively would continue the route. On the second day, some drama takes place (Koishi cannot control herself, she plays too violently, or something along those lines), which gets resolved either then on on the third day. On the third, last day, you make ammends and so the friendship deepens and by the end, Koishi starts noticing she feels something new in her chest, that is, love, for Anon. Then the fabled koosh kiss, and you can go to the Flower Viewing event with her. I personally was not planning to have any sex scenes, because they clearly do not fit the setting.
Of course, you do have a whole game planned, so feel free to point anything that may be incongruous for the final result.

Never really got the feeling that Criterion cares that much about animation in general.

>>3568
Arguably Oshii's masterpiece. It's visually engaging and experimental in a good way. One of the interesting things about animation as a medium is that the creators are free to take it in any direction they want. Gosenzo-sama Banbanzai! gives you a stage play where the camera/viewer can be placed anywhere, and no special effect is out of reach. Plus, on top of that it's genuinely really funny. Tie it all together with animation from some of the best animators of the time (hashimoto, ohira, iso, ect.), and you have one fantastic OVA.

>Never really got the feeling that Criterion cares that much about animation in general.

That is correct. They're kind of snobby and high brow and seem to think that animation is beneath them, or not part of their purview. They did release that Akira Laserdisc in the 90s, but that was before Akira had any good home releases that weren't just cropped VHS tapes.

You could make the case that there's a lot of overlooked and ignored Soviet, European, and Japanese, animation and some need restoration and care. They would have be high brow to fit the Criterion brand though.

I definely think we need a criterion for anime though.

>I definitely think we need a criterion for anime though.
It would be nice. Feels like studios have rather random output with HD masters for their older anime. You might get one that's very well done and then another not long after that seemingly uses an older, worse mastering process. If Criterion were to remaster an anime you'd need something artsy, important, and I suppose something with no HD transfer or one done very poorly.The hardest part would be to decide which anime are the most culturally significant or important. For me, the one that leaps to mind instantly is the End of Evangelion. The TV show had an over all fantastic HD transfer sans episode 16, but the movie's transfer looks like an abortion. I feel that lots of films made during the transition to CG effects and digipaint suffer from this. While not entirely pre 2000s, Satoshi Kon's films are all perfect candidates. I did see that Perfect Blue was supposedly getting a new and better remaster, but the previews I saw did not impress me.

Current /cel/ has too much nostalgia wank. Too little quality show discussion. Manga is also 100x bigger and more varied and has better quality controls than retro anime to boot! Posting is very stale for what should be the core of the site. It should be about new discoveries, new 16mm scans, preservation projects, new laserdisc scans! Let's use this thread to highlight projects in the retro anime scene. I'll start:

A fansub of an anime short included in a V-Jump Festival '95 Video VHS tape, themed around Dragon Quest and starring Slime was released a few weeks ago.

Wapanese Channel creates /djn/ offshoot: Touhou, Visual Novels, and fanworks

Following the Vanishing Imageboard in Digital Paradise incident in the middle of this month, Wapanese Channel has been a place of refuge and reorganization for many affected. The administrator, figamin, has been making efforts to welcome the new arrivals, and also to help them assimilate to local culture. One large class has been categorized as those users who post primary and fan-made content for shmups, VNs, and other doujin works. At the time of the incident, this discussion was relegated to a board it shared with general computing and gaming, but it was quickly made apparent that one board could not hold both topics comfortably after the increase in site activity. It was this fact that spurred figamin to create a new board, /djn/, specifically for this type of discussion.

The decision has been accepted and even hailed as good by many. Still, it is not without controversy.
Most grievously, after it was announced that the board would allow character threads, several readers contacted me to voice their opinions that it was ridiculous that no Tengu threads had been made.
Furthermore, it has been alleged that figamin is working with a local impoverished shrine maiden in exchange for a cut of the donations she hopes to receive from these new users.

This article, as always, aims to spread awareness, but my work does not end here. Rest assured, I will continue personally monitoring this incident, as well as reaching out to figamin for comment.

What kind of habits do you think she would have? I don't know much about the vast myths of Tengu, but I think on the crowish side of her, she would like to solve puzzles, maybe sudoku, or keep a Rubik's cube on her desk. Also, I've heard crows prefer being given unshelled nuts, that way they can figure out how to open them, so I like to imagine her cracking open and snacking on nuts while she works doing proofreading or something like that.

>>1494
We know Tengu like games, going so far as to make expanded rulesets for Shogi to make it more complex, so cerebral activities are up their alley when they're not drowning themselves in bathtubs of sake. General puzzles like you mentioned also sound right, like sudoku and crossword puzzles in newspapers. Maybe games by mail? Given the time they spend outside and their assumed infrastructure, I can imagine some sort of game they play over time and distance and make their moves (replies) when they have a chance. If you remember the original Bladerunner movie, the genetic designer/toymaker makes chess moves with the Tyrell founder through phone calls by declaring move terminology. Something like that but done over mail in some esoteric and arcane Tengu game.

I like that one too. It works well with Aya's speed so you hook around the rim of danmaku while waiting for your camera to charge. It's simple but effective.
My personal favorite is Kokkuri-san's contract in how both it looks, plays, and how fitting its theme is for Ran's character. It starts slow to get you used to the gimmick, but slowly ramps up as Ran plays the part of Kokkuri-san moving the coin planchette you're forced to sit inside of. Fitting the nature of the game it's a timeout spellcard that gets harder and dangerous, the danmaku increases and the space to dodge it shrinks, until suddenly the game's over and Kokkuri-san leaves.

I don't attribute Necro Fantasy to Ran much anymore. It's a remix of Necrofantasia which sits firmly in the Yukari park, but as you said it's "noble" which still fits her. In that regard you could apply Necro Fantasy as something like a prelude. The last boss before the secret boss that messes with your expectations.
Charming Domination on the otherhand fits her to a tee, and it's her theme in UDoALG which cements it. That I think is the quintessential Ran theme.

Some 70s stuff get a decent amount of interest, the 60s is lacking in subs. 68-72 was a really experimental period for the medium.

Yeah, I'd love to watch more stuff from the 60s, but no one's willing to sub it. I made my anime club watch the first (the only one subbed) episode of Star of the Giants and they seemed to enjoy it. I don't blame anyone for not wanting to sub all 182 of the anime that invented filler, but man, there's a lot of weird, experimental shit in there. I'd like to watch at least some of it.

The first episode especially has a lot of creative mixing live-action and animation, like in this scene (sorry, don't know how to make a video of it)

Recently got around to watching it, and was pleasantly surprised to find myself loving it. Mystery was great, which was complimented by countryside setting. It really knows how to create tension and ambient atmosphere as it manage d to make me feel uneasy. I heard it's a VN adaptation and there is also a manga, so definitely going to check it out sometime in the future.
What are you thoughts?

What would Hanyuu do for a cream puff? That delicious delicacy she craves is something she would probably do ANYTHING for. What an amazingly powerful sweet, to be so effective on an alien-god. And yet, it would be so easy to tamper with that cream puff, to make Hanyuu move to your whims. Put in something spicy, and she'll cry. Put in an aphrodisiac, and she'll pounce you before long. But perhaps, if you fill it with something else…
Collecting a large amount of semen can be hard, but it's worthwhile as to your aims. Preparing it all in a large jar, hidden away in your room, is easy, if time consuming. Once you've got what you need, all you need is a syringe, and a cream puff. Hell, if you felt like going faster, you could probably go to Angel Mort and talk to all the otaku customers; they'll be sure to contribute to the nefarious scheme. However, you have later plans that would interfere with this, so you decide not to do that.
You start simple. Every day, you give Hanyuu a completely normal, completely innocent cream puff. This becomes a habit, a thing between the two of you. At lunch time at school, you open up your bento box and pass a cream puff to Hanyuu. She starts looking at you with sad, teary eyes if you take too long after a while, and that's when you know when to move to step two.
Now you start giving her the cum puffs. And miraculously, amazingly, she doesn't notice. What degeneracy must she have gotten up to in her youth? The idea boggles your mind, but furthers your boner. A step three and four are sure to follow after that showing. Each cum puff you serve her makes the next easier, your hands less sweaty, but your mind continues to race. You do this for a few months, in preparation for the next step.
Step three is finding out just how accustomed to the taste she is. You prepare a handmade cum puff, without any cream within it. You pass it to her, sweating bullets, screaming in your mind that this was a bad idea. She takes it with a smile and a hau~, puts it in her mouth, takes a bite, and swallows. The sound of her throat moving, the sign that this dirty goddess is eating YOUR semen, is both hot and scary as fuck.
…She takes another bite. She doesn't notice. You have successfully accustomed Hanyuu to the taste of cum instead of cream in her cream puffs. Excellent.
And now for step four. You get her a drink of milk to start the club day off right. Needless to say, it isn't milk. As she guzzles it down, youPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I believe we are on the brink of facing off against a massive purge of the unofficial Touhou OST uploads.

I have been seeing more and more copyright claims these days.

This Moriya thread: https://moriyashrine.org/threads/touhou-20-osts-possibly-being-removed-from-youtube.2505/

The TOUHOUMUSIC subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/TOUHOUMUSIC/

And this site: https://nautilus.nekoweb.org/en/writing/touhou-death/touhou-death

Are so far the best sources of information of what is getting taken down.
I think we can confirm that something very strange is happening with the news that PC98 songs are getting wiped off SoundCloud.
See: https://www.reddit.com/r/TOUHOUMUSIC/comments/1kp6efv/even_pc98_got_copyright_struck_come_on/


All I can say, WTF is happening. I hope the more historic uploads of the OST don't get wiped…

It is humbling to see how much the opinion on Touhou has changed in just a few weeks. No matter the longevity of the series, the consistent lenient behavior towards fanworks (provided they follow the few existing rules), or the public image ZUN tries to sell, a few fuck-ups can really make anyone fall from grace.
And NO, I am not an AI "shill". In fact, I believe nothing the AI creates will ever be art. I don't like how all of a sudden uploading music seems to be against the rules either, with no prior heads up, after so many fucking years where that was the norm and nobody bat an eye.
So I am not deflecting. And yes, right now I believe ZUN has fucked up. I want him to explain himself, and not act all lofty when his actions are causing such a shit show. Then whoever wanted could form an actual opinion with the actual reality of the situation. I just find it ridiculous how a few mistakes after, and a few posts into the thread, ZUN's entire existence seems to be called into question, with somebody saying he "may be friends with the guy from 2ch" without even knowing who that guy is (Hiroyuki, jfc), and that everyone who has known Touhou for more than 5 minutes and isn't a secondary (i.e., can speak Japanese) wouldn't even call into question that because it is braindead obvious they are in good terms. Or someone else saying now Touhou actually isn't a one-man game, when ZUN has actually put into the credits the few times he has used help from other people (e.g. th19), and doesn't make fucking sense because there's no way in hell anybody who had participated in such a phenomenon as Touhou wouldn't have done everything posible on this Earth to demand compensation.
Obviously, actual discussion is going to be poluted by people who will just shout their opinion without any knowledge on the matter, simply because they think their fringe, retarded opinion, has now an opportunity to foster.

>>1389
I think you're strongly underestimating the severity of AI incorporation. ZUN could have been convicted of sexual assault or child pornography and the backlash would not be as bad (knowing the average Touhou fan). It represents the cessation of human efforts to tyranny. The cessation of a medium to a handful of corporations that have been antagonistic to all demographics. The cessation of creatives having any ownership of their creations. The cessation of visibility and communication to a deluge of irrelevant drivel after years of already being punished by biased algorithms.

It very strongly affects many people and ZUN sold himself as a cottage little guy, so it represents this entire doujin scene being closed off into an AI only shithole like so many other mediums. What good could come from this? Will conventions have to let in AI spammers? Will Touhou forums have to let in AI spammers? Will contests have to let in AI spammers? Of course! It'd be hypocritical when the king is naked. You take one look at the turdstorm AI spammers have left the areas they're free to reign, and you basically see what ZUN has rewarded the creatives that supported him with.

Frankly there's very little that can invalidate 30 years of work, but destroying every Touhou outlet and a significant portion of the doujin scene for the people who supported you for years would do it.

Anon, I dislike AI as strongly as you do, and my previous post accounts for it, but I do think you are overreacting in a climate ripe for overreaction.
I am glad I am not the only one who thinks AI is a disgrace for art. I have already argued in that other site why I believe that to be the case. But that left aside, I don't think you are actually evaluating the situation.
Touhou 20 is not the product of AI. It still is a creation of ZUN, at least until confirmed otherwise. He did not ask Adobe AI to "make th20 for me lol". He probably has used it in moderation, so maybe 5%, 10%, or 20% tops (I seriously hope not more than that) is the result of AI. ZUN most probably has thought out the story, designed the characters, composed the music and made most if not all of the programming himself, and then cut corners for some of the smaller parts he probably found tedious.
Not that I like it. But getting some help from an AI is not the same as AI generators (I refuse to ever call them artists)'s spawns of the devil that little by little plague the web. He is not welcoming purely AI generated fanart, at least not until he says so himself.
ZUN's opinion on this should also be taken in account. From what I know (and this one I haven't actually heard from him myself, but only read from other anons), ZUN seems to have a rather lenient stance on AI. His boomer glasses reflect to him a similar situation that what must have happened when he was experimenting with computers. Yet he was able to create his oeuvre with them, so for him creators should take advantage of that shiny, new tool to create something original and exciting, like he did in his time. It is clear he didn't choose the AI he used lightly either, since Adobe AI at least advertises itself as "respectful of artists" and only "enhancing their imagination" (you can look up their website).
Now, I think there are more abstract reasons why AI cannot make art, but ZUN probably isn't taking them into account. What I want to say, I guess, is that you can think ZUN has fucked up, but the Internet drama around this, as it tends to happen in imageboards, has sometimes been bombastic, painting ZUN in the bleakest of lights possible, instead of arguing about the reality of the "incident" (if I may say so).

>>1403
I can see why it's so contentious. Youtube has been the primary gateway for westerners to get into Touhou for as long as it existed on the platform. How many times have you seen it said where one's first exposure was a video of Night of Nights, UN Owen Was Her, and Bad Apple? It's ingrained in fandom culture, such that Ruw doing his thing to make way for the official OST to be published to youtube music feels like a stab in the back to the fans who paved the way here.
The main issue comes from the complacency of both sides. The western fandom has been allowed to by and large do as it pleased for twenty years since the guidelines on fancontent have been left greatly unenforced. Touhou has always been this mystical thing in the west as ZUN never had any presence there to claim it, but at a glacial pace he's moving onto large platforms such as Steam and now Youtube. If I hazard a guess I'd say music rips will be taken down in waves as more and more of the music makes its way there officially.
>I could see if this affected gameplay videos
The danger to that is from Youtube's end with their hit and miss detection programs. Since the OST for 19-20 is on Youtube by the actual owners of the music, Youtube's system can trigger copyright automatically, such as the case with mtb's enoko video. We'll have to see how it all shakes out in the long run.
>but people don't use youtube as their primary way of listening to music, do they?
You'd be surprised at the amount of norms who do this. I used to do this before I realized I could just download ZUN's entire collection to my phone and let a local music player app handle it. Music discovery is another factor which Youtube is good for overall, which feeds back into the earlier point as a gateway into Touhou.

The story and setting got re-written since they didn't have a plan and just responded to what worked and what fans seemed to like. The early premise seems to be Ataru and Shinobu (remember her?) being accosted by Urusei Yatsura on a weekly basis when they just want to get on with their lives and get married. Lum was just going to be a recurring harlot who is trying to break them up because she wrongly thinks that Ataru is engaged to her. Then the story was retooled to be about Lum and Ataru being together with Shinobu as the side character.

Then it was retooled AGAIN to focus mostly on Tomobiki high school - making it the prototypical high school anime. Characters like Sakura, Mendo, or Ryunosuuke have nothing to do with the original premise, but they end up taking a majority of screen time once they're introduced.

Rumiko's later works were more planned out with a more consistent premise because she and her team had more experience in what fans wanted. If they knew how the series would play out, UY would probably be a supernatural series with no aliens centered on the high school and town from the get go. Other than electricity and flying around, the fact Lum is an alien is irrelevant for 75% of later UY stories. Could have easily made her and the Oni come from subspace to begin with.

>Art style

Starts off as a very 70s looking series with very skinny females, and unrealistic proportions. Ataru is especially unrecognizeable in early chapters. Rumiko's art style evolves, with more realistic proportions and more curves for the women. Faces are quinticential 80s style.

>Focus


Starts as Shinobu and Ataru are accosted by "Urusei Yatsura" with some inspired by Japanese folklore. Then it's a Lum and Ataru will they or won't they story focused on Tomobiki high school. Introduction of Mendo and Onsen Mark becoming a regular character, and Sakura becoming the school nurse, mark the change. Lum spends less and less time wearing her tiger striped bikini.

She was supposed to be a one-off villainess after all. Urusei Yatsura was supposed to be an episodic series where Ataru and Shinobu struggled with Ataru's curses for ghosts, aliens and his penchant for womanizing.

Pretty much done with Touhou, was basically crazy about it up until the news dropped last week. I don't see much of a point continuing to discuss it, the fanworks empower the games while the games fuel the fanwork, continuing to participate in this subculture will just fund and legitimize another AI dev. They never stop at backgrounds, there's no future for this series. I guess that goes for all "big" series, should they be given an out for being bigger than the average AI vagrant? I'd say no, because what's put on display here isn't what made the series good nor beloved, it's just something generated by a third party. Maybe many of you would forgive him if he backpedals, but for me I feel like even getting into these controversies is a failure of character, and it doesn't look like he's being remorseful sending his lawyer dog out to silence critics.

Oyuki didn't do anything wrong unless you count being cheap. Benten's shenanigans were also all on the level. They don't compare to Ryoko at all.

Ryoko didn't suffer too much, admittedly. I didn't really mind though, she mostly only tortured Mendo and Tobimaro. Tobimaro absolutely didn't deserve it, which made it a lot funnier. And Mendo being the voice of reason was a fun contrast to his usual self.

We know Rumiko has an interest in mythology, and that Lum, Benten, and Oyuki, are clear parllels to real world mythological figures. Ran is the odd-one out and for 40 years fans have tried to figure out which specific mythological creature Ran actually is.

She has some kind of life-drain kiss so she's a Succubus? Is that the European variety or a Japanese one? No one's ever been able to pin her down exactly.

It's entirely possible Rumiko didn't think of anything specific so it's a red-herring.

So I'm sure we're all familiar with that episode of uy where the school gets a new hard ass teacher who instantly starts crushing on lum (can't remember episode number). anyway, sensei gets called a lolicon for being into lum-chan. but lum isn't what we'd think of a loli. she's married, full sized, and has big tits even if she's the same age as ataru which is still kinda old for a loli. So I went and looked around at the loli hentai that was being made in the mid 80s and so far its what you'd expect. but its not like i'm the lolimaster or something and know what i'm talking about... r-right fed-chan? so did the word's meaning change? did the whole flat chested bratty midget thing come later? afaik lolicon means like "pedophile" in modern Japanese. gotta be a loli history guide somewhere. Anyway I'm high as fuck and probably reading too much into things. Gonna go take a nap.

You can think of early UY as a nexus that many, many, film makers, writers, and animators, were part of who then went on to other things.

Kanako's films were part of the "pink film" genre of erotic softcore films and ran under the Nikkatsu Roman Porno line. So it's telling that right after UY, he's directing erotic films that are quasi pornographic.

If you take a listen to what she is actually saying, the localizers were actually having some fun. Shinobu is being referred to as a Zashiki-Warashi, as she was sometimes compared to early on in the series. This is a yokai that resembles a child and is commonly shown with a similar haircut as Shinobu.

"Ep. 9, Story 17: "Princess Kurama, Sleeping Beauty"



First Impression: Kurama's first impression of Shinobu is not at all flattering. Kurama calls Shinobu "Zashikiwarashi," which are household guardian spirits in the Toohoku ("Northeast") region of Japan, which is the area of Honshuu (the largest of the four main islands of Japan) north of Kantoo, and is known for being cold and covered in snow a lot of the time. These spirits typically have the appearance of a plain, immature, round-faced, rosy-cheeked girl with a bob haircut, which happens to describe Shinobu very nicely at this point in the series.

Rumiko added Ryu-chan instead of starting a new comic because she was bored of UY. Ryu actually fits the new setting and theme of the series which is revolving around the whacky hijinks at Tomobiki high school. Benten is more of a left-over from the original design where the comic would revolve around alien-yokai that show up and harass Ataru because he's unlucky.

Sorry if I replied so late, but I agree with your statements. But I will form a quick counterargument that some people would make about your opinion on the backgrounds of the reboot.

Many would probably say that having high quality backgrounds won't matter because of how fast the reboot's pace is. On top of that, some people may say that you're nitpicking every last detail of the original so you can give it a much lower rating.

Now I don't really believe in that counterargument but I decided to write it out for you so can debate it.

As for standalone viewing I can agree that this episode is not very good.
I also did rewatch the original's first episode just for reference and I can see how it does things way better the reboot. Like it being actually funny (mostly part 2 of the episode).

Overall thou I can understand your arguments on why my ratings for the original are null. I just wanted to give the reboot a shot.

She's a crow-goblin and human hybrid, rather than a pure blooded native crow goblin. It's relevant since her race are these tiny little crows (even the women). This means her samurai dad stuck his penis into one of these little crow ladies, and out popped Kurama. This might be why they had trouble finding a mate for her.

Tip: Patchouli's lasers don't hit you if you stand perfectly in center, the laser hitbox vanishes before it visually does. The fire projectiles also have a smaller hitbox on the sides and the way patchy shoots them always leaves big gaps between them, pay more attention to the smaller yellow projectiles there. Lastly, as I always recommend for EoSD, don't be afraid of bombing. The spellcards are RNG when it comes to density and speed due to the leftover PC-98 hidden rank system and some projectiles (especially Sakuya's knives) have a wonky hitbox that can hit you from a longer distance than you think.

Lum the Forever's script is very messy, but the story is mostly straight forward and you can think of it as "Lum meets an Old One".

The tree holds the seal on a yokai that drains the lifeforce (seemingly the most important figure in town) to feed itself. By killing the tree, they unknowingly unleash this being and continues to grow until an Oni princess was able to calm it and a new tree planted to contain it. Only that it led to her eventual death.

The story in the present is a repeat of the cycle, and
Lum fufills the role of village elder and the Oni princess, so she gets her life force drained and is going to calm the being leading to her death. The being is initially an egg, then a fetus, and it seems very child like and wants a mother figure, only being child like it doesn't know limits and seems to kill its mother figure.

Have you played Demon's Souls (2009)? It's another HP Lovecraft inspired story, where a vastly powerful being can shape reality, but it's child like and it needs a mother to lull it to sleep to calm its vast power.

The being wants Lum to itself, so it tries to erase people's memories of Lum. Then after lum is drained, it starts sapping on Ten. The tree grows powerful enough that it starts producing a fog that when breathed in connects the dreaming person to the tree's power and manifests their dreams as reality.

Mendo figures this out and starts a war of the Zaibatsus to force everyone to wish that things went back to normal and to destroy the manifested dream worlds in the cross fire. It's hare brained but kinda works?

Ataru simply wishes for normalcy as well and jogs like Lum used to job. When he falls asleep and connects with the being he wishes for Lum back. The fetus like being finally understands, that Lum belongs to Ataru and the rest of the world, and relinquishes her and goes back to sleep. Presumably another tree will be planted on it to seal it.

As I said the script? Messy with pacing issues and the story is hard to follow. It likely got re-writes for more action (hense the ending war) when it should have stayed a spooky mystery story. The overall story might have worked better as an original story. If it was called "Legend of the Oni Princess" the film would likely be much better received and liked.

For plus sides: some amazing scenes, score, and animation sequences. Mendo's date with Shinobu and his dream sequence are highlights of the film.

The symbolism is pretty obvious: Urusei Yatsura anime is over so move on. The first thing the being manifests is Lum on a tv screen, and the last image we see is Lum on a tv screen that fades away. The series was over, and the film is meant to be the send-off to it and a message to the fanbase. The fantastical being birthed by felling the tree is representitive of the Urusei Yatsura fanbase, and their obsession with lum is unhealthy. Go out into the real world and find a real woman and let Lum go. For message, Evangelion has a similar meta message for anime otaku.

This is unsourced from imdb, so take it with a grain of salt, but it does make sense. The next film is a direct almost 1:1 adaption of the comic, and then the next film was made much, much, later. To confirm or deny this, you'd have to check anime magazines from around this time, and most certainly someone at some point would have commented on it. The promotional interviews for Final Chapter would be the most likely spot where this would come up.

Sadly there's very little scanning of proper anime magazines from the 80s. There's thousands upon thousands of them so I don't blame them.

Self explanatory. For me it would be three late 80s Studio Comet produced TV shows all with Hirosho Kanazawa as character designer and heavily involved as an animation director. I believe all three are manga adaptations, and they all have the similar kind of pudgy faced caricatured character designs that are really unique. High School Kimengumi, Tsuide ni Tonchinkan and Meimon! Daisan Yakyuubu. The latter two I watched raw, with Tsuide ( screenshots shown here) being a well executed slapstick comedy, albeit a bit repetitive. Meimon is an incredibly well done sports drama with storyboards that feel somewhat reminiscent of Dezaki, as it was his student, Hiroshi Fukutomi who directed it. The animation quality was outstandingly good and consistent, full of subtle weighty convincing motion during the baseball games. Kimengumi has its movie subbed and I enjoyed it, but the series has yet to be picked up.

I remember when /a/ would do story time whenver a new manga chapter was released. Those were fun and interesting threads. I feel like editor-kun was able to keep the author's autism in check when the series wasn't as popular as it is now. And as a consequence, the whole story suffers from it. The organization using the orphanage system to raise child soldiers and then deploying them as cannon fodder was always in the background of this setting, but hinting darkness and outright showing abuse and gore are completely different hings. I think the anime has too much shock that it becomes less shocking. Shocking things are more impactful when you are wrapped up in the mc's naivety and positive attitude. You could forget the bad stuff while reading the manga, because chapters were months apart. But that isnt how anime releases work, so you just get bombarded with negative imagery with little chance to cooldown or recover.

>I think the anime has too much shock that it becomes less shocking
I disagree. I watched the anime (including dotds) before i read the manga and i found it to be quite tame in comparison to what''s actually shown in the manga. At some point in the manga during the ganja squad story there's a literal sex scene involving Pakkoyan and Vueko that's absent in the anime and a lot of the "shocking" stuff is cut.

Up to episode TWENTY-EIGHT (28) because the host repeatedly forgets to mention what episode we're at.

Hunter X Hunter (1999) ranks in the top 10 best anime of all time in the lists of multiple decorated experts in the field of japanese visual arts the world over. It's so consensual, it's become a joke within the field to say you're hunterxhunterizing(1999) something when you try to argue something has unquestionable widespread appeal and exceptional quality of production and execution (the joke is sarcastic in tone because only Hunter X Hunter (1999) has ever been able to achieve it – it's like reminding the people arguing for the virtues of whatever they're defending exactly the standard they're trying to compare their stuff to).

Oshii used Mendo as a vector for his militerism fetish while the comic merely had him have some glasses wearing bodyguards. Did he go too far? The show makes Mendo a tad bit more menacing than perhaps Rumiko had intended. The two-parter where they're used by Mendo to try to thwart Atru from getting Lum back makes Mendo a bit of a Bond villain.

The Mendo Army: Good or bad? It was a nice excuse to see various bits of German hardware from the Wehrmacht or Bundeswehr from MP40s, Leopard 1A5. It basically vanishes after Oshii leaves.

I agree entirely. Sometimes people talk about Mendo's noble qualities and I can tell, they are approaching it from the anime. Not that I think Rumiko dislikes Mendo, but she's pretty clear that his better qualities are ultimately affectations, even if he won't fuck outside the school in a cheesy pleasure dome.

I think it's just basic writing where you need foils. He overlaps with Lum and Ataru as a character. He is normally well meaning and polite like Lum, but Ataru angers him and you can see his sword strikes as similar to Lum's lightning. And like Ataru, he's a wannabe lady's man virgin.

Anime gives Mendo a bit of an edge, which culminates in the S2 finale where he kidnaps Lum under the guise of helping her and making her his bride. It's probably the most outright evil thing Mendo has done.

This is just whining about the endings, since Inaba is tied into it and likely created to head off any chance of Shinbu and Ataru thinking of marriage in Boy Meets Girl.

A better ending might have Lum and Ataru breakup, so Shinobu and Ataru decide to go through with the marriage after all. I would still have Lum and Ataru back together in the end. I'd probably have Shinobu and Mendo paired up.

Inaba breaks up the main dynamic of the cast.

If you can work it into the story and get some nice gags, then fine. I can see a nice story setup where Shinobu keeps cancelling on them, so Ataru and Mendo get suspicious and start stalking her. They then misinterpret what they see, thinking something much more sinister is going on, the boys paranoia reaches a fever pitch, and they strike out to save Shinobu from the clutches of evil, then after hijinks, it turns out she's dating some random and nothing sinister.

Literally anything better than god damn Inaba. I don't think that tool ever once stood up for himself and let Shinobu walk all over him. Ataru and Mendo would have both called out her bullshit.

Are there any sites out there in the depths of the Japanese web anything like comics.org that list what mangas ran in what magazine for a given issue?
Ones that are more specific and only list a few magazines are fine. Any sort of listings going into the publication history of magazines besides Shounen Jump would be useful.

I wasn't that sure about Creamy Mami at the start but some of the episodes were crazy and surreal, which I liked. I was going to jump into Persia but it's sub status isn't as clear and Creamy Mami kind of burned me out. I'm currently watching Nanoha Strikers.

I liked Nurse Angel Ririka a lot too and it's a shame it was apparently cut short. I'm interested in if the manga has any additional content (like the Tokimeki Tonight manga vs the anime) but based on the length, probably not.

The manga of Hime-chan no Ribbon is one of my favorite magical girl things. The anime is good too but doesn't have a good conclusion imo.

In response to >>1262 I'll make a brief post about why colors were so damned good in cel animation versus modern productions.

1. Paint

They're quite literally using real world paints on plastic cels to photograph so the colors are much better quality and more realistic.

2. Film stock

They were shot on 16mm or 35mm film, and film stock had strived for decade for rich strong colors and strong contrasts. Most television anime was shot in 16mm film, and 35mm used for theatrical films or television OPs.

Then they shifted to digital formats, and with them digital color spaces and palettes. More washed out, lacking contrast, overly bright, like there's a haze or some kind of bright light out. This is also an issue for live action productions.

Clamp had the resources from 11 successful manga projects and had done 3 other ovas before launching card captor sakura with almost 10+ years of industry connections. And considering they were also a group of relatively attractive women in a field dominated by lonely men… maybe they just made pretty girl faces at everyone to get good deals for their first big anime :o

Another aspect was that the 90s was the last good decade for the japanese economy. And Clamp made a ton of money during the 'good' times of the japanese economy and was able to dump an absurd amount of it into ccs. Not only that, but there were lots of experienced animation studios competing against one another due to the good economy being able to afford multiple studios existing so they were able to get 'more' for their money. Keep in mind, these were purely japanese studios with japanese employees whose profession was to make japanese anime.

Then japan slowly spiraled into a forever recession and lots of the older experienced studios shut down or consolidated. Companies started switching to digital cg to save money, and started outsourcing to south korea and china. It became harder and harder to get real japanese artists to work on real japanese anime and those that did remained in the field would often complain about long hours, low pay, and horrible deadlines which resulted in lower quality products.

1997 was actually a bad year for Japan's economy. 1992 saw the economic bubble of the late 80s burst, and had already started causing a slow decline, and then 1997 saw the Asian financial market crash, which damaged Japan's economy even more. Even the mainstream Japanese music industry, which saw a boom when people could no longer afford houses and other big picture stuff, so would spend more on consumer goods, saw its peak right at 1998 when Sakura began to air.

NHK, Kodansha, and Sogo Vision funded Cardcaptor Sakura, not Clamp themselves. As a Kodansha manga serialized in Nakayoshi they would probably be the primary rights holders, and would be giving Clamp some royalties from any money made off of the franchise. Not that Clamp didn't have any say over how the anime went, but it's not like it was their project.

>Keep in mind, these were purely japanese studios with japanese employees whose profession was to make japanese anime.


Massive outsourcing to Asia for lower level jobs like inbetweening was already extremely common by then, Gundam Wing for example would start with layouts and rough key animation from a Japanese Studio (Dove) and then all the animation would be finished up over in Asia by their overseas subsidiaries.

>Then japan slowly spiraled into a forever recession and lots of the older experienced studios shut down or consolidated.


Like who? Sunrise, Toei, Tatsunoko, Pierrot, Deen, Ashi Pro, Madhouse, Gainax, Production IG, AIC, OLM etc, all the big established studios of the 90s persisted into the 2000s. It was more marginal studios like E&G that died out in the early 2000s.

The answer to why Cardcaptor Sakura looks as good as it does, is likely just because Madhouse gave it a good schedule and good staff. They also did X 1999 a few years earlier, which looks phenomenal as well.

A little off topic but kinda wanted to clarify a few things.
>Last good decade
The economy is still pretty high all things considered, not exactly bubble era tier but still in the top 5 GDP surprisingly.
>Outsourcing to other countries
That’s has been done since the 60s, the golden bat anime for instance had some work done in korea which is also why it had a following there but couldn’t say it was Japanese. Also sunrise did some stuff as well, not as much but then all those Korean bootleg knockoffs begin to make much more sense as to where they got the character designs from lol

Don't think we've done a proper /vnt/ event yet, so for this month (running from April 3rd - May 3rd) we are doing a high score challenge for Touhou 6 (Embodiment of Scarlet Devil)!
If you don't have this game, it's pretty easy to find with google or nyaa. I recommend using an English patch.
Very simple to participate - just upload a replay (results screenshot is optional). Make sure the replay is the only file you upload or it won't be attached (will try and fix this soon) Be nice. Don't cheat.
I've played this game a few times over the past few years, but have finally started to try and get decent enough to 1CC (still only on easy with max lives and bombs). I'm sure at least a few of you can beat this with higher difficulties.
Top players will be immortalized on a soon to be added static page.
If someone feels like making OC (not reposting existing stuff) they might get on that page too. Get shooting!

It's a little bit of everything. Aside from the gameplay, music, art (despite people poking fun at it), cute girls, and being in the right place at the right time on 2000s internet, I think it grew because the world is as open-ended as it is. There isn't a cool plot or any defining climax, and at the end of every incident everything goes back to the status quo, but that's why it's so appealing. Gensokyo is a world, not like those made by modern worldbuilders who over-detail everything from the start without any purpose and think they're going to be the next Tolkien, but like Wind in the Willows: a place you can daydream of, between old and new, between fantasy and reality, and as whimsical as can be. What you see in the games and writings is just a portrait, a brief snapshot of that world, but the rest is on the other side. Artists and writers and even completely unskilled fans latched onto that so they could explore it.
Seeing picrel this morning helped me put it into words. They're on some whimsical errand in their old-fashioned motor car, and you can imagine what happens before, during, and after. At the end, everything turns out fine. I daydream a lot, so this is all a personal view, but I think Touhou is something stronger than fantasy: it's a fairy tale. That's what makes it different and special.

If you want to see a small part of how it grew, here's an oekaki board that goes back to before PCB was released. It's fun seeing people make art for characters as they come out. https://coolier.net/oekaki/191.htm

You posted this on /a/, didn't you? I respect the grind. Here's a recipe I found on the Tabasco website that seems worth exploring.

Santa Fe Western Omelet Tacos

Ingredients:
>TABASCO® Green Jalapeño Sauce (3 tablespoons)
>Vegetable oil for deep-frying
>5 (8-inch) corn tortillas, cut in half
>15 large eggs
>1/4 cup half-and-half
>10 tablespoons olive oil, divided
>1 cup diced smoked ham
>1 cup diced red bell peppers
>1 cup diced onion
>1 cup diced, seeded tomatoes
>1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
>1/2 cup sliced green onions

Preparation:
>Heat vegetable oil to 375°F in a deep fryer or skillet; add tortillas a few at a time and fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and keep warm.

>Combine eggs, half-and-half, and TABASCO® Green Sauce in a large bowl and beat until combined.

>Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in an 8-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons each of ham, bell pepper, onion, and tomatoes and cook 1 minute; stir in 1/2 cup egg mixture. Cook until set, then flip.

>Sprinkle omelet with 2 tablespoons cheese and fold in half. Place one fried tortilla half on a plate and top with omelet; place another tortilla half on top. Repeat process with remaining ingredients. Serve omelets with sour cream and guacamole and sprinkle with green onions.

So who would you rather date? Say you had a meeting with the truck and got isekai'd into a Rumic 2D paradise. Now you have a choice between these two ladies.

>EXHIBIT A. Lum
Perks? She's an alien princess of a mighty and powerful space empire. That's a big step up from your shitty earth bound existence. Not only are you never short of funds but she has a personal army and a UFO to boot. The downside is she will use these things against you if you upset her. She's not entirely used to earth customs, which can be an advantage and a disadvantage depending on your taste. she' also hawt as hell and not afraid to flaunt it. The downside is she appears to be some sort of sexual sadist who shows love by frying her darling with volts of electric. Her ability to fly and access to a UFO mean you'll never escape her. But I guess that's fine if your into masochism.

>EXHIBIT B. Shinobu
Cute, petite, and none of the alien stuff that make Lum so weird. She's not as good looking as either, a bit pasty and thin compared to Lum with breasts that'd make a lolicon drool. Cute over sexy. But Shinobu is confident, upstanding, intelligent, and usually clam. This makes her fairly reliable in serious situations that require the use of common sense and a functional human brain. Her earthly human family should be somewhat easier to deal with than Lum's. By far her worst drawback is her explosive temper and ability to throw around furniture like a pro wrestler. So much as glance at another girl and you'll risk a steel chair to the head.

So which will it be? Who do you choose? Is there someone else feeling left out?

Personally, I'd marry Lum for the political connections and make Shinobu my concubine, unless the Oni tolerate polygamy then she'll be our sweet co-wife as God intended.

The original series premise is normal couple Shinobu and Ataru being accosted by "Urusei Yatsura" (obnoxious aliens), which then shifted to having Lum being more prominent but still as a foil for the couple. So the early stakes are how Ataru can reuinite with Shinobu. That's why the first OP is so heavy in focusing on this.

After that however, the series is retooled with Lum as the main heroine. Shinobu is now clearly not dating Ataru, but she's still in the series, often as one of the four main characters (with the addition of Mendo). Rumiko clearly doesn't want to ditch her, but she also doesn't know what to do with her.

Meanwhile if the anime for the first two seasons wants to fill time, they often give Shinobu or Mendo something to do. Shinobu has a lot of scenes where she's still scheming or seething at Lum, which is mostly gone in the manga.

So it's still weird to see the early series still play this up, and to see Shinobu even showing any damn interest in Ataru at all. She's still willing to make up with Ataru and is glad he's showing interest in her.

Later Shinobu is just another girl for Ataru to be leecherous towards, and then punish him with violence. There's almost no hints that they were going to get engaged.

Also as written originally: the space babes are exotic and sexually provocative, while the Japanese Shinobu is chaste and demure. There is meant to be a big contrast between the two, while later the line is much more blurred. Shinobu gets more outfits and fan service and Lum becomes quite chaste and innocent herself.

Is it me or does the online lain fandom miss the entire point of the show? I'm pretty sure the message isn't that Lain is a cyber goddess or pushing some kind of tech gnosticism or accelerationist pseudo-philosophy.

The general themes seem to be on Japanese family breakdown, lonliness and atomization, and technology causing a hyperreal breakdown of the world. There's also the conspiracy history of the internet being invented by aliens but also theological stuff about the soul and religion too, which I'm guessing is just added on as a way to create artificial depth.

No. Lain isn't making a metaphysical claim about the nature of reality. Its really more of a sociological point. In the past, we drew a line between reality and the representational world of print media and when computers became a thing we drew a line between irl and cyberspace. But now everyone's connected and always using the internet, stuff happens online and moves into the meatspace so the line bertween irl and cyberspace has become really blurry. The vast amount of unfiltered information makes it hard to know what's true or false so we end up confused and misled. You see this happen to Lain. She gets wrapped up with a hacker group online run by Masami, but it just turns out that Masami is trying to get revenge on his former employer and he seems to be luring teens into suicide for the fun of it. The narrator tells us Masami is dead but how do you know that's true? He sounds like an authority figure, you know those voice overs in documentaries, but it could easily be fake. Maybe Masami is dead and one of his flunkies is using his persona over the wired?

The tone of SEL is very negative. You see a kid playing a computer game not realizing his mom is dead, the power lines and machines are always dark and scary looking, Lain's entire family is dysfunctional. Her father is addicted to his computer, her mother is cold and distant, her sister is living a double life having sex with older men, and Lain starts acting cruel towards Arisu for the thrill of it. There's hamfisted alien imagery that symbolizes how tech is like an invader colonizing our lives and conspiracies about human experiments. The show is mourning the loss of a more traditional Japan so its not accelarationist.

The movie is REALLY cool, but the script is messy and it probably would have worked better without the UY branding. It's quite artistic and cinematic, with a very unusual storyline and messy script so it completely alienates the UY fanbase, and people outside the fandom won't see it simply because they think they need to see the rest of the series, or the series doesn't interest them.

I think if it was called "Legend of the Oni Princess" it would probably have more discussion among mainstream film critics.

Taking a shot in the dark here to see if anybody might be able to lead me in the right direction.
Im trying to find complete raw in any video format of the original broadcast version of the Hellsing TV anime. If you are not familiar with what that is the show originally had many scenes redone for what i guess was more "consistentcy" after it aired and for home release. This isnt about what is better just interested in something complete to watch.
I found a few random episodes here and there but not the whole show complete or unsubbed/dubbed.
Obviously some sub groups back in the day had them for their uploads but those groups are all dead and gone, nyaa doesnt seem to have it and all the resources i use to look for older stuff has dried up.

I don't know if this is much help. But there's this Youtuber called Johnny Joestar who worked on making remasters of some of Ishii's unreleased tracks for Hellsing (i.e. Golden Ball Heaven) and he even collaborated with Ishii to make some original tracks.
Anyhow a while back he did a comparison video of the old broadcast footage and the final version. And in a followup video he mentioned that the broadcast footage was on Japanese DVDs before the "Rescript" versions. And that a youtuber named Shockwave984
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3nvXEz2MXA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0X7bCwE9aE
However, unfortunately, some people in the comments mention that this DVD doesn't actually contain broadcast footage, and it only appears this way due to the fact that the promotional art of the DVD uses screencaps from the broadcast footage.
So unfortunately, the broadcast footage might be lost media. I definitely remember seeing the old footage used in some AMVs and it's how Johnny Joestar got a lot of his footage, but I don't know if we'll ever find the full uncut versions of every episode. You might have better luck with the Lost Media Wiki.

>>801

Thanks for the reply.
As you can see in >>502 for the rescript releases they came out right after the series ended its initial broadcast run. This is the earliest release out of all the domestic and foreign releases of Hellsing TV.
However, they definately dont contain the broadcast version.
All the broadcast episodes i found on Veoh by dead fansubbers right before it died so if there was any more there its gone now.
Such a shame really.

 No.804

>>802
Then yeah, unfortunately it would seem that you'd have better luck going to the Lost Media Wiki and asking there given how good their track record is at finding stuff like this. There is a chance someone might have the episodes in their hard drive somewhere, I think it's the best/last shot for now.
Part of me wants to say that there's a chance that some obscure Hellsing fansite has it. But at the same time, I think Hellsing's popularity in the west only really got traction after the Rescript DVD already released, so that's the only thing that makes me think otherwise. But still worth a shot. Plus given we have documentation like AMVs and comparison images ( >>372 )
and whatnot, I think there's definitely SOME chance someone still has all the broadcast era episodes. I know it's pretty redundant to mention, but I think these are the only possible leads I can think of.
The other last (but unlikely) possibility is some of the foreign fansubs. Since I am fluent in Italian, I could also try looking into some Italian sites regarding the Knights fansub group mentioned before, but I doubt I'll find much. But I'll also try and see if I can find anything there, even if I think it'll probably be a dead-end.

 No.805

>>804

When i looked into it i believe soldats was the only group that fansubbed all 13 episodes. The eastern european groups i found episodes of had soldats on them so they subbed over their rips.
I believe knights only did the first one and stopped.

A LOT of manga chapters never got adapted, as the anime ended about 2/3 of the way through the show, so there was only a trickle of important stories that got adapted into OVA or films.

I think that my favorite Anime soundtrack is probably Akira's. I love the prog, traditional, and ambient fusion that the soundtrack has. Geinoh Yamashirogumi's entire discography is fantastic as well. Akira's soundtrack essentially has two sibling albums as well. Ecophony Rinne and Ecophony Gaia. Rinne is my favorite ambient album. If anyone enjoyed Akira's soundtrack I highly recommend listening to these if you haven't done so already.
Akira sample: https://files.catbox.moe/hfrn06.flac
Rinne: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvm2PUgP9_s
Gaia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS1wkJqU3G0

My second favorite is probably Turn A Gundam's soundtrack. I believe that it is by far Kanno's best. The soundtrack is nostalgic and refreshing. The mix of British folk sounds and wide open Coplandesque feeling pieces perfectly fit the show's Amerian setting.

This is a long one text post, so head's up:

Looking for a Mystery and-or Horror Anime that was on a T.V Anime Block (maybe be SyFy channel?*, or even Starz)

See, I watched on a anime on a TV block back around… I'd like to say around the 2010's, probably the mid-2010's at best guess.

I remember watching it around Halloween time as it appeared on either the Syfy channel or the Starz channel that was promoting "Mature"/"Adult" anime (blood, guts, nudity, etc) on either a limited anime focused block (to test the water or something) or of a pre-existing one 'just changed for the holiday season.

I've been trying to find this anime for years with no luck, but I do remember a few good chucks of the first episode that may help identify it; though again, it has been a good few years since 'so my memory is hazy on full details, and may have mixed or confused other details over the years .

The initial premise of the anime, if I recall correctly, was set in a high school where a fresh female teacher got a assigned to a new school 'specifically a class of trouble makers/perverts. Her colleague showing her the ropes is a buxom, blonde haired, sultry sexy type; with a red open long-sleeved blouse (or dress shirt) black mini-skirt[*?], garter sock stocking and heels.she has a very laid back attitude, with an aloof personality. given the school she works in is pretty bad (I think)

the new teacher is a glasses wearing, black haired 'braid (either a single braid ponytail, or braided twin-tails) a green jersey & matching sweatpants; which given to her by said colleague as protection, since as soon as she walking into the class a pair of male students are laying on the ground to take an up-skirt photo of her, which fails thanks to the track-suit given to her.her personality is quiet and a bit squirrel-ish, being a new teacher and all; the typical naive 'innocent heroine protagonist.

Her colleague steps in the class with her, where said students take an up-skirt photo of her instead 'which doesn't phase her, she teases the new teacher a bit & scolds the students while she introduces her to the class.

GTO artstyle and the "maggots that eat people and turn them into zombies" sounds like Tokko, which was broadcast on Syfy. But I don't think it has any characters or scenes like you describe in a high school, even if that scenario with the teachers sounds like something Fujisawa would write.

Not sure if it needs a thread but it's not like we're overflowing with discussion here ;), still I recently started watching the original HxH anime from 1999. I have never actually watched/read any of HxH and all I know of it was that it's permanently on hiatus, that cat girl (or boy?) that everyone posts a lot and the designs of the MC's. I decided to give it a shot for no real reason and so far I've been enjoying it.

I've watched YYH last year and enjoyed that as well. I found Season 1 of YYH to be good, 2 to be great the first half of 3 to be fantastic and then it kinda falls off after Sensui is introduced which was a shame, but it's nice to know that Togashi hasn't lost it with HxH.

I will say the first couple of episodes were...fine, I'm still not entirely sure what the plot is. Sure, Gon is trying to find his father and that's the goal but the whole idea of Hunters just seem odd. The fact Gon and that other hunter in the first episode were seen hunting animals and Gon wants to become a hunter kind of makes you think Hunter's are animal hunters, but then they add several characters who don't really fit that niche at all which makes the term "Hunter" kind of confusing. I guess it's more like a catchall term for someone who is exceptional and reliable in everything and thus the guy you go to for troubles, like an official bounty hunter or mercenary.

Character wise, I enjoy them a lot.What surprises me the most about this show was that I expected Gon to be the main part of the whole show and everyone else to sort of be secondary characters who don't really interact with one another since it's about Gon and his story, but it's actually pretty cool to see Leorio and Kurapika be together a lot and see their histories and helping each other out and such. I also like how Gon and Killua have a really normal friendship. They basically act like kids their age would act if they were friends. Which is very surprising since I thought Killua would be very stoic and not want to be friends with Gon but he opened up pretty damn quickly to him. Hell their dynamic feels like the other way around. Killua should be the MC and Gon is the friend who helps him out of his shell, but it's not like that at all.

Shameless shilling is shameless, but I have been operating an episode-by-episode 1999 Hunter x Hunter for a few months. Essentially I just slowly talk about each episode, what they do differently, and how they might contribute to 1999's overall alternative take on the material.
https://kurorosanime.tumblr.com/ (not a webmaster so blogposting is easier to do here)

I've made a few interesting discoveries while doing this- primarily in contrasting how Gon and Killua get characterized here in comparison to the manga, but also getting way more information on the alt ending that even more dedicated Japanese fans didn't know (entirely thanks to making a thread about it at the right time on 4/a/).

Nen is complicated to understand in both versions. But at least in 1999 you don't see a bunch of badly made censorship. Although the main reason why 1999's better is just the great amount of love put into every episode. Is a great ride from start to finish.

Its been years since I watched HxH 99. I've been meaning to do a rewatch one of these days since its a genuinely good show, adaptation, and directed by the great Kazuhiro Furuhashi.

Gonna reply to the points I find interesting so bear with me lol.
>who don't really fit that niche at all which makes the term "Hunter" kind of confusing
That is part of what maks HxH great. The title of "hunter" can mean anything and so allows Togashi to explore a variety of genres and settings. Hunters aren't constraint by expectations like other archetypes are like pirates or ninjas.
>and thus the guy you go to for troubles, like an official bounty hunter or mercenary.
That is one of many types of Hunters, yeah. In fact, I believe Togashi was partially inspired by the video game series Arc the Lad when it came to the conception of the manga since ideas and characters like Hunters, mode of transport and even Gon's father all look lifted straight out of Arc the Lad.
>What surprises me the most about this show was that I expected Gon to be the main part of the whole show
Yep, that is another great quality of HxH. The world isn't centered around the protagonist. Characters can and will interact heavily with each other and have a significant influence on the plot with or without Gon. He is only one kid after all. I also view Gon more like vehicle to see the world and characters from his perspective since I often find the seconary characters to be more interesting and better written. Not that its a bad thing, Gon is a very good shonen protagonist all things considered.
>and not want to be friends with Gon but he opened up pretty damn quickly to him.
The 1999 show actually somewhat changes their interaction. In the manga, it was Killua who introduces himself to Gon and seeks friendship since that is whole character early on, wanting to bond with others. Meanehile 1999 changes it to having Gon introducing himself to Killua. Its not really "bad" but I do prefer how the manga does it since lets Killua be more proactive.
>The fourth section (battleship) was also REALLY good,
Its basically an anime exclusive filler arc but a damn good one, especially since it gives the later phase more tension.

There's thousands upon thousands of tv specials, films, OVA, etc from 1970-2001. Unless you are very specifically obsessively collecting these rips and watching all of them then, no, it's not possible. There were so many thousands of OVA especially and most of them are forgotten about.

A lot never even got DVD releases since they are from companies that went under, or are obscure enough no one has cared enough.

Do you follow Lonelychaser, Kineko, Oprhan and others? Pretty much all of those are new to me.

I thought I knew the OVA era, but I had only seen the dozens of most notable. Truth is, most of these are pretty forgettable or cliche as well so you are not missing much. The big famous series all got DVD/BD releases, so everything else is the shit even Japan doesn't care about.

 No.3420

Idk, what's your reference frame for "obscure"? Because to the wider anime fandom, all but a few dozen titles from before 2000 are hella obscure. Uchuu Senkan Yamato ranks at #4304 most popular on MAL with 30K members, only a third of those listing it as completed. Most modern anime fans didn't know what Urusei Yatsura was before the remake.
If you're into cel anime, those are the most obvious shows in the world of course. But when was the last time you heard something about Skyers 5, Wakakusa no Charlotte, Rainbowman, Moeru Onii-san or Teki wa Kaizoku? There are a few hundred people outside of Japan who care about these titles. They're obscure, a niche within a niche within a niche. This is also reflected in how many titles remain untranslated. Having been available for decades but not having an English translation isn't exactly a sign of popularity.
And then there's the stuff that isn't even in the databases of course. People are still digging up new stuff with some regularity, be it educational anime, virtually unknown OVAs, weird local stuff, whatever. Oh, and the anime that's just lost. Most pre-1945 anime is lost forever, so those early cel works (a lot of the very early films are from before cels became standard) are forever obscured.

So yeah, most of cel anime is obscure. And even if you're in the know, there's still more obscure titles to dig into.

 No.3421

>>3420
If they haven't bothered with a modern DVD/BD release, it's probably obscure. Though there's a slow steady trickle of new BD releases of old series.

Did anyone give a shit about Kentauros no Densetsu? It's not offensive, but it's not very good either and the art and animation are ho-hum. This is very typical of these obscure OVA/Film from this era. One thing I do appreciate though, is that the subject matter seems way more varied. Oh yeah, manga about bikers and turn that into an animated film about bikers. Would anything like this get made at all? I strongly get the vibe that this was meant to be a live action film from the way the script is written and how it's directed. Probably couldn't secure funding, so a cheap animated film was made.

What the fuck are you talking about? Shows dealing with cyberpunk aesthetics and postmodernist malaise are by necessity going to be in conversation with Western ways of doing things. Their source material is overwhelmingly Western.

I strongly doubt it. Especially since there was a lot of dark stuff in the 80s with hyper violent OVAs that was reviled by a lot of westerners, especially internet critics of the 2000s. Hell look at Genocyber which was peak nihilism and postmodern critique. The same guy that did Genocyber went on to do the plot of FMA 2003 which was more nihilistic than the source material.
I think it's less to do with western influence and more a sub-sect of that Japanese generation at the time that grew disillusioned, I am not that good at Japanese Cold War history, but part of me thinks it has to do with all the wacky shit that was going on in the 60s-70s with those extreme leftist groups that were taking over schools and causing literal sieges (I think there was even one that was a literal self-hating anti-Japanese group?).
Also post-modern critique in Japan is nothing really new. So I don't really believe that either. It just so happens it more easily appeals to western tastes because westerners are a lot more cynical.

I wouldn't be so harsh, he heard it from another anon so I strongly doubt it's his own beliefs. But I can see why it would be easy to jump to that conclusion if you only looked at it superficially. If you look deeper it doesn't really add up that much honestly.

>It's as if Gonzo wanted to atone for how much they butchered Hellsing by taking a similar IP
Nah take that back. Hellsing 2001 was great.
I get it wasn't faithful, but I just found out more interesting than Hirano's original version (I like the tone, characters, writing, style and music more). Hirano's original manga felt too rushed since Hirano was just too lazy to actually write the damn story, which is part of the reason why the anime was mostly original instead of faithful.
I wish Hirano had more of an attitude like Arakawa when it came to unfaithful adaptations, I would've liked Hellsing 2001 to run for a bit longer before then having Ultimate come out much later so Hirano could've taken more time to actually finish the manga instead of rushing it in such a weird way. But nah, Hirano threw a hissy fit about 2001 and probably got any continuation shit-canned.

Or, since Hidamari is the most popular by far, let's give some love to the other two. Sketchbook's adaptation is the most relaxing of the bunch IMO, especially this time of year.

I can understand finding the Sketchbook manga insufferable. It's largely anti-humor, but I like it because of that. The Hidarmari Sketch manga should be ending soon in terms of chapter count but it's been 9 months since the last chapter so that slows things down a lot.

It's nice to have a situation where the most popular one is the best as well.
For Sketchbook I recall it being decent but all the cat parts being shit. For GA for reasons I can't recall it's one of my least favourite Kirara anime. I really don't know what it did wrong to make me consider it Aldnoah tier but aside from remembering a surrealist episode being decent I don't remember anything else so have to defer to a list I made 6 years ago.

For extra art girl anime if I count New Game and Stella no Mahou they'd only be behind Hidamari. If I include mangaka and potters a few extra series would join them.

Alright, it is Wednesday and I am gonna post the first volume of Rin-ne. Feel free to react or comment on any panel, though I appreciate if image replies are not used during the dump. Feel free to discuss anything related to Rin-ne after the dump.

Rin-ne is Rumiko Takahashi's return to comedy after Inuyasha. Rin-ne is VIZ's localized title, presumably chosen to assist in pronunciation. The original title is 境界のRINNE (Kyokai/Kyoukai no Rinne) which means Rinne of the Boundary. While it is not a megahit like some of her other huge series, I highly recommend it to fans of Ranma 1/2 and Urusei Yatsura though it is obviously different.

I will be using scans of the official VIZ localization. Be aware that some of the larger images may have been edited to be lower quality due to image size limits.

In addition, I will be dumping the one short story by Rumiko Takahashi and Mitsuru Ikegami that came out around this time called "My Sweet Sunday". Today, the scans I have of the one shot are the official VIZ ones.

End! All's well that ends well. I like this story, though I feel there could've been a bit more to it. It does touch upon how difficult it is to give advice and help people but it also shows that it is easy to misunderstand other people's situations. As such, I can't help but want a bit more from it. But life doesn't have an easy moral, I guess. Let me know what you thought of this one.

Kanashimi No Belladonna (1973) is a masterpiece of tragic/erotic/psychedelic animation directed by Eiichi Yamamoto. Jeanne is a peasant who gets raped by a noble and becomes a witch; based on/inspired by La Sorcière by Jules Michelet, a treatise in the history of witchcraft. Noted for its experimental artstyle, bizarre visuals and its connection to Western classical art works like Klimt and the cubist movement, it's a unique piece of art with a moving narrative and breathtaking moments on screen.
