I mean in what way? The answer is no, but they could improve on things like the space battles being more exciting and the religious cult aspect being less sensationalist

Not in this way.
However if it will get people to pick up the novels or the older series that's already a win. At least it doesn't look atrocious like Berserk, so this will still be somewhat enjoyable.
I hope they keep the alcohol is my friend line tho.

The original OVA series is kind of bland from a production standpoint, but this new anime is looking kind of bland as well, just a shinier kind of bland.
What I'm most curious about at this point is what exactly the new anime intends to cover given its release format: a 12 episode TV series in spring 2018 and then 3 movies (each a compliation of 4 episodes) in 2019. Considering the grand scope of the original, they're going to have to restrict the story's focus to accomplish much of anything.

No, but that's mostly down to it being unlikely to match the 100+ episode count.
Can't say I'm terribly fond off the new character designs (Kircheis in particular looks way too off), but the overall presentation looks alright. As long as I get my semicircles, I'll probably enjoy this.

No one invited me.
Check your PMs.
I mean...LOGH is straight up my favorite anime. The entire runtime of the older show is around 50-60 hours or so, and the total runtime of Production IG's announced series plus films will be around 12. I don't see how it could measure up.

Have to finally check the staff for the show as it's genuinely great week after week and I've no clue to who to credit for that.

Glass is more than half full!
Uukhhhhh. That VA triggered me.T_T Also Kircheis hair is not even wavy like ocean of flame. What the hell???
I am sooo going to keep getting triggered while watching the show here.T_T
Also, those CG ships is lame. The Brunhilde don't need that huge thrusters. It is famous for its slick but highly modern design mgrgrgrgrgrrg.
Edit: Also, where the hell is wonderful Dvorak music??? That is supposed to be the best symphony in the show.

Anime in a nutshell, tbh.
I'm into the new LotGH look. Also, here's the PV with English subtitles:

Seriously, the show was pretty damn good until that total BS love triangle/harem BS ending.... Like WTF was that?
The real reason why these threads are so slow now, lol.

Hollywood is trying to do a Maschinen Krieger/SF3d adaptation? It's a model kit series so I suppose they could just tell whatever story they want. The backstory is basically this:

Ma. K is probably one of the main visual design inspirations for Hawken with it's particular brand of gritty mecha

I got that soundtrack on my PC. Found a few favorites on it.
That's why I'm kinda eh on it. They don't make anime that way anymore.

They never did. LOGH is a crazy thing that took almost a decade to complete. 110 episodes distributed as an OVA. I don't know of anything else comparable.

Nah it's just all the interesting posters have buggered off either banned or tired of this place.
Angry Grimace
Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Oh god, they had the Lilina hotel scene? That's really recent in the manga (e.g. there's maybe the content of one episode of anime material in between that and current). I'm surprised they got that far (although Koi to Uso chapters are like 5 pages about half the time).
I haven't seen anything like that as well. The novels are ten volumes long, but the OVA's is a bit broader.
It can easily discuss the politics while nothing of note happens during the episode. That would have been a few pages in the novel.

can i get a invite to the discord?
So, I'm looking for recommandations. I've been following Made in Abyss, Gamers!, New Game!!, Ballroom e Yokoso, Shingeki no Bahamut: Virgin Soul, Re:Creators, Kakegurui, Kubikiri and Boku No Hero Academia.
Tried Knight's and Magic, but this anime failed to keep me interested (stopped at episode 7).
I was wondering if, maybe, there was an interesting anime which failed to catch my attention, and if so I would be thankful if you could advise me something new to watch.
Also interested by a Discord invite, if you would welcome me.

From this season, or in general?

From this season ideally, although if you have good shows to recommend that I may have missed, I'm interested to hear about them. I already watched Yuri on Ice, Re:Zero, Demi-chan wa Kataritai, and quite a few more (although the ones I just mentioned left a very good and lasting impression), but listing them all would take a while (and I honestly don't remember all of those that I watched).

Speaking of:
Revolutionary Girl Utena - Ep. 10
Best Girl episode:
If it wasn't clear enough, Nanami is really screwed up.
This episode really shows how twisted she truely is and how far she would go.
Of course, she doesn't stand much of chance in a fair fight, but then again she doesn't have to play fair, does she?

Might as well throw me an invite if you'd have me. Not like I'm not on the Destiny clan board 24/7 these days. I haven't been keeping up with the anime lately, lol.
Someone else watches Kubikiri ? Masaka !
Mahoujin Guru Guru is the one I can heartily recommend. Also Tsurezure Children & Aho Girl (warning for pretty deranged kind of humour)
Youkoso 11
It's only now that I realise that they're putting out two not one philosophical quotes in each ep. Need to rewatch.
Things at least started happening in the second half though mostly in a way that was to be expected.

Did you watch Konosuba over the winter? If not, hit that one up first.
For the rest, well, here's what I sent to Narag last week:
Winter Season:
- Scum's Wish
- Tales of Zestiria (fantasy + awesome!)
- Interviews with Monster Girls
Spring Season:
- Eromanga Sensei (just so you can have that * trash stamp that we all got from the experience)
- Grimoire of Zero
- Sukasuka
- Tsuki ga Kirei (this is really good, but it is a slow drama/romance show, so...)
- Saekano S2
- Clockwork Planet (the show is not very good, but it is pretty damned fun and entertaining)
Summer Season:
- Made in Abyss
- Tsurezure Children
- Gamers!
- Aho Girl
- Love and Lies (probably just my own tastes here, since I think I'm the only one left watching it, but it is pretty good stuff)
- New Game S2
- Isekai Smartphone Jesus (just for the spectacle of it all..)
- Kakegurui
We still got Cornbread and DTL for that.
Excuse me... That deserves a tumblr gif!
From this season there's Princess Principal, a steamspunk spy action slice-of-life whatever.
And the 4th Symphogear season.
Some other recent stuff would be:
ID-0
Blame! Movie
Quanzhi Gaoshou (The King's Avatar), which is a chinese e-sports MMO anime (mouse and kayboard style, not that fancy VR stuff), which was great fun.

Now why would you make these huge ass targets like that with big cross sections that are easier to hit instead of making it very narrow and long with a couple metric shit tons of armor right at the front
