With Jason seemingly dead to the world I suppose its up to ghostlightning to blaze the trail in blogging about Nisemonogatari - When Inauthenticity is Fanservice, It’s a NICE MONOGATARI BRO (Nisemonogatari 06)

Choice extracts:

Here’s the manipulation: There are two value propositions in Nisemonogatari that on the surface at least, work at cross-purposes with each other: Smut, vs. the core story about bakemono and love, etc. The kimoi love the former, and the elitists love the latter. While there are those who genuinely love both without privilege or distinction, let’s leave those weirdos out of this.

If there’s anything that really intrigues me is this

Spoiler

Hanekawa bullying Senjougahara angle. I don’t even

… but oh my goodness this is delicious. Anyway, best episode yet. To love this and to deny all the spectacular smut I’d rather not have seen would be inauthentic. But to say that I’d rather have more pedophiliac smut in my Nisemonogatari would by lying and stupid. I hate this show. Tsundere service.Well, at least he's honest.

One of the untitled old analog-digital mixes by JNT (JNTHED). Sorry, think I can't post his blogs directly because it has, along that base image, some pretty questionable content I suppose I'm not allowed to link to in here, but with the information you have now it will be pretty easy to find them.

I commenced this as a way of showing TEAM FULLMECHA's works because of this post (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=34979460&postcount=105), which reminds me I should be cycling through the avatars I made, and change to another one... right... NOW.

It looks pretty awesome

Yeah, his pixiv as well! He is even one of the resident gallery artists from pixiv's collaborator Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd. (http://en.gallery-kaikaikiki.com/category/artists/jnthed/). His account also includes pretty useful technique guides in the vein of his JNTV's channel videos, although it has mostly submissions from his GADGADGET digital era and lacks some of the previous ones from RAKGADGET; very early drawings, 'comic-strip' doodles and some more like the base image of the avatar I've posted, for example.

Well, at least he's honest.

ghostlightning seems to be focusing on the linguistic smut rather than the visual smut. But then the dialogue has always been a strength of the Monogatari series, hasn't it? I don't care for the show (I actually loathe the dialogue - I can't stand the way Nisioisin writes) but that's what the "non-kimoi" people watch it for.

If you took out the visual smut - the Shinobu bath scenes or whatever, I dunno, I don't watch it - but left in the insinuations via the dialogue, wouldn't that make it a better show, by ghostlightning's assessment?

Also to class a viewer's relationship with a frustrating show as "tsundere" is an excessive reduction IMO. It seems to me that a tsundere is mean to hide their affection for their loved one as they are. Is criticising a show that you want to be better the same thing?

Personally, I don't think they even know what they're focusing on:

But going back to the GOLD in this episode, her statements about she wouldn’t be showing up if she really didn’t intend to help Koyomi and how she needed to be ordered as if she didn’t want to do anything for him naturally is there for her to save face is both touching and brilliant. It’s the show deconstructing the inauthenticity as it is delivered as tsundere service is one of the best things about this anime franchise. This is a crowning example.

Linguistic, visual, they do no separation of the sort. It's stated as nondescript (narrative?) vs nondescript(smut/narrative?), which is silly because to remove the smut from but one small part of the picture is basically them saying, "I love Senjo, her parts in particular are 'love,' therefore 'deep;' The rest is for creeps;" It's a false-dichtomy, (and also makes the quote on the 'kimoi' rationalizing their interests kind of ironic as that what the whole thing was written to do), as Senjougahara herself is, at the roots, but a trope devised to capitalize on the self-loathing of a viewer. It can't really be separated in the sense that they do. (And in the case of Bakemono, I can't think of a way to really separate it at all)

This trope abuse, with the sheer amount of it pervading anime, and particularly Nise, is neither 'touching' nor 'brilliant', and hardly does anything that deserves the phrasing 'deconstructing the authenticity.' Unless they literally mean it in the sense that it's 'obliterating the legitimacy,' which then I could agree with. The whole thing reads like the obfuscation of shallow idea, imo.

As for the tsundere bit they break it down here,

It’s inauthentic to keep hating on a show one truly cares for.

It’s also very authentic to keep criticizing a show because one truly cares for it.

Which doesn't actually reduce the viewer in the end, and reads fine, but I hardly see the need to further define the simple 'tsundere,' which itself is a reductionist term, true, but is apt enough as anime characters rarely ever move outside of its long defined one-note, imo.

Huh, now I understand why folk are upset with the tv series. We go from a touching tale of friendship and what it means to maintain it to batshit characters and various flavors of weapons-grade macaroons.

Well, it would certainly be less awkward.

Not really, no. I can see why it's tempting to say that though, because it would 'fit' nicely. The temptation to make things 'fit' nicely is always a dangerous one because you draw conclusions out of thin air like that.

Right, this isn't an uncommon trait in anime blogging. You see a wide variety of writers over-analyze and dissect their source material 'finding' meaning that isn't there (*cough* Evangelion *cough*). I'm not sure if this is an attempt to legitimise the show they're watching or their position as anime 'critics'.

That's probably why I enjoy Jason's blog so much, since he's less on the analytical side and more on the "Possibly insane. Also possibly not human, can't tell" side.

Speaking of anime blogging, I find this post on Madoka to be interesting (SPOILERS for Madoka and Steins;Gate) - http://animeotaku.animeblogger.net/2012/02/madoka-of-temporal-recursions-and-noble-hearts/

I don't think this is a particularly great post or anything, I just find the way he approaches writing about the text interesting. This is because he starts his analysis like this -

I have been almost three years removed from any meaningful study of philosophy or literature that I cannot write intelligently about literary theories any longer. I have also never properly tackled the concept of deconstruction so I cannot give any rational comment on Derrida and Foucault. As much as I would like to analyze the series in those lenses, I have been inundated with only medicine these past few years.

He draws attention to his own ignorance on these subjects, which he then uses an excuse (rightly or wrongly) not to get involved with that part of the discussion. However, he then immediately goes on to say-

Despite being contrary to the series that I usually watch, Madoka wasn’t the first ‘magical girl’ series I have seen. Although I cannot speak of deconstruction intelligently, I think I’m versed enough to be able to speak of the series as a sort of subversion to what is commonly seen in such series. Little is common with Madoka and a series like Akazukin Chacha; even the hue of Pretear was incomparably lighter than Madoka’s. As far as the samples of ‘magical girl’ series go, Madoka is by far the darkest I have seen, in that it doesn’t really designate good from evil.

Okay, so once again he's drawing attention to his ignorance, but this time rather than shying away from a discussion he engages with it anyway. I have no idea how well versed he is in the magical girl genre, but even though he doesn't cite many example he still feels that he can draw a comparison between Madoka and the genre as a whole. This seems like a dangerous move from someone without a grounding in the magical girl genre. I mean, genre theory isn't quite that simple.

Why doesn't he treat discussions about 'Madoka vs The Magical Girl Genre' along the same lines as 'Madoka as a Deconstruction' - admit that he's ignorant about both fields. Then again, he's hardly alone in talking at length about Madoka vs The Magical Girl Genre without any real experience.

That's certainly the most impressive thing about Dirty Pair - the main characters aren't ciphers, and I actually want to see more of the show just to watch their interactions and banter. I suppose that chemistry is essential for an episodic show after all, why else would you come back if you didn't like seeing the characters do what they do best? I suppose The Dirty Pairis more memorable because many other shows of that type completely fail to deliver in that regard.

*post compares The King's Speech and Inception in terms of "non-linear storytelling"*
*head asplodes*

(is Inception really non-linear? I only saw it the one time but certainly didn't think so.)

I don't think Madoka is any more insightful into what "love" means than any number of magical girl anime. To use the Pretear example that Michael uses in that post, Takako's story arc isn't that different from Sayaka's - it's just a bit less melodramatic. And Madoka's sacrifice isn't really that different from, say, SPOILERS FOR A MAGICAL GIRL ANIME WITH A SIMILAR SACRIFICE AT THE END SO THIS WILL SPOIL THE ENDING IF YOU HIGHLIGHT IT

Spoiler

Nurse Angel Ririka SOS, where Ririka sacrifices herself at the end to heal the Earth from the Dark Vaccine

.

Not to take anything away from Madoka's achievements in being compelling entertainment with an entertaining aesthetic, but as I've probably said before although it's a grimdark take on magical girl themes the genre has never been afraid to go to dark places.

Best non-G Gundam

I think it's the best non-&#8704; Gundam Gudam. Oh wait, no, there's still War in the Pocket. Hmm. I guess it's third place then, but that still puts it ahead of about 20 other shows, OVA's and movies.

It still offers the best (and I suppose one of the only) grunt-level perspectives of any Gundam show, which I really appreciate. Far too many shows end up focusing on nothing but Aces on Side A vs Aces on Side B which tends to get boring after a while both in terms of the story and the combat. The best parts of Gundam Unicorn involve grunts battling grunts. Of course, O8th MS Team eventually becomes

The extent of most people's knowledge of mahou shoujo is a couple of episodes of Sailor Moon or a parody transformation sequence/anime-within-an-anime on television in any number of non-mahou shoujo anime. The general assumption seems to be that the genre = ridiculous transformations, little girls, frilly clothing, bright colors, general sugarcoating. I've only seen some Sailor Moon and Precure, but I know that the history of mahou shoujo extends back decades and has undergone several evolutions, so I don't know if the current hallmarks of the genre are actually integral to the definition of the genre or if they're merely byproducts of the fact that popular mahou shoujo series are heavily marketed toward young girls. I know that I can't make that call having only seen a few popular and relatively modern examples of the genre.

I think that Madoka is a valid deconstruction of the mahou shoujo genre from my limited experience, but not merely because it's dark as some seem to think.

Hello, AnimeGaf.

So, I'm not a huge anime fan, my interest basically lived and died with Toonami/Adult Swim.

For some reason, I decided to use the new Xbox 360 Youtube App, and decided to search Case Closed, one of my favorite memories from the CN days. I watched the first CC movie, and thought it was pretty awesome. Lot of great things I remembered from the show were in there.

So, I've come to learn that somehow the show is still going on today, but I was more curious to know what Gaf's take on the show is, and how did you all feel about the first movie?
