Bro, lodoss is the dumbest normalfag shit you could ever watch. Even tomino and Anno made fun of how it was absolute slop for retards. I'm tired of these retarded ass twitter normalgroid threads. This whole damn board sucks ass now. There is not a single good thread in the catalog.

Lmao, post 2010 anime watchers are worse than subhumans at this point, by the way Frieren is great.

I don't think Anno is in a position to say anything about any anime at all, even if he's right in this case, Lodoss is only great for the art and aesthetics.

No the fuck it isn't. Look at this shit man. Look at how shallow and sloppily choreographed Lodoss is.

Frieren:

Anime is great now, this is the problem with retro larpers, they fool themselves into thinking absolute garbage is good, they don't know anything about art and aesthetics, and they try to drag everyone else down into their misery. Its no wonder this place is so boring. I already discussed this all 20 years ago. Move on or go talk about it on reddit. Being a newfag is in vogue there so you'll get a lot of updoots if you say you found a copy of Lodoss in your grandma's attic and are watching it for the first time.

So, just to be clear, you don't have any idea of what aesthetics are and the OP doesn't know what pseudo means, ok, you might as well say that you are the op having an schizo episode. By the way the example you used for Frieren is terrible, the Lodoss video looks like 100 times better.

>>279830308
You aren't even replying to the same person. That's how stupid you are.

>>279830308

faggots cannot tolerate this because camera angle did not change 80 times within 3 seconds and there were not enough flashy lights and pointless movements

>>279830344
Thank god they zoomed in on that guys face when he swung his axe so I know that it is supposed to be dramatic.

>>279830344
>>279830374
Objectively, Lodoss looks way better here.

>>279830374
Why aren't the zooming in on Stark's face here? They're showing how he moves around and it's making me confused.

>>279830396

It looks like a saturday morning cartoon lol

>>279830457
But Frieren does zoom in on the character's faces during moments of spectacle, not gratuitously every single swing to cut down on animation budget. I mean holy shit bro, look at 50-53, oh my god, this is animation porn.

>>279830461
Who Stark rotoscoped running on a 3d blurred background with rock cubes everywhere? Yes it does to be honest.

>>279830516

>>279830589
AHAHAHHA WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT

>>279830344
This webm is a perfect example of how cheap and bad old animation was. Everything is hilariously split up and heavily sequenced. It takes 3 seperate shots just throw a dagger.

>>279829042 (OP)

Frieren is in no way a copy of Lodoss though. Lodoss has a classic narrative structure with a hero and good versus evil plot and all that. Even stuff like Ruin Explorers or Slayers have that and have more of an adventure focus.

Frieren is slice of life. Sure there are big moments and all that but Fireren is also about the little unremarkable moments of the journey like meeting NPC n22 and helping them plow the fields or search for a cat. Closest thing to it would be Fumetsu no anata e, and even then Fumetsu is way too intense to draw a fair comparison. The focus is fundamentally different.

You also need to consider the context of production. Frieren being true high fantasy is a blessing from the lord in the current context. Luckily actual fantasy is starting to make a come back in force, which is in no way a bad thing at the moment.

>>279830647
>Frieren is slice of life
Well, it was slice of life

>>279830613
yeah id rather have him throw dagger and than 295839583 particles explode than purple white yellow screen than loud BANNGJZJNG than another big flash than he just stands there with smug smirk on his face so POWERFUL

>>279830647
literally copy pasted design, made her midget and face round
it is worse in every single aspect
and of course, yeah it is not a total copy because as every other popular anime it copies shit for multiple anime sources

>>279830613

>than 295839583 particles explode than purple white yellow screen than loud BANNGJZJNG than another big flash than he just stands there with smug smirk on his face so POWERFUL
But that's literally what Lodoss does every single fight. A dagger throw is
>zoom in on guys face
>zoom in on dagger
>zoom in on dragon
And everything in between is just sparks and impact frames. Theres like 2 seconds of actual sakuga for every 30 seconds of animation. Why does Frieren, a seasonal anime, look so much better than this high budget OVA?

>>279830739
cannot you see how her plain expression in contrast to her cute comical height is making it deep? did you know she keeps that straight face for the most of anime run? crazy huh so deep

>>279830739
So, aren't the Lodoss aesthetics great like I said? Still that doesn't make Frieren a bad anime.

>>279830776

>>279830739
So you think overly saturated thick lined still frames are aesthetic, got it. What an incredibly stupid and subjective thing to poop your pants over.

>>279830815
You don't have an argument. You already lost.

>>279830840
They did the moment they picked fucking Lodoss which had well-known production troubles, like what the fuck?

>>279830818
Good: Pacing, character progression, world building
Original: Can't really say anything because there's little to 0 originality in anime the best I can say is that it's an after story instead of the typical yuusha defeats the Maou story, and don't you dare you say that Lodoss is original.

reddit no frieren sisters sound mad)))

in terms of choreography both are almost equal, as in I don't think they are good
but frieren's wordswordswords are pretty annoying, plus the fucking expressions, it's like she's bored and excited at the same time but she's clearly saying she's lamenting her bad luck
And no, it's not a character trait of her, everybody is like that in frieren

Dude, did you watch the webm, they zoomed into Sterk, AND Frieren who wasn't even there!

>>279831141
Yeah your perception about the characters is your headcanon because the characters personalities and evolution through the series is well stablished, so the characters being shallow is a literal headcanon, do you understand that zoomer?

>>279830819
No, clearly aesthetics is lack of shading, lighting, and defined facial features

>>279831190
AHHAHAHAHAH WHAT A FUCKING RETARD
so wait
your opinion that is not shallow is not a headcannon despite what you just said?
your iq must be like 70 wtf is this shit

>>279831237

Because you touch yourself at night.

>>279831798
Don't be so sure, onimai was the top ranking anime on every single japanese aggregator during its respective season and a huge portion of the animation talent in japan worked on it. Tomino is also fascinated with gender and crossdressing for, uh, reasons.

>>279829418
That's bullshit. Nobody in Japan cares about the Lodoss anime, it's all about the novels.

Damn. He was referring to Onimai for sure when he said that.

>>279831773
Tomino was referring to the popularity of anime, not the quality, and warned that it can soon change. He also recently stated that China is overtaking Japan in animation so best not to take everything he says seriously. He's an old man saying things.

>>279835933
>watch 3-gatsu no lion after
I watched it as it was airing and its been a favorite ever since and recently caught up with the manga. Maybe I'll watch frieren then

>>279835954
never said it does not look as a nice animation, it just makes no sense, weight behind it, like any other modern anime it is just flashing scene after scene that often are not even adding anything
in earlier days people took way more time to think through each frame, today, it is way easier to create them
hence why comes waves of shit
nobody is saying it is not smooth, but it is in fact shit in comparison to something that actually looks good and is eye appealing to humans outside of tiktok children

>>279835767

Mismanaged production after S1.
Funny enough the Animation Producer that made OPM S1 (Yuichiro Fukushi) is the same guy making Frieren. He's doing S2 of Frieren again so expect it will be on the same level as the first, especially since Saito is directing again

>why did standards drop so badly with this new generation of human morons?
Anime went from being a niche in western populations to mainstream. Money grubbers saw the appeal it had, started investing money en masse into it. Similar to the death of any hobby or fandom. It's not that standards have dropped, it's just that if you've only ever had McDonald's, grew up on McDonald's advertising, played in the McDonald's play-place as a kid and had your sexual awakening with Ronald McDonald himself, you aren't going to be aware how much better a homemade burger is when made by a talented person. Even if I gave you one it wouldn't conform to your preconceptions of what a burger is and you wouldn't get the stimulation of nostalgia and all the other reinforced feedback you've had over a lifetime of eating McDonald's. It's not that younger people have no standards, they've just never been exposed to quality and wouldn't know it if it came across their path because they've been targeted by greedy corporations looking to make a lifelong consumer, rather than enjoying anime for the animation and story.

>>279829042 (OP)
One thing I hate is the humor. Most of the relationships in this show are a fucking gag instead of being something interesting. Hey look, Fern is mad at Stark again, hey look, funny lesbians.

>>279829042 (OP)
Redditors are overthinkers. They love to overinterpret everything. And works like Frieren and Chainsaw Man are perfect for this. In the former, they can pretend to have deep philosophical discussions about the ephemerality of time (even though the anime clearly deals with the subject in platitudes at best), and in the latter, they can pretend to have deep political discussions about abuse and capitalism (even though Fujimoto is clearly just a misery porn wanker).

MHA S2 made it a universal hit.

>>279840810

Realistically, Frieren might end up that kind of level of hit. I actually think it's not far off solidifying that. Apparently Frieren had peak shonenshit tier levels of engagement when S1 was airing.

Frieren won't ever be SnK big, but it doesn't need to be

the best thing is you can do this with literally any show as present it as some kind of elaborate shit

>>279839670
Yeah, it feels like somebody is fresh into manga business and wants to have their own but don't have any particularly interesting ideas so huge part of it is an assemblage of what you typically see in average manga.

I think they are both great examples of visual storytelling from different time periods. You cannot really use your argument for the webm though because it cuts out the flashback to Frieren talking with Eisen.

How fortunate that Frieren has both excellent art and animation, whereas Lodoss has neither.

no, retard, you're a contrarian because you see something popular and, instead of just saying "not for me" you insist it must be bad and exaggerate everything in it you don't like, assuming you even watched it in the first place. case in point, despite Record of Lodoss War and Frieren being entirely different thematically and narratively, you insist one is a copy of the other simply because fantasy setting with elf. you are retarded. posting on /a/ does not make you smart. constantly shitting on shows you may or may not like doesn't mean you have good taste.

HOLY SOVL

>>279844970
maybe if you stopped shilling your shitty show 247 i would not have a need to shit on it in return, and yes, it is bad, i did not even watch it because it is a fucking garbage, kill yourself Jamal

The 2010s had SnK, Kimetsu no Yaiba, Kimi no Na wa, and JoJo, and they're all bigger than Frieren. But you might be right about this decade. The only other things that come close are JJK and Spy x Family.

>>279844509
I find it funny how you do nothing but repeat that either Lodoss is shit or Frieren is better without saying why. It's like you have nothing to defend your point, but you still force yourself to reply because of some autistic fight you're carrying on in your mind.

No seriously, how did he back his argument? Because he hasn't said anything meaningful in this entire thread.

nothing happens in lodoss though. deedlit is cute and of course it looks wonderful but watching it is actually a bore

>>279845758
>No seriously, how did he back his argument?
His arguments are directly backed by evidence and he articulated why they were relevant as well as countered their criticisms. Animation is a style. Obviously, there is a stark difference between SHAFT and kyoani even though they are both equally good at animation, and they leverage their strengths accordingly. There is no perfect animation. If a sword swing lacks impact, that's a style, a really bad one actually. Frieren is not a good manga. The anime took a slightly above average manga and elevated it to an extreme height, whereas lodoss looks like... this. >>279845216 There's very specific reasons for its color composition, character design, soundtrack, storyboarding, etc, that Lodoss simply can't touch and stomping your feet and saying no isn't going to change that.

>>279845939
is your favorite style called sloppa?

>>279845939
>His arguments are directly backed by evidence and he articulated why they were relevant as well as countered their criticisms
When? You're still not being specific. Really, his big mistake was taking the bait on the dragon fight comparison. I'm not going to pretend that there aren't things Frieren does better than Lodoss but that was not an argument he should've taken. It left him grasping for straws and nitpicking and unable to defend when it was turned onto him so he ran away from that fight. He also tried arguing about the character design and "aesthetics" and was totally lost there.

>>279846121
Nice argument.

>>279846137
>Really, his big mistake was taking the bait on the dragon fight comparison.
He's correct there. That webm is even taken directly from sakugabooru, and if you look there you'll even find people commenting the specific cut he pointed out is absolutely insane. You can't just say dumb things like this and assume people will agree with your entirely subjective viewpoints when you don't understand how aesthetic and animation works at all. It just makes you look like a dumb animal.

>>279846175
you are basically arguing your viewpoint is right because people gave you upvotes on it, made same comments? sorry bro frieren looks like zoomzoom shit keep coping

What the fuck does Frieren have to do with Deedlit you fucking bait-chugging spergs? There is absolutely nothing in Frieren that is comparable to Lodoss War except it's fantasy and there's an elf chick in it. The mood and everything is completely different, Frieren is a completely different character.

>>279846252
>sorry bro frieren looks like zoomzoom shit keep coping
Another nice argument.

if frieren looks like zoomzoom shit old anime looks like septic tank slurry lol

>>279829042 (OP)
thats really cool but unlike Lodoss, Frieren actually has good animation
both dont really have any story, but Frieren at least presents itself better
Lodoss is just a mess without any structure

yes i watched only the OVAs
yes it was dogshit
literally just an anime of some faggots DnD session

>>279846137
Oh my fucking god dude, Yutaka Nakamura did the dragon scene in Frieren. Do you even know what you're saying?

You just don't understand, Lodoss is amazing. It's too subtle and nuanced for your ADD addled brains to comprehend.

sorry bro i am the op and i did not scream about one scene i just pointed out the fact that there is nothing original about frieren no reddit, it is pseudo intellectual shit and animation is sloppa for tiktok generation

Zoomers don't actually care about animation, they just think anything with bright flashy colors is good. Me? I prefer for the action to not actually be shown on screen. I want it presented in a visual metaphor of saturated red lights.

>>279846494

they just throw tantrum and shit at you and spam it down your throat till you leave

>>279829089
>it's way too basic and generic.
The story was based on a D&D campaign, what were you expecting? But yeah, the story gets boring around the same time the animation progressively gets worse. The fight between the dragons near the end (pic related) is literally just two static images roaring at each other. People on Twitter who watched the same nitpicked clips sure LOVE the OVAs though.

>>279847059
The other dragon. The whole (long-ass) scene is more of a staring contest than a fight.

>>279847059
>>279847128

>>279835509
Every single character in Frieren has this exact same deadpan look, it creates such a dull atmosphere.

The word your looking for is subdued, which is normal and intentional, and more importantly fits the tone of the story imo

Per volume? I doubt it, Frieren manga is about as popular as stuff like Boku no hero now

>9.5 rating on Douban
This is insanely high for a non-Chinese show.
How did they manage to make something so universally beloved ?

>>279844858
I enjoyed Lodoss but there's definitely better fantasy anime from the era. It meanders and never quite reaches a real climax, like many D&D campaigns are wont to do.

>>279829952
Which Gundam series is about winning war with the power of music, again? Oh yeah. Fucking none of them.

>>279848664

Not really. There are plenty of anime with the same rating or higher. The Chinese love anime.

>>279830719
>copy pasted design

So you immediately contradict your own argument. Is this the first time you've ever seen an elf before, anon?

>>279848780
>Not really
What, 9.5 on Douban is really fucking high, I think only their obsession over sports anime like Slam Dunk and Haikyuu have (slightly) higher ratings. Not even some Chinese classics are rated that high.

>elven ear pierced your body and currently in your liver
What do?

>>279849008
Even excluding sports anime, there are still plenty rated higher than 9.5 like Gintama, Doraemon, JoJo, Cowboy Bebop, Natsume Yuujinchou, Mushishi, Ghost in the Shell and even more rated at 9.5

I like it because it's the one thing I've always wanted: a tale about the hero party members after their journey is over.
Most stories like that were depressing and messed up. Frieren is the first hopeful story I've read despite the fact that the hero has already died and she has lost all chance.

The biggest turn-off for me about Frieren is the complete lack of facial expressions. The protagonist being like this makes sense but 99% of the cast rarely shows any emotion.
>It's...It's realistic.
Real people don't act like robots.

Also, the character design is pretty bland.

>>279868419
That's why Aura is so popular. She displayed more emotions and facial expressions in her one scene than other characters did in the entire show.

>>279868524
>That's why Aura is so popular
lol no it isn't, it's because she got memed on for being a comically arrogant idiot.
She just became a vehicle for dozens of bullying memes

>>279868524
Pretty much this

>>279868747
If Aura was deadpan and emotionless all the way through like everybody else, Frieren bullying and humiliating her wouldn't be so memorable and memed.

>>279868419
>Lack of facial expressions
She's literally smiling in the pic you posted

>>279829042 (OP)

What's up with retro larpers doubling down on the absolute dumbest opinions? How hard is it to watch a new anime? What compels someone to behave like this? You haven't been constipated with thoughts on Lodoss for the last 30 years, you just watched this garbage and now you're looking to bait it against the only new anime you watched, Frieren, because you're a dumb newfag. Give me a break lol. Compare Frieren to an actual *good* anime, now that would really be something.

Frieren is the Dragon Ball Z of this generation, deal with it

I don’t like this modern trend of spastic camera movement, ugly rotoscoping/3d environments and cubes. It looks so dizzying and cheap. Another thing Frieren lacks is the human expression, see how all the characters in the Lodoss webm showing fear determination shock like they’re real humans. Meanwhile Frieren characters always have those dead eyes or some generic shounen ‘EYAAAA’ face like in that dragon webm or when Ubel makes her cliche psycho face.

It’s ironic that a series supposed to be an emotional journey fails to capture or even convey real emotion. At least Lodoss knew what it was, a generic televised DnD campaign. Frieren is supposed to be better yet fails to do the basics of storytelling

I like how they clearly had limited resources but made do without it ending in a disgrace. It doesn't always end well in such circumstances today and didn't back then either.

I still like it more than the 165fps GOTTA GO FAST Stark running with gratuitously rotating camera because that's cheap in 3DCG and it makes people not notice the awfully featureless ground graphics.
The flat ground you would get in such 3D animations in cel era too, so that is not something that deserves ridicule.
The supersmooth 3dCG running is funny looking tho.

Seriously Frieren has nice animation don't post Stark/dragon it's lulzy.

>>279873603

Now I checked some clips on youtube and you are right, that's the "troglodyte era" digital animation.
the pic in >>279863262 fooled me

The original poster >>279829752 I reacted to is clearly hand-drawn art though. That style captured in it usually doesn't translate to digital animation. Sure, exceptions like this where it is somewhat visible exist, but generally the new tools brought new style features with them.

I was talking about the artstyle. I like how it looks.

>>279874064
then whats with the cube?

>>279875624
You specifically said animation. Same character designer that worked on Lodoss did Escaflowne by the way, except this time he wasn't hindered by a shitty director and a blasé DnD clone, so he was allowed to really shine here. Here we can see an actual swordfight that puts the dogshit in Lodoss to shame. Not that Escaflowne is without flaw of course, it has many of the typical issues found in old anime, but its a shame that retro larpers are so ignorant.

Yeah, 90's animation and artstyle. I did not say anything about orphen.

>>279875815
And I'm pointing out how retarded and wrong you are.

>>279864567
Does that mean it's best to watch episodes 1-7 and then the TV series?

>>279875840
No, you aren't.

>>279875944
I am absolutely certain people like you obsessively sling your garbage here, not because you appreciate old anime, but because you want to lower the bar until the board is dumb and boring enough for you to participate on equal footing. Good anime never gets discussed. Its always trashy schlock.

>>279875884
The TV-series isn't that great either.

>>279875986
Neither are 90% of anime, there's not much else to watch

All garbage. People think because something is old it doesn't get to be held to the same standards as new anime and they can get away with bullshit, but the exact opposite is true. The older something is, the more heavily critiqued it deserves to be.

Watched it, now read manga, masterpiece. Have any other suggestions? Lodoss appeals to me because of fantasy + 90s aesthetic and atmosphere. I actually want to look more into the entirety of Sword World

>>279875970
Recommend some good anime then instead of just shouting into the wind

>>279876084

Go watch it now and stop wanking over garbage. You don't get to be spoonfed for shitting up the board.

Be honest anon the people whining about it are shitting up the board far more than the people discussing and interested in it. It's downloading and I may well watch it soon but I would have preferred something more immersive with more attractive characters

>>279876126

There is no discussion when its just you bumping the thread for 4 days and crying about everyone that doesn't go along with your narrative. Extremely newfaggy and cancerous behavior.

There are hundreds of generic isekai to watch. Now go away.

>>279876084
Read the novels and replays.

>Unicorn Overlord
All of the classes and playable characters in this game that wear sandals/show their feet are girls. The playable characters who show their feet are Fran, Selvie, Celeste, Rosalinde, and Eltolinde, all girls. The only generic classes that show their feet are gryphon knight/gryphon master and shaman/druid, all female classes. This pleases me greatly.

>>279875837
Also, if you can't tell, you have a png with a larger file size but somehow lower quality than the jpeg. You can do better.

>>279876503
I appreciate that her dress is see-through.

>>279876503
How is she hot?

I think it's alright, I can't believe what a big deal the show is though. It's cute and decently written, but it's pretty bland.

>>279874064
God, that's so good.
Why can't anime be released like this?
The colors were distracting from the pure animation that's going on.

>>279876030
>Ousama ranking
I like mute MCs.

>>279876782
It is great to see the artist's hand directly for a bit, but for a full episode, or a season, it's more immersive to be painted (even if there is no longer an ink & paint department). The presence of the animator is a reason I stick with anime though. Westoid animation went largely to pixar rendering and there's no end to intra-industry dick sucking trying to praise the medium, which is literally pointless to watch. May as well watch and critique AI.

>>279872886
what place DON'T they shit up is the real question
huehua

>>279876782
It's the same throughout the whole season
Even the 3rd tier supporting characters get high quality hand drawn animation cuts

you just sound like a bitch over people enjoying things like cynical stan from south park

Escaflowne did not deserve the production values it got. Crazy animation and soundtrack

>>279868419
Americans are fucking retarded, they need histrionic shonen reactions a la Kimetsu no Yaiba to understand how a character is feeling.

>>279877053
this webm has more emotions expressed through few facial frames than entire reddit no frieren lol

Frieren if she old and sovlfvll

>>279879027
too much emotions and her face is not a literal circle, sorry no

>>279878872
nta but it's not a straw man at all, everybody knows that anime got super popular since COVID. Alot of anime watchers now will not have seen much before demonslayer, the anime with the comically ott retards and flashy over animated facial expressions. Same applies across alot of shonen now, they have to try and pander to retards who speedwatch or watch Tiktok at the same time. Literally trying to grab their attention because if things are not flashing and people are not screaming they will zone out and miss how characters are responding.

So this is why like itt, when you put forward an anime character you would typical see in anime from decades before this modern trend they literally cannot tell there is any emotion because they don't dial the expressions up to shonenshit retard level

Modern anime watchers would have an utter meltdown if somebody sat them down to watch Eva for 8 hours of Rei's blank staring, stone faced monotone.

I like both Lodoss and Frieren.

It's basically a native isekai naroukei tier shit.

>>279878872
Histrionic cartoony characters only work jn comedies.
That's why I like them in Mob Psycho but I despise them in Frieren, the author is based for keeping these moments to specific scenes far apart from each other not breaking the general tone of the show (for the most part) instead of making them act like your average Shonen slop.

People that say characters in Frieren are monotonous are shonentards or americans that need everything explained to them

>>279829042 (OP)
>pseudo intellectual bullshit
it's pretty fucking clear, nothing intellectual or pseud about it
>why do redditors...
you don't like it due to it being popular and want to feel special about it by using dishonest framing.

>>279829042 (OP)
But the Lodoss OVA is a level of quality animation that I don't think people of the time at the time could have repeated. It is stunning to look at.
Frieren is not even remotely close to that tier of animation. It's bordering impossible now. Too costly and cel animation is dead, jim.

I wish Frieren was this level of quality. I wish any anime was this level of quality, even old cel anime.

>>279879304
Still images are not animation.

>>279829089
>and it was godawfully boring after like 4 episodes
I agree, but I am animation autist and there is not a single anime as well drawn. It's even beating Ghibli from the era. It's the magnum opus for japanese animation in my opinion.

Disney cel animation also peaked around that period too. Just when cel animation and digital techniques were synthesizing, but more cel orientated than digital effects orientated. By Tarzan that was all over (though even it, Atlantis and Treasure Planet had SOUL, despite being digital) and it seems like anime had the same issue by 1997. Hell even NGE had niggles.
There's just something in the techniques of that era that was just better. I often find music had the same problem when it transitioned from analog samplers and loopers to mere DAWs - the techniques changed and it made the music more bland. When some people started to avoid DAWs in the late 10s, it definitely proved the DAW was the issue.
It's the same with animation I think.

>>279879062
>Modern anime watchers would have an utter meltdown if somebody sat them down to watch Eva for 8 hours of Rei's blank staring, stone faced monotone.
Very telling that you left out the other characters. Using the girl who's meant to act like an emotionless doll as the example defeats your own point. The funny thing is Rei still shows more expressions than Frieren characters.

The former is something that couldn't be done in 1990 too. That's why it's cool, it's cutting new ground. The latter is retreading old ground and very badly.

Surely that's the Kenshin ova?

>>279830719
Deedlit is nothing like Frieren.
Frieren has her own moe and is more comedic with her design.
Deedlit has more ethereal beauty. Like an angel.

They both do two very different things in their show. Deedlit is a ditsy beauty. Frieren is ... an actual character kek.

Marcille is superior.

>>279879459
they are both supposed to be elves man

>>279879382
>Rei still shows more expressions than Frieren characters.
No she doesn't and there are an absolute mountain of other examples of characters from pre COVID anime that are the same. You complaining that Frieren's characters don't act like post-2020 anime retards like it's some sort of criticism is the funniest thing though

Frieren is okay. The major drawbacks it has are: 1) the narrative pretending the magic system is deep (it's okay to have a poorly developed magic system if it's purpose is to develop characters and help along the plot but stop pretending it has any sort of internal consistency lmao), 2) every ship the series tries to push being the worst thing I have ever seen with awful chemistry (except himmel/frieren which imo does work as an okay plot device), 3) the shipping and romance (outside Himmel/frieren) being so childish really takes away from the main themes of the show and makes it feel cheaper and childish, and 4) Kanne's design is jaw droppingly bad.
Overall it's an alright anime.

>>279879506
>No she doesn't and there are an absolute mountain of other examples of characters from pre COVID anime that are the same
Sure, whatever you say. I guess there are mountains of other examples of kuuderes.

>>279830932
>the shading
>the line drawing
>the design in general

Frieren wouldn't be Frieren if she was drawn this way. She'd be too serious for the show and too ethereal.

A better comparable character to Deedlit is Lafiel from Crest of the Stars. She's basically the same sort of character role, though not an elf (actually a human morphed for servitude(?) I forget) and in space.
It's a pity even by 1999 animation was dropping off fast. They really didn't do as well of a job for Lafiel as they did for Deedlit and she's a far better character.

>>279876782
It's not colors itself. It's modern anime coloring.

That's kinda sad.
Fuck they have such fucking bad shills there ay. This wouldn't surprise me that much. It's getting bad in the west too though, and Japan. Just to compete.
The whole culture is getting fucked from this.

The thing about account media is that it breeds mod grooming. That's much much harder on anonymous media without spam and paid shills.

>>279875803
I will admit, that does look better than Lodoss.

>>279875837
Man, vanillaware makes great looking games ay. 13 Sentinels looks stunning.

Isn't this game a gacha or something though? Sigh...

>>279879424
Yeah that was pretty good.
The main anime wasn't that great though.
The manga is stunning though.

The new show makes me want to nuke Japan.

They aren't though, you just have literal dunning kruger brainrot.

>>279881550
Kino no tabi is one of those anime that fits neatly onto the "retarded subhuman larper" lists.

>>279879459
Frieren isn’t a character either lmao, she’s just kuudere who learns how to feel no. 182648. No depth past that, so not really much better than Deedlit’s cute damsel in distress personality

>>279881995
Keep huffing copium as it slowly dawns on you how below average not only Lodoss is, but you are.

>>279879256
Again fuck off with your strawman, nobody is talking about LMAO goofy kny faces we’re talking about that constant bored looking resting bitch face every character in Frieren makes even during moments of tension. It’s monotone and destroys any. Even ‘mature’ anime will have expressive characters and I’m not talking KYAAAA, I mean they’ll show emotions in the eyes or open their mouth etc.

>>279882073
??? Both are generic af. Frieren is just post-campaign Lodoss, even has the same cliche hero-dwarf-priest setup.

Would you guys even have a chance withe either Deedlit and/or Frieren?

>>279882170
>Strawman
Yet you don't provide any example of Shonen that doesn't do that so I'm right.
Characters in Frieren do emote, if you are unable to see it then your brain is just rotted with Shonen or moeshit shenanigans, or you are just american.

>>279882596
>you are just american
Why do you think it is Americans when 99% of shitposters are European? Most of the posters in the /dbs/ and naruto generals are European, as we know from /bant/.

>>279882170

There's plenty of webms with the characters emoting. This is objectively memecriticism you made up, you never explain yourself how come you didn't look at one such webm and then complain when someone assumes that you expect shonen, or heck you just parroting someone who made the criticism. People will naturally have to make assumptions on what your meaning is if you make things up and don't elaborate, thats how it works pal.
