Who's your favorite anime writer and why?

Explain what's wrong with this quote.

Not my favorite, but Mari Okada makes good soap opera drama. She really knows how to exaggerate emotion (Script writer for Anohana, Kizniver, Toradora, Nagi no Asu kara)

>Who's your favorite anime writer
ABe.
>why?
He is good, shame that he work so slow.

>>283041918
Is he a writer? I'm pretty sure he mostly contributes the visual background and setting of the works he participates in and not much else

>>283041978
>Is he a writer?
Haibane was his work, his other works are mostly character designs.

Yoji Enokido
Kazuki Nakashima
Kimiko Ueno
Toh EnJoe

Urobuchi is a hack, acting as though there is something deep about his cheap jumpscares

>>283042188
someone missed the allegories

Yasuyuki Muto

>>283042073
Ryushika and Niea are all his, I think?

>>283041414 (OP)
What's Big Shou's biggest tragedy?

I'm not a big fan of Urobuchi, his scripts feel very clunky and mechanical, like he's doing the bare minimum amount of characterization just to justify a cause and effect, and many of his characters feel flat and underwritten as a result. It's especial apparent when you compare his writing in Fate Zero to Nasu's in the VN, you go from the textured and complex characters of the VN to one note jokes like Ryuunosuke and bland wastes of space like Kariya.

>>283042266
>characters
refuted by aristotle

>>283042208
Nah, it's just that in 40 years of anime watching, I've never seen a nip pull off
>muh allegories
in a way that excuses a cheap jumpscare. This kind of short and sarcastic, ESL or phonefag reply is because you couldn't explain it yourself.

>>283042514
>40 years and still being a plotfag

>>283041870
That's funny since I think she's a good comedy writer but for some reason she got stuck on mostly writing just terrible melodramas.

>>283042266
Yeah, exactly. It's almost obnoxious how easy it is to tell a character was written by Urobuchi, but with a whole anime written by him, they all blend together.

>>283042555
>you missed the allegories
>no, you're a plotfag!
lol. Make up your mind and reply properly instead of just weakly trolling.

I'm not sure if it's an individual or a collective of writers, but

Good writer.

Schizoid, aren't we?

>>283042266
>Nasu's in the VN

Bad bait, unless defenseless anusses are considered good writing.

>>283041414 (OP)
My favorite is Urobuchi (he's the only anime writer I know)

>>283043349
You've never read FSN and only know about the memes.

>>283042231
>Ryushika
Ah yes, I forgot this.
>Niea
ABe has done a little bit of everything in the anime/manga world, he even did a VN.

>>283043393
>You've never read FSN and only know about the memes.

>>283041414 (OP)
Gotta be Urobuchi. I've enjoyed just about all of his work and he made several of my all time favorites.

>>283043489
Looks like >>283043393 was right.

>>283042266
>like he's doing the bare minimum amount of characterization just to justify a cause and effect,
That's exactly the feeling I always got. You can tell he loves the dramatic fall but is bored to tears setting all the pieces in place.

>>283043519
Are all fate fags this retarded or is only (You)?

>>283043550
They're still insecure about people preferring Zero

Keiko Nobumoto

>>283042245
He doesn't get to creampie Tenmei or that apparent half demon childhood friend of his

>>283043679
Who?

>>283041414 (OP)
Keisuke Fujikawa, Shunichi Yukimuro. The old guard.

>>283044583

To put things into perspective, the only people who hate Urobuchi are Fatefags.

>>283046758
and derridafags

>>283046758
People who think Urubochi is a great writer wouldn't be able to name any other anime writer.

>>283046758
Aldnoah Zero is also terrible.

>>283043550
Fate fags can at least recognize when an excerpt is from Tsukihime.

>>283047425
there's a lot of bait shows where he only screenwrites like two episodes

>>283047490
nta, but you know that fate has h-scenes and they're just as awful right?

At least we can all agree that Okouchi is the worst high profile anime writer by a landslide.

>>283041870
Did the Butcher and Okada ever collaborate on anything? People used to ship them.

>>283047637
His work has gone downhill ever since he stopped working with Enokido. No clue why he thought he should write his own anime.
