Gridman Brossss, our sigma sequel might not be directed by amemiya WTF

>>283280862 (OP)
What the hell?

>>283280878
No Amemiya and presumably no Trigger at all? It doesn't sound good.

>>283280862 (OP)
>No LWA season 2
>No BNA 2
I sleep.

>>283280949

>>283280987
>>283280949
lwa tv and especially bna were absolute trash, dog. You need that sleep.

The video makes it sound like it'll double down on the high school side of Gridman. But Gridman was interesting for the contrast between the mundane and the toku/super robot parts, so I hope it won't just be a straight teen drama.

Either way it's nice to see Trigger work on a fully original anime after so long. Last one was in what, 2020?

As for what will happen to Gridman, it's hard to imagine the series without Amemiya or Trigger, and it makes too much money to leave it alone. Maybe they'll try to reimagine it into something completely different.

>>283280862 (OP)
Sounds interesting but where is the PV? I don't want to watch this bum

>>283281016
I think a sequel will still be announced this april. But wtf, man. No amemiya and no Ikarashi? Is it even still going to be trigger?

>>283281018
It says 31 October for the proper announcement

>>283281030
>Is it even still going to be trigger?
With how full their schedule is it doesn't seem likely. I have no idea who could even direct it.

>>283281009
I don't recall asking your opinion, mutt.

What is Yoshinari doing?

>>283281056
Nobody knows. It could even be just another music video like last year

>>283281045
is it even going to be ssss related lol.
If it feels like a completely different show., i'd probably be off the bandwagon.

>>283280878
he already said in a Gridman Universe TsubuIma interview that he wants someone else to take on the directing lead, just like how a lot of his favorite Ultraman series came from lot of different directors with different visions.

Hasegawa could still be the writer tho, i remember he's teasing a "big" unannounced project in his twitter a while back.

I hope Impact Cop will have a cameo

>>283280862 (OP)
Get back to dungeon meshi S2 already

>>283281112
>Hasegawa could still be the writer
Sure but Amemiya had a big role in the writing process, the voice dramas were all written by him. Either way it won't be the same.

>>283281133
It told you that it wasn't coming before 2027. Preproduction for a 25 episodes show takes a lot of time.

>>283281112
never read that interview before but man, it's so hard to imagine gridman directed very differently. I already know i'm going to be a salty faggot nitpicking little details.

>lenticular
Like those plastic things that change the image when you look at it from a different angle?

>>283281016
feels like it might be a photography anime? Just guessing.

>>283281174
Gridman had mystery elements maybe it's that but without mecha or toku.

Wonder if Masaru Sakamoto will still be the character designer

>>283281205
Studio has placed him under probation after what happened with the Rikka Gridman Universe thigh inflation scandal

>>283280862 (OP)
Oof, my nigga's looking rough. He should do something for that skin, he looks older than Imaishi somehow

>>283281205
For SSSS? I think he will still be.
>>283281217
He did character designs for NEW PSG

>>283281143
It won't be the same indeed, but can still feel familiar. Dyna, Nexus, S4. Gridman, all have very different tone, but there's something undoubtedly Hasegawa in all of em. How he handles mystery and teasing is one of em.

>>283281159
Denkou Chojin Gridman and S4.Gridman were already pretty different, so it'll eventually be different again.

>>283281324
>For SSSS? I think he will still be.
I meant for The Lenticulars. He'll only keep working on SSSS if it stays at Trigger, which seems dubious at the moment.

>>283281325
There's a 25 year difference between those 2. It's completely different and so was the target audience.
Also, I meant just the anime adaptations.
It's like going from Zoids Chaotic Century / New Century to whatever the fuck that came after. They're going to lose ALOT OF FANS

>>283281372
He's an animator first. Animators rarely get to do Character Designs.
I don't think he will be in Lenticulars. It's a 50/50 shot though.

>>283281016
>But Gridman was interesting
It wasn't

>>283281324
PSG started production years ago

>>283281238
He should pick up smoking.
Seemed to work for Miyazaki.

>>283280862 (OP)
This is probably the hype anime they teased at ax this year.

>>283280862 (OP)
Judging from what he says, this is so going to be notGridman without the mecha/toku that fags wanted.
Except it's not even going to be gridman related. Just a highschool mystery series.

>>283280862 (OP)
Kek did they get him drunk as fuck to film this
Sovl

I'm tired of this kind of announcement of the announcement.

>>283281066
itsallsotiresome

Akira Amemiya wrote lot of highschool short novels prior to gridman. The volleyball girls and akane friends were characters from his shirt novel. I expect this to be higschool related as well.

>>283281625
Those had yuri so hopefully this will too

Neat a cosmo

>>283281505
It's still a Trigger anime so I highly doubt there won't be action of some kind.
It doesn't seem the mecha animators from Gridman have done much since Universe either, so they might be involved (unless they're working with whoever is making Gridman S3)

>>283281625
the video was him talking about how he doesn't remember much about highschool. it's just grey. not bad, not good. just grey nothingness.
i assume it's about old men trying to regain their youth or something.

>>283281668
12 times a charm

>>283281380
It's becoming a franchise. It'll eventually be different again no matter how much time have passed.
>they're going to lose ALOT OF FANS
Dynazenon already lose a lot of big fame from S4. Gridman back then att of airing (only then able to bounce back after universe). That's often just the nature of new entry, regardless of the staff. Tsuburaya knew so well about that fact, with how much up and down the Ultra series get every year.

>>283281770
Better that than bad memories that haunt you forever.

Fuck, now gotta wait one week until they show what the anime looks like... There was no need for a pre-announcement announcement.

>>283281857
Not when the franchise is heavily reliant on the human characters.
This is one of the few mecha / toku where the human characters are more well KNOWN than the franchise title.

No amemiya is already driving a hard bargain. But if it's not even made by trigger or set in the SSSS universe, i can't see myself being a fan of this franchise for very long unfortunately.

>>283281870
Relax retard.

2025: NPSG
2026: The Lenticulars
2027: DM S2
2028: Edgerunners S2

>>283282275
2028 will have the next Imaishi project

>>283281891
Nay. The Mecha/Toku are just as much important for them. Those expensive as fuck toys always sold gangbuster. The GSC livestream about Gridman product pre-order is always the merrier one they did, because you can see the live count sales in it, and it always a lot. Hell, even outside of GSC, Bandai with the recent Shinkocchou Seihou SHF of Denkou Chojin Gridman, sold out in a minutes after the pre-order started.

>>283282401
I don't think they can delay CE2 further than that. Maybe it'll be a short like Luluco in 2016, or by then Trigger will be able to make two full length shows the same year.

I'm okay with this. I honestly think he did all he could with Gridman, Universe didn't have much to offer anymore beyond fanservice. I hoped the eventual third season would have a full new cast and setting, but an entirely clean slate with a new original anime is even better.

can you imagine if it's another shitpost like ninja slayer and inferno cop?
>>283283252
The gridman sequel will still happen. Just not without amemiya. They're hyping up the april event too much to not be a sequel announcement.

31st october will be the reveal trailer

>>283281133
More like get back to PSG Season 3. Hope Trigger aren't spreading themselves too thin.

>>283283361
nah. The sequel was disappointing. Better finish off DM which actually has a good ending.

>>283283344
I think they're done with shitposts for the next few years

>>283283380
Shit taste

Why are they not expanding their studio? They're literally the only studio that are still profiting off original ips unlike other studios making adaptation slops.

>>283283380
PSG Season 2 had issues but it's by no means bad or disappointing. DM has a manga, PSG literally only has an anime, the non canon doujinshi don't count.

>>28328344
do you not understand how production committees and employee wages work?

>>283283446
They are, but that results in less work outsourced outside the studio rather than more output.

>>283283446
Because you actually need talent to be willing to learn and most of Japan only cares about 'muh feelings' and producing mediocre dogshit at the moment. Look at shit like OPM Season 3.

>>283283506
I don't know what studio it was. But didn't the episode they outsourced for Dungeon Meshi look really good? The chilchuck episode. Just absorb them in trigger

>>283283361
It's better to wait a few years so there'll be a new generation of talent to give their take on the series. That's the main appeal of PSG for me. Since this thread us about Amemiya, he actually debuted as a director with the Transformers episode.

>>283283576
Yeah it's not so simple. I think they worked on Takopii recently? Anyway usually the people who stick around a studio were trained there from the start as inbetweeners.

>>283280862 (OP)
They're saving anime nonstop

>>283280862 (OP)
i hope you guys do know this has subtitles

>>283283344
>new studio announced for Gridman S3
>it's JC Staff

I am personally fine with no more Gridman under trigger. The boy saved the girl, group of teenagers saved their world and then all of them united to save the multiverse with their big space friend and it ended with the boy getting the girl. Couldn't ask for a better finale. This new Anime sounds like Kiznaiver 2.0

>>283283576
>just absorb 50 chinks into trigger
Sushio would blow his nuts off if that happened.

>>283284427
bleh. If it's a new studio, i think it might be either of this 3
>studio KAI
>Cypics
>Yostar
In other news, Kengo Saito is suddenly drawing rikka again

>>283284835
Didn't know it was a chink studio. Also, whats the context with sushio lol.

>>283280949
>me want sequel
>me want sequel
This is your brain on american media consumer

>>283283586
Did anyone debut on NPnS?

>>283285027
Sho Oi
Sae Otani
Yuuto Kaneko
Handa
Shimon Dohi

Noburo Furukawa and Chigusa Kyota did one episode before, but unlike for a regular show here they came up with the story and the former even wrote the script.

>>283284890
>Didn't know it was a chink studio
It's not.
Sushio was praising a right wing politician, basically irl Satsuki, who went on about the japanese being the master race and everyone else subhumans

>>283285457
lmao

>>283285457
sushio's a manic depressive fuck so it makes sense he fell into the righty rabbithole

>>283284845
No way they're using Trigger created characters

>>283287372
Shuhei handa is still in trigger but he does a shit ton of character design work for other studios. The new ghost in the shell is one of them

>>283288775
They're not original characters though. I think the characters created for SSSS are at least partially owned by Trigger. They couldn't whore them out like they do if they weren't.

>>283284806
It'll be Amemiya's Kare Kano

bump

>>283286509
>sushio
>manic depressive
What? Proof?

>>283282275
you might wanna add the upcoming new untitled comedy anime Imaishi is working on to that(it was in may 2024 btw):https://animecorner.me/studio-trigger-new-anime-will-be-a-comedy-series/

>>283292104
What else could have been working on 17 months ago if not NPSG?

>>283282275
It's more like:
2026: Renticulars
2027: DM2 (heavily outsourced) and ER2
2028: Imaishi's

>>283292453
If anything CE2 is the first Trigger anime in a long time likely to have significant contribution from freelancers, since Ikarashi and his pals got a lot of contacts doing work in high profile shows.
