What went wrong?

? I don't see anything wrong here, elaborate

>>283681655 (OP)
It's being produced by Warner Bros.

Looks almost like that Code Lyoko show artstyle.
>>283681805
I think he's just implying the anime designs are ugly compared to manga and Tom Cruise.

>>283681655 (OP)
literally nothing

>>283681655 (OP)
Put the light novel art on this too, it had illustrations by Yoshitoshi Abe, the artist for Lain

>>283681655 (OP)
Now I did not read the light novel, but the anime movie was a completely different setting than Edge of Tomorrow while having a similar premise. Because of this, I don't know if the end solution of the anime movie is closer to the LN than the live action movie's.

I saw it earlier this year at a film festival. It's still an entertaining movie, but you have to disassociate from previous versions. It's not a war story, it's a bad day for some arborists.

>>283681655 (OP)
Add the light novel art. Here's Rita Vrataski

>>283682608
And here's Keiji Kiriya

>>283681655 (OP)
Fixed your shit, OP

>>283681655 (OP)
The choice to use your own artsy chara designs when you could utilise EITHER the manga or the LN designs is bizarre. And frankly offensive.

>>283681655 (OP)
I'm curious did Tom Cruise read the source before shooting and did he like it.

>>283683152
It's Aku no Hana all over again

>>283681655 (OP)
The writing

Obata's art is too hot/cute
Abe has the vibe that Rita would be down for grim sweaty post-apocalyptic sex

>>283681655 (OP)
It's just what studio 4c does

Maybe you dislike the style, but I don't think you should hate something just because it has a style. Do you want everything to look the same?

>>283683505
I want things to look good. Being different doesn't excuse looking awful

>>283683556
This.
Looks butt ugly

>>283683556
Anime is a visual medium. Wait until you see it in motion.

>>283681655 (OP)

Why the fuck is she brown

>>283681655 (OP)
How many people in this thread that are mad at this have actually read All You Need Is Kill

>>283683844
No amount of motion will make those faces look anything less than hideous.

>>283683505
Studio 4 degrees C always looks like this, it's a lot less creative than you're saying and the animation style in addition to the ugly look is generally subpar. Easily the worst studio that has ever existed and the only studio who you can definitively write off a project from when seeing their name attached.

>>283681655 (OP)
Looks like studio 4C.

>>283681805
kys retard

>>283681655 (OP)
When I was young I used to like things "looking different" but I just cannot stand it anymore, and as an adult I don't have to pretend I do, I'm so fucking tired of things "looking different".
>>283681805
The anime looks worse than diarrhea.

>>283682711
Oh yeah, I forgot the light novel was illustrated by ABe

>>283683905
>Studio 4 degrees C always looks like this

Children of the sea? Spriggan? Memories: Magnetic Rose? Memories: Stink Bomb?

>>283682711
>LN
Good art
>Manga
Solid adaptation. Not as rough but both characters are still recognizable
>Live Action
Hollywood re-write and totally different characters
>Anime
I have no fucking idea what went wrong here and I hate it.

>>283683897
Read the book a few times and even provided comparisons during the manga storytime. But I don't feel the need to get to negative over this film because like the live action it's so unrecognizable from the source and doing it's own thing it doesn't really trample on the LN.

>>283685169
True, it can also look worse

>>283682711
You didn't fix it. Bottom is a movie.

>>283683505
>if you don't want something looking like dogshit it means you want everything to look the same
Kill yourself strawman faggot.

I'd need to see it in motion.
Typically when you see designs... in this sort of direction there is a overall vision that you can't appreciate from just a screen shot.
Although the background looking more typical doesn't bode well...

>>283682060
Credit where it's due, it's pretty hard to look as good as Tom Cruise

>>283682060
Most things are ugly compared to Tommy

>>283685251
>it's so unrecognizable from the source and doing it's own thing it doesn't really trample on the LN
It's a waste of an opportunity to get a real anime adaptation of All You Need Is Kill.

>>283681655 (OP)
What the fuck is that real?
And why? Wasn't Obata's art style & character designs a selling point?

>>283681655 (OP)
The slant eyes, very little shading, and the girl has a weird hair cut (her hair is almost like mutton chops or some kind of eye mustache, I don't know it's just weird).

>>283683863
Because Russian.

>>283681655 (OP)
quick edit, but this was the first thing that came to mind

>>283681655 (OP)
I know this is made by Japanese people and all, but this is drawn in such a way that it genuinely looks like a racist caricature of the Japanese.

>>283687322
The guy sure, idk what the girls is supposed to look like though but red hair and blue eyes doesn't seem very japanese.

>>283681655 (OP)
Another Twitter thread, were are the bans?

>>283687281
lmao

>>283686714
It absolutely is a waste. But I just can't get mad anymore when a project is perverted by studios not wanting to give accurate adaptations.

The live action movie was pretty good, I had no idea it was an adaption until after the fact. A nice summer popcorn movie.

>>283689275
>A nice summer popcorn movie.
Hate this buzzword

>>283689275
If you can ignore some of the glaring issues with the plot. It's passable as a film but still a really bad adaptation since it does nothing but crib the premise and some names from the Light Novel.

>>283681655 (OP)
Nothing? It's a Studio 4C production, they've made a couple of movies that look similar to this and nobody seemed to give a fuck.

Hell, nobody gave a fuck when they released Fortune Favors Lady Nikuko either, which is more "anime" looking.

>>283689579
>is a studio that nobody cares about, until they touch something people care about
Deep.

>>283689703
Ragebaiting twitter accounts don't give a fuck about the source material either.

>>283689765
Indeed, which makes the studio in charge of the adaptation caring even less about the source material much worse

Hollywood was an improvement on the original story and characters. I wish the anime followed the Hollywood version instead

>>283681655 (OP)
bottom looks interesting, especially because its such a big departure from the manga designs
it makes me want to check it out which puts it ahead of than 95% of shit that comes out every year

>>283689579
I don't hate 4C and don't even generally mind when they go for this look, but it doesn't really make sense for something like this.

>>283690668
I do kind of want to see where they go with it.

>>283681655 (OP)
This was a weird way to find out it's getting an anime adaptation. Kinda weird that it took over 20 years, and with that artstyle I'm almost wondering why even bother.

>>283693282
It's not even a proper adaption from what I've heard. It's going to be entirely from Rita's perspective instead of Keiji because they wanted to tell her story

>>283693617
Odd how they seem to having Keiji in a supporting role then, since he should realistically only be a factor in the final part of her story. At least the Mimics look cool and the animation seems fluid, but it's a shame what they did to the Jackets. Fairly interesting how every adaptation of the story is vastly different from each other with exception of the manga being fairly faithful to the novel.

>>283681655 (OP)
>>283682711
ENTER Rita Vrataski

>>283687281
kek

>>283687281
>>283693855
10/10 thanks for the chuckle.

>>283681655 (OP)
It's a Western adaptation. Of course it's not going to look like an anime.

>>283681655 (OP)
what's with the Psychonauts look?
>>283687281
lel

>>283693855
I kek'd but I also got annoyed

>>283681655 (OP)
Pretty sure the film is not an adaptation, but just used the manga as inspiration.

>>283697210
I thought it was that both the manga and the film are separate adaptations of the light novel, not related to each other

>>283681655 (OP)
yeah Edge of Tomorrow was basically a rewrite, still enjoyed it at least as much as the manga though
