The Grail Games OOC X

The noses never bothered me. Funny, cause in real life noses tend to be the thing I notice most (besides hair). :P

Lol. XD I don't think that's Naruto's normal style.

Naruto, at least in the original series, was an odd example because the episodes seemed to fluctuate in style. Some were in higher quality, and others in noticeably lower quality.

I've watched the movie. It never bothered me. It was very good overall.

The art style for the new anime though... it just kind of bothers me. Like Rin's design is fine. I get the impression that they're good with flowing styles, but things more choppy like the boys' hair tends to just look like some kind of Lego block.

i'm not gonna question how you see that, everyone has their own perpective, for me they have always had that hair style

but it just saddens me for you to say that the movie was good when they butchered the story, specially the best part of the route which was Archer's monologue

Katanagatari actually has a thing where they change the artwork in a bunch of episodes.

Well I'm nagging on the noses

Perfect. Thank you.

To be honest, I thought the artwork in the movie was better than the anime. But if they do justice to the story, I guess I can't complain.

When did I say that? Ever? I'm talking purely art. The movie butchered the plot.

oh ok, good then :<

plus this anime will be more through Rin's perspective than Shirou's

I thought they were doing more of a Fate/Zero thing

But still focusing on Shirou

That's good.

A F/Z thing? What, giving the other teams more screentime? I doubt it.

Honestly, I think only the VN can truly do the story justice. The problem is that adapting a VN to anime or a first-person perspective book to a movie is that changing the medium changes the perspective, and thus the dynamic of the story.

Well when it practically never ever shows the protagonist in the VN...

the main focus will be Rin with secondary focus on Shirou

It's not that, really. It's more about how the VN characterizes many things from their point of view and has a LOT of script involving their thoughts and feelings. In an anime where it's third person, things are not colored from their point of view and we lose out a lot on their personal thoughts and feelings, etc.

For instance, it's going to be impossible for an HF adaption to properly capture the way Shirou starts to lose his mind and pieces of time after he loosens the Shroud.

There better be some Taiga action. And Issei fanservice.

Well, in the case of the VN anyway, this is the route in which they get the most screentime. :0

isnt there a scene where shirou forces issei to strip?

Yup lol

god that scene was awesome, but i can already tell people reaction. "SHIROU WHY U SO DUMB!"

That was a truly hilarious scene, mostly cause of Issei's reaction.

So what's up?

Not much. :0

I'm surprised Maou is giving up so easily.

She resigned that they're all going to die in the end, remember?

Vivi was a one-sided friendship, in Maou's loveable way

So Edmond doesn't even get the "friendly" banter, huh?

Well, despite my intention to give you guys development time, no one seems all that into it. So I guess tonight we'll go ahead and have some action.

Meira's full of development. You're asking her to casually chatter with a minion that isn't even hers.

Well yeah, but...

.....meanie. I'm doing the best I can.

Hey if you want her to interact with them then have them want to interact with her.

>>;


"Hey, where'd you bury that girl? I need to piss on her grave."

I can edit that in if you want.

I did, didn't I?

Lol. No, I don't think so.
