Honestly reading through all of these interviews explains a lot of what went wrong with Hi-Evo, and it confirms a lot of what Yea Forums has been saying now.

>Sato and Yoshida recognize E7 was made in a day and age in the anime industry that can't be replicated now
>Sato and Yoshida acknowledge that the methods of animation and how anime is perceived nowadays has changed
>They both know that E7 was a once-in-a-lifetime achievement that can't be repeated
>They've accepted that moved on, like the rest of the world
>Kyoda is so desperate to recapture that lightning in the bottle and he's now bitter and angry he can't do it again
>Kyoda doesn't understand the world has moved on

It's sad to think that it takes Dai Sato, the fucking CREATIVE MASTERMIND of the whole series, to tell us this. I just wish he had the courage to say this to Kyoda so we wouldn't be subjected to all of these crappy films.

Kyoda comes off as such an asshole in this interview. It's like he's desperate to be a bigshot like Hideaki Anno or Shinkai or Hosuda and he's pissed that every time he tries, he fails.

It's sad to think I once respected him.

>Dai Sato
>CREATIVE MASTERMIND of the whole series
He was just a fucking writer. E7 was Kyoda's baby and he's been spearheading all these projects while Dai has gone on to prove that he's just as much of a hack with his other works.

Sato came up with the original concept, composed the original screenplay and even wrote many of the episode scripts himself. Kyoda, at least back then, executed them. Granted, the director makes the final call in most productions but to say Sato had no influence on Eureka 7 is just wrong.

>hack
Space Dandy was fucking amazing, what are you talking about?

>the second half of Space Dandy was fucking amazing

not him but ftfy

Sato only wrote a handful of episodes. His scripts weren't even the best ones.
No.

He should recognize that it was a product of the time, and trying to make the same thing in a different age will never work.

Wrong. The initial idea came from Kyoda and he spearheaded the project with Sato coming out as the main composer. Its the main reason why these projects keep getting approved his because E7 is his baby where Sato's writing credit only extends to the first series.

>Space Dandy was fucking amazing,
No it was not. It had very bad comedy and forgettable characters hence why it was a huge flop in both Japan and America.

Japan don’t like wantanabe shows because he hates Japan

>No it was not.
Yes it was.
>It had very bad comedy
Only a fraction of the episodes were comedic, many didn't have comedy at all. And the comedic ones were good.
>and forgettable characters
The characters were great.
>hence why it was a huge flop in both Japan and America.
Ad populum is a fallacy.

>Yes it was.
No
>Only a fraction of the episodes were comedic
Space Dandy is a comedfy jackass
>The characters were great.
Nope
>Ad populum is a fallacy.
No

>No
Yes.
>Space Dandy is a comedfy jackass
So you didn't even watch it. How are episodes 9, 11, 15 and 21 a comedy, to name some?
>Nope
Yep.
>No

Interesting interviews about how cgi is simply inevitably the future of Japanese anime, since there's a shortage of good artists remaining who still bother doing hand drawn animation.

Should I watch E7? I downloaded it ages ago but never watched past the first ep. Is it really worth it?

>Should I watch E7?
No

Yes, but only the original series. Everything else is absolute trash.

If you honestly can't be bothered to watch past episode 1, then you just shouldn't do it.

It wouldn't be a problem if anime production didn't increase of 700% in just a few years. An industry crash is desperately needed.

But it won't happen, however. The increased numbers of anime studios is now set, and producing myriads of shows with a minimum of cost for a maximum of licensing fees is what makes the whole thing profitable. Quantity beats quality.

Wow, Kyoda is a fucking asshole.

Japan didn't even like E7.

If the first episode wasn't enough to convince you to watch it, you should probably just kill yourself.

Not him but I didn't like it until like episode 8

>Japan didn't even like E7
It's because Eureka didn't die in end. The Japanese can't live with "MUH TRAGIC ROMANCE"

The fanbase grew up and realized how garbage the writing really was.
