>TMS Entertainment animated Sora to Umi no Aida, an anime based on a dying mobage
>TMS Entertainment is animating this show, which is also based on a (dying?) mobage
What did they mean by this? Also new episode tonight.
Also, is it true that the ED is actually a famous Japanese song and is associated with baseball? Something about Koshien?
I don't understand why this anime isn't popular. It's cute girls doing cute things, isn't that a recipe for success?
Tsubasa a best
> sports
> QUALITY
> mobage adaption
tends to put people off
Mobage adaptions had a pretty good run before this show.
they can be good but this one has other negatives putting it off
1. Sports. Most people don't care about it.
2. Animation is very shoddy.
3. Absolutely no fanservice.
That's three strikes.
Is this anime still QUALITY?
A lot of mobage adaptations have been good, but not very financially successful.
>1
Didn't stop Haikyuu, Free, or Uma Musume
>2
Didn't stop 5toubun
>3
Didn't stop a lot of shows
You know what's funny? The VA of Ruby from SoraUmi is also in this anime, voicing Tomoe.
They usually have a dedicated fanbase, but aren't THAT popular.
Baseball blows.
>They usually have a dedicated fanbase
Even Space Fishing?
Why do these things always have orange-haired genki MCs? LL, LLS, SoraUmi, and now this.
I never paid attention to the threads, no idea.
So how come that space fishing show, which was also animated by TMS, had okay animation, but this one is instead full of QUALITY?
Only had to read the first 4 words to realize this is another MKL talking to himself thread.
Yeah, but those shows didn't have all THREE problems at once.
How did you say it's him? He hasn't posted in this thread.
How many hours until the episode?
I can only see it as a bad run of barely getting any attention. Between this, Space fishing, Million Arthur and Pastel Memories they've all been mostly ignored in the last few seasons.
Of those I can sort of see why they're ignored as aside from Million Arthur they've just been okay.
You also forgot Circlet Princess: I know it's a browser game, but the mechanics are similar.
>You also forgot Circlet Princess
I managed to forget that despite getting the Ryuuji sub batch. There was also Merc Storia that I recall someone trying to get people to watch it.
From what I've watched Manaria Friends is the only mobage success in recent seasons, and is also the only one that seemed to get a budget.
>that pic
My god
Was there a week long break or something? There was no episode last week.
Break due to French Open
>tfw we will never get another masterpiece like this ever again
But we just had Bermuda.
Fucking French, I almost thought the show got pulled off air because of the QUALITY.
Wouldn't be surprised though if that was actually the case and the French Open was just an excuse.
Hachigatsu would be more popular if it had bathing scenes.
I guess the overlap area between dudes who enjoy cute girls and dudes (female) who enjoy baseball is actually not so large. I for one find extreme comfy zone mixing meisei story and cinderella 9.
Good for you
I don't think it really needs overlap if it does the CGDCT side right. I don't think a significant number of people here are into camping or mountain climbing yet with cute girls and nice dialogue it can get recognition.
I want to be Tsubasa's first time.
>Actually famous nip song
Yes.
youtube.com
Too late
Doujinshi when?
Needs more best girl
Gotta give credit to the guy who came inside baseball Honoka 5 times.
Her face looks so fucking weird here
This
What was the cause of her scar?
I watched the first two episodes, but ended up dropping it. None of the girls really stood out to me, and it was just kinda boring in general. And I'm saying this as someone who watches 99% of cute girl slice of life shows.
Senpais and Umaru are best girls, too bad there's almost no focus on them
TMS only produced it, the actual animation is done by 5 studios by the names of Studio Comet, Studio Twinkle, Rocket Production, Hiwa and A-Line, TMS did not have anything to do with it animation wise (same with the Bakugan reboot as thats done by Studio Hibari).
Will she be ok now or is her family still shit?
Space Fishing was just so dumb I had to drop it.
Bermuda was great. Easily the hidden gem of last season. I'm using this show as a replacement for it.
She has a cute girlfriend now, she will be fine.
Is this a joke? Should I try Bermuda?
Bermuda was underrated.
Bermuda was as bad as the fishing one.
Bermuda was way better than Sora Umi. It was actually fun and had good characters. It was stupid but silly and relaxing too while Sora Umi was just really dumb and had annoying drama.
Best girl Caro here. I hope her VA gets more work.
Indeed.
>New episode tonight
tv-tokyo.co.jp
RIP.
>Probably 2 hours of Tennis
I wonder if they are going to delay the episode to next week.
But today at least
The latest tweet for the anime has the broadcast schedule for episode 8 as tonight.
>【第8話に関するお知らせ】 放送予定 テレビ東京 6/2深夜1：35～ テレビ愛知 6/2深夜1：05～
. . .
I want her to rub my balls.
twitter.com
The usual channel is going to air the episode presumably next week but other TV channel is still planned to air the episode tomorrow.
Bermuda also did a nice job being just a simple SoL despite the Cardfight setting, while Sora to Umi never knew if it wanted to show mobage action or CGDCT. At least it will always be remembered for the Murrican disregarding Japanese cuisine webm.
I really liked Bermuda. It was a low budget calm SoL that was related to that card game franchise, so everyone ignored it. But if you like that kind of relaxing SoL, you might like it.
Space Fishing on the other hand I watched only for Ruby, and it still felt like wasted time.
And what is Crunchyshit going to do?
Overall it was alright. I almost forgot to continue watching it a few times though.
I looked forward to it every Saturday. but yeah, most people will find it boring.
Describe this girl in one word.
I'll start: "meek"
onahole
It's obviously a joke.
It's ok, the team is supposed to help her situation.
Why didn't they get Kizuna AI to promote the anime? I bet that would've helped.
She's busy making deals and getting sponsors with old business men.
Cute
Nah, those anons are likely being truthful. I agree that it was a pretty enjoyable anime despite its low budget, but I'd imagine most people probably wouldn't enjoy it as much as me. It was a fun and stupid show with some genuinely great scenes that I wouldn't have expected from a show like it and I liked the premise of a bunch of cute girls revitalizing and maintaining a movie theater and the whole town gathering to watch movies every once in a while. Honestly, I wish a better anime would re-use that premise with better writing and characters. Maybe something like Fune wo Amu, but with maintaining a movie theater instead of creating a dictionary.
No lies here, but I can understand why it's unpopular and why most people would skip or drop it.
>Due to French Open broadcasts, episode 8 has been pre-empted and is scheduled for 6/9
Being a shit and delay it until next week despite another TV channel is still planning to air episode 8 tomorrow.
One weird thing about the space fishing anime is that someone working on it must have had an age gap fetish. Like the couple who ran the noodle shop was an old man with a young girl. MakiMaki had daddy issues and exclusively dated older men apparently. It was a weird quirk that seemed a bit out of place for the show. Also the tomboy was pointless and didn't do anything like the other characters.
So is it actually going to be delayed yet again? That sucks.
autistic
3 episode rule, that's it
Is this the obscure-anime-only-you-watched-thread?
>underwater illogicalities
They totally knew what they were doing.
Not really.
Yeah, all of them were hilarious.
>too weak to cut soggy toast
Ange Vierge is the reason why "Show based on a mobage with no real premise" stopped being a turnoff for me
Did they farted underwater?
There's no new episode to talk about.
Now that there's no episode coming out it's either that or the thread dies.
Suppose it's a good time to say Watch Million Arthur.
>no episode
>again
This show is terrible, it's basically turn your brain off for enjoyment. I'm glad I watched it as it aired because I can't imagine watching more than 2 consecutive episodes of this
It's a shame that you're such a pleb but don't worry
Don't bully Canon.
What, it is delayed again? This show is cursed.
Dropped the show because this shit was triggering my autism too much.
3DPD sports ruining everything once again. They don't even have cute autistic girls.
no that's shoumetsu toshi that me and 7 other anons are watching
This shit has been cancelled and they don't know how to say it.
I would watch an anime about her.
There are probably a few more like me who watch it but don't bother with the threads
Did it commit Haduku?
I don't really want to hijack this thread since I'm honestly really enjoying this show but when the hell am I ever gonna get the chance to talk about Bermuda or Akanesasu Shoujo again?
You can just make a thread about them.
To be fair, this week's episode was good because it provided how LOST happened
open you wallet anons
Episode is delayed so might as well.
>Pluck weed everyday!
>no ep again
i guess tsubasa stole all the balls again
>Akanesasu Shoujo
She's staring into my soul...
and your balls
>I don't understand why this anime isn't popular.
I think you might have trouble understanding a lot of things if this is enough to stump you, user.
Wait: the episode got delayed again?
Nah I dropped bermuda instead, only yurifags latched onto it like the usual. Better waste your time on space fishing, shit kinda fun and nicer aesthetics too.
Crossover when?
A week or a few hours?
Totally forgot we didn't get an episode last week either. What was the reason for that?
Tennis
Was AS only liked by yurifags? The threads seemed full of them towards the end.
Yuri? Hell now I'll watch it
Nah, personally I love it due to the "going into other worlds saving shit" and henshin shit, great CG too, also that >forgive/love yourself theme. But yeah, thread full of them towards the end.
Bring your tightest goggles though I only watched it until episode 4 and kinda forgot about it mid season, it has some somewhat soothing underwater background arts.
People liked it before the yuri stuff
>Delayed again
What the fuck is it with this idiotic scheduling? It's not like they didn't know the French Open was happening, the tournament's been going for over 100 years
I'm sure the studio fucking jumped at the chance to have two weeks to get their shit together a bit more.
twitter.com
Only one day since the channels that air the show on Monday nights aren't going to delay it this time around.
Dunno what's going to happen with the subs though.
It's basically a case of subtext in actual literary definition. Girl A is in love with Girl B and you can notice it long before she confesses, but it's more noticeable in the second half, and most people tend to curb their expectations on original stories due to most of them not venturing beyond plausible deniability. In AS it's much harder to deny it. Still, said feelings, while important, are not in the center of the story.
Talking about tennis and obscure shows, did anyone else here watch Softenni?
That's beside the point and it isn't the only anime affected by this, it's like the World Series "suddenly appearing" in the TV schedules and everything having to be changed at the last minute, do the Japs really not plan that far in advance?
Are you talking about Akanesasu?
Barely any yuri, just very slight undertones. At most was some handholding. I really don't even remember a lot of yurifagging in the threads anyways.
Yeah I did. It was pretty fun. Sillier than most cute girls doing cute things, closer to Sabagebu.
Yes. Akanesasu isn't a yuri anime, but it is an anime with yuri. Every character has an arc, and for one character it's about their love for another character, which ends up being requited.
They presented the yuri as kind of a joke with EroYuu so I don't think many people took the idea of it seriously until the confession near the end. But yeah, it wasn't the focus of the story, just a part of it that ended up working pretty well.
> confesses her undying homolust for asuka in the last episode
> not a yuri anime
Akanesasu hooked me in on the JUSTICE arc. It went from being an okay show that I would forget about to one of my most anticipated anime of the season. The yuri is a plus, but the anime easily stands by itself, the final episode being pure kino
Cowgirl Asuka was great. And normal Asuka really ended up being the star of the show by the end.
Something like Strawberry Panic is a yuri anime because yuri romance storyline is at a centerstage of the plot. Akanesasu is anime with yuri, since it has explicit yuri that is none the less a sideplot. Like a difference between romance anime and anime with romance.
sorry i misread your post and thought you were denying the existence of it, gomen
but yes i do understand the difference
Seriousuka was best Asuka
Interesting that the AS mobage got an offline version after the game closed when most mobage are gone forever when the close.
This.
You mean Siri Asuka.
*Assuka
Softenni is more on the comedic side, not much substance to it but it wasn't a bad show.
I would have forgotten it completely if it wasn't for the music which is great and still on my anisong playlist, incidentally along with the recently released HachiNai OP theme single by Miyuhan.
Cutest miso thief
Why is the ED a cover? No budget?
How well did Bermuda sell?
It's the opposite actually - I've no idea why anyone would watch this at all. Even I only watch it hoping for surprise yuri a la Akanesasu.
Shit like this is why I'm always wary of all female casts. It's usually yuri goggles, until it isn't and ruins everything.
I find shows like this charming. It's just good clean fun and the complete lack of a budget is endearing.
Is there a reason why yurifags and CDGCTfags hate guys so much? Not even yaoifags hate girls as much.
>tfw shorter than a 15 yo deputy
I'm a yurifag and I love guys.
Delicious soft Xebec girls.
Isn't 180cm giant-tier in Japan? What the hell, she didn't seem that tall in the anime
Because they're retards.
The yurifag salesfag hates guys, specifically "self-insert MCs". He also avoids most shows with males like he's allergic to them. I can think of several other yurifags who act similarly.
I still remember that dude who made everyone orgasm with his massages
Because they're casuals. Boys might not be as cute as girls, but there's nothing wrong with them existing.
I feel it's more how they're done than the presence of men. GJ-bu could've been a great CGDCT show but the harem-like atmosphere with how much all the girls liked the personality devoid guy got in the way.
Compared to that there's SoL like Acchi Kocchi that was good because it was just a quite nice pairing instead of harem.
Does this show have yuri?
Sometimes the show is just better off without male romantic interests.
How about NNB? That had male characters but it seems most CDGCTfags who aren't yuri purists liked it.
both shows have threads on /u/
It's strange though. Most yaoifags seem to tolerate females existing in their shows, and only the most rabid or delusional ones think the women are potential love interests wanting to steal away the guys from having BL love.
Not so far.
The guy literally never speaks.
Who cares? Taiga is singing the ED song, it makes this anime worth watching.
youtube.com
Shows are better with no romance crap, actually.
Taiga?
Do yaoifags have the equivalent of the class S shitposters?
Considering any male characters in yuri seems to bring those sorts of posters it helps to have fewer in the story.
Like we saw at the end of Manaria Friends the characters don't even have to exist for it to happen sometimes and they fanfic some men that will marry them at some point.
Guess it has to do with yaoi being more separated from mainstream romance stories by design. As in, yaoi authors usually write for a very specific audience, using yaoi as a main dish. Whereas yuri is less defined and often used as a side dish, with relatively more frequent cases of bait&switch, plausible deniability or non-ending.
Yuri fans are just burned more often, so they tend to overreact more often.
>Do yaoifags have the equivalent of the class S shitposters?
just go into any "it's time" thread and you'll see arguments about how Sarazanmai, isn't REALLY homo. And that's just this season.
So now that they have more than 9 players, who is getting benched?
So yurifags basically have super strong goggles and keep setting themselves up for disappointment?
The poorfag.
These two
Partially that and partially real observable cases of writers intentionally using "lesbian" characters/situations as a bait for readers only to switch it out or give it no development.
How long will the episode be delayed?
It's fine to have your seasonal pleasures, but please don't compare them to genuinely great shows like they're the same thing.
A lot of yurifags don't understand the difference between love and sexual desire, having only experienced the latter and never the former. Also, they lack the imagination to make things up in their heads, so when there's no "payoff" they get assblasted
Tennis was here. Baseball is a loser.
>another delay
Damnit I was hoping to watch cute baseball girls again. Oh well.
based
> 2 weeks without balls
We were too greedy so they took the balls away.
Ping Pong was here.
Basketball is a loser.
So when is the new episode? Tomorrow or next week?
That's unfortunate, can never have too much QUALITY. How could they deny us that?
Months from now, just like Haduki's show
What I'd give to have another show with Usakame's coloring
Haduki's story is already completed though, as of last month.
I know, I was saying that the remaining episodes will air months from now just the way it happened with Haduki's show.
I made some bullying material.
I'd make it rain on her, if you know what I mean.
How likely is it that the game will close by the end of the year?
When did it launch?
June 27, 2017
Bermuda was one of my favourite things about last season. ED was great. Show was comfy and enjoyable.
Don't bully Akane!
God damn it, where's the show?!?
It got struck out.
I'll stop bullying once she gets better.
If that ever happens.
I think you might be in the wrong place, little lady. Bukki and the Precure thread are that way.
How come mobage adaptations rarely do well?
Low budget, need more shots of the girls thighs
When will this dumbass studio ever learn that don't put pricks in your all girls anime? It flops so easily.
Says the guy who won't accept the fact that KF S2 tanked hard despite having zero guys, or how Kemurikusa was a success despite not only having a male MC, but actually ending with a het end. Or how Yagate Kimi ni Naru was one of the best selling canon yuri shows in years, despite having male characters.
Besides most mobage being actual cash-grab garbage, there's no one behind them that actually cares about them. So, not only is the source soulless, but the animators and writers don't put any of their own soul into it. And then there's the limited budgets for non-Cygames mobage.
There are obvious exceptions like Bermuda Triangle, Last Period, and Shingeki no Bahamut S1 where the staff actually put some effort into the anime to not just be some sad adaption of a mobile game, but most of them remain a sad existence merely made to get more people into the mobage and make some money off blurays.
The takeaway here, I think, is that mobage anime should just completely ignore the actual story and make up a new, original one that has the characters goof around the whole time and just have fun. Adding in drama or sticking to the original feels like the wrong move in every case.
Actually, Cardfight Vanguard is a real card game without a mobile game, right? My bad.
>mobage adaptations rarely do well
>more shots of the girls thighs
Now your talking my language.
Toji no Miko flopped too.
>there's no one behind them that actually cares about them
The VAs of Space Fishing did it seems, they even tweeted their thanks when the game closed down.
This, and also spats.
Yeah, I actually wanted to counter myself by saying the seiyuu actually usually put some heart into their performances even in the lowest budget shows.
Reminds me of when anons post Tweets of new seiyuu talking about doing their best for low-budget shorts and stuff, like JK Meshi, Crane Game Girls, and others. It's cute and makes me want to cheer for them.
Is it me or those thighs look QUALITY as hell?
>here's a bunch of exceptions
>but trust me all of them are like this
Please stop before you turn into a fully retarded salesfag, there's still hope for you.
Most of the Space Fishing VAs were newbies, right?
I remember people sharing some tweets from Caro's VA from Bermuda Triangle and it seemed like she really enjoyed the role.
I don't know what you're getting at, but most of the mobage adaptions I've seen and have heard opinions about are garbage. I don't care about sales, I care about content.
Yes, except for the orange haired and blue haired girls' VAs. And even they weren't that popular to begin with.
I'm more worried about her head
She's a dullahan, it's fine.
That's like thinking you have a chance with the girl who waited on you in a restaurant because she smiled at you. It doesn't mean anything, it's her job.
Seiyuu are paid to do PR that means social media too.
Any examples of QUALITY from the show?
Outside of the low quality visuals it has sometimes, the glove in this scene is supposed to specifically be a dark blue color.
>low quality visuals
Such as?
There are pictures posted in the thread, user. Just check for one of the best. Or go through the archives and look through the previous threads.
my two loves are baseball and CGDCT anime, and I still think this show is pretty shit
>***,581 (▼***,521) 八月のシンデレラナイン Blu-ray 第1巻
Wait, the Nips actually care about this show?
How do fuck do you read this numbers?
Based nips
Surprisingly it's doing better than Bokuben (for now)
Now they can get funding for all the balls they want.
That's the power of baseball.
Tsubasa is surprisingly sexy
All of them are sexy
>Shingeki no Bahamut S1
you saying that like there is second season or something
Good, I want bokuben to end and sensei to win
Not at all. Just future-proofing my post in case a second season ever gets made, is all.
All of the balls! Also I love the OP, never skip it
I want to lick Tsubasa's pits
Are the VAs popular or are their game bonuses with the BDs?
BDs just went up for preorder a few days ago so probably fans buying early. Expect the rank to drop like a rock soon.
Just came back home, where is the new episode???
Delayed again. Hopefully just for a day instead of a week though.
Any news on when the episode is coming out?
Nice armpit
I need my weekly fix of spats and balls.
Tsubasa is sexy
Tsubasa is the most underrated girl of the season.
That might have something to do with how men generally consider purity/virginity desirable in women, while women are generally attracted by assertiveness and success in men, which includes an active sex life. Also, a huge part of yuri is about being more pure, childish and innocent than regular romance, while yaoi prides itself on being forbidden and rotten to some extent.
Episode when?
Soon.
How soon?
Who knows
god I hate the tennis now
Screw the episode, where's the Tsubasa porn?
Is it the French's fault, again, as to why we don't have a new episode yet?
It seems like there is a new episode today..
Why aren't you using Uma Musume anymore, shit fucking stain? Didn't that sell well? Oh wait, it's fucking dead. Karma's a bitch. asshole.
>Yagate Kimi ni Naru was one of the best selling canon yuri shows in years, despite having male characters.
Were you living in a cave, retard? YagaKimi got fucking exposed. It didn't sell well at all. Why would a yuri anime with shit pricks sell? No wonder Citrus flopped
>How Kemurikusa was a success despite not only having a male MC, but actually ending with a het end
And yet it got outsold by a fucking yuribait short and an all-girls mobage anime
You really love making an ass out of yourself by posing as me, using my favorite Serval and my salesposting shit against me. Bringing up those bullshit shows that can't outperform K-On and KFS1's sales and you don't reply to me everytime I bring up these facts because you think you're a smartass for not doing it. Jashin barely sold enough and got S2 eventually. Uma Musume's bullshittery showed that sales aren't always the endgame, you fucking stalker poser.
>Already going to be delayed at least 12 minutes because Tennis again
Hoping it isn't going to be completely pre-empted.
Superior gaijin genes.
what's her disability?
autism
so cute yet so useless
She is useful for my heart.
Didn't say "Spats 'n' bats". Son, I am dissapoint.
twitter.com
It's only going to be delayed 12 minutes although who knows about the subs.
I guess this show should have been about tennis then.
how unfortunate
And my dick.
One more hour.
WHERE ARE THE BALLS?
soon
The studio sent people to France to delay the tennis matches and buy some extra time.
Starting.
>A TV channel started airing the episode one week earlier than usual TV channel
>Going to take a break next week
What. Raws when?
Apparently never either
So will these girls ever get the balls they want so much?
>aside from Million Arthur they've just been okay.
Excuse me?
Still on the backlog so I can't judge that one but for the rest I feel 6/10 is the best I could give.
Also does that even count as a mobage adaption considering the game launched after the anime started?
Your Asuka seems to be broken.
Well it's been over a day and no subs so I guess we'll have to wait another week. Fuck tennis.
The episode had already aired in a TV channel in Japan but no raw yet although it seems CR still insists they are going to release the episode next Sunday instead.
I assume streaming sites like CR get some timed exclusivity rule so they can't upload it until after certain TV stations have.
I'm sure I've seen this happen before where the TV airing gets delayed and the stream gets delayed the same amount.
Hopefully to catch up they'll air 2 episodes back to back at some point otherwise this show is going to run into next season.
It's about the journey, not the goal.
Well, currently Kemurikusa is the third biggest seller of the Winter 2019 season only behind Manaria "Gacha Codes" Friends and Bandori and you need to remember that we are talking about a completely new and original anime that is only 12 episodes long and with no popular gacha game or manga or light novel to back it.
The latest and highest verified sales number for Kemono Friends Volume 1 is 40813, reported around eight months after it went on sale, Kemurikusa Volume 1 has sold 14353 and Kemono Friends 2 Volume 1 has sold 458, so the drop from KF1 V1 to KK V1 is currently at 64,83%, meanwhile the drop from KF1 V1 to KF2 V2 is currently at 98,88%, so someone must call the Record Guinness because we have a record drop here.
Kemurikusa was promoted only as the new series by Tatsuki and Yaoyorozu and the objective was to make a series that the people could enjoy, so seeing the huge acclaim and sales that got from the fans then the objective has been fulfilled.
>lesbian ntr everywhere
I thought it was about sport.
I'm catching up with the series. I think it's enjoyable enough. The quality is jarring at times though.
On another note, those are some big butts.
>trying to talk with a shitposter
Pic related.
And where the hell are my ball-handling cuties? Do we have to wait till next week?
>Delayed again
fire sale
Raws when?
Dumb cat
>Leopard is MIA
>Ohys being Ohys
Who knows.
Which of them is the self insert
MC is a girl, there is no self insert
So tomorrow?
only boomers like baseball at this point, no one else cares
Then why do Nips dream of going to Koshien?
Because cartoons aren't real life. Bloomers haven't been the official girls gym uniform for decades, but 60s-born authors kept them in manga for years and years because that's all they knew.
they keep them because they have exquisite taste
bloomers are the greatest clothing there is for girls
Bloomers are ugly, sports shorts are better because they're loose and leave something to the imagination.
well fitting bloomers that perfectly show off their asses are godtier
older women being forced to wear their old bloomers and getting embarrassed is to go further beyond
Why not watch porn or go to the beach if you just want to look at ass directly? The casual nature of the sports shorts coupled with girls outside exercising is sublime, and even better it isn't strictly limited to teenagers since women in their 20s also wear shorts when jogging.
>older women
only works if they are asian, because all other races get fat over 30 but asian mommies stay thin
When did bloomers die out anyway?
> bringing 3DPD into this
i am ONLY talking about 2D
It is impossible to discuss 2D entirely independently of 3D as 2D is an idealization of 3D. The slut in 3D becomes the flirty gyaru in 2D, the fat weird quiet girl in 3D becomes the large breasted librarian in 2D, the loud annoying girl in 3D becomes the loud annoying genki childhood friend in 2D.
It all flows from one to the other, perfected through the pens of men.
You might as well ask why Japanese schools began adopting uniforms that are more British-style than the old sailor style. Times and styles change.
I don't think the QUALITY is that bad. I mean there is QUALITY here, but there have been plenty of shows that were even worse. At least it doesn't rise to the level of stuff like Marchen Madchen.
> Hachigatsu Cinderalla, not as bad as Marchen Madchen!
that will make it really popular i'm sure
I don't care about the QUALITY, Tsubasa is still a real cutie.
