Let's have a nice thread.
Nothing complicated but it has a dry sense of humor. It's clearly aimed at an older audience.

zetsubou sensei is very pretentious in its presentation, and it understands this, which is what makes it tolerable.

Shaft is pretty impressive in being able to make their budget saving techniques look artsy as fuck.

>he didn't see the ending
Here's your problem

>ending
Thinking back to that: Has anyone gone through all shots of the entire class and made sure there was always at least one pupil missing?

Pic related was best episode on this

Not really everything, but i did try to take notice in 1 of the reread
>most glaring is the absence of Chiri (the de-facto punchline), and for those chapters the punchline is Kafuka tricked sensei to do sth weird (and arrested) instead
>Kaede the defacto fanservice girl is replaced by Rin, the Nurse-sensei or Komori instead
>every girls are absent at least once except Maria and the stalkergirl. They are almost always there

No! Absolutely not!

All people in class were organ receivers from Kafuka.
At the same time they were all "failed" suicidees.
Kafuka only appeared as a ghost throughout the series, while the body to do that switched each time.
At times Chiri would be Kafuka. At other times it would be Kaede. And so on. So there always has to be at least one pupil missing in any shot in the series.
In the end Sensei married Kafuka by marrying all the girls, and having children with all of them.

It had its moments, but it also had some absolutely stupid moments.

I feel like this show goes out of its way to initially convince you it's stupid. Then the real plot starts happening and it gets a lot better.

I like how the VN is better in every way

Agreed. The tension parts of the first chapter kind of have the same issues in the VN, but not nearly as bad as the show made them. Great VN though.

Nice stealth rec thread.

that's an example of the opposite
anime that tries to be smart yet is dumb as fuck

Unfortunately not.
Remember, the finale hasn't been animated, yet.
I hope it eventually will be.

Go back to twitter, furry.

It's not like there's much difference considering how static the adaptation actually is

Good joke

I think this show is extremely deep. It's basically a commentary on why certain character trends fall out of fashion. Among being deep in other ways.

that's the series that tries the hardest to appear smart
and it succeeds

GitS SAC literally beats the most acclaimed of cop dramas in the west, animated or not.
Why can't all animu be this good?

I completely agree dude. Literally anything it explores in its setting is done so in a satisfying and complete way.

This practically predicted and understood, memes and the influence internet would have over people and their views.

>in the end, we truly were a Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
memes ruined this scene for me
