Fall 2011 Anime thread

dat yuno

There was definitely something unsettling about this episode. It seemed like an average slice-of-life type setting. Boy hiding a girl from his mom and everything. Then you get flashes of Yuno's crazy and it contrasted pretty hard with the cutesy soundtrack. This is definitely one of the reasons I prefer anime to manga. I don't get the same feeling while reading as I do while watching. I've read the manga and I never really got Yuno's crazy (in the beginning anyway). Watching this episode creeped me the fuck out though.

Loved this weeks Mirai Nikki. I don't know if it was my mood or what, but I don't think I have ever laughed this hard at something before. The little kid with the "oops I tripped" scene literally had me in tears XD

Producer Yamamoto held a seminar where he confirmed everything that was speculated up to this point. Noitamina has moved away from targeting general audiences to targeting "core" fans, meaning otaku.

The cause for this switch was mainly two-fold. First of, there hasn't been many popular manga or novels recently that would attract general audiences (the oversaturation of the light novel market is mentioned as well). The solution they saw was to make anime originals

The second problem was that the time slot had moved to 12:45 in the morning, meaning they had even more problems capturing casual viewers.

Other relevant info mentioned:
- They're still in negotiation process for titles in 2013.
- Noitamina is looking toward game and toy makers for future production investments.
- They want to maintain the one hour (two-episode) TV block format because they want to do more 2-cour shows.

No real surprises here.

@Noitamina

No surprise here, but reading this still pised me off. It pretty much is the same as telling me that anime industry has given up on making anything good.

It's disappointing, but I wondering if I can remain hopeful that it won't be a tsundere loli fest.

Don't worry, I don't think there are too many tsundere loli in Gundam and Yu-Gi-Ho clones.
