Tatsujin Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Ummm... ok. Lets just ignore all old things and move on to new stuff, ignoring the source of where the entire English language began (old literature). Enjoy your Harry Potter! Back to "Plot Convenience: The Anime" the OST is awesome. The writing is just fun, nothing amazing, but not like its horrible. You're taking this too extreme. But that's okay. Everyone's got their quirks. The story isn't as impressive. There are some cheesy terrible parts. But the music is pretty good and the ending is good. It's all going to come down to S2. Quote
Jibril Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 They got shot in the head.. how do you expect them to survive exactly? Space vampires? It was a nice series. Fantastic OST that never failed to amuse me as well as an interesting execution but the ending really felt out of line. It felt like the characters that existed up until then had completely changed, especially Slain, what Slain did was just retarded to say the least given how his character had been up until that point. Even Gen Urobochi himself said this wasn't the ending he wanted for the series. But well the rest of the series was nice and depending on how the second season goes this ending might actually tie together well, we'll see. As long as the princess doesn't come back to life I'm fine with it even if Inaho is indeed resurrected by space vampires. I gave it a 9/10 because I really had fun watching it, just made me cringe a little at the end. I'd also be happy if the series ended like this though *roll credits* Quote
Stray Cat Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Just going to avoid reading all of this and add it to my watch list. Quote
OriginalRen Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Maybe Inaho becomes a space vampire and together with Slaine they make their own independent country with their own students and gather as many as mechas with Aldnoah and fight against the Vers empire while secretly the United Earth government backstabs them which revealed where both the Vers and Earth are collaborating all along and was manipulated by the Vers ancestors who got revived when the Vers' king activates the Aldnoah. I had to double take on that but.... WHAT??? The only thing I can ever relate to the book honestly is the love triangle between Slaine, Seylum and Inaho where as Inaho died with the same case as Gatsby. But Slaine isn't the Antagonist like Tom is and both of Slaine and Seylum are really close.... and Daisy doesn't die like how Seylum did.... Quote
Cyrillej1 Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 The ending was a big... WT#@! moment for me... I'm not sure how I feel about the 2nd season coming out. I probably will try watching it anyways. I think that was one of the most messed up death scenes I ever seen Quote
Mephisto Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Wait what? How long has it been since you read the great gatsby? The main girl is Daisy, not Myrtle. Gatsby is killed by a man out of anger, not jealousy. For revenge. Myrtle is killed by ACCIDENT. The main girl (Seylum) is killed by a man who holds a grudge against her family from something in the past, whose entire objective was to kill her. Slaine then kills the male protagonist because they are rivals, not for revenge. Quote
Jibril Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 For Slaine killing Inaho because out of rivalry or jealousy is debatable. So if the latter is true, then it's exactly the same as what OriginalRen said. Quote
Mephisto Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 The guy who killed Gatsby didn't kill Gatsby out of jealousy though, I don't even know if that character is capable of feeling jealousy. An almost connection is Tom has an illicit affair with guy's wife -> the noble dude kills seylum Gatsby accidentally kills guy's wife -> Inaho has a connection with seylum Guy kills Gatsby -> Slaine kills Inaho Pretty far fetched connection in my opinion.

Mephisto Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 I made a mistake too, Gatsby doesn't kill Myrtle, Daisy kills Myrtle because she wanted to drive although Gatsby was in the car. I still don't like the jealousy point, but I suppose it can be argued with all the emotions flying around. It's worth noting that the guy kills himself after he kills Gatsby though, while there is no indication Slaine did so. Quote
Tatsujin Posted October 6, 2014 Author Posted October 6, 2014 Ah man those BD disks look dull but the art box looks cool. I wonder what's inside those BD boxes, besides the disks. Quote
Down Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Kotaku tries to explain us why A/Z is a deconstruction of Gundam. I'm still laughing about it. Once you realize that 80% of the elements pointed out ARE present in a lot of Gundam, especially the UC ones, all that is left is the fact that Inaho doesn't pilot a powerful prototype but a crappy robot. Which might be a deconstruction of something for all I care but that doesn't make it less dumb that one teenager dude is somehow more skilled than the entirety of both the Earth and Mars armies. I would also advise reading this dude's masterpiece on SAO for more laughs. I hope those guys are better at writing about video games because they sure don't know shit about anime Quote

phersu Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Slaine's awesome. -Sits back with popcorn.- Quote
Tatsujin Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 lol I just read the Gundam and SAO articles. Ah that was stupid funny. Someone's pretty bad as it is. We need some terribads in our community. Quote
Niko Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Slaine's awesome. -Sits back with popcorn.- I actually did like Slaine. Some people seem to dislike him though, lol. Anyways: I liked Aldnoah. Can't wait for season two. Quote
