Legend of Galactic Heroes: My conquest is the sea of stars Anonymous 11/21/2021 (Sun) 06:49:28 No. 653 [Reply] [Last]
First off God damn that's a long subtitle, as ridiculously long a title to have to begin with they managed to top even that. Seriously what a fucking mouthful. So this anime is shilled a lot, and yesterday I finally was convinced to try it out. I began with the prequel movie "My conquest is the sea of stars", and I have serious issues with the last ten minutes, and nowhere else more appropriate to air them. There's a giant fleet engagement with about a million vessels taking part, as the democratic "good guys" are getting creamed they come up with a move to win. Three guys take a ship and kick everyone else off (if these ships don't need gunners to fire the guns, engineers to oversee the powerplant, marines for boarding actions, or even crewman to man radar. Then why the hell are these ships manned at all?) Then fly up to the enemy commander, come along side and sit there. The entire warzone goes quiet. Everyone to afraid to fire a single shot, EVEN MILLIONS OF KILOMETRES AWAY, for fear the commanders vessel might be struck. The "good guys" (who were getting crushed) use this confusion to sail away in peace, leaving this single vessel with three crewman alone behind enemy lines. Then that ship leaves too. That was the summary and already I bet many can see the obvious issues with this plot. 1. Coming alongside another vessel does indeed mean you probably won't be targeted by canon fire, sure, BUT that simply means you are commiting a boarding action. Pistols and sabers time. So why doesnt the "imperialistic" "badguy" commander sound repel boarders and? Or when it's clear he isn't being boarded, BOARD THE OTHER SHIP. 2. why the fuck would you let the enemy go? 3. Why would a ship fighting off boarders (which has been a common occurence for so long as naval vessels have existed I.E. all of western history) silence not just his own side, but the other side as well? 4. In a battlespace billions of kilometres wide why would anyone else give a shit? 5. Why let the enemy suicide vessel go? Why would noone take a potshot after it left the side of the commanders ship? 6. Is the entire series this monumentally retarded? Did the author even look into naval tactics from any century? 7. Will it get better? I mean what kinda ship doesn't have marines on board? How is there no procedure for dealing with a close in enemy? Traditionally you board it, kill the crew, and then cut away boarding ropes, wait til you are out of range of it exploding, and then sink the bastard. Or you take control of the enemy vessel, crew it, and keep fighting now with another ship in your flotilla.

the series indeed goes off the deep end midway thorugh season 2 and starts wanking off democracy instead of criticing both as it had done so up to that point. it also has to show autocracy as horrible through just not writing any good ideas for reinhard, which is plain lazy. democrats witholding information on terrajews is also what caused the season 4 shit show to ensue and what led to the death of that bloke in season 3. the series high notes were that all the main cast were male leads for first season and that the girls that were introduced were all tomboys. the ship combat and the political manueavring is top notch too. the gore is on point as well, minus the few parts where the focus on it to show the horrors of war even though they've been showing worse gore as if it was nothing up to that point. lets not forget the openning and ending songs all being composed by the director and song by the same person each time so the mood, tone and words are as appropriate as it can get. I never saw reinhard as someone who wants absolute autocracy to be his legacy. just that he wanted to make the world a fairer place so people like his sister have a lower chance of tragedy. yang always said that autocrats will degrade in standards and the system goes to shit, and democracy is there so people can "vote" force that shit out of the system when it happens, and full on democracy only happens when no one can be trusted anymore and is a emergency answer that cant last forever as it will buckle under its own weight. he could have gone to reinhard, a so called good autocrat, and tried making a system together that is on the sweet spot between autocracy and democracy, but noooo the author had to wank one side and shit on the other after season 2. honestly fuck that shit civilization. Im glad they all died. yes there I said it.
>>65356 Most of the time the Alliance evolves into a nearly complete overreliance on Yang that is kinda an oxymoron for a "distributed" system of power.
>>65430 Great Man theory is possibly what Platonic aristocracy entails. Only chance few individuals who are both talented genetically and grow in ideal societal conditions improve conditions, the government doesn't matter at all for improving people's lives whether tyranny or democracy. At some point in the narrator pointed out the absurdity of how the dictatorship produced a more democratic outcome in their country

So this seems fun, even if it reminds me a lot of a more serious I Parry Everything, with the super competent warrior convinced he's a nobody. I guess I mostly like it for the older MC. And this chick's abs.

>>66736 > the blade getting thinner near the guard makes zero sense, Probably they added it for aesthetic but in real life some long swords did have a thinner ricasso if the blade was too wide to be comfortable to handle. The ricasso of lot of Zweihänder was long enough to be used as a second grip.
>living with a not blood related oldman SLUT
>>66740 Yes, for a zweihänder, but his is a normal one-handed sword not meant for halfswording. The amount of thinning is also quite different.

How do people here watch SoL? If you're really NEETs with nothing to do surely your brain is hoping for some mental stimulation instead? I really prefer series with something more to it for that exact reason.

Who are your favorite newer animators? Anonymous 05/06/2025 (Tue) 18:33:43 Id: 0163ae No. 65652 [Reply]
I'm really like Ryo Imamura and Ishitani Megumi lately. Ryo Imamura did character designs for Onimai and posts a lot of pretty sexy animations, including ones for Seitokai ni wa Ana. Ishitani Megumi is pretty well-known now since her One Piece episodes, and she directed the Witch Watch opening. Various animators are credited for scenes in the opening but I'm pretty sure her mark is all over it.

>>65653 You're right about seiyuu getting a bit unseiyuu-y but animation is mostly carried by rotoscoping nowadays I think which helps make low quality anime into mid quality anime but can't really make up for great animators.
This Gintama fight had better scenes but this is all I could find on sakugabooru of it. >>65697 Thanks for sharing. I'm surprised you picked that last video because there's not much animation but I supposed you wanted to share his composition skills and so on. All your videos were less sakuga-spammy and more about the mood and character expressions I guess. Good taste.
>>66004 You're not totally wrong but seiyuu are definitely getting worse at acting
