Well lads, we've had some good laughs together. However, I think it's finally time we stopped pretending Berserk 1997 was good.

"But PantsMan," you might say:
"It's a classic!"
"The art's great!"
"9/10 on MAL!"
"It's old!"
"Fuck you."
"MANime!"
"I put my grasses on!"

Ever wonder why people only talk about the Eclipse, the Cobraman scene or Griffith's Ken doll penis? Because the rest looks like ass.

Yeah, no shit the art's good, it's Miura's style. The animation itself however consists of zooming in and sliding across still frames. Might as well open the official colored manga and shake your computer screen to get the same effect. Except even that would still be better than the anime, since at least it doesn't butcher the story and remove fan-favorite characters like Puck and Donovan. Absolute garbage.

You don't like Berserk 1997, you just like the Golden Age arc and prefer this particular series over the sequels. Which fair enough, I don't think anybody asked for feature-length versions of that PS2 game where Guts is fighting demonic snowmen. Still doesn't make Berserk 97 good.

And while we're on the topic, let's talk about the OP. Imagine having Susumu Hirasawa on call and instead getting the Japanese equivalent of the guys you hire to sing Cha-Cha Slide at weddings. I refuse to believe it wasn't i r o n i c a l l y popular just because of the Engrish, then retards just mistook it being a meme for it being actually good.


Also, hair > tits >= ass > shit > those chicken thighs western artists put on every character

Hey, it's me, the guy with the grasses profile pic.

This may come as a surprise to some, but I've never actually watched either of the Berserk anime adaptations. When I first got into Berserk as a wee lad, the general consensus I observed was that "Berserk is best in manga form and it always will be." And although I haven't watched even a single episode of the 1997 adaptation, I can agree that yeah, it does look like shit. Compare animation like that to something like Cowboy Beboop (1998), and Basaaku's shortcomings can't be attributed to "oh but 90's production value/quality" or anything of the sort.

As for the 2016 adaptation, I don't think I need to explain why I never subjected myself to that.

Spoiler

I've heard some good things about the movies. But again, I can't accurately rate something I haven't watched.

Anyways, what I really want to address here is your stance on the opening song. Attempting to make a layman understand just how monumental Tell Me Why is would be akin to effectively teaching default pfp users why their inability to take the thirty fucking seconds required to change the primary indicator of individuality on this site has irrevocably crippled their reception from other users.

The first time I listened to Tell Me Why, nothing memorable stood out about it besides the memeable Engrish phrases. It wasn't until I played it on loop for hours in the background of my gaming sessions that I finally realized Tell Me Why is to the 20^th 21^st century what Symphony No. 9 is to the 19^th. No amount of effort or human creativity will ever spawn a work that surpasses Tell Me Why, and that's the way it should be.

Also, big tits > relatively small areola circumference > ass => hair > toned torso

Shoujo is the most brain dead genre, especially if it's Korean.

> 819 titles, ignore the 51 series without a rating
> only 8 series rated less than 7. No series rated less than 6.

 

[pandascepter]

@Halo
I'm gonna pretend i didn't see that.

 

[blackyawgdom]

Can't argue with the numbers...

 

[bigtiddyoneesan]

Shoujo is the most brain dead genre, especially if it's Korean.

Villainess mangos even more so. Sorry in advance to any hurt villainess fans. Go watch some shaky fancams of K-pop idols to cheer yourselves up.

 

[Halo]

Villainess mangos even more so.

> Villainess (any origin)
> 172 titles
> only 3 titles rated <7
> more than half rated >8

People love to shit on isekai, but at least isekai fans are self-aware about their shit taste.

 

[Richman]

You know, the more I think about it, the more "shitpost here" looks like the true General thread to discuss everything.

 

[bigtiddyoneesan]

> only 3 titles rated <7
> more than half rated >8

This is an actual issue, as it makes the worthwhile villainess manga hard to distinguish from the shallow and methodical ones.

_{Oh wait, they're all shallow and methodical.}

 

[Halo]

The unironically best villainess is this balding salaryman:

 

[Richman]

Would youjo senki count as a villaines?
>Female protagonist (previous body destroyed, soul reincarnated into a new, different body)
>Protagonist is seen as "evil"
>Magicks
The only thing missing is a romance partner or a male character. (But everyone knows that it's _visha never going to happen)

 

[Halo]

Would youjo senki count as a villaines?

Thank God, no.

Originating from the term Villainous Noble Lady, the Villainess does nothing but cause trouble, or sometimes even tries to kill, the Heroine. At least, that would be the case if the story followed its original course, but due to time leaps, reincarnations, transmigrations, or other circumstances, in almost all cases the villainess is no longer the same person she was meant to be. This in turn causes changes to the original story, whether they try to follow the original course of events, or break them completely.

Besides, Tanya is a good girl.

@Halo I would like to add to that as the manga also being an example of an Author self-insert done right.
