Rock legend Gene Simmons has no problem with otaku marrying their 2D anime crushes Anonymous 2022-05-10 (Tue) 08:16:22 No.14795 [Reply]

"It doesn’t matter if you understand this relationship. It only matters if this Otaku man is happy. Otaku is a person who is a manga and tech fan. Good luck to him." - Gene Simmons

That's not why he's famous though, young one. That's irrelevant though, I still agree with your first post. Just don't die on this hill before you google who Gene Simmons actually is.

I read about this hologram thing (imagine using this for practicing another language!) and immediately noped out when I saw that it required a network connection. There is also a neat thing out developed as a companion for old people which kinda looks like a lamp, but again it needs a network connection. They are ALL like that.

It's not just that things like these turn into bricks when the company goes under or decides to do something else, but like Alexa it constantly sends information from the sounds inside your house to an outside party. This shit is so common it is infuriating. I wouldn't mind closed source for an assistant/toy if it made a robust impression and worked offline.

3d anime Anonymous 2021-08-08 (Sun) 04:22:07 No.9414 [Reply]

Is there an explanation as to why so many 3d animes or animes with CGI look noticeably fucking awful? I cant possibly fathom as to how any individual can fuck up so badly on aesthetics when it comes to anime as westerners already can make plenty of 3d cartoons that look just fine with good art styles, hell even for individual artists making good looking CGI isnt hard as your essentially getting 3d squares and triangles with images stretched on them to move around a screen for several minutes and artists like Ian Hubert have proven that large budgets for good looking graphics is far from difficult or expensive, so what gives?

Not in this day and age, especially since outsourcing to third parties is cheaper than paying your own people, and this is all assuming they're trying to make good 3D CGI

I watched a video that touches on this a couple of weeks ago that made some good points I'll try to remember. Mostly it's about composition, and that a lot of stylistic things in anime are to keep it easy to animate that isn't so much of a problem in CGI. Anime pioneered a lot of tricks that animates what are essentially still images, like a character will be moved left and the background moves right to give it a sense of movement, but in CGI you've already modelled it all so there's no drawing or layers to move around, the hard work is already done and you have a fully modelled world to play around with, so there's no trick required.

Ironically the creator then goes on to make similar unorthodox adjustments to composition in his original work (he also remakes some 2D scenes as practice and so the composition doesn't change in those) that I don't think is as good, like for example with his subway scene a more traditional composition would be the train viewed from its side going past, I think there is a scene in Patlabor 2 that nails this. While trying to find a gif of it I stumbled on another gif I will follow up this post with.

This is also another trick you don't see as much nowadays and was also done in Patlabor, but making windows brightly lit with some blur is kino and cheaper
Also I went and spent ten minutes fucking around trying to turn the scene into a gif and it put a watermark on it so now I'm mad

I didn't mind it but it's very inorganic and kinda goes against what I imagine to be anime

It's a portrayal of woman who acts like she hates you but loves you immensely. So it's basically a fantasy. It maybe cause of the rate of sexual agressions in japan, and turning woman responses of rejection and disgust into love.

Remember when this guy made good movies and TV? What the fuck happened to his brain?

I love Angel's Egg, The Sky Crawlers, Patlabor 2 and GitS 1&2, and hell, I even like the early cinema trilogy for all its flaws but Vladlove and Assault Girls were almost unwatchable.
