Title: Kizumonogatari
Post by: Bamyasi on February 26, 2016 04:06 AM
An anime movie about our very own Kizunami.

I dunno how many Monogatari fans there are here but I think Stu's right, we should have more threads dedicated to animated movies, even if the three amigos would rather us not talk about anime.

Is anyone seeing it? Premieres tomorrow in a theater maybe near you. (http://kizumonogatari-usa.com/theater.html)

I've just now returned from this experience.

Imagine a room full of sweaty nerds eating overpriced desserts because this was one of those weird restaurant theaters and watching beautiful Mongolian woodblock print slide shows animated by pedophiles of the Far East. Indeed.

Truly one of the most decadent outings of my life. I almost had my hostess bring me a glass of wine but I settled for water, and even that cost $0.54. When she brought the bill I gave her a dollar and said "Keep the change," and she replied "That's the biggest tip I've gotten all night," and claimed she wasn't joking, which made me cry. I would've gotten her number but didn't because I was seeing Kizumonogatari.

Which was great by the way. I'd say it's strictly for fans, even though the people I went with aren't as big fanboy/girls as I am but still really enjoyed it. It also had some of the most gorgeous sakuga I've seen in my life. Definitely check out the BR rip whenever that comes out.

I got a nice little cardstock poster too so I'd say the whole misadventure was worth $15 even though the movie was only an hour long, as it's the first in a trilogy of Shaft and Aniplex taking my money.

true or not, from my experience of seeing limited screenings of anime films the fans are notoriously loud, inconsiderate and rude. i always feel bad for the staff that have to deal with them and cleanup after them. the last dbz film it was especially bad
Title: Re: Kizumonogatari
Post by: Bamyasi on March 3, 2016 03:49 AM
This was my first limited anime screening outside an arthouse or cineplex and I was still somewhat shocked at the etiquette.

I even pitched two extra dollars on the table just because it seemed like our party was one of the few tipping (please pat me).

this is why i like those theaters with the reclining chairs , everyone's far apart and you don't have to deal with people's nonsense

also assigned seating, which i'm confused isn't a mainstream thing in the states yet

Title: Re: Kizumonogatari

Have you even seen any of the show or do you just dislike it reflexively.

It's better than Tasogare Otome x Amnesia I'll say that much (and I mean the manga not the terrible anime).
Title: Re: Kizumonogatari
Post by: rtil on October 26, 2016 09:49 AM
i'm 12 episodes in to bake and i don't know how i feel about it

the dichotomy of it all is a lot to take in. it deals with a lot of relatable feelings, emotions and ideas about relationships - but the world it takes place in is so strangely sterile and alien, with a dash of supernatural themes, fanservice and action. i think it's at its best when senjougahara is involved. i know there's like 15 other monogatari series and movies but i'll probably take a little break after bake. it's very pretty but again very heavy especially on the dialogue. i'd rather pace myself than get burnt out
Title: Re: Kizumonogatari
Post by: Bamyasi on October 27, 2016 12:56 AM
Oh glad you're giving it another shot. I'd gotten the impression you disliked this franchise in the past.

I think you're right the environments are quite sterile, but I'd also argue the characters fill them well by being larger than life (that or NishiOishiN is no good at group dialogue but I prefer the former). You may disagree, but the insert shots of city infrastructure I find much nicer to look at than 3D-rendered crowds. They pretty af.

Also yes Senjougahara is easily my favorite character in Bake. Best father-chaperoned date scene of all time.

Definitely not a series to rush through if you ask me. Even if you're not in love enough with the style to enjoy Nisemonogatari (generally considered the worst cour but I like it), it's worth suffering through to get to Second Season, which imo is one of the best animated productions OAT.

Hope you enjoy the last few episodes they're among the best.

I have crossed the barren valleys seinen
I have traversed the toxic wastelands of shounen
I have flaneured through the towns of ecchi
I have haversacked through the homes of harem
I have flown through the clouds of romcoms
I have sidled my way through the tundras of action adventure;
and nothing has come as close to making my heart leap out of my body as tasogare

in short; how dare u

this is my first time ever actually watching it

i was turned off by it initially because the most popular scene ever posted from the whole franchise is the toothbrush scene which i find revolting, personally. so i got the wrong impression of it
Title: Re: Kizumonogatari
Post by: Bamyasi on October 27, 2016 10:13 AM
Ah yeah that'd be Nise. Personally I find the scene funny and relatively harmless in context but it's still controversial. Hopefully it doesn't ruin the show for you.

Well I assume you're going to read Sankarea next.

And by next I mean after watching Monogatari.

How did you get that far into Sankarea without reading Tasogare you're weird.

Too bad Yuuko will never get a fig this good:

He's not. It's a very heat of the moment scene and played entirely for laughs/satire.

Still expecting the most amazing production since Redline if the first two parts' trajectory continues.

You really ain't gotta be trust me. In fact, if you've only seen Bakemonogatari you'd be viewing the animations in the order the original novels were released. This is a prequel to everything else.

Here's a DL for the first (https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=900025) and second (http://animetorrents.me/torrent-details.php?torid=24162) parts if you're interdasted.

Post by: Bamyasi on April 12, 2017 04:50 AM
Part 3 was overall a disappointment, and given this studio's track record with three part cashgrabs, it's probably one I should have expected. While there was nothing in it quite as rage-inducing or trolltastic as Madoka Rebellion, the art simply wasn't up to snuff with the preceding two parts. Not only that, but the first 20 or so minutes were wasted delivering a truncated backstory anyone who's seen Onimonogatari already knew, and had seen done better, so it felt like Shaft making concessions to casual fans, not only there, but also in so many unnecessary flashbacks to the first two films that were no doubt included to pad out the length.

I would've forgiven this trespass had the art been as amazing as in the first two films, but around half the shots seemed to have suffered from budget cuts or outsourcing, no doubt due to that boring stupid shitty shogi show that they were producing around the same time that I hate. I wish they'd've just scrapped that series and focused on making Part 3 the best in the trilogy, and the fact that they didn't feels like a bit of a betrayal to the people who made them the money to produce stupid boring depressive shogi shows in the first place (then again, so did Rebellion). It's a gentle reminder that these companies primarily exist to make profits, even ones dealing in high designs like Shaft does.

That said, the writing and storytelling in the second half made for a satisfying conclusion, if only the art could have done them as much justice as the voice acting and Dada-influenced direction did. I'd give this one a hard 6/10 for these reasons, with the first two landing 7 and 8/10 respectively. Kinda made me wish the money for the last hour and the dumb shogi show could've been spent cutting all three parts down to a 2.5 hour feature with tighter editing and consistent animation. I would've paid the combined ticket price of 45 fucking dollars to see that alone (after having spent 30 fucking dollars to see the first two parts individually).

Still liked it, but it could've been fucking amazing. Parts 1 and 2 are things I think even casual fans of animation and design in general could appreciate. Part 3 didn't have to impress anyone as much because Shaft, Aniplex, and my local arthouse theater already have our money. Oh well. Did I mention part 2 is a masterpiece?

Take ice scones and pack it in the movie truck and then beep beep beep backwards onto the art house theatre. Open the back up and sell the ice/sno cones. Hand out pamphlets to the buyers to tell them, no, the art house does not need pocket change.
