Anime/Manga uguu?

They are 40 page chapters if I remember correctly, personally don't think that is too unreasonable.

Easily more material covered than the widely accepted ''3 episode rule''.

I'm torn between feigning outrage and just simply posting "double standard lol".

Yeah, I would never think 7 chapters is long enough to judge a series, especially a long one. Other an saying it didn't hook you. Which is fair enough to say, I think.

The quality of this subreddit has increased dramatically since the new hires. I am utterly satisfied.

7 sucky chapters is a lot.

7 sucky chapters is a lot.

Believe it or not, I dropped it at the 1st chapter a few years ago, when chapter 40ish was the latest chapter. Tons of convincing by my sister later, and here I am now talking about it.

That's actually quite a bit more pages per chapter than I was expecting it to have. 10 chapters/200 pages might not be a bad metric that's equivalent to the 3 episode rule, in terms of personal time consumed, even if it is 3 times as long (or longer) in terms of real-time when waiting on a currently publishing series.

Of course, this metric should probably not be applied to series longer than 120 chapters.

More streaming parties, plskthx.

Pandora Hearts sounds like an exception if it's got 40 pages per chapter, however. That's a lot of pages.

I'm sure there will be a sudden, huge, blast of quality in a few volumes.

Like in Gintama where the first 20 episodes are shit but the rest is the best thing in the world. lol

 

[Dracowyn]

Utena is my favourite anime.

Keep going.

Watching anime for LE EPIC MIND****S sounds wrong though, don't do that.

Ah don't worry. It's not why I started to watch this in the first place. It's because it's one of the faves of one of my best friends. But others were saying it was just really weird so I was wondering. Since it's pretty normal for an anime so far.

(Yeah, late reply, blame timezones and placement for that)

This explains why I dropped Gintama despite everyone treating it like the greatest thing ever. 8D;

 

[Chikara]

Gintama is the best, holy shit. Gintoki is my spirit animal. I mean look:

I'm looking forward to the new season this spring, agh.

I liked Gintama more in the past before the MUH SERIOUS arcs took over.

Not that those are bad, I just preferred the silly comedy with the odd arc thrown in format.

Warming up to characters and Sorachi's comedy style is what I would actually put that lag some people feel down to, not it suddenly improving.

 

[Taemin]

Ginatama has always looked intriguing. Now it's just so long, that I stare at the episode list and go

"....maybe later".

 

[Chikara]

I like the muh serious arcs, though. The humor hasn't completely disappeared ;(

The manga's better anyway, I find myself laughing at the art style no matter the arc aha. Sorachi has poisoned my brain.

 

[Weeaboo Name]

The manga's better anyway

Other way round for me. Comedy is all about timing and the anime does that so much better. Fantastic OST and voice cast are a bonus too.

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

Rules are rules. Feel free to post lewds of hot anime guys, tho.

BUHAHAHA, I posted a loli.

You guys all liking Pandora Hearts is some sort of meme, right?

7 chapters? I didn't even expect you to start it...

 

[Weeaboo Name]

I'd give any series that seems to have thread-wide popularity a shot.

Yeah see, I'm big on dry humor. I don't need timing or anything to find something funny, all I need is conversation -w-

 

[Weeaboo Name]

Yeah, I can appreciate some deadpan too but that isn't what Gintama is about at all.

STOP ENJOYING THINGS IN DIFFERENT WAYS TO ME.

Really? Cause pretty much every time Gin opened his mouth, it's 100% dry humor, aha.

I CANT HELP IT.

 

[Weeaboo Name]

Gin can get pretty ridiculous too.

For me though it is all about the interactions between Gin and the support, and I enjoy that so much more in anime form. Of course I like the manga, it's a good manga, but the anime jumps multiple points.
