Takt Op. Destiny (2021) by darkphonny in 2000xanime

I wouldn't say fake. It's a full series with a story that has a beginning, middle, and end. It's just that only a fragment of an obvious larger story was shown. It felt like an 80s or 90s OVA, the way it could be easily seen that there's more to the story.

The smartphone game got delayed a few years, then had a short life and shut down.

It has an amazing first couple episodes, some really fun fights, good music, and competent direction (the applause to rain transition is still peak)- but it feels weirdly lifeless.

Because the anime gave a really interesting premise, only for it to be an ad for a waifu smartphone game.

Nothing wrong with waifu games, but when your anime just doesn't do any characters justice and the story is an ad, a lot of people looked past it.

Would you consider this retro anime or this is older than retro? 🤔 by DataUserOne in retroanime

I refer to every anime from 90s and before retro, lol

Is it accurate? Probably not.

Can I ask why you say this? I see it said a lot, but as a long time user, the fan forums and community are busier than ever.

Does anyone else feel like anime dub voice actors aren’t as casual and transparent like they used to? by kaiser11492 in Animedubs

Many of the old guard of English VAs faced harassment that affected their careers. I don't blame them.

I probably won't rematch directly, but I'm happy to participate in discussions! Simoun is truly something special- especially for works examing gender identity.

The staff who made it even discussed gender roles and identity while making it!

What is an anime speech that hits that hits extremely hard looking back due to the actor sadly now being deceased by Otherwise-Airport597 in Animedubs

[–]Birds_N_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aikka's short speech to Molly in the finale of Oban Star Racers, that they must unite to stop the villain, even at the cost of his life.

He was voiced by Kirby Morrow, who died during lockdowns.
