Are they working in a small garage or what? Shey Computer students no dey do I.T. for their office?
Make dem do abeg

they're taking on a lot of big name shows...
These shows require top tier animation and MAPPA has a reputation to protect...

Even Ufotable only work on Demon Slayer and Fate...

Wit couldn't cope and dropped several shows...

The best thing is for MAPPA to finish AOT first...
The 100s of Titans they have to draw with crazy ODM gear battles for the final episode...

Oh boy...

The recent 100 cam thing they did in MAPPA studio showed a lot...
Their staff is overworked...

Hayashi has serious eyebags

pu7pl3:
Make mappa Andale abeg... I'll use JJK 2 and hold body for the mean time

MAPPA sef are working on a new anime called Lazarus...
Plus there are rumours they'll been working on One Punch Man S3...

Hell's Paradise isn't as popular as these shows...and it will might suffer tbh...

Even till now they haven't adapted season 2 of Dororo

abduleez1:
How is it nowhere near MAPPA's other shows??
Which shows?

The animation was premium for me asides maybe Vinland Saga and JJK.
Although, the animation might feel a bit weird due to the misty or foggy feel they added to the background when on the island.

with MAPPA, there is a certain level of quality expected...
The animation wasn't as fluid...

It was a regular complaint sef...all over anime Twitter, Reddit and MAL about MAPPA's treatment of Hell's Paradise

The animation was good but not what people expected from a MAPPA adaptation of a dark trio

it's one of the dark trio alongside JJK and Chainsawman yet it wasn't at their level of animation at all...
Even in the Hell's Paradise subreddit, they still talk about it

pu7pl3:
From the first season alone? Apart from Denji and that one eyed girl I didn't see any other character development. Makima and the rest remain a mystery.

But this Hell's Paradise did more for me, everything is just straightforward, idk sha that's just how I feel.

depends on opinion sha...

Wasn't into any of the characters in Hell's Paradise apart from the MC and his executioner until like episode 9

For Chainsawman, I think Aki, Power, Himeno and Denji all got good development...
I enjoyed the character relationships very well...

Even the relationship between Pochita and Denji was built up so well in just 1 episode...

abduleez1:
Peak episode....

I'm still stuck in episode 30.

why?
It's such a peak show...

It's darker than I remembered sef

ErenXSatoru:
Bro what is also surprising is Sound of Freedom is trashing Mission Impossible domestically🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ and the mission impossible movie is actually good, talk about bad timing

it has to be a pride thing, that's why they stuck to the release date

That Sound of Freedom sef...no one expected it

Kaycee7:
Lust!

yeah...
I mix them up...
I was about to come edit...
I Sha knew someone would have corrected me

pu7pl3:
Unpopular opinion: I prefer this Hell's Paradise to Chainsawman

truly unpopular...

Chainsawman has done far more for it's characters imo...

Lust was such a menace sha...wtf

But he dealt with her well

Rewatching Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood and Roy Mustang burning Lust was a very sweet revenge

He kept killing her so many times till she ended up in bones

pu7pl3:
Okay, makes sense.
I really enjoyed it tho that's why I'm anticipating like this.

the one I'm waiting for so bad is Chainsawman...
I really need a chainsawman movie or season 2...

The decision to not push back Mission Impossible feels dûmber everyday

It's been completely overshadowed by two giants...

pu7pl3:
Hells paradise

Please when is the season 2 dropping?

Its best if it doesn't drop till like December or next year...

MAPPA have a lot on their plate...
Hell's Paradise animation is good but nowhere near most other MAPPA shows...

By waiting till December, AOT will be done and they can finally focus on giving Hell's Paradise better animation

Born2Freak:
What is this one saying?

You went to watch Barbie in the cinema and you are complaining about return-on-investment from spending money at the cinemas?

You went to watch a childish film and expected to be satisfied as an adult?

People like me watch only big budget or strong plot movies att the cinema. That way, you will enjoy at least 65 to 70 percent of the movies you pay to watch at the cinemas.

For instance, these are the movies I have enjoyed this year at the cinemas

-John Wick 4
-Across the spiderverse
-Fast and furious X
-Guardians of the Galaxy 3
-Creed 3
-Mario

That is a movie a month this year. And I am yet to see Mission Impossible and Oppenheimer. I also enjoyed the Transformers movie this year.

Bro, make movie choices wisely

you spoilt your point by mentioning Transformers

Also, when you've seen many of these movies like Transformers and Fast X...

You'll get to a stage where these movies feel very generic to you...they bring nothing new to the table...

But for me personally, I've seen some good movies and some generic tiring movies this year...so the year hasn't been that bad for me

[quote author=oyaskii post=124587618][/quote]if you need list of anime to get you back on track, we are here for you...

Start with Hunter X Hunter 2011 since you loved Naruto...
Or you can watch Monster... different but also a masterpiece

oyaskii:
Is it me or has the ROI of going to the cinema to see a flick has diminished and at an all time low?. I swear, I have taken more L's than actual W alone 😭. I'm this close to just giving up on the whole thing and keep sailing full time like my fellow brothers in arms. Or maybe i am expecting too much? because movies on the big screen used to hit like crack and some were so good that will even warrant a 2nd trip. But now,it seems like these studios actually do not care about making proper flicks, as evident on the current row between them and the actors and writers whilst sitting on billions of dollars of capital. It makes no sense. They will rather employ agendist airheads that are so woke that they are battling more than 10 agendas pandering to nonsensical artsy BS that have no place in proper movies. That's why they are losing money at the BO and i fear that this nonsense will continue for the foreseeable future.

Maann...I have only 3 true guilty pleasures i truly indulge in with reckless abandon. Music, Movies and football... Music is already failing, the Saudi money bag seems like it will ruin football in the coming years, so I don't even know where to turn to if movies fail as well 😭😭

it's late July and I haven't seen a single movie yet in the Cinema in 2023...
I might hold this record to the end of the year at this rate...


Only movies I've felt really compelled to see in a cinema this year are Avatar 2 and Oppenheimer...
So far I haven't for both

ErenXSatoru:
😂 this was when I lost the account😂😂

you still pretended to be someone else...
Even yabbed your other account...


And na me chop accusations as a result


@ Metrolane @ PurpLChi
when am I getting the apology

Make it as passionate as the accusations you levelled against me

oyaskii:
Barbie (2023)


"A movie about a doll, that almost became dull itself".

As a non ardent follower of the "Barbie" lore before now, this piqued my interest solely because of who was making it.

[The first half of the movie was a good satire tone, set in Barbie-land with Barbie rules and Barbie-triarchy in full force, and it was good, with eye popping colours and pink props to match. Then the 2nd half just cascaded into an unnecessary gender commentary that would have seemed fresh some 3 years ago that will actually make cis men want to turn away from it.

I have always respected Greta Gerwig's craft, but i have questioned her creative choice of this from the get go. In her short filmography, she has been able to make "feminist rebellion" movies that are heavily masked and told in the most creative way possible that will make even the most hardened "far right man", stand in the picket line for women's rights. But this was screaming "topple the patriarchy" with every intent.

It's not a bad movie but it's not as good as the hype suggests currently. Probably, people who are fans of the lore will appreciate it better but in my honest opinion, depending on your FOMO meter, you can actually wait this out till it sails.

6/10.

@bolded
So the rumours I heard were true...

Baddestguyp:
I don't like what I'm hearing about Barbie movie at all

Everyone says it's started well then dissolved into wokeness... something well hidden from the trailer...
They marketed it as a simple fun movie...made sure to hide all forms of wokeness in the trailers

Apparently it starts out in Barbieland where women rule and men are subservient.
Then Ken travels to the real world and the real world is portrayed with major patriarchy issues. Men walking on the street slapping women's bûtts and all.

Ken brings this patriarchy to Barbieland and revolt and take over Barbieland with other men. The women have to fight back and regain control.

Now here is where it gets worse...

Barbie apparently refuses equal rights with men in Barbieland...
She says that the men in Barbieland will only be given equal rights when the women in the real world have equal rights


Omo...
How did they hide these all from the trailers?
They said the word "Patriarchy" is mentioned so many times in the movie...wtf

And some people on this thread almost killed me yesterday for saying I heard such rumours

ErenXSatoru:
😂😂😂 wetinberris
I'm actually illusioneffect if you want to know😒

Wait...
Something doesn't make sense...

First, I don't think illusioneffect watches anime

Wtf is going on in this thread?

MetroLane:
No wahala sha, but you sef reason am

Eren Satoru created new account, immediately his favorite nairalander became baddestguyp that has Eren Jp alternate account. Don't tell me you're not his favorite

I agree say no be you, but I no wan see you quote yourself with that moniker again I dey warn you gently

believe whatever you want.
I will quote whoever I want...

It's obvious you've already decided what to believe and won't listen to anything else...
I don't gain anything by pretending to be someone else

PurpLChi:
Agba expecter
😂😂

as for you...

I won't reply you on this allegation anymore...

It's obvious you know it's false...but you're doing this purposely for whatever agenda you want...whether it's for trolling or whatever...

MetroLane:
My Broda you dey lie No be the same post I check

Show me where he said he has seen Oppenheimer. If both of you haven't seen the movie, you know what that means

It's okay to deny this moniker. Some fathers have a prodigal child that if given the opportunity they'll deny the child.

In your case na Prodigal Moniker you get, it's understandable.

the only reason I'll indulge you further is because I made a mistake. I just checked his posts, he said he'll see Oppenheimer on Sunday but has seen Barbie already...


1. It's impossible for me to see Barbie before Oppenheimer...there's no way I'll see it before a Nolan movie

2. His GOTG review is contradictory to mine

3. I always recommend animepahe to everyone here for anime...I have no use for Crunchyroll...99% of my anime are from pahe

And I have an entire 1 terrabyte hard drive with mostly anime...I have never watched a single anime on Crunchyroll in my life

Two completely different takes on the concept of Freedom

I shouldn't waste my time arguing on this pointless allegations...
But if you can't see the contradiction on this post...well...

PurpLChi:
Moniker- Eren cos you'll live and die on the AOT hill. You also like Jujutsu Kaisen so why not merge.
You like watching The drinker and talking about what's woke and what's not woke. Etc
I didn't have to open the profile to even figure this out.

And I'll use a moniker that has these name similarities to pretend?

I checked his posts...he's seen Oppenheimer, I haven't
He's seen Transformers, I dumped it after 15 minutes...

His only topic is on a super eagles player I didn't even know exists

Anyway, I'm done... believe what you want...
I'm not expecting much thinking from you

MetroLane:
1.What are the chances of Eren jp and Eren Satoru monikers belonging to different people? And both monikers found their way to the same thread

2. His post contradicts yours So?
Shebi one egbon used his alternate female moniker to woo himself

and if I wanted to pretend to be someone else...why TF would i use such an obviously similar moniker...?

Eren is quite a popular anime name if you don't know...it's a character from AOT with millions of fans worldwide...


I don't know who used a female moniker that you're talking about...but it has nothing to do with me

I only switch accounts when 1 gets banned...and I don't hide it when I do

MetroLane:
On his Behalf.

believe what you want to

I just checked his posts...maybe if you did same, you would see how contradictory to mine it is

PurpLChi:
You think I don't know it's you Baddestguyp😒

I have 3 accounts on Nairaland:

Baddestguyp

All created cos of Anti-spam bot

I don't need to create a 4th account for the likes of you.
