Re: Kill la Kill

Shounen/Action

No, not really. Kill la kill takes all the standard shonen tropes and exaggerates them to the level of absurdity, to the point where its closer to satirizing typical shonen anime than it is to being one. Comparing kill la kill to typical shonen crap is like comparing Stephen Colbert to Bill O'reilly. They may appear similar at first glance and may even say a lot of the same stuff, but anyone who understands what they're watching can see that they're practically opposites.

There are other enjoyable things about kill la kill that set it apart, but they're harder to explain and more subjective.

Binge-watched this over the past few days between working on reports, slightly disappointed with the ending and overall predictability of most plot 'surprises' but was pretty damn hilarious nonetheless

yeah but in the end, it's shit and so is the rest of the genre, save maybe one or two titles. I'm not joking. Go watch it again and say that it didn't fuck around or pull shit out of its ass.

Maybe it's just that I've never watched an action/shounen I've really liked besides Gurren Lagann, but this one wasn't special by any means. no I'm kidding, I'm sure there are some good ones out there. I was trying to make a point by using extremes.

cosplaying Mikisugi at AN

there's probably gonna be a lot of them at AN, that I'm absolutely sure of, but I doubt many of them will have the right bod to pull it off

I think there will be an influx of klk cosplays in general, but they'll be dwarfed by the sheer number of attack on titan, madoka, and sword art online cosplays this year, lmfao

p.s. I liked this show, but enjoyed gurren lagann more

It seems my post flew over your head or you would know that this is kind of the point.

I'd like to see where you get that idea. If the show didn't take itself seriously for the first 15-18 episodes I might have flat-out agreed with you.

Re: Kill la Kill

The show didn't take itself seriously for the whole series and it was great.

Re: Kill la Kill

just marathon'd this the past 3 days. I was very pleased, a highly enjoyable cast of characters and and really fantastic story throughout.

Didn't like that some more serious moments just got shit on by mako at times. Also the whole "this isn't even my final form" thing was getting a little redundant after a while and lost its value. Some of the plots are a little difficult to follow especially with how little detail is given with the whole life fiber human being thing.

Re: Kill la Kill

I've come to the conclusion that you're just supposed to sit back and enjoy things Trigger produces. Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, and Inferno Cop are all kinda stupid in their own aspects but they're some of the most exciting shit to watch if you just don't care about logic

That's honestly how it is. It's just dumb fun but really good dumb fun.

Just don't go tumblr dumb and think there's some kind of deep, feminist message behind it :V
