Fuck Mu. Kurt-chan is best.
Listeners
Why is this show not more popular? It's airing on Friday and it's by Studio MAPPA. What went wrong?
Because of you.
It's just not a great show user. They put more effort into shoving boomer classic rock references at the viewer than they do into an engaging story or characters. Result is something that's not worth watching unless you're Zig Forums.
Might as well ask why shit like ToG is popular, it's a cointoss.
RIP Kurt, she should have won
Because it's not shit despite being adaptation of gook comics. Listeners show however is. Pure garbage. Waste of pomodorosa
Terrible pacing, choreography, characters, and writing.
I honestly can't imagine the amount of shit taste needed to reach your opinion
Designs aren't striking enough. Production value isn't that high. Writing is awfully on the nose. The "fight" scenes are an embarrassment.
Some nice sound and namedropping famous musicians isn't enough to make it interesting.
Ugly characters
Mappa's CGI animation is really bad in this one. Dai Sato packed a 13-episode anime with way too much exposition.
Too many girls around Echo, not enough with their own boys.
The music isn't covers or licensed versions of the actual bands/musicians music, it's just random soundtracks and some really decent EDs.
I love the main characters chemistry, it really is reminiscent of Eureka 7.
I generally enjoy harems, but Echo just having some girls crush on him just feels pointless here because we know Mu is endgame.
Much less than someone who likes Listeners for sure.
My Sword belongs to Kurt-chan
Team Nir , dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach!
so, for those who CARE about this show:
Next episode has 2 funny things:
We get to see Civilian Jimi....
and we see this....
.....
i have no fuckign clue: is the Jimi above a time lapse flashback and this is the real Jimi?
what the fuck ARE the earless anyway?
Megabrainlet here, can someon explan to me what the fuck is going on? Jimi is an earless, but he wants to become friends with the earless, and Mu is Jimi and want to kill earless and what is even Tommy plan???
Definitely going to find out what the Earless are soon since that's one of the central plot mysteries. (What are these things and where did they come from? Are they really former Players?) If we don't, I will shitpost about it in every Listeners thread I see until the end of time.
I'm pretty sure the first thing is a flashback, like when we see him in the Pink Floyd country.
And Earless are humans that failed to become players, especially those that are in direct contact with players.
At least going by EP2 and 7.
>Mu is Jimi
She isn't, she's just high on Teen Spirit/Purple Haze
>what is even Tommy plan?
Killing the beatles
Tower of God is basically Chuunin Exam + Sasuke Retrieval Arc + Soul Society Arc all mashed together in a somewhat unique setting and with a fairly interesting mix of fights. Maybe it's because it's a webcomic, but the eclectic mix of fantasy and sci-fi elements helps keep it original in each arc, even though its fairly easy to predict which shounen cliches are going to be at the heart of the next story. It's also got some really interesting relationships between some of its characters.
At the very least, it's worlds better than Black Clover, Seven Deadly Sins, or Fire Force.
>or Fire Force.
I'm sorry but that is wrong on pure production values alone.
Also it has cuter girls
Earless are explicitly ghosts/souls though. At least, that's what that episode about Pink Floyd.
listeners is getting kinda better at the end
The entire show is "DUDE REFERENCES LMAO"
Now that old crippled guy has a matching hole in his head just like Nir!
Nah, TOG has Hwa Ryun, Yuri, Ehwa, and Maschenny. It has better girls.
I think I'd agree but the pacing in the last 2 episodes was so fucked it might be just my brain not being able to process it very well
Dead show.
Pacing has been fucked for the whole series. Only now that stuff is actually happening does it feel like it's approaching normal in my opinion.
