Utena would never have been as beloved as it is if it wasn't for the soundtrack.
Post harsh truths
Neither would any other popular game or anime
Pucci was right.
Are you stupid? Of course soundtrack is an important part of anime. Think about any anime you like and see if the ost is bad.
Harsh truths my ass. You want a harsh truth? Haruhi S1 sucked and only became popular because of the meme dance
>would never have been as beloved as it is if it wasn't for the soundtrack
That could be said about a lot of "classic" anime though. Would anyone give a shit about Cowboy Bebop if it wasn't for its jazz OST?
On another note, would anyone give a shit about Spielberg's movies if it wasn't for John Williams?
>an audiovisual work of fiction wouldn't be as beloved without the audio part being good
You're a real genius, user.
He did nothing wrong except commit blasphemy as a priest.
not sure if bait or retarded, yes music is important, harsh truth, anime is a fucking audio/visual experience.
thank you, finally someone that doesn't suck Haruhi's dick based on nostalgia.
the OP is the true genius.
I'm glad Zig Forums agrees that Utena's characters, story, pacing and animation sucks ass.
I mean the one thing you're missing out on is the way they broadcasted the show if you're watching it now. If you watch it in chronological order, it's going to be a slog to get through the first 1/3 of S1 because it's all exposition.
are you even trying?
I'm just rewording what OP said, he said Utena is only popular for the soundtrack which means most people don't care about the other aspects as much.
No the fuck we don’t
Utena but with penis music as soundtrack
it still works.
Rinbu Revolution aside, music was forgettable.
>if this anime didn't have a soundtrack it'd be shit
>therefore the soundtrack is the only part that matters to anyone
Hideaki Anno got lucky with Evangelion.
Yeah I don't get why its so beloved either. It was okay, but I don't see why people treat it like some kind of high art.
Because it is, user!
But WHY is it, user? Every problem in the show boils down to someone being too horny.
Just like in the real world if you think of it
if you think about it, that’s what I meant
Haruhi S1 isn't as good as S2 or the movie but it's still a masterpiece lmao, it doesn't matter what it was popular for when even today people don't understand the franchise
Prime minister Shinzo Abe would like to have a word with you
That's only possible if he also got lucky with Gunbuster
A lot of moments people praise are only good because of the music. Eg: re zero ep 15, steins gate ep 23, many scenes in attack on titan
Music is the best thing to come out of Steins;Gate by far
haruhi is boring. also you're dumb as hell op
>harsh truths
You asked for it.
The hate Haruhi is getting in the current anime community is the product of a conspiracy a lot of elites and governments are involved in, most likely of jewish origin. Haruhi's notions of predeterminism and its messages that "going against God's will isn't actually possible", "you should stop just consuming for the sake of consuming and actually try to dig into the media you consume even if there doesn't seem to be much at first glance" and "it doesn't matter if society thinks you're not qualified for something, do it anyway, none of that has any form of objective relevance" obviously do not fit well with authoritarian values that are currently being pushed by (((the left))), hell, how am i supposed to feel sorry for nigger slavery or the holocaust when, as Haruhi puts it, the universe might as well have been created 3 years ago and we wouldn't even notice? There's no guarantee that past events ever actually happened. Even in his time (before the two world wars) Nietzsche was using the jews as an example of a society that has master morality as its norm; and over a century later that's still the case. Masters need slaves and that's what good goys are to jews. So obviously they wouldn't allow a work with the power to turn masters into slaves to be highly regarded, or would make sure that as little people as possible actually understand it. Am i supposed to buy the narrative that one of the most popular anime of all time suddenly fell into irrelevancy in under a decade? And that just happened naturally? Yeah as if lol.
I'm sure you can already find some of (((them))) in this thread (or just look at the replies to this post kek)
*the power to turn slaves into masters, is what i meant
How is that a harsh truth dipshit? Next you'll say that if you took away the unique visuals and bizarre abstractness people wouldn't be as interested in it
Some people get really lucky with adaptations. For example, K-on! manga is completely irrelevant. The author is lucky that Kyoani chosen to adapt it.
N-NANI?!
