Man, it's sad that after all these years of doing these campaigns, it's still necessary and the outlook for animators hasn't improved a bit. Sad that these campaigns and initiatives are still necessary.

ruined over the course of 3 years by a shit release schedule.

In what way is it being ruined right now?

because of how much they fucked up its ending by calling it Final Season

Agreed, that was a big fuck up, but I don't see how it actually ruined the ending, aside from being disappointed it didn't actually end yet, which iirc, they announced while it was airing.

continuing to push "Final" more and more over 3 years.

I mean, they can't very well call it something else afterwards.

Not a fan of family dinners, I presume?

Not like that, no haha

Can I ask why? I can't get my head around why someone would want a botched version of something over a (way) longer than planned release schedule, but done more properly.

Don't get me wrong, I'm very disappointed in Mappa too for the way they handled this, but not so much to stop watching AoT, because the story is still amazing.

That actually kinda made me feel sick

Oh yea, on the animation front I 100% agree with that, especially for the 1st part. It's a shame WIT didn't want to do it anymore. Same for Sawano not doing the music anymore. However, if they didn't split it up, I think it would've suffered worse. For example, part 2 was already a step up from part 1 in terms of animation. But that's only the animation. The story would've suffered the most if they rushed.

Of course, in the ideal world they would've done neither and planned their projects properly to give them enough time to finish it in 1 go.

I would have preferred them cram everything into a terrible final season than edging us like this for 3 years.

Really? With, as a likely consequence, a massive drop in quality because of a rush job? I think the reaction would've been much worse than what it is now

Personally, it didn't kill the hype for me. Better that they split it up, instead of trying to cram everything into the original final season. I think the biggest mistake was naming it Final Season to be honest. If it wasn't named Final Season, I don't think anyone would've bat an eye. I'm more disappointed in how AoT didn't seem to get the priority from Mappa or whoever it should've gotten.

Not on topic, but do spoiler tags work differently across instances/apps? I don't see the spoiler filter being applied in your comment

Really incomparable, but definitely worth a shot

I was surprised Kingdoms of Ruin was on there to begin with

Probably a good thing that this a oneshot. The joke already got old near the end.

Decided to share one of my favourite oneshots.

Thanks, I'll check it out

That was a fun read

Based on this top 10, I started watching Kingdoms of Ruin. I don't get it. The basis of the premise (magic is outdated, so let's kill the witches) doesn't make a lick of sense and the humans are so cartoonishly evil. It's so obvious they're only trying to make the viewer angry.

Oof

I'm sorry, what?

Damn, I missed this

Not to come across too stubborn or unwilling, but yeah, that solution doesn't seem great either. Honestly, I like it less than your original suggestion. 2 communities just for anime? That seems like a good way to splinter the community that's already small and way too convoluted for newcomers. I wouldn't want to watch 2 spaces for anime.

Honestly, keeping it the way it is would be better. It's only really an issue if the bot, API or whatever has an outage or bug.
