OriginalRen Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Maybe people have seen this, but seeing as it was uploaded 4 months ago, it still feels pretty new. I thought it was pretty cute. Check it out, and make sure to pause and read a lot of the little references they make during the video. The bulletin boards, the advertisements, the notes, the chalkboards, and the tests all have them. Don't fail the test! A failing grade will result in having to watch a dub by 4Kids.

Freestyle80 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 hahahaha this might be a good way to introduce anime to people who only watched a couple of them xD that was pretty fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sable Crow Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ..................Is it completely awesome... or rather sad that I for someone recognize pretty much all the anime referenced here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ..................Is it completely awesome... or rather sad that I for someone recognize pretty much all the anime referenced here? Depends on whether you think it's a good thing or not to be down on the spiral. But it's an anime 101, so there's mostly just well known stuff here. Can't be too deep into the spiral. Maybe. I recognized pretty much everything too. It's not a bad video, he didn't get anything wrong after all. But I'm not sure if making tons of references is really supposed to help someone get into anime. It sounds like a video that appeals to people that are already anime viewers imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenkuru Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 That's gotta be one of the most awesome things I've ever seen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cythnar Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 That was actually hella entertaining. That's coming from someone who doesn't recognize half the anime shown. >_> I've been enlightened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stray Cat Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ..................Is it completely awesome... or rather sad that I for someone recognize pretty much all the anime referenced here?

Zalor Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Main characters always sit next to the window, so therefore it's impossible for there to be a whole classroom filled with main protagonists, (unless they all cram next to the window). Great video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestyle80 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 i never understood that window thing,did one guy randomly decide it and everyone else followed suit? xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 i never understood that window thing,did one guy randomly decide it and everyone else followed suit? xD The animators at KyoAni were never taught how to draw anything else. So now they can only draw their MC there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosebleed Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Because looking out the window into the sky makes everything deeper and meaningful. It shows how the protagonist is in a state of depression due to his boring school, represented by the sad blue of the sky. And then when the new student comes (because a new student always comes) you can then feel the emotional shift because the protagonist stops dozing off and looking out the window to looking at the new student, showing that the 2 will develop an emotional bond. Or animators are just lazy. Stray Cat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 ..................Is it completely awesome... or rather sad that I for someone recognize pretty much all the anime referenced here? It is kinda sad that people like us recognise most of these references but kinda awesome as well if you exclude the fact that we they don't exactly have a life.
