| I like my fair of experimental anime, and this is not to say that I don't respect people opinion on the show, but what makes the show look so ugly to some people? Is it because the characters don't look exactly how they do in the manga? Is it because it's rotoscoped or the way it's rotoscoped? Is it because the character design don't have a moe-ish look or feel anime like? Or all the above? While I can't blame people for not liking the design because it is experimental and it suppose to push the boundaries a little, but I never would have thought that people would have so much strong feelings on the design. I personally think the rotoscope looks better than the MANGA!!!!!!!! While I haven't read that much of the manga, but I can say that artwork is not a strong point of manga. When I think of bad anime design I think ... Dead Leaves (Great Movie) Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer Fatal Fury:Motion Picture Kakugo no Susume Baki the Grappler Koi Kaze And etc. I think that the rotoscope in the show is not just a breath of fresh, but rotoscoping fits the mood of the show, it gives the show a realistic look, it give off realistic movement, the way dialogue sound and rotoscoping really make it feel like I'm looking a real Japanese setting unlike some anime, the background are hand down beautiful, and some scene looks incredible rotoscoped. The two things I sometimes don't like about the show is the main character and the pace of the story. I'm not bashing anybody, but really want to know why people don't like the show or the artwork so much? Also is the artwork that unbearable that people can't watch the show? |

| Short answer: All the above. Longer Answer: Because it's innovative and intelligent? The show isn't even finished yet and there are a lot of people that are rating it high. Can't please everyone. Look at Elfen Lied, half the people hate it rabidly, saying it is the most disgusting crap ever made, while the other half declare it a Masterpiece, one of the best anime's ever made. Who is right? If you like the show, fine, recommend it to your friends and don't worry about the haters. |
| I think it was a wise choice. I wouldn't like the anime to go any other way than it did. I didn't like it at the start, but what did ya know? I turned to like it. The down-to-earth storyline is so near and realistic to us that rotoscoping is just the right idea. I think it's hated because of its unusual art style. And also because of NO MOE. Plus, the storyline is quite matured and so real that some people might be somewhat "afraid" to watch it as it relates to us all. To me, it's a good series. Wouldn't say best of the best but I still love Aku No Hana, anime or manga. Looking forward to the second season. |

| yeah this is kind of dead thread but i love aku no hana so ill post anyway. i think the rotoscope was a big reason on why most people dont like it. its weird. anime is just all animation from a specific country, so why should it all look the same? i praise aku no hana for looking particularly unique. i feel like a lot of people cant deal with watching a show about people who dont look attractive, because thats just what they want to watch. it is also an INTENSELY slow paced show, which a lot of people just aren't interested is. i love aku no hana, but the only people who saw that show are people who watch a lot of anime and most people who watch anime are not at all part of the target demographic for aku no hana. i get why people dont like it and i dont even blame them for it honestly, but i think its pretty brilliant. |
