>>334157>>334169Ponyo is the one I'd say is the most questionable. Don't really like that one much at all. There's a 1995 romance film called Whisper of the Heart about the song Country Roads that's pretty enjoyable. It gets overlooked because it's not a Miyazaki film.
Lupin III Castle of Cagliostro is a secret/honorary Ghibli film, it was Miyazaki's first film and probably my favorite film he's made.
He also directed a 26 episode anime series called Future Boy Conan that is excellent as well.

The mysteries are never bullshit, but some (around 10%) can still feel that way since they require knowledge of the Japanese language to solve. The mysteries are all meant to be solvable though.

Most anime are adaptations of manga that got popular enough to get producers rubbing their hands at the prospect of merchandising. Or even worse, they are adaptations of light novels, or standalone products conceptualized purely to kickstart an entirely new line of merchandise. Since people nowadays are quick to judge commercial stuff as slop, then by definition all anime are slop. So the real answer is to abandon anime in its entirety and read manga instead. There are tons of untranslated manga out there that you will never even know about if you cannot read Japanese. And even if you are an EOP, there are still thousands of very good manga that never got any anime adaptation because they (thankfully) never got popular with westerners and chinkoids/SEAniggers.

No.336257
>>336254Some stuff like Conan is pretty accurate and a lot of people would argue is even an improvement over the manga.
You do have a point in general, the anime adaptation is often an inferior product. Some examples:
>Magical Index Season 3 shit the bed because it adapted light novels at a rate of two episodes per 300+ page novel.>Char's Counterattack is such a frustrating film because it starts up halfway through a novel and changes the protagonist's love interest to a new girl, leading to a movie where the characters aren't consistent with the rest of the series.>Kaiji season 2 is accurate enough, but has ads for a live-action film embedded into the episodes.>Kindaichi is heavily censored (all gore, nudity, and sex jokes are removed, making the show a hollow representation of the manga. No.336459
I'm 10 episodes into Conan now and while I'm enjoying it so far, I am a little bothered by the pacing of some of the episodes. It's like they were originally meant to be two-parters, but were condensed into single episodes later on. And the way they seem to do this is to have the episodes be 95% part 1 and then cram all of the information from part 2 into the last couple of minutes. This is especially noticeable in the episode with the poisoned college student. Do they ever fix this problem later on?
No.336460
>>336257>Char's Counterattack is such a frustrating film because it starts up halfway through a novel and changes the protagonist's love interest to a new girl, leading to a movie where the characters aren't consistent with the rest of the series.Was that a novel originally? I thought Tomino wrote the novelizations later on.

No.336463
>>336460Since this is Tomino we're talking about, a massive hack who doesn't know how to write believable humans and regurgitates the same idiotic tropes in every one of his stories, I'd be highly skeptical of any notion that uh akshually the book is good and only the movie is shit.

(you can usually tell because they have an OP and ED from the future spliced in).
Also make sure you are watching the parts after the ED, as nearly every episode that isn't a two-parter has more story after the ending sequence.
The one with the college student is an anime original episode so that's contributing to why it seems especially off. There's only so much they can cram into ~22 minutes.
They start making more two-parters and longer episodes pretty quickly (the first longer episode is 11.)

No.336472
>>336469Opening and Ending, every anime has an opening sequence which usually consists of a music video with credits. However, there is usually an intro scene which is an actual part of the episode preceding the OP. Likewise, the ED will be another music video with the rest of the credits, typically bookended by the PV, a preview of the next episode.

>>336470>Tomino knows how to write believable humansNo, he just writes fucking idiots. Probably because he in fact is a fucking idiot himself. I haven't seen anything he's done that isn't Gundam, but none of the characters in any Gundam series of his has ever struck me as consistent or human-like. They all act out like imbeciles when called for, to move the plot along (usually in really shallow, formulaic directions).
