Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 Kamaitachi is 4 chapters so 2 parts was the logical choice. I dont know why, but i always thought of it as a 5 chaptersSilly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCUniverseAficionado 252 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 Splitting it up into 4 parts doesn't enthrall me. It's strange—considering the fact they just aired two one-hour specials—that they didn't just split it up into two, or not at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serinox 127 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 It's strange—considering the fact they just aired two one-hour specials—that they didn't just split it up into two, or not at all. Well, I guess they just wanted to fill the time in the anime while at the some time generating some interest for the movie at the same time. And by splitting Black Impact into 4 parts, the schedule of the anime fits perfectly into the movie release. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And by splitting Black Impact into 4 parts, the schedule of the anime fits perfectly into the movie release. Considering that the AO movie tie-in will air on the very day the movie is released, I'd agree that Black Impact was split up for such a reason. Does anyone know if there's a cut-off for remasters? I ask because Episodes 537 and 538 (released in June, 2009) were remastered in April 2015. This also means that the Clash of Red and Black episodes (491-504) are within the remaster range, so to speak. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 809 is out and i have to say that the only complain i have is the edited ending to me it seems that they split black impact into 4 is cause they wanted a longer break Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe it was too much work for Agasa's VA to come in and do a line Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted March 2, 2016 I have no large complaints about how the anime adapted this episode, though I still wonder how they'll handle the upcoming scenes. I'm not too happy about them cutting the scene with Heiji, Kazuha, and Yamamura at the beginning, but given they did something similar at the end of the Kamaitachi case, I'm really not too surprised. I suppose the transition might look a bit more awkward had they included that scene there and then skipped right to shadow-man, but I can't really find any justification for doing it. I expected the anime to censor this one pretty bad though, and I mean, there definitely is some censorship... but it was still much more "graphic" than I expected it to be. The atmosphere in the ending scene was done really quite well. Kuroda looked much more threatening in the manga, and while I do like his voice, I definitely don't have the same impression I got when reading the manga. His right eye being shaded looks silly though. That works in the manga, but it just looks weird in the anime. Can't say I was expecting them to do anything different since it is TMS, and not A-1 (which did show Goudzou's prosthetic). As far as the anime is concerned, this case will probably be my favorite this year, since it was my favorite in the manga last year... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted March 2, 2016 Next time the picture will go black. Or maybe the dead folks will be dark in the near future I guess we have to suck it up. But we wont stop making fun of it There is a wilde chance that this year a great AO episode comes out, you never know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wakarimashita 137 Report post Posted March 2, 2016 810 was really an excellent episode. And not that much censorship compared to what I initially expected. Highlights included the first scene of the episode as well as the strangling scene, basically all the scenes involving murder. Just a bit annoyed that they took out a funny scene once again probably to save on voice-acting.By the way, is it me or has the quality of CR's subs declined ? I was sometimes bothered by their timing or the way they split the sentences, not to mention a few typos here and there as well as odd phrasing. @Heliotropic : It's not his eye that's shaded, it's the right glass of his glasses, both in the manga and in the anime. Perhaps will it look different when we see him without his glasses, if we ever do. For now I prefer that the anime stick closer to what the manga did, which is what they did here.

Perhaps will it look different when we see him without his glasses, if we ever do. I don't think they've really declined. They've always been a bit "spotty" I guess, but when it comes down to it, I suppose every translator has their own way of wording things... Never too bothered by the timing/subs themselves. Maybe I'm not remembering things correctly, but sometimes it seems like they want to use honorifics and then others they just ditch them entirely? Ahh yes, my mistake. I should have said glasses Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would they have to transition from the Heiji Kazuha scene to the shadow-man? In the manga, the shadow-man appears before the Heiji Kazuha scene too, which means they would've simply had to add the Heiji Kazuha scene straight after the opening, but instead, that one page is skipped and they go from the opening straight to Kogoro taking Ran and Conan to Kawanakajima. I guess they didn't want to pay Yamamura's VA for just that one little scene (probably same thing for the cut Agasa line in 809). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wakarimashita 137 Report post Posted March 2, 2016 Speaking of one-liners, in the Nocturne Case they kept Vermouth's one line in the conclusion episode so when they really have to open up the wallet even for a single line they do so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uchiha Shadow 44 Report post Posted March 3, 2016 Kuroda looked much more threatening in the manga, and while I do like his voice, I definitely don't have the same impression I got when reading the manga. Agreed, I also thought his appearance was a bit weird too, his skin seems a bit darker than in the manga too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted March 3, 2016 That was in 2012. This cutting of short scenes seems to be a 2016 thing (or maybe just for these two cases). i have been noticing that as well even if they dont want to pay the VA, DC has more money now than ever and is more popular also if they didnt have a problem in the past why start editing now the second way to look at it is that if its not relevant to anything, they will just leave it out...cause, why pay it than also i rewatched the episode and noticed that the animation was horrible a few times, the characters i mean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted March 3, 2016 also i rewatched the episode and noticed that the animation was horrible a few times, the characters i mean Aside from the close-up frames, the background animation was definitely a bit odd.

Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted March 3, 2016 i did not have a problem with the background, to me it looked ok The scenery looked great, but most of the background character animation looked a bit odd to me, but this is usually always the case to some extent.

Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 811 is out there is talk that the animation in 811 is worse than the one in 810 the animation was better than in the previous one, at least to me CR should pay attention to typos the censoring was decent, good actually Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 I thought the facial details were worse this time around, otherwise it was about the same really. Nothing to really complain over, but there were a couple odd moments. I agree. I wasn't expecting them to show it like they did in the manga, there was no way they'd do that. It came across rather well though. The case so far has had really good pacing. Unfortunately we're gonna have a break for a month after next week because of the remastered case, but at least this means we won't have to sift through too many AOs after episode 813, or at least that's what I'm hoping.

Balthazar Manfredie 226 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 i kinda tolerated those facial details for some reason i did ask myself are they the same as the last time, but didnt had a problem with it its always better to remaster episodes or take an actual break then make AOs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
