mochi Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 everything else they've made is just.....a huge let down Code Geass was fucking horrible (and was basically just a Pizza Hut commercial) they had some gay manga called Legal Drug that kinda never really went anywhere cause they lost interest in it then after Legal Drug they made xXxholic which.....could've been a lot better than it was if they'd done several things differently 1. had not tied it in with Tsubasa Chronicle but focused more on it being canon to Cardcaptor Sakura 2. had made Doumeki and Watanuki Gay(they implied Doumeki had feelings for him, but then confirm he is straight at the end of the story, they also went on the record as saying they don't belive Homosexuality exists at the time they made Holic which, considering Cardcaptor Sakura and legal drug is just bizzarre), and 3. given it an ending that made sense, I recall even they admitted the ending made no sense and that they'd do it over and change the ending completely if they ever got the chance and Tsubasa Chronicle which was basically a kingdom hearts fanfic with Clamp Characters I remember very little about Angelic layer....but that kinda says it right there and Blood C is also terrible....nice opening though I've never seen Magical Knight Reyearth but people say it's good, I should probably watch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naraku360 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 The only thing Clamp did for Code Geass was character designs. They didn't really have much to do with the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satou Kazuma Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Shows how much you know about Clamp. Not one mentioned of x/1999 and Tsubasa Chronicle came out before kingdom hearts. So fuck off with your bitterness at life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So fuck off with your bitterness at life. Kingdom hearts came out in 2002 Tsubasa Chronicle came out in 2003 saying Tsubasa came first is like those fans who insist .hack// was a copy of Sword art Online even though .Hack//Sign came out in 2002 and SAO was first published in 2009 also yeah I forgot X/1999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daos Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Blood C has its moments. Top notch soundtrack, interesting bestiary, weird plot twists and gore that borders on sickening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light novels weren't published until '09. Either way, it's obvious you don't know what words mean. You think everything is a "rip-off" or "copy" of everything, as opposed to, you know, recurring tropes. Only thing the two series really have in common is the videogame setting.

Chapinator_X Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Until it went to shit with that timeskip. I remember the time skip being weird. Yuko was the best part of the series, so trying to shift the weight of the series on Watanuki was a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben0119 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 and the Coma plot and the mysterious Little girl in white who's linked to the Game's code Yeah but everyone was in a coma and not just one character, and no one had amnesia. SAO also killed people. Don't remember anyone dying in .hack. The story there was a death game and how to survive it and how to get out of it, why it was made. .hack was more what's this Tsukasa kid's deal and hmm something isn't quite right about this world. The little girl in .hack was more a of a plot point or MacGuffin than actual character, unlike the girl in SAO, who wasn't nearly as integral to the game's infrastructure, either. Either way, with both series being conceived of at the same time, there's no way to know if one bit off the other. People often come up with similar ideas independently. And I mean, MMORPGs were a big thing at the time. Reki has cited his inspiration as being the old school MMOs he played around that time and beforehand (as opposed to the later ones people complained SAO wasn't like). Many of the games he played were Western and he didn't speak English, so he had trouble coordinating with other players. He wasn't that good at these games. He was impressed with the people who were really good (maybe even idolized? ) and this would've been why he created elite players like Kirito and Asuna as the main characters.

ben0119 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Don't forget the Yuki Kajiura soundtrack. Yuki Kajiura is awesome and what she does and in anything she's included in. So yeah it's a similarity but not something I'd complain about. Music fits both shows and I love both OSTs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
