Ultimate production controversy anime Aku no Hana is still proving as incendiary as ever, with the rotoscope treatment of the original’s “reverse rape” scene setting hearts aflutter for the eventual sex scenes present in the manga, and “fans” generally of the opinion that series could have dominated the season had it been animated properly…
The original:
The series is proving so provocative it seems nobody has thought to stop watching it:
“Best episode yet!”
“I don’t get why the protagonist is so upset about being assaulted like that!”
“If only this was properly made it would have been awesome. I really wanted to see the art from the original…”
“The scene where she stripped and changed him got me excited. Am I a pervert?”
“I wish they could have at least synced the dialogue to the mouth movements.”
“The rotoscoping worked really well for the reverse rape scene. Really fresh…”
“If they do the sex like this it will be good!”
“Considering how difficult it is to strip someone’s clothes off like that, he pretty much must have consented.”
“Their eyebrows keep disappearing from scene to scene, the guys animating this are totally inconsistent.”
“At this pace they will get to his deflowering soon. If this had used the original’s character designs it would have dominated the season, wouldn’t it?”

I feel like crying... This could have been so epic! Damn rotoscope! T-T
More like rotoscope of Down Syndrome patients. If you've seen other rotoscoped material, you'll realize that this one is far uglier than the average person.
For the moetard yes.
am i the only one that realizes that half the reason why this show is so awesome is because of the rotoscoping?
Go ahead and cry. I'll be over here enjoying this along with the other anime airing, because I'm not a child who whines about things not always being easy to watch.
When butch woman wants sex, she's going to get it and there's nothing you can do to stop her.
Its like rape by monster arrrrghhh
True rapists are monsters, so that checks out.
All im gonna say is if my clothes comes off "someone" is getting rammed.
i just cant help but look at her like shes a guy =/
That's no girl, that's a MAN BABY, yeah!
Also, that's no moon, that's a BATTLE STATION!
Or a talent coin
Hey look its a retard, no, a moetard
Even the guy looks better than her...wtf
hahaha.. so true.
the protagonist is the only one that look decent, the "mental girl" look like a dude, while the heroine that suppose to be a beautiful, is not that good looking..
So? Do you need to beat off to every anime you watch?
can you man-children just get over it already? i'm sorry if you're too immature to appreciate something if you can't jack off to it or if you can't seem to understand that maybe, just maybe, there are deeper themes to this series other than sex sex sex sex sex.
You jack off of this?
You are so right on, their definitely more anime then stupid fanservice and sexual suggested scenes. Crap like that ruins all the true meaning and story of the actual theme of the anime.
I'm trying, but I can't get into it. Would've been a great anime otherwise.
Agreed, if this had been done from a manga/source material that somewhat rezembeled it. This series would have been most liekly well recieved. However, it's based on something that noware near resembles it. Thus gaining an instant hate/ strong dislike as a result.
I could put up with the style if Nakamura was at least attractive. Being both ugly and creepy just makes her a completely unappealing character.
Judging by the screens of the first episode, I agree with you. This episode however makes her look slightly less down syndromey, so I'll give it a shot.
Yeah, I'm getting past the looks. Have the strangest boner from the .gif.
She's not meant to be appealing.
She's one of the most unappealing characters ever invented. I was waiting the whole manga for her to be tortured to death or something, but the creator was too much of a pussy to do something like that

Yes for shitty moetards like you, fucking moron
Wait for Aku no Hana: Brotherhood.
Not well recieved? It in top five chart!
Well, obviously moetards are oblivious to that fact.
Is it the sales chart?
Sure you cant, get the fuck out moetard.
Obviously you ain't trying hard enough.
maybe otakus can't appreciate the sex scene because the art style is going to make it look like the RAPE SCENE IT ACTUALLY IS
rape=/=sex, sorry if your moé toons have blinded you
Well sai sir.
Seems like lots of retards here cant use any other insult or argument other than "you are moetard"
Yeah. Even if you're an experienced professional animator, if you point out issues with the animation, you're automatically a moetard.
They can do this shit all they want but why do they have to ruin original work with this shit? Would this otherwise never made it to anime is that it??
Pretty much agreed with that - any story(short novel or something) could be done with this style but why they ruin the image of original manga?
But the animation is stil f$#@$#ing awesome!
It's not animation, it's a live action with photoshop filters.
>animation
>Aku no Hana
Ahahaha! No.
Just like fuckinh moe ruined anime
They didn't ruin it. It's still there. They didn't kill your baby. Get over it.
Animated properly? You'll never see traditional animation that smooth . It's animated fucking brilliantly.
I Agree, 100%
+1
That is one exceptionally well animated anime. I don't get what they're complaining about...
Oh, wait, they're a bunch of moetards, right.
I also agree. This is by far much better done than the contemporary generic animation style seen.
Much anime seems to be drifting towards a hybrid of western cartoon style, while Aku no Hana is a fresh breeze of realism.
I hope for all our sakes that you get heart disease and get it soon. I really mean that from the bottom of my fucking heart.
So apparently, you're entitled to wish death on people who're willing to look past the ugliness, but when people call you out on being shallow, they're wrong? Nice logic.
@ 04:38
What kind of logic do you expect from shallow creatures like moetards. Expected.
Of course, people who don't like this ugly style are 'moetards'. Idiots.
And who the f*ck needs realism when you want to watch anime? Get a jdrama for that sh*t :/
"YOur pain sustains me" Go watch your shitty generic moe and shut the fuck up
You should as well shut the F up, the anime art style was a horrible mistake and yeah it does give it own unique way but it like saying school days was a masterpiece story
So what you're saying is that EVERY anime should be unrealistic? What the fuck is wrong with you? One anime does something different and your world's suddenly falling apart?
No, but fuck up your own original story, not something the viewers have expectations for because of the manga!
Yes, yes, a style that sacrifices the majority of character detail, and completely lacks shading, resulting in the characters looking like cardboard cutouts and look completely out of place when compared to the nearly immaculate backgrounds, is a, "fresh breeze of realism".
I'm sorry but that "breeze" isn't realism, its the studio farting in your face with their lazy half-assed style.
Rotoscoping can be a good thing when used correctly, but in this case the studio just used it to save money, because you don't need to hire talented and capable animators when all you need is someone who can trace pictures.
And we all know that people like anime because of it's realism
All these comments praising realism remind me of how modern game visuals are increasingly generic and boring because everyone tries to be realistic instead of stylish.
If you want realism maybe you try opening your door and going outside. There's quite a bit of reality out there. Enjoy to your heart's content.
The motion is so realistic that I think they use real people for motion-capture then redraw them.
They use. Google "rotoscope", noob.
I suppose it's brilliant to amateurs who think frame rate is everything. In reality, animation consists of more than being smooth.
And there are plenty of examples of amazing traditional animation. Try broadening your tiny scope before you make ignorant statements.
