Aku no Hana, Japan’s best ever (and only) rotoscoped TV anime, has exposed the original film used as a basis for its much loathed visual style.
The original photographic material used to create the shoddy rotoscoping the series is notorious for was recently aired as a “premium” extra on NicoNico:
Given the quality of their cast and production values, some have been given to ponder what possessed them not to simply make a TV drama in the first place…

I was considering if I should watch it. Now I'm considering if I have commit suicide, after I take some japanese with me.
do not commit sudoku think about your family
lol sudoku?
yeah i play Seppuku everyday when riding the train to work. NOT.
Please tell me this was an unintentional error. GOLDEN FAIL COMMENT OF THE DECADE.
it's a meme.
Quite a shamefur dispray.
GReat idea, take as many moetards as you can with you sir. Thank you.
SHUT UP!!!
Get out! NOW!
I'll say both, STFU>FO!
Thank you.
BITCH
If Aku No Hana was a "Live Action" movie series rather than rotorscope anime, it will be a much better.
Says a moetard, you cannot be taken seriously
moetard, moetard.. just shut the fuck up already.
Just because he hate that fuckin ugly art, doesn't mean he a moetard.
GTFO moetard
STFU idiot
(the STFU was at the GTFO. of course. Damn you, reply-system)
How does prefering REAL LIFE actors make someone moetard? I could understand if they said they prefered the standard moeblob type anime, but that's not what they said. Rather than swearing and spouting incomprehensible nonsense, please justify your accusations. Maybe then we all won't think you're developmentally delayed (my appologies if you actually are).
@18:52 - maybe it was the avatar that made him call him a moetard?
Moetard is clearly a nickname for "homosapien".
Trolling people by using "anonymous" account ? get a life dude :)
i would agree for tv series
but heck this show full of the lolz
and for the scrubs out there, there's nothing wrong moe you fagGots!
I agree, it would've been better if they just made it live action.
"Given the quality of their cast and production values, some have been given to ponder what possessed them not to simply make a TV drama in the first place.."
They should have, the rotoscope is not even decent quality.
Whar not decent quality is the scrwed up mind and perspective of moetards, they should nd must disappear.
aGAIN, JUST SHUT UP.
No, you shup up!
Everyone just shut up!!
What was that.....?
THE WIND!!!!!!!
trolls!
gets' em every time
Since you appear from you comments to be about twelve years old or so, can you please tell us about how many times a week your father rapes you? And how many animals do you vivisect a week?
You see, being (as you clearly are) unable to appreciate the beauty of something like the average moe character -- characters specifically designed to fall into the very definition of beautiful -- means that you are quite likely the kind of person who can not understand the purpose of an art museum because to you the paintings are merely squares of canvas with blobs of paint on them.
In short, you are highly psychologically damaged. You appear destined to becoming a serial killer, or an average corporate CEO. Please seek professional help as soon as possible. If none is available to you where you are, then please just go play in traffic.
classy
you surely told that troller after he completely trolled you
ALL of you SHUT UP, before I cut your throats, pull out your intestines and feed them to my cats!!

Well, That was barely English but...
As for the crappy rotoscoping: how about the scenes where faces are missing entirely and lips don't look like lips because they just made them into black wavy lines. Mouth movement is off, which is ironic since they traced a picture.
I have no issue with the girls not looking like they are all anorexic to make it work, I like the normal proportions, but the faces, when they bother to draw them, are a mess.
Not to mention the fact that most of the time they're also missing their noses too.
Open your eyes, a lot of anime these days don't draw noses. For example look at K-ON.
i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought about this
This is the first time in my life that I've seen the drama version being better than the anime.
Hey, PEDORRON, you have shitty taste, echale unos pedos a los moetard
tirate unos pedoes bien pestilentes para los moe denegenrados
So true.
Still needs lolis.
i'm starting to like this show
FOR REAL!
what if.... You..... actually thought this can allways become worse? ^^
How is this worse? I don't see the difference...
I don't either. I guess people are so attached to the same old thing that any semblance of something different scares them.
i want her to rape me!
mmmmmmmmmmm!!!
Japanese infuriated when faced with the truth that how ugly they are... back to disproportioned 2D chicks!
They live in their own pathetic artificial world, dont mind the poor souls.
would be a good argument if the 2d model were better than their 3d counterpart ... the girl is actually cute .
which make this rothingy even worse ...
ugly is ugly, no matter how you cut it
I'm sure you'd look better of you cut your wrist ... wanna try ?
This guy is a real trooper, taking one for the team. After all, somebody's gotta take the ugly broad...
i love ugly girls!
there so fucking sexxxi!
japan! here i come!
They don't like disproportionate 2D chicks, they like girls who look a lot younger than they actually are, even at 18.
Most 80 years olds (and humanity in general) have faces more appealing than that of a chimp.
