see, i really and simply cannot give a rat's ass on whatever source material is being used. i evaluate an anime based on... *SURPRISE* THE ANIME!
by itself... its OK. so far. it's the the first episode after all. and hanakana gg'd. hopefully no f***ing re however that seems to be wishful thinking seeing the op/ed and well, it is hanakana

also, naw, just lol 5.1 headsets.

Yes, of course were talking about the anime, what the hell do you think screenplay is?

my highlighted bold wasn't clear enough?

i certainly don't rate it "great screenplay" despite it had weak source material. its just OK to me because i rate it for what it is. see, i don't have a comparative basis while you apparently do.

This anime have a horrible story, retarded if I may say.
But screenplay has nothing to do with it, and as far as I concern, this anime nailed it. At least in its first ep.

Well timed cut and exposition, very technical that makes a great episode structure as a whole.
That what I see, and to be honest the ntr and the plot makes me wants to drop this shit if not for its great directing.

I hope Okada doesn't screw this up, she is well know for 'the journey matters more than the destination'.

I just saw good animation, and Nana Mizuki getting kicked in the face. Music is not bad, no idea what the plot is about. Miyuki Sawashiro as a stranded mage is pretty cool, too. I can't trust Bones to maintain high quality animation, but eh, I like where it's going.

obviously im not even talking about the plot (or story) because judging plot on ep 1 is just... well yeah.

anyways, giving credit on screen play because of... as per your quote "timed cut and exposition", is kinda saying michael bay films blowing shit up everywhere has great screenplay/script writing and to me, that's just bullshit.

but hey, there are people who think otherwise, and his films did won a lot of awards and made huge monies, and i've watched them too (despite of what i think) on cinemas, digital 2d overpriced tickets no less.
so to each his own i suppose.

although for the journey bit... hmm i am contemplating on dropping now w

...I...err...what?
Right now I honestly believe that you don't know what the hell is screenplay actually is.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenplay
would this suffice?

Not really, vague and there's couple of missing stuff like the fundamental theories , the importance of imagery etc etc, but still I think you should read it.

lets just assume i know nothing about screenplay, i read that, and based on my my understanding of the article with what is written within it, and i still draw the same conclusion and opinions, what next?

Then it would fool for either of us to continue this pointless debacle as its clear that were on a different books altogether.

ok

Congratulations, you've learned what everyone of us who knows quaz for a few years eventually learned: 'Arguing with quaz is pointless'.

Omedeto omedeto.
