I love Anime.
But NOT for Mass Effect.Though ME has elements of cyberpunk here and there, it is solidly an old school Western Space Opera. The Animatrix suited the Asian concepts and views on technology espoused in the matrix's philosophy as well as the martial arts. I think it doesn't suit ME really. I'm against the idea.
Pity the Animatrix was the only good thing to come out of those sequels. They make baby jesus cry otherwise.
I disagree. My favorite part of The Animatrix was the part that I linked in my previous post: The Second Renaissance.
That part doesn't have martial arts or anything Japanese, it's 100% cold bloody and horrible warfare against the machines. When I watched The Seond Renaissance again when I posted my previous comment, I couldn't help but thinking how awesome it would be to see something similar with Mass Effect, the humans v.s the reapers.
I also meant general Asian philosophies on the soul, machines, yadda yadda yadda. The repeated lotus flower imagery, bla bla. This would work with the Geth angle, hell it would kinda be an obvious retread but the whole idea of the Matrix was a recycling of oriental culture to a Western marketplace joining it with Christo-Judaic ideas. Have some good articles on the subject if you want to read them...though if you're really nice you won't since I'm a very lazy man!
Just think that Mass Effect has more in common with say Star Trek and BG than GitS...Don't mention Akira though (shudder)
Yes I know and I'm well aware that The Matrix in general is a hybrid between western culture and eastern traditions. But my point was is that an anime like The Second Renaissance (Part 2) would also work for (mostly) pure western sci-fi series such as Mass Effect. The style of The Second Renaissance didn't have anything particular Japanese in it, except for the colorful V.I narrator with her lotus and everything.
Now that you mentioned the geth, I think it would be an amazing idea to include an animation about the geth uprising against the quarians in the Mass Effect anime (if indeed such an anime would be made). Seeing how the geth turned against the quarians would be pretty similar to The Animatrix where you see how the machines turned against the humans. As a matter of fact, the story is EXACTLY 100% the same (including the first self-aware robot asking his human master if it has a soul).
I would also love to see something from the First Contact war, the rachni war and the krogan rebellion.
Now I think of it, an anime about the history of Mass Effect would be AWESOME! I would LOVE to see some animations of how humans joined the galactic civilisation, including the the expedition on Mars and later the First Contact war.
