What don't people like about this show? It hasn't gotten to "the good part" yet, and it's already my AOTS.

Shit writing and art.

The idea of nosebleeds is retarded as fuck. I wouldn't have minded if it was his ghost boner or something, but nosebleeds? Really?

The Eight Deadly Words is an old internet meme.

It goes:

It's just boring.

I don't want AOTS to become popular, or else I'll hate it.

False dichotomy. They can well think all the anime of the season have shitty writing and shitty art! Sheesh, Anon-kun, it's like you haven't studied your logical fallacies *pun pun*.

Being wrong?

Really? It mostly has strong character writing so far.
Is it because we still know little about them? Or people are just too used to their "Innocent moe high schoolers doing stupid high school things"?
>>
>>124970809
No lesbians here m8.
>>
>>124971086
Yuri shows seldom have lesbians.

It boils down to the most ironic thing. There is literally no punchline for the show.

The writing sucks. Random shit happens. I don't care about anyone.

The title must be a question because

THERE

IS

NO

I have no history with this Uchikoshi guy, but I'm really having a fun ride with this show. It's very different from your average anime this season.

Meika best btw

>>124970953
Personally it feels as though the characters are merely a vehicle to move the plot forward. It's hard for me to be attached to a show when I have neither a positive or negative reaction to the characters even if the setting, tone, and/or plot is interesting.
>>
>>124972076
I agree, Punchline is more "plot-centric" than "character-centric." I don't think I remember an anime I watched the focused more on plot instead of characters, and a non linear one at that.
>>
>>124972076
Pretty much this, the worst case of this in the show is the MC.
>>
>>124967554
It's because it's different
>>
>>124972178

And it's a plot-centric story... That hasn't had enough plot, just bits and pieces.

It tries to be a puzzle it wants us to solve, but it's not a puzzle we care about.

It's got Homestuck structure. But unlike Homestuck, which had progression from the very beginning (though slow slow slow because the story itself is just really long), Punchline started, sputtered and is now running in place.

And the MC doesn't interact with anyone! The main character, the character we're supposed to be interested in, is literally a ghost in spectator mode doing jack shit unless a Deus Ex Machina event demands some of that sweet cinnamon. He doesn't interact with the girls, the girls don't interact with him, and it's all just flat.

Oh, the land lady is a robot with a boring backstory that was kind of pointlessly taking up minutes of air-time, you say? How droll. Is there anything else about her? Please pass the potatoes.

I think the girls will be fleshed out first and well Uchikoshi has a habit of revealing some crazy shit about the protagonist maybe near the end of the series, like the usual.
>>
>>124972448
I don't know anything about Punchline and you're description is reminding me of Popotan.

Which is a very easy way to scare me out of a series.
>>
This show is garbage is rightfully selling like shit and getting ignored.

The only people that like it are contrarians that want to pretend they have good taste for liking a "deep complex story that other people just don't get."
>>
There is no theme or underlying symbolic tension going on.

Let's take FLCL, which is superificially in the same kind of category.

It oozed with coming of age and sex.

Punchline just has nosebleeds. Does it mean anything? Is there a point to this? Is this show just lolrandumb, or is there an something it wants to say? It doesn't need to be about sex, either! Even with all the punchline shots.

Where is the heart?

It's actually popular, 31k watching or more.
Its just not talked about. Whats to say about it anyway

>>124972769
Perhaps this 'fanservice' is a way to indirectly address the trend of both the anime industry and how it handles women in general. Like gently speaking to male otaku + teens, "It's okay to have sexual urges. That's normal. Never hate yourself for it. But don't forget who you're impacting when you think of women this way, or the cool real life ladies you could be spending time with," and to women (even fujoushi?), "We're trying. We're here for you. You can be yourself and feel comfortable about that."

I hope I'll still be able to actually care by that point, if he could at least interact with someone other than the cat it wouldn't be that bad.

I don't see anything in the show that can support that interpretation,

If it's your AOTS, you really need to watch more anime.

It's pretty shitty, Euphonium is far better than it. But hey, Punch Line has art similar to KLK so the /v/ crossboarders will be all over it.

It's retarded as fuck but I keep watching it anyway.
>>
>>124973576
>I don't see anything in the show that can support that interpretation
Neither does your FLCL comparison

>>124973247
Ignored by people who buy the BDs. I'll be surprised if it sells more than 3k.
>>
>>124973734

That wan't me, sperglord.
>>
>>124967554
I like it but it's a bit too immature at the times as far as how the MC handles himself around women. It's just the typical otaku autism relatability stuff we see in ever show. I'll give the story a chance to raise the stakes but right now it's shit and kind of difficult to watch.

Still one of the better shows this season by far. The presentation is good.
