So, Exactly opposite of what /a/ has been whining about for ages, but:
>all male characters who are bros
>Fucking fujobait shit, I'm telling you!
You guys just don't know how to enjoy it when good things happen, huh?
you're saying it isn't fujo bait? fujos will fujo
doesn't mean it's bad
>joker shit
>original anime
kek. Also show is shit.
Someone post the anime insults list.
>>139734983
Yeah OK, my bad.
Still, it's a proper novel, not light-novel shit.
/a/ is absolutely pants on head retarded when it comes to anything related to fujos. They have no clue what fujos like in a series, or how a fujo audience affects the content. It's very possible that they could latch onto Joker Game, but that doesn't mean anything about it will be gay, or that there will be manservice, or that there's literally anything that separates it from the norm except the gender balance of the cast being in favor of males.
>>139734955
>all male characters who are bros
I give it four episodes before they start killing eachother
>>139734981
Because these days on /a/, all male cast = fujobait.
>>139734955
>Exactly opposite of what /a/ has been whining about for ages,
>/a/
I think you are confusing /a/ with /v/, you mananime dork.
So? What's good about it so far? Because it hasn't really been exactly engaging outside of its established theme/setting and engrish up the ass.
And no, reasons like 'it isn't moeshit', 'it isn't set in highschool', 'it's not a harem','non of them are teenage girls' , and shit like that doesn't count.
>>139735197
On the other hand, what's so bad about it? OP is addressing people prematurely shitting all over it for being 'fujoshit'. It's an interesting premise, with promising source material since it's an actual novel.
>>139734955
Fujo's will depend or overrate things here in /a/.
>>139735232
On the flip side, I also don't like people like to immediately praise a show on the sheer defense that it's 'different' --- whatever that means. God knows that's the only reason Aku no Hana got praised by all the hipster contrarians out there.
>>139734955
>>all male characters
Its automatically a fujocrap.
Why even bother, fucking dropped it into the trash.
>>139735269
Aku no Hana was only good because it was punk.
>>139735269
Oh come on, we all know that this industry is flooded with cute haremshit because it sells like crazy. When something tries to break that status quo, even if they don't hit it out of the park, it's still commendable.
>>139735111
But that's mostly true.
Your problem comes from the misconception that fujo bait means bad.
>>139735269
I think some anons are jumping the gun too but being cautiously optimistic based on it being relatively unique so far is definitely a step up on declaring everything with a male cast fujobait.
/a/ is retarded, hadn't you noticed?
>>139735351
My problem comes from people deriding a show simply because they think it's fujobait.
Before today, that's all I ever see in previous threads of this show.
>>139735351
>the misconception that fujo bait means bad.
Considering how overtly sexual and tasteless otaku pandering is, it's not surprising they assume fujobait to be the same. They watch all those atrocious harems and see countless panty shots and cow tits and cardboard cutout female archetypes, and think that fujobait must be the same but with male characters.
>>139735388
>My problem comes from people deriding a show simply because [stupid reasons]
What the fuck are you doing on /a/.
That's 70% of what we do.
>>139735388
Funny. I've mostly been seeing people praising the show. Maybe you're a bit sensitive to the comments calling it fujoshit.
I'd be cautious and stick to usual three episode rule. You can never tell if a show is going to be any good based solely on the first episode and its premise.
Jokes on you I don't give a shit what /a/ thinks.
I have the magical ability to form my own opinion
>>139735411
There are degrees of toleration.
This recent trend of NTR and fujobait shit is crazy
>>139735065
I can distinguish fujobait easily and precisely.
It's exactly what I like, but gender-reversed.
>inb4 my tastes are shitthey are
>>139735419
It seems to be getting a lot more common that people will dismiss series as fujoshit though. Maybe Osomatsu has made people paranoid about accidentally watching something gay
>>139734955
>competent adult characters
>wartime japan with honorabu suzuki character
yeah, no, these 'adults' are just as shit as the high schoolers. also the dialogue is dick cheese.
>>139735525
Wait, Osomatsu is gay?
I mean, I only watched the first 3 eps. Still, how the hell is that retro gag anime gay?
>>139734955
fujoshit
>>139734955
It's the curse of our time.
>>139735550
>wartime japan with honorabu suzuki character
I hope you realize that's the whole idea of the character, and he's mocked by virtually everyone for being honorabu samurai in a fucking spy agency.
/a/ will scream fujoshit at anything with a heavy male dominance.
It doesn't even matter, JG had one of the best first episodes this season though.
Most gay anime is shit, whether it's with boys or girls. Most of them just seem to focus on the gay than on the relationship.
Eh. Aside from the setting, there's really nothing that's making me want to watch this except maybe the offchance of all of them getting killed. I stopped getting hyped for something just because it's not the usual shit we get fuck knows how long ago.
Rakugo was nice. That kept it together the entire way.
But I also remember Gangsta. Complete fucking dogshit.
I think the /a/ fujos operate slightly differently to the japanese fujos and have slightly different tastes.
So, /a/'s fujos might very well latch onto this series.
>>139735630
It's not even that. Most of the time it's just alarmist bullshit the moment you have prominent male characters in the show and it's not a harem or something. People were screaming FAVAROOO simulator was a fujoshit show at first, too.
>>139734955
Different and good are not the same.
>So, Exactly opposite of what /a/ has been whining about for ages, but:
Bullshit, we like that stuff. It's /v/ and /co/ who whine about that and are unable to handle the fujobait.
>>139735567
Nah, I should rephrase- they're paranoid about accidentally watching something fujos like.
It's not gay, aside from a couple of jokes about it in the second cour.
>>139735676
I'd go out on a limb and say there's no /a/ fujo. At best it's people pretending, but it doesn't correlate to Japanese notion of what fujo is.
>>139734955
>>competent, adult characters
>>non-high-school settings
>>adults who smoke and drink and play cards
>>no magic battle haremshit.
Coming this Summer.
>>139735665
>Most gay anime is shit,
Fujo bait doesn't mean gay, just like girls-only SOL anime aren't necessarily gay.
>it appeals to fujos so it's shit regardless of the content
/a/'s logic everyone.
this show is bad
>>139735676
This. If anything, nip fujos actually latch on to shit /a/ never talks about. Fucking Hoozuki came in and rocked the sales threads when it got released. Believe me, the shit fujos are most hyped for this season is actually Tanaka-kun.
And that show isn't even fujobait in the most purile meaning of the word.
>>139735743
>I'd go out on a limb and say there's no /a/ fujo.
You should lurk a bit more and find out whatit's timefor.
>>139735743
The fuck kind of separate species do you think Japanese people are? Western girls have been slash shipping forever and when they do it with anime/manga, they're fujos.
>>139735765
I wouldn't call those gay. >>139735765
>>139735743
Look, if we use the correct definition of fujoshi, "girl who like BL", than I guarantee you there are fujoshi on /a/.
>>139735802
>the shit fujos are most hyped for this season is actually Tanaka-kun.
I can see it.
>>139735802
I was so pleasantly surprised when I realized how popular Hoozuki is, people barely ever talk about it for some reason.
Tanaka kun has been talked about in the homo thread etc, but the manga is a snooze so I don't think people are all that excited.
>>139735735
>they're paranoid about accidentally watching something fujos like.
I guess they're extremely insecure. Fitting, given this is /a/.
>>139735802
Hoozuki was a great show.
>>139735748
Based New Game!
Really hope this show doesn't turn gay. I liked the first episode and don't want to have to drop it.
>>139735748
>>139735966
This, a proper mature anime for mature people, unlike the fujobait in OP
>>139735982
Miyoshi and Sakuma will fuck.
>>139735802
>>139735914
Hoozuki was not talked a lot here also because it's extremely asian/japanese in his setting, it's hard for a western fan to care about it
I can't help thinking the introduction was spoiled by how hamfisted the exposition was.
>>139735934
>Fitting, given this is /a/.
Not really. We used to be a bunch of social rejects. Being perverted wasn't a requirement to post on /a/ (or 4chan as a whole), but it was generally assumed that everybody was a filthy freak with a list of fetishes longer than a dragon dildo, dragon dildos often being ON the list.
This was our hideout. There was no point in insulting somebody for the deranged stuff he did to get off. Doing so only marked you as an outsider. We had circlejerks to Boku no Pico and we had circlejerks just to each other.
We were having fun.
The homophobia was introduced only by newfags who were never actual outcasts and who weren't looking for a hideout but just for a fun community.
>>139736024
I don't think that's a problem, people love SZS for example even though the manga requires pages of explanations on the Japanese cultural references. Some series just don't catch on, and it wasn't a amazing despite being pretty funny.
>>139734955
>competent, adult characters
>non-high-school settings

>no magic battle haremshit.
>all male characters
sounds gay af honestly
i'm happy with high school romcoms, thanks
no one watches anime expecting good writing and deep character interactions
i want to escape from reality and be entertained by cute girls doing cute things in a bright and fantastic world
>>139735351
Pretty much this.
Some fujobaity shows like T&B and SamFlam are quite enjoyable. Moreso than your regular haremshit.
>>139735087
They already tried to kill mikata-no-seigi-kun in the first episode.
>>139735748
Looks like moeshit famalam
>>139737345
It's not, it's a brutal and realistic depiction of how having a job is.
>>139734955
>not enjoying all sorts of anime instead of limiting yourself for arbitrary reasons
Wait is this show going to be apologetic for the nips on behalf of their WWII allegiance or something?
That would be slightly interestingnot interesting enough to make me watch it though
>>139734955
>>competent, adult characters
>>non-high-school settings
>>adults who smoke and drink and play cards
>>no magic battle haremshit
This is going to seel like shit. It has an interesting premise and the first episode was pretty good though.
Its actuallygoodI liked it when they showed that the spies don't give a fuck about Japan winning the war, rather, they cared about self preservation, and the interests of Japan even if Japan lost the war
>>139737546
It's too early to say.
>>139736258
How the fuck is SamFlam fujobait?
>>139738335
Wow. Either a newfag, a troll or a crossboarder.
