What did this series offer besides a slightly calming atmosphere? Nothing. This anime is basically garbage and a slice of life done incorrectly. I dropped it at episode six and started Squid girl and I honestly don't think I've ever made a better anime related decision in my entire life. Just because an anime is a slice of life doesn't give it a pass on being boring which we all know deep in our hearts this anime is. The only reason anybody watches it is because of the girls.

"Your anime sucks" isn't an argument. It's an unjustified opinion parading as fact. It's hollow and dishonest.

"You're anime sucks" is all of that but with some laughable stupidity on top.

I don't need to provide anything of substance in rebuttal against something that doesn't even qualify as an honest opinion, let alone a justified one.

ED is mainly used for tracking lolcows. Even great anime is often only listed there because of the unintentional autism it inspires, rather than the content of the series itself.
>And how about the fact I dropped this fucking series because all the jokes are literally clones from other series and even Harry Potter.
Most of Flying Witch was about seeing how two vastly different cultures collided in a friendly and positive way, as each of them learned more about the daily life of the other. Also drug jokes, cooking, and scenery porn.

You're complaining about a series being desperate to hold your attention yet simultaneously complaining that it's not even trying to hold your attention. You don't even seem to know what you want from it. Go watch some fast-paced shounen series instead kiddo. I'd recommend Code Geass.
>This show is just bad any way you look at it.
Nah, you're just trying to hold it up to some bizarre and nonsensical standard brought about by a combination of your extreme desire for hard escapism and an inability to handle events which represent the tension of day-to-day events as opposed to earth-shattering ones. SoL just isn't for you anon.

You're so incapable of justifying your opinion that all you can manage to do is pretend it's an obvious fact. Here's the thing: every other anon reading this sees straight through that bullshit pretense of yours. You're only fooling yourself.

Apparently you can't, because when you actually tried to discuss it in your last post and I responded to that, you were so overwhelmed that you decided to dismiss my response as being 'too smart'.

You barely started to actually go on about it and when you did: you failed to remember what actually happened in the scenes you used as examples and you complained about it not meeting two contradictory ideals.

It was fun responding to your post for that brief moment where you actually tried to say something about the series in question using an example. Well done for that at least.

>well-developed

Anon, I liked Flying Witch myself, but I really don't see where any development occurred. There was no conflict to push the characters anywhere. Chinatsu just experienced/learned some facts about witches every now and then as Makoto trained offscreen to ride her broom and learned some new witch techniques. They acquired new information, but nothing about their personalities was exposed in these easygoing settings beyond general amiability and a trope here or there. I'd hesitate to say they developed.

It's more that everything you needed to know about the characters was presented to you within the first few episodes. Then you got to see how they react with those trait sets in various settings. Their personalities and outlook on life did not have any significant changes beyond more interest in witches.
>>
>>143530005
>nothing about their personalities was exposed in these easygoing settings beyond general amiability and a trope here or there.
Character development exists outside of the presence of adversity anon. China's budding enthusiasm for witch-related things, Akane's rowdy drunken boisterousness, or Kei's stoicism and calmness, for a few examples, were all things which became more clearly defined as the series progressed.
>>
>>143529784
>well-developed
The characters can all be summarized by 2 or 3 points and they never change or show any depth of character. How delusional can you be to make this shit up?

Eh. I kept seeing people praise it, and I see people praise it even more now that it's over, but it really wasn't anything special. It was mostly just boring. And no, not all SoL shows are boring, but when the slice of life is lifeless, it's a snoozefest. I like the animation, and the OP has a charm to it, but there were better anime this season. Well, one at least. Macross delta may have some flaws, but it was otherwise very well done. The music of course, especially the OP which I think is OP of the season, The Top Gun jet dueling, the girls, who were better and more interesting than the girls in Flying Witch, and the characters in general.

I know people like Flying Witch, and I can sort of see the appeal, but I think one of the reasons /a/ like SoLs, apart from the therapeutic aspect, is that by doing basically nothing, they avoid fuck ups. This way the anime can be said to be flawless. But that mentality is itself flawed. Not trying is just as bad, if not worse, than failing. The anime therefore IS flawed because it didn't try. It just was, it sat there and existed and showed people performing boring acts and occasionally attempting some kind of extremely low energy humor. So, while it has no other flaws, the biggest flaw in a SoL show is that it doesn't try at all. Though, I suppose it would make sense that /a/ likes best anime which don't try at all, because it reflects themselves.

tl,dr: Playing it safe and doing nothing is a flaw in itself, and is much worse than having a flawed but fun and exciting show.

>>143530230
Most of the people praising this shit are newfags who just only recently left shonenshit.
They were told to watch some SoL but since they are so gay they cant stand an all cute girls cast with a generic self insert male mc, so they just latched onto this instead.
It doesnt even have good scenery, music or good characters, and fails completely on the comedy part.
Its not comfy, its boring.
>>
>>143530230
>one of the reasons /a/ like SoLs, apart from the therapeutic aspect, is that by doing basically nothing, they avoid fuck ups
That's not an appeal of SoL at all, so your critique of it isn't relevant to the discussion.

>>143530084
>The characters can all be summarized by 2 or 3 points
Every character theoretically can.
>and they never change
Don't confuse change with development. A character remaining the same in different circumstances can be more interesting than that circumstance evoking change in them.
>or show any depth of character.
A blank negation of a premise isn't an argument.
>>
>>143530083

I mentioned adversity since it's one of the most effective tools to highlight development, and you're correct that development can occur without it. However, I still don't think there was any progression here.

>China's budding enthusiasm for witch-related things
>Akane's rowdy drunken boisterousness
>Kei's stoicism and calmness

From the start her enthusiasm was highlighted in the show. The other traits you mentioned were all present at the start as well. There was never any doubt that she would be interested in witch-related material. Saying that her becoming more interested is character development would be the same as saying something we expected to happen to a character happened. It's a logical progression, not a new facet of their personality or thought process being revealed.

It wouldn't surprise me if many people were amazed by this show because they had never, or had only just, started watching different kinds of anime. However, I do think that anons who have been here longer also praise it because they see nothing to criticize. This is a flawed mentality, because having no substance that can become flawed, is also having no substance that can become great, and is one of the worst flaws a show can have.

>>143530366
>since they are so gay they cant stand an all cute girls cast with a generic self insert male mc
Flying Witch arguably is an all cute girls cast with a generic self insert male mc.

>>143530404
>I mentioned adversity since it's one of the most effective tools to highlight development, and you're correct that development can occur without it. However, I still don't think there was any progression here.
Reasonable.

>The other traits you mentioned were all present at the start as well.
Akane at first came across as the confident successful older-sister and only turned out to be a potentially rowdy and disruptive character later on (as she became more comfortable with the idea of treating that house like a home). It was one of the more interesting and natural character changes in that series imho.

Kei always came across as a passive stoic character, but that was only truly highlighted in the scene where Akane thought he had brought over a girlfriend.

The generic self insert male mc is the part that should not be present in a good SoL anime

There is no stretch by which Kei is the main character of the show.

>>143530553
Your opinion is addressed to people who think Flying Witch is good because it 'lacks flaws'. I think Flying Witch is good because it has characters who are both easy to empathise with, and fun to watch the interactions between. It's the natural and subtle way in which their interactions and development occur which allow Flying Witch to be a very immersive (and consequently relaxing) experience. That, along with the beautiful art and soundtrack, is what I most liked about it.

I don't think it's flawless. Episodes 4 and 5 were pretty weak in comparison to later episodes, and it spent too long gradually introducing various characters, but I still think it's an 8/10 overall and one of the best shows of this season.
>>
>>143530230
What? That's the point of shows like Flying Witch/Aria or whatever. It's made with the pure intention to keep the tone and atmosphere subtle. The fact that FW manages to reach the superlative of the iyashikei genre is in itself a peak. You can have a show to try to be a SoL/iyashikei but still fail to deliver the manage, or you can have a show that reaches the superlative of what the genre is all about.

Well, as far as boring goes, that's just your own subjective opinion.
>>
>>143530760
Well, it's possible it just wasn't too my tastes. To be honest I expected more flying, I thought an SoL where the characters flew around as a gimmick or gag would be nice to watch.
>>
>>143530797
>To be honest I expected more flying
Definitely some false advertising right there. Drunken Witch and Furry Witch would have been equally valid titles...
>>
>>143530545

>as she became more comfortable with the idea of treating that house like a home)

I'll give you that one.

I still believe that the primary key to character development involves discovering a new aspect of their personality or growth of some kind in a new direction they hadn't known about before. The others are just continuations or maturation of traits that were introduced or established at the beginning of the show.
>>
>>143530836
Could have called it "Normal Witch" too if the main character is assumed to be the titular one.

I can't believe there are people actually arguing over this show. It's like you guys don't any backlog or anything to watch rather than this shit.

You could argue that it had a better OP than Re:Zero, but Re:Zero's ED blows almost every other Spring 2016 ED out of the water.

I disagree. The last one yes, it was one of the best episodes. But pre-last was fucking garbage. It was the first episode that didn't make me feel comfy. Literally the first episode where I felt like absolutely nothing is going on and the could have cut the episode altogether and nothing would be lost. It's not like other episodes are much different but I didn't feel like questioning what I saw in any other episode. I can't even articulate properly why was that episode as bad as it was. Maybe they went overboard with meaninglessness of actions in this episode, I don't really know.

I watched all 12 episodes, but i have to agree.
Other than a bit of healing there wasn't much that was interesting and the witch universe doesn't feel fleshed out at all, just something to pull from to come up with new stuff, and the more fantastical episodes like the one with the earthfish and flying whale i didn't really like that much, because compared to the first episodes even that felt a bit out of place.

I watched it because it's the only thing this season that kept my interest whatsoever, and i was enjoying myself for the most part, but it doesn't even come close to actual good SoLs. It's a solid 6/10

At least it wasn't as garbage as pic related. Holy shit this season sucked so bad, can't believe i only finished 1 chinese cartoon. That's a new low.
