When did you realize that it wasn't just a meme and that the Monogatari series is really deep?

why can people never take "stories are a means of entertainment" at face value and always assume everything has to try to have some deeper meaning?
>>
>>134810818
Because they want to view it as art, not a mere story.

Alien 9 had a deeper meaning than what was shown, that doesn't mean the thing in itself was good.

I don't know but it's especially prevalent among anime fans, particularly when it pertains to stories with convoluted writing styles.

>>134810818
Because they'd just be a waste of time.

>enjoying a good story and well developed characters is pointless
I'm not saying subsurface meanings in themselves are always unnecessary, but entertainment can (shockingly) be just entertainment sometimes.

>I'm a philistine who can't appreciate beautiful or enjoyable things without stroking his ego by justifying entertainment with meaning

>>134811439
I can appreciate anything of quality.
What I don't appreciate are anti-art sentiments that encourage hivemindedness.

Anime is a visual and audio medium. Such medium require more than just meaning, they require a good execution most of all. It can have all the meaning in the world, but if the execution is shit, it will not be worth anything.

>>134811292
Good story and well-developed characters by themselves mean that probably there's some subsurface meaning in the whole deal. Otherwise the story will fall flat, and the characters won't feel like real humans.

Because it's not. Their is a limit to how much talking can be in a show before it leaves a bad impression.. Monogatari does just that! not only is the anime bad the LN is shit too. I'm so glad the natives at 2chan hate it!!

>>134809001
At Nekomonogatari. But that's just because cat is probably the best written character in the franchise.

High School DxD is deeper than Monogatari.

I totally get enjoying things just for entertainment but people I talk to about the series act like its "2deep4u" and then only explain they like it because its comfy or the girls are nice or something shallow.

I'm starting to get the sense some of its less hard core shitposting fans have started to get tired of it in recent seasons for that very reason. I've also gotten the sense it does have its share of detractors but they just care so little that they never bother to tune in comment on it.
