Is this accurate?

This isn't exclusive to anime anon.

EVA is so good (beyond anime, really) that the knee-jerk reactionary hate that's en vogue with 4chan's millennial hipsters becomes their party line
>>
>>134892888
Yes it is, why even ask?

Happened with OPM, will happen again with Dagashi Kashi in a couple weeks.
>>
>>134892888
Yes. /a/ is literally all anime hipster shit.
>>
>taking /a/ seriously
>>
There are 4 types of posters on /a/

The poster who watches anime & reads manga of all genres.

The anime only dumbass who shitposts everywhere

Shitposters who only come here to shitpost

/v/ crossboarders who come everytime a show becomes a meme there like KLK


The reason threads go to shit once an anime is made is because of the 3 latter groups.
>>
>>134892888
Joke's on you, I only watch originals
>>
>>134893360
Dagashi Kashi won't be very popular outside of /a/
>>
Who is /a/?
>>
>>134893360
OPM was always shit.
>>
>>134893300
Eva was always shallow as fuck. Their cancerous fanbase is also the worst. They're the only faggots that spread their cancer through other boards.
>>
>>134893875
uh that's 5 types
>>
>>134892888
yeah
>>
>>134892888
Just maybe there are people on /a/ with different opinions, you stupid fuck.
>>
>>134892888
OPM is trash
>>
>>134892888
Pretty much.
That's why manga adaptation thread are trash.
Originals are the best.

>>134897100
Umaru too
>>
>>134895542
What? Can you even count?
>>
>>134892888
It's because /a/ is not one person.

The people who dislike a show are always there but often get drowned out by the fans. When a show dies down in popularity the relatively few threads are either people watching it for the first time and enjoying it, thread dies because there's nothing there new to talk about, or people watching it for the first time and hating it, which pisses off the legions of fans who liked it turning it into a flame war throwing shit around, keeping the thread alive longer and drawing attention to it.

You just get more people who hate it afterwards that didn't care for it before because any popular show gets spammed here. That and the overall quality of discussion turning into dog shit makes people who liked the series but don't want to deal with idiots on a much more regular bases leave.

Well if you're that eager to know more about me, I have spent varying amounts of time in /a/, /b/, /e/, /gif/, /hr/, /v/, /r9k/, /ck/, /co/, /lit/, /tg/, and /wsg/. I don't think I really feel like limiting the boards I visit because some poor little weeb is having his superiority complex threatened though.
>>
>>134900735
Are you stupid or something? You crossboarding just makes us feel more superior.
>>
>>134900735
There's nothing wrong with crossboarding.

There is something wrong with posting like a crossboarder.
>>
>>134900735
You're doing a good job of proving how a type 4 acts like, thank you for the study.
>>
>>134900766
Of course it does, why wouldn't you feel superior about limiting your use of this site to one of the top 3 worst boards? It's a truly impressive feat my friend. Tell me all about how wrong my use of this site is.
>>
>>134900735
I'm a crossboarder (not /v/ though) myself but that doesn't mean I have to act like a huge faggot like yourself. Just leave already
>>
>>134900856
No thanks, I'd really rather stay and trigger the glorious and cultured denizens of this thread, and enjoy the few threads on this board that are actually good.
>>
>>134900894
But 70% of them are good.
>>
>>134900905
I am happy that you find the average content more satisfying than I do. I do not begrudge you your different tastes.
>>
>>134897100
Fate is well received because its flashy for your average Crunchyroll viewer. Most thread here after it started airing is either (valid) bitching or "lol nasu-shit Fate is VN narutard" shitposting
>>
>>134900990
I wouldn't like Fate series even if it didn't become popular. Really tells you something when a magical girl spinoff with loli yuri is better than the main franchise.
>>
>>134901037

that loli yuri>everything else?
>>
>>134901062
Actually, that's what is preventing me from actually watching it even thought I find it more interesting than the main Fate series.
>>
>>134901037
In terms of anime adaptation, Prisma > Stay Night. At least Prisma manage to adapt its source material correctly, bar a few minor things (well, Herz ending like that is just so that Silverlink can delay 3rei with half a season of SoL is top tier jewing)

>having a problem with puffyness

pleb

although being serious, first season is actually pretty tame (comparatively to the posts seen on /a/), and you just have to stay away from the specials then
>>
>>134901177
Loli isn't the problem, Yuri is.
>>
>>134901105
Prisma is literally just the reader's digest version of Fate though (original = fate route, 2wei = UBW, 3rei = HF).

The loli yuri shit is 90% contained in the SoL, with the other 10% being your typical mahou shojo friendship stuff, so if you're ok with that just skip the non-plot stuffs. By the time 3rei airs it'll all be gone anyway, unless Silverlink add in more to milk the otaku shekels
>>
I don't think /a/ has any kind of standards whatsoever. The amount of sheer shit the threads in this board are is jaw-dropping. But /tv/ easily fits your depiction: as soon as something they liked is popular they say it's reddit or tumblr tier garbage.
>>
>>134901214
Why?
>>
>>134901276
I just don't like it, man. I think it is either repulsive or boring depending on the day I accidentally come upon it.
>>
>>134901309
Sorry, but I think you might be gay
>>
>>134901343
Perhaps I'm looking at it from the wrong angle but it is just two girls making out. I always found it incredibly difficult to masturbate to yuri.
>>
>>134892888
>/a/ loves the source material

No, you and the other people in Showgoeshere's threads loved the source material. The rest of /a/ didn't especially care.

Once the show blew up, the people who previously didn't care started seeing it all over the place, so they become annoyed and started actively hating it.
