>Unironically loves the Berserk: Golden Age Movies.
Haven't read the manga yet, Golden Age was my introduction to Berserk. Been watching the older anime that came out in the 90's. Is WAY better than The Golden Age trilogy. Still love the movies.
Side note, The Black Swordsman comes out today, doesn't look great, still looking forward to watching it all the same.
The fact that Wani wants to make money off of a product is totally acceptable, and bitching about what Jewcob did to get in bed with them is just sore booty from people who lost something they never really had in the first place.
The fact that people who don't want to pay for hentai find alternative ways around paying for it instead of simply not reading it proves that there is massive entitlement mentality involved, and arguably proves actual theft is occurring.
>>143533810
To their credit, it's kind of like when Steam tried to charge money for mods for Skyrim. When you're used to getting something for free and then are expected to pay for it, people aren't exactly going to line up to thank you for it.
That said, you're also totally right.

watching fujo garbage....
anon...
I watched the entirety of Sakura Trick, expecting the plot to go somewhere. It's a thuddingly stupid anime but the kiss scenes were enough to keep me coming back.
>>143534069
I didn't know what fujos were when I first watched it and didn't realize the subtext is usually interpreted as homolust. It's much better if you assume it's just about power dynamics without sexual tension.
>>143534069
Moe are worse than fujo in general

99% of anime is shit and everything /a/ likes doesn't fall into that 1%
The only anime adaptions that are worth watching are SOL shows. Adaptions of action shows are ruining the industry.
>>143534261
Even SOL adaptations are worthless. I no longer watch anything that isn't either original content or distinctly experimental.
>>143533869
But E7 has one of the best soundtracks ever, I see no issue with this
NGE+EoE is the best anime of all time
This should at least trigger 50% of the board
Sword Art Online isn't that bad (its not good) and people should get over the dumb LNfag hype.
Akame ga Kill does its gimmick well and the people who get salty about it should learn their monkey's paw wishes for a generic shonen where people die was gonna blow up in their face. Its still bad though.
95% of SOLs are only liked to fit in.

I think there actually are a few anime out there that are better in the english dub than native Japanese. Space Dandy is the first example that comes to mind, but I actually think Death Note was better too, even though it was mostly just for Juliani's performance.
Hamstershit was definitely the worst and most unfunny moeblob SOL anime to date. The protag is not cute or charming in any way and doesn't have any redeeming qualities. I don't get why people liked that show.
Aku no Hana was underrated.

>>143533198
Personally, I find Imaishi's work to be even more directionless where the plots always fall apart. They're all predictable and are only praised because of how loud (literally and figuratively) they are.
I liked the Rozen Maiden dub.

>Elfen Lied is a fantastic manga series and would have been a masterpiece of an anime adaptation if only it was produced by one of the better studios.
>Kiznaiver is offensively bad and whoever wrote it needs to quit their career for good.
>PASWG had more interesting things to say about society than Psycho Pass.
>>143536052
Any kind of elfen lied praise triggers me hard

It's an action wish-fulfilment-harem fetish-fuel series with a subplot about the evolutionary future of mankind. Oh, and it has Bando. You've gotta love Bando.
>>143536286
You can interpret anything into it that you wish, it doesn't get any less shallow because of it.
If I want to fap to gore I go on gurochan.
>>143536337
>You can interpret anything into it that you wish
I'm honestly not reaching by mentioning that subplot. If I brought up its themes around the morality surrounding gun control then I'd be starting to interpret a little too hard.
>>143536363
It may be in there, but that's like saying Bioshock Infinite had a proper sub plot about racism
>>143533198
>mushishi is boring
Doesn't everyone think that though? It's literally just "le white haired no emotions man" going around and being smarter than everyone else. Almost like CGCGT without the cute girls OR the cute things. I have come to the conclusion that, if you like it, then you are either a female, or a homosexual. I mean there's nothing inherently wrong with either, but at least admit it.
>>143536471
doesn't make it wrong
>>143536578
Just because you are correct doesn't mean you are right.
>>143536452
I'm a huge fan of slow pretentious borefests, and, honestly, I don't understand why /a/ likes Mushishi. I think it's boring, and that's something I almost never say. No one's ever been bothered to explain to me why it's good either, they just insult me. Which is fine, I do the same for other shows, but still. I just don't get it.
If it wasn't for the animation,One Punch Man would be garbage
>>143536734
Ohh I wish it looked like the web comic.
>>143536774
I'm actually really excited about the visual direction going on with Mob, because of that.
Evangelion its pretty fucking pretentious and boring sometimes. I somewhat get the hype but fuck off.
>>143534412
The only good SoLs are Hidamari Sketch and NNB.
K-On is ass.
Yuyushiki is pure shit along with every series like it.
>>143536670
Personally, I like it because it enables fantasies.
Living a frugal vagabond life throughout the countryside, with the added side of supernatural shenanigans - but the shenanigans are tame for the most part, and the music, animation, coloring, etc. all serve to comfort someone who uses anime to escape from their busy reality. Gives a sense of peace. Ginko being knowledgeable and 90% aware of whatever mushi shit is going on gives a sense of being in control.
I don't even watch it for the 'deeper meanings' or whatever, I just think it's a comforting show that looks really nice.
Some of the concepts are really pretty and enjoyable, too. I think my favorite was the first episode with the boy who could see mushishi, and whatever he drew with his left (right?) hand took form.
It's a nice show. It's not for everybody. Most anime are like that, because people's taste and what they want varies.
Eva 3.33 is a great film and if you hate it you are a pleb that got rused by master Anno himself

Entry level doesn't mean an anime is bad, it just means its something that has exposure outside of Japan and is more likely to appeal to people who aren't already fans of anime. Cowboy Bebop is the epitome of entry level and its still great.
>>143536981
Yes, there are almost no good anime so if you have watched that many it means you would gladly spend your time watching garbage so your opinion should not ever be trusted even relating to the good shows you have watched

ARIA is boring and the characters are annoying
I unironically like Kubo's art. The lack of backgrounds never confused or bothered me and I like how Kubo focuses more on the character's designs and expressions instead of intricate backgrounds which do confuse me at times and make certain manga look messy.
Also Orihime is my favorite girl in the series.
>>143537039
This.
but real question
Is NGE entry level or not?
everyone knows it, but many don't bother to understand it.
>>143536452
Mushishi is slow but really good slow anime because i find ginko and and whole anime interesting. And mushishi does have a lot cute girls.

>>143533969
Final episode was great though. It was the other vast majority of the second arc that was really lacking.
>>143533198
Why did you greentext that?
Tatami Galaxy is boring and the payoff isn't worth it.
>>143533198
I would get killed for my preferences like:
Dub > sub
Retro > modern anime
streaming > downloading
I also like Rei Ayanami really much, and consider her character development to be the second most interesting in the show (not as interesting as shinji, but more interesting than misato). I also drop about 2/3 of the shows I watch (I only finish good shows). I drop a show if its: moe, sol, yaoi/yuri, ecchi, new, a light novel/visual novel adaptation, ecchi, a harem, a ecchi battle harem, fighting shows in general, Romance, edgy or comfy.
And the pic related contains all the shows that I finished, but don't like/hate.
So, about 1% of /a/ thinks that everyone (including me) should watch anime as they please, and the other 99% prolly wants to hang me right now?
>>143534280
What about anime original adaptions of existing properties?
>>143537376
>I drop a show if its: moe, sol, yaoi/yuri, ecchi, new, a light novel/visual novel adaptation, ecchi, a harem, a ecchi battle harem, fighting shows in general, Romance, edgy or comfy.

Kyoani a shit.
>>143534014
>>143537039
Speaking of Cowboy Bebop, when I first saw the series Spike was my favorite character and Faye was my least favorite but after rewatching it its the opposite.
Spike is the least interesting character of the main cast. He's superficially cool and works well in the self contained episodes unrelated to his back story but his back story itself is uninteresting and does nothing at all to take advantage of the setting. Its just a standard story of love and revenge in the context of organized crime. Which isn't bad but its nothing special either.
In contrast Faye's back story is something that not only takes advantage of the setting to create a more unique scenario(Faye being a fish out of water as a result of being in cryostasis for a hundred years) but also grounds the setting itself by framing it in a way that is familiar to modern audiences(crippling medical debt as a result of a medical emergency). It also explains her gambling addiction and motivation for working in such a risky field. Her experience with Whitney Hagus also explains her cold and callous attitude towards most people; she longs for connection for the obvious reason that she found herself in a strange unfamiliar world with no loved ones or acquaintances but was manipulated and betrayed by the first person she formed a connection with. This is why it took her so long to warm up to the Bebop crew but also why she ultimately returned and in doing so showed more growth than Spike who couldn't leave the past in the past like Faye could.
Also her tits are great, the best in any anime in that they have the best balance of size, sag, and bounce.
>>143537874
LWA 2 was funded by a collection of people, not a website.

If I really enjoyed the visuals of 2.22 and found it uninsulting plotwise, will 3.33 entertain me? I have heard nothing but bad things about it.
>>143538479
>If I really enjoyed the visuals of 2.22 and found it uninsulting plotwise
If it did, you're already a lost cause in my book.
I don't even want to be 4chan tier rude here, but even the first two are an insult to all characters besides Shinji.
I'd like to say that 3.33 turns up the shitswitch to 11, but for me it's already there.
I wonder if what triggers /v/ also triggers /a/. Let's try.
Final Fantasy VIII is one of the best entries in the franchise and is only hated by memespouting faggots that need being spoonfeed about a shounenesque plot.
>>143538479
>What would you say are good examples?
Not him but I would say Bride's Stories is technically SoL and its great. Granted, its a slice of life in late 19th century Central Asia with an emphasis on romance but the romance is advanced through the SoL element.

>>143538914Okay fine K-ON! was fun, it only gets a pass because it's the only anime my little sister likes right now.
In the end, Luluco wasn't all that impressive.
>>143536670
I'm a literaryfictionfag and, basically, I like Mushishi because it feels like a collection of short stories about nature with just the right amount of poetic imagery to it. Some of the stories lead to multiple interpretations, either using the mushis as symbols or the plot developments to portrait some aspect of human nature. I look for these things in all art forms.
Sure, it's comfy though kinda 'boring' at times (people mistaking boring for slow-paced are the worst), but only people with ADHD or poorly read teens expect any story-driven art media to be filled with IDM songs or exciting events at every second.
I seriously don't understand why anyone would think it's pretentious when it has not a single forced line and the art direction is spot-on.
The best kind of fiction is the kind that allows the viewer to appropriare a given story to create his own universe.
>>143534382
No, because it's true.
>>143539054
This. Fucking THIS. Holy shit anon I couldn't put it into better words if I tried.
>>143538532
Well the reason I enjoyed them is because of the animation, it wasn't trying to be serious or replace the original. It was just fun to see what happened. It doesn't stop the actual writing of the TV series from existing.
>>143534382
No its true
>>143537977
Why did Vincent do this and then just leave?
>>143539054
>Some of the stories lead to multiple interpretations, either using the mushis as symbols or the plot developments to portrait some aspect of human nature. I look for these things in all art forms.
You are literally what OP is complaining about. Mushishi is not deep or a commentary on the human condition, it's about a dude bumming around and showing off how smart he is about ghosts. The very definition of pretentious. Make it slow and dull and the viewer will invent all kinds of interpretations in their head to stop themselves from dying of boredom and convince themselves the experience was worth it.
>>143538970
I know what you're getting at with your original statement.
Cute girls doing cute things is something one shall never underestimate though, stuff like K-ON! and Lucky Star are fine examples that you can do it right as long as the balance fits.
>>143539057
>>143539120
more like yes because it's true.
>>143539112
It's okay if you see it this way I guess, but it forever ruined any kind of merch related to the series and it's virtually impossible to get a good daki of mai waifu now.
It also started a new wave of Red vs Blue faggoty with even worse people basing it partially on the new "interpretations" of Asuka and Rei.
Hanasaku Iroha was fucking boring and accomplished nothing.
Another was alright.
Higurashi and Umineko anime were cancer (VNs are amazing tho')

Even though this is bait, I agree.
>>143539153
I think he was testing her resolve as cliche as that sounds. When he first asks her to come with him she's already in a precarious position and yet she refuses. He essentially threatens her with sexual violence and she still defies him.
Could also be that he doesn't want to cross a certain line. He's okay with coercing her a bit but not with physically forcing himself on her. The one time he did with the kiss he did it to save her life.
>>143536670
I suspect that there are a fair few people who like Mushishi because it gives them ASMR, but they don't know what ASMR is so they don't know how to explain why they like it.
I really enjoyed the dub of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt, same with Space Dandy.
The sub was pretty great too, can't believe that people like to shit on these kind of opinion, watching both is even better.
Berserk is going to become shit in the next years, you can already tell by the digital drawings, and then the story will be shit too.
>>143539170
Sorry, I never said it was deep. It depicts human circumstances without a explicit commentary, like you implied, either (You'd see that kind of crap in all your ganbatte school romcoms).
>Make it slow and dull and the viewer will invent all kinds of interpretations in their head to stop themselves from dying of boredom and convince themselves the experience was worth it
You just described 90% of literature. If an artistic expression enables its viewer to think for themselves, the experience IS worth it by default.
Also, you're a child.
Gainax is a pretty mediocre studio. They created a lot of original works, which is something to be praised for, but the majority of them are decent at best.
Aria's anime is complete garbage. Manga is good.
Speaking of Gainax, Diebuster > Gunbuster
I'm a huge Kyoanifag, and I will happily gobble down anything they make with a shit eating grin on my face.

what you said but switch girls unda pantser with The Monogatari series.
KyoAni did a better job with Free! than K-On! and deserves its financial success with it, and they should stick to making anime with fanservice for women.
I understand Serial Experiments Lain and it's 2deep4u. Out of the just short of 80 unique posters ITT, chances are solid that less than 5 of you understand its mystery, and for the rest of you it's just too much for you to grasp.
>>143534176

Tries to use its artsy style with flashing colours and bizarre camera angles to hide the fact that it has nothing of substance ever going on. Very low tension and dull series. Has occasionally funny/witty banter but that's not enough to save it. 5/10.
>>143539382

You should really watch some more if you think this. Not liking it is okay though, not everybody can get it.
>>143539521
You should read the manga anon, I know that there's a lot of people who got hooked to the series because of the stuff in the beggining, which I admit it was pretty edgy, but in the same volume there's an explanation to that, since it's a really old manga, it was cool to see an explanation of why Guts was so cold to everyone.
Besides, the art is extremely good, I recommend you to read at least the first 13 volumes. Have a nice day anon.

It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't pretend to be anything more than 60% air and 20% ecchi/harem wish fulfilment. Or rather if it's underage fans would stop pretending as such. Still wouldn't say it's the worst. For me, personally it's a toss up between Dragon's balls super, fate stay loli and human hamtaro.
With a close runner up being that anime about monster fuckers.

I recently rewatched S2 and there is literally a chapter where a sailor learns how to invoke some bird wind mushi or something which helps his ship sail faster. Ginko tells said some sailor not to whistle at night because bad things might happen. Sailor whistles and bad things do happen. Ginko confronts the sailor and the sailor keeps whistling and more bad things happen, because in the end, he didn't really care about his family. He was butthurt because his mom/stepmom refused to accept some expensive brooch and only cared about money and living expenses. He decides to stop, preventing further disaster only to never be seen by his peers.
Now, explain to me how you can be so dull to miss stuff and leave it at some bum going around telling people about ghosts.

Nigga you best be not talking about Monster Musume. That one was funny fetish fuel for a specific demographic, and delivered what it promised.
Prison School is a 6/10 at best. Far too much gay shit.
Oshii is a better director than Kon, Anno and pretty much anyone else people might bring up who aren't Miyazaki at his prime.
>>143537150
Kubo is a pretty good artist for a weekly mangaka and it's probably why people have kept reading Bleach this long.
>>143533198
I think people that consider works like Eva, Utena, Lain or Angel's Egg pretentious or meaningless are just insecure, and feel insulted by the fact that they failed to understand a cartoon.
Love Live is actually the superior idol franchise, while IM@S sucks ass.I personally dropped the latter after the very first episode. Girls are ugly and the invisible dude asking questions is a stupid idea.
>>143539918
Funnily enough, that's also the exact episode I was thinking of when I wrote that post, as an example of the most dull and meaningless.

I didn't finish prison school, but what on earth kind of "gay shit" does it have?

More or less. What was interesting and/or meaningful about Utena, btw? I still haven't seen that one, and I loved the other three.
>>143539919
I said runner up. At least it didn't try to be something it wasn't and it didn't shit on a series with some decent entries in it's history like the others I mentioned. Hamster and musume are both pretty shallow but musume still manages to have more likeable characters and better writing.

Saber is worst girl in Fate.
I like english dubs a lot of the time because I don't have harsh judgements about a character's voice unless it's not even fucking close
I hate moe/ecchi/and harem anime but i liked monogatari
utena and penguindrum are master pieces and are my favorite anime

This is you call trolling?
The most important value in animation is the very animation itself. Aspects like plot, characters and themes have all been done better in other mediums. Something like LOGH is worthless in that regards. Basically valuing anime for its story is truly foolish.
Simon (TTGL) is a boring self insert Gary Stu and ruined the entire show.
If a person thinks Miyazaki is overrated then they likely have nothing interesting to say about anime at all.
>>143540352
Overrated and bad are very different anon, Miyazaki gets a perverse amount of western attention compared to any other person you could care to mention.
>>143540183
most people who don't like harem shit wont even watch monogatari, because of nise
is monogatari considered the gateway to harem anime? i always thought it was shows with more action like tenchi muyo or something with less dialogue and more action
If touhou is an anime it would be AOTY.

>>143540263
This isn't triggering anyone, this is just plain retarded.
>>143540242
Nope, it's an objective truth.
Anime should have more girls who are unapologetic in their attraction to men with good looks and/or money like pic related instead of girls who like men "because they're nice".
Death note is the perfect entry level anime in every category
>>143540457
Why would this trigger anyone
I mean sure you can't market that shit as well, but still
>>143540402
It's not the gateway to harem anime, it's the exit. You're correct on the entranceway, but Monogatari is kind of similiar to School Days in a sense that it takes the idea of a harem and makes it quite unnappealing to the viewer.
I mean how many harems can you name where MC picks a girl a few episodes in?

You should have watched up until the meme dog episode so you can get all the bin facebook memes.
>>143540480
i don't think it has quite the same unappealing feel as school days does. the mc was a cunt in school days, and in monogatari he's well praised, even while teasing 13 year old girls and bathing with his loli vampire bitch. araragi gets no punishment for his actions like makoto. the most he gets is a stern talking to from senjou
>>143540589
>should have watched up until the meme dog
I learned the gist of it a short while ago after a few 'best dog' threads.
>>143540475
Because the audience for harem and SoL anime consists of men who want idealized women with low and specific standards that suits them instead of girls like Yuri and Kei who have standards more in line with actual girls
>>143540480
>Whilst I think you're right in terms of raising men without hopelessly idealistic views on women, please don't take away all the hopeless have left.
I see what you're saying and I actually agree but I don't think it goes against what I said. I would much prefer to watch a harem anime where beta self insert-kun wins the hearts of two girls like Kei and Yuri over time via character growth instead of the standard where he has 5 girls throwing themselves at his feet "because he's nice"(i.e. an inoffensive doormat).
>>143540606
>araragi gets no punishment for his actions
How do I know you haven't watched second season and beyond
i hate hisoka in hxh and find him repulsive in every way.
>>143540517
At last! I'm not alone anymore!
I think shonen manga are trash especially the ones published on WSJ. None of them will not turn shit. The big 3 are shit a long time ago. New manga are going to get the editors treatment and turned to shit. Shonen manga is a mistake.
>>143540622
>Because the audience for harem and SoL anime consists of men who want idealized women with low and specific standards that suits them instead of girls like Yuri and Kei who have standards more in line with actual girls
This changed over time in most genres didn't it?
I mean Sailor Moon for example was fapbait from the very beginning, and even they have standards in men.
>>143540622
What does women with low standards have to do with SoL anime, when there is usually no guys at all?
Yuri anime is to men as yaoi anime is to girls:
Dumb, pandering, fap-baiting bullshit.
>>143540628
In Second Season, Nadeko doesn't try to kill Araragi because he is trying to romance her, in fact he isn't trying at all. Even then he gets saved by Senjou and Kaiki, and doesn't even know what's happening. He faces almost no real consequence of his actions. It's just petty jealousy on Nadeko's part

>>143540734
>This changed over time in most genres didn't it?
Yes and I prefer it when the girls were somewhat more realistic in certain aspects of their personality.
>>143540761
The standard bit applies to the harem and not really the SoL so you're right on that. I could've said it better.
>>143540788
He attracts a cute girl by accident, who then goes mad with desire and tries to kill him.
When he says he wants to keep seeing her and teasing a relationship with her, Kaiki says "No you faggot, if you aren't going to date her, then don't raise her hopes by being so nice, it's healthier to leave her alone."
This goes against most other harems where the ideal course is to be nice to all the girls and reap the rewards of their gentle attraction.
Kill la Kill was good. Like better than 95 percent of the recent seasonal shit.
>>143540909
I can't say it's his fault for being nice to a girl who goes yandere
but, i suppose that is true, he faces a lot more trouble than most harem mcs
Lolis are shit. Thank god their era are long gone.
Traps are fucking gay. Futa with balls are not.
Slayers is a very boring anime.

I just don't understand why people like Little Witch Academia so much. The animation is pretty good, but everything else is entirely generic and uninteresting. What makes it good, rather than just boring shit made for children?

Can't remember which episodes, but it really went down the shitter when Ryuko turned evil.
I think what bothers me the most about KLK though is that all the characters besides Satsuki are very badly developed writing wise.
Especially Ryuko is a very bland protagonist.
But still, KLK is probably a 7 to me, and especially the first few episodes are borderline perfect.
>>143541534
>I just don't understand why people like Little Witch Academia so much.
It's a solid story with a cast of unique and memorable characters which manages to establish a setting, create an interesting conflict, then reach a satisfying resolution all within a half hour.
It feels like an epic movie with all the fluff cut out. Extraordinarily good pacing, and has a few cute little details that make repeat viewings enjoyable.
In short, it's a lot of fun wrapped up in a tiny package, and there's a lot of people who like that sort of thing.
>>143541534
I agree with you. I thought it was gonna be great because of all the hype it had, but it was pretty boring.
NTR is the thinking man's fetish. Every anime, manga, LN, and VN would be 10 times better if it has NTR as a main plot or a twist.
Prove me wrong. I bet you can't.
>>143541812
The problem is that I've seen enough "solid stories", as I'm sure everybody else has. Unless the presentation has some unique flair to it I really have a hard time understanding why people would pick this as particularly good above just about anything else.
None of it was actually unique enough to be memorable at all, I have no clue how you found the characters or conflict interesting. I would've long forgotten about it if people didn't keep talking about it for reasons I can't understand even when you spell them out like that. I just don't see it, and I've watched both episodes twice in an attempt to actually learn to like it.
Eureka seven is fucking awful, it's the most generic shounen ever and I have no idea why /a/ latches on to it
YYH is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> HxH
It's not even close. I don't care about "muh subversive themes" or "le makes you think XD" meme. People think that just because it does things differently that automatically means it's good. It;'s not. YYH plays the conventional tropes of Shounen fucking masterfully, and aside from Kurapika, has a far superior Main 4 to HxH.
>>143541891
Enjoying suffering is the sign of someone who's mentally ill, not the sign of intellectual prowess.
NTR is the fetish people turn to when they've watched so damn much fluffy crap that they've overloaded their brains and need something sad and/or nauseating to allow themselves to feel something once again.
In short, only people who confuse overexposure to a medium with intellect would be stupid enough to mistaken NTR for a thinking man's fetish.

Episodes 1-15 were amazing(everything up to the end of the tri-school raid), 10/10 for me. The characters and setting all worked. After that I think it got too serious and the world building and plot went in a direction I didn't care for. I still enjoyed it because by then I had grown to love the characters but it was noticeably worse and I'd rate those episodes a 6/10.
