I can't take it seriously when anime tries using these goofy, retarded looking designs to tell a serious story. Like, am I supposed to feel like this is actually serious?
>>
>>275173179
Same, Assassination Classroom is massively OR it isn't that good. Why would you feel sorry for a non human looking character
>>
>>275173179
>anon can only take things at face value
You might just be retarded. Everyone else manages just fine.

I hope you're just samefagging. Otherwise that means there are two people on this board that don't have higher brain function.

Ansatsu Kyoushitsu was good, but you were supposed to feel emotional about the students more than the teacher. Rewatch it in a few years when you're older.

How am I supposed to take it seriously when the character designs are the exact opposite of series? For example, Unicorn Warriors Eternal? One of the biggest, if not the biggest complaint from audiences, was the tonal mismatch between the Popeye cartoon style and the seriousness of the story it attempted to tell. Cartoons and cartoonish motion are so easily interpreted as "fun" or "funny" by the common person, that it's next to impossible to make someone take it with complete seriousness. Cartoons are at their core, caricatures. And caricatures are at their core, exaggerations for the purpose of amusement and mockery. Or in other words, fun/funny. It's like composing a song about the struggles of life but using the slide whistle, xylophone, bells and kazoo. Yes they are instruments technically. But you can't realistically expect someone to take a serious song seriously when it's using audio tones that are, by their nature, lighthearted. That by their nature, elicit a primal emotional reaction from us that is contrary to the emotional tone you intended.

all of these are light hearted action-comedy series targeted towards children with some dramatic moments inter-spliced here and there

There's plenty of super serious seinen that has retarded looking designs too.

One Piece is made for autists. Colorful, overly repetitive, cartoony characters.

Autists got good taste then

You fucking retarded or something? Oda relishes in making visually unique characters

More like visual nonsense. This is not even mentioning the cluttered pages.

Everything I've listed here are all very common criticisms of One Piece.

That's not how you spell "nitpicks made by people too retarded for a shounen manga"

Here's some of his more blatant ones from las year. There are certain words he uses constantly, like "tonal dissonance".
One of his favorite things to do is bring up western media like Popeye and Sonic the Hedgehog in his arguments.

You (I assume it's you) have a nonsensical argument. There's not much to refute

No, it's basic stuff about how an art style impacts tone.

Your argument is that you can't tell a serious story with a more whimsical art style. That's patently false. It's a (You) problem. Many people watched Bambi's mom and King Mufasa die in some very cartoony looking Disney movies about talking animals and those scenes remained with them forever.
That said, kill yourself, nigger.
>>
>>275177670
There's a difference between Bambi's mom dying and a stripper getting raped to death with a bladed dildo like in se7en. Again, are you autistic?
>>
>>275177742
>There's a difference
I'm sure there is. What's your point, faggot?
>>
>>275177798
You can't really depict what happened in 7 with that type of art style you're describing without it looking horribly ridiculous and laughable.
>>
>>275178242
There is a tangible difference in how the viewer will perceive the gravity of the events, yes. That doesn't mean nothing onscreen can be taken seriously.
>>
>>275178440
So you agree that the art style effects tone; thus proving the argument?

Your argument goes beyond that into the territory of niggerliciousness, which is why I called you a nigger for believing it and forcing it on us for years (multiple) on end.

How about actually refuting the argument?

No I think that's the case with most people.

275179807
Then things like TP Bon would not include blood in them because a creator's job is to know what an audience is and is not willing to accept.
>>
>>275179871
Nobody said the creator had to do anything. Just that the audience won't take it seriously.
>>
275179899
The creator's job is to know what the audience will or will not take seriously. Else they wouldn't be successful, and their projects wouldn't be given the okay by producers or any of the higher-up creatives. You are a nigger.

If you can't take a story seriously because of some goofy designs, that's on you. Most non-retarded people can.
>>
>>275173179
I can take it seriously just fine
For me, it's just jarring to see character designs that look like they're from a burgermutt Cartoon Network show in my anime

I can take Ass Class a million times more serious than one piece. I mean look at pic rel and tell me this shit didn't look dumb. It turned what was supposed to be a sad moment into a hilarious one
>>
>>275180285
Some things hits harder precisely because they have tonal dissonance. The death of these robots would not have the same implications or weight if they looked like regular humans.
The whole point is that it plays on the watcher/player's empathy for things that looks like a trash mob NPC.
You cannot simply discard it by saying "tonal dissonance". Being unable to understand this simple thing is a sign of autism.
>>
>>275180392
It's not his inability to understand it. It's his inability to conceive of other people thinking differently from him.
>>
>>275180285
If those were impediments, then Bambi's mother death would be laughable by most due to
>tonal dissonance
and
>whiplash
But it's not, because these things are not concepts that stops a story from being conveyed to the audience.
>>
>>275180423
Yeah, by simple thing I meant the encompassing concept of how different things can affect different people in different ways.

This one seems to be a shill for dying western media.

Just as admit that you're autistic OP

Koro sensei is supposed to look not-serious. He explicitly says he chose a form that was as harmless-looking as possible.

Do you also feel incapable of empathy when toys from toy story show emotion? Or in animated movies, do you find it impossible to feel emotional about animals, monsters, or a toaster go through emotional discourse?
>>
>>275182739
I don't understand why people think this is some type of giant generation psyop thing when the reality is that many people simply can't take animated stories seriously. There are many people that simply cannot relate to characters that are drawn and animated instead of being real people. This mindset is far more common than you think.
>>
>>275180235
I love these little fellas.

>>275183192
>some type of giant generation psyop thing
No one said that, it's just autism. Not even joking.
>>
>>275184205
The other way around. Autistics like the stuff I'm criticizing.
>>
yes

>itt: my psychosis is more valid than your psychosis

That's because you're a faggot with the mental maturity of a 7 year old smartphone addict. Characters being consumed with grief aren't funny but the fact you think so shows how you're somehow too immature for a fucking childrens' manga

AssClass at least justifies it as him giving himself a retarded face so his disgusting body comes across as goofy instead of horrifying. He's the only thing in his series that looks like that. It's not like the other two where weird things are just walking around.
