>ah yes I'm also a huge anime fan>so what's your favorite anime?>Death Note>what else did you watch?>just Death Note and Attack on TitanI fucking hate normalfags. Don't call yourself an anime fan if you haven't watched at least 50 anime.
>>275253242They probably want to connect with you despite their lack of knowledge in anime. It's not a bad thing.
this is exactly the kind of thread a normalfag would make
>>275253242they're just trying to talk to you, you autist
>>275253242can you call yourself a capeshit fan if you never read a comicbook in your life?or say a fan of Real Madrid if you haven't visited Santiago Bernabeu?you can become an anime fan by just watching one anime, unlike you not everyone is unemployed and have bags of time to watch cartoons all day
>>275253312No it hurts my pride as someone who watched over 800 anime excluding shorts.
>>275253242Both of those are better than most of the anime you've watched.
>>275253382Then tell them that you're more than a casual anime fan: >ORE WA ANIME OTAKU DA!!!Then tell them the number of anime you've watched. It will blow their mind and they'll think twice before bringing anime in the conversation again.
>>275253378You sound like the type that finds watching anime to be a chore. An hour of anime a day is three episodes. Do that for a year and you can have watched about ninety twelve episode seasons. Spending an hour a day on a hobby is not unusual and pretty much everyone has time for it. There is absolutely no reason to claim to be an anime fan but also say you don't have time for it because that is a lie.
>>275253467He probably also watches on 2x speed and skips fillers and openings
>>275253242And gaming!
>still in the "watching random garbage" phaseKek
>>275253242>50more like 500
>>275253242you are hating normalfags for the wrong reason. Their superficial knowledge of anime is irrelevant,what they are really guilty of is ruining the whole anime industry by demanding the end of fanservice,lolis and the introduction of the awful and toxic Western globohomo influence
>>275253242>ah yes I'm alsoYour fault for telling others you're into anime in the first place. Be glad they still talk to you after hearing that.
I watched more than 50 anime products, and I am not a fan of anime because of that.
>>275253242Honestly, if anyone asked me what anime I watched irl, I would reply Death Note and maybe Dragon Ball when I was a kid because that's the only two series that I could admit to have watched without feeling shame and embarrassment.
>>275253242>>275254252In fact, I am amazed how normalfags can even admit in public(and even say they like it) they've watched some show like One Piece or Fairy Tail where the main girl spend almost entire arcs wearing nothing but a bikini top or something like Oshi No Ko with outright incestbait.
>Revealing your powerlevel
>>275254252This tbhdesu, I always say hxh because its safe and most know it
>>275254252>>275254345Don't be ashamed of who you are.
Just making this thread makes you more pathetic than him
>>275254345implying western media aren't also filled with fetishes and downright horny stuff
>>275254426Yeah, I also tell I'm a pedophile freak when meeting new acquaintances.
>>275254409I say Frieren because it's #1 on Mal and safehorny.
>>275254426>bro why does your watch list has an alarming number of shows about sisters being sexually attracted to their brothers and wanting to get in their pantsNah, I'm good.
>>275253242Dude likely has 1k watched stuff on his list and just stonewalls your ass because he can read the room and knows social cues.
I’ve only watched 8 anime, none of them are battleshonens, and my favorite anime is Puniru. Am I a normalfag?
>>275253455>>275254252>>275254501Kill yourselves, retarded tourists.
>>275253643I do spend full days just watching anime and this is an absolute requirementI don't usually skip filler episodes, but I do skip scenes with characters I don't like.
>>275254729You are whatever you want to be, including a little girl.
>>275254729Watch Dog Days and then the movie Promare.Then we can talk.
>>275254426terrible advice. whores and cucks should be ashamed of themselves, losers are no different
>>275253997But going above 50 would filter OP himself
>>275254047thisit's not a crime to be a casual if you know your place, the problem is a bunch of them have malevolent social influence
>>275254619>how do you know the plot details of those shows?
What's the anime which is your border before crossing the line with normalfags?That'd be NGE for me but only with certain people, Madoka is just on the other side, never dared speaking about it
>>275254755leaving your parents' basement doesn't make you a tourist anonyou have to leave the country for that
OP has never smelled a vagina
I know a guy who has been into anime and manga as long as me (25ish years); definitely watched more than 50 anime; and yet, they still has incredibly normalfag taste. Gintama is probably his most 'obscure' favourite.
>>275255190Anyway, if you have to deal with these people, you just need to know how much of your power levels you can reveal.
>>275253242Alya didn't say that.
>>275253242Why would you talk about anime among normalfags at all? If you're ever cornered, I wouldn't even consider "Death Note" a safe answer, its better to say something like "not really into it, I think the only one I've seen is Spirited Away" since most normalfags have either seen that one or heard critics glaze and thus subconsciously associate it with being "good" and "cultured".
>>275253242my favorite is girls und panzer anon I don't think people would like me
>>275255059I see it in terms of multiple tiers rather than a binary. I think NGE is a good barrier between two of the middle tiers, but we would have already navigated over a line to get there, and we would need to traverse some additional barriers before I brought up something degenerate.
>wow I love anime!>that's cool, I recommend X and Y>man, 24 episodes each? that's way too long bro...>is it? what's your favorite anime again?>oh one piece I watched all 1000 episodes you should watch it bro it gets good 200 episodes ingenuinely, why are they like this
>>275255541Also, 24 episodes with 20mins each is too much, a 3h movie is also too much, but 6 1hr episodes is "easily binge-watchable"what?
>>275255541>>275255584To be fair it's more "draining" to go into a new story with new characters and a new setting than just watching whatever you already used to for 1000 episodes.
>>275255541Normalfags hate thinking, and avoid anything that could provoke thought at any costIt's an important part of their programing, and is why they are willing to watch the same nothing happens shit over and over
>>275255868> Anime > Thought-provoking
>>275255896Yes, seeing views different to your own can be thought provoking
>>27525324250 is nothing.500 - now we talking.
>>275253242I'll tell people who bring up anime that I watch those shows just so that they don't know don't think I'm some degenerate when I tell them what I really watch.
>>275255896Nta but how do you have that attitude towards a medium and then get mad when people call you out for being a tourist?
>>275253242I pretty much only ever talk about old classics like Lupin the Third and Ashita no Joe on the off chance I end up talking about anime in public. They are the perfect choices to maintain a facade of normalcy amongst normalfags and refined taste amongst casuals.
>>275253242Ah, you're probably trying to connect with us here, unfortunately all you've shown is that you're over 30 and probably too old for image boards.
>>275255959The vast majority of casuals think minus a few exceptions most pre-2000 anime is too old.
>yeah I love anime>I only watch dubs so I can do other stuff while the show plays in the background
>>275256014Same bro. Isn't 1.3 speed great?
>>2752560291.3? I only watch at 2.5+
>>275255541Literally me and my brother. I'd honestly give a try to his battleshounen if they didn't have 300-1500 episodes.
I don't have a problem with 1000+ episode shows, it's just shonenslop is boring even if it was just one cour.
>>275256029>>275256043>SpeedI watch 3 anime at onceIt's like a harem, but with the anime itself
The worst faggots are the ones like OP who have seen 300 anime and suddenly think they're hot shit and above everyone else. Don't worry, this feeling will pass after watching couple hundred more!
>>275253242Obviously you start with basic stuff to test their knowledge, instead of wasting your time asking if they know stuff most people haven't heard of. Meet them on their level if possible.
>>275253242Nigga who caresTake your normalfag shit to them, not here,
>>275253378>or say a fan of Real Madrid if you haven't visited Santiago Bernabeu?You can't. You can call yourself a follower or a customer, but not an actual fan. Non-matchgoing fans should be shamed until they know their place
>hey anon do you watch animenope
>>275253242none of us are Japanese so none of us are anime fans.
>admitting to normalniggers that you watch cartoons
I'm not saying all those Japanese anime titles out loud. >I watched "uhh akureijou wa tensei dame..."
>>275255991Everyone here is 30+, I refuse to believe zoomers are actually capable of finding this site on their Apple devices.
>>275256143Lets be honest though, there may exist 50-100 good anime. Going far beyond that number isn't necessarily an indication you have such good taste, it likely just means you're consuming a lot of trash media.
>>275256481Lets be honest though, you may simply be a dilettante.
>>275256014>>275256029>>275256043>>275256115Get on my level
>>275256511>dated: an admirer or lover of the arts Thanks! You too.
>>275256481Nandemonai
>>275253242tip for an autists here. they are most likely trying to find something common with you. you don't need to show off your power level with them. just ask something about the ones they have mentioned and everything will be daijoubu.
>>275256551It means amateur, as in someone engaging with something out of a love for it rather than because they get paid.
>>275254817>Watch Dog DaysAlways a good idea.
>>275255868>and is why they are willing to watch the same nothing happens shit over and overBut it is literally the opposite, they can't stand SoL.
>>275253242I would never ever admit to watching anything other than most safest and acceptable show. If I ever revealed my actual watchlist in public, my family would probably disown me, the very few friends I've would stop talking to me and my already dire dating history count would probably go from 0 to negative.
ITT: Normalfags complaining about normalfagsDamn dude, you watched an entire FIFTY anime? You're like the king of anime man.
>>275255059For me, I guess K-On and Haruhi? Or have they crossed the mainstream barrier? It's the first I started watching only to see cute girls instead of your generic shounen slop. Haruhi in particular, I only started watching because I saw some ad/trailer where Haruhi was climbing up from a pool in a bikini.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gNHT1uGuSiw
>>275256657It's not showing off your powerleveling but hiding them, tourist. If someone wants to talk to you about anime, you best know the latest shonenslop or you're going to get judged hard.
>>275257435Sounds like you have no friends.
>>275255948Idk man I think I'm a tourist. I need to lurk more to find anime that question man roles in social hierarchy
>>275254885>>275255939>>275257541Amazing how low the reading comprehension in this thread is
>>275257765>spews tourist shitback in the day it was exact opposite and even today you will have hard time with Shonen outside of JJK.
>>275257824Times have changed. I've seen kids in my gym with black clover T-shirt or with MHA phone cover. Either way, you just need to know which anime you can and cannot tell any supposed 'anime fan' you like.
>>275257765I do have a few handful friends who are also weebs but they consume mostly shounenshit like One Piece or JJK or some Shinkai movie which I don't watch so I don't participate when they talk about anime and pretend like I don't know anything about the medium.
>>275257909 meant for >>275257776
>>275257891>black clovernever seen one talk about it >MHA yeah this one's good. I remember my classmates in high school talking about it way before great switch.
>>275257939>>275257909I also have friends that only watch shounen, but I instead speedwatch the stuff so I can talk with them about the shows.Different friendships I guess.
>>275253242>Don't call yourself an anime fan if you haven't watched at least 50 anime.im watching 50 this season
>>275258166what the fuck is going up there negro?
>>275253242Someone tried to connect with anon by sharing their interest in his hobby, and anon's immediate reaction was to make a thread on /a/ to call them a normie.It would be funny if it wasn't sad.
>>275256212watch ? no i only shitpost on /a/
>>275256481But realistically, you won't find those fifty good anime you will like until you watch a few hundred. And no one can make the list of those fifty anime, since everyone probably has a few they love that no one else cares for and a few popular ones they just don't get.
>>275258248i goon through the OPs/EDs
>>275253242Yes apart from now it's JJK, Frieren and Dandadan
>>275253378As my art professor in college said >you don’t have to invent the internal combustion engine to drive a car RIP frfr
>>275258166>2nd Season>3rd Season>2nd Season>Season 2>2nd Season>Sennen Kessen-henThose aren't anime, they are barely seasons MALshitter
>>275258166I don't understand how people can watch so many things at the same time. I'll never watch more than 3-4 currently airing shows at the very most, never mind starting a bunch of finished shows (never mind long running heavy kino masterpieces like LoTGH that require some focus to fully appreciate).
>>275258873That's just your bad time management. It takes from 1h to 2h per day to keep up with everything in a season. It's really not that big of a commitment as you think it is.
>all these betas hiding their powerlevel terrified of what normalfags might thinkI have a Boku no Pico playmat that I regularly bring to MTG tournaments.
>>275258796blame the industry for letting mangakas write more than a season's worth of chapters>>275258873i'll be honest LoTGH has been sitting on my harddrive since ~08. Chuunibyou is a rewatch and i first dropped both vlad love and Gushing Over Magical Girls. i usually let 3-4 episodes build up and watch those back to back vs keeping up to date with everything
>>275253997500 would exclude everyone but like the top 0.5% of viewers, which I get is what you're going for but it doesn't make it any less silly.
>>275255868>programing
>>275259054to be fair a lot of autistic people find it hard to simply watch an episode through
>>275258873They don't "watch" anime they barely consooom it and then they brag with their numbers. I remember when I used to be like that some years ago. Glad those times are over and I actually enjoy anime now and don't treat it like a chore and give a shit about numbers and what others think. Little bro will grow out of it some day too.
>>275259132>I have a Boku no Pico playmat that I regularly bring to MTG tournaments.that is normal for MTG tournaments, want to be subversive? bring a girlfriend(female((over 18)))
>>275259147The anime industry is not responsible for MAL categorizing anime like absolute retards and calling a single season "an anime".
>>275259132they all think you're an ironic weeb trying to be edgy kek
>>275259150I think I've watched over 500 anime.Not completed but watched, probably dropped half of them after first episode and half of rest dropped in between. Then again I've been watching for 15 years and about to hit my 30th birthday.
>>275253242do zoomers even watch death noteI'd be less surprised if they said things like bnha or kimetsu.
>>275253378a episode of anime is 22 minutes long. you can watch an entire show in the span of one capeshit "movie".
>>275259150Considering a billion people watch anime globally, if you aren't one of the million people that fit that criteria you are a gigantic normalfag.
>>275259262Most who are in to it seriously watched and even those who don't knows about it because of pop cultural osmosis.
>>275259247well then blame taiga ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>275259262absolutely. Death Note is much more entry level than BNHA and Kimetsu. it only pales in comparison with SnK
>>275259339Isn't Taiga just a front end for MAL?
>>275259262yes and same with nge
>>275253242Anon, if it was a girl saying this to you, she was shooting her shot.
>>275253378>can you call yourself a capeshit fan if you never read a comicbook in your life?No
>>275259367as far as i know its just an anime tracking software
>>275259462I would argue otherwise. Capeshit has transcended comics.
>>275253242That's nice, for me it's ro-kyu-bu, kunoichi tsubaki, and ichigo mashimaro
>>275253242>have you heard about anime called "my little sister can't be this cute"
>>275254252I would tell them I watch Precure so that they know I'm a weirdo who should not be approached.
>>275259505>Capeshit has transcended comicsMarvel and DC are practically dying in the box office these days, and people who regularly watched Marvel movies were giganormies who care more for going to the cinema than superheroes.
>>275259576Most people would just think you're a bit weird and then move on, people aren't that judgemental or bothered to be.
>>275259578>Marvel and DC are practically dying in the box officeThat's because they have been directionless since endgame. Anyways it's not just the movies, capeshit dominates in video games, cartoons, etc... which are successful. In fact, all those Saturday morning cartoons in the 90s did more to make capeshit mainstream than comics and films ever did.
>>275253242
>>275259222at least half of the dudes at my local shops bring their gfs, usually looking miserably bored, on their phone, or playing a switch. occasionally they convince one to play which is nice because its a free win if you get paired against her.>>275259249i was when i got the playmat ~12 years ago. at the time i was in high school and had only watched evangelion and cowboy bebop. monogatari was the catalyst that started my transformation into unironic weeb.
>>275254345Doesn't Oshi no Ko have the whole "they're not spiritually related" excuse? Sorry haven't watched it past the 1st episode.Also twitter is not real life. No one cares that much about cartoons.
>>275254493This, game of thrones is the most generic favorite show.
>>275259733very useful list of shows to avoid watching, thanks
>>275259785>they're not spiritually relatedThat's a meme tier excuse made up by copers. Everyone not coping knows it's pic related.
>>275256481You can't appreciate the good with experiencing the bad, that's why it's a bad idea to only go to the most top rated stuff in anime/shows/movies
>get memed into watching hundreds of "good" anime for people with "good taste">DBZ is literally better than all of them
>>275259877Without*
>>275254345>>275259785>>275259867the incestbait in OnK is actually very mild compared to most anime. i challenge you to name a single anime that portrays a healthy, normal relationship between oppsex siblings with no undertones.
>>275260116They kissed, even most ecchi manga is afraid to go that far.
>>275258873If you have no other hobbies and really get into it episodes are like 20 minutes each so if you spend 1-3 hours a day watching you can easily keep up with a ton of series and even watch old ones.Now that I think about it that was a better time in my life and I should go back to doing that.
>>275260156i doubt dogakobo will allow that scene to be animated if they even get that far. they know their audience, and wouldn't shoot their cash cow.
>>275260175Don't! That's your nostalgia speaking! You should get into some hobbies that aren't just consuming media.
>>275260261>incest kiss kills the showname a single one
>>275253242>50newfag
>>275260116>i challenge you to name a single anime that portrays a healthy, normal relationship between oppsex siblings with no undertones.Watch more shows. Most anime where the sibling is a side character does that. It's only an issue when the sibling is among the main cast but the issue isn't unique to anime. Even westerners struggle to write sibling dynamics with no romantic undertones , that's why there were so many sokkaxkatara or azulaxzuko shippers.
>>275260261The majority of the fans are women not men, they won't kick up a fuss
>>275253242Ah yes god forbid other people enjoy your hobby.I hope you stay lonely and stay miserable.
You HAVE to like the recent eighth season of Underage Panty Quest VI OR Super Robot Tenshi Hyper(the 1981 reboot), how dare you like something easily accessible and popular and well received so much that it's even popular in Japan to this day. I used to love those too, but then they got popular and available in places that weren't obscure IRC groups and torrents from 2006, before normies found them. That's how I KNOW I'm a real anime fan, here watch *oh shit it just got officialy translated and is getting praised* um nevermind, that's trash too.
>>275260279>making AMVsRequires knowing anime for good scenes to cut>making anison mixtapesRequires knowing anime for good sound clips>DrawingRequires anime/manga to copy and for inspiration>Learning a foreign languageRequires watching anime so there's actually a point to it
>>275260375>Even westerners struggle to write sibling dynamics with no romantic undertones ,More like it's almost impossible for two attractive characters on screen to care about each other without people viewing through shipping goggles. It's more a shipperfaggot problem, not a writer problem.
>>275259505Depends on the capeshit. The genre is kinda impossible to gatekeep now since MCU milked it to death, everyone kinda knows the tropes from TV and movies and then do the same shit that someone already did first in the 80's, and getting into the actual comics themselves are impossible since most normies don't know how to start from 1962 with Spider-man(even though it was pretty good for a Silver Age comic)
>>275259208They're speedreaders/speedwatchers who just consume a piece of media just to say they watched it. They never actually sit down and try to enjoy it or engage with it. They're like those people who watch everything at double speed. It's like how fat people tend to gobble down their food fast, they don't actually savor it. I don't really get it, but I'm extremely autistic and rewatch shit all the time, sometimes the same scene over and over again, which can be a chore too. Probably OCD. So the opposite extreme can be bad too.
>>275253242Watching anime is for faggots real men read manga
>>275259914I did not grow up with Dragon Ball. I didn't watch it on TV, it's new to me.It is very fucking kino, /a/ is in the middle of the IQ chart where they have a normie generic fucking try hard opinion when they hate on certain shounen
>>275260116The OnK one is actually one of the most retarded, she was basically acting like a normal sibling for majority of the manga and suddenly knowing a crucial part of her brothers backstory has made her wanting to get in his pants? This isn't how normal sibling dynamics works and it's obvious author had no siblings. Even if I came to know my sister was adopted, I wouldn't suddenly get attracted to her sexually upon learning this fact. All those echhislop where the imouto lusts after oniichan's dick just because he's nice makes more sense than this trash writing.> i challenge you to name a single anime that portrays a healthy, normal relationship between oppsex siblings with no undertones.So far from what I've seen Kimetsu. Dungeon Meshi is another I guess.
>>275259914I'm brown btw
>>275256481There's a lot of good anime out there. Watching only on TV, pirating but only knowing English, you'll still be missing out without even knowing. Even knowing another language that still isn't Japanese opens up new doors to shit you don't know.It's just that everyone's taste is different so you're not gonna enjoy all the masterpieces. But you might like some of trash you think is actually underrated along the way. I saw this as someone who doesn't get people who brag about watching a gajillion shows that they probably didn't appreciate either
>>275259054That just sounds like it's treating a show like an assembly line and a checkmark. I personally prefer watching a few shows per season at best. This way, I explore each one in depth by letting what I watch have time to sink in, sometimes tuning into online fan discussion if needed. I can't imagine watching one episode until its conclusion and then immediately tuning in to the next show on my list just to cram everything into my 1-2hr of free time per day.
>>275260906>pirating but only knowing English, you'll still be missing out without even knowing.can you provide some examples?
>>275253242I watched only 300 anime but I had read thousands of hentai doujinshi
>>275260871Latin America and Europe got anime Americans never got, even got to watch most of Dragon Ball and not just Z unlike the US, so all that obscure cool elite old anime you know are actually normie boomer shit there. Therefore they watched more anime than burgers who only got shit from toonami in the late 90's, sorry I'm just following the /a/rbitrary rules
>>275260956I'm also EOP but I was thinking some manga that only exist in French or Spanish.I think the Ace wo Nerae manga is only in French, and considered better than the anime
>>275253242>50 animeBack in my days the bar was at least a hundred and I think that's a bit too low now.
>>275261068You're not a native anglophone. If a manga isn't available in japanese it isn't manga.>the Ace wo Nerae manga is only in FrenchNot anime
>>275260375>Most anime where the sibling is a side character does that.okay, name one then>Even westerners struggle to write sibling dynamics with no romantic undertones , that's why there were so many sokkaxkatara or azulaxzuko shippers.bad example beacuse the sibling dynamic in that show is perfectly normal and shippers are simply delusional. with western shows it's pretty hit or miss, but not overwhelmingly skewed one way or the other. most siblings in western shows act perfectly normal, if at times adversarial but with no sexual or romantic undertones. examples: friends, that 70s show, american dad, young sheldon, sopranos, dexter, modern family. counterexamples include arrested development (its his cousin but still incest), family guy, game of thrones.
>>275260694>I don't really get it, but I'm extremely autistic and rewatch shit all the time, sometimes the same scene over and over again, which can be a chore too. Probably OCD. So the opposite extreme can be bad too.You are just like me bro. I sometimes pause every 2 minutes to look up stuff e.g. what that Japanese word means and how its written or who the voice actor is and what else she voice, then I sometimes start to watch a different anime in the middle of the episode just to compare voices or color schemes of the background or whatever, and then I go back and have to rewatch it because I already forgot what just happened. A 20 minute episode sometimes takes up to an hour to watch for me. Autism at its best.
>>275261195>You're not a native anglophoneIf you say so
>>275261210>okay, name one thenK-on mugi's brother.
>>275261437Or whatever that tomboy girls name was.
>>275261374Native anglophones don't refer to themselves with insults spics use
>>275261437there are boys in k-on? i thought it was in the yuri-verse with madoka, yuru yuri, and mahoako?
>>275260949If you watch seasonal anime, you have an entire week to let each episode sink in and appreciate it. The full experience of the season inevitably lasts three months. (The more time you spend with someone, the more attached you become). Already aired anime is devoured in a binge-watching session over just 1/2 days. The experience is fleeting and easily forgettable, and you can’t really connect with the community because older anime is no longer trending, and no one talks about it.
>>275261339That shit is so fucking daunting and exhausting, I tried to give it up but every time I start doing it again. It's worse because I actually like anime with obscure references and dumb Japanese puns. I started telling myself that I can always rewatch something another day, start immediately deleting an episode after I finish it, or just start watching it on shitty shady streaming sites that I'll forget eventually.
>>275253242You are thinking about it the wrong way. You have been blessed with a nearly blank slate. You can pretty much guide this person whole anime experience and education through recommendations... if you are confident on your own taste that is. I mean, it would reflect badly on you if you recommended the wrong kind of stuff.
>>275261500It's a /jp/ term but I'll bow to your gay ass made up rules if it makes you feel better
>>275261517Yes and it seems you haven't watched madoka either
>>275261339You're just retarded at this point.
>>275261576That isn't surprising since that board has a polish janny who lets polaks make entire threads speaking their revolting language>made up rulesExcept it wasn't
>>275261583i have not. got bored and lost interest 2 or 3 eps in. same with k-on.
>>275260375>azulaxzukoThey're royalty so it makes sense. Watercest isn't really that popular, not as Zutara or the one with Sokka and Toph(which is controversial for westoids but for another reason)Better American examples are the Gravity Fall twins or Gwen and Ben.
>>275261596Don't be mean
>>275261517I think there's at least one(1(uno(ein))) male mentioned in Yuru Yuri, but in past tense K-On and Madoka just focus on girls and boys show up every now and then, but aren't important.
>>275253242that's why you have no friends, loser
>>275261339I always rewind a bit and rewatch the last sequence and its lines of dialogue to penetrate its sense more deeply
>>275260116>Grave of the Fireflies>Cardcaptor Sakura>Kamichu>Tokyo Magnitude 8.0>Soremachi>Hyouka>Non non Biyori>Mikakunin de Shinkoukei>Flying Witch>Summer Time Render>Dungeon MeshiAnd here's a bonus not anime but Yugami-kun
>>275261672>Sokka and Toph(which is controversial for westoids but for another reason)Dare I ask what's the problem this time?
>>275260116>>275261959Oh and I don't know if they should count as real siblings but Pluto
To be honest, I think only about 100 anime series are worth watching. 100 more for anime films.
>>275261524>If you watch seasonal anime, you have an entire week to let each episode sink in and appreciate itSure, for me, that works for each show, maybe even half a dozen. But I can't imagine sinking in to a couple dozen shows in a week. I can't imagine thinking about 24 shows simultaneously for three months. And that's not including some of the already completed shows I want to immerse myself with. And, speaking of which,>Already aired anime is devoured in a binge-watching session over just 1/2 daysI like to space out my shows by arcs, and very rarely binge an entire season, unless said season is one arc. This can mean watching a simple 24-ep show can take me a nearly a week in theory. This practice I know is uncommon even amongst those who don't watch many shows, but I take my time to immerse myself and think about how the story will unveil, that's just I how I am.>The experience is fleeting and easily forgettable, you can’t really connect with the community because older anime is no longer trendingI don't always seek out communication with the community, but even then, referring to older anime as a fleeting and forgetful experience is depressing. I enjoy looking at bonus content if I can research it, older fanworks, long-abandoned wordpresses filled with interviews or other reviews. And if it has none of that, I'll just spend time thinking about it on my own. Just because the community for the anime isn't active, doesn't mean I'll instantly forget about it and move on to the next series. That's just not the way I complete anime, it's too assembly-line like.
>>275253242>I'm a big fan of the fate series.>OH I play FGO too!
>>275261524>>275262882It's not the method of consumption, but the quality of the show that determines your enjoyment.
Normalfags who only watch whatever shows up on Netflix aren't they problem. It's the ironic weebs who are the real vermin.
>>275263641How would you define that? It seems a lot of people use it for different meanings.
Always hide your powerlevel. There is 0 reason to talk about anime with normies. If people bring up anime around me, I just play dumb because you already know exactly how that conversation is going to go. It's funnier to let them think they're some sort of anime expert because you didn't know what Death Note was anyway. You ultimately reach a point where you basically know anime as something completely different than your average normie. You might as well not even try to engage in convert about it because your experiences are so far removed from one another that even if you try to engage it's the same as of one of you had never seen anime at all.
>>275263763There is only one meaning - people who claim to be into it "ironically", but really, they're so insecure about themselves that they try to disguise it through a veneer of self-awareness.
>>275263184I'd say it's both. Though you can argue whether one is more important than the other and to which degree.
>>275253242This happened to me the other day but it was just JJK and CSM. That was it. He was a friend of a friend so I wasn't expecting much but still. I forget how huge shounen is outside of Japan, its almost all anyone thinks of when you hear the word anime.
>>275264019What about the people who actually aren't into anime but claim to like it and force themselves to watch it just to be ironic and trendy?
>>275263794Gonna have to agree. Someone who uses /a/ is going to have a vastly different idea of anime than a normalfag. Don't even start with manga, its a completely foreign concept to them. Online friends and anonymous posters are the only people to talk about anime/manga with. Someone will watch Squid Game and Parasite and say they're a fan of K-dramas. Sorry, you watched 2-3 shows possibly even dubbed over in English and are making it your personality for the next 30 days. I am absolutely of the "let people enjoy things" mentality, its good to experience other cultures and genres. Life has so much more to offer (entertainment wise) than the slop you'll find on American television, or even worse, on youtube. I just don't really care to talk about anime or whatever it is with those kinds of people whose only experience with a medium is the most bare bones, current popular thing.
If you think your opinion is worth shit at 50 shows you're the normalfag.
>>275265218>zoomer reading comprehension
>>275264271Me calling something "not normal" doesn't mean a lot but that sounds really not normal. I don't know how many people are watching anime ironically.
Death Note and Attack of Titan are the best of their decade.
>>275253242What if I don't know how many I've watched, but know it's in at least the double digits?Also, are you only counting shows I've finished, or does watching them at all count, or what?I don't really care if I meet your standards, but I'm curious how high they are.
>>275265528You care and you don't
>>2752655283 episode rule
I met some dude in real life who claimed to have watched somewhere between 800-1000 anime (I don't remember the exact number and it doesn't matter) and claimed to prefer dubs over subs with no explanation.It was like interacting with the average psychotic newfag.
>>275265598rules are redditor brainrot
>>275261959>Summer Time Render>the show about two sisters who want their hot adoptive brother
>>275265528Minimum should be between 300 and 500. It's so easy to watch anime, there's really no reason anyone with a solid amount of investment shouldn't have at least 300 watched, and even that is on the low end.For context, I'd dabbled with watching anime back in the early 2000's and had seen 50-80. When I got back into anime in 2011, it took 2 years to easily pass 300 without really even trying.If I wanted to impress high standards, I'd say 1000 anime, that's still well below what I've seen but most people won't tell you it's harder to get to 1000 from 500 than it is from 0 to 500. If you're just talking about a baseline understanding, 300-500 is sufficient. Not like anyone here posts their lists at all times to prove how much they've seen, but you can generally tell where they're probably at by how they post and where they post.
>>275265785>adoptive
>>275265604Sounds like your average American couch potato who watches whatever sitcom is on after the News and has absolutely no engagement with it.
If you haven't seen every single anime I don't even know why you are posting on /a/.Literally just kill yourself if there's a single anime you can say you haven't seen yet.Disgusting trash, put some effort into improving yourself.
>>275265604>>275265909sounds like a mindrotten gook I know who "watches" anime on x3 speed and pretends to understand the plot
>1000+ anime watched>hasn't read any manga
>>275265909>>275266205I don't know his deal. He was a NEET living with his sister and her husband (I was friends with the husband and would go visit them often for a few months back in 2016). I think he was just neurotic, regular white dude. Smelled like bullshit either way.
>>275253643>skips openingsI alternate, unless the opening is really good
Why would you ever watch openings and endings except the first time?
>skip OP/ED>play at 2x speed>skip exposition >skip filler episodes
>>275266509most openings are just plain shit, I also don't like japanese pop music
>>275266509Based>>275266540>xe doesn't watch op/ed on the last episodeNgmi
>>275266740usually there's no OP and the ED plays during the final scene, so it's obvious I do.
>>275253242AoT is a cheap copy cat of Muv Luv
Admitting your favorite anime is something like cute girls doing cute things or an ecchi anime to a normie is a death sentence in this day and ageThere's been this increase of calling everyone a pedophile that you'd commit social suicide The safe answer if asked is to say a random popular shonen or seinenAnime becoming mainstream has been the worst.
>>275265860who fucking counts?I've been watching since 2008 finishing probably 5 shows a season average with some extra shows from the backlog on slow season. I've never used any form of tracking because I don't see the need to keep score. Gun to my head, I have no idea how many I've seen.
>>275266796in Wit's hands it was bettter
>>275266834I track what I watched because most sites that list anime let you filter out slop you already watched or marked that you will never ever
>>275261554Did this and it's biting me in the ass. I drop way more shows nowadays as my taste has been refined. Meanwhile, new kid is in his slop eater phase and because he's watching like 12 shows every season versus my 3 he thinks he's "surpassed" me. This is the result of MAL tracker autism.
>>275266369If he's NEET he probably just consooms it for escapism. You don't need to engage with something for it to take your mind on how much of a piece of shit human being you feel for leeching off others and doing nothing all day. I spent a couple of years as a NEET and that shit will destroy your self esteem and the worst part is it acts as a perpetuating cycle.
>>275267085I'm a NEET and watch maybe 1 anime a season if that.
>>275266540because they are part of the viewing experience as intended by the creators
>>275265785I was referring to the MC's friend and his sister. He's not related to the sisters and they don't call him onii-chan or anything. They don't really have a sibling relationship in the first place.
>>275267003I just download everything and delete it later if it's shit.
>>275267161I've downloaded some things three times just to delete them later because I realized that I already saw them 10 years ago.
>>275254252"yeah bro this anime thing - it's not really for me"
>>275266834Clearly your not autistic enough, I have a list for each season going back almost 20 years and each year going back over 45 years. You track to better put in perspective trends of taste and better engage in a sort of database consumption. I don't fault people for not keeping track, but just know you and I are not the same.
>>275267247why would you keep track, just remember it
>>275266740And people say newfagGPT is not real.
>>275266820Hasn't the pedophile hysteria has been dying down
>>275267284Because you reach a point you can't remember all 24 shows you watched in Summer of 2014 off the top of your head so it is convenient to have something to immediately jog your memory and catalogue trends you may not have caught yourself just going by your limited purview of recollection.
>>275266820>The safe answer if asked is to say a random popular shonen or seinenIts not a safe answer, they'll often have a cute girl or some very light fan service so its automatically "problematic".
>>275267365Anon, that narcissist has watched so few anime that he remembers everything and he is going to project his worldview onto everybody else.
>>275267365maybe if your memory is bad, but if I see something from a show I will immediately know if I have seen it or not and I have certainly watched more than you
lol told you!!!
>>275267344Didn't some million plus subscriber YouTube animator just make a video that got millions of views calling out Loli shit a pedophilia? This shit doesn't go away, at best it has a dormant period that lasts a couple of months.
>>275267419Ok what was the 7th most recent anime you've seen and what happened at the 16 minute and 30 second mark of episode 7?
>>275267441>>275267407Just because you can't see yourself doing something, doesn't mean other people can't do it
>>275267484I dunno, but why would I need to remember that? What is the purpose in remembering such things?You don't keep your little list for that purpose either, do you?
>>275267486Take your own advice, narcissist. Better yet, kill yourself because you harm someone in real life.
>>275267442So some moralfaggot no one has heard of. For normal people the pedo thing seems to be becoming more and more irrelevant. There has been some effort to equate trannies with pedos by both anti pedos and anti trannies in order to synchronize their crusades, maybe that will effect normalfags since trannies seem to even be annoying them.
>>275267536this is a strange non-sequitur, why are you upset?
>>275267111the episodes are also meant to be viewed on a weekly schedule, that's why they have recapsdo you wait a week between episodes?
>>275267522the difference is my computer keeps the list instead of me
>>275267562been a while since I saw anime that does recaps
>>275267344Lol no absolutely not. especially if you're a man
>>275267085>projecting his inability to generate his own self-worth
>>275267563but see, that's the thing, you don't need the listyou need vague recollection if you have seen somthing already and just remembering gets you to the same pointIt's the natural way you engage with anime on this website as well. You see an OP with an image with a girl from a show from 23 seasons ago. You don't go consulting your list, cross referencing all the anime girls in all the shows n your list, you just recognize the girl and you know what anime it is.
>>275267522Yes, I can tell you what all I watched last year and then choose to go look at the staff list and use that to find that information because I'm not a retard who just thinks I can remember everything. Do you watch seasonals? Can you tell me every seasonal you watched in Spring 2012?
>>275267612no, but if you post a girl from roughly that time period I can probably tell you what anime she was ina list won't help you do that
>>275267608I do need the list, don't tell me what I do or don't need, retarded faggot.
>>275267247bold of you to assume I am not autistic
>>275267649Why are you upset?????????
>>275267638Yeah, just about anyone can do that if they pay enough attention, that's not what you keep a list for.
>>275267685why are you retarded?
>>275267691then what do you keep a list for?
>>275267691I guess I'm retarded for being unable to identify CGDCTrash character differences.
>>275267733wow, but spring 2012 was a stacked season with amazing cute girls
>>275267697Why are you upset that I am better than you?
>>275267365I can't name everything I've seen off the top of my head but I've never read the name of a show I've seen and not immediately remembered watching it. It sounds like you might be forcing yourself through shows that don't engage you just to pad your watch count.
The only reason I watch anime is to ogle JS and JC.
>>275267419>but if I see something from a show I will immediately know if I have seen it Ok but you still don't have an aggregate of every single show you've seen to cross reference past experiences and trends. It's not just about knowing what you've seen
>>275253242>at least 50 animeIt was 200.>reaction pic with that stupid bitch She's fucking awful as a character and her design is tasteless af. Lurk more.t. Russian
>>275267562Nonsense comparison, episodes are not live concerts, they are made available and expected to be watched at any time. Release schedules are a result of production and broadcast realities, not artistic intent.
>>275267771>plot so soulless, one word title can instantly summarize it in your head a decade after watching it
>>275267791so what do you need to do that for?
>>275267684>only 7TBsDecent start.
>>275267834well, if it's good, you'll just remember and if it's bad you'll probably be able to guess enough.
>>275267771wouldn't it be the opposite? plot so soulless that it takes a moment to recall and even then I've actually confused it with another show? I know you've been getting easy bait with that other anon but I am not so easily fooled!
>>275267813yet the episodes, even when bundled and released on dvd/bd keep the recapsthis is a clear sign that the episodes aren't meant to be viewed immediately one after the otherthe OP and the ED is the same, why would you interrupt the story every 20 minutes to play the exact same 4mins of credits
>>275267845>why do you want a better understanding on anime and how you engage with itBecause I happen to like anime shockingly enough
>>275267887>everything is le black and whiteI'm not retarded, so there's this big gap of "average" that gets immediately forgotten and thus I'm not immune to good synopsis but average anime tricking me into downloading what I saw, luckily I solved that problem by tracking what I saw.
>>275267895>>275267834retard
>narcissist doesn't understand basic neuroscienceEmbarrassing crossboarder behavior.
>>275267895Yeah, I can't recall average anime until I see exact frames I saw before. Turns out that only extremely good and extremely bad anime is memorable, while everything inbetween is memoryholed very fast because it's irrelevant.
>>275253242I've read over 200 manga and Boku no Hero Academia is my favorite
truly amazing teen thread
>>275267771I mean I remember plenty of trash I've seen off the top of my head, but that doesn't mean I remember every single thing I've ever seen without any assistance. Sometimes I get the name of an obscure series slightly wrong and it becomes hard to find unless you remember it exactly, doesn't mean I forgot what it was, what the characters looked like, etc.For example, I'm talking about how something like the show from 2014 that was marketed as the first live anime is interesting and am trying to tell them what it was. I think it's Mirai Diva, but searching that gives you Hatsune Miku shit. Minari Diva? No it was Minarai Diva and it's just easier to keep track of because I have it catalogued on a list rather than just trying to remember the exact name of an obscure show that is not going to beat out a myriad of other things in any algorithm.
>NOOOO, YOU CANNOT JUST SAVE TIME BY ONLY CHECKING WHAT YOU STILL HAVE ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY NOT SEEN BEFORE!
>>275253242arya kawaii!!!
>>275267963>there's this big gap of "average" that gets immediately forgottenbut surely you can just remember when you see the title or a screenshot from it
>>275268075I don't remember any trash I saw, and that's a very big problem to me.
>>275268037Understandable but I don't have that problem. I remember even shows I dropped a few eps in.
>>275268018is narcissist your pet insult? Have you tried going back to instagram? That site might be closer to your level.
>>275268150If someone gave you a photo of a random person that was in your vicinity at one point of your life but not directly in your face, could you identify them and tell me on what year and day you saw them? Moron.
>>275268160you seem to have problem understanding that average doesn't get dropped a few eps in
>>275268189You are demanding a level of recognition that is beyond the scope of the discussion, by presenting a false equivalence. You are doing this because you'd like to extract a concession from me. Change your analogy to reflect what is being discussed and then I will answer.
>>275268297your concession is humbly accepted
>>275268188Stop shitting up the thread, nigger. I'm a psychfag in real life and your continuous behavior and posting style is as a lighthouse within this garbage underage containment thread. All you can communicate through is standard newfag insults and put-downs. You should be placed in a facility, if you're not already in one. Your personal opinion does not overrule the totality of empirical observation.>blah blah INSTAGRAMSave it, newfagGPT.
>>275268189The problem is that you can unironically describe a show you watched as a similar experience to seeing a stranger in your peripheral. That means you're not present and engaged while you're watching. A more apt comparison would be getting shown a photo of someone you had a lengthy conversation with. You might not remember their exact name but you could probably remember the gist of the conversation or where it occurred. It would be more strange not to.
>>275268314I hope you'll return those goalposts, then.
>>275267906>this is a clear sign that the episodes aren't meant to be viewed immediately one after the otherNo, it isn't. It's a clear sign that they aren't going to exclude content that they created from the BDs. I wonder if you'd take this bait far enough and argue that any series without recaps IS meant to be binged? >the OP and the ED is the sameNo, they aren't. The OP and ED are part of an episode, you're skipping content. You can try to justify it however you like, but not watching the full episode is not comparable to the pace at which you decide to watch episodes. Extra shame if you're including the non-identical ones in this, of which there are many.
>>275268319You seem very upset for no real reason. What's up with that?Are you projecting? You know psychology students mainly study to "heal themselves", right?
>>275268245maybe not on the criteria of simply being average, but surely you drop shows that are so unengaging that you literally don't remember them once they're done? Why are you watching things you don't like?
>>275268321Yes, I can unironically describe average show to be as relevant as people I saw on the street today, literally equivalent significance to my memory.I can only remember anime I enjoyed, or anime that made me cringe, like arifureta CGI making me drop it.You're mentally ill if you remember everything worthless that you ever experienced.

>>275268378you know that this childish habit of not quoting posts properly, but passive aggressively seething about them only became a meme around 2012 or so, right?
It's not a problem to talk with normalfags about anime, however I couldn't exactly talk about how much I like shows about CGDCT anime with them.Likewise, it's pointless to talk to some child online who thinks "FRIEREN IS PEAK". You're never going to convince it to watch things made before 2016.Anime discourse is knowing what kind of watcher you're talking to.
>>275253242Romcomharemslop faggots aren't allowed to gatekeep the hobby, you are the cancer
>>275259514I actually tell people I watch anime like gochiusa.100% of the time they say they never heard of it and never bring up anime again.

>responding twice to the same postlulz
>>275268491Clearly, but make an effort to do so anyway.What is the value in watching something you are not interested in? You could just watch something you are interested in instead. There is infinitely more value there.
>>275268463but if it's worthless, you won't?
>>275267798Also, big numbers =/= good taste. You can find users with 3-4+k titles on MAL, and they still watch and give 9-10 to series that are mediocre at best.
>>275262011A hint. Some "people"(Zutarians) said Katara and Aang could never happen because Aang is too young and that would make Katara a pedophile. So just look at Toph and Sokka next to each other, even though the age difference is like 3ish years
>>275268515multiple people disagree with youit's hard to believe, but you should be able to tell from the writing style.

>>275268696I was just asking a question.What are you going to talk about when it comes to Frieren? Why asking for more explanation make you throw a fit?You know, I think you might not be here to talk about anime or talk about talking about anime.I think you just want to epic troll people on the internet.
>>275268756mad
>>275268750esl
>>275268779is a badge of honor on this ameritranny site
>>275255584i can't stand live action shows for how long each episode is, i got shit to do and constantly pausing the video runs the risk of occasionally never finishing it.
>>275268747It's easier to blend in now, but you absolutely must not make the mistake of lowering your guard and revealing your power level. Anime is more visible, but there is still a VERY narrow range of what's acceptable.
>>275268793you shouldn't be proud of your incompetence.
>>275268793it's kind of weird how you use this website yet hate it and most of the users so much
>>275268763no u
>>275268779Nothing about his post signifies that English is his second language. However, given his response, he is most assuredly a factory-built newfag.
>>275268855>you have to be 56% white to be an oldfag
>>275268589>Yo, that shadow frieren fight was LIT!
>>275268855This reply >>275268750 reveals it, he doesn't understand the idiom I used, so his reply is wrong.
>>275268821it's kind of weird how the website is good and you are the only problem with it
>>275268821Probably the same dude trying to shit on everybody else for the past hour plus.
>>275268893>yeah bro it was so sick
>>275268912>the website is goodwith all the americans on it?
>>275268589>There is nothing interesting to engage with here.You just have no creative mind at all.Absolute, bare minimum, you can talk about each of the powers, how they scale, and how you'd use them.All fighting and magic shows have this talking point and if you can't even engage in it you're a mindbroken consumer.
>>275268893I watched frieren but already have no idea what the hell is shadow frieren.
>>275268967better americans than third worlders who don't even speak the language
>>275268939>yo bro season 2 confirmed bro LETS GOOOOOOO
>>275268983Fight at the end of the magic exam arc.
>>275268983the clone in the mage test baka
>>275268986>yooo I hope the green girl is in it some more she was sick
>>275268984>better retards who stole language from UK then butchered it than people who can competently learn the proper UK variant
>>275268810No one fucking cares man. Anyone being a fag about it isn't worth talking to anyways. Just be prepared to back up anything you say without being a sperg this admittedly takes practice
>>275269034but you can't, that's my complaintgo study some more
>>275269034>>275269053In my reality, you two are now hugging and there is nothing either of you can do to prevent this.
>>275269053I'm studying right now, learning new ways of how not to use it in this very thread.
>>275268984So why were you having a go about americans in the first place? don't you realize that's the third worlder thing?
>>275269024>dawg I loved watching her with the glasses bro I was like run bro you gotta go go go fr no cap
>>275269074you seem confused
>>275269098he's an american, be nice
>>275269097>nah bro glasses bro is gonna secure that bag he's gonna lock it in fo sure
>>275269098Yeah sorry for not realizing that you're just a retard that repeats whatever nonsense gets posted here
>>275269141I think you might be confusing me for a different user?
Now this is pod racing!
>>275269111nope
>>275269042believe me they do. that attitude is a psyop
>>275269121>aint no waaaaaaaaaaaaaay bro my man stark needs to pay attention boy only KNOWS how to fumble
>>275268893>>275268939>>275268986>>275269024>>275269097>>275269121>>275269261
>>275269293Do you not enjoy this simulation of talking about anime with normalfags?
>>275269307I know it's in jest and that causes it to be vaguely amusing to me but 99% of the other time:l
>>275253312>attentionfag defending normiesfigures
>>275269199As I described in my post they aren't worth talking to anyways
>>275269370>normiesSo creatures like your newfag ass? Why are you upset with him 10 hours late?
>>275269261>yo what if he gets that potion frieren had. y'know the clothes melting one. What if he invited Fern out for shopping, lured her into a back alley then splashed her with it and raped her?>dawg that would be so fire
>>275269516bro wtf is wrong with you
>>275253382>it hurts my pride because I passively watched more shows than themno one with an actual hobby would think twice about this much less think it's a point of pride
^ narcissistic nigger
I liked anime more when it almost exclusively pandered to pedos. Normalfaggotry is taking over the medium at a fast rate.
>>275269710still here instafriend?
>>275268810Sounds like a problem for someone under the age of 25, so, not me.The last decade of political correctness BS completely obliterated any shits I once had to give for the ""opinions"" of other """""people""""".
>>275269958so you never liked anime?
>>275267563You're a slave to your computer.
>>275270110and you're my bitch for useless responding
>>275268372>arifureta CGI making me drop itDare I say it, holy filtered.. no, but seriously, Yue redeems the entire show, plus its the only isekai apart from Tsukimichi that does the whole tongue in cheek or self-aware isekai thing well.
>>275254345but normalfags love incest. remember game of thrones?
>>275253242I don't care how many you've watched, as long as you watch the right sort. I have nothing in common with people who don't like CGDCT.
>>275268589Frieren has interesting worldbuilding though. I know its popular and therefore many obsessively contrarian anons here must hate it, but it gets to be ridiculous.
>>275270174eminence is the king of self aware slop
>>275253242You can't shoot the shit with them about Death Note? Shit, I've watched more anime than more people I've ever met irl and I still chat eith normies about Blue Lock and shit.
>>275270308>worldbuildinglol, lmao
>>275270174yes, trash filters me
>>275268589>There is nothing interesting to engage with here.just admit that you got filtered, there would be more dignity in that
Everyone talking about Frieren, you're still going to be here in 5 years pretending to be a zoomer "satirizing" how inane the show is, all the while giving away how you somehow can still identify every major character in it and major events in the show.
>>275270467>you can identify frieren, curious!
>>275270308I think the themes and the emotional resonance of the story is a better selling point (and leads to higher quality discussion) than the worldbuilding
>>275270467zoomer culture was the butt of the joke, speedreader
>>275253378I'm not a capeshit fan.
>>275254252I have looked my gf in the eye and explained the plot of Oreimo and why Kirino is the perfect woman.
>>275270735wouldn't be surprised if she's a lesbian
>>275270467There are tons of manga whose character I recognise despite never having read said manga just because of how often you see anons post about them.
>>275270268normalfags are experts at doublethink, they can watch GOT without softening their stance on incest which will reactivate whenever an anime with incest appears in front of them
>>275270735You found a real keeper if she is willing to put up with your garbage taste, anon.
>>275270809GoT incest is portrayed in a very negative way.
>>275270852so is oreimo incest in anime
It took me 3 hours to read this thread sinking in and appreciate it every post here if you don’t do this to threads you’re reading. You’re a tourist, newfag and a normalfag.
>>275270930it took me 0 time to not finish reading your narcissistic post
>>275270930>It took me 3 hours to read thisThe fuck? It took me 15 minutes.
anime is inferior to manga anyway, why brag about it at all
>>275270735kneeling
>>275270852Not really (Jamie is essentially redeemed) and not always (Jon and Dany's relationship wasn't portrayed badly), and that's also not the point. Normalfags are not suddenly being nuanced, their knee-jerk response to call any depiction of incest degenerate and act disgusted at the show was simply not triggered because it was popular and the actors were handsome. The mob's morality is performative, it's not a serious conviction.
>>275270735>your girlfriend has never seen Oreimo and you've now spoiled it for herkinda cringe ngl
>>275271122Jamie gets redeemed when the incest stops. Said incesteous relationship is also portrayed as very twisted and without romance or real love.
>>275253890>watching random garbagepic related?
>>275270460>>275270308give me a sample conversation you'd have about Frieren, then
>>275270467I liked it, but the thing is, there's nothing to talk about.
>>275253242I am a fan of sex despite never having had itit's like that
>>275262596>>275256481>There are only [number you pulled out of your ass] good animeHow did you even make that judgment?
>>275270930I unironically do this(I've wasted my life, "lurk moar" is a scam)
>>275268589Have you ever had friends
