Alya and incest.
Were enough to make this show popular.
>>
>>282021126
That is one of my most hated anime cliches. But especially when it's "made a childhood promise to get married but I totally forgot everything about it but she still remembers it, but refuses to explain it to me or anyone else and just acts like she's my fiance out of nowhere"
>>
>>282021489
It is still fucking obnoxious even if it's properly set up. All amnesia plots are stupid and obnoxious unless they are played for laughs, like if a succession of 5+ girls all show up claiming to have been his childhood friend that he forgot about.

Anything involving pedophilia or incest such as:

Nope, it is so horrendous that it has been used less and less in modern works, even cliche riddled romcoms got sick of it.

1) Arya is very pretty

cheaping out breaks immersion. Like, what is this, a simulation inside an empty void? Was the family member even real? If you gotta cheap out, at least hide it better, usually by narrowing the scope.

What they did with ReLife extra episodes made me so mad, I'll never forgive them, they should have just cancelled it.

I mean, romance, where the entire point is to guess which woman out of a group the main guy "chooses" in the end, is probably the worst kind of anime you could watch. It's almost as bad as modern isekai.

Not really, immersion is only broken when the show sucks, has poor artistic direction, or was attempting to imitate reality in any way. Nobody so much as blinked when Danganronpa started using blue mob characters. It just fits a setting in which blood is pink and where nobody who isn't an ultimate matters.
>>
>>282050016
>>282051724
I didn't mind that at all, I think that's a good use of the trope. Why should great potential always translate into feats.
Also it inspired fujos to write tons of fanfics.
>>
>>282050107
This. It feels wrong when the MC is the only relevant male in the show and every other 'male' is either fat, ugly, evil, incompetent, or a walking gag.

Announcing attacks that take up time to charge, thought it was retarded since I was a kid.

This is basic symbolism 101. The character is dead and the people grieving will never see him/her alive again. This is represented by his/her face in the picture literally being obscured. I'm not necessarily saying it's a good literary device, but how could anybody misunderstand something this simple?

probably bait but if not, how many anime have you seen that have those tropes? 4th one is not too uncommon, but definitely can't say the same about the others. And hard mode: how many of these relationships go anywhere?

>there was this girl in our class at the college with ENORMOUS chest
Holy shit, the way it swayed when she moved was nothing short of amazing. No underwear could fully restrain it. On her final thesis defence she had to wear something which I'm pretty sure had an actual armor rating to stop the nipples from poking through so that people would pay attention to her work instead of her chest. But anyways.

inb4 she was a psychic and erased people's memories of her so they would stop bothering her
