you must be a pseudo-intellectual/poser to think this. anime is a 99.99% good. people put their heart and soul in it, and it takes a lot of effort to generate one unlike burger media and shit

I've become able to tell after becoming a wizard and in a way it's a terrible curse. Scenaristic and animation errors, narrative weaknesses, failures of characterization, cinematography, timing, pacing, editing, storyboarding, sound design, themes and metaphors, comparisons to contemporary works.
All of these details jump into my face unprompted. It's not comfortable.
I truly had no tastes when i was 20 but i did collect excellent anime, and a couple of doozies, by trusting /a/'s tastes even if a vague sense of enjoyment was all i could garner at the time.
Thank you /a/ for all the anime & manga.

And remember that my tastes are forever, so if I said mainstream-shit was best anime ever decades ago, then it is forever true even if you discover other animes existed back then and anon pretend it is much better.

>>282251194
You should know that the consumerist tripe becomes the only thing left to see.
After seeing all the classics, all the hidden gems and all the mud. Only unique creative ideas can spur such full hearts, an anime's worth is no longer about quality, all the quality has been mined up.
As we're entering the second half of our decade, expect masterpieces of a new kind.

Anyone with a brain knows there is a certain framework for which our minds work, and we can create an objective system based on that.
Read Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.

No really, go read Kant. He does a good job at solving the Rationalism versus Empiricism debate.

>>282251870
Kant tried to reconcile religious morality with reason. His objectivity is a result of him struggling to reconcile his rejection of superstition with his core religious moral values. He was a product of his time, when empiricists were chipping away at the supernatural. He is not the be all and end all of the objectivity question

Incorrect. All the great classics are popular with the masses whether they understand what's good about them or not. You are clearly capable of genuinely telling us that Gunbuster, Akira, Eva, Cowboy bebop, Lain, Haruhi, Monogatari, Steins Gate, K-on, Tatami Galaxy, Made in Abyss and others..ARE PLAIN BAD.
Tell us then, reveal your very lack of critical thinking.
>>
Entry level? Yes of course. Great classics are always given out at the entrance of any media space. We even give children dusty old stories to read in school.

The only categorically bad anime are One Piece and nuruto. If you're 100 episodes/chapters into OP you'll realize it gets formulaic. It's not that good. nuruto...yikes, it's not good either. Even if it's better than cape. That is why battle shonen is considered the bottom genre, as a general rule.
What makes a good anime, then? It depends, the answer varies, the short answer is, anything that isn't One Piece.

Best anime when Renchon the main character, clearly, switches between nostalgic self insert and in-universe character according to some random pattern? Adult or little girl, smart of dumb, a writer must choose. The anime's moe line was barely kept straight under control. For example: Baby Renchon was not cute but instead hateful like a real baby.
My favorite anime is the Monogatari Series and it's not the best anime. By looking at it instead of looking at the subtitles one realizes that the picture is not even animated most of the time.

Not really. That said most of those anime you listed are good, only Steins;Gate and possibly K-on are bad.

Admirable post for not writing "samurai champloo's bad because hurr it's for plebs".
Isn't S;G and excellent adaptation? I find it hard to forsake the anime in favor of the VN. The game has more content but seeing it animated on a timeline with such care and respect is a joyful experience.
I omitted two dozens titles on my little list anyway. I meant that specific anime of objective high-quality keep on appearing on people's lists as long as the person bothered to go beyond shonen anime (this type of mass need not be discussed).
