The description for this anime sounds fucking horrible, im just making a thread to see anons react to whatever the fuck this is>Samara "Sam" Young is a developer in Los Angeles who's about to achieve her dreams with her first video game, Ruminate. That is, until a popular streamer gives the game a scathing review. Even worse, Sam finds out the troublesome critic is now her new neighbor! Get lost in a comedic, romantic, and all-too-real story about gaming, memes, and social anxiety. Come for the plot, stay for the doggo.
>doggo
We love black lesbian queens here on /a/ right?

>Let's Play is a romantic comedy comic series by Leeanne M. Krecic, also known as Mongie, which is published by Rocketship Entertainment.[1] Let's Play was published digitally on WebtoonNice try Actually it was a pretty bad try, I knew not even the most localized summary of an actual manga/anime title could sound so bad
The P.V makes it looks really fucking terrible.https://youtu.be/Z3kar5RWSXMYou can tell this was written by a white women.
>>282697210>memes>stay for the doggoI think I'll pass on this one.
>>282697210>Come for the plot, stay for the doggo.Who on earth writes this and thinks it's ok?No seriously, even the most reddit of redditors must cringe at this, right?

I cringed.

Okay, this was offensive. Not only is this western slop injected into anime, this is an actual propaganda piece pushing the worst liberal retardations, all packaged in anime skin.
>>282698183Ever heard of bots and manufactured narratives?
Not anime?
>>282697346kek
that was so fucking embarrassingi can't imagine paying millions in production to have the world see just how shallow your literal self-insert, and how derivative and predictable the worldbuilding you constructed are.i'd be less embarrassed to be publicly exposed on national tv than have produced this slop.
Who the fuck did the roastie who wrote this trash sleep with for this to get approved?
This was utterly embarrassing. The Queen Bee tier animation was the cherry on top. The bizarre interactions and the self-insert fantasies were mind boggling. I have no idea what I just watched and I feel dumber for it. The random DEI blacks with no context were that final kick of modernity this absolute trash needed. Love it, I this this will be my weekly slop. You can tell that the non-existent production values will tank hard in the next couple of weeks.

They don't bot themselves, they are propped up by circles pushing an agenda.Might be the same thing here. They looked for some "western manga" to infiltrate the japanese animation industry with and propped it up with million of subscribers, then some glowie told her "wow maybe you should make it a real anime wink wink".

>>282699724I still have a comic store in my town, but they closed down once a few years ago, I don't know if they switched up and shill more merch than books now or branched into manga or something, but I wouldn't be surprised if it dies again.
I've read the entirety of this webcomic. It's basically nerdy woman self insert romance with a love triangle. I won't pretend the comic wasn't cringe but it was definitely better than whatever this is trying to be.
>>282700057This reminds me so much of that Coca-Cola comic ad.

>>282699956No, the scary part is that this is indeed anime, it's made by a studio that has been around and made good stuff before, voiced by top tier VAs.It is an adaptation of an american work, but it is anime. And you should have issue with someone throwing money at this and making it happen.
DUDE!!!!!! BOUNDARIES!

>>282697952Nakamura too
>>282699628>>282699650>>282699668I blindly picked this up and almost instantly realized it would be utter trash, but this scene still shocked me to my core. How is this real? Who signed off on this?
>>282700057Is that Fabio in the back?
I wonder if they're going to get to the scene where she has her first orgasm
sheeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiit
>>282699018Is this any different from TBATE from this year?
Went blindly because new season hasn't really started and it wasn't that bad.Are you guys shitting on it just because 's origin is western?
I'm filtering this anime title.I refuse to help making the board worse with ironic shitposting.
>>282704213Rather than dismiss you offhand as a complete tastelet or contrarian, I would ask that you elaborate. What about this was even remotely good? What is something that you do consider to be "that bad" and what differentiates that from this?
bad touch... but that's why it's so hot
>>282699634Huh, I've just found out that they made two cat shows back to back
>>282704288Make it worse with unironic shitposting!!
>>282702972arya is walking garbage
>>282704197Yes, because that wasn't about slay qweens and sheeit? TBATE may have been slop, but I don't remember it being particularly woke. But what do I know, I didn't even watch this presumed trash. It sounded like shit from the description before I even learned it was by some white roastie.
>>282706043I mean that they're both korean published stories from westerners.
>>282699650>She's literally being raped by confrontation!I bet that's how roasties feel when they get confronted by anything (like the consequences of their own actions).
>>282701266>slopSlop is at least food, even if only fit for pigs. This shit is just poison. And the poison is baited with an all-star cast of seiyuu too. Fucking despicable.
>>282697210Fuck this show, it looks absolutely abysmal >>282700057>It's basically nerdy woman self insert romanceholy shit not even worth considering.
I'm going to see other episodes but just because I'm interested in watching what are the western tropes these days (I don't watch western comics usually).However, I have also to say that while not extremely bad, the first impression isn't great. It give me the same vibes of some project I saw here in Italy (Adrian and Pap Music),things based on corruption, connections and nepotism that should have never been aired. This one is better, but still, the sensation is that is an astroturfed comic\anime that doesn't deserve the so called "fame" they claim.>>282701680 when I read this author presentation, I think about linkedin bullshit, not art.
>>282706091Wasn’t TBATE from a gook-American?
I was kind of curious to see what Japanese people were thinking of the show, and much to my surprise, because I found the show to terrible, they seem to be enjoying it so far. I read a few posts that remarked on how refreshing they find some of the Western idiosyncrasies present in the series. Personally, I don't think I'm going to continue watching it. It would be one thing if it was bad in an entertaining kind of way, but it is just plain bad.
>>282707736I just checked the 5ch thread and the comments were negative.https://pug.5ch.net/test/read.cgi/anime/1758885481
>>282707827It really feels like the type of self-published trash where the author chased trends and threw everything at the wall to see what sticks.
>>282707736I feel like from an outsider's pov perspective, all the american stuff could be seen as an alien culture gimmick.
>ctrl+f>no "Markiplier"Huh, surprised no one mentioned this is the author's thinly veiled Markiplier fanfic. She's a known Markiplier fan and the streamer/main love interest in this is a half East Asian guy named Marshall.
Last season opener was Takopii and we have the current season has this shit? Not a good sign so far.
Who the fuck paid for this to be made and why
>>282708263What the fuck is a Markiplier>She's [...] knownNo she isn't
>>282708401Guessing crunchyroll as they're a producer
>>282707827To be fair isn't 5ch's userbase mostly middle aged men at this point? This show seems to mostly have a target audience of autistic femoid zoomers, so I can't imagine many men liking it in the first place.>>282708401I would say the jews did it but even the jews are smart enough to realize this cringe would damage the image of California way more than it could ever help it. Maybe it's a psyop. or it could just be LINE webtoon desperately trying to astroturf webtoonslop to foreigners. I see their advertisements all over the place.
>>282708433Anon, I had no idea she existed before this anime either. But all of this information is easily available with a minute of research.>>282708449It's always them, isn't it.
>>282697210>straight romance>they actually get together and have sexInteresting. I remember people saying Lazarus would be woke too, then it ended with the main guy turning a lesbian straight lmfao
>>282708532>I would say the jews did it but even the jews are smart enough to realize this cringe would damage the imageHave you SEEN current Western media?
I watched it.Seems interesting. Might be fresh to have an anime without template Japanese tropes for a change.
>>282699912>BBW OF girl's videoyou can't just say that and not give a name
>>282708401>Who the fuck paid for this to be made and why>7 million subscribersOh I don't know, someone who wants to make money perhaps?
>>282702520she cute
>>282707736Didn't Japs love RWBY? They don't care like /a/ does
>>282708276>Last season opener was Takopii and we have the current season has this shit? Not a good sign so far.Pretty sure there was at least one isekai before this. Last Boss something.
>>282709843White incels protect the true essence of Japan
Would be better if the protagonist wasn't already doing so well. Indie game dev slash nepo baby and future CEO with multiple guys liking her already. Sheesh.It is funny that the computer science major is only seen as worthy of doing data entry even with all that kek how realistic
>Adult reverse harem romance>Not set in a highschool>Not isekai villainess slop>Not strictly office romanceIt even has a big booba hanakana lead. First romance I'm willing to watch in a while
>>282712492>but It was made by a white american womenDropped
>>282701095seconding thisIs it possible to drop a show after 0 episodes? Science says it's not possible, but eureka I've done it.
>>282703392lmao of course it's going to be about "discovering sexuality"
>>282697797If you had to come up with something to get people watch this trash, could you do better?Cringe is the best they have.
>>282709843RWBY was not bad.
>>282711251Actually skilles something was first and had 2nd ep thr same time as this, then last boss, the some sol, then this aired
>>282714144I can't believe I've been on this site long enough to see RWBY apologists
>>282714224People just liked the fights and waifu wars. Nobody is seriously into it any more than that
>>282714224The Shaft series was fine.
>>282714224It had the usual shaft issues, but beyond that it was a nice show.
>>282713475I wouldn't say it's about discovering sexuality, she's just an extremely horny virgin that has a bunch of hot guys around her almost 24/ 7 and she's too anxious to initiate until much later.
>>282700502To be fair it can be taken as a case of your standard reverse harem otome type show with a translator taking way too many liberties with the synopsis. Not that I was expecting the show to be good even if that was the case.
>HanaKana MCwell, guess I am forced to watch it
>>282715923never mind actually, this is so fucking awful, not even HanaKana can make me sit through it
>>282712480that's how western wish fulfillment stories for women always tend to go.they just get everything they want dropped on them instantly and then the only real challenge throughout the story is to decide which of it they want to keep
>>282706124>Office Becky asks me if I can do her job for her>"No.">she gets spiritually rapedNice.
>>282697210Imagine if the genders were changed? Would you watch it?
>>282697210>Samara "Sam" Youngis this korean comics? dropped
>>282717337Worse.
>another actual DEI propaganda in anime format after Lazarusdamn... so this era has finally come... this decade is gonna suck.
>>282716935Yes. Yes and Yes
>>282700057even the source art style is WEG tier. serious question. who funded this garbage? I need names. actual names.
>>282697210I will admit, the ending part where they’re all bumping their heads together was kind of aesthetic.
>>282702454>>282702468>>282702490>>282702520>>282702557>ALL big name seiyuuSeriously, WHO funded this?
>>282700418Is this just going to be like the vtuber anime where they’re try and hook the gamer crowd with seeing what they even do with famous game references.
>>282701822>>282702075Those are 100% Thai names, it even says OLM Thailand.
>>282699650>Then “Adulting” walks over and forces her to do her taxes
>>282717482>vtuber animeI didn't get that one at all. It felt like a show only people already in the know would understand.
Did you at least like the ED anons?https://youtu.be/i9yIl98XyHc?si=ijCdDh4z3fqXwTCc
>>282717579Yeah it went for a hyper niche, and I also think it would heavily confuse people barely know anything about it.
>>282717542>AdultingWhy are millennials such fucking cringebabies
>>282701489>>282717616Thar ED is already going to be in every lofi chill beats to study to edits.
>Starts off as just a comic about game development then devolves into a plot about sex and everyone's mental traumasIf this stays funny bad enough I might keep watching just to see. But I said the same thing about the Vtuber one and dropped that fairly quick.
>>282717941Actually good funnybad shows are very hard to find. And they depend a lot on the surrounding discussion. If the threads are empty or if you have no one to watch it with, it's just torture. Having said that, this does have funnybad potential.
>>282717482The gaming industry can't even hook gaymers with games, what makes them think they can do it with DEI anime? This is such a tone deaf product.
>>282717988True
>>282718023Because they are creating an audience.
>>282718548the modern audience
>>282717386Lesbians turning straight and romance between white men and women is LGBT propaganda?
nnnnnnoooooooooo.... the western audience was supposed to love my story.........
>>282721386First of all, fuck MAL. Fuck MAL in the ass and everyone who posts it as if MAL scores are supposed to mean anything. But having said that, 6 is way higher than this trashfire deserves.
>>282697210I went into with no expectations and Sam seems to be only having health issues? Like it seems to be about video game about a part time game dev whose dad seems rich? There seems to be hinting at romance with the streamer guy? It didn't feel like an anime and more like a netflix cartoon. This is from a webtoon right, who made this?
>>282721985What health issues?
>>282725186She has ligma
>>282725186I don't think they say specifically what it was but from what I remember she was just born super weak and got sick easily so she spent most of her childhood in the hospital.
>>282727763I feel sorry for her now. Rooting for the MC
