No one asked
>>284037546>why zoomers have shit taste They don’t necessary have shit taste but they overrate a lot of stuff. Pretty much every season since Covid zoomers have rated some anime a 9/10.If we let zoomers have it their way Oshi No Ko would be considered a top 20 anime .This is reflected in MAL ratings. A 9/10 today would be a 8-8.5/10 a decade or 2 ago
>>284037546You probably know better than anyone here. The oldfags aren't kids anymore and the shounenshitters don't have taste.
>>284037590I am old as dirt
>>284037546>Gundam 08th teamYour tastes are shit and I say this as a UC fanboy.
>>284037546Your taste isn't any better and you can't even spell Satoshi.
>>284037657>I am old as dirt
They have shit taste in everything.
>>284037546Jujutsu Kaisen is like quintessential normie taste to me. Liking the anime is a litmus test for whether you got into anime post COVID or not and people who still enjoy the manga are just retards with Stockholm syndrome
>>284037546>Stashi kons
>>284037978You can't expect zoomers to get punctuation right when they're near illiterate.
>>284037546Sorry but you said you are 22 and then used the word "slop" so you can fuck off, and the irony of half your liked list is apparently lost on you, and at least practice pretending to have taste before you make these posts
>>284038105Fuck off bitch
>>284037546>I am 22 years oldso is 4chan
>>284037546>I am 22 years old and hate Dandan and most modern slopi am 33 and i like dandadan. you're literally behaving like the "im not like the other girls" women
>>284037546I'm nearly 40 and I enjoy Dandandandandan, its fun and well animated.
>>284037546You're an idiot. But I'll break some even worse news too you. Zoomers, like yourself, don't have BAD taste. Oh not it's far worse. To say they had bad taste would be implying they had any taste at all. They have NO taste. The entire generation of newfaggots have the entire world at their fingertips and do they actually take advantage of it to watch everything they can? No. They get recommendation lists. They follow popular opinion. They do everything they can to explore the hobby as little as possible and make sure they fit in with whatever forum or reddit they're trying to fit in with. You have EVERYTHING you could possible want and you don't engage with the hobby. You're all idiots. Just a bunch of awful parasites latching onto blind media consumption to make up for a lack of personality and a lack of actual friends.
>>284037546>Why do zoomers have shit taste in anime>I am 22 years oldYou tell us, Zoomer.
>>284037546> 08th MS TeamPatrician taste good sir.
Go watch You're Under Arrest.
>>284037546>My favorite anime is>kekkai sensen
You are a zoomer and you have shit taste
>>284037546>gurren lagann
>>284037827Got into manga in 2007 (technically read a bit before that, but that's neither here nor there). Watched anime for 8 years prior to that. I liked JJK, even if half the last arc was dogshit. It's okay to enjoy dumb fun battle manga. The problem is when people treat it like the pinnacle of storytelling. But /a/ hates fun so what's the point in even saying this?
>>284038317>>284038337Nearly 33. DanDaDan is excellent. I think this literal child just wants to feel better about being a fucking hipster.
Guy who's favorite series are award winning shows with english dubs airing on streaming sites be like "why does everyone else like slop?"
>>284037546Anime gets worse by the year and the most vocal fans don't watch older stuff. In fact, they don't even watch modern stuff. They just look at 30 second clips of it on tiktok/youtube and think they know the entire story.
>>284038364It's worse. They don't even watch stuff, they look at summary videos and clips of it. It's like using sparknotes instead of reading the book you were assigned, but solely so they can avoid FOMO and pretend they watched it for online discussions.
>>284038661It's honestly depressing.
>>284037546You have it wrong. Normalfags have shit taste and the largest group of normalfags who watch anime are zoomers and young millenials.
>>284037546Another thread of a zoomer complaining about zoomers.
>>284038804watching a retard chimp out for the camera on youtube is not the same thing as actually watching the show
>>284037590Do you guys see 96ers as zoomers or millennials? because some charts say the start of zoomers and others say the end of of millennials.
>>284037546>ibo>paprika>sprigganholy shit taste.
>>284037546
>>284037546What's the point of mecha anime? I liked Gurren Lagann, but most aren't like it, right? I find battles where there isn't much of a "fight between spirits/hearts", they can grow within it and and people's raw emotion plays at least a small part in how well they do, to be uninteresting (assuming the fights are a central aspect, I'm also fine with anime that don't have much action; just if they focus on the fights, that's how they should be). Gundam isn't like that seeing how machines can't change based on the mental state of the user, right?
>>284037546>making your whole personality around cartoonsgrow up
>Recently find out that zoomers watch their shows on speeds faster than 1.0Fucking why? How important is your day that you have to literally speedrun entertainment?
>>284037546>I am 22 years oldGet the fuck out.Contrary to popular belief, 4chan is not for 18-34 year olds, its for people born between 1985-1995.If you're outside that range, get the hell out.
>>284039008Okay, boomer.
>>284038851I've literally seen a chart end millennial at 95 and start zoomer at 97, so no clue. We're in between the generations and it doesn't feel like we belong to either.>>284038958It's the short form content from vine to tiktok destroying attention spans. They need to get through whatever they're watching fast to watch the next thing.
>>284037546I'm 26, my favorite anime are Hidamari Sketch, Brigadoon and Samurai Flamenco. I like Dandadan and most of modern anime, because unlike you, I actually like anime.I think that you are a baiting faggot who's ruining this board.
>>284037546>Why do zoomers have shit taste.>t. zoomerIt's not generation vs generation, it's just that the majority of people in all groups are retarded, have no great skill or are just mediocre or worse.
>>284037546> Spriggan: P
>>284037546>No RedlineFaggot.
>>284037546Dandaniel is a great anime. Stop trying to impress unctards.
>>284038851The people born in the beginning and end of a generation have their own subgeneration.
how do i unsubscribe from this blog?
>>284037546I'm 29 and I don't care about what people watch and I like what I like, if it's old cool, it's new cool,popular cool, obscure cool, doesn't matter to me.
>>284037827Nah as an oldfag if you don’t like JJK you’re either contrarian or have shit taste. A shounen battle manga with lightning pace and actually competent, truly evil villains is very nice. Gege is a good new talent and I’m glad his manga has had such success.
>>284037546I'm 21 my favorite anime are 1.kara no kyoukai2.Monogatari3.Clannad4.Kaminomi5.Haruhi6.Saekano7.Highschool DxD8.Railgun9.Arakawa under the bridge10.gup11.FLCL12.Chunibyo13.Katanagatari14.Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei15.Ruri Rocks16.Prisma Illya17.Seitokai Yakuindomo18.Date a Live19.Kamisama memchou20.DanmachiI like what I like
Friend has me watch, DanDanDan, JJK, Hunter x hunter, solo leveling and its all slop bros.Showed me a slice of life show and a couple of eps in he asked me if there was a big bad or plot that hadnt started yet.Dude just doesnt get it
>>284040323showed him*
>>284040341Nomralfag*
>>284037546>I am 22 years old and hate Dandan and most modern slopstopped reading here
>>284037546They don't have shit taste because they don't have a taste, they just watch whatever is popular for the clout they did and to vibe with others.You need consciousness to develop taste, most zoomzooms and younger hell spawns are just flesh automatons that exist as collective.
Try to show my zoomer friend Evangelion. Long story short, imagine two bloke sitting, beers in hand, watching episode 4 where shinji is just looking depressed and theres just cicadas chirping."i promise it gets better dude"
>>284038364it's not entirely their faultwhen you live in a ridiculously connected world, you can't help but connect with external opinionsand no man can isolate himself from his environmentwe had the luck of living in a world where you had no choice but to think for yourself, or at least locallythe internet literally rewires your brain, it's like your neurons are no longer just inside your headand it's not like the oldfags are immune, just somewhat resistant
>>284040496i have 0 social media, i only have phone service for job convenience and use a 8 year old phone. I only visit this website and youtube but avoid watching anything with a streamer host.I have pretty much kept living same life i did in 2009.
>>284037546>yo guys I'm 12 but I totally hate modern music they stopped making real music in the 70s amirite boomerskys
>>284040535that's admirable, and I have similar practicesbut we're outliersit takes a lot of technological literacy to live like that, ironicallyand even we are affected by the ubiquity of the internet
>>284040535Either you are a pariah or you made friends before the modern system truly took off. Younger people don't have this luxury.
>>284040600dubs mean youre righton a funny note i work moderating social media for a company, but i dont see it as me engaging, participating or enjoying it. Its just work, the program we use grabs posts off x, facebook, reddit or instagram so i dont even know how those sites function, its a special type of ironic hell. Coworkers that know me ask the same thing. but i dont use social media on a personal level, not even to doomscroll during a break
>>284038907>Gundam isn't like that seeing how machines can't change based on the mental state of the user, right?Gundam is still pretty much in the spirit of super mechaeven setting aside the literal psychic powers that work off emotions, the fights are pretty much duels of competing idealsbut to answer your question>What's the point of mecha anime?it used to be equal parts aforementioned sci-fi samurai battles and technology pornbut then everyone went 3D and pretty much deleted the technological marvel aspectwhich is why mecha is a dead genreGurren Lagann actually revived super robot genre, it made it cool againbefore that it had been mostly reduced to kiddie grade, real mecha was the shitmazingers, don't pounce at me, it's true
>>284040535>>284038364Why you are acting so high and mighty thinking you’re better than people just because you have better taste in Chinese cartoons (you don’t)You think you’re a free thinker, but you’re just part of the /a// hivemind instead of the Instagram/TikTok hivemind.
>>284037546>I was born in the wrong generation
>>284040869>but then everyone went 3D and pretty much deleted the technological marvel aspectInteresting idea, if studios are forced to use CG in their mecha shows because of the nature of resource allocation I wonder if they should consider inverting the formula, have their 3D team focus on characters and the 2D team on mechs.
>>284040480Not a show to watch with friends, I think.
>>284041379His point was that OP was acting superior to anyone at all. Nobody wants to hear about OP's tastes, and bragging like that is something to grow out of.
08th MS Team is garbage
>>284041463
Meh, I'm 21 and my favourites are>Captain Harlock>Ashita no Joe>Saint Seiya>Hokuto no Ken>urusei yatsura (original)>Shin-chan (including the movies)>Ressentiment (manga)>Gundam + Z + CCA + War in the pocket>Detroit metal cityYou don't need to seek vaditation, normies always had bad taste. The actual sin that our generation commits is watching tiktok and youtube instead of watching the actual anime.
>>284039149Based favorites
>>284038851I know people what to categorize but I’ve always thought the genre naming of generations has been pretty cringe. Also are we really calling the next one Gen Alpha, that’s a terrible name, especially in relation to the others.
>>284037546Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory is the best Gundam series on the other hand Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway is a masterpiece.One Piece anime was great until end of Enies Lobby. On the other hand studio WIT doing remake The One Piece.Romance anime evolved. No more same steps over and over again.There is plenty of examples if you think about it. Old ones are great and shit and new ones are great and shit.
>>284043494>Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway is a masterpiece.How is this opinion even possible. Not to mention we only have 1 of 3 movies.
>>284037546You have exchanged zoomer slop for millennial slop.If you had been born 20 years earlier these are the exact same shows you would have derided while talking about how much you love Zeta Gundam and Macross.
>>284037581a 9 today would be much less than that 2 backe then
>>284038317>>284038337Looks fun but I'm not into nonsense comedy

>>284038613>>284045122OLD GOOD NEW BAD! I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION!
I don't come here to hear about you, or how old you are, or where you grew up, or the garbage you like, or why you are superior to boomerzoomermillennials because they were born in an arbitrary year.I come here to exchange information about anime. This thread isn't funny or enlightening.
>>284045103ok, and?
>>284041852this is the most hipster garbage ass list i've seen so far. who the fuck likes dmc for more than 1 or 2 episodes?
>>284045294It makes you seethe, but you can never prove otherwise, little cunt with zero good content
>>284045461Just saying
>>284045510>hipstermost of those are great classics
the quality of discussion sure took a nosedive with the last fifteen or so replies
>>284045622Either talk about anime or fuck off.
>>284046919sixteenand my posts have more anime in them than yours
>>284037546If you’re really 22 you’re a grown man now so it’s time to stop using words like “zoomer”
>>284045103If you think Dandadan is nonsense comedy, I wonder what you'd think of early 2000's favorites like cromartie and excel saga
>>284037546I want korean moot to bring back the IP counter and to show country of origin. How many of you little shit posting fucks are Indian? Maybe that would save this board.

>>284047596>instead of just copying and pasting popular normalfag stuff.>while posting that list
Shut up zoomie
>>284040496>and no man can isolate himself from his environmentNo, but it's not like we weren't connected some 20 odd years ago, the internet and all it's shitty influences is hardly a new phenomena. The fact that they're so cripplingly addicted to social media is distressing.
>>284041852Giga based. I'm 24 and one of my favorites also include Ashita no Joe. Other shit I also like is Getter Robo, VOTOMS, Hikaru no Go, and 1999 HxH
>>284037546>complains about shit taste>favourites include IBO and fucking 08th MS Team
>I'm 24 and my favourites are>I'm 21 and my favourites are>I'm 19 and my favourites are>I'm 18 (14) and my favourites areI'm 40.
>>284049620>No, but it's not like we weren't connected some 20 odd years agoof course we weren't, not nearly to the same degreepicrel was published in 2008, connectivity was considered novel and noteworthy at the timephones changed the equation dramatically
>>284049967>I'm 40.whippersnapper
>>284037680NTA, and not disagreeing with you on what you said about his tastes, but at least he didn't stay Stardust Memories. He did say Iron Blodded Orphans, though.
>>284051674neither of those anons, and IBO is both very good and the most tomino-like non-tomino gundam I can think of
>>28404974808th MS is good, BUT there is a very high likelihood of liking it for the wrong reason which is to say muh realism muh gritty war story
>>284038105The guy is a retard but the list is good
>>284037546>I hate shounenshit>I love the absolute worst shounenshit gundamYou're just a retard contrarian idk
>>284051944What's the correct reason to like it?
>>284037546Dandadan is great and follows an insane amount of old tropes and aesthetics even down to classic events like tests of courageIt’s like the shining example of what anime has been and can be at its best
>>284051944It's good but it's not even the best Gundam OVA, just the most popular one so newfags latch on to it right away. The best one is War in the Pocket
>>284052700>old tropes and aesthetics even down to classic events like tests of courageBasic Japanese culture is now "old tropes and aesthetics".
>>284040480Anyone who isn’t enthralled by the first three minutes of episode 1 isn’t worth watching anime with.NGE is mind blowing from the jump even if you’re fooled into thinking it’s going down conventional narrative lines, movie grade art and animation with pornography level military/mech/train fanservice including launch sequences that should make the viewer do the looney tunes wolf ogling reaction. By episode two you get fantastic sequences like the emergence of the city as Misato’s gift for Shinji that should make it painfully clear how much more authentic and close to the heart the series is going to be, with dialogue already directly spelling it out any time Ritsuko and Misato talk about Shinji. The first half of Eva is the undisputed peak of the medium and the entire reason the second half broke through to stratospheric infamy.
>>284052748Next you’re going to say school festivals are just part of Japanese culture and have no special meaning in otaku media lol
>>284038613Anime is at it's highest point in the nearly 30 years since the transition to digital. You are too young to even know how bad it got.
>>284037546I tried to show him that Dandadan had no story and was just a series of absurd and unconnected moments, and he told me that wasn't true.Then I asked him why he liked it so much, and after talking for a while, we realized that he liked shitposting.To be honest, after thinking about it a lot, I came to two conclusions.1-TikTok is rotting the brains of a lot of people, not just zoomers or millennials, it's somewhat independent of age. The Chinese have found the perfect way to feed opium to Westerners. I wish they would stop taking revenge on me for what the British did.2- Character development devours the story. No matter how absurd a situation is, what matters is how the character reacts to that situation.That's why anime like Chainsaw Man or Dandadan are popular. They're a mix of somewhat interesting characters and a baby rattle. I'm tired.
>>284054596Fuck, this is too real...
>>284054723it's funny because Kiki is a character driven show like Dandadan>>284054596plotfags filtered again.
>>284054596It honestly just sounds like you're a sperg
>>284054596Character moe has been a heavy focus in anime for a generation, maybe it’s just not for tourists like you

>>284056283>>284057613Those School Days and Haruhi score drops are fucking criminal. Are people serious getting that much more retarded?
>>284037546I hate mecha in general
>>284057772>>284057792Its genuine proof that basically only giga hype shonen or normalfag friendly anime will get improved scores while non-normalfag friendly anime will drop in score as time goes on.
>>284058000Is Haruhi NOT normalfag friendly though? I love Haruhi so I'm not saying this as some kind of slight but how would normies not love it? It's a school "SOL" with a twist and they love that kind of gimmick.
>>284058053Most normalfags that I have seen try to get into it end up hating haruhi leading to them dropping the show.
>>284037546Yours is shit too tho. Save for Paprika and Blood Orphan
>>284058109Always loathed this kind of argument when it comes to media. Of course a shitty main character can ruin a story that's for sure, but Haruhi isn't a shitty main character, she's just A piece of shit who has to slowly learn to not be a piece of shit. Can people really not enjoy an anime if they don't morally agree with every single character?
>>284058190>Can people really not enjoy an anime if they don't morally agree with every single character?anon, thats why they are normalfags and usually mentally retarded cattle
>>284058000Which giga hype shounen scores should I check, I don't know since I don't watch them?
>>284058203one piece, hxh, bleach etc, then compare those scores over time to jjk, mha, csm etc for now shonen placement scores to see how they match overtime from air date to eventual tenure
>>284058053For as much as people will reminisce about Haruhism, the flip side is that at the time the social phenomenon was criticized precisely for being attractive to entry level fans who just want to do the trendy dance at a con and don’t even watch the 10-20 major series that Haruhi itself was influenced by. Her bitchy personality itself was somewhat emblematic of how the new generation of casual fans were perceived.
>>284057772>>284057792zoomer hereharuhi is boring
>>284058247>one pieceThis one would actually be super interesting to see. It's the only one that's really had an anime running this entire time. (no Bleach doesn't count) Curious to see just how much its score has shot up.
>>284058330Im going to wage that virtually every shonen has increased in a large surplus, normalfags will inflate the shit out of those scores, especially post pandemic now.
>>284058356Well yeah but that's why One Piece would be interesting to look at, JJK, MHA, and CSM weren't around in 2013.
>>284058330>>284058356>>284058375also to further add "One Piece fan letter" released in 2024 is a 9.02 on mal, #13 and it's 24 minutes of filler and fan service for op fans.
>>284057613Steins;Gate has to be one of the most overrated anime ever just off of these scores.

majority of users on /a/ have shit taste. just look at the catalog. t.zoomzoom
>>284058701>proceeds to post dollfight dong dong hua hua dong slop
>>284058666>One Piece:>2008: 8.391 (scored by 10060 users)>2013: 8.661 (scored by 102817 users)>2018: 8.541 (scored by 426,658 users)>2023: 8.691 (scored by 1,220,569 users)>Now: 8.731 (scored by 1,481,286 users)Actually a bit surprised how consistent this is. No big swings up or down.
>>284058666so basically shonen either slightly declines with a growing base or goes up while everything else consistently declines as more people watch.
>>284057583It’s kind of pointless to talk about moe because it suffuses every aspect of the medium and its reception. I think it’s fair to delineate a special temporal place for the insular, highly stylized productions that are typically associated with moe but you should be able to see immediately how characters like Kobeni and Vamola flow directly from that time as well.
>>284054596Certain hobbies like anime, movies, comics etc were a solo hobby that people just so happened to do together. So time was if you fond someone who enjoyed the same things, you would enjoy discussing them. The fandom arose from the hobby. Now it feels like the only reason people do anything is to try and fit in. That's why tastes have been come so homogenized and shitty. Nobody wants to risk rocking the community. They do it for the sake of talking to anyone. So instead of being like before the hobby has come to exist purely for the fandom.
>>284037546You're so special. Congratulations.
>>284057792Modern audience doesn't like morally ambiguous characters, and Haruhi is kinda abusive and totally not politically correct. The more morally ambiguous or taboo content, the worse score drop. Maybe shounen makes the lines of good and evil which is why zoomers love it. Or could be that long-running shounen are just more appealing over time. Slice of life seems to be doing fairly ok. Not sure why Nana's score is flat, because it's a women version of romance trainwreck kind of similar to School Days. Maybe women find it more relatable.
>>284057613Zoomers are mentally ill
>>284058820It's true that getting into the mess that is moe in anime would be enough for a thesis And it's true that the two examples you gave fall within the moe classification, but my response was directed at this sentence.>Character moe has been a heavy focus in anime for a generation, maybe it’s just not for tourists like youBased on that, I stand by my statement that it is incorrect to call Chainsaw Man and Dandadan moe, because even though they have moments that could fall under the moe category, saying that those anime have a “heavy focus” on it is incorrect.These anime fall into the shonen fighting category.
>>284052702My thoughts exactly
>>284037546>>284041852For me its:>Berserk 1997>Neon Genesis Evangelion>Gurren LagannI also like, but wouldn't put it at the same tier as the above:>Shinsekai Yori>Frieren>Sonny boy>Chainsawman >Death note23, btw
>>284057772>>284057792I didn't like Haruhi much back in the day, but my god, it looks like a masterpiece compared to the absolute garbage coming out now.
>>284059835I never caught the appeal myself either but I certainly prefer the days when that was the trendy kind of thing
>>284037546I'm 33 and have been watching anime since I was a little kid, but I stopped last year. the only anime I have enjoyed since the pandemic is Tengoku Daimakyou. Frieren is shit, Oshi no Ko is shit, every post-covid romcom and comedy is shit, LN adaptations and isekai are shit, it's all shit. I've seen enough good anime and don't need anything new, I will just rewatch one of my old favorites when in the mood to watch anime.
>>284040535>0 social mediaWhy? Its not such a big deal Im using fb the last 3 years I dont talk to no one I do not put likes only if is a hot chick and dont bother commenting either. The news are great, is full of memes and it made me laugh more than 21years in this shithole in only 3 years. I dont post pics neither and I dont post my photo ever.
And I dont accept invitation of no one and the fb is blocked just like you can do with the psn account. Try it.
You just post your hobbies and you will get memes and news of it. Also you can block content easy and it will never ever appear anymore.
>>284051903>IBO is both very good1st season is fine.2nd season is just retarded.>the most tomino-like non-tomino gundam I can think ofAbsolutely fucking not.
>>284061656IBO demographic was getting girls into gundam that show is for girls.
>>284057613This is why aggregate scores are meaningless.
>>284040277Based
>>284051944As someone who has served in my country's military at a time of peace, I liked the casual moments of the camp personnel. If only there was more of it like the intro promised. And more of those realistic operations and gritty war story. Fuck the Apsalus though.>>284052702>>284059343>War in the PocketHow can you like that godawful thing?
>>284053232Did you learn that from a youtube short? Good for you!
>>284062654What's wrong with War in the Pocket?
>>284063178Nothing. It's one of the best. Maybe the best.
>>284038661>implying i ever touch stuff just because its FOMOPathetic. If i wanted to see it i'll see it. If it looks like boring zoomerslop i just never touch it. And no i will NEVER watch Eva Rebuilds
>>284047445Haven't seen comartie, but I've seen excel saga. Didn't like it eitherIt's just a kind of comedy that I don't like
>>284053135they are trite trope that lost their appeal long time ago thanks to overmilking and now means nothign even if they are done well, like so many anime tropes
>>284054821>plotfags filtered again.bad/no plot = bad
>>284055455Moeshitters must hang
>>284063711>bad = badI agree>no plot = badI do not agree
>>284058827Fandoms are always cancer
>>284063606This
>>284063756with no plot, or a plot with holes etc, you are jsut watching a collection of disconnected meaningless scenes.basically you are watching nothing.Same with a story with no characters.Or writing with no grammar.You can disagree with facts all you want, it's your prerogative. Eppur si muove
I watched as many "cultured" shows as I could and my happiest memories are stuff like watching Erased and Rezero with the rest of the internet. I haven't seen anyone enjoy an anime as much as the snippets of /a/ watching Code Geass together. The true best anime are the friends we make along the way.
>>284063178>>284063244The kid was extremely annoying and we rarely got a break from him. There was little mecha action in War in the Pocket and the Hygogg was ugly as sin.
>>284063178>>284063244Actually now that I think about it, War in the Pocket is like Michael Bay's Transformers. The robots are kinda ugly and they appear sparsely here and there while most of the screentime is spend on a grating jackass.
>>284063973Hell yeah brother sometimes /a/ is alright. Girls Last Tour, Sorayori, Houkago Teibou, Akiba Maid War, were some of the most fun threads i ever experienced in this shithole
>>284063973Spacy Dandy with Toonami General on /co/ was my favorite. We crashed 4chan on one occasion with how fast those threads were going. Moot had to impose smaller site wide thread limits because of those threads.
>>284064235>The Hygogg was ugly as sinIm afraid your shit taste is terminal and can only be cured by a bullet to the dome
Nobody likes born in the wrong generation fags
>>284065480Nobody likes retards who think their present is always the peak and nothing ever get better or worse
>>284038907>I liked Gurren Lagann, but most aren't like it, right?yes, most are like it because gurenn lagann is like most mecha anime you stupid fag
>>284064431>Am pretty! Durrrr
>>284061656you're welcome to provide counterexamples>>284065975>gurenn lagann is like most mecha animethat was nowhere near true when gurren lagann airedmost mecha were like gundam or maybe full metal panicand it's only a bit more true nowso, no
>>284037546>Gundam blood orphansGo to /m/, they're going to make you a man there
>>284037827>Jujutsu Kaisen is like quintessential normie taste to me. Liking the anime is a litmus test for whether you got into anime post COVID or notNigga, I've been watching anime SINCE FIVE because it was 70% of the TV shows for kids in my country. Jujutsu Kaisen is fine, the Season 1 is kinda weak, Season 2 is really good.
>>284038364HOLY MOTHER OF BASED. It's not only among Gen Z too. Anyone who got into anime recently only bases his opinions on the general consensus, no one actually explores the medium or just says "this series that everyone likes is kinda bad" or vice versa.
>>284038851Some people refer to the 96-00 generation as Zilennials, where they didn't grow up with Internet since childhood but it was still present in their formative years, so they can't 100% fit with either Gen Z or Millenials. I think it's a good distinction t. Born in 1998
>>284063724
>>284061656>1st season is fine.The first season felt a bit like edgy Turn A to me. It's a strange feeling that most people won't agree with.
>>284049967I take it that you're frequenting the Detective Conan Daily Case
>>284057613Steins;Gate is so overrated compared to everything else here.
>>284066962I was born in 1996. Only utilized the Internet in my adolescence and got into pre-2000s anime as a result. Because I first anime through TV prior to my adolescence (Cartoon Network Philippines, then Animax Asia), I think differently from other anime fans I encountered. However, I've not touched much anime made in the mid and late 2010s, and even less from those that came out in the 2020s.The one thing I can say about anime fans these days (as in those born in the 2000s and whom Japanese companies are catering to), is that it's an uphill battle to cater to them. They wouldn't enjoy anything more than 12 episodes for starters.
>>284069415Nobody was ever born in 1996
>>284038364This. I have talked to a moronic zoomer who in an argument sourced Tiktok slop and reddit posts to explain that One piece is the best and most influential anime ever made, while being incapable of actually formulating their own opinion. Zoomers live in a huge echo chamber desperate to appear as experts without actually taking the time to explore the medium. They don't even know why they like what they like
>>284063178very contrived writing, not bad but definitely overrated.
>>284037546>I AM NOT LIKE LE OTHER ZOOMERSok
>>284037546I'm almost 25I like:Girls Band CryRozen Maiden (I also like the manga)ShimonetaI watch whatever the fuck I want whenever I want
>>284071397>I watch whatever the fuck I want whenever I wantSame. That's the beauty of the Internet.
