Yaiba was snubbed so hard from so many people's 2025 AOTY lists and awards. Did that many people really not watch this?
>>287218280While I love Yaiba, I do think that it's a product of its time. Most people just don't care for this format of manga or anime anymore. Anything too straight forward that doesn't lend to discussions lack staying power. It's a beautifully animated anime though and more people should watch it.
>>287218280It was so formulaic and boring, just a clone of other products of its era. Didn't deserve that budget, Japs just worship famous people and this was made by a famous guy
>>287218280The content is pretty bad, but then again, JJK content is just as bad, if you ask me I would blame the artstyle.
>>287218280Remake of an obscure anime from an unknown author in the west. These things happen.
i knew it was gonna fail because i already experienced this when the dragon quest Dai no daibouken remake came out>only anons that watched it as a kid care about it and participate in threads>outside 4chan you'll just see a bunch of retard zoomers comparing it to dragon ball because it's the only anime they've watched in their entire life>3 episodes later all the zoomers are gone and only anons keep up with it until it's over
>>287219740I was a newcomer to dai and i thought it was amazingYaiba just has an unlikable cast
>>287218280It's just not that good. Nothing this author has ever done is good. Japan fellates him hard.
>>287218280I don't watch battle shonen
>>287218280Nowadays the anime audience are 90% normalfags that don't know shit about anime or manga, it was indeed a fantastic anime and I can't wait for the second season.
>>287222087>implying this will get a second season
>>287219740well, same happened with new soul hunter years ago
