You must be that mentally ill faggot that kept posting that twitter screencap about the use of AI in anime.

Anyway, the Nips are right, JJK and similar anime for normalfags have proved once again that subhuman westoids will see some pretty animations and flashy lights and call it "absolute cinema." Truly, they are the equivalent of the mentally infirm being amazed by flashy things.

JJK being regarded as the "nothing but hype moments and aura" manga is a huge western meme too

All the villains in s3 were weird as fuck. Like the guy with a bunch of receipts stuck to him as his only clothing. How are westerners finding that cool or interesting? Is it just because they think "well this is Japanese so it has to be weird right?"

Pretty much all the nonsense that gets said on social media and then reposted here is just pure bullshit made up by western tourists who just started watching in 2020. It's all laughably nonsensical compared to actual otaku subculture as its been portrayed in manga and anime for decades. Here you see it in the complete inversion of sentiment on historic series like NGE, FMA, S;G or how now every manga that gets an anime adaption suddenly gets shitposted to hell and back despite years of quiet threads on the board.

From what I understand, the divide is that the Japanese guys intended for it to be a serious moment of horror and trauma despite the justness of killing everyone but western feminist for some reason I picked up on it as a moment of vagina liberation and personal triumph, it even came with a heroic music score

So what do the Japanese dislike about it? The fact that it's a bunch of silly rule explanations, that it's full of tell not show, the lack of any notable villain or antagonist presence, the convoluted nature of the heroes' plan, the anticlimax it ends on?

S;G is just a disappointing and bad show, I don't care whether you think I'm a tourist but you're acting like S;G is a core pillar of /a/ culture and it's just not.

it's fucking JJK
>>
>>287342022
>you're acting like S;G is a core pillar of /a/ culture and it's just not
Of course it is, that's why it had massive attention all season it was airing and threads that continued for months afterwards with an active community translating side materials.
Only newfags who weren't here in 2011 think S;G is either bad and/or irrelevant
>>
Wow so many dumb people here there is no massive backlash you tards

>>287342022
All you idiots ever say is that it's bad. You weren't here even a decade ago so why pretend like you were? S;G was and is a part of /a/ no matter how much it makes newfags seethe.
>>
>>287342122
>Only newfags who weren't here in 2011 think S;G is either bad and/or irrelevant
This steins;gate shitposting only really began in earnest a couple years ago when FMA:B got dethroned on MAL by Frieren and chainsaw man. Which itself only happened because they're exceedingly popular in the post-covid anime boom.
>>
>>287341953
Some people are obsessed with "media literacy" and claims like "everything is political". I agree with you but for them you can't even eat a sandwich or take a shit without you being an authoritarian leftist alt right fascist marxist whatever the fuck.
>>
>>287336265
They were absolutely correct, fuck normalfags.
>>
>>287342178
>S;G was and is a part of /a/
This isn't even true and you've probably missed the threads where S;G's flaws have been talked about it great detail already.
>>
>>287341882
That's it? Looks like not only people in the US are direction brained.
>>
>>287342223
lumping media literacy (and anons who use it without understanding the term or their own arguments) together with"everything is political" is completely retarded and makes you no better than the political shit-slingers you're lampooning.
There's a grand canyon of a difference between discussing themes and the retard flying in making up headcanon to support his own crackhead theory.
>>
>>287342302
>This isn't even true
Again, you blatantly lie. Anyone who was actually here back then knows you're full of it.
>>
>>287342212
It started earlier than that, originating in the anti-reddit derangement of post-2012 newfags, but it has gotten included in those successive waves of shitposting based around stalking MAL (in the same way the anti-reddit sentiment is pushed entirely by people who spend more time stalking reddit than most people even use all social media combined). It spikes with every wave of newfags like the election tourists after 2015 and the post-covid tourists after 2020.

That's the point.
It's like "people" who flock to 60fps interpolated anime openings in droves and comment about how it improved the original, completely missing the point of animation. They just see smoother framerate and go "Holy shit it looks so amazing! All anime should look this smooth!"
It's people who don't have experience or an eye for animation.
>>
>>287342122
How brainwashed do you have to be to think everyone posting on /a/ in 2011 liked one specific anime? People who didn't like it would either just ignore it or shit on it. There are plenty of other anime that got that kind of attention on /a/ like Geass.
>>
>>287342552
If you like any of these shows you don't belong here btw.

JJK is soulless slop and they shouldn't expect it to be good. They're right about westerners being retarded, but It's too little too late.

>everyone posting on /a/ in 2011 liked one specific anime
Why are you reading the worst faith interpretation of his post so literally? You're actually deluding yourself into reading something that isn't there. Good lord you're fucking retarded
>>
>>287342567
The majority liked it, as was obvious from the amount of attention it got including for months afterward. Geass is another foundational series to /a/ and anyone talking negatively about it is obviously a newfag with shit taste in the same was as anyone who talks shit about FMA or S;G.
>>
>>287342694
the majority of them dont even know jjk exists
>>
Bakemonogatari was the undisputable king of /a/ for the early 10s along with every single Kyoani series. Newfags will call you a pedo for watching Bakemono and Nisemono, it's a great sieve to see who's a tourist and who's not. I don't even like it that much, because after a while I just found it boring around the Hanamonogatari part. Newfags will literally burst into tears the moment they see Araragi touching Hachikuji however.

>You Americans did the same thing with native tribes.
Spouting this nonsense over and over will not make it true, turkish.
You are the only ones who tried, and failed, to genocide the Kurdish, Armenian, Tcherkass, Greek and other minorities, and you are still failing.

Furthermore, the natives were well civilized in the US by the 1910s, but it's still not the case for the turkish who are trying to project their own misdeeds on the US.
>You don’t have any right to speak about it
No, the US has the right to say anything it want; you dont.
>>
>>287342798
Not really, Bake is very quiet nowadays and barely had shitposting in the threads for the most recent series. There's more of that complaining about hypothetical people being offended than actual people being offended, as it always is with these delusions about hypothetical people. Cat-Crab wars back in the day were worse than anything Bake threads get now.
>>
>>287342827
Exactly, tourists who never even knew it existed until the anime. They dont know shit about JJK.
>>
>>287336265
I mean i've been saying this for years about amerilard anime fans. They don't take a story or production as a whole. It's why we get so many people who think you can pick and choose the things you like out of the bible like it's a buffet instead of facing the fact that they're getting obese on empty garbage.

It’s always curious to hear Americans say this, because it means that deep down, they considered the amerindians—and still do—inferior and deserving of genocide.

>nowadays
Duh
Also "muh imaginary boogyman" go read any thread on any post 2020 anime forum or even the comment section of shitty streaming websites, which is a great test to check modern anime audiences. Araragi is constantly called "diddyragi", people crying because they can't recommend the series to their "friends" and such. And it's just a standard romcom with some fanservice and supernatural elements(and great direction, but I have a boner for Shaft), modern anime fans can't even deal with that.

You are dumb spouting debunked anti-US; the so-called "natives" weren't the owner of the land and didn't have any land property rights and were for the most part mere vagrant; and homeless vagrant aren't considered as lawful.

So there are absolument not similarity or equality between your misrepresentation and the anime's scene.
Your manufactured analogy didn't work.

Even putting aside how they handled the tone, the direction of the episode was just weird as fuck. The whole thing felt like it was directed by an alien.

I never cared for Jujutsu precisely because that´s all i saw in it, cool fights. Some sort of poor´s man YuYu Hakusho. All the action, none of the depth. Albeit if we are being completely honest that seems to be the case for anime in general this generation. For the past 15 years or so there´s been a steadily decrease on the quality of storytelling, animation and overall culture of introspection and contemplation that defined the medium on previous generations.

True enough exceptional anime has always been just that, exceptional, one shouldn´t be reductive and cherry pick from a small group of great authors that have aged and stepped down but the real problem is no new authors are stepping up. Probably because the industry just doesn´t provide that kind of opportunities anymore and everyone just wants to play it safe to stay afloat.

Can´t say i know how to fix that, all i can say is that if it´s not fixed the medium is doomed to fall along with the rest of the forms of contemporary cultural expression.
>>
>>287343683
One has to blame in on the source material really, since most anime now is adapted very closely from the source material. Only a few per season are originals. And when you adapt some random LN or mangaka's stuff, the quality is going to vary wildly.

Wasn't this "negativity" just astroturfed by social media grifters to get some tribalistic discussion going? I remember all the nips I follow enjoyed the episode and most of the supposed outrage came from western sources that couldn't even cite anything worth a shit.

No shit you retarded zipperhead fucks, what the fuck else is the point of ANIME? You watch it for the ANIMATION. If you don't care about the ANIMATION, go read the fucking manga, it already exists. Good animation is always the by far most important thing in an ANIMATED MEDIUM.
