>>292197129
I don't know what I'm supposed to do with these posters that are just a bunch of people standing around doing nothing not telling me anything about what happens in the show
so far the only one of these I'd want to watch is the one with the katana and the naked chick and the giant robot
>>
Yes because this was still when seasonal anime was following the old business model of BD sales+merch and targeted otaku. Not like today when everyone is trying to make a streaming hit to western normalfags.
>>
>>292197446
How were Flip Flap threads so civil when Sayonara Lara threads were as excruciating as medieval torture, despite both being huge yuribait shows?
>>
>>292199596
otaku have the worst most garbage taste and all of your favorite anime were made for general audiences except for the ones you know are garbage but like anyway
>>
>>292197129
No.
The 2020s has actually been pretty strong overall.
>>
>>292197129
>only 3 good anime
yes
>>
>>292197446
based
>>
Yes. Simply because it wasn't mostly low effort isekai adaptions
>>
>>292197129
>Mayoiga is there
Absolutely based.
>>
>>292201346
only because isekai wasn't as established as a genre so it was mostly low effort battle harem adaptations
>>
>>292197129
2016 is inside the fuzzy boundary between the post 2008 financial crisis era and the streaming era we currently find ourselves in.
It's also right in the middle of the early digital era, where everyone still mostly used paper for drawing, and the current era where almost everyone has transitioned to using tablets.

So it's hard to say. I think on the balance it was better but it's really kind of all over the place.
>>
>>292201477
Battle harem weren't as widespread back then as isekai are nowadays.
>>
>>292198319
>>erased
>bretty gud
Really nigger? And I was with you until this
>>
>>292201577
isekai isn't as widespread as you think, you just have a hard time reading charts
>>
>>292201625
It is lol, you practically have one per season.
>>
>>292201659
yes, they like having at least one title in each popular genre on offer each season, and battle harems were no different
>>
>>292201625
Isekai is exactly how widespread as I think it is. Both as a proportion of anime airtime minutes and absolute show count.
There's simply no equivalent in the harem/battleharem days to kadokawa by themfuckingselves fielding 54 shows in a calendar year.
>>
>>292202344
there's more variety of storytelling within isekai and the narou competition to kadokawa streaming filler adaptation pipeline is easy to understand once you learn about it so it's not the same singular all-consuming plague as battle harems were, unless you're a dullard who gets overwhelmed by a chart that's too busy and doesn't know how to filter them
>>
>>292197129
>ReLife
you're telling me there are people out there who would want to go back to highschool knowing everything they know now? pretty far-fetched if you ask me.

>>292197129

>>
>>292197129

>>
>>292202613
You're objectively wrong. Per minute and absolute.
