Is an odd complaint, though? Elitism and anime go almost hand-in-hand =p

It's elitism to dislike immature storylines with immature characters? Cool. I am officially an elite then.

...I literally mentioned Moribito IN THIS TOPIC within the past week. And no, it's not incredible, it's a mediocre fantasy anime with awful pacing issues, characterization problems, etc.

I must have missed your post about Moribitio. Funny you should mention the pacing issues, because I've always used that anime as a good indicator of who has the attention span of a gnat, and who can just sit back and enjoy the slow and smooth ride. It's definitely not made for kids, because they'd probably fall asleep after the first episode. "Where are all the explosions and boobs and bubbly characters that speak with emojis floating over their heads!?!?! I can't process this!!!" lol. Characterization problems? Yeah. It's a hard pill to swallow because it's so unusual. The characters aren't bipolar idiots in middle school, and the main female protagonist never has a love interest and is never sexualized. It's basically anti-anime.

People who dislike animes like Moribitio, tend to love stuff like One Piece and Dragon Ball.

Wolf's Rain is the kind of anime I'd like to like (simply because wolves masquerading as people is a neat idea), but I hated the character designs, the story was goofy, you had that awful final arc that killed off like everybody -- although the walrus fight was badass, etc.

That final arc is one of the best things about the series. Very few animes (or tv shows in general) have the balls to do something like that. What did you hate about the character designs? I thought they were pretty good. And the production values for the whole series were pretty solid throughout. And yer damn right about that walrus fight. lol
