GiftedACIII 09/09/24 2:32:33 PM #102:	I also really dislike Akira. Plot is pure edgelord with no likable characters and the great animation for its time didn't really impact me since I first watched it in 2017. I'd take Devilman over that any day. Sufferedphoenix posted... I don't get the appeal of slice or life anime. As a concept I can see why some people would like it but the few I've seen it's like the execution was always very lacking and there was just this vibe I can only describe as empty. Closest I've enjoyed is gravitation but that's more a romance with some comedy anime and even it suffered a tad from the empty feeling. Had I need read most of the manga series I probably would have walked away from it too. Idk my brain is wired weird if there isn't a active conflict that requires fighting I'm generally not interested and this spreads across most media tv movies games etc. it's weird cause I'm borderline pacifist Romance and comedy are slice of life as are coming of age stories. Perhaps you mean slice of life where nothing really happens? Although if you need fighting in your stories that would be more of a personal thing, yeah. Anyway, my confession for the topic is that I consider Chase the best Jojo OP. --- </topic> <cite>GiftedACIII posted [p:982056251] in What is yo...

That's not to say I hate it, but best anime ever on MAL is a bit too much IMO. Clannad dropped the ball. I feel like they focused way too much on filler comedy to the point After Story had to happen. I enjoyed Kanon with it's level of comedy and drama mix but I just felt like Clannad was just way too damn egged on to the point I never even finished it.

Anyways, horny crap is the single most devastating thing to anime and all problems stem from it (barring development jank). Additionally it makes at the absent of public display of affection to be odd. Especially if it's an anime and you're not having real people displaying onscreen affection. And besides the double standard (i.e. You can have Roshi perving over even teenage girls, but Gohan and Videl having a consensual kiss is too much), well often for comedy you have the girl getting too mushy and the guy (main character or no) looks less like he's trying to show restraint, but more that he doesn't favor getting affectionate with his love. Odd as you know anime and manga don't have an issue letting characters be flawed, but again guy acts disguisted 100% at returning his gal's affection just cause his non-existing boy scout image is on the line. --- Amalgam Universe resident Born in 82. <cite>Antiyonder posted [p:982096750] in What is yo...

Super_Slash 09/12/24 5:18:14 AM #139:	Frieren is not THAT great. It just isn't. Certainly not good enough to warrant the explosive popularity. Naruto is shit. It's amazing what nostalgia goggles can do. It has a few good moments and Kishimoto was really good at building up hype, but now that the manga is over, in retrospect it was never that great. MHA is overrated as hell even if it is pretty decent. Fairy Tail is legit one of the best shounen out there. Most hentais are complete garbage. <cite>Super_Slash posted [p:982097222] in What is yo...

This describes all of OPM, tbqh. Just a single gag character plopped into the most generic shounen cast you can imagine. Serious arcs are only serious because said gag character is sidelined for 99% of the arc. The HUGE problem with this is that A) hes supposed to be the main character, and, much more importantly, B) hes one of the only characters who is even a little bit interesting. <cite>Kami_no_Kami posted [p:982105299] in What is yo...
