Don't worry, it isn't.

thread

not this naruto-tier shit again

Reddit:Zero

Haven't watched this but God the fanbase is cancerous.

It really wasn't that good

I barely got done binge watching it, it's alright, the beginning reeked of steins;gate though

Why is everyone praising this shittier rehash of Steins;Gate?

all the praise for this episode kinda make me want to watch the show. but honestly i'm just sick and tired of isekai stories, wether it's in anime, manga or LN/WN. i've read/watched enough of these, i'm just tired of it.
maybe i'll marathon it in a few years.

the part where it showed he was just suddenly frozen was on point

Bonfires man. Bonfires.

It really was that good though. I'd say way above average.

It's not worth watching this anime JUST for this episode. If you like watching characters getting their just deserts I guess you'd enjoy it. But I still don't like sitting through a character being cringey, irrational, and all around stupid.

Everyone just praising it because shock value similar to Elfen Lied or Higurashi

youtube.com/watch?v=UIX_-AMuAhY


>Minute 1.45
>Betelgeuse uses Authority of Sloth.

The amount of contrarians just evidences how good it really is

no. that's not what it usually means.

We finally have our AOTS and AOTY contender.

Call an average tier show good. Some people agree, some don't
Call a good show good. 50 people out of nowhere call it absolute shit

Your right user, Sword Art Online was also a good show but everyone just wanted to be contrarian.

Sup Forums universally liked Steins;Gate when it was airing faggot like everyone else. Everyone just looking for non gary stu characters so they'll put anything on a pedestal.

youtube.com/watch?v=yIJyxJQovdY
Let me tell you a story little boy. a Tale of a Dark Lady whose power was devoid of limit. And when her lover, the Dark Lord of Cinder died. She maddened and dwelled in ways to revive him but alas, not even necromancy could fullfill the void she had came to have. Perpetual winter, as if time had frozen came to the land until the witch found a gap. And from that gap of fate, she sucked into her world the alternative version of her loved lord, a young naive and powerless human teen named....Subaru.
A Nameless Accursed Undead. Unable to find piece until he is reunited with the one who so brought him forth into the world.

and what happens when you call a bad show good? like with klk?
same thing.

Steins;Gate (the VN) is good.

Nobody cares because not many people watchbad shows.

Arguably average
Difference is SAO wasn't well liked (read:not popular, liked) even outside of Sup Forums, unlike this

It's a bad show, get over it.

No, you fucking idiot, this is just the new wave of trolls and fucking newfags that enjoy spitting on everything just for the sake of doing it. Sup Forums universally loved shows like Madoka Magica or Disappearance and such shows are now being spit on by a lot of people. It's just contrarian idiots being contrarian. Sup Forums's Sup Forums is beyond saving and you faggots better accept that people like a show for what it is. You probably haven't even watched it and stopped at the "HURRR ISEKAI" synopsis.

>hurr Im insane all of a sudden
>derrp I stopped being insane
>lulsorandom mid-game boss with shittier VA appears
>daiiiiiii suki MC-kun
>wow mc died again so epic

AOTY!

>You must be 18 year of age of older to post on this website

And it isn't. Pretending to like this show is a new meme.

I suggest making an account on reddit and using /r/anime as your main discussion board. It seems much more appropriate for someone like you than Sup Forums.

For fucks sake he just watched everyone he cared about and loved die in a horrible manner because of his inability to fight, which he has none, only to suffer such tragedy again and again, until he finds a loop hole.

Seriously, pity the fool.

I unironically like isekai even the generic one but I can sit back and say yeah this isn't exactly fine literature.

They're people in ReZero thread calling this to be an AOTY contender when it's really not. I myself cannot enjoy characters like Subaru but whatever my opinion. However it STILL took 15 episodes for this to be actually good, which no one can really tell me why this episode was especially good other then MUH DESPAIR. Yeah totally worth sitting through 15 episodes of shit to get through

>watching 15 episodes of something you don't like
Sasuga

I'm not the one praising a shit-tier episode as some milestone in storytelling. Reddit is though

This suffering bullshit is as deep and meaningfull as fucking Akame ga kill at this point but somehow Re:zero gets a free pass. Why?

SeeIf you don't like it stop bumping its threads you fucking summerfriends

>Wow Sup Forums is saying this is pretty good
>It's not
Sasuga let's not have anime discussion on the anime board.

I haven't watched a single second of Re:Zero, but reading posts like these, I can see it's popular with retards, which generally isn't a good sign.

Do you honestly think that people who has been on Sup Forums long enough to call it AOTY considers this AOTY? The only time you'll see someone who considers it an AOTY is by the way he types. But you'd have to be a contrarian piece of shit not to notice all the effort the studio put in the last episode despite its shitty source material.

yeah i didn't, i'm i'm not really hating on it either though. just curious as to which side is right.

disappearance is well liked and with madoka it usually comes down to actual opinion. it probably is the same with this one. but the fact that you compare re:zero to those shows just makes me believe that you're probably more biased than not.
of course i haven't even watched it so i should just shut up.

As opposed to genius intellectual anime connoisseurs such as yourself?

I watched the 1st ep and I agree

>all this butthurt to a fucking cartoon
You can always stop watching, you know.

Man, you're a fucking dumbass. The "wow you're an expert" comment is way too fucking retarded.

>Sup Forums is one person
Damn that Anonymous guy just giving out free passes.

It's popular with retards because it's popular in general.
I recommend watching it after it's finished airing so you don't get caught up in this nonsense.

I've never said it yet but
Stop trying to fit in so fucking hard, you probably weren't on the board a year ago.
Just because it's Sup Forums doesn't mean you HAVE to shit on everything. People here even shit on Evangelion of all things nowadays. You gotta stop being a fucking jerk sometimes and just relax.

But I bet you only watch intelligent anime for intelligent people like you while polishing your fedora folded a 1000 times.

But it was genuinely good during a lot of parts. It never was AMAZING and had lots of boring parts but there's a lot of stuff that made it good like Subaru's development, the direction that changes very aptly depending on the situation, the effort the studio puts in making the show (they even skip the shitty OPs and EDs to cram as much content as possible inside the 2 cours), the sound direction and the various plot twists.

I'm not saying it's an AWESOME anime, I'm just saying it's nothing to scoff at and that people are just acting contrarian to avoid recognizing true effort. But hey, this comes from a board that laps up "comfy" moe shows without development so I get it takes out of your comfort zone.

from the sound of all this it just sounds like a well directed episode.
this does not make a great anime and it actually makes it justified for people to compare this to elfen lied. and by extension this makes you an entry level retard

>The explosion didn't cause the forest fire.

I'll just attribute that to some MAGICAL LEAVES AND BARK shit. Otherwise, as someone who kinda works with forests, I'd be very triggered.

Or, you can stop browsing reddit.
Fucking faggot.

Did I imply I was some sort of connoisseur? You sound like someone who's upset over people criticizing a show you love.

I have no intention of watching this show, because seeing people as stupid as yourself adore it makes me think it will be a complete waste of time.

I respect you opinion, but why are you posting about it if you never intend on watching? Go do something you like instead

It is a well directed episode and that's exactly what I said. I never said it was a great anime you fucking retard. Maybe you should learn to type first before calling me an entry level, fucking summer.

>respecting the opinion of a retard talking shit about a show he hasn't watched yet because of the fanbase

That's what I normally do, but when there are threads like this flooding the catalog, I'll give my 2 cents.

Who is "We"?

well what the fuck do you think aoty/s means? also just look at the OP. suddenly this show is "good" even though it was shit for 14 episoded.

A shit Sup Forums meme

>respecting the opinion of a retard talking shit about a show
Since when did I ever express my opinion or talk shit about the show? You're just exposing your insecurities over having your favorite show criticized.

Again, this just further proves that morons do indeed adore this show, which is why I'm ill inclined to give it a chance.

>Respecting people who get pissy over the amount of threads and don't even bother to watch the show before they give their "2 cents"

There's a point where one should not respect shit.

Did I even say or imply it was AOTY? Did I user? Are you incapable of reading sentences?

Anons, if I told him to fuck off like he should, he'd just further shit up the thread with this

Just because something has good production values doesn't make it good anime. It's not contrarian to say that Evangelion was pretentious.

All of that praise towards production values and consistency, why don't you just watch a Kyoani anime then?
>They skip the shitty OPs and EDs to cram as much content
That just shows that they literally can't pace this anime well enough, are you even an anime fan? OP/ED can be incredibly important to setting tone. Subaru's development is nonsense, it takes 15 episodes for him ...too get angry? Rem goes from killing the MC to wanting to die for him in all of two episodes (How convenient for him to forget that Rem spilled his guts out not even a few days ago.) Plot twists are Subaru dies because he's at the wrong place at the wrong time, gee wiz what brilliant story telling.

>one of the only good shows of the season
>Sup Forums shits all over it because they dont like the people that like it

OK.

I'm not comparing those shows to Re:Zero, my good man, you've misunderstood my post. I'm simply pointing out that there's been a huge contrarianism spike recently by using shows that had unanimous praise from Sup Forums back when they aired and comparing with the recent backlash by people shitting on said shows.

wiki.puella-magi.net/Threads

>if i say its a plot hole it is one
>im autistic and dont understand how people in the real world work

Alright man, you can go back to your "real anime" now

Ignoring my initial reply?

Looks like I'll keep posting in these threads then. Watching kids get angry over criticism is pretty funny; I don't even need to watch the show to wind you up.

>reading comprehension
>you
at point do you think this became about (you) specifically?

How is it good? Do go into further detail without referencing episode 15.

>but reading posts like these, I can see it's popular with retards
>I have no intention of watching this show, because seeing people as stupid as yourself adore it makes me think it will be a complete waste of time.
>The fanbase is shit, the show must be too! I'm better than these people hurr hurr
Or are you trying to imply something else? This isn't even my favorite show but you're the one putting airs here. Your 2 cents isn't worth shit when it isn't about anime. You're in Sup Forums not /blog/ if I recall.

it's just the fanbase
it's pretty cancerous at the moment
even manage to be more annoying than kabaneri's

but you are comparing them. you're saying that said "contrarianism" applies to this show as well.
but this show hasn't even finished airing. it's really not comparable to those other two.

I'm not going to bother writing something long for you to shitpost at so here's the main points:-Subaru has believable human bean flaws
-The world is interesting
-Good production values with god tier animation, directing, voice casting, OP/ED and OSTs
-Rarely seen good and somewhat subtle writing

That's about it

>For fucks sake he just watched everyone he cared about and loved die in a horrible manner because of his inability to fight
Doesn't that happen in every episode? I've read that so many times before, it's really hard to see the current episode as a milestone for the show.

>make a comment that people calling it AOTY aren't serious because the poster is bitching about people calling it AOTY
>Agree that episode 15 is pretty good
>hurr (You) an entry level retard is not good anime do you even know what AOTY means
I dunno user, are we even on the same page here?

>Your 2 cents isn't worth shit
It's called 2 cents for a reason, idiot.

>You're in Sup Forums not /blog/ if I recall.
Presenting a view is blogging is it? Only further proving your stupidity here, friend.

>The fanbase is shit, the show must be too!
Pretty much. When braindeads like yourself are utterly captivated by the story and characters, then something is probably wrong.

tfw i might dump my gf because she will never be rem.

That's it, anime ruined my life.

>its an everyone acts like a retard all the time anime

FUG someone just make a good decision already

literally tell anyone that roswaal is evil and there we go problem solved Emilia can get knights protecting her or some shit

>Subaru has believable human bean flaws
>bean
As if it wasn't already glaringly apparent this show appealed to idiots.

Also, you don't seem to understand the idea of going into further detail. It's easy to say a character has "believable human bean flaws", but if you're incapable of elaborating on those flaws, or explaining how they're well executed, you're just an idiot babbling about things you don't understand.

>-The world is interesting
Cool. How?

>-Good production values with god tier animation, directing, voice casting, OP/ED and OSTs
and this is based on?

>-Rarely seen good and somewhat subtle writing
Really? Like what?

Do you know what "good and somewhat subtle writing" is? Do you actually understand what you're talking about here?

>That's about it
It's about as worthless as I expected.

>Subaru has believable human bean flaws.
Can we just say he has flaws please?
>The world is interesting
It's a generic isekai setting, there's no world building at all.
>good production values
Ok
>rarely seen good and somewhat subtle writing
This is the point that everyone is being "contrarian" about.

If I can't find a girl like Rem, then I'd rather stay single forever.

AAAAAAAAAAA

Okay, your post is so full of bullshit it reeks of newfaggotry but I'll just point out every one of your mistakes just because I feel like doing it right now.
>Just because something has good production values doesn't make it good anime
I said "good direction" only. As a matter of fact, Re:Zero doesn't have that good production values as animation is just normal outside of sudden sakuga spikes from time to time and designs are average as fuck. Also, there are lots of things that bother me about it but I can actually use my head and adapt instead of just asking for spoonfeeding

>It's not contrarian to say that Evangelion was pretentious.
Who gives a shit? It's a good show with plenty of themes, lots of good action, sakuga works, brillantly depicted characters and so many more things. Just because it talked about human psychology and it flew over your head means you should dislike it and shitpost about it? No. Eva is an objectively good show.

>That just shows that they literally can't pace this anime well enough
This shows that they are actually taking the time to adapt as faithfully as possible a medium in which details and atmosphere are important. Using OP and ED like a fucking clockwork is detrimental to atmosphere because it reinforces the impression that you're viewing a fucking ad and it breaks the mood. The episode 7 and episode 15 endings wouldn't have been as good as they are if they hadn't put insert songs that actually match the mood, and they can actually use the songs brilliant over scenes that actually benefit from them like the Subaru and Emilia talking about date, Subaru going back to the mansion and discovering Rem's body and so on. THIS is actually setting the tone right, just like YuYuYu modified appropriately the EDs according the tone at the end of each episode and changed the OP and ED visuals to match the progression. Such things actually are proof of great direction skills and care from the studio that did the anime.

(cont.)

>I'm not going to bother writing something long for you to shitpost at so here's the main points

Here you go friend, since you missed it

Ram is better.

What a compelling smug anime girl image tier argument.

You can wriggle your way out of an explanation all you like, it's still abundantly clear that you're a complete idiot who was never capable of doing so.

>How is it good?
Small plot points that you wouldn't get the first time through if you are anime only. Keeps those that have read the LN interested in seeing what other ways the anime tells the story that was laid out pretty ordinarily in the source. After this arc is over you can go back and watch the mansion arc again to see some of the subtle hints that are given, or just read it yourself to figure this one out.

The author is heavily invested into ReZero overall as a piece. I can't really recall the last time I saw an author as vocal and likable as Nagatsuki. Maybe Nasu would be the closest thing to the amount of interaction Nagatsuki gives out. Check out his twitter if you like and if you can't read moon there are usually TLs of the more interesting stuff posted.

Ok, then, let's how you'll do.
Explain to me using at least 200 words why it's not a good anime

He can't man, he's just good at asking question.

200 words for explaining why he doesn't like the fanbase? A bit much isn't it?

No.

Only normies like Re:Zero and you can guarantee they've seen less then 10+ anime aside from the commercialized and mainstream anime.

>OP talks about direction, OST and development of the episode
>shock value

I really don't think is about the shock value.

If it was, people would be talking more about the girl getting killed than the ending scene.

>normies

Kill yourself cancer.

Dont wriggle your way out of an explanation
:^)

>it takes 15 episodes for him ...too get angry?
You've understood absolutely nothing, have you? Subaru underwent several phases in which his personality evolved and degraded with the hardships he endured. If you actually compared the guy from episode 1, episode 7, episode 10, episode 13 and episode 15, you'd see that his sanity is slipping away and revealing troubles like attachment problems, egocentrism and creepy possessiveness and a start of actual madness.

>Rem goes from killing the MC to wanting to die for him in all of two episodes
Dude risked his life to save kids of a village and proved to be worthy trust beyond his foul smell, but he also risked everything again to save her in the forest and faced a giant monster he had no hope of defeating alone just to save the twins. Add to that the ending dialogue they had and it's understandable why she would actually like him.

>Plot twists are Subaru dies because he's at the wrong place at the wrong time, gee wiz what brilliant story telling.
No, plot twist are the universe unveiling itself little by little and showing that every party has underlying problems or values that has the MC undergo difficult situations.

That's not how arguments work, m8. You're the one throwing unbacked shit.

Sup Forums is not a individual.

Holy shit user I didn't realize opinions needed objective facts to be considered 'backed'.
This changes everything, I guess I should just ignore my previous post like you did because It lacked citations, brb
