How is this crap so popular? This is the edgiest piece of shit I've seen in ages. It's like it was written by 13 year old, and the direction only makes it's flaws stand out more.
It falls headon into every awful action anime clichee, the sword licking, the 'I can defeat 150 enemies by myself and bleed 10 litres of blood and be completely fine because I have protagonist power', every enemy being an edgelord for no reason; it switches from super serious and emotional to humour in a split second, only to proceed to fail at said humour. If it at least realized how completely ridiculous its premise is and accepted it, it would be watchable, but the worst thing is how it seems to take itself seriously, and the direction playing it completely straight and adding shitty washed out filters and dubstep to top doesn't help.
Honestly pretty boring, 4 episodes in and the plot has barely moved. Shuumatsu no Izetta and Keijo are better action anime this season.
Michael Ramirez
Made by a popular mangaka.
Hunter King
Hellsing Ultimate is better.
Aaron Evans
Hellsing but with more action, less thriller and worse humor.
Eli Cook
>edgiest piece of shit Its pretty standard shounen hero summoned to another world to defeat the demon lord and his champions, what is edgy about that?
Jason Taylor
>watching/reading Hirano for the writing wew
Alexander Sullivan
It's shit like Hellsing for the same reasons as Hellsing and made by the same person as Hellsing.
Levi Wilson
Isn't a mindlessly edgy show fine once in a while. If you're gonna go for edge you can't get any edgier than the dude who wrote Hellsing.
Asher Powell
Yep, confirms it. I came to this thread because i thought hellsing got a samurai reboot
Benjamin Nelson
Who is Red? Googling is not helping me.
Asher Bennett
And by that I mean what looked like a Vietnam marine that had Red written on his helmet, not Toyohisa.
Jaxon Ortiz
>edgiest piece of shit so are the other animes and western super hero movies, but still watchable.
Ethan Harris
Sup Forums doesn't deserve Hirano.
Isaac Turner
You just described why I like it.
I mean, I understand the edge. I just happen to enjoy its execution.
Jaxon Edwards
This. It's trashy, I won't deny that. But trashy things can be entertaining when done well.
Cameron Morgan
Just some unimportant burger that Murasaki rejected for clapping in his hall.
Samuel Miller
>drifters >edgy
You sure we're watching the same show?
Bentley Green
Stop hating on my manime. >
Aaron Turner
yeah I wouldn't use the word edgy. No, Id just call it gay.
Cameron Brown
nothin gay about it user
Logan Cooper
Whats wrong? Not enough moeblob lesbians?
Jason Moore
i thought summer was over
Ian Watson
>Drifters explains why Alucard has been gone for so long. Alucard appearing in Drifters when?
Wyatt Cook
It would literally be gay NOT to want to fuck this boy.
Sebastian Cook
>Whoah this show has blood and gore >I'm too intellectual and mature for this shit >Why is it so popular? Why doesn't everyone like what I like?
Connor Morgan
Preach!
Kayden Hughes
>edgy as fuck >I can defeat 150 enemies by myself and bleed 10 litres of blood and be completely fine because I have protagonist power'
Sure reminds me of something
Carson Ross
Don't talk like edgy is a bad thing you fags.
Ryan Rodriguez
more like that horseshit akame ga kill
Camden Moore
>but the worst thing is how it seems to take itself seriously It really doesn't.
Jason Reyes
>animes Broke my newfag detector.
James Ward
This. I like Berserk as much as the next guy and it IS pretty good but it's not the masterpiece faggots make it out to be.
Jack Taylor
>but the worst thing is how it seems to take itself seriously, How do you argue against this, It doesn't even make sense.
If Samurai's and Wild West Cownboys and Joan of Arc moving to a world with Elves and other stuff isn't entertaining then god knows what you enjoy.
Connor Lee
It's Jesus, isn't it?
Henry James
Can this be a banner?
Robert Harris
it's fate for normies
Henry Green
No shit, Sherlock
Wyatt Ross
...
Jaxon Rogers
No it's Black Jesus.
Lucas Young
Because it's an unabashed, unapologetic action flick. Think of the appeal like Hellsing and JoJo.
Henry Martinez
Jesus was either Jew or Aramaic. A sandnigger, basically.
Dominic Ross
So from the MC's and Nobunaga's stories I assumed Drifters get taken at the time of their (violent) deaths. But then I looked up the trap archer and he's said to have lived till his 60's. How does it work? Is it just historical license?
Oliver Taylor
Well Jesus didn't die...
Levi Collins
I'm feeling 100% homolust for Yoichi, if anyone could share their folders I'd be eternally grateful.
Mason Baker
It's just Hirano being Hirano. He always takes a liberties when portraying real world characters and organizations. Whatever keep the plot moving, the blood flowing, the tits bouncing, and the grins shit eating.
Isaiah Murphy
is that way dude, you can go back to streaming stranger things on netflix now.
Jace Miller
>but the worst thing is how it seems to take itself seriously >it switches from super serious and emotional to humour in a split second Glad to see you're just retarded.
Brandon Stewart
>Drifters >Popular
What? The manga is not very well known and this adaptation took lot of time to get the greelit.
Preorder are not doing well either.
Also, it has one weekly thread with a relatively reduced number of posters
Where exactly did you the idea that this is "popular"? Because, no matter what standards you use, this show isn't popular at all, neither the manga is.
Michael Lewis
It's time to go back to school, it's way out in fall now.
Asher Young
You got to love the shit eating grins.

>edgy
Stop using that buzzword, you mentally disabled weaboo.
Seriously, if we were to compare the IQ between the boards, Sup Forums must feature the lowest average IQ.
People are so retarded, that they don't realize it.
James Rivera
>Preorder are not doing well either. Kek the stalker point outnumbered everything this season have to offer.
Blake Sanchez
Soooo is this show just an edgy Fate/Stay Night?
James Wright
>Drifter >Take itself seriously No its fuckin not you trash hoarding neckbeard.
Christian White
A better fate/stay night.
Ryan Long
>edgy what the fuck? is this your first show? Not even Hellsing was edgy
Mason Ward
Didn't he? I'm not up to date on my Christian theology, but didn't he actually die on the cross, or what would be the point of his sacrifice and resurrection? He just came back and then ascended to heaven instead of dying again.
>yfw Drifters is just what Jesus did in between dying and coming back three days later
Jack Perry
>it switches from super serious and emotional to humour in a split second >but the worst thing is how it seems to take itself seriously
Grayson Johnson
Are you retarded and really believe that there's a guy who can come back to life?
Zachary Baker

99% sure 1% Hirano is doing a very good redhering
Samuel Nguyen
Your first mistake is thinking Hirano cares
Justin Brown
If it's not Jesus, who would it be?
Ayden Butler
>Jesus died It's just Jews conspiracy. They (mainstream Rome Catholics) massacred an entire branch of Christianity which told otherwise (Ocitania Quatars and Balkan Bogomils). Quatars preached that Jesus was just a benevolent being from higher dimension taking a walk here, enlightening ignorant humans to their true nature along the way. The whole death-and-resurrection was therefore a staged spectacle for the weak of mind who couldn't quite understand and accept ideas he preaches up front.
Michael Anderson
Fucking heretics man.
Aiden James
Yeah. They even asked an appointed punitive (crusade) force leader before sacking Quatar city: how will we distinguish loathsome heretics from faithful catolics? The answer was to murder everyone, God will sort things out.
Christian Sanders
>The manga is not very well known >Preorder are not doing well either. Cool lie bro
Grayson Parker

Ayden Bailey
Mohammed.
Jacob Scott
Eh, some apostle maybe. It's not like Jesus was the only one who got crucified. We know at least Judas was too.
Gabriel Edwards
Peter Basically discount Jesus in terms of miracles
Sebastian Bell
>We know at least Judas was too. What? Judas hanged himself
Parker Thompson
You're doing it wrong, user. You should only watch this for pic related.

I'm tempted for many years now. Thing is I'm a believer and don't think this is a permanent solution. I'm in a process of sinning my record up with masturbation so they'll just throw me in the oblivion instead of wasting time on purgatory.
Brandon Bailey
Here's another (You)
John Morgan
I don't mind it. It's ridiculous enough to ignore the silly overpowered elements but I think it's moving way too slow at the moment.
Tyler Harris
Quatars needed ideology to recruit gullible idiots for their work camps. Shit worked out pretty well until they got stomped.
Zachary Foster
I like it, also thighs
Owen Gomez

Kayden Turner
In the grand scale of mythologies it's not the most ludicrous thing to happen, especially since they didn't do anything particularly final like chop off his head or cut out his heart.
Hudson Cooper
because its fun
Hudson Brown
Who's ready for anime original ending?
Hunter Diaz
>needed ideology to recruit gullible idiots for their work camps Every religion\ideology ever.
I'm not that familiar with beliefs outside of Europe, but show me an european ideology that did this and wasn't a heresy senpai.
>inb4 tithe meme Comparing it to modern rental fees that's fucking gracious
Joseph Baker
Cathars were doing his stuff pretty close to where i live.You could still have problems if you mention or talk about them in front of a catholic priest from here, not even joking.
Austin Kelly
This thread is now a Yoichi appreciation thread.
I want to ______ Yoichi!
Easton Roberts
It's either work camps, church tax or tax exemption for business. They all get some privileges based on their auditory. Tell me how it's different. Of course some "new" sects would very much prefer work camps to build up resource base. Catholics have enough of that at the time and switched to taxation and various "donations". Touzenda. Cathars said Catholicism is false, diabolical religion.
Adam Carter
Drifters is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a *********** of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping faggotry and DARKNESS. The normal user can see this as the **** it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the **** of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the katanas, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole samurai faggotry and everything about the Isekai world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of **** that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this **** right the **** up.
Drifters is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to Sup Forums, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every user to troll the **** out of this show and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no Naruto threads ever encourage the newfags to show their faces here.
With this copypasta I basically implied that your post resembles it in a group thinking sheep mentality devoid of any importance and purpose
Benjamin Howard
No, all you proved is that you can't think for yourself.
Andrew Clark
>user >responsibility How about you fuck off and we enjoy any show we like?
Robert Jones

Nolan Reyes
actually, Hirano already did a short gag manga where Easy asked Alucard to join her as Vlad Tepes and got told to fuck off.
Logan Davis
Business that required heresy worked on much harder conditions, it's kinda obvious since the whole point was separating believers form the society in order to use them. Also, check your facts senpai. CC didn't switch to donation, they were basically robbed through various reforms, often recieving compensations that didn't cover for the loss of land. Throught centuries various laws were forced in order to stop the growth of Church's lands and take away those they already owned, like all the shit that happened after casation of Jesuits, or more recently, what happened to Church's land in Eastern Block years after WW2. Come on man, you don't require university's libraries to find this shit. Just don't fall for memes
