I think Sup Forums provides good insight into what series are worth watching and which ones can be skipped.

We just had this exact same thread

re:zero isn't so shit

Obligatory:
VN adaptations don't work and LN adaptation suck.
Forced melodrama romance shows (anohana, Ef: a tale of memories) are the worst.
Baccano does not need a sequel.
Old berserk tv show was amazing.
Code geass is an unoriginal trainwreck.
DTB season 2 was not that bad.
Durarara was long and boring.
Elfen lied, narutaru, higurashi, ima soko no iru boku were all edgy trash.
Rebuild of Evangelion sucks, and it's a waste of Annos talents.
Fate/zero is the only good work by nasu and butch.
Tsukihime anime was just as bad as the route it was based on.
Kara no kyoukai was pretentious trash.
Fate/stay night does not work as an anime, no matter how pretty it looks.
Madoka and psycho pass were both badly written.
New anime is not even trying to be good.
Sports anime sucks.
Miyazaki is overrated and quite boring.
Yugioh season 0 was great.
Re zero was bad.
Phantom: requiem was unwatchable.
Gate had the worst directing ever.
The first half of Sao also sucked.
Everyone had sex with everyone in Utena.
Dubs > subs, always.
K-on (and sol in general) is a waste of time.
The finale of katanagatari was both terrible and clever.
Parasyte anime was great.
UC > any other gundam series.
Manly anime is pretty great.
Steins gate is not that good.
I don't agree with the messages of NHK and the main girl is a negative character.
Oreimo was bad and really hard to watch.
Samurai champloo was not that great.
Haruhi is not that good, without nostalgia goggles.
NGE episodes 24&26 > end of Eva
Rei Ayanami is the best girl.
Jojo parts 1&2 are better than 3&4.
Jojo part 3 ova was better than the tv version.
Streaming is alright.

Text and image are contradicting

99.9% of anime is fucking boring.

GENERALS ARE BANNABLE OFFENCE
FUCK OFF

Re:Zero was actually a really well put together series that people only hated because it's okay to hate one good series a season and because of the "LNs are trash and otakubait" outlook in the anime scene.

Image is outdated. It has 80 something anime, while I'm over 100 in right now. Not include in the image are shows I dropped (phantom, gate, sao).

>Sports anime sucks

not as long as Wrestling is a sport

>Yugioh season 0 was great
Wait, when did that become a "Contrarian opinion" on Sup Forums?

Re zero was too edgy. It needed to be more subtle. Especially the deaths. Instead of being afraid of a painful and gory death, subaru should be afraid of the end of life. Having him mutilated by every madman he meets, makes the story cheap and seem like it's only relying on shock factor, to get the audience invested. Speaking of investment, subaru should have been a more interesting character.

This and baki, get a pass.

Ball > super > gt > z

What is "Edgy" nowadays? I don't really agree. Subaru, sure, gets mutilated, but not by "Every madman", nor does he ALWAYS gets mutilated by said madmen.

And not only that, but as time goes on, you realize Subaru also goes slowly insane more and more, and even during some points, downright to Petelgeuse's level of insane. And that's not even mentioning the depression that Subaru feels and is in.

You also have to remember, Subaru is meant to be an uninteresting character, he has, literally, started from Zero and that's where the building of his character begins.

Did your other thread get deleted OP?

...

Onani Master Kurosawa is in fact the greatest manga of all time

Code Geass is dog shit

This.

Tokyo Ghoul was a great show. Root A doesn't exist

>likes eva
>dislikes madoka
How can you exist

I also said that re zero could have used a lot more subtlety. Everything is loud and in your face. The gory deaths, the freakouts etc.

They should have shown subaru becoming more careful and paranoid, while being cold and distant towards everyone he knows. Because that's what loosing your "friends" over and over again, does to you. Their deaths should be meaningless after a dozen time, and emotionaly connecting with them should be impossible. Then the character development could lean towards him
Regaining his will to fight for others.

All I'm saying is that they had a lot of potential, but delivered an over the top, loud and annoying mess.

EVA succeeds as a deconstruction, Madoka doesn't. Not that user but I agree with him on that point.

Sup Forums does not have shit taste.

We're gonna.

RahXephon was better than Evangelion.

Sup Forums is not one person.

Never heard of it, convince me to give it a watch

>people with taste this bad exist

I thought that the ending to oyasumi punpun was complete shit

ITT; Hi, I'm special

No Game No Life is not reddit: The anime, JoJo is.

>super better than anything
Come on man, I know this is a contrarian thread but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater
Super is the worst of DB and the worst of Z, which basically makes it a polished turd edition of GT

It's got all the good parts of NGE (big robo fights, interesting mystical background, cute girls) with none of the Anno mindfuck bullshit.

Oh, I see
You don't know what made NGE good in the first place.
Opinion descarted

Beck Mongolian Chop Squad is the best sports anime ever.

Working!>Working!!'>WWW.Working!>Working!!

If someone told me Keijo!!!!!!!! was a deconstruction of battle school anime I'd believe it.

TTGL is literally 10/10 pacing and thematic coherency.

Why did you make another thread?

TTGL has terrible pacing.

You forgot about Boxing, too

ecchi actually draws out imagination, not hinders it.

WOW-WOW-WOW

Knights of sidonia was great

Nigga none of this is contrarian on Sup Forums

>Dubs > subs, always.
Alright you made up for it, kill yourself

Gunslinger Girl was a masterpiece

Misaki did nothing wrong

I'll give you one off the top of my head:
Ookiku Furikabute is the best sports anime ever made.

It doesn't matter if you're comparing it with Major, Captain Tsubasa or Ippo it outshines all of them with the fresh, believable and enjoyable characters, varied story lines and is good at giving legitimate information about the (high school side of the) sport rather than sport memes like many other anime.

I suppose it's not as contrarian an opinion as it can be. A lot of people share it. Still, the typical sports anime is Sup Forumstard so they gravitate towards manime garbage so enough people would disagree here. So it's valid enough as a contrarian opinion.

Adaptation is an adaptation. It's not a standalone work and is forever tied to it's source (unless it really improved some shit).

OP is a faggot

Dragon ball GT wasn't bad.

Anime was not a mistake.

Anime is for kids

I watched Rahxephon as it aired and to this day I share this opinion.
Evangelion besides the visual style has way too many quirks to be considered as widely accepted as a top 10 anime.

We already have entire board for this it's called Sup Forums.

I love Keit-Ai and I think it should be unbanned.

>deconstruction
Explain or fuck off.

> Basically saying torture porn
> Re:Zero
Let's see the loser's death count:
> Gutted by Elsa (Eh)
> Gutted by Elsa again (a little more effort but still sub-standard)
> Knifed by bandit (...)
> Sleep-death (Fuck you, where's the blood? Not even throwing up until death)
> Death in the hall (Now that's more fucking like it!)
> Throat cut (eh, yeah)
> Cliff (Talk about a cliffhanger, not even fucking shown the mess, what the fuck?)
> Death by Puck (Not even brutal, come on.)
> Death by Puck (Like a popsicle, not impressed)
> Death by Puck (LET IT GO, LET IT GO, I WANTED BLOOD, STILL NOT FUCKING IMPRESSED)
> Killed by Ferris and Julius (Not even fucking shown that much)
Subaru died about eleven times so far. I'm not even impressed by the torture porn, what the fuck? If I wanted torture porn, I would have gone for Tokyo Ghoul episode 11-12. Fuck this. And fuck you.

>puck pulled off a hat trick
Pretty impressive.

Oh cut the crap. You're speaking as if Sup Forums as a whole.

Naruto is hated because of its popularity and less for its actual story.

>Tokyo Ghoul
>episode 11-12
>episode
What are talking about?

>Sup Forums is contrarian
What else is new?

No, Naruto is hated because it ran why to fucking long and focused on naruto all the way, even when you had plenty of side characters that were good, if not better then naruto.

>Naruto is hated because of its popularity and less for its actual story.

That's not wrong, but you're missing the point.
It doesn't matter how shit it is. There's no such thing as a shit spectrum. A shit is a shit.

If we allowed Naruturds to speak about garbage without reprisal, they'll have 4 threads about it every day.

So it's hated because it's bad, and yet there's a large group of retards ready to shit up the board with it anyway. Do you get it now?

>If we allowed Naruturds to speak about garbage without reprisal, they'll have 4 threads about it every day.
>Do you get it now?
No when we have a spam of DB threads.

>deconstruction
I wish this word would forever disappear from anime fans' vocabulary.

Oh I'd gladly tell them to fuck off as well. The problem is I've been here for 11 years and I don't give a fuck anymore and neo/a/ is from reddit so they don't know any better.

And besides, it's a banable offense now. You can thank moot for trying to redditify Sup Forums 5-6 years ago.

I just wish they stopped using it for EVA and SHAFT anime. Neither are actual deconstructions.

This so much. It's fucking retarded.

Every time a show strays from a normal setting/genres roots it's labeled as a fucking "deconstruction" and i don't really understand fucking why! It's the whole "The color of the roses are a metaphor for the writers depression" when they were just their because the author just wanted those colored roses in that scene.

But you can thank modern anime reviewers for that word never leaving the anime scene.

Yeah, it's hated cuz narutards are intolerable gaiafags or whatever is the gaia replacement these days

Sup Forums is never right about anime

Shit anime that people pretend to like only because they are expected to: Gunbuster, Serial Experiments Lain, Cowboy Bebop, The End of Evangelion

As far as the original Toriyama-made portion is concerned.
DBZ > DB
Nobody would've cared about Dragon Ball in general if it kept being a Journey to the West pastiche and not about space aliens.

You are part of Sup Forums therefor your comment regarding anime is wrong.

>implications a Western sheep is allowed to have a personalized taste

YOU WILL COMPLY TO THE HIVEMIND

I have another one: Kyoani shows recently have been really mediocre. Hibike being a prime example.

No Game No Life was great

I actually enjoy the comfiness that is Mushi-shi

>Jojo parts 1&2 are better than 3&4.
>Jojo part 3 ova was better than the tv version.

Animeonly spotting 101

Digibrony is a retard who shouldn't be on Sup Forums, and same goes for snob.

yubel was a better villain than darkness.

There's about 8 Code Geass threads right now

Diebuster is much better than Gunbuster

The memetrain will die on it's own.
Give it some time.

It's different from manchild autist circlejerking.

anime-onlyfags ruin any discussion of a serie that already have or eventually gets a adaptation

Streaming isnt that bad

Moe and waifus as concept are overrated as fuck and shouldnt be the eternal meme they are

LN fags have a shit taste and a touchy autistic personality, they are incapable of taking any criticism for shit they read.

Very rarely does an anime not make an LN justice.
If a wider audience judges your favourite isekai garbage harshly it's not on them. You have shit taste.

If you cant handle that go on a reddit echo chamber safespace, kid.

How can Sup Forums be different from itself?

Fucking this. I remember LNfags having threads about SAO and shitting up Accel World threads about how much better it was.

I will never trust an LNfags taste ever again. Its always the same fucking story.

This isn't a contrarian opinion. Digibrony gets a lot of hate on Sup Forums.

He's honestly right a lot of the time, but is just really douchy and arrogant.

I think you're not making a distinction between an Sup Forumsustist and a legitimate mental deficient (most naruto fans).

There is nothing wrong with streaming as long as you have at least 6mbps down.

I like him to be honest.

I actually was saying that more for Manga; LNs, at least compared to any other media that nips use, has suffered for really low quality and clearly most of them are just copycats from each other, some are even just fanfic tier of a more popular serie.

Manga, while having its own problem, tend to have more variety and creativity, when talking about manga threads, while the typical waifufagging and shitposter are present, they arent that bad, memes arent as rampant and overused by everyone, you can get some talk about it even after some time from the last chapter; but once the anime comes, all threads go to shit, and even persist after the anime ended.

What do we think of his taste?

>He's honestly right a lot of the time
No, no he's not.

You're right. The former have a huge ego up their ass, and you're a prime example of that.

So he's Sup Forums?

A taste as generic as vanilla ice cream.
