Who are you quoting?

>post arguments against it

>getting Sup Forums to validate your own insecurities about personal taste

You forgot to mention that the argument usually just involves calling it shit

>some faggot has the autistic need to prove their taste is the very bestest and shits on it

>all the people ITT whose preferred animu got called out as being shit

Man I have lost friendships over this argument.

>"user check out [anime] its a great 10 outta 10 series, so good!"
>points that it wasn't and post arguments against it
>"n-no, it's a fun series, stop taking it so seriously! I really only thought it was a 6 outta 10."
>then why did you recommend it to me!

>"I really only thought it was a 6 outta 10."
Never seen a casual do this. They'll fight you if you say SAO or some other series are a 5/10 because they can't differentiate quality and enjoyment. Same with a lot of anons but also mixed in with some tightly worn nostalgia goggles.

This is why the average weeb has no friends.

The worst part is i would go look up what he rated it on MAL and it would be a 6! Everything he rates is a 6 or 7! He knows his tastes are shit and yet still recommends them like they are great.

We know longer talk.

I hope your on here you little shit you know who you are.

>post arguments against it
Sure you did, user. Sure you did.

There are people that due that but at least he's giving it a fair rating. I rather that than a 10 on a shitty series they enjoyed or a 4 for a series they didn't enjoy.

Yes but he would recommend it like it was hot shit 10 outta 10, i would watch it, come back and say how mediocre it was and he would be all like

>"n-no, it's a fun series, stop taking it so seriously! I really only thought it was a 6 outta 10."

Maybe they are rating on a 1-5 scale and they don't know it yet.
I have two friends that have little knowledge of anime who basically take any series I recommend and watch it on in a decent amount of time. Most people ignore me then come years later asking if I've ever heard of it or just never watch it. One watched a few gateway anime and the other one series before. It's a fun experience so far. It also puts some of the untouched in a long time or in forever series on my hard drive to use. If most casuals were like this Sup Forums wouldn't hate them so much.

He knows, he had some rated 10, he knows how it works. Doesn't matter now anyways. He has been giving me the silent treatment for 6+ month now, I know women that where less moody than him.

> If most casuals were like this Sup Forums wouldn't hate them so much.

Sup Forums hates everything anyways, but they are not always wrong, i have stopped telling people i like anime years ago.

Real talk, how many "moody" women do you know? I don't know many same with men.

I've known one since middle school and the other one for coming onto 2 years. I will probably move and never bring up anime with other anime fans though since I wouldn't have known them as long. I trust them with my pretty new 4tb hard drive.

> Real talk, how many "moody" women do you know?

Not many because i am to old to deal with that, but i was also exaggerating to a degree. But he would get butt hurt about something then ghost for like a week or two, then come back. Get upset about something, ghost for a few weeks, then come back. I enjoyed the discussion with him, but man if there was a big disagreement he would just stop talking for weeks.

> I will probably move and never bring up anime with other anime fans

I'm 30 now, as you get older talking to people about how great some anime it starts coming off as depressing.

He sounds bad. I can see why you call him moody. Most of my casual friends just say I have bad or elite taste for not liking mediocre anime.
The two I help on the other hand take my series and recs when they can. They don't stream on damn Kissanime for sure like my casual friends.
I turned 20 a couple months ago. I can see why you'd feel that way. I know you shouldn't be ashamed of your hobbies and interests but people judge, even me.
Nice to talk to an older user who will be asked if they have entered wizardom most likely. Good night.

Must be nice being young

>ha ha yes so funny
>ha ha smug asuka because i have good taste ha ha

> Nice to talk to an older user who will be asked if they have entered wizardom most likely. Good night.

Ha, I'm married luckily. But you pretty much proved my point there.

It all goes down hill from here right pops?

>"[anime] is a great series, so good!"
>points that it wasn't and post arguments against it
>"who cares, I enjoyed it you fucking weeaboo, no need to be such an elitist"
>"o-ok, sorry sir"
how this conversation actually went

It is. I'll try to enjoy it.

I had to know before I went to sleep.

>sorry sir
I just say "Okay" and move on.

I too am a lover of rational and intelligent debate. My favorite subject: Japanese animation.

>"[anime] is objectively shit! Only [generic ad hominem] like [anime]!"
>Ok then, how about you elaborate on your view with specific examples while refraining from using meme buzzwords
>"w-well, objectively forced drama and no character development and h-haha, check out this smug anime girl"
