Why can't people appreciate thoughtful, smart shows? In a sea of constant anime mediocrity, Flip Flappers dared give us something original, spectacular and different. Why do so many try to take the show down? Why can't we have nice things?

This is why.

because you niggers shat it all over the board like it was the second coming of christ when in reality it was okay but went to absolute trash at the end. 5/10

This post seems oddly familiar

It's all about sales now buddy. This is the modern anime fan.

I loved it.

I'm at episode 12 and I don't want to see the last one because I don't want it to end

Well its not really without any flaw but its still well above your average seasonal waifu kit.

An anime that can't inspire fans to make good porn for it nor make the staff themselves want to keep drawing it out of their own pocket is not a show worth remembering.

>An anime that can't inspire fans to make good porn for it

Neat bait

Why did this show have to be so terrible? I thought it was gonna be a breath of fresh air, something creative and interesting and nice to look at, but man it was a downward spiral from the get go.

Flip Flappers is pretty much the textbook definition of mediocre. It had potential, but shat the bed at the end. At least Kemono Friends repudiated sakuga fags well enough.

If someanithing was a true yurifan, he'd buy 150 copies of Kemono Friends, instead of wasting his money on Flip Flappers.

This desu. Instead he had to buy a dozen copies of shit like Flip Flappers and Sakura Trick, while saying that an actually good show was not actually anime.

Hey guys, there is still room on the meme wagon! C'mon, jump in and join the fun!
Say it with me: "FLIP FLOPPED WAS PRETENTIOUS TRASH!"
Now do the meme dance!

>original
Name one original idea in it.

Imagine watching Flip Flappers unironically. How shameful that must be.

It was boring.

Kemono Friends is yuri?

Is that even a question?

Flip Flappers is one of my favorite anime

>if it's slightly weird by conventional standards, then it's smart and has never been done before ever
It fell apart towards the end and nothing is original. People who say something's good for being original are essentially admitting that they don't know its influences or homages.

It was good until Yuniko was fired.

why was she even fired?

She was caught having sex on company property.

Source?

My dad works at 3Hz.

>883

That aside, it was pretty good. The problem is it had a lot of spotty moments between great moments, and ended on a kinda mediocre note in terms of plot and animation quality.

Episode 3 was the best by far in terms of animation, and none of the other episodes topped it.

Pretty much. It was okay at best but man the fanbase can't stop praising it as if this was the Citizen Kane of anime.

She wanted to keep plausible deniability in the yuri so that it could still be "more than friends but not quite lovers." The director wanted armored wedding dresses and a confession scene in the finale. She had to go.

He hates CG for some odd reason, which is hard to understand given that he loves IM@S (which is also full of CG). He also seems to (conveniently?) ignore that almost all anime have some kind of CG in it somewhere. I think even Flip Flappers had some CG.

The funny thing is that he loves Sakura Trick a lot because of the yuri but apparently most yurifags actually hate the show.

>Flip Flappers
>thoughtful
>smart

PFFFHAHAHAHAHAHA

Seriously: why do people praise this show so much, and why do its fans spite on anyone who says even a single bad word about it? It wasn't horrible by any means and it's not even a bad show, but it's no masterpiece and at the very least it was a show that had a lot of potential but squandered that potential. And the thing is: not all of the criticism is shitposting. A lot of it are actually legitimate or constructive criticisms. And yet, the fans gang up on anyone who doesn't like the show.

only wittols concern themselves with the monetary expenditures of otaku scum

I imagine that the hardcore fans are the easily impressed sort who haven't watched much anime. The "Deep symbolism" among other things didn't help.

>expect a fully original series
>get mahou shoujo
>it ends with an Eva ending

trash it goes

So basically, Flip Flappersfags are today's Lainfags or NHKfags?

It's pretty close. The show being something recent has tinted the perception a bit as well.

Seems to make sense. I have observed that a lot of FFfags seem to be newcomers to anime, given how it seems many can't seem to name many other anime online (someanithing is of course an exception).

>Lainfags
no that's Tatami Galaxy
>NHKfags
no that's Watamote

Nah, lainfags and nhkfags weren't nearly as dense as flipfloppers fans

>edge triggered

>dense
How are they dense?

see >and why do its fans spite on anyone who says even a single bad word about it?

I'm talking about those faggots

Honestly, that's what I don't understand. People give their opinions, and in many cases these opinions or criticisms are quite accurate. Why do FFfags then gang up then?

And for that matter, why do the fans praise the show to the heavens anyway? A true fan would still mention and describe faults in a show they liked, but many FFfags act as if the show is 100% perfect with no flaws.

The OST was god-tier, this cannot be denied.

It wasn't that good, user.

Serendipity and Flip Flap Flip Flap were pretty good, though.

I really enjoyed it for what it was. It's not perfect, but it's still one of my favorite anime.

This is more like it. This is a more appropriate opinion of FF than something like "FF is perfect: it's a smart deep anime, and it's original and should be praised".

preety good isn't the same as god tier

No one appart from some shitposters are saying its perferct or complete garbage, just a really well made show that could have been even more if it had more time to tell its story.I dont know why people act like its fanbase are all autistic retards who dont accept any criticism whatsoever, its just that most criticism is nothing but buzzwords and meme shit

Sometimes, people post in the threads that the show could have been better, then those anons get shat at.

Yet all criticism is dismissed if Flip Flappers is referred to anything less than ideal. It is almost as if the show is incredibly overrated on Sup Forums.

Most of the people who hated on it were too stupid to understand it.

What else could you even think of that would be more fitting for the show?

Just a few.

I don't know, but I never said it was bad, just that it's not "god-tier"

What about this show attracts so many shitposters? It's been almost a year since it aired and the shitposting is still going strong. Usually, people stop caring after a few months

They do for the same reason people flock togheter to tear down shit since the dawn of time. an excuse to vent frustration and insecurities.
I declare myself guilty, as well. Everyone did that at least once here.
The funny part is that both defending and attacking exaggerately is equally retarded behavior that feeds on its opposite. So these guys are figuratively having mental disability angry sex with eachother.

The ending of the series shit the bed and suffocated all the potential it had in the beginning.

If you don't get FLFL you're a dull teenage cishettel.

Lesbianism is degeneracy

>Anyone who criticizes this show is a shitposter!

I'd really like to see some examples because I don't remember anyone saying seriously it was a masterpiece.
Even a blind hydrocephalus in a coma could tell that the last episodes were shit.

It's kind of sad, as all the first part of the show needed was a good follow up. Maybe if they had more episodes it would have panned out better.

I'm not talking about that

OP.

Not when Cocona is involved, your sexual preferences won't matter once you take a good look at her

>Anyone that defend it is a babby yurifag!

I would throw newfags and sakugafags in there as well.

That sounds anything but some legit opinion man. Don't play dumb

Yeah but that would make my implicatio too articulated. Let's keep it synthetic

She's just an average anime schoolgirl dude.
And that's the tragedy

Oh yes, the dreaded false flaggers of Sup Forums. Way to dismiss the point.

What's so thoughtful and smart about this show?

It has pretty pictures, and lesbians! Don't forget some pop psychology references.

>Falseflag threads don't exist
Yeah ok

Better than Kemono Friends already

The tragedy is that she is stuck in such a mediocre show.

The show's about Cocona, so she's the core of its mediocrity
Giving her some real development would have saved everything

I feel like what qualifies as a mediocre is vastly different from one person to another in these threads

If only those without schizophrenia could find them.

That's what discussion should be about, measuring and confronting the differencies in subjective evalutation patterns.
Instead we got meme time. whelp.

No she's the most beautiful middle school girl ever and I love her so much!

It's almost as if this show is legitimately underwhelming and all the criticism against it isn't just a conspiracy. What a shocker.

>development is good
t. plebbit

its almost like there hasn't been any actual cristicism in this thread appart from people spouting memes and saying the ending is shit without actually explaining why

If anything I can't criticize on the visuals.
I wish they had released a book with the materials

>still haven't seen this show
>it gets referenced so much in shows that I do follow
Some day.

Feel free to dismiss everything that doesn't disagree with you and ignore a good amount of posts. It won't change the facts.

show me a post with actual criticism in this thread im legitimately curious what you think "criticism" is.Im not saying the show is perfect and could probably tell you some of its fault myself but most people are only shitposting right now and thats a fact

There is nothing to back your criticism except than vague catchphrases sprinkled among the greentext and accusations of autistic fanbase- completely absent in this thread despite the op.
So well, are you enjoying yourself?

Don't bother. It's just some pretty looking pseudo intellectual yuri trash.

>but most people are only shitposting right now and thats a fact
What an excellent way to dismiss anything that I could ever point out. Legitimate criticisms have been posted for months, yet nothing I show you would ever make you happy. I could point out how people in this very thread have mentioned the drop in production values, the lack of character development, or even the stupid drama, but those are all just "memes" to you. It's ironic as you and most of the Madoka-tier fans are the ones who never say anything back beyond dismissing anyone who dares to criticize the show as shitposters, even though the window for shitposting has long since passed.

I'm just happy that all the sakuga fags who were jerking off to the show even before it aired were entirely done up when Kemono Friends turned out to be leagues better and generally more well received. Maybe people will realize that visuals aren't all there is.

>pretty
>yuri
I'm a simple man.

>muh flip flappers is a thoughtful and smart show
Flip Flappers is a mediocre Madoka rip off and the amount of over hyping and general spamming there was on this board from the small fan base became obnoxious quickly.

madokanorms are not human beings

so why did you not do it? And as i said I dont think the show is anything close to perfect, just that no one is actualy discusing those flaws appart from throwing out buzzwords. As a side note you are absolutely right about the animation quality dropping but i personnaly thought most of the character developement was handled pretty well considering the amount of time they where allocated.
