Gavin Ward
i was in a relationship with someone because she liked toradora
Carson Young
Anime has only become good after K-ON! Everything that came before it is trash
Kayden Nguyen
Do you have a fetish for girls with shit taste?
Xavier Jackson
not necessarily there some classics like Clannad, Toradora and Haruhi for example
Jaxon Garcia
Plenty of cool younger women like older anime.
Modern stuff is contrived and has tons of obvious CGI everywhere.
John Perez
if you think that's shit tastes you don't wanna hear what was my favorite show last season
it was the vatican detectives one
Jack Diaz
>Escaflowne You really wanted to put Evangelion in there didn't you bait-kun?
Kayden Hernandez
Sure. Lucky Star and Highschool DxD are pretty good too. Most that came before K-ON! are trash.

And none of them drive or vote, but they'll tell you all about the useless thing they bought on sunday. A crone's a state of mind, not something that can be read from a business card. Well, unless the card specifically mentions fortune telling or herbal medicine.
Asher Nguyen
It was 8 years ago my man. Someone who was 10 in 2009 could be shitposting here this very moment and not be underage b&.
At first I thought this was bait but upon reflection, it is pretty accurate with only minor points being worth arguing about. People with shit taste in anime can usually be shown the error of their ways. Thanks for the reminder of how hard HSotD sucked.

If your favorite restaurant hosts a birthday party for some bratty 10yo, are you too old for it? No, you are a victim of bad timing. If the food starts to suck are you to old for it? No, the quality has simply declined. If you still subject yourself to either you might be a masochist or a pedophile, but not too old.

Gabriel Morris
I can make you out yourself in any thread by making a food analogy, or even make you leave. I could find out everything you like about Sup Forums and ruin it for you just by showing up. I expect someone already is, though, since you seem so well trained.
Gabriel Green
This. Anyone, male or female, who praises Ghibli for anything other than animation quality is a normalfag who has seen less than 100 anime. Its always literally the same movie over and over but with different skins attached and they're quaint watches but hardly anything ground breaking let alone master pieces. If anyone says 'I love Ghibli movies, I've seen all of them' you avoid them like the plague.
Wyatt Nelson
I liked that doujinshi where she fucked the bugs.
Logan Perez
But what do you do if you meet a girl who has a higher power level than you and she knows a lot more about the medium as a whole so you feel intimidated every time she talks about the subject and calls you a newfag?
Asking for a friend.
Jordan Morris
I would stop blogposting
Elijah Gomez
Full force in the etc.
Gavin Morgan
that mostly applies to miyazaki directed films
Takahata's movies are all different from each-other and there's visual diversity as well
Caleb King
>anything other than animation quality What about the gorgeous backgrounds, well written stories (some, obviously) and masterful direction? If their reason is "lmao so different" or "it's just really magical," sure, write it off. But you're the sub-100 if you think the only thing those films have going for them is animation quality.
