Why is anime so appealing to losers?

Why is anime so appealing to losers?

their expressions are really easy to read which make autistic people more comfortable. also almost all anime is written with an exorbitant amount of exposition which is good for the autists because they have trouble thinking

Are you autistic?

>almost all anime is written with an exorbitant amount of exposition
This is the biggest problem I have with it.

I work with autistic fucks a lot, and you haven't a clue what goes on in their heads.

> So Robin Williams, Quentin Tarantino, Keanu Reeves, and Samuel L. Jackson are losers?

Kek

Yeah but i dont think they watch trash anime for autistic child like To-love ru

how's Robin doing?

Ever heard of escapism?

Anime is specifically appealing to losers, escapism is too much a cookie cutter term for this phenomenon.

Because they love the fucking idea that some day a fucking hero is gonna come and save the day or they are going to get some type of stupid super power, instead of moving of their asses and going out there to make something happend. Gtfo there and fight for something that has any meaning to you.

It's easy to digest. It's high-octane serotonin/dopamine fuel; jokes are simple and straight-forward, it's obvious who the main protagonist is, and things usually always go as expected, which autistics love.

>Gtfo there and fight for something that has any meaning to you.
The majority of autistic people I've worked with only please their immediate desires, any one of them that doesn't is pretty considered low on the spectrum and can take care of themselves and be self-sufficient. State ain't gunna fund some normie who maybe gets a little irate if you use a word wrong or something.

well when it's so extreme to the point of being funny that's on purpose. like nichijou

Its escapism for losers who can't deal with the real world

They usually like Thomas as well

Also for people who have no real understanding of how two people actually have a conversation. Dialogue in anime is usually cringy or melodramatic as fuck

Because losers also tend to be stupid, and virtually all anime is written at a 2nd grade level, with almost all dialogue being expository, 1 dimensional characters, simple "hero quest" plotlines, and bad art that basically spell out character motivations and thats so limited that the only way to differentiate between characters in their hair color.

There is a reason only children, autists and stoners watch anime.

It's the Japanese equivalent of professional wrestling.

Fucking kek, this seems accurate. There's really no more than a handful of truly good anime. Most of it is weird as fuck and terrible. What's funny is that anime that considered "critically and significantly good" is usually rejected by the anime autists for being crap. I'm going to save this.

Professional wrestling in incredibly popular in Japan. Newspapers have match results along side baseball scores.

Akira and Studio Ghibli movies are literally the only good animes

dude...

I live in Japan. It's just part of normal culture here. It's a multi-billion dollar industry. I talk to people here and they're flabbergasted when I tell them most Americans consider it for children or losers.

pic related, there's no casinos in Japan, but pachinko/slots. A lot of them are anime-themed.

Mono no aware.

>tfw it's cooler to hate things in the states and on Sup Forums

Another pic of Sof-Map, basically like Best Buy in Japan, although there's many other competitor big box stores.

Yeah that's correct. Only good anime list:

Ghost in the Shell
Akira
Ghibli
Cowboy Bebop
Ninja Scroll
-----------------------------
Trigun
Vampire Hunter D
Black Lagoon
Gundam Wing
Death Note

The ones above the line are top tier, below is acceptable. Rest is shit.

It's true. It's a weird feeling. The latest big thing was "Kimi no Na wa" ("Your name"), it's a box office buster here. Everyone, young and old, men and women, they all love it.

I've also noticed that the general feeling of "cute" just means more like "pleasing to the eye", like visually attractive. It's not just kiddy, small animal kind of cute. Men say things are cute all the time which I sometimes get caught off-guard by.

You left out JoJo you fucking faggot

On the contrary, a lot of Japanese didn't like Cowboy Bepop. America is just different from Japan which results in the differences of opinion toward anime in general. It's mostly for kids and losers in US, but in Japan almost everyone watches it.

Right. That's why my list is the only objectively good anime.

Funny how people are posting about this in a board that started as a anime image site. Therefore making all of us losers

wtf is wrong with to love ru

but we dont post about anime, and dont discuss anime

it's shit

Anime discussion on Sup Forums is basically dead at this point

>likes Jojo
>calls SOMEONE ELSE a faggot

You anime losers are beyond retarded.

Good.

Fair enough, GitS is good and ninja scroll is classic stoner cinema. I'll allow it.

Why? Because.

Yeah. I guess I agree.

...

Some of them are really good, but not all of course.
to my own i really like the dark ones, Death Note, Darker than Black, Hellsing.
I HATE those ...how to say... those fucking iam a 10 years old girl and i show my underwear all the time while iam playing or fucking stundy in the clasroom ones

Losers? Some of the most successful people I know who work in DC watch the most weab shit I've ever seen

You are right now lol

>almost all anime

i think you mean almost all cheap and overly hyped anime series

Because all the women in their life abandoned them and they are to beta to deal with it.

Hot girls thats why because they are incapable of getting a gf because its too complicated so they find hot asian cartoon women as an escape, sorta like me but weed

Weed is not an escape... its medicine... for whatever the hell i have.

Yeah, but your wrong because that's your opinion. Your metric is flawed.

>objectively good
You're an idiot.

lol yeah i'm still rolling my eyes whenever it turns out a brainless liberal likes anime

colour me surprised

It was a joke. Seriously though, that's the only good anime out there. Don't even really care to see if you disagree if that list, it's as close to objectively good as it gets.

Most anime is mindless and easy to consume pandering to the most basic needs and urges.
I like anime as a medium, and I watch anime regularly, but I make sure before i even start that what im watching isnt just a mindless slice of life boob gawker.
As for losers, maybe im a loser maybe not, Ive been working since i was 16, going to college so far out of pocket without loans, good grades good income and moderately successful sex life.
Same friends ive had for over a decade now, childhood friends can be inseperable.
Maybe im a loser idk, but i like anime while recognizing it for the cancerous shitfest it can be sometimes.

>It's mostly for kids and losers in US, but in Japan almost everyone watches it.
Nope, it's just the same in Japan. Anime is for kids.

well fuck me look at all the autism being thrown around in this thread

case
in
point

It may seem to be, but the most autistic autists are the vocal minority, i know a ton of people who watch anime and none of them except maybe one or two are going overboard with it.

Some anime is pretty cool (death note being one that comes to mind) but the vast mainstream anime is just about big anime tiddies and overpowered MCs with superpowers.

So basically its not about anime itself, its about the consumer and what they do with the content.

my 2 cents

>be hard working japanese businessman
>parents, grandparents died in the war
>watch country descend into manchild anime hellokitty faggotry
>FML
>get drunk on sakke eating sushi off titties

dont forget how most characters are sterotypes.
the stereotypes even have names and their behavior plays out in a predictable way.
Together with better readebility of overacted emotions even autist get that shit.

Not hating on japsy stereotypical writing its just their style.

This, I can't believe some of the shit people watch. There are some legitimately good anime, but only a few

Samurai Champloo and Space Dandy are also good. Watanabe has talent

He's doing good ... just hanging around you know .

To be fair, neither do the autists.

Why is watching sports so appealing to losers?

>1 dimensional characters
>simple "hero quest" plotlines
Not realizing nearly every story is just a retelling of The Hero's Journey. (pic related)

>There are some legitimately good anime, but only a few
this though

You got it on GITS, and Akira.

Some of Ghibli's publications are decent from a cinematic viewpoint, but a lot of the stories are shit tier rehashings.

Bebop was just a rewrite of the story from Trigun with more space sprinkled in. Same story arc for the characters, but at least they did it well with Bebop.

The rest you listed are merely shit tier autism magnets.

>Some of Ghibli's publications are decent from a cinematic viewpoint, but a lot of the stories are shit tier rehashings.
This. Ghibli is overrated as fuck.

That's a funny way to spell "Disney".
