Anime - Why do most people here hate it? - General

[QUOTE=Chris122990;21700114] [B]Examples of Good Anime:[/B] DragonBall Z (Fucking Bad Ass): [img_thumb]http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s297/Chris122990/DBZ-Wallpaper.jpg[/img_thumb] [/QUOTE] Dbz had an original story but there were far too many plot twists. Plus it's got one of the ugliest art styles I've ever seen.

I don't like anime because there is rarely any creativity in the art style. I know there are a few exceptions, but compared to the variety in western cartoons, it all looks exactly the same. Even worse is all of the people who buy those "Learn Anime Instantly!" books, and learn how to draw perfect anime... but that's all they can do. They never ended up developing their own artstyle. Just more of the same. I will admit, however, that the overall quality of western cartoons today has dropped to a painfully low standard. I fucking hate all of the shit that is spewed out of cartoon network today. What ever happened to amazing shows like Megas XLR or Dexter's Lab? The other reason I don't like anime is because it turns people into [url=http://holycrapthatsfunny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/cosplay.jpeg]complete freaks.[/url]

[QUOTE=gnome;21700429]Fair enough. Not every anime adorer is like you though.[/QUOTE] Actually most is. But it's the extremely overly obsessed freaks that you hear about because they're extremely overly obsessed freaks, so everyone talks about them and they get in the news.

There are several exceptions. The generic looking shows looks generic because they are made to just harvest money and that's it. 100% pure commercial bullshit. And yeah, the fanbase is as we all know drop dead retarded, they can hardly draw anime and think they are drawing Gods and unique. If you want some more unique looking shows you should watch shows [url=http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?p=44]made by SHAFT since they started producing their own shows.[/url] That would be any show since and after "Tsukuyomi -MOON PHASE-". Also [url=http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?p=13]Studio 4C, they do nothing but being experimental.[/url] I never really liked Megas XLR. Dexter was awesome though. No. It's not turning people into freaks. It just attracts freaks. You don't just turn into some weird ass person, you are a weird ass person and find something that makes you feel like expressing it because you are a retarded weird ass person.

I fucking hate people that whine about anime because of big eyes and shit like that. There is different Anime artists. Example: Anime. Almost normal eyes.

Huge eyes. [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c3/Princesss_jazmine.jpg[/img] ^this and all Disney cartoons. If you don't like the style because it's "alien" and you're conservative up the ass, fine, just don't wordvomit it everywhere.

Oh. It's this thread again.

I don't know about you guys, but Paranoia Agent was good.

Anime makes people into fucktards. If they are into anime then they watch anime porn and probably have some 6 year old with tits and palm sized eyes in their avatar and it is incredibly girly, is generally poorly written and highly over rated.

some dude was all "Hey watch cowboy bebop its good anime" and i'm like WTF THERE'S NO COWBOYS IT'S IN SPACE and he's all dude you're retard it's just a name, western tv shows use that like house and i'm all Dude House is his name, the show is actually called House M.D and he's all OMG YOU ANIME HATER Dude why call it cowboy bebop if there's no cowboys... It's like if they called Futurama "Volcanoes and popsicles"

Because of the people who watch it.

[QUOTE=Diet Kane;21702509]Cowboy Bebop is a great series. Stop being so anal.[/QUOTE] There's no cowboys. At least "western" cartoons have matching names.

I don't like it because i saw what it can do to people. My sister became a huge weaboo. My school was full of those "anime is superior" people. One chick i know reads this one manga because the guy in it is cute and she never shuts up about him. Thankfully though my sister no longer has some insane infatuation with it. Now she's obsessed with Egypt.

It's like if they called Futurama "Volcanoes and popsicles"[/QUOTE] Actually they call themselves cowboys in the show. They are bounty hunters and the ship he travels in is called Bebop. There is also a show in the show where they are dressed up like western cowboys and announcing bounties for all the bounty hunters.

[QUOTE=Batmoutarde;21702545]There's no cowboys. At least "western" cartoons have matching names.[/QUOTE] They're SPACE cowboys (kind of like in Firefly) and their ship is called the Bebop. Name explained.

[QUOTE=Lemonator;21702462]Anime makes people into fucktards. .[/QUOTE] You must watch a lot then. :v:

[QUOTE=GoldenGnome;21702615]this is why [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/13/Lucky_Star_main_characters.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] What an excellent reason!

Because of the Japanese voice actors, mostly the women voice actors. Manga's good.

[QUOTE=Chris122990;21702630]They're SPACE cowboys (kind of like in Firefly) and their ship is called the Bebop. Name explained.[/QUOTE] I'll make a show and call my characters SPACE CLOWNS and dress them like nazis Not a reason to call the show CLOWNS

[QUOTE=Egevened;21697646]this is good looking stuff: [img]http://natknits.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/spike.jpg[/img] i never watched any anime but i know that you can't generalize a genre[/QUOTE] Anime generally doesn't do anything for me, but I remember this as being a really cool show.

[QUOTE=Batmoutarde;21702649]I'll make a show and call my characters SPACE CLOWNS and dress them like nazis Not a reason to call the show CLOWNS[/QUOTE] You're quite the thick one aren't you? They call themselves space cowboys and ride a ship called Bebop, how does that not justify the name of the show? How the fuck is calling the show a name better than calling it after what the people are?

the only animes i like are The legend of black heaven, which most people who hate anime like, and bobobo-bo-bobobo because it is "Hurr xD randum" because it used to come on late at night when i laugh at literally everything, even if it isn't funny. [editline]10:14PM[/editline] oh, and the [B]FIRST[/B] gundam and Lupin the 3rd was cool

[QUOTE=Rahkshi lord;21700981]At least the artstyle isn't all over the place like western animation.[/QUOTE] But that's exactly what makes me like western cartoons better than anime. The high level of variety makes it great. You can have an awesome show that looks like this: [IMG]http://opinionsandexpressions.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/dexters-lab.gif[/IMG] Or an awesome comic which looks like this: [IMG]http://gaygamer.net/images/sin%20city%20ladies.jpg[/IMG]
