The difference is who is making the statement.

Speaker = Elitist
Target = Casual

Casuals are a lot worse, though at least you can tend to recommend shows and they'll like a lot of them.

I prefer talking to elitists because they generally will have stronger opinions on things. They'll have good reasons as to why they like something and why they dislike something. Casuals will have neither.

How the fuck.

Casual and Elitist arent polar opposites.

You can be both. You can be a casual and rage because x casual anime isnt as good as y anime for bullshit elitist reasons.

It's not like I said they were mutually exclusive, but the question was asking it as if they were so I answered it as such.

Neither, Priests are the objectively worst anime fans.

Never have I ever run into such entitled, obsessed drones who almost inevitably lose their shit the minute you point out one small flaw of UBW. They're the new LOGH elitists.

I guess the type to annoy me more are the ones that rely exclusively on hype and word of mouth to even know an anime exists and thus only end up seeing the biggest ones.

Same with video games really, the type who just play FIFA, The Sims, Assassin's Creed or CoD just piss me off so much.

Spoken like a true secondary.

And btw Fate > LOGH. I don't see LOGH selling a 500 dollar blu ray box any time soon.


A dense fool such as yourself probably doesn't even think before he joins a "MAL movement" for the sake of fitting in. This is my problem with many anime fans, they're not individual, once they join a craze, they become a collective entity. It's like I'm talking to the same person every time. Seeing you're the one who even posted the thread advocating for Priests to keep their shit in UBW-related threads, for a minute I thought you could think for yourself, but "YOLO MAN FUCK THAT SHIT" had to come in your mind because you're desperate for the attention you crave here. Paint this as flaming, but I'm clearly not. I'm simply stating your actions as they have been in a matter of four days.

I think this argument comes down to what is worse:

Elitists: Aggressive bullies who are rude and spiteful

Casuals: Annoying Victims who don't even try to get out of being victims, and cry as loud and often as possible.

Extreme casuals who act like they know everything about anime when the only animes theyve watched are dbz, naruto, and AoT in dub are pretty damn annoying, but elitists who act like they're superior over you because theyve watched 400 anime and spent a majority of their lifetimes watching chinese cartoons are even worse.

In all seriousness, the only good anime fans are the ones who are able to hold positive discourse with fellow fans. Yes there can be criticism towards shows, because no anime is indeed perfect, but it should never have one ego dominating the conversation, otherwise it will further arouse suspicions of both casuals and elitists alike.

While I'm not so sure about monsters - that seems much more niche, but incest is an interesting one.

I think, that while incest gets a strong inital negative reaction, male viewers can come to terms with it - especially when there are "less offensive" categories like cousins, half-related, and adoptive.
So incest is less challenging sexually - it's a broader challenge to the western value-system, but in comparison to a wholly different kind of sexuality: homosexuality - it's not as big an obstacle.

Spot on, man.

SAO fans aren't at all vocal, at least to me. In fact I sorta sympathize with some of them. I'm not too much a fan of the anime but I gotta feel for their fans when they get crapped on for almost little to no reason. Almost makes me want to replace SAO fans with SAO haters. Either that or Priests.

SAO fans were mostly outspoken victims.

As they are no longer getting shit they have no reason to be vocal anymore.

Priests are different in that they go out and abuse others intentionally, across all boards.
