| He's interesting. He does present his feelings as facts a lot but I think it just adds to the content. He made a video about anime elitists and it generated a thread and that's how I got to know him and I respect his opinions even if they are different from mine. |

 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| I don't think he's necessarily "right" when it comes to opinions, but stuff like his asterisk war series review was very entertaining. I just don't bother watching his long videos, and if I disagree with him about a certain show, I just won't watch that video. About presenting feelings as facts, that's something everyone does, it's not like digibro is exempt from human nature. |
 |
| From my experience, everything he says is incredibly basic and not really worthwhile. And yes, he is rather condescending with his opinions at times. Life's too short to waste it on watching 20+ videos on why an anime sucks. |

| I always form my opinions on whatever I see, I don't really concern myself with other peoples taste. If I didn't enjoy an anime, I didn't. If you disagree with me then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Frankly, I've only seen 2-3 videos of his AssWars hate speech/rant and I agree AssWars is worst but making 12+ videos on how bad it was just makes me think he is going too far. Plus he once compared A1 studios with McDonalds which I found hilarious. I like that autistic feg but I couldn't care less. |
 I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons, if you were you wouldn't be on MAL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extended families or lovers on MAL are a farce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Nahhh im good without his super analysis, thank you. For proper analysis, MAL community is better lol |
| he just shares his perspective on shows and can articulate his feelings well. flaws are matter of perspective and sometimes i like to hear others opinion on things to see how other view same thing differently it would be good if he stops making negative videos on incompetent,garbage shows like asterisk wars and concentrate more on videos like a 'loving thesis k-on'. |

| He's absolutely spot on.. He's also pretty brash without being triggerworthy.. |
| Well reasoned out and usually spot on, he's my go to guy for my fix of anime analysis... .... but, I don't really know why he prefers long form analysis(not that I'm complaining, though...) I'm just wondering. FYI, he managed to made me rewatch Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry and rate it higher(even to go so far as putting it in my favorites) too...just from his words alone...even though he explicitly said that it's an average anime...haha! |

| I don't really 'watch' his videos, because there's nothing to look at, but as something to have in the background, they're irreplaceable in my opinion. |
 |
| He has some good ideas, but I've never been able to go through one of his videos in its entirety just because of how long it takes for him to get to the point. I think AnimeEveryday is better, but the problem with AnimeEveryday is that he sometimes uses clickbait titles for more views (like a video titled "Why Modern Anime Sucks" or something along those lines and then doesn't even conclude such in the video). |

| well digibros videos are very hit or miss for me some of his analisis are interesting but the fact that he seems unable to wrap up his thoughts in less than 20 minutes and constantly repeats himself it makes his videos really boring |
| i don't like it somehow. analyses anime, fiding the flaws, what's good and what's bad about it, i'm not into something like that. i prefer chibi https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfGmaA-nXPryTfimsnkLieQ or for the funny one, TheAnimeMan. |
 |
| Thanks for making gakusen toshi asterisk popular in the west. And it's funny he had to backtrack and start praising Rakudai when he implied it was trash XD |
 |
| I don't mind him but too many times he thinks that his opinion = fact. And he won't change it no matter what. But he does some interesting content. As long as it is not about particular series. |

gabrielrroiz said: the problem with animeeveryday that he just present lists with good titles but never explains his reasonings and what is good about these shows so there is very little content in his videos He usually has in-depth videos for most of his favorites. His list videos are superficial. __________________________________________________________________ Digi is polemic as fuck, likes to talk a lot when there's little to say and uses gonzo journalism to justify his lack of tact. He's also comes out as a snob, acting high and mighty and asking to be entertained. He also cares too much about how people think about him. But when he decides to make quality videos they are pretty good videos. The cute girls anime one for example was pretty informative. |
 It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.But does the heart have the right perspective? |
| In the end, he's just that one anime youtuber, same old same old. If I actually looking for in-depth review, MAL is still a far better place. |
 |
| Best analyst on Youtube, lol. He really likes what he does and he puts effort into it. There are no analyst on Youtube other than him anyway. |
| I like is long videos because I can just play them in the background while I play games or something. I usually agree with him or at least feel he argued his point well. He's just as biased as anyone else but actually acknowledges it. Overall, his approach to media is exactly the same is mine so of course I'm going to like his videos. As for presenting his opinion as fact, literally everyone does that, especially on MAL, you shouldn't have to put a disclaimer before everything to avoid triggering people. |
 |
| He's a K-on fag who secretly wants to suck TAS' dick and drops too much anime I don't find his analyses one bit impressive and his videos are overall very boring (except for his Boku Dake ga Inai Machi review just because it was fun to see all them edgy fanboys getting their panties in a twist) |
 Nico- said: Conversations with people pinging/quoting me to argue about some old post I wrote years ago will not be entertained@Comic_Sans oh no y arnt ppl dieing i need more ppl dieing rly gud plot avansement jus liek tokyo ghoul if erbudy dies amirite |
| Annoying than the most annoying character I have ever seen on anime(There are lots but he manages to get on top). I wouldn't stay and watch his LONG VIDEOS that sounds repetitive and basic. An idiot that over complicates simple things just to sound smart. If I need reviews and other stuff related to anime. MAL and ANN can provide. It's not just his opinions I hate. It's just how he expresses it that makes me angry . He made 2 rant video series dedicated to specifically hating on anime from A-1 Pictures (Sword Art Online and The Asterisk War). If anything, that's a clear sign of bias, which is not surprising since the guy believes nostalgia is important in anime. Also, this guy needs to know that not all anime are going to be like The Asterisk War. We had a lot of good anime like One Punch Man and Death Parade in 2015, so not all anime is generic. This douchebag just needs to stop hating and shut up about anime he hates. Finally, IF YOU SEE AN ANIME YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LIKE, THEN DON'T WATCH IT! In fact, he put a link to The Asterisk War on Crunchyroll, which is actually promoting the show rather than telling people to stay away from it. His "Your Favorite Anime Sucks" series are the stupidest things I have ever seen from Digibro. |

| Your next line is "I was just pretending to be retarded". |
| Meh. Digibro dwells a lot on each point of a show to the point of making 12 videos on why an anime sucks and makes his videos kinda boring. You can marathon an anime instead of watching that . he's a bit too negative about some shows imo . He showed some good analysis in a couple videos though. I liked how he explained Tetsurou Araki's success in anime industry. But that's just it. |

Check out Pause and Select, you might be surprised. There are good anime analysts on Youtube (AnimeEveryday is another). They just aren't controversial like Digi, so they don't get views. AnimeEveryday doesn't make analysis videos like Digi at all. I haven't heard about Pause and Select though, gonna check it out. |

ichii_1 said: Thanks for making gakusen toshi asterisk popular in the west. And it's funny he had to backtrack and start praising Rakudai when he implied it was trash XD Well, when you find a coiled-up doggy turd on the sidewalk and call it "stinky," and then you walk further down the street and spot a miniaturized crime against nature left behind by an unknowable Lovecraftian horror loafing in the sun, you begin to regret assigning the label "stinky" to the former when it clearly more properly belongs to the latter. |

| His analysis are excellent. I have a 90% compatibility with him because I always agree with what he's saying. Here's a link to those who still think that Digibro is biased. It's not a video. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BQ2QIRVZpsWfRCuftZ4XB3EHPc60sqmjOgZqAoTbWZQ/edit |
  Rarity is Best Pony! |
| he's cool. Some of his videos are phenomenal: His explanation and love for the Ghost in the Shell series Anime vs Cartoon Best year for anime Some of his analysis is great but he's more of a old school anime viewer and I prefer newer anime. Watch him from time to time. |
| He is alright In my book. I don't really have any strong feelings towards many of these "online persona's". |
 |
| He makes some interesting points to think about sometimes, but most of his stuff is just basic facts or purely subjective opinions disguised as deep analysis by using pretentious and unnecessary long explanations. Just like doing a 15-minutes long video just about the opening scene of Kill La Kill, although the "analysis" mostly consists of describing the scene frame by frame like if he was trying to explain it to a dumb blind 5year old, and saying that each frame demonstrate the true genius of Trigger, juste because. In general, i have the same problem with him than with most self-proclaimed anime "critiques". To me they generally sound like people with an anime inferiority complex; they look like they to justify liking a medium considered as dumb and/or childish by overanalysing it in order to make it pass for a deep and revolutionary form of art. I mean, it sounds better to say that you love Fate/Zero because you like the truely nihilistic approach rather than because it has badass action and nice looking animation right? Same with K-on, i love the show but honestly his "K-on loving thesis" just sounds like a self-justification for liking a feel-good moe anime by describing it as a misunderstood masterpiece with god tier writing, so subtle that only him understood the underlying deep themes. |

| It does kinda baffle me that people are always like "RABBLE RABBLE DIGIBRO HATES EVERYTHING HE ONLY BADMOUTHS ANIME RABBLE RABBLE" when it's plainly obvious that, for every video he makes bashing one anime, he makes two videos praising others. A bunch of his dedicated review videos are for series he likes, and he's done a shitload of things like his "A Loving Thesis on K-On!" or "Everyone is Badass in Durarara!" and "Look at This Long List of Videos I Made About How Awesome Evangelion is and I'll Also Spend Several Videos Gushing About Anno Hideaki Because I Think He's a Goddamn Genius" videos. |

| 90% of youtube anime reviewers aren't really worth watching, and it's hard to find time for even the ones worth. So I especially don't *regularly* watch any of them I have no opinion on Digibro I just wanted to say that |
| ゴロゴロゴロ ゴロゴロゴロ ゴロゴロゴロ ゴロゴロゴロ ゴゴゴゴゴゴ ゴゴゴゴゴゴ ゴゴゴゴゴゴ |
| i only saw some of his video like the gurren lagann and kill la kill analysis as well as the video about the golden year of anime which is 2007 and those 2 videos are well analyze and are great imo, but i do not know much about majority of his video analysis though so i do not really know if he is really good or not im not a fan of video bloggers anyway |
ichii_1 said: Thanks for making gakusen toshi asterisk popular in the west.

If I remember in his video stated that its just less trash when compared to Asterisk, but still trash. |
| I think people get too offended over the shit he says about anime series tbh. We don't have the same taste in anime, as far as favorites go, but I enjoy the way he articulates his praise as well as criticisms for certain shows. I'm not really into watching anime reviewers honestly, but him, bobsamurai, and black critic guy can be more entertaining than others. Also, in his videos he clearly states how his reviews are based on his own opinions, so idk why there are people who say "he sees his opinions as facts". lol I can't remember the last time he explicitly said that or even subtly implied it. |
