Acknowledging my distance from "real" anime fans.
Anime Relations:
86
Finding well-informed and well-argued criticisms for popular or endlessly praised shows can be difficult. Steins Gate, Madoka Magicka, Gurren Lagann are some of the examples. The shows share some commonalities: 1, my appreciation for them are drastically limited due to criticisms I believe valid; 2, I don't hate them, just struggle to locate them in my personal top shows; 3, when trying to find well-informed criticisms online, it's far easier to find enthusiastic fans defending or worshipping these shows.
That led me to realize that I might not be a "real" hardcore anime fan. Perhaps I need a more streamlined way to make peace with that. Also, I still don't like trolls. Reading an apparent troll review of "86" and finding out it received hundreds of upvotes is frustrating. Not only is it full of unbridled prejudice and ranting. The whole review's logic is broken, and people here apparently love reading that?
Again, there's got to be a better way to vent about these, and make peace.
