Sorry to bother all of you, and getting you a little involved in some random argument.

I just want to know, was there anyone here, who didn't understand what they were meant to reply with, to this thread because I didn't specifically ask "what are your examples of this?", or was that self explanatory?

Like were you at all confused about what you were meant to comment.?

@APolygons2 Lol, yeah I don't know what that argument is about exactly but for the record I think it's pretty obvious what the thread is about. If you name a thread "bearded men in anime" then its pretty self explanatory what the thread is about. I don't know if there specifically has to be like a question , I remember talking to a mod once that did sort of imply that it was kind of important that the topic must "generate constructive discussion" or something in that vein but I have seen plenty of threads in the form of "share moments of X" so I don't know how strict or what the exact requirements are exactly. Anyway, all this is to say, I don't know dude.

I understood the purpose of this thread based on the original post to be a discussion of exceptional moments and parts in series that stands far above the rest of the material. That being said, Merve2Love has not been rude enough to justify a response of "you are an actual fucking idiot". Between this and the fact you pinged me of all people does come across as a bit too...self-conscious, I think?

Calm your boobs, my dude. You are being WAY too aggressive based on what little I have bothered to read.

OT: The moment in Monster that I will always remember will be Tenma training with the man and his adoptive daughter. I think that for all the revelations and intrigue, that this is an incredibly pivotal moment for Tenma as a character. I think Monster is a good enough adaptation, but this moment was truly special.



It was also the episode that introduced me to the idea of doubletapping.

Oh I think you have misunderstood something, This isn't about this thread, this gal has been doing this anytime she sees me. It's a long fought battle, I would never be rude to someone based on 1 comment. It's been an ongoing thing for a very long time, and she has tried over and over to specifically get under my nerves.

I would never call someone names normally. In fact she is the only person on this entire website that I have ever done this to, and have gotten this mad over. I have tried so hard to block her, to make it so I can't see her. but mal just doesn't give you the option to do that. at least not in a way that matters.

I'm not playing it up: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2156242&msgid=70901568

I have been trying my damn best to ignore her.

Sorry again for pinging you

What? Maybe I misunderstood, but you're asking for examples, right? Gintama up until the Farewell arc was great. It quickly deteriorated in quality after that. Do you want me to give you the exact episodes or arcs?

After the Shogun and Farewell arcs, which were masterpieces, the subsequent Silver Soul Arc wasn't. Also, Gintama (2006) was fun, but it wasn't a masterpiece, only certain mini arcs were. I don't consider the entirety of the Gintama series to be a masterpiece, but there were definitely sections that were great and beyond my initial expectations of the show as a whole.

I mean you could just put BONES anime as the answer and save a ton of time. Like how my fav part of Captain Earth was the talent hunt on earth episodes on earth. While I love Captain Earth as a whole, I very much understand why other people think it's not a great show.

I could say the same about X'amd: Lost Memories, or even the Eureka 7:Hi Evolution 1 movie. The 34 min prequel to the anime was phenomenal. The rest of the movie took arguably the best 2 to 3 episodes of the entire show and turned it into a subpar movie.

Golden Kamuy part 4 was shockingly uneven, especially considering how Golden Kamuy exists at a higher level than most anime. But the better adapted parts of that season were so good, they made up for everything else. For instance, after watching that episode, you will never think about slo mo Matrix dodging the same way ever again.

Outlaw Star had the Race episodes, and Jim Hawkings date. The show is just ok, but when it's on fire, it's ON FIRE.

FMP: Invisible Victory might also be the banner anime for your list. The first arc and the last revenge arc, about 4 to 5 episodes was phenomenal. Everything else in that anime can burn in a fire.

Shaman King remake was doing the damn thing till it ran out episodes to tell a story and started going downhill. But from the actual journey to the Shaman fight on, they made certain that certain arcs still hit with the force of truck-kun.

G-Witch season 1 was nice enough, but that season 1 finale was something else. Too bad season 2 couldn't bring it home.

My last pick is Radiant season 1. The first 2/3rds of the anime are bland setup. The last few episodes are so great they force you to watch season 2. Where everything is on 10 from the jump. Which is why I gave season 2 a 10/10. All that started just because I stuck with Radiant till it actually started to shine.

@Rhae don't it won't make sense, this is just the latest development in the fight, jumping in now would mess up all the character arcs, there is a lot of history here I tell you.

I will come off as unreasonably aggressive without knowing everything that has happened between the two warriors of this argument.

Re zero season 1 had quite lot of masterpiece parts. Since it was non stop torture porn. But I say season 2 felt like a drop off. So people saying re zero is the best anime of all time largely refer to season 1
@SpiderMiles3523 no, they largely refer to season 2, there's a reason why season 2 has a higher score than season 1

@JP88 Because all the people who rated season 1 poorly didn't come back for season 2 to rate it poorly, so it has a higher percentage of high votes. Nearly 750K more people voted on season 1 than season 2. With only a .1-point difference, Id argue that if you only took the votes of people who voted on both seasons into account, season 1 would very likely have a higher score.

The Mother's Rosario arc of SAO, I really loved this one arc despite thinking the rest of the series kinda sucks.
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked?

dbz ep 185/186, gohan snaps and becomes a badass

kobayashi's dragon maid - kanna and tohru "playing?" in a random field (dont remember ep) epic animation quality/fight scene

World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman - ep 10? moroha vs russian terror. total C tier show...but that ep was actually great(in comparison to the rest of the show lol)

So I'm a Spider, So What? - kumoko vs araba. super intense fight, great voice acting, imho 10/10 fight

Log Horizon S2 - Ultimate Raid Party scenes. both on the dungeon fight, and the Akihabara fight

@ToG25thBaam agree, their entire relationship was the most interesting thing in the show to the point that after their fight ended I lost interest in the show, not because it wasn't good but because the Archer plotline was too good
@Guilmon1 Same, I wasn't interested in the Gilgamesh conflict towards the end of the series, because of how good that Shirou vs Archer was. I watched Heavens Feel after and while the story is different, it's nowhere near as interesting as Shirou vs Archer.


@APolygons2 It's pretty clear to me what the purpose of the post was, it's self explanatory.

Thoughts in order:
1) I red your statement in the first post almost a month ago.
2) You gave examples to clarify your statement.
3) I didn't detected a question, so I checked the title again.
4) I conclude you probably want us to generate more examples that support your statement.
5) I did not respond a month ago, cause I wasn't sure what to respond to & I didn't want to look like an idiot.
6) A month later I see this topic on top again, I go through some comments & see everybody is generating examples that support your statement.
7) I make my own reply
1 Of the recent ones I remember is Ragna Crimson. A pretty good first extra long episode, much better then the rest of the show combined.


___now I get tagged___

I red the whole topic again lol. I suspect someone deleted some comment of his/her, that kickstarted the whole argument. So I can't judge on that.

Merve2Love says: "You didn't ask a single question." I have to agree with this. You didn't ask a question, you gave a statement and clarified it further with examples.
The fact everybody generates more examples just support your statement.


*EDIT = I didn't saw the second page of comments, so you have a feud with this person? Ignore her then, don't let her get under your skin.
I know a cool Spanish proverb that would translate roughly into this -> "There's no bigger contempt then not showing any appreciation"

I had a few examples, but of arcs or half the story, which I can answer with on threads with different names. I'll also exclude comedies, for "obvious" reasons.
For specific episodes/situations, I'll go with:
Gundam: IBO often had bad plot points. However, the conclusions and characters were always great. It's the only series I've seen where I love it and hate it for the same reasons.
Battle Athletes Victory ReSTART was pretty average with sub-par animation, but every scene with the detective were great.
Battle spirits: Heroes. The ending was not at all what one would have expected, so it isn't liked as much. I respect it though, and appreciate it more than the rest of the show.
Beyblade burst Turbo: Actually had a character arc, which was great to see. The ending was good, the beginning was fine, then went downhill as the MC was worsening, but then shot up. I just need to reiterate how odd it is in these types of shows, where having an arrogant, agressive and hot-headed MC was the norm in the 2000s.
That one scene in Vanguard where a bear shows up to participate in a tourney.
Flip Flappers. It was overall good, the ending was meh, but there was that one episode, where one of the characters was a child, and that was really good (per what I recall of it).
Good Night World. ""
Inferno Cop's "No, you!" in episode 2.
Ranking of King, for like 4 episodes (3-7)
7 of 7 had a really slow beginning, then introduced a character which felt out of nowhere, only to take that and make the show actually good up to the end.
The volleyball scene for the Fate cooking show. Like, the whole show is good, but that was a cut above.
In Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's, there was one duel that I liked much more than the rest, and it was never dubbed. The one against team Taiyou with Zushin.
That part in Zombieland Saga where the MC just starts rapping.

Just in response to the person who said Megalobox S2 Episodes 1-4. That was fine, but it was not unique in any ways. It was well produced, but when it actually lead to the main story, I knew the rest of the season would be great.

First - That's not self-centeredness. Different thing. Don't take it to heart. Getting blocked by me shouldn't really affect your life. It's not what we're talking about, right now.

Well.

First - That's not self-centeredness. Different thing. Don't take it to heart. Getting blocked by me shouldn't really affect your life. It's not what we're talking about, right now.

Second - You werent blocked for having a different opinion. You know that :) You were blocked for randomly sending me Reviews and reports, that you typed up^^

Self obsession, just like OP. I don't want that. Im not your fan. Im sorry^^

LMAO you do know there's written proof of anything i've sent you, random reviews (about the anime we were talking about at the time, very random), and reports? Do you have any reciepts to back this up?

*i thought my dyslexic ass read that last one wrong for a moment, but no, you were serious

What debating with DigiCat is like according to APolygons2
That's why I thought a discussion would be pointless. It doesn't feel like a debate. It feels like I'm playing chess and somehow lose to an uno reverse card after loosing all my monopoly money lol

@Merve2Love Apparently she is trolling, but i wholeheartly agree with this comment
@Flick_on Why? Nowhere in the op or title did it say to give an actual reason, so why does op need to? The purpose is clear. Obviously you can give a reason as to why you think something is a "masterpiece", but that wasn't part of the prompt from what I could tell. And this is coming from someone who isn't exactly new to misreading things. It's not up to this Merve person to decide whether or not this thread encourages conversation. That's on the mods.

Code Geass R2 was inconsistent and messy but the ending is one of the best in anime for sure. Also gotta shout out this fight scene from Street Fighter II: The Movie.
Take care of yourself

From what I'm saying, a lot of people think that Oshi no Ko's first episode is the only peak part (Eh, opinions. I love the whole thing, but my opinion is equally as invalid, so oh well). My choice personally is the first Lupin III. The second half of that anime is almost completely golden, but the first half is just so boring that it destroys any chance of this getting masterpiece status.
@ Daviljoe193
Personally I liked a fair amount of the first half of Lupin the Third Part 1. If you just want something similar to the better known in the west Part 2 I can see why you would hate the first half but there are some beautiful and charming episodes in there. That being said the show as a whole is way too much of a mixed bag with the animation quality, direction and tone being all over the place due to it's troubled production for it to be a "masterpiece".

@Flick_on I'll make sure to include the question too from now on.

Seems like most people got it, but it doesn't hurt to add, I will add it to this thread too.

@Jackson1333 By that logic Mushoku Tensei season 2 should have a higher score than season 1
@JP88 It doesn't work that way, remember, the majority of people rating a sequel are people who liked the first season. So if the score is lower, it means people who liked the first season, rated it lower. In order for a score to go Up, they need to simply rate it exactly the same, or even slightly lower, and it can still get an average higher then the first season, because it doesn't have the weight of all the people giving it really bad scores to weight it down.

For example, if 10 people rate a show a 9, and 10 people rate it a 5, the average is 7

now if all 10 of the people who gave season 1 a 9 rated season 2 an 8, and only 2 people who rated season 1 a 5 came back and rated season 2 a 5, the average is 7.5

So season 2 gets a higher average, even though all its scored are technically lower.

@Jackson1333 This is a very simple way of looking at it, you're not wrong, but there is way more to the scores than that.

Even the sequel bias only applies when the next season is "more of the same, but just as good or better".

If there is a drastic shift it can split up the fans.

For example, despite the near perfect adaptation, the manga of made in abyss has a higher rating than every single one of the arcs. Why? cause the parts are so different from each other, that none of the fans can agree on which one is the best and which one is the worst. So what happens is that, the sum of the entire story, will always be more liked than any individual part. because everyone's favourite part, or the ranking of every part is completely different.

But that's just scratching the surface, I once made a guide on how the scores really work: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2132750

And there is even more to it than that, as you see in the comments from people mentioning other points.

Well, Stiens;Gate episodes 1-12 are only above average episodes if you are theorizing into the future... whereas episodes 13-24 actually feel like a masterpiece.

Akiba Maid War Episodes 1 and 10 are masterpieces... the others, they are just really good. 👍

My Hero Academia S1 episodes 1-9 were alright... maybe a 7/10... but Episodes 10-13 are literally some of my favorite battle shounen fights ever. Those 4 episodes are all 20/10s.
BEASTARS Season 3 will be the best anime ever :)

@Jackson1333 sure but there's also people like me who didn't like season 1 and loved season 2, you are assuming they'll rate season 2 poorly just because they rated season 1 poorly, and that's the problem, you're ignoring the reason why a lot of people didn't like/dropped season 1.

I'm just saying, Vivy:fluorite eyes song could have ended after 6 episodes. Not that the episodes after the 6th one were bad, but the first six were so well-written and felt complete story-wise that adding more was doing it a disservice

There are definitely a lot of moments where MHA jumps from being mid to being kino, them immediately falls back down afterwards.

Not masterpiece level but the last couple episode of the Sword AIDS online arc were a surprising step up from the rest of the show.
