Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Some might be the same, as it is a shounen. But despite being overhyped, SnK is no where nearly as horrible as SAO. |

ElPysCongroo said: so SAO is an anime for MMORPG lovers Well I personally hate MMORPGS the most of any game genre, but I loved the series. Maybe it's because regular RPGs are similar to MMORPGs, and I'm a big fan of them, I don't know, but yeah, odd that. Certainly MMORPG lovers would love the series a whole lot more than me though. |

Forgetfulness said: mitch3315 said: SAO fanboys were just the next generation of Mirai Nikki fanboys. But was Mirai Nikki EVER good? I dont know how good it was or if it was good but it wasnt bad either. There arent many anime that manages to make me watch it multiple times. In fact there are only 5 out of 100+ anime that I've watched that managed that: Haganai(1st season, I still watch it whenever I'm bored of the "watching" list), Jigoku Shoujo , Black Lagoon , True Tears , Steins;Gate. I'm still not bored of it along of the 5 mentioned. Bleach is too long to watch it more than 2 times a year. Also, I've caught up with the manga: |

MoeGalacticHero said: Prolly because you haven't rated it low. Try criticizing the pace or the excessive dialogue of the last two episodes. Or the stills. Or say Sasha isn't a good character. Or say it's overrated. Or say Eren is annoying. I got flamed for all of those things. Well it's true I don't give SnK much criticism, as I don't know what to think of it (truly) just yet. I was expecting SAO 2.0, but it seems to be okay so far. 7/10 if I were to rate now. |

katsucats said: Are SnK fanboys making wild excuses to defend aspects of the show that makes no sense? If so, then yes. Otherwise, just wait and see how the show goes. If it starts going to shit at around episode 14, then you have a point. Wait, what? Bro, all fans are the same by the "fan" definition. "An ardent devotee; an enthusiast." SnK fans are enthusiastic for SnK and SAO fans are enthusiastic about SAO. They both share the same characteristics. Art quality is subjective anyway. |

| If you say to a SAO fanboy that the anime is a poor adaptation, you'll get some insults. Is this the case with SNK ones ? Cause they somewhat fucked up the pace of the manga to do some cliffhanger. |

Red_Keys said: mitch3315 said: Popularity = quality for a vast number of people.Popularity =/= quality. And really, that's all that matters. Popularity = quality for me generally. At least for the popular shows. I also greatly enjoy a lot of unpopular shows. If something is popular, there's a good chance I will enjoy it. I'm not saying I'll enjoy it because it's popular, but rather that I tend to share the same opinion as the "mainstream." I don't think there's anything wrong with this, a lot of people obviously like it for a reason. What I think is stupid are the people purposely disliking / hating a show simply because it's popular. That's the same kind of conformism, just in a reverse fashion. |
MoeGalacticHero said: Forgetfulness said: People say the first three episodes were amazing. I think that's just them justifying getting caught up in the hype early on. The first episode wasn't awful. It was trash from there. Give credit where it's due. The first episode was amazing. I haven't really watched much of it, with school getting in the way but SnK has one of the strongest ep 1 ever. I think it's stupid how highly rated it is even though it's not even finished though. I can't really say much else since i haven't seen much more of the anime but i hope it doesn't turn out like SAO, where Ep 1 is very strong and everything else is the characters dicking around. |

| If it's to the liking of the majority it isn't quality. But it's success. By logic what the mass thinks it's not necessarily the truth. But if the success lasts so will the show, so why does it matter if in the opinion of 2 people out of 100 it is shit? In the end, their opinion, especially if it's on MAL, doesn't matter, the sales will still be there and the show will get it's second/third/fourth etc season. And as art is subjective, you could actually say that popularity = quality. Why? Because appeal to majority talks about an argument. How can you argue tastes? Well, you can't... Why? Because it can't end and they don't have any "truth" in it. |

| Looks like I missed the fun... Oh well, I'm going to post my god honest opinion. I don't think SNK fanboys (I really haven't seen that many TBH) are the next generation of SAO fanboys. For one thing SAO fanboys were defending the indefensible. SAO had ass pull after insanely ridiculous ass pull and yet the fanboys kept praising and defending it in a very annoying way. I just began to read the SNK manga but I'm going to make sure to always stay behind the anime so I don't get spoiled.... The point is, I don't know what's going to happen, but IF SNK does something like SAO did at around the middle of the series (you all know what I'm talking about) and SNK "Fanboys" act the same way as SAO fanboys....then yeah, they are the next generation. |
| I don't think so. I don't see what the problem is with a large group of people loving a certain anime. If they like it, they like it. The odds are that people's hateful opinions on the show are not going to change that. I'm not saying I'm a "fanboy" of SnK, but I would rather be a fanboy than be someone who is upset that the show is so popular. Don't try to flame others and try to force your opinion down their throat just because you are in the minority. |

| The logic popularity=quality is like basing your opinion on what 10 idiots say without reason or explaining and you dont trust the bright one that actually explain why and gives reason. If an anime caught your eye watch it dont base your search on popularity..... Some people really trust the mass opinions and not question the reasons... |

| I don't think that you get what he said... It's not like if something is popular he'll just watch and say "Oh, it's the best shit ever only because it's popular.", obviously he'll judge it by his own experience and tastes, he said "vast majority" not "everyone". Even if you say it's "quality", "best product" etc, there will always be one that will say "i7 sucks".

Most people look at what's rated the highest and buys that/watches that/etc. Because if it's liked by the majority your chances to like it are higher because yeah... The majority. 80% like Samsung 20% don't, 60% like Apple 40% don't. You'll probably try Samsung first and see if you're part of the 20% or not, then maybe Apple depending on what you did with Samsung. |

| "Popularity = quality for a vast number of people." If I were to chime in, popularity means it's well known, famously or infamously. The people that make it popular consist of fans and 'haters', and does not imply it has "quality" to those people. Neon Genesis Evangelion being a prime example. |

| What I'm saying is that things are only popular because people like them. Nobody likes something because it is popular. That doesn't fucking happen. If nobody likes something, it will not become popular (in a good way). |

| I'm just going to leave this here. |

If nobody likes something, it will not become popular (in a good way). That's what I figured you meant, but I wasn't sure. Still would have to disagree with the notion popularity=quality as an absolute, there are a lot of external influences that affect it to, demographic, marketing/exposure, and etc. |

SAO sold a shitload, SnK still sells a shitload. Or at least that's what I mean by success, nobody buys something that "sucks". |
