Not my type of funny to see a girl get pushed around into wearing revealing outfits out of her consent. :(

No, you clearly like random idol events for no good reason.

I hope you're being sarcastic...the only stand out episodes of that series were the shadow ep (ep 3 I think) and the last ep bar the very end.

I'm not being sarcastic. I didn't like mostly every episode. The second stand out moment was the fireworks scene and...maybe Hiroomi's scarf fanservice in the special eps. :')

Well considering everything about the series I liked you didn't like and vice versa, there's not much reason to keep talking about it xD Clearly we didn't watch it for the same reason...either way it's not a good show, I guess we can probably agree on that.

I love how your profile pic and your banner show Mirai while you're only liking the one episode of Kyoukai no Kanata that was (awesome, but) kind of random and completely unnecessary

When I watched K-On! and Haruhi the only thing I was wondering is what kind of people these shows appealed to.

From K-On!: "Azusa-chan, you're so cute! Say meow!"

From Haruhi: "I've got pictures of your sexual harassment. If you don't want me to spread them around the school..."

Lol.
Like really ngga, this is the reason why the term "lowest common denominator" is thrown around so much on the internet.

I watched the show because I thought it would be like Shinsekai Yori, which is the best dark fantasy anime ever :> Too bad there was too many glasses fetish jokes and moe moments which ruined the dark atmosphere they tried getting.

See that's why I watched it - which is why I found all the moe bits horrible and didn't like them, but I guess I don't have a high tolerance for that kind of thing. I found the parts where the show at least tried to be interesting far better.

Also I do agree that the character design and animation in the series was pretty good, but as I said one of the reasons I dislike Kyoani is because they can never strike a good balance of pretty show and good show imo...aside from Hyouka. To its credit, Chuu2 also benefited greatly from their animation budget in the fantasy scenes and I don't think Free would have been as popular without the quality that was put into it.

I don't see how either of those things have much to do with it being a poor sports anime. A poor ost or unlikable characters can show up in any show, regardless of genre. I thought you were going to talk about how it actually portrayed swimming.

I love it when people dig their own graves.

- Implying there's something strange/wrong with being female.
- Implying liking a few decent titles somehow redeems people from their overall questionable interests.

Not sure who you're trying to convince. Like what you want, even if it's sht.

Just live with the fact that other people have different opinions.

Just saying, some people may say all those shows/movies are shit. Every time you hate on something you are hating on something other people love. Not saying to stop bad mouthing stuff (although you should probably give new anime a chance) but just that you should think about the repercussions of your words. Or just say stuff is complete shit (like SAO) and have fun doing it

You don't have to like a sport to enjoy a sports anime.

By the way, I hate basketball but Kuroko no Basuke made it interesting.
