We know he has a history of putting down most shows as they don't simply fulfill his expectations in terms of quality. He does have some valid arguments here and there but most of the time he's talking straight out of his ass.

Uses bias way too much to control his "valid" arguments. It's unhealthy crusader-like behavior if anything.

He's not objective as much as he thinks he is regarding his criticisms, but he at least debates good enough without using too much bias.

I didn't watch that anime so I don't really care, but from what I do know about it from info I gathered I can tell it's not the type of show for me.

'Hater' is a derogatory term, so I don't think you can apply it to someone who has no ill intention. If someone gives something a low score and is capable of explaining why, BUT doesn't feel the need to incessantly tell others how bad/overrated it is whenever he/she can, then it is not a 'hater' TripleSRank is thus not a hater.

This is not the first time he's demodded you. He's probably going to be busy for a few weeks or months and so sensed that he could not carry out his functions normally.

For me, the worst haterbases are the ones who hate on genres/demographics/appearances as a whole (mecha, shounen, shoujo, moe, etc.).

Yeah, those are very toxic people. There's nothing wrong with wishing that the anime industry focused on something other than [insert genre], but there's no need to be a d-bag about something that just isn't your thing.

If I recall correctly, "a good show is good regardless of your personal taste" is exactly what you were arguing, and repeating it again isn't an argument.

No. I was answering what you said, that you decide if a show is good or not based on your criteria, and I said that's false, you may LIKE a show becouse of your TASTE or criteria. But what makes a good show is not your criteria, is good writting and plot. A show with bad writting an plot is a bad show, thas's not subjective, is a fact.
AttackOnTetris said:
Now you're adding another layer to your subjectivity by saying "well written means it's coherent". Well-written can mean many things and is completely subjective, and you have subjectively decided coherence is a criteria needed for well-written characters. I could counter-argue that it's possible to make a character who's incoherence actually furthers the story by adding an air of mystery. Think of the proxies in Ergo Proxy. I think what you mean is "non-contradictory" which is a good start, but it's possible to make a very static character who undergoes no development, and they will satisfy that criteria.

So, I not shure about what you are saying here (i'm not english speaker)so I wonder if you could answer this insted to try to understand your point of view: If it is subjective, what makes for you a well written character?


If it's objective, what are the markers of a well-written plot we can't argue against?

No, it's not. You are talking about taste, you can apply that to genres, settings, etc. A show is good when the story and characters are well written, presented developted and executed.

Your "objective" system is subjective in 2 areas.

The first one being: what it takes for the show to be good. You made your own, personal criteria of what makes a good show.

The second one being: everyone will have different opinions with regards to what makes well-written character, as well as good development and execution.

It would make more sense to just drop the charade of pretending like you are talking about "objective quality".


Well said, but I'd refine what you said and argue that there is, at least, the pursuit of objectivity that comes in the form of well-reasoned views on any particular anime based on interpretations of its presentation, plot and characters.
Nothing like, "oh, it was enjoyable so it deserves 10/10" (SAO fanboys) or "I hated the characters. Instant 1/10" (Evangelion haters in a nutshell).
It's not about being 100% objective that's the issue here; really, it's about being MORE objective than the other person. When you have someone who is only 1% objective and you're 2%, then I'd say that you're opinion would be a whole lot more credible even if it's just that extra one percent.

Definitely Fate/Stay Night : Unlimited Blade Works

Forgetfulness said:
Personally I think a lot of the criticism I've read about UBW is ignorant and incredibly nitpicky about the fact that the show is "Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works" and not "Fate/One: The True Sequel to F/Z". Or on the other hand, there are also the super purists that think every little change was terrible and it was absolute trash compared to the source material.

But that's just me.

That's not only this. Charlotte was already hated even before the first episode aired. And the more it becomes popular, the more it becomes hated, weeks after weeks. And we're just half way through the series. I don't want to imagine when it'll be completed.

Well most Key haters can give reasonable explanations for their hatred and directly reference things from Key's anime to support their view that Key makes really shallow and appallingly stupid melodrama.

I am guessing you have not watched episode 7 of Charlotte. KEY anime is notorious for bad characterization, excessive melodrama and forced plot for the sake of tearjerking the audience. It may work on some people but it gets insulting when I am "supposed" to cry or have feels for a character that is either barely on screen or can be summed up in a single sentence.

I guess so, but the show and the values it spreads are toxic as well so it balances itself out in that case. But Shigatsu is an exception since it is so exceptionally offensive :>.
Hating for moral reasons is fine in my book (like people hating on Mahouka because it is racist etc...), unlike hating something just because you don't like it and others do, or worse, because you 'don't like the fans' or any of the other retarded reasons why people hate stuff on MAL.

Saying that it's too silly because of the sheer amount of fanservice put into it is hardly anything but an opinion, and I don't think it's a stupid opinion either. Different strokes for different folks.

shush.
I won't deny that there is an argument that even hating for moral reasons is retarded since it's fiction and stuff and at the end of the day harmless (which is debatable in itself since fiction has been used for RL propaganda for ages), but IF there is any valid reason for hating on something, it's because it spreads bad values and not because one of the fans offended you on youtube once or because it's rated higher than your favorite anime.

Well yes, disliking a show for moral reasons as you say is more legit than the retarded stuff like cause it's rated higher than my fav animu, but cmon, perceiving a show as spreading bad, toxic values is subjective ( at least in this case, I mean, it's not a show about Hitler ideals ) and just another form of disliking a show, which as you say is toxic and not really justifiable.

What is wrong with disliking a show because it conflicts with moral values? So if I disliked a hentai because it glamorizes rape and that conflicts with my own morality, that is toxic?

Shigatsu's depiction of those who went through trauma is offensive and as a person who I has lived through similar experiences, I find that show reprehensible.
