For the love of god, save me from the circle-jerk that is /r/Anime

I'm going to start posting on here because the community of /r/Anime is abysmal.

Like most of reddit, everyone is hyper sensitive. Don't you fucking dare say one negative thing about the anime "community" being retarded, or you will be lambasted by neckbeards until your computer overheats.

Saying one negative thing about a popular series is a posting death sentence there, as it's all one great big circle jerk of everyone agreeing with each other on everything and ass slapping.

Worst of all, they almost all have what I refer to as "nerd arrogance", where they are extremely elitist about what shows are good to "true anime fans". It's kind of like a guy legitimately talking down to someone like they are inferior to them as a person since they are better at Magic The Gathering.

I hope that this is a better place, where I can bitch about things and not drown in the tears of teenage SJW snowflake crybabies.

You thought /r/Anime was bad?Try Anime Discussion here, it's that subreddit times five when it comes to sensitive little flowers.

Hmmm the only place where they'll jump at you is in episode discussions or simply ignore you (depending on the show) but yeah welcome to mal.



Since there is no upvote/downvote system it's harder for a circle jerk (there are still circle jerks)

it helps to not watch anime alot, that way you have nothing to discuss. also just watch anime you like, that way there's a chance it won't be popular with the current community, and again, you will have nothing to discuss.

Well, i'm in my twenties and just got into anime this year, so I basically watch a lot of older stuff and not currently airing / recently aired shows.

Unfortunately, this means I really like a series and want to discuss it, only to have people not give a shit. Sort of like when I watched GTO recently.

Lol, they're still circlejerking it there, huh? Don't worry, the anti-circlejerk will come once current airing anime are finished. I suggest you check the non-current airing anime threads on there if you want less circlejerk, but do what you want and write them off.

Actually you should consider joining their anti-circlejerk there once it comes to fruition after this season is over.
