with 1 being the least normie (elitist) and 10 being the most normie
im a solid 2

my values below
i believe most of the popular / trending anime are certainly overrated
i hate dub and sub is way superior
i cannot stand pp memeing on those twitter posts and youtube videos without knowing whats going on ex: normies spamming jojo memes without knowing them
i hate those poorly edited amvs with pop music playing as bgm
and i love to promote quality anime that lacks popularity
btw i do not rate anime

are you a normie or are you an elitist

scale
1 ___3___ 5 __7____ 10
1- hyper elitist
1-3 - elitist
3-5 - assertive anime fan
5 - 7 - casual
7 - 10 - normie

Ah yes, the classic normie vs elitist thread.

I probably will always be somewhere in the middle.

I like most of the highly rated shows on MAL. I'm pretty easy on English dubs but subs are mostly better imo. I watch a lot of shows and have varied tastes so I wouldn't consider myself as an animu normie! 2/10

I hate dub because it felt a bit disrespectful
i know its just me but I feel the original voice actors and actresses
are essentially the casts of the anime
their voice represent their effort and reflect theit skill
they work directly under the director which is original
replacing their voice basically deny their skill and effort

Because I just watch anime like a footbal game, when it's over I discuss it a bit then turn to the next one. I don't have anything against dubs or memes.

No clear number, but definitely leaning towards the lower end.

I feel like a better way of rating normie is based on your average rating score. Someone with an average score of 8 or 9 def feel like a normie to me while someone with an average score of 7 ish feels more like the middle ground and people with sub 5 average score would def be elitist.

good for you
it just makes me cringe to see people wrongly use memes without knowing their originals
there are people posting anime memes with excessive spelling errors with wrong usage and there are some giving these likes and upvotes

good idea I never thought of it
but what if they only watch the supposedly good ones or bad ones
Ive seen pp with average around 3 but they did watch all the terrible ones which are
barely heard of by most anime fans
I used to have a average rating of 8 but I did carefully sorted out what I really enjoy watching

lol your post seems more of that of an "elitist" than a "normie" i'm more of a normie, I'll watch dub or sub, i'm more or less open minded when it comes to anime and nor do I critique a show based of off super biased and and nit picky conclusions/reasoning. One thing I cannot stand are the "anime fans" that only watch popular, shounen, or shitty slice of life shit. I also promote quality anime that lacks popularity.

I watch anime from time to time depending on when I feel like it. I used to think that counted as being "weeb" but then I visited the anime club at my university.

The people there knew like every show by heart along with director/studio/date aired to the point where it was actually mind boggling.

Personally though I find AMVs or anything related to anime but mixed in with some sort of western media to be cringe worthy. I can't really get into anime music at all either (with some exceptions).

yes I am an elitist but a pretty weird one
"anime fans" that only watch popular, shounen, or shitty slice of life shit as I quoted from you are normies of the normies probably a solid 9 or 10
youre probably the first I know to consider slice of life shitty since
this genre doesnt receive much hate

I do find some anime osts amazing I have nothing against the original music and songs
but using those rock music or love songs in amvs I dont know want to say

an elitists hybrid huh? should I call animal control... or...?

well idk what I'd consider myself, I guess a mutt half breed.

well tbh i fell like you've seen one slice of life you've seen them all. It's either a feelsgood or feelsbad show. I might be generalizing a bit tho.

Some of them are overrated to me too, but I also think some others are underrated.

Not all dubs are bad, a lot of them are pretty good, and most of the time I'll prefer the dub, especially for popular shows.

I guess I'm an elitist then. Although, this is more like being a realist.

But my mean score is 5.21 and I am not an elitist at all. I watch complete garbage like Island (so moronic that entertains me) and even worst just that I dont score them high.

I think all dubs sound like shit and won't watch them.
I archive anime.
I fansub.
I think people who stream are plebs.
I like honorifics in my subs, but equally won't have an autistic meltdown if they aren't present.
People who like/use western name order for Japanese/Asian characters have an extra chromosome or three.
One of the spare rooms in my house is my dedicated anime room.

However, I also socialise, work full time, and lead a pretty normal life in general, so I'm not a full blown degenerate anime fan (yet).

Dub haters are automatic elitists, bc a normie wouldn't care if other people's preferences align with theirs, much alone hating other people's personal preferences.
What a bunch of idiots we've got here, who cannot understand such basic terminology. Geez.

tl;dr: My likes> Your likes = elitism
