| I have a favour (Tanomi ga aru) This is what comes to my mind. |
| a really troublesome girl just showed up at a troubling time to start some trouble. |
Well, a few of those:
|
 |
| The phrase I hate the most is 'Thank you for your hard work', its something like oskare sama des in Japanese, they say this to every person they meet in business world like in party or in the office I mean just say Hello it's so annoying listening to the same phrases 10 to 20 times in each episode. |
  |
| do you really okay with this? everydamn time when the mc settle with his decision these words come out,, |
| "-Why do you do that ? -Because I love him/her/you." At first I found it kinda cute, but it very quickly became annoying. There are still exemples in which the characters' relationship is so well done this line remains touching and meaningful, but it is very often used only to give a dull explanation for the character to sacrifice themself for someone they barely know. And the tone, mixed with the generic piano music, mixed with the generic facial expressions, just makes me want to slam my face on my screen instead of crying over how "kawaiiiii" that is. |
 |
| You know it: "This is my fight!" "No, Senpai, this is OUR fight!!" -Strike the Blood. I actually wouldn't have it any other way, it's basically a staple now XD Still cliche and (slightly) annoying though. |
| Anything that includes the power of friendship and/or love. |
rsc-pl said: Nothing? RudeRedis said: [*] The use of senpai (先輩) and (less frequent though) kouhai (後輩). There's nothing wrong with it, but just calling a person "elder" or "younger" is kinda weird to me. Senpai/kouhai doesn't mean elder/younger though. At all. You can have a senpai who is 10 years younger than you and vice versa with kouhai. It's more like experience-based honorific. OK, didn't know about that, thanks for the info! |
|
| "There's only one in a million chance that you'll survive" -Then mc survives with ease. When Itadori eats the finger, it's the perfect example for this. |

| Not exactly a phrase, but...I've come to hate the squeaky sound all adult characters make when they take their first sip of beer in the day. Look, I get it, the first sip is extra good and refreshing and whatnot. But it's become SUCH a cliché to show 'this is a hardworking adult' and I just kinda hate it? We can be adults without drinking. We can enjoy a drink quietly without moaning through the whole room. Please stop making that noise! x.x |
| “If you don't do as I say I will kill her/him” “If you hurt her/him, I swear I'll kill you” Because eventually, a relative of the main character is kidnapped and used as a hostage (Mostly end of the season) |
This is Nanba Prison. No one has ever escaped successfully from this prison. -Nanbaka |
| Instead of killing the protagonist after torture him in a fight, you interrogate him again knowing he didn't know everything and then get deus ex machina'ed TATAKAE!!! "Le screaming stuff" |
 |
SuicideMaster said: Honestly, this thread itself is more cringe than all of these phrases combined. Huh any reason for that? Seems to me like people are just listing bunch of cliched phrases. Or am I missing something here? |

| "no senpai this is our fight" from strike the blood |
| Don't mind me, putting it on a spoiler tab... |
 |
| with the power of friendship!! that is just another word for plot armor |
 |
| when someone offers a drink/cigarettes/sexual favors to some guy but the guy goes: "I'm underage", that's very annoying and unproductive |
    |
| "Damn it! What should I do now" This one. |
 |
| I'll never forgive you! *Proceeds to defeat the deuteragonist and instead of killing him use some cringy lines like family or friendship to get him to repent of his ways and join the protagonist group* |
| "I am just an average high school student". Then proceeds to be everything but the average high school student. |
 |
| "i'll record this memory in the notebook of my heart" it's a nice sentiment but it sounds really awkward in english lmao. also "it's a promise" < i only ever hear anime characters use that phrase |
SuicideMaster said: Preachee said: Huh any reason for that? Seems to me like people are just listing bunch of cliched phrases. Or am I missing something here? I feel like most of the phrases here are only cringe when you make them out to be so. They just feel like normal phrases when I hear them in anime. Yeah I kinda realized this some time after posting. I guess the phrases in itself aren't really bad, but the delivery isn't realistic enough (for obvious reasons, anime isn't live action after all) and it's somehow always exactly the same. For instance, the "Damn it! What should I do now" right above is a completely normal line that just about anyone would utter in their most average day. But when you apply it to anime, it does seem more corny than usual, because you can already imagine the exact same over-the-top delivery from dozens of different characters saying it in the exact similar manner. So I guess in a way, it might seem like a cliche to some people. |

| "Ore ga mamoru!" Said by generic shonen protag moments before getting beaten badly then suddenly getting a random powerup to save the day because, mUh loved one needs to be protected "I'll let you go for now/I won't kill you until you're actually strong enough to kill me instead" Asuka's "anta baka???" can be annoying too. "EEEEHHHHHHHH?" or "oi oi oi" (I'm dying of cringe just typing these two, the worst in my opinion) |
