Your statement is objectively wrong I've actually seen it, and I think that entire concept of 'darker mahou shojo'is nothing really special. I wasn't amazed by the series nor I liked it more because of that darker tone. I'm trying to say that if you take that blood out you literally have just a regular mahou shojo and nothing more. Madoka wasn't even the first destruction of that particular genre so I have no idea why people look at it as something new. yeah and what i am saying is that this statement is objectively not true . if you take the blood out you still have everything else that is the deconstruction disliking something is whatever but the statement that this is just a mahou shoujo story with blood is objectively wrong XD the themes are objectively not typical mahou shoujo stuff the plotlines litteraly every main character is not what normal mahou shoujo storys are about . Typical Mahou Shoujo storys do not develop on classic greek tragedy or Goethes faust. if you think the only think that is different is the blood then you are heavily missing the point from like 0:40 forward that dude makes a pretty good video about why this ( and urobuchis storys in general) are not dark because of bloodshed . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcb9S_fw_BM&t=40s |

I still watched the entire thing with Saitama's OK face. |
dertasso said: NamikazeHime said: There is a bunch of them but the most 'controversial' one is probably Madoka Magica. Spilling the blood on some lolis doesn't make it a groundbreaking masterpiece. You again? I already told you that Madoka is about depression, despair and hope a week ago. This guy already showed you an analysis, but you're like:nah Shouldn't I be the one who says 'you again'? And I'm gonna say it again - depression, despair and hope are the themes of like 80% of anime series. I don't see how that will make it any more interesting. Anyway, if you enjoyed it, good for you. To me, it was average. Tastes are different, and that's the beauty of them. |
| Highly rated anime I do not get into and enjoy? Well, half of MAL's top 100. Even a user with a broad taste will always have genres and individual shows they disagree about with the majority opinion. Anything else would be a sign that a user hasn't a fully developed taste herself, wouldn't it? |

nanimeanswhat said: It's targeted towards horny teens who wish they would get sexually harassed by hot 18 year olds. And to to edgy teens who see growing up as random and disturbing.FLCL. Just wtf was that? Two most annoying girls ever are sexually harassing an elementary school kid while random and disturbing shit's happening here and there. That's it. That's the anime. -Ryu said: People mainly like Erased for the socioligical aspects, which are pretty well done imo. Not so for the plot, which was pretty meh I admit.I seriously have no idea why Erased is/was so highly rated, it's not particularly good at anything it tries to do. Shirayukin said: Many sidecharacters get a lot of screentime in S2. After S2 you could potentially say that the show has a pretty good cast. But yea it takes some time, especially if you don't like the mc.Oregairu and Natsume Yuujinchou. I couldn't even finish them. Oregairu I tried to watch twice but couldn't get past episode 4 every time, I did not like the characters enough to continue and see what's so special about it. mosaicboy said: It makes situations in our ordinary life look epic, and that's just what some people need. Also it's random like ordinary life is and that fits.Nichijou is the most unfunny thing I've ever seen. I genuinely do not understand people who find that show funny. potatosaregreat said: Kamina is liked because sometimes we need motivation which is obviously bs, but we don't care. Any motivation is good, and bs motivation is just easier to come up with.Madoka Magica- boring. didn't get how people thought it was just so mind blowing. The plot twist barely even fazed me. Gurren Lagann- boring. cringey. annoying characters. Also don't get why people like Kamina so much, his speeches were pretty random and was just like he was talking nonsense. Clannad Afterstory- don't see how this was so emotionally impactful for so many people. Clannad is impactful to young adults want to learn what's actually important in life and also see themselves in the kinda stupid mc (like me lol). AshPikaKetchum said: Mob is actually less childish than most side characters a.e. because he doesn't want to fight. That's the point with Mobi Wan. He doesn't need that specific character development that you would expect because he already has the moral high ground (heh). The show is a lot about how the other characters deal with him.in the end of season 2 he still had trouble with his emotions and in general mob is childish and boring, he ins't suitable to be a main character. NamikazeHime said: You did look like you didn't quite got some of the stuff, so I wanted to clear it up. So here we go again. Dealing with depression, despair and hope are the main topics of the show and they take it serious, which is not often the case. Let's take depression. It says how can depression emerge, how does it affect you and the ones around you. The video touches this topic, but it misses the whole adulthood vs maturity stuff, which is in fact the main theme. The main girls get thrown into adulthood by becoming magical girls, but need to gain maturity in order to survive (edgy I know). They get confronted with despair, need to avoid depression and need to hold onto hope. That is the actual drill of the show in 2 sentences.Shouldn't I be the one who says 'you again'? And I'm gonna say it again - depression, despair and hope are the themes of like 80% of anime series. I don't see how that will make it any more interesting. Anyway, if you enjoyed it, good for you. To me, it was average. Tastes are different, and that's the beauty of them. Ofc you won't like it, no matter how many analysis videos you see. But now you know that it's not just about killing lolis and shit. I really hope this makes sense. |

| FMAB and MHA. FMAB I still might pick up again, but after watching MHA till Season 4, it seems like a bad gacha adaptation. Too many character who are forgettable. If it was based on game, I would have more time to spend with the characters, but it's not like that. FMAB was boring for the initial few episodes I watched. I wonder how so many people have completed it. Maybe I'll like it if I ever finish it, but at this point, it's probably going to disappoint me. |
 |
| That would have to be Code Geass, Death Parade, and Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice). |
 |
| It's complicated because it seems I don't have any that I didn't enjoy. If there is the one that I barely couldn't get into, it has to be Steins; Gate. |
| Kimetsu no Yaiba is pure garbage and a 1/10, I feel offended by how badly written and stupid this series is, beatiful art and animation is not everything. Also I dropped Attack on Titan halfway through season 1, I don't know what's that appealing about it. |
| KonoSuba Maybe I don't have a sense of humor that this show caters to... |

| Your lie in April >___< and Kimi No na Wa >_< I felt nothing... I also have mixed feelings about Oregairu 3rd season as well, I liked the 1st season because it was sardonic and silly lol |
| Most highly rated anime are low brow garbage so I'd say about 80% to 90% of them. |

| Made In Abyss even after 3 eps I couldn't find this shit worth watching. I just don't think it's worth watching the rest of the anime for the shocker ending. Dropped it and gave it a 6 because it did a lot a right but the plot just boring. |

( and i can totally see why and how you would disagree with me on that one) i believe in the objective Quality of things for example . >your name < is a better story then "tom goes to the store and buys poop" i think/ assume/hope ( i really hope ) we agree on that however we do have different biases and preferences. we look through different colored glass essentially . so while we might be able to determine on a number of factors that your name is the better story we are propably not going to come to a 100% understanding . i loved kimi no na wa but once i noticed the plotholes they really started bugging me . i dont think its plausable that taki spend so much time in mitsuhas body without noticing that they are 3 years appart even thou he uses her phone every day. i think/ assume/hope we agree on that the idea that " kimi no na wa would be a better story if it didnt have the plotholes that it has " its a well established story telling technique to have a plot that isnt contradictory to itself . however . due to our biases we might have different views on how much that even matters the objective truth still exists but we can not quantify it in numbers or anything equivalent because there are a million aspects that go into storytelling its kind of like philosophy |

| Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Loli dying is somehow revolutionary. |
we actually just went over this so if you want to find out that madoka is more then >loli ded< its your lucky day XD edit: though to be fair you cant understand madoka when you drop it at episode 3 XD that is where the deconstruction begins |

I'm gonna try to explain my reasoning behind that statement. Let's see: Naruto is about a boy and a beast that lives in his tummy. One Piece is about pirates that can't swim. Gintama is about Jack off all trades. Katekyo Hitman Reborn is about mafia. Bleach is about a boy who can see ghost. Monster is about a serial killer. Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu is about war that takes place in space. Trigun is about a gunslinger. Ofcourse, we all know that all of these series are so much more than that, but if I wanted to explain them in one sentence, I would probably say something like this. If someone asked me to explain Madoka in one sentence I would say ' it's a mahou shojo with a little bit of blood here and therem with a darker theme.' That's the meaning behind my first statement and I hope this clears it once and for all. I don't really see it as a philosophy. It's a way of thinking that most of us find valid and logical. Arguably, you can find a person who's preferences are leaning towards 'Tom goes to the store and buys poop.' As long there is person who has that kind of preferences, his 'objectively good' and our 'objectively good' are fundamentaly different and you can just debate about one of them being superior to another. |
| I really wanted to get into the Monogatari series but idk, it just wasn't my thing.. I got bored of it in like 4 episodes of the first season. Maybe it gets better idk. Too lazy to get back into it again. |

| Gintama - didn't find it funny Daily Life of Daily Lives of High School Boys - didn't find it funny One Piece - had a gut feeling it would literally never end Mushi-shi - actually finished the first season, but was still kinda dull for my tastes Kimetsu no Yaiba - Good, looked great visually, but some characters annoyed the shit out of me and the plot was something I've seen done a little better in other series. |

There are pretty good arguments for why some techniques in storytelling work out and others dont . Writing is an art form and just as any other art form it can be innovated upon but it can also be analyzed and understood. |

He also wrote song of saya wich is some really scary romance+horror stuff |
| Steins;Gate - the art it worked for Black Rock Shooter, but not here. The story is fine, but I hated the male protagonist. Season 2 was better, but even with the changes, the anime just had an approach to story telling that didn't click with me. Gintama - If only it wasn't a combination of comedy and parody. Sadly it would be sacrilegious of me to watch only the episodes I care about and leave out 3/4 of the anime. Mob Psycho 100 - people say its visuals are a master piece. But what I see is the but ugly characters. The story is interesting, but the comedy/parody portions bring it down to shit. |

| It's not even because it's bad, but probably Oregiaru. I'm most likely gonna try watching it again later (after I watch some other series first), but I watched the first two episode and felt that I didn't truly feel invested in it. Like, I liked what I did watch of it, but it's not my favorite, and I just couldn't really get into it. I don't really know why. Maybe when I resume watching it I'll like it more, but for now I'm putting it on hold. |

Lol, that's kinda funny. Although how was that possible? the official author for madoka is/was Magia Quarted but that is a group consisting of director Akiyuki Shinbou, writer Gen Urobuchi, the original character designer Ume Aoki, and the producer Atsuhiro Iwakami. that wasnt specified at the time the anime started airing thou . so people genuinely didnt know was pretending to be a cute normal story |
| Angel Beats. It was like number nine here on MAL so I was like "That many people can't be wrong, right?" Then I watch it and thought "What, have they never felt emotion before?" Total let down. It wasn't deep or insightful, it's a metaphor for moving on. |
