Well, is there a way other than behaving like a fanatic who always says "your taste is shit" to become an elitist ? Are there another ways to become one ?

Discuss, please.
This world is awful and merciless.

Well, the well known way to become an elitist is to bash anyone that disagrees with you.
Elitists in general are the ones who have superiority complex and beleive that their taste is superrior.

But the MAL way is different :

1- you should hate most of those high rated and heavily loved shows in the MAL top.

2- you should give low scores to anime and your mean score should be lower than 6.

3- you should watch and like the 2256deep256me shows.


And congrats, you're an elitist now.
At least in a site like MAL.

Have these as your favourites. If you watch any and don't consider them to be top 10 worthy then you're just an ordinary pleb, but you can still pretend they're your favourites if it makes you feel better about yourself.

Easy, name all the franchise that people worshipped as masterpiece and tell them how over-rated and shitty they all are and give them a 1, and only your taste on x anime (either from an old anime franchise or from a show no-one talks about) is the only good anime.

Euh yes ! There is a difference.

Edgelords are the ones who don't even have a taste, they have lower mean scores than elitists and most of them don't like any show and aren't even anime fans (in general)

- Have to hate shows like: SAO, Re:Zero and Erased

- Have to like shows like: Baccano and Steins;Gate

- Have to have a mean score of 0.1/10 and then claim "I don't hate anime, my tastes are just different"

- Cannot like ecchi or harems at all Bonus if you call them boring and cliche

- Claim that every comedy anime in existence is 'repetitive' and 'uncomical'

- Have to have re-watched every single anime

That's way too casual.

Do you know how many Japanese ONLY care about the 2D idol and not the anime in general?
Those are not even anime fans, they're like Idol worshipers.

Proof is Love Live is one of the biggest selling franchise in Japan , and occupied most of the 4th~10th place in the top 100 anime of all time voted by Japanese.

http://www.nhk.or.jp/anime/anime100/ani_report/

Love Live fan is far from being Elitest cuz they're part of the big group of normies.

ฤฐ tend to be picky but i think people can watch idol animes to just because link them with their doujinshi hobbies

Kappa

Quick edit so nobody does call me pedophile: When i go to a hentai website %70 of the things are literally related with animes that don't have anything with hentai/ecchi stuff, but when it does it is visibly better than average, just a doujinshi love

My point is, the point of being elitist is to prove that you're superior, and can't be the same as all the "commoner with shit taste".

So how could an elitist like something as trendy as Love Live?
It's literally the Jesus of anime in Japan with way more fans than any other anime.

It just depends on their stance, precisely. They might think Idol anime is the best one there is, and be backed up by its popularity :)

Digibro is considered by many to be an elitist, yet his favorite anime is K-On!! He still watches a ton of really old/obscure anime and has a really low average MAL score. It's not exactly the same thing, but still, elitists can come in all kinds.

Pretty sure when people referring someone as elitist, they're referring them as ass already.

So elitist = ass to non elitist.

The first part is right but:

3. Get 2-3 more elitist anime under your belt, so if you meet an elitist you can point out more than one show, just for comparison. (Good candidates: Madoka , Ergo proxy, NGE, Shinsekai yori, Kara no Kyoukai, Guost in the Shell)
