What scenes or dialogue made you cringe the most? Preferably it should be some speech or fight or scene that was supposed to be serious but ended up being cringy, so things like certain comedy scenes or Watamote where you are meant to cringe don't count.


What's the difference?

I don't think I've ever "cringed" before.

I'd probably cringe at those people who say cringe at literally everything though.

Other than those genius lines I think every line with the word baka in it is a pure cringe.

Since it's like shooting fish in a barrel to showcase moments of cringe in bad anime or in anime I dislike, I'll name the "comedy" in FMAB.

Every Engrish line uttered ever. It's the worst/best when it's said in a serious tone in a serious situation. Fucking hilarious.

EDIT: Also every fucking time MC's girlfriend asks "Are you really Shinichi-kun?" in Parasyte -the maxim-. I don't remember her being that annoying in the manga, so it was probably Madhouse ruining her character in the adaptation.

"Time paradogs" from Jinrui, but it was perfect, glorious cringe.
TEN COMMANDMENTS:
1) If Evangelion and Psycho-Pass are his only 10s, he probably also worships Tool and smells like cheesy puffs 2) Freudian psychosis =/= good writing 3) Moe blob art style is only ok in pure slice-of-life comedy 4) It's ok to enjoy shounen. Having fun is allowed 5) It is not ok to enjoy isekai (jk, it is, I just fucking hate it) 6) Creator breakdown =/= good writing 7) A story does not have to be wrapped up with a bow. Life is messy, why would a good story need to be tidy? 8) InuYasha is proto-Twilight 9) Ecchi CAN be good, but is almost always an abomination 10) If God is real, They allowed Super Kid to happen, so fuck Them

Both make sense. Also, Rin was mocking Archer when she said the second line. He even asks her whether she's mocking him right after she says that.

"People die when they're killed" was too literal. That was a horrible way to translate the original, even though that's exactly what it is.

I feel the nuance is closer to "when people are killed, they're gone (that's it for them)". Or perhaps even "when you kill someone, this person is gone". I can't put my finger on it, but the original somehow doesn't sound stupid to me. But yeah, the literal translation just doesn't cut it.

If we talk about something who is not supposed to be cringy but ends up being cringy, then the friendship speechs from Fairy Tail comes to my mind the first. They were alright at first, but by the time you hear Natsu scream from the top of his lungs "Ore ga Feari Teiru no Madoshi!!!!!!!!!!!!" for the 10000th time while he one-shots an enemy, it get's ridiculous.
