ktg said: CornflakeSnow said: it's pretty generic tbh. like it's really good but it definitely has flaws. like there are plenty of other shows which are far superior. Also you've watched barely any anime (neither have I). You need to watch more so you can develop that taste. That's the problem actually. It's far from generic, but someone said it's generic and now everyone calls it generic. If you watch for example the top 100 shounen, the generic main character is more like Naruto, Luffy or Eren (in the beginning). The generic main shounen character has big goal, a selfish goal. He could choose not to do that but he tries anyway. Becoming a Hokage, becoming the Pirate King or killing every titans. While it's pretty much the opposite in KnY or in most of the new type of shounen MCs. They are selfless. They just want a peaceful life and a happy world. The same is true for the new gen shounens like JJK or KnY. Yes, the shounen characteristics are shifting but KnY is far from generic. One of the most generic shounen is tha SnK S1 first half. Isayama created the start generic on purpose. It is the most generic, very little personality and everything you just listed about what other characters do can literally be said for Tanjiro his dream is restoring his sister back to human and he kills demons, how is that not generic. |

| How are there people who do like Demon Slayer? Thats wat's more surprising actually. |
| I mean we all have our likes and dislikes lol not much to understand A more serious answer, In my opinion it's just meh. Animation is gorgeous no doubt but other than that what does it have? It's another shonen with a very VERY pretty paint job |
| Watch more Anime. You'll get how generic this is. |

Then you don't what generic means. Tanjiro's personality is pretty new, compared to the other named characters. Your argument is not really valid. I said not forced into the situations. Tanjiro has no choice while Eren could live inside the walls. Luffy could be an average person and Naruto could be an average ninja or even could choose another job. If Tanjiro haven't chose this path, her sister would have been dead. And he's not killing demons, he's protecting humans. If you want to compare it, for example, to Eren, then you can see how Eren killed titans without hesitation in the beginning, because he considered every titans as enemies. But in the end of S3 Eren personality is pretty close to Tanjiro's, because at that point he actually let titans live when they couldn't walk. As for the personality, check out the top 50 shounen, if you can't find many shows with this "generic" personality then you are lying. The thing is, this really good person type is pretty new as a main character. In most of the cases they have some selfish desire. While this new type is more selfless. Check Itadori out, he doesn't considered to be generic, while they have pretty similar personalities. So at least try to point out some valid arguments, because you just clearly didn't understand what I said. Okay his personality is not pretty new its bog slandered with nothing unique and just hollow with typical shounen troupes. Your point about about him having no choice is just wrong, he chose to protect her he is not forced to by anyone its something he chose to protect like eren who chose to go out of the walls to try protect everyone by getting rid of titans. "The thing is, this really good person type is pretty new as a main character" Nope my hero came out before demon slayer and the protags basically have the same ideals you were saying about selfless and help others deku wanting to be a hero to protect everyone would be selfless then. This is the first time I have also seen someone say Itadori is not considered generic, he is a cool character and I like him but he is not unique for example a hybrid with sukuna can be compared to a titan shifter like eren, typical high school character with a mentor gojo like Kakashi. He has nothing unique to him that is new or innovative. |

He has nothing unique to him that is new or innovative. Denial is not a refutation. He has no choice, if he wants to preserve his life, because otherwise he would lose someone else. While in the other characters' cases, they choose not to preserve and change their lives. Deku is a bad example. He's more like a hybrid of the two types. He's not forced and he's not doing to help people, just to be hero. Which is different from the others. And btw, naming other 1 or 2 characters means nothing. We are talking about generic type, which means you should a thousand at least, but you can't. That's interesting, because people doesn't call Itadori generic usually. Because in that case they recognize it as a new(er) type. Because the generic type is more like Luffy, Naruto, Eren (S1), even Son Goku. Yes, this type is more than 50 years old, while this type is only a couple years old. That's why it far from generic. Eren had always wanted to go and fight titans but what was the main reason that pushed it was the titans breaking the wall and killing his mother which could be considered generic in s1 but after wards he starts to branch out of the typical generic personality And with tanjiro being selfless I kinda want to argue that with this, I would say tanjiro is one of the most selfish on the list of characters you mentioned, yes its to save his sister but he is defying the demon slayers by not executing a demon. The reason he begun to be a demon slayer is selfish in my eyes he had no interest in it and became one that stemmed out of personal gain yes its a fair reason but if the other characters you listed are selfish for just wanting to achieve a dream then so should tanjiros dream as the only reason he has a chance to do it is since giyu for no reason in the moment had mercy. Deku is the most selfless as it stemmed from just wanting to help people for no personal gain. "He's not forced and he's not doing to help people, just to be hero." What exactly is a hero? When I watched it, it did not seem like he wanted personal gain he just wanted to save people because he admired allmight. |

VaggPe said: XxD8M0N_S1AY8RxX said: I know but all those people just seemed like haters without reasons that's because you don't want to accept their arguments Thank you. This guy is either a troll or a normie fan who views any criticism, no matter how constructive or reasonable or valid it is, as blind hate because they're completely brainless and are unwilling to understand other people's views and completely ignore Demon Slayer's flaws and think it's a perfect diamond in the world of fiction that cannot be criticized. Demon Slayer's writing and characters are atrocious, it's animation and soundtrack are probably the only remarkable things about it. |

| Maybe because not everyone like's battle shounen? There's so many that barely stand out. |

XxD8M0N_S1AY8RxX said: pri_arts_ said: I know! People really hate because they're haters and it's popularthey should cope with the fact that we are enjoyers and they are suffering from a terminal case of hater Not liking something doesn't automictically mean hating something. I don't remember why I didn't like it (and the fact that I remember almost nothing about this show speaks for itself), but I wouldn't say I hated it, it just was too boring and I had no reason to continue watching anything past the first season. Anyway why do you care if people hate what you like? Be assure that it works the other way too, as some shows that you hate, other people like. So yeah, different people have different tastes, and there is no way that everybody will like or hate the exact same shows. Even the most terrible animes have their fans, and the highest rated shows have people that don't like or hate them. You know, we are people and not machines that were programmed to love or hate shows depending on some artificial parameters. |

| I'm glad I ended up not dropping the series because I like it quite a lot as an anime only watcher. Although, I was close to calling it quits over Zenitsu. His scenes were not funny and dragged on too long. Also this topic went about as expected. People throwing out things like "bad writing" "plot armor" "overrated" "generic". Never explaining or giving examples of anything. Often times I've seen people do the same with One Piece or HxH and it turns they just didn't understand the show or pay attention to details. |

APenny_ForA_Rose said: Yeah I get it,,, for people who arent that smart like us we need something like this to keep us occupiedTbh the story is kinda straightforward, but I’m not the brightest, and I enjoy the simple things so I really enjoy demon slayer! It was the first real anime I had ever seen, I get it if it’s not your cup of tea tho lol. |
V1P3R0P said: XxD8M0N_S1AY8RxX said: I'm just can't understand how someone could hate this series. Is there something I'm missing. yes. A brain to understand people can have different views, tastes and opinions. Some people just want story to be good and will ignore how ever bad an animation is. DS has a lot of plot armors, Power of (family/friends/some random dude in my dreams) concept, which is very annoying. Tanjiro is in a pinch, he dreams about his dad telling him to breathe, and then he defeats a demon. I really find that frustrating. A lot of people want well written character, who don't whine a lot and who are not cowards(Zenitsu) , who are not self overestimators(Inosuke) etc. I really dont care for such characters and in my opinion, I think having such character traits makes them more realistic. A lot other dont appreciate the use of CGI in a 2d anime series. I agree a lot of shows used that and butchered the series, But this is Ufotable we are talking about, and they just made the show 8th wonder of the world. actually, not being whiney and overconfident does make any a well written character, well written characters are always flawed, but they go through character development and become tolerable. which is pretty much non existent as they are just how they were in the starting and in the end. close to 0 character development |

| It's boring and generic so why should I like it? Worst Bleach recycle I have seen so far. |

There are many ways to tackle this question, but let's first examine why you like it in the first place. That shall, I expect, provide some insight into how it is you "can't understand." |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
XxD8M0N_S1AY8RxX said: RioFS said: I know but all those people just seemed like haters without reasonsMaybe read the reviews for a different opinion? That will help you find it. Maybe try to understand the fact that people can like and hate any anime series no matter how good or how bad it is. Also, if reading well-written reviews (not talking about the short, spam-type reviews) you will understand their view. If you can't understand what they mean from even one of the reviews then bruh you are in denial. Not to mention you are quite young and are new to anime so anime like these are surely going to appeal to you more than the older demographic. You'll start to see the flaws after watching a couple hundred anime or when you grow older. |

| yes, you are missing good taste in story and characters. demon slayer is a generic story with 1 dimensional characters that get 0 to no development, plot armor, plot convenient, and terrible comedy, that has no depth, is predictable and lacks proper world building. the production is top notch though, so even with all that, I still think the show is above average. |
