in kamisama's defense, a lot CGDCT have one-dimensional characters and pointless plotlines, that solely depend on "being cute" to get viewers. There is a lack of solid jokes, and character developement, while the show is fully based around characters, and never mind a decent setting, since they can just pick any nameless town to let the events take place in.

Which, as a critic, I cannot label as a good story, nor good story-telling. However, neither is he saying that you can't enjoy it, as empathic beings humans get a warm feeling from people being happy and cute, and as lonely otaku you feel attracted to cute girls. it's understandable, however kamisama watches shows because he's interested in good characters and world-building, combined with good directing and a good narrative, which CGDCT just doesn't manage most of the time.

So out of his point of view, they are bland and boring.


Now, hold on. I'm not a "lonely otaku" and still like these types of shows. I think there are lonely otaku for every genre or type of anime so I don't see the worth in adding that to be honest.

To add: I get no show is safe from criticism and their stories aren't amazing, but I'd take Yuru Yuri over an anime with an average story anyday.

@Kamisama751 wow really funny how these so called ppl try to defend their shit and try to shut you up isn't it? It's like they cannot accept different opinions.

Really weird how freedom of speech is now also restricting itself.

I do agree with your point about these kinds of shows.
They just don't know that CGDGT shows are just lazily written just like Light novel adaptations although there are exceptions.

>for somebody who tries to put up the front of a shitposter
What are you talking about?


Come on, buddy, you literally did an interview where you spent a decent amount of time talking about a satirical front you put up for the sake of annoying people.


How do you think the MAL community sees you? How do you feel about that?

I think they see me as a complete asshole since I have done/posted many pretty "controversial" things such as about "objective quality", "attack on train-wreck mistakes". If I look back at my posts from a few months ago then I can see myself behaving kind of like an idiot. Therefore, the hate is understandable. Recently I think I have overdone the satire about elitism where I became an elitist myself. So I have gained even more hate from people on MAL.

Of course, there are also a few people who see me differently.

How is your posting satire when you actually are an elitist though? Or are you intentionally nudging because of the stigma around elitism?

It started as satire but I overdid it and became elitistic afterwards. And yes, I did that in the first place because of the community's altitude about elitism. Now I am on a cool-down from it anyway.


Such cooldown phase. Very wow.

kamisama751 said:

>I mean, if you can't handle people getting mad at you, maybe it's not your calling.
Or they take criticism as personal attacks for instance..


kamisama751 said:
Oh wow. Your reasoning is as bland as those kind of shows.


I mean, you'd have to be pretty dense to actually believe that people wouldn't take that sort of thing as an attack. Criticism of an opinion it might actually be, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that people perceive you based on the way you present yourself. And, from what I've seen, this is generally how you present yourself. Purposefully so, as well, which makes seeing you getting this upset kind of delicious, honestly. Especially when you have to stoop to the level of saying "thanks" to people for defending your ridiculous behavior.

So yes, acting like that on a regular basis and then getting this flustered when people start jumping on you is something I'd expect out of the MC from a cringe comedy.

You clearly are naught but a mere heretic.

Spaghetti is just the same old predictable routine. You got your noodles, you got your sauce, you got some meat, sometimes shaped like balls and sometimes ground up, and you got your powder cheese stuff I guess if that's your thing, and maybe you can toss in something extra like herb butter or something

Pizza is filled with endless possibilities for awesomeness - you can have just cheese, you can put some mushrooms on that, you can put some vegetables on it, you can put some of this and some of that, the sky's truly the limit with pizza

some fringe radicals even put pineapples on that shit yo

Poorly written characters transcend moe. Having cute characters doesn't mean the writing is bad, and having bad writing doesn't mean the characters are cute. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a correlation between the two. But then again, moe shows are more designed to be light and fluffy than not, meaning that characterization forgoes the darker parts of a person's personality.

So it seems they just can't get away with just saying the character is cute. They don't give these girls any meat(lol) and just come off as one dimensional characters. It seems to be the easy go to do anything. Motorcycle? Throw cute girls on it. Battles? Throw cute girls on it. Assassins? Throw cute girls who are slightly crazy on it.

People have a ingrained bias for attractive people. its a universal that reflects all facets of life including entertainment. Making the most appealing character possible will evoke the most positive emotions from consumers that will also more likely to rate the product positively even if its worse in every other area besides cute character designs. It does not mean all cute shows are bad, it just means people are going to have a bias in favor of those shows.

I'm about to head into episode 7...and she is just a bitch without knowing it. I never seen a character be os forceful and demanding and then be a lazy sack of shit while the others do all the work.

Love Live has great character designs even if their personalities aren't too well developed. Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is the opposite since the designs are fairly similar to each other and the characters are all unique (they're sort of based on different mental disorders). Moe shorts generally have very generic character designs and not much personality to their characters.

Here's the kicker....I don't hate all the shows and telling me not to watch is deflecting criticism and just trying to censor opinions you don't wanna hear because confirmation bias hype. Now let me make something clear. I don't hate this as a whole. There are some shows that have been able to take cute girls and really work like Azuma No Riddle and Strike Witches. Another that comes to mind is A-channel. I'm sorry high level discussion is not your thing you should avoid threads where I'm actually trying to discuss shit and get people talking.

Oh lord....that doesn't sound fun at all. Btw if you're wondering I think the show is just painfully average with a little bit of confusion since I don't think the writers get what being an idol means and they just want to think being an idol is super fun all the time and you have to conform to whatever the idol business wants. Also I noticed that in the scores. I look forward to watching the second season and the movie. I gotta say the music and voice acting(English dub) have made me put up with this show and not hate it. A lot of my favorite VAs in this dub are really on their game especially Mendez as Nico. I can see why Nico is a show stealer for many people because it seems she actually has bite to her character unlike others. I like her too.:)

They aren't. Railgun, Red Data Girl (wouldn't really recommend), K-On!, Tamako Market, and Hanayamata (haven't seen) are some dubbed moe anime I know of. Girls und Panzer has a dub, but it's recommended that you watch subbed.

They aren't. Railgun, Red Data Girl (wouldn't really recommend), K-On!, Tamako Market, and Hanayamata (haven't seen) are some dubbed moe anime I know of. Girls und Panzer has a dub, but it's recommended that you watch subbed.
I do both really but I'm not afraid to watch subbed but in this sea of anime looking and being the same having a dub break it up makes me happy. It's gets tiring reading after awhile.

You seem to be confusing the terms "trope" and "cliche". All media contain tropes, this is not a bad thing. A piece of media without tropes would just be a black screen with nothing happening. (and even that is arguably a trope)

Nah. I missued the word and should have just said they were boring and bland. A poor choice of word but you know some of these creator take the most overused trope in anime and it pretty much writes their story.

From your perspective yes, but the truth might just be that they are taking influence from other successful works in the industry. Sometimes a unique spin on an overused premise can have better results than creating something entirely original for originality's sake.

Please don't say they are lazy.

Because they're actually crazy.

But those type of shows suck balls...unless you're talking about things making fun of it like One Punch Man.

being crative in limitation is more creative than being creative in liberty... you have to make sure the already abused trope not getting any lower... you have to entertain viewer which can easily got saturated with a very little content can be explored... how the fuck is that not creative?

I'm not one to put labels on anything but I won't call them crazy. Let's be reasonable here.
