I don't think people who don't like slice of life are just not interested in it. I personally am not interested in slice of life because if I wanted slice of life I would just go outside. I watch anime and other forms of entertainment to escape reality not be reminded of it. I can only watch slice of life if sci fi and fanatsy are included with it. |

As such, with your posts being as predictable as they are, I called my beloved favorites "moeshit" since you and your superior taste in cartoons opinion is rather condescending and gives off a sense of trying too hard to appear superior to others when it comes to anything other than the deepshit you worship (see? I can do it too). In other words, friend, I was simply acknowledging my favorites as the moe masterpieces that they so clearly are, though in such a way as to coincide with what your predictable response to me would be. So yes, I do know that they're moe as well as the fact that, to pseudo-elitists like yourself, they go by the name of "moeshit" as evidence by your earlier post in this very thread. Put even more simply: it was obvious bait and you bit. Your pathetic "comebacks" and weak arguments about how moe shows are supposedly for pedos are, at best, extremely predictable and boring. I see that you responded to my bait but intentionally avoided responding to my other post a few posts before. If you're going to act high and mighty, at least try and bite back at a real response so we can get some kind of discussion going rather than you just trying to grasp at straws because you have no good response to your own failure. May your inner pedophile be a internet one! I'm not really sure what this even means as a whole, but I guess you're trying to insult me? Well, I'll continue to enjoy my moe and cute girls at my current age and as I get even older, so you don't have to worry about that, friend. I'm not really sure what that has to do with pedophilia though, so I just won't even try and take the bait. I do appreciate the well wishes though. EDIT: I also love how you respond to Hulmy-sama by trying to play off of him supposedly not having anything to counter with yet do quite literally the same thing with regard to my earlier posts. Reality is harsh, huh? gamer's right though, I shouldn't even waste my time with someone who clearly isn't putting in the effort to make this a reasonable discussion. |

Don't even know why you're wasting your time with his shit taste. It's not worth the walls of text. He knows his taste is shit, but he can't accept it so he has to come up with false reasons as to why people like what he doesn't. Don't give him the light of day by actually being reasonable. |

Almost every series has its "slice of life" moments where we can see the characters doing some mundane thing, but when that becomes the focus of the entire series, it becomes too boring for me. If I wanted to watch mundane things I'd go out and watch people passing on the street. I can't stand a show that doesn't offer something out of the ordinary. |

Now, that is a criticism of slice-of-life I can totally accept and understand. But I doubt that you can make such a huge difference, considering that even the most fantastic, out-of-the-ordinary anime can have and usually has a base appeal that comes from portraying something you find recognizable or that reminds you of your own life, relationships or ideas. As long as you feel empathy for a character or a situation, this appeal will exist. A good slice-of-life is not necessarily the most accurate and close to reality. It's simply the most evocative. And this basis is the same that any narration with recognizable characters and situations follows. |

From those I've seen, the mundane aspects overshadow the supernatural ones, or they seem like an afterthought. I'm a big comedy fan, but few of them actually focus on the comedy either. |

The difference between watching a regular person's daily life and an anime about daily life is that one is being directed and purposely shaped to deliver certain messages, evoke certain emotions, and draw out specific values and ideas. What I probably like most about SOL is it presents life from multiple perspectives. We only have our own lives to perceive reality from, so seeing how others perceive aspects of it is like a learning experience for me. To see just how big the world really is from the accumulation of different character stories. |

Slice of life featuring ordinary people in ordinary circumstances with unwitty dialogue can be boring, yeah. But when you have either extraordinary characters (Yotsuba!&), extraordinary circumstances (Mushi-shi), or a combination of both (Cowboy Bebop), slice of life can be absolutely fascinating, as it certainly does deviate from your everyday norm, going so far as to detail minute mannerisms of such unique characters and/or circumstances. I actually like it when I can identify similarities to my own life, because it makes the anime all the more relatable -- not to mention it makes differences between my life and the characters' lives all the more highlighted. I actually enjoy SoL a lot, because it often forces writers to think more carefully about the dialogue and interaction between characters, as opposed to solely focusing on a grand save-the-world plot that loses such important details. I would love it if there were more. |

I agree to an extent. I think there are a lot of sol shows out there so it is easy to make that assumption. There are a lot of good ones out there. But since moe sells, the moe becomes a bit of a vocal minority. Meanwhile some of the good sol gets pushed into the background. |

On the other hand, saying they have the more and undeserved hate is a both harder to measure, and a matter of opinion.I think the point that Ckan is trying to make is that not all battle shounen are hated, just a few select series that have massive popularity (and are labelled as mainstream as a result). DrGeroCreation said: Indeed, and I'm not saying people don't hate battle shounen, nor that it's in small number. What I'm trying to say is 1. that poll is very specific in what we can derive from it, and 2., there's no good measurement for 'undeserved' and 'unnecessary' hate, so we're free to make assumptions, but they'll quite simply be generalisations.Okay but battle shonen anime do get a lot of hate on this site. My very first thread on this site addressed that and many people chimed in to explain why battle shonen anime get a lot of hate. http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=647285&show=0 |

Pretty much. I'd say that the hate is a counter to the large fanbase that the more popular series under that term tend to have. Say 10% of 100 people hate a particular series, that would be 10 people. Now change that to 10000 people hating a particular series and 10% of that is 1000. Still a similar proportion but there are many more haters and many more fans as well. |

The more people are watching/know an anime, the more hate it will have. And the people who don't like it will always be the one's who are louder, more noticeable then the other. And isn't it cool to hate an series, while a lot of people also do? |

@Ckan Okay fair enough. In my personal opinion from observance of this site is that battle shonen anime get more hate than slice of life on this site. I do think that some of the hate may be justified. SolBlade said: I agree that not all battle shonen anime are hated but I do think that battle shonen anime get more hate than slice of life on this site. Popularity factors into the hate for battle shonen anime as you have said in your other post.I think the point that Ckan is trying to make is that not all battle shounen are hated, just a few select series that have massive popularity (and are labelled as mainstream as a result). |

TheNaturalPerm said: Typing 2-3 paragraphs worth of text isn't exactly "putting in so much effort." As someone who loves to write (type?), multiple paragraph responses are to be expected from me since I tend to like to actually explain myself and all. It's why I don't post all the time, but when I do, it's a text wall that I assume 2-3 people actually fully read. AndyRayy said: TheNaturalPerm said: I suppose it's pointless to actually expend even this much effort for someone like you, but whatever:AndyRayy said: TheNaturalPerm said: *Looks at my original post* AndyRayy said: TheNaturalPerm said: Now, now. the shit taste is real No need to be so hard on yourself. inb4 "but your favorites are all moeshit" *Klicks at your profile* ... *looks at favorites* ...*sigh* ... *Sees my prediction that you would say almost exactly what you said ("inb4 "but your favorites are all moeshit")* ... *lol* - It should be common knowledge that adding the word shit to a thing in the anime community simply refers to that thing, except with a rather condescending tone attached. As such, with your posts being as predictable as they are, I called my beloved favorites "moeshit" since you and your superior taste in cartoons opinion is rather condescending and gives off a sense of trying too hard to appear superior to others when it comes to anything other than the deepshit you worship (see? I can do it too). In other words, friend, I was simply acknowledging my favorites as the moe masterpieces that they so clearly are, though in such a way as to coincide with what your predictable response to me would be. So yes, I do know that they're moe as well as the fact that, to pseudo-elitists like yourself, they go by the name of "moeshit" as evidence by your earlier post in this very thread. Put even more simply: it was obvious bait and you bit. Your pathetic "comebacks" and weak arguments about how moe shows are supposedly for pedos are, at best, extremely predictable and boring. I see that you responded to my bait but intentionally avoided responding to my other post a few posts before. If you're going to act high and mighty, at least try and bite back at a real response so we can get some kind of discussion going rather than you just trying to grasp at straws because you have no good response to your own failure. May your inner pedophile be a internet one! I'm not really sure what this even means as a whole, but I guess you're trying to insult me? Well, I'll continue to enjoy my moe and cute girls at my current age and as I get even older, so you don't have to worry about that, friend. I'm not really sure what that has to do with pedophilia though, so I just won't even try and take the bait. I do appreciate the well wishes though. EDIT: I also love how you respond to Hulmy-sama by trying to play off of him supposedly not having anything to counter with yet do quite literally the same thing with regard to my earlier posts. Reality is harsh, huh? gamer's right though, I shouldn't even waste my time with someone who clearly isn't putting in the effort to make this a reasonable discussion. can't read so much text! Especially not from some moe guy! ha! but man you sure put some effort into this internet thing! way to go Honestly, it probably requires less effort than that which your brain can ever hope to handle uses by leaving your useless one liners in seemingly every thread, just to run away when someone actually wants to engage with you. Though I'm glad that you at least didn't try to keep this little exchange going any further than it already has; a graceful retreat (minus the childish "insult" that just goes to show how hollow your reasoning ability really is). Also, I pray that your response to jal90 wasn't made under the impression that he was serious. Though I think that even you would be able to see that much. ------------- As a bit of shameless advertising side note, the link in my signature may be of interest to some of the people in this thread who associate "cute girls doing cute things" with slice of life. It lists every CGDCT anime listed on this site that meet certain qualifications (i.e. the main characters are girls and they're doing cute things, so only true moblobs and not harem/ecchi, etc.). Try taking a look at the number of CGDCT titles on that thread then compare it to the total number of slice of life anime out there period. Perhaps that'll help provide a little insight concerning the OP's point about the misconception that moe is slice of life, despite the fact that the ratio of moeblobs to non-moeblobs strongly suggests otherwise (though, admittedly, the list is not 100% complete and the decision of which titles to add is ultimately at the discretion of my goshujinsama Classiick, so don't go using it for your next statistical analysis research paper or anything). |

So enlightening, whoa. exactly! very good! you win today's round of the internet My main man doesn't even know what sarcasm is. @my post: There's no hope in your cause, you're a child who's doing what you're doing just to fit in with the "elitist" crowd. Can you think for yourself for once? |
