I can't think anything else, but those people looked like complete idiots and I'm laughing my ass off. They have some serious holes in their knowledge if their only reference is to the Sponge Bob.

They would get better reaction to Boku no Pico, lets see their view on gays on that one.

I remember seeing this on another thread but anyway I think they picked the wrong shows. they should have shown the nisemonogatari toothbrush rape or the pouf/hisoka orgasm scenes. It would have been more entertaining.

Buzzfeed just has to ruin everyone's expectations on everything.

Honestly...this went a lot better than I was expecting it to. Choosing Attack on Titan to watch was a good choice, but I felt that Kill La Kill was probably not the best option for newcomers. This video was probably just created for comedic purposes though, not to actually encourage people to try the medium.

People who don't watch anime though will probably take them seriously and not help give anime a better reputation :/

I knew this was going to be a quality video the moment I heard those words.

I do agree with the blonde said about characters being over sexualised. It's one of the reasons why I don't watch that much any more. Too many shows rely on eye candy to get viewers.

The camera adds on 5 pounds the urge to exaggerate, so not really surprising.

OT: Trying to exhibit an entire medium that covers multiple genres with just 2 shows (which granted were the 2 most popular shows of 2014), doesn't do squat.

It would have been nice to tell them that there are different genres/ratings of anime. I feel like they all just clumped up and put it in one category. I don't blame them though. I, however, hear more ridiculous things when I have to explain stuff to people when I fix their cars :/

Kill la Kill is not a good option for someone who started watching anime. I wouldn't dare to watch Kill la Kill with my family around.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.
