I've been seeing lots of people hating on this anime called Gintama, I don't get why are people hating on it? I actually think it's good, this is the first samurai anime I've seen.

The first couple episodes are so dry, people lose interest before they get around to the 30th episode mark. Even once I got to there, it's still nothing stellar, I've seen better comedies, and its attempts to be heartwarming are out of place.

Besides Gintama has five spots on the MAL top 10, I think the general consensus is most people love it.

Anime/Manga specific threads should go into their respective sub-boards.

OT BTW:

Look at Top 10, count gintama sequel in there. that's your answer.

Why does anybody hate anything? It's simply because they don't like it and don't think it's good. Just because there are several people that like it doesn't mean that everybody will.

I just don't feel like diving into another series that has over 100 episodes. Whether I like it or hate it is irrelevant since I can't adequately judge whether I like or dislike it anyway not having seen it.

There is no specific reason really. I don't really see as much hate for it than say... as much as I see hate for Naruto and even then, there's quite a few people who still keep up with the anime/manga... they're just not going to tell you about it. Well... used to... Since I heard the manga finished recently.

It's a comedy so it's either because they don't like the cast or because they don't think that the comedy is funny.

Mostly because of it's rank on this site. Anime like Gintama are bound to have haters.. It also parodies aspects of the shounen genre as well as others.. I don't get how someone can be watching Gintama and not understand the hate for it.

It has to be a form of protest over the broken scoring system that allows it to colonise half of the Top 10.
Some feel like it's a legitimate struggle to have after other peaceful means have failed.

if you go to episode forum. you will get the answer more detailed, but i think you will lazy enough to do it than i'll explain it.

first look at context.

it's parody of nanamura ryoutaro conferension pers. in reality, nanamura actually have to explain the corruption he do, but in the end he only fabolous apologize without give any explanation. it become famouse local meme in japan. gintama do it reverse. in this time, gintama should make apologize because fooling it fans with final chapter, even a movie about it. but in the end it become gintoki express what staff felings because gintama get sequel.

they also mimiced what nanamura doing during conference and make them more close with it.

ok now to the content.

first part gintama staff surprised gintama movie 2 get really make many money. but also because of it, MAN IN BLACK also come to them to be sponsor and want the sequel, when staff already move on from it. that's make problem to them. and not just like that, without staff noticed, gintama production moved from sunrise to Bandai namco Pictures.

second part of joke is part of usal gintama critizing each other character. i think it's better not to explain it.

third part is just usual gintama become 0 give a fuck about everything. they just like "we conotinue, we not feel bad for trolling you, poor you!".

even the last part gintoke yell "PSYCHO PASS!". that's because psycho pass movie get more money than them. it's like screw you psycho passs.

TL;DR

yes gintama is brainless intertainment, but if you don't have any knowladge about it refference , of course refference gonna flay above your head. maybe this look not funny for everyone, but only people that already get used and know about it will laugh on it.

Why do people hate Naruto and Bleach or even One Piece now?

Popularity= love+hate ^2
I have no idea, One Piece is an actually a very good anime.

It's popular thus people hate it.
The humor is Japanese thus non-Japanese hate it.
They use a lot of referential humor, thus people who don't get the references doubly hate it.

Stop worrying about other people, they, including myself, are idiots, just watch what you like.

It probably because there are too many different season of Gintama ranked in the top 10 in MAL ranking.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

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.

Here is a question, why so many people like it, why is number 1 or close, in most anime websites?, that's a question I would like to be answered.

Now say what you'all want...
I was asking for the actual reason.

Because those people are people who can see what is really funny for themselves, not some obnoxious contrived reference laden kind of jokes that everyone claims to be the best thing ever exists for anime since, well, anime.

Or they are just anti hippies. Accept it, Gintama is not universally liked. Only anime hippies like it. It's actually not because Gintama takes five spots in the top ten of MAL, it's the reverse. People come to MAL not knowing what Gintama is, and the first thing they see is some random series taking half the top ten's love. Outside MAL, it's pretty unknown, to the non Japanese general anime discussions, that is.
