| Ok so for many years ive avoided anime/manga fan discussion because I believe anime/manga fans on the internet truly are negative. Exhibit A: Rezero, i gave it an 8. currently its one of the highest rated rated series. But the most up rated reviews are the negative ones. Exhibit B: I cant go on a one piece discussion without seeing hate for other series to elevate one piece. Gotta shit one Naruto to point out why one piece is better....you can elevate something on a pile of crap, but it will rather smelly! Why the hell is this? I love anime, but find myself hating anime fans because of this. Anime is generally about positivity, but fans seem to be 80% about negativity. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY? BTW I'm asking this because I really wan't people's opinions. Open discussion is not about bate or shit sturring, I really want an open discussion. Just to clarify, the negativity I'm talking about is: This anime is a one, people who like it are idiots or this anime is a ten, anyone who doesnt like it is a moron. Different opinions are awesome, but spewing poison online due to an inability to have a positive discussion is odd to me. |

| Nihilism Cynicism Inability to accept others opinions Pessimism Some insults are 'ironic deconstruction of insults normally used like this' or insert other answer on why someone was an ass list goes on |
| It's like this, because anime is no different from anything else in that regard. People like to be negative in general. Ever been to a gaming forum, better yet, a board for audio equipment guys? Car guys? Any other discussion board ever? And you got to shit on Naruto, that is literally why it exists, though personally, I'd prefer if we pretended it never existed in the first place. |
 |
| Let's spit some facts first,if the most up rated reviews of Re:Zero are negative is cause they did a critical review instead of giving it a 10 and say how it totally isn't a generic light novel like a fuckn retard.Also One Piece is better then Naruto and that's facts. |
| Because people who dislike a show are also free to express their opnion and discuss the anime? |
| The internet is just a bitter, horrible place for no good reason. Try to find people in the real world that share your interests. There is a 110% chance of them being nicer. |
| Got oppai? |
| You rated Ghost in the Shell and Howl no Ugoku Shiro 5. @JokerVentura why are you so negative? |

| I mean I think that's just the default state of most fanbases. It's always either you hate something or you fanboy it or you avoid the community like a plague resulting in the lack of a side. Of course when you add in popularity it then becomes a target for both sides. |
| The better question is why are you so sensitive? If you can't handle it, then stop visiting forums. And you know someone is shitposting when they said they want to have an open/genuine discussion |

| Because everyone hates chinese cartoons obviously. |

| Really easy to be negative towards Rem:Zero when you've had weeaboo fanboys screaming in your face about it for 25 weeks straight. Especially when the only reason why people care about that show is because of the waifu. |
| Anime fans = neckbeards Neckbeards = easy fits of rage Understand? |
 |
| Because there are these people that have annoyingly strong opinions, and insist on spreading them everywhere. People also look for reasons to hate certain anime just because...... ...well I don't know...hating on mainstream stuff I guess? There are also people with a superiority complex (aka Elitists), and they demonstrate it by going in discussions and shitting on the anime people love, insisting that the anime they like are better, literally only to fuel their complex. I don't know; I'm probably wrong. |

Fucking THIS I had to get RES and filter my r/anime subreddit because evry second god damn post was about Re:Zero, or just Rem :| I will still pick it up again and watch it. On the other hand, people are generaly more hatefull on the internet where no one knows who you are. You can talk all the shit you want whitout any real consequences. Unlike in real life. |
 "So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." |
| Media is an escapism, a lot of people speak their minds, its easier to be negative than positive. Lots of reasons. |
 |
| The average MAL rating is 7.xx so I don't see why the few reviews that have gone top should be taken as the indicator. Jans6ever said: The most helpful and hence top review of Re:Zero was a positive one, rating it as a 9 But that review, that represented the majority of the people who watched the show, got deleted who knows for what reason This is the reason for the specific one you are talking about anyway. Nice spot Jans. People aren't overtly negative for the most part but like in any group, the extremes are often the most vocal and re:zero was a hot topic. Trust me it was even harder to get away from the fanboys than the cynics even though both were inescapable unless you deserted most anime sites. |
| Ever played a MOBA? I mean, people are generally negative, arrogant, shitty, etc. I'd say the anime community is pretty good off how it is, it's mostly people putting the word 'tard' after the name of someones favorite anime or telling others that their argument is invalid because they gave anime X a rating of Y. |
| I'm negative when it comes to talking about anime. That stuff's boring as crap. When it comes to talking about other things, no. This website's full of pessimists, get over it. |

| FANDOMS thats what if you go to a place with serious discussions about shows then yeah negativity is a common thing I have seen it everywhere In the ASOIF/GoT community/DW community/SW rebels community/SW community in general/Tolkien fans Anime fandom isnt special its just another fandom. |
 |
| Shit anime+popularity = get a lot negative response. |

Bowie said: Anime isn't about positivity.The fuck type of anime you watch OP? All I see is tiddies and onii-chan's getting some incest going. That may be not a positive thing for you guys... But for me it sure is a good thing.. |
Jans6ever said: 'But that review, that represented the majority of the people who watched the show, got deleted who knows for what reason, so now only the negative reviews are left. And several ones of them are poor reviews, not because they are negative but because they are really bad reviews.'The Best rated review of Re:Zero was a positive one, rating it as a 9 (i gave it an 8 aswell, i enjoyed the show a lot and i think is solid, though i understand what people might not like about it). But that review, that represented the majority of the people who watched the show, got deleted who knows for what reason, so now only the negative reviews are left. And several ones of them are poor reviews, not because they are negative but because they are really bad reviews. Also, this show has a lot of haters for reasons that are hard to explain so ill let you discover that, most of the anime fandom is preety positive about what they like and dont attack what they dont like, they just arent as noisy. Well that's because MAL deletes reviews after a show is finished airing.If a show is good it will get positive reviews no matter what but if a show is average and is overhyped then it's certain it will get negative reviews after a show is finished airing and judging by your comment.....  |

| Because most of these guys have had crappy childhood (what a lot of people on folks on Crunchyroll have too if you do enough research on the polls section) and nerdy, pessimistic lives. I know you're annoyed or upset about this, but just let them cry in their mom's basement, closet, bathroom, etc while you become the bigger man learning better vocabulary and treating better people the way they want to be treated. Anime fans could cry in their mom's basement or even serve your fries like the sad, pathetic social rejects that they are. |
| @JokerVentura, It's not that the anime fans are negative, it's just the Internet m8. Better get used to it... |
 |
| because internet is the best place to show evil side from humans |
Z-Dante said: @JokerVentura, It's not that the anime fans are negative, it's just the Internet m8. Better get used to it... Anime fans are still going to be negative, whether it's on the Internet or in real life. The Internet just helps the hate flow quicker. |
zal said: You rated Ghost in the Shell and Howl no Ugoku Shiro 5. @JokerVentura why are you so negative? Those are my personal ratings, that isnt me being negative, its my opinion If I was being the kind of negative I've seen online, I would write a review and state every who gave it more is an idiot. I don't think this, but so many reviews I see on many anime seem to say this, that is the negativity I mean. |
| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| Yeah I absolutely agree. Its like these forums exist to shit on everything related to anime. Ever. You can only interact and discuss normally with people that are your friends, becuz they dont act like negative cunts |
JokerVentura said: The thing is that if someone makes a negative review just stating his opinion there will be tens of fanboys that will spam their comment section with hate comments and the excessive negativity of the review is just a reaction to them. zal said: You rated Ghost in the Shell and Howl no Ugoku Shiro 5. @JokerVentura why are you so negative?

I don't think this, but so many reviews I see on many anime seem to say this, that is the negativity I mean. You probably are referring to the top review of Re:Zero that rated it a 3 right? 2 months ago that review just said his opinion that Re:Zero kinda sucks but after many fans posted retarded comments on his profile he reacted like that. |

| Why are people negative in general? Because people like negativity. They have an aversion towards excessive positivity because it feels artificial -- it feels artificial because they're so used to being negative all the time and suddenly changing an incredibly significant part of your worldview freaks you the fuck out subconsciously. Consistency can be managed, but when things start changing, that's considered unpredictable and threatening. |

| Anime fans love their salt too much after all. |

| Just look at the rating Re: Zero has, its the best its fans could hope for regarding its quality, thats positive I guess?

I agree with the first part, but why would OP be better than Naruto? I dont see the obvious superiority except for filler percentage. Ezekiel said: zal said: Those scores are fairly accurate.

 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |

| I'm not sure about this topic. Since I've meet a bunch of anime lovers in real life, but they are not negative as what this forum says. they're open on everything and very fun to be with. maybe you see or met negative fans are only on internet not in reality. |
The world is cruel, ugly and pitiful. Let's watch anime and make it colorful |
Dishonest said: Not really. The movie has obvious flaws, mostly from trying to condense several manga chapters into one story and relying a lot on exposition rather than subtle visual storytelling. The animation is cheap for a movie, with lots of stills and the characters not moving for most of the dialogue. I also find the song that plays in the intro and middle kind of grating and melodramatic after a while. I prefer the U2/Brian Eno song at the end in the localized version over the same song a third time. I rate it a 7 when I'm enjoying it and a 6 when I don't. Maybe my next viewing will be more pleasurable.Ezekiel said: Those scores are fairly accurate. I love Miyazaki, but Howl's Moving Castle is kind of a mess.

The animation is cheap for a movie, with lots of stills and the characters not moving for most of the dialogue. I also find the song that plays in the intro and middle kind of grating after a while. I'm glad the original version has a song by U2 in the credits instead of the same music a third time. I rate it a 7 when I'm enjoying it and a 6 when I don't. Maybe my next viewing will be more pleasurable. I dont know about the manga part but the animation for sure isnt bad for a 1995 year production, the soundtrack is one of the best(that sounds too subjective so i should say 'matching') out there, also the dialogues are pretty short. No way would i call that a 5/average, you also rate it between 6 and 7. |

| Everything is better with a touch of salt |
 |
| Internet is negative, in general. And the anime fandom is like 99% active on the internet in some way or the other, where confrontations over petty stuff happen every day and hour. I also blame the typical "anime is shit" memes that people repeat just for the laughs and giggles. |
| Global mean score is around 7. This shows us that there are more positive people than negative people. I think negative people (let's say haters) are more willing to show themselves than positive people (and lovers). Haters just can't stand lovers and try to surpass them. I just generalized the anime/manga fan community, so of course there are exceptions. |
