| For me, this Waifuism AKA 2D>3D madness takes the cake. Back in the days, anime is seen as someone a nerd would nerd out on. You know, like Star Wars and Star Trek. Nowadays, anime is associated with all sorts of weird stuff that normies would nope the fuck out as soon as they hear the word anime. I don't blame them especially when this kind of shit is happening irl: |
 |
| None, because all of them are making me stronger. |
 |
| Sometimes people don't seem to realize how small a medium anime is. I mean there's a lot out there but compared to something like movies or live action television it's a pretty small world. So people with all sorts of different tastes end up crammed into one community. Wish people would understand that. But instead we just get this never ending battle of ____ is shit no _____ is shit cause people want every single thing that exists to pander to their tastes completely. It's obnoxious. |
| None , I can't care less about the community 2D >>> 3D btw :) |
 |
| This bullshit level of elitism where people slam dubs and people who like them for no reason other than they prefer subs. Then people who only like dubs who come slam people who prefer subs and attack them for no reason other than dubs. Thats the biggest problem with this fanbase is this bullshit belief that what you like is superior and others have to agree with you or they're wrong. Just let people like what they like, it shouldn't effect you. We're all in the same community and fanbase(s) so we should get along, leave the debates for other things. |

| I don't like lolicons. Does that count? |
 |
| The elitism and rancid hostility. That's it. Subs/dubs, waifus, studios, it pretty much exists in all fields. This also occurs with video games, western cartoons, generally everything. |

| a tie between people caring about what other people like so much and the copious amounts of unfunny self-depricating memeing about being an anime fan, jokes are only funny when the same ones aren't being told in the same places on a daily basis, especially when those jokes tend to have strong undertones of insecurity over trite matters such as liking anime |

| who's your favorite re:zero waifu? mine's felix. |
Edward Elric > your waifu  |
| normies being turned off by anime is supposed to be a bad thing? the less of them the better |
| What bothers me in the anime watching community isn't the weebdom or fanaticism, but this perpetual state of a select group of people whom feel like it makes them superior when they constantly have a holier-than-thou attitude. The never-ending needing to toot their own horn and pompous behaviour through a thinly veiled disguise of intellectualism and condescension through their superiority complex ridden attitude towards others while not realizing that the way they act is entirely deplorable in nature. Often projecting their insecurities through cheap high horse-ry and dismissal remarks while they vainly balloon their egoes. The sad thing is that they don't realize that the only thing they're doing is embarrassing themselves and alienating themselves further and further from the community by the disillusion of being better than the rest while they watch Japanese cartoons and masturbate to animated pornography. |
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives. |
| * elitist nd shit taste * waifu/hubando stuff * screaming about feminism * complaining about ecchi being ecchi * hating fujoshis for no obvious reason |
| The elitist meme. from those who try to be elitist to those who whine about elitist, and everything in between. |
| N.etorare T.echnical R.esearcher |
| The side that feels the need to belittle the entire medium they as a community are part of. Whether it is sarcasm or a joke, it's enough to the point it's just tiresome to see. |
| - Most of the fujoshis behave badly, and no, I don't hate them, I just stay away from the crazy ones. - Immature men-children shounentards and their bullshit. - Over analyzing shitlords, no, K-On isn't a materpiece or Re:Zero isn't a complex deconstruction and social commentary. Nope. |
| waifu culture the elitist meme dere idols fangirling about sports anime instead of reading actual yaoi circlejerking over the same anime "__ done right" edgy as buzzword |
| Forced shipping. Not everything has to be shipped. K? |
 |
| The fans who think they are "cool" if they're taking about how much they hate a certain anime and how bad it is. |
| I wish Digibro and his followers would disappear from the community. |

| I think humanity in general would do better without those creepy idol/seiyuu fans who send death threats to their objects of cult. Like, removing them from existence would be fine enough. The rest I can handle. |
| Back in the days What days? Waifuism has been around for decades. I remember reading a topic about Akihabara being swarmed by otakus in the mid 90s. So, what days? |

| personally, i hate how things like pedophilia or incest are normalized, glorified, and accepted by many members of the anime fandom. when the fandom accepts things like this, the industry continues to perpetuate the notion that these things are normal. this leads to more fandom acceptance. and then more industry perpetuation. it's a horrid cycle of escalation. there is genuine evidence that sexualization of small children in anime has lead to adults coming to asia just to abuse little girls and boys, which is just not okay in any way, shape, or form. sure, anime elitists, 12 year old weebs, sub vs dub battles, and overly enthusiastic fujoshi can be annoying. but they're small potatoes compared to the problems of lolicon and shotacon. these genres are detrimental to children who may be groomed by it, and to fans who may be lead to believe that pedophilia is alright through their viewing of it. there is a disturbing amount of this trend in anime and it needs to stop. a teenager who is way too into shipping hetalia characters isn't going to hurt anyone. a 40 year old who prays on young schoolchildren is. |

| Animation elitists. Like, you enter an episode discussion and sometimes the entire discussion is about ''muh cgi'' and ''the animation was crap'', and so on and so forth for pages. |

| Everything about the whole "elitist and casuals" debacle needs to die if this community ever wants to improve. Any actual elitists needs to stop, and any butthurt piece of shit falsely accusing someone of being one needs to stop as well.

| Lack of discussion in general. The fact that "discussion" threads about anime are mostly a collection of isolated opinions. |

| The only thing I do not like is when people are not open to criticism. |
| :) |
| The mindset of the source being a gospel and always superior, and an anime adaptation needing to slavishly follow it. |
| Oh hey, this topic. Let me see if i remember all the things I complained about the last time such a topic came up. I forget when it last came up but I do remember posting in it. * Applying memes to everything. * Turning everything into memes and running jokes. * Flaming things. * Shaming people for liking things. This goes for both popular and unpopular things, mind you. * Acting like only the most famous and/or only the most recent shows matter. * Being sarcastic/"ironic" about everything. * Constantly wanting something crazier, as if smacking an increasingly ineffective pleasure button. * Hype trains. * Hatedoms. * Complaints about there being content one doesn't like. (Disliking it is fine. But it's another thing to opine that it should die in a fire.) * Mistaking rudeness for honesty/candor. |

| 2D > 3D is one of the most undeniable facts though. There's a lot of shit thay should not exist, but it still does because others find it not shit. |
| hmmm hard to say really. But most important would be people attacking ecchi in the dumbest of fashion being all morally anal so to say second I want people to stop being all uptight about release vs chronological order. Like ok I always say chronological if given the chance but if someone picks release order I won't say their opinion of the show afterwards is wrong like Ive seen people who recommend release order do |
