you should have put those questionmarks to the title

I love it when my friends insult my taste in anime because it comes this inside joke within my friend group and it's all fun and good.

What the fuck did you just say to my obvious superior taste in chinese finger paintings?

Noone ever does tbh. If they did the joke is on them since I very likely like some of the same shows they do.
I probably regret this post by now.

It hurts me a bit but I just ignore them and move on. Who cares what they think? Not everyone has the same tastes as them.

Help, I'm hooked into the Fate series (not all) and am obsessed with Shirou x Saber!
Also, forever hoping for a ufotable remake of the Fate route!

First I pause. Then I reread what the person has posted (if I'm talking with the person I tell them to repeat themselves).

Then I scream as loudly and autistically as I can while acting as though I have a fit on the floor.

Usually that stops the person from ever insulting my taste in anime again (if we're speaking face to face). It rarely works online though for some reason.

My taste is pretty much that scene in Toradora where

I seek those types of moments in anime and by extent the romantic and emotional closure I feel in said scenes above all else. The culmination of their feelings and fulfillment of their love makes me feel like I'm a part of their adventures as if I was literally in there with them. Anyone who can say that enjoying those moments is bad does not have an opinion worth valuing, as pretentious as that sounds.

I don’t care. That’s it. Tip of advice, you shouldn’t care either. Enjoy whatever the heck you want to. Someone disliking an anime you like isn’t your problem. Enjoy Boku no Pico if you want to! Hell, disliking whatever you want is fine, too. Dislike FMA: Brotherhood if you want to! Generic choices, but you get the point.

If it's someone that I'm friends with, I insult them back. That's the true sign of friendship, nothing like some friendly banter.

There is no "Bad Taste", the only person who knows what you like the most is yourself.

You can never insult those users who fapped to me, clearly a very superior fappable imouto.

On the side note, there are three things I know of that stands true. You're either memeing right now. Two, you're either triggered right now, or three, the combination of two. You see, every "insult" can be a form of "argument" in which you dismissed just because, either the user clearly hates the series and you cannot accept the fact that the series you dearly love just have that major flaw that everyone will bash for.

I might meme SAO for being what it is, but I dearly love SAO for what it offered to me as a gateway to anime, mainly isekai. Yes I know it had a very bad pacing, yes I know Kirito-sama's power of convenient plot armour is just so bad it hurts. Yes, I know that due to the pacing, the romance might seem a little force or just thrown out of the context. Yes, I know the sex scene isn't that best considering it's censored. Yes, I know it's JP, so it has to be censored. Yes I know the movie showed the uncensored oppai (FFS JP! YOU DID IT RIGHT!). But, wholly, I enjoyed the series for its flaws that ultimately made me think of the instances 'what if...'

Yes I know you love Emilia. Yes, I know she's trash: https://myanimelist.net/blog/_Ako_


Yes, I know CGDCT are plain boring: Koufuku Grafitti

Let's see if you can say that again.


Yes I know sexualization of female is done right in ecchi. You'd might argue on a different stance, but I am very well sure you'll argue that sexualization of male in yaoi is done right whereas, the depiction of male MC in isekai, generally is done wrong.


The context is not that different. We're talking about fiction here so let's add realism to it and blow everything in proportion. FFS humans.

A couple such friends insulted my interest in anime as childish and immature. I looked at them with disgust filled eyes, got them by their neck and made them watch Death Note, Hellsing and FMA:B.

They couldn't stop gushing positivity about anime from then on, and after overcoming my false sense of superiority on changing their views on anime, I went right back to doing what I was doing.

Stop giving a shit about what your friend says about what you enjoy, if it ain't illegal and it doesn't bother anyone else, you don't need anyone's permission or approval to do them.

If someone say any one of my favorite anime is shit, does that count as insult?

NO one had insulted me directly like you mentioned,
but since I am not sure what taste I have right now, I have no idea how to react.

Btw, Can someone judge what's my current taste based on my recent list?

I assume those that ever do that to anyone have trained some sense to see where such statement might actually hurt, and who could not care less, and so focus on harrassing the former but not waste their time on the latter.

Who cares what they think. People like different things. Not everyone is gonna agree.

That being said, your friend is fricken piece of shit and you should kick his/her ass for dissing anime! Do it. We got your back!!

Doesn't really matter to me. I honestly have no distinct taste in anime. Except for the racy and erotic genres, I pretty much watch every genre. And everyone has their own opinion, I just hope there's a pinch of objectivity in it.

Just ignore.
The only thing that would make me sad is if they (Japan) no longer produce the kind of anime I like.
or when the anime I like not get enough sales or fans in Japan.
I don't give a single f about what ppl think about my taste.
