| Now that Demon Slayer has grown so popular and even became so highly rated, will it become the next anime that will always be called generic, "trash", and overrated, and liking it will be called a "normie" thing? Now people who have it in their favourites will be called out for having "trash taste" in anime, for liking Demon Slayer too? This happens most of the time when an anime becomes so popular. I've already seen many judging others because they like Demon Slayer, like calling them "kny tards, low IQ kids", calling the anime the most overrated anime ever etc. So is this going to be the new trend now, to hate on the anime and those who actually found it really good and rated it high? |

| Haters gonna hate anyway. Who cares what they say? If you enjoyed this series, then good for you. If you didn't, move along. For me, it was definitely the best series that aired in previous season and this season altogether. Regardless of what others may say, it was a solid experience (for me) from start to finish. Also, at first, I thought the villain was a little silly and didn't truly understand why demons were so scared of him. Then, I thought that they were simply afraid of the curse. The last episode truly display why people should fear him, demons and humans alike. It was on par with the Re:Zero, Made in Abyss, the Promised Neverland and the FMA of this world. |
  |
| I haven't seen past 1 episode and don't got any hope for this series since it plundered my feeds with 10/10 on mal and tumblr. I don't even find it to be that geat :/ |
 |
| I might be inactive these days on forums, but no. This show isn't hated as much as Rezero, Sword Art Online and Ajin although I wish all those shows , excluding Demon Slayer, became rated 1/10 on MAL one day |
The word elitist is stupid since it's just used by people who can't defend their favorite shows and use it on people who criticize their favorite shows.  |
| popular shows gets a lot of haters that are usually just the vocal minority anyway while the silent majority are just enjoying this and it reflects on the growing fanbase of it anyway thats the usual case for popular shows |
| i have 32, i liked this anime, i read the manga means i'm retarded :))) i |
The spider is watching |
| Trendy/popular shows tends to get attentions of attention seeking elitists flaunting their so called "better taste" they won't disappear, they're always there waiting to bait people, hence why I don't reply to them. I kinda know who you're talking about and he's pretty well known on hating shows that gets a certain amount of hype, in other words a "pretentious edgy jerk" he did the same thing with Fire Force and made a thread about it being "overhyped" too cause his favorite show is getting overshadowed. My only advice is, just ignore the bait. |
  |
| ignore and enjoy. I love BNHA AND Kimetsu. So I got a lot of hate for that already lol. I don't care. You shouldn't too! |

Oh because demon slayer fans are very cool I have never seen a more deluded fanbase. I literally ruined the anime for me to see people calling it The greatest shonen of all time Best anime of 2019 Or calling episode 19 the greatest episode of all time The anime is good yes but it is so overrated. No way in hell it deserves to be above anime like code geass or death note (i am sorry it is not a matter of opinion since we are talking about ratings not prefferences) I hope people will calm down like they did with bnha cause honestly my hero has 2 season that are superior to demon slayer season 1 I know KnY fans are not saints either I'm just gonna copy what I replied to someone else A dude on YT said this, and it's really true. "The more popular an anime becomes, the larger the fan base becomes. The larger the fan base becomes, the more weirdos in the fandom with louder voices." KnY is no exception either. It has weird fans, like any other popular anime, but this is not even the topic of the thread. |
|
| Yep happens with every anime that reaches this level of popularity even if they're actually good, such as AOT, OPM, MHA. The only way for a lot of the hate to dissipate is for either the popularity of the show to massively decrease or for the quality of the show's writing, plot, characters to reach a level so high, that you give up and admit to how great the show is. Believe it or not, OPM actually has a lot less haters now than it did before. Back in it's prime before season 2, a lot people were still just blindly hating on the series. Now most of the hate is just directed towards JC Staff and you see a lot more people just speaking on how great the manga is. The 4 year wait, in addition to the loss of popularity from season 2, caused a lot of the hate to decrease. In the case of AOT, the 4 year wait caused it to lose a good amount of popularity (even though it's still extremely popular). That coupled with the increase of quality from season 2 and especially season 3 allowed the hate to calm down.Yeah there are still a lot of AOT haters now, but it doesn't even compare to the amount of hate it was getting from 2013-2017. And it's actually very highly praised now. MHA is still in that dreadful hate period and I honestly don't see how it's getting out. Unless Bones dropped MHA, which it definitely won't or takes like a 4 year break, then I don't see this series losing popularity anytime soon. Plus judging from what I've heard about the manga the quality often flunctuates and it doesn't really get that much better, so I expect the hate to continue strong. So for Kimetsu no Yaiba one of those two things need to happen. I don't see it losing that much popularity anytime soon, but a lot of manga readers have said some of the next arcs are gonna be much better than season 1. So let's see maybe the quality of the series may speak for itself when we get there, and that will cause the hate to go away. |

All i can say to you is WELCOME TO MAL. People always hate when something new is out, doesn't even matter if it's good or bad. |
| Yes, every anime that gains popularity more than expected goes through that. Just deal with it, Kimetsu no Yaiba is now going through the “omg this is so overrated” phase |
| So this is actually "normal" on MAL... I have only been using this site for about a year now, since Fall 2018, and during this time period there wasn't really any very popular anime. Well, Shield Hero was popular, but still not as much as KnY. I mean, I use the forum regularly, so it know how people act when it comes to popular anime, but I didn't know popular anime go through this all the time. |

Next season of anime will be about hate on the fourth season of my hero academia for no reason. |
| Lmao according to who? No and then you realize that when you get off the internet the majority in real life don't care. It's just the usual minority being the loudest... |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
TheKawaiiToon said: "Will hating on Demon Slayer and its fans be the new trend?" Yeah. Pretty much. I love KnY, yet I could also understand why people hate it. I mean, we don't have to enjoy the same thing anyways. Also, here in MAL, everyone thinks that: They are all wrong about the Overrated = Shit. |
Cabron said: Lmao according to who? No and then you realize that when you get off the internet the majority in real life don't care. It's just the usual minority being the loudest... Like always, but the more popular an anime gets the louder it gets. |
| If you have a section of it's fanbase proclaiming it to be a masterpiece, and one of the best shounen of all time after only 26 episodes of it's run, then don't be surprised to receive some sort of negative reaction to it. I like the anime personally, and gave it an 8 out of 10, but you can't deny it IS generic. It ticks all the relevant boxes that make a battle-shounen a battle-shounen, and does nothing which transcends it's genre or dares think outside the box. It's concepts are simple, but they're executed well. That's why I rated it an 8 and nothing more. |

| As everyone else here has said, yes. Especially since once you get into more hardcore anime fans like MAL tends to have, having a hate boner for any shounen good or bad is popular for some reason. |

Faytex said: Shame this is damn overrated, no way it's deserving of this high of a score. Not even ufotable top 3 work btw That's your opinion, but this is not the thread to discuss this. There are already plenty of those. |
|
| Yes, it probably will. After all, hating on something popular is always a trend. |
  “The most shameless thing in the world is political power that can be inherited regardless of ability or talent!” |
| Sure it will get some hate, but I don't think it will be that bad. It has plenty of good things going for it and is not saturated with aspects that people mostly complain about - edgy, overly dramatic, harem etc. And, most importantly, it's not an objectively hated isekai. |
Faytex said: Shame this is damn overrated, no way it's deserving of this high of a score. Not even ufotable top 3 work btw  All that needs to be said. |
| "You can't spell slaughter without laughter". |
| Yeah it will be. All they can do is regurgitate the same lines over and over again. "It looks good, but the story is shit". "Generic shounen lol". It seems they are incapable of original thought. Especially since they can never explain themselves or engage in a discussion over it. Half of the time it's their fault. Complaints about power-ups or abilities they didn't even bother to pay attention to. Had the same problem with nen in HxH |

-Aincrad- said: Nostalgik said: As long as distasteful nerds have access to the internet, shiting on other people's preferences will always be a trend True, I've experienced that a lot... Maybe if you werent such a fanboy of this series, easily triggered by anything people would say, and you just gone your way instead of butting on others conversations, people wouldnt give you such a rought treatment (which still doesnt justify people being and behaving like retards and they should stop). Does this anime really receive that much hate though? For once the score is too freaking high, never expected anything to reach the level of being overrated as Made in Abyss again, but there it is. But my point, yes the anime isnt that worth it of all the hype and praise it is getting, BUT it is still one of better releases of recent years, specially when it concerns to shounen, there is nothing really that it does wrong, unless they are trolls, I would find hard for most people to say they disliked the anime. While I rated it a 9, it is only a 8.8, not even close to 9.0-9.4 or over a 10. I would say it was rated well if it had score of 8.40 or something, since lets not forget all the good qualities the show has, caliing it trash or giving 1s while being vocal about it is just asking for attention. |

| Its a "Love the Show but Hate the Fandom" case for me similar to BNHA AND JJBA. The show itself is really good and worthy of praise but the most vocal fans are ther most annoying for some weird reason. I know the annoying fans are a minority but its a very vocal one. |

| We know Demonslayer was a "brilliant Adaptation" even if they thought the source Material does not do animation justice Doesn't change the fact that it was well-adapted and has to be treated separate from the Manga Not that i personally have that issue with the "source Material" It's just that, If the anime is approaching top 10 People are bound to compare it with the top shows And they don't like the comparison then ofcourse they would protect their Preferred title Like if someone says Demonslayer is the best anime ever then IT would not suprise me at all If Fans of Hunter X Hunter were to join the fray Others like to discredit UFOtable for there use of CGI Saying they don't like CG in Anime, But i one for one believe that the way they used those scenes to set up a Dynamic angles-Only added more to the show I love KnY but people should still be open to older shows of the same (genre) |

| Yes, all you fans will be attacked by demonic haterz!! Serves you right Demon Slayer fans!! Victim mentality through the roof lol |

Good job proving the point of the thread in your reply, lmao |

| @angelk99 In a thread where that's literally not the subject of the thread, and you provide zero reasoning for it, it is hating for the sake of hating. Go to a thread where the quality of Demon Slayer is the actual subject and you're not proving the point of the thread in the thread, lol. |
