Idk if it’s just my experience, but I’ve seen a considerably large number of insane people who like this show. It’s just a comedy anime from the 2000s what do these people see in it that make them turn into schizos?

-It was made in the golden Age
-It's CGDCT
-There's a maaAAnGAaaA
-It's comedy, slice of Life, gag humor


Why are you surprised?^^

I kinda have to agree. I just thought it was a decent 6/10 manga with a 7/10 anime adaptation.

If I’m being honest, I thought Lucky Star was a much better slice of life/CGDCT anime than Azumanga Daioh. That one gets a strong 8/10 in my book.

For me both are excellent, with very good casts. I love Lucky Star the most because it's cooler and funnier, and less predictable, however most of the anime references are dated

This is true, I mean it's probably the most relevant anime on r/okbuddybaka, should tell you enough.

They spent too much time staring into Osaka's black hole eyes. She is an event horizon of uncanny.

Azumanga Daioh insists on maintaining a strong mundanity that it allows broken by only two or three things (one of which is Osaka, who is simultaneously vacant and somehow in tune with the universe); this makes its world feel very off at times, and is fairly unique.

On top of Azumanga Daioh already being a little weird, I think characters like Osaka and Chiyo's Dad contributed to the madness of the Azumanga community. They are both weird and memorable characters that can be inserted into any situation.
Also, the anime has been with the internet for a long time. I've heard that Yotsuba is the unofficial mascot of 4chan, and since Azumanga Daioh was made by the creator of Yotsuba to, I imagine that it's associated with 4chan as well. (I may be wrong with that, however.)

Okay, what is that picture. Saturn devouring his son is disturbing enough, but for something to be looming behind even that, and for it to be Chiyo's dad—even I didn't expect this level of weird. Bravo, Azumanga Daioh.

CGDCT wasn't a thing back there. Fanservice as well, sorta. Therefore no existing ballast whatsoever. Practically the first of its kind. On top of that, it was funny, aged extremely well to the point it ranks still #1 in my book what this 'genre' concerns.

Classic.

MAL is far from being my primary site for literature, which is why I’ve stopped doing single-chapter updates. Baka-Updates and two French sites are far superior—more detailed, complete, and less restrictive. They're perfect for manga, light novel, and book collectors like me, making the process much less stressful and tiring. -g-

I used to like this anime 20 years ago, but now it's become too popular with zoomers and alpha gen secondaries, so sadly I can't enjoy it anymore.
