Hunter x Hunter truthbomb.

For my opinion's worth, I think HxH has been missing it's potential since York Shin written by an author of a visual medium who substitutes visuals with massive super boring text logs which makes me question why he doesn't switch to writing novels. The story itself has been filled with plot conveniences, horrible anticlimaxes and lots of exploration of boring meaningless plot threads and characters no one gives a crap about. In the very last batch of chapters, Togashi, brilliant mastermind genius that he is, decided to introduce aNew WorldDark Continent as well as introduce some newStandguardian spirit system after 300 chapters of not a hint of either of these existing but I'm sure they were the plan all along. Not to mention Don Freecs! Oh my god how exciting, Don Freecs, we know nothing about him and never had a hint of him ever existing but this is such a major development, I mean he has such a cool name and he was making a journal on this mysterious continent we've never heard of before!

Well whatever, let's enjoy our like ten chapters of content while they last :)

You don't even know what edgy means. Being smart and having idealogical debates with gory deaths isn't edgy.

HF Shirou makes the most sense and the internal struggle is handled perfectly with the best characters of the franchise having big roles in the route.

Tohno Shiki I can agree with.

Clannad and Mushishi are mediocre anime overrated by the masses.
Yoshii Kiria took over as leader of Fairytale and rebuilt it and became one of Tsukunes formidable enemies but let's save that story for another time

Hehe, let me introduce him to you again, kid. This is Shuzen Issa (who is MIA during the final battle), who will become your 'trainer' starting today. You still have much to go if you want to become the headmaster.

That's more of an opinion .

I was messing around with what I said about Zero but I suppose if I say that now it'll seem like I'm running away .

Edit - Also anime like Zero are prone to being called edgy .The clashes of ideologies are more like clashes of motivations .The anime itself is not particularly intelligent but with the praise surrounding it and it's reputation as a mature anime some might be prone towards calling it edgy due to hipsterism (lol is that a word) as wwll as because they had overly massive expectations .Some of the idealogical debates also have very little place for discussion nowadays (people dont care much for kings in the 21st century) .Don't get the wrong idea though I'm not bashing it (at least I don't intend to) .Just explaining why you shouldn't be surprised if someone called it edgy .Btw I'd give it a 9 .

Mawaru Penguindrum tried incorportaing over the top comedy with a serious story. Much like FMA Brotherhood I found this a detriment.

SSY only has worldbuilding going for it.

Mushi-shi is the ultimate feels bait anime (in a bad way) and gets away from it. We have episodic sob stories every single episode but the only reason people don't criticize it for that is because we have a stoic MC in a tranquil environment. .

the only thing i can think of is how disappointed i was with clannad: as - but that seems to be the case with quite a lot of people. the ending literally ruined the whole show for me.. i'm not one to enjoy being incredibly sad one moment then have the show be like "jk everything's okay hahaha". yeah, no.

also the ecchi being produced now-a-days is complete and utter shit.

Jun maeda isn't a good writer
Angel beats and clannad were very average

Real Life is overrated.
The best girls there are only as good as background girls in a harem. Balance is horrible. There is no plot, no themes, and it isn't even funny.

Me too. I think it's just for fat people that need to project themselves on a young naive protagonists that is strong.

The things sport anime bring can be done way better in other genres.

I thought sports anime are only watched by yaoi fangirls who imagine the muscled boys as lovers.

It's just too boring to argue with his haters, because they have never experienced the glory that is F/SN the visual novel.
Also, people who disparage it for being a hentai game are prudes. Any healthy man should read/play a few hentai games in his life. I guess it applies to women too, because equality.

ehh... i don't find mushishi is emotionaly provoke (in extream way). it just play it self naturally. there is balance amount of sad/depressing stories and heart warming/positive stories. both of them are not taken it self too deep make viewer hard though about it, but still let you to think about conclusion yourself. kinda like natsume yuujinchou i would said rather than aria.

It really doesn't. You're just dumb
Ah yes, naming Greek statues after postmodern philosophers adds a lot to a show, especially when that show fails to implement any of those philosophers ideas other than the man for whom the show was named, and even then, it's only a precursory glance. Allow me to hammer the phrase Raison D'etre into your head and see if your suddenly think I'm deep.


EP talks A LOT about the impossibility to reconcile raison d'être and libre arbitre (a goal and free will). That's the whole motif behind the Autoreivs and Cogito virus (Pino being one of the few bots who doesn't go crazy because she wasn't built for a specific purpose)

Now I'm not going to say there's nothing either in Tehxnolyze. But for me EP kicks Tehx's soundtracks, art style and animation in the nuts. It also doesn't rely on poorly directed fight scenes and other blood foutains to keep the viewer awake. If EP is guilty of quoting random philosophers, Tehxnolyze is guilty of going head first into "dark=mature/deep"

No matter how deep Tehx is or tries to be, it still has the WORST action scenes I ever saw in an anime. And yeah, even the 80's stills à la City Hunter are more convincing than the fight scenes in Tehx.


OT: Steins;Gate is seriously a shitfest and I can't wrap my head around the fact that it's one of the most popular show here. The animation sucks, the soundtrack sucks, the characters suck, the plot sucks, the meta jokes suck, and it's outright offensive as soon as it touches subjects like sexual orientation or skin color. It sucks. Elfen Lied was more enjoyable and less offensive.

Tsunderes are the worst. The whole concept of the cold statements while supposedly being sweet about it just really irks me and I can't see it as any other way than abuse. "It's not like I like you or anything... baka." If that's the case, then why are you talking to me? Verbal abuse is still abuse. And on that note, Asuka Langley Soryu is just a wench.

The first season of Owari no Seraph was so bad and its attempts at being edgy is just about as dysfunctional as the change of plot of Norn9: Norn+Nonet, and that anime isn't even done airing yet. I still can't seem to stop laughing at barely first few seconds into Owari in how the first episode how everything just falls apart...

Mawaru Penguindrum made no sense whatsoever.

Is it me or does it seem like 14 years of age in an anime is like the new 18 or 21? Kids seem to be able to be having sex, drinking, even freaking driving cars like it's nobody's business. Maybe the prerequisite for that is some sort of worldwide incident... I don't know. Also the phrase "This is the springtime of our youth" makes me cringe.

KyoAni seems to only be a moe fanservice powerhouse... not that I'm complaining!

Cowboy Bebop only has 5 good episodes.

The truth has been spoken! For awhile I thought I was the only one!

As a side note: as someone who'd rather wait till a series completion that has recently been catching up with airing anime... I've found that it's easier to get disillusioned by a series if you're not waiting in anticipation for the next episode.

I'm not really a fan of het romance anymore. I don't know why, or when I stopped enjoying it but reading/watching yuri anime and manga opened my eyes to a different style of romance that I appreciate more than het. I don't hate het and heck, there's even het romances that I do like but for romance, I tend to stick with yuri even though the anime market for it is almost nil.
