You hear that anime elitist? I can't say your taste is shit but i can at least call it boring. I found it pretty funny that this info came from /a/ when the exact same stuff happens here. I agree with pretty much everything here but i would at least say for MAL katanagatari wouldn't be on that list.

Edit: Uhh I didn't make this thread so people could list there own opinions. If you don't wanna watch the video basically digibro calls out those people with the legend of the galatic heros/ghost in the shell/tatami galaxy/mushishi/ergo proxy etc on their favorites list and says its the most boring possible favorites list because it says nothing about you

I like how people always attack "elitist" regardless of whatever medium were talking about, from music to film to anime, by calling whatever they enjoy boring. I'm sorry but some people just have a more sophisticated taste in their entertainment. I'm sorry you don't get it

That was a disgusting waste of time.

World Masterpiece theatre titles are rarely seen by most people

Cowboy Bebop is effing mainstream. It is action so I doubt that it is boring

Mushishi is a love it or hate it show. Either you will praise it or it falls to mediocrity in your eyes

Just watched the first 10 minutes, couldn't stand the all high and mighty pretentious bullshit.

Don't think you got the message. Its issue isn't that you like X anime, its that in your favorites list, which is supposed to represent which animes you personally like the most, is filled with nothing but the most acclaimed series that you can guarantee no one will question you for liking. Your favorites are supposed to be the shows that stuck out the most to you; crafting your favorites list based off of what other people like think is the best is kinda boring.

This is it. This is the mentality you're normally supposed to have when making a favorites list; its what YOU like. Which is why its so strange you have so many people on this website and elsewhere that seem to have molded their favorites based on a universal agreement.

Where did you get the elitist stuff from? You are even misinterpreting the one that you are using as your source. Elitist is not about what anime you like but you attitude towards others taste, so it seems that you have quite an elitistic behaviour "your show are shit because are boring" type.

Digibro calls out those that put those favourites to appear more intellectual or blend with the major consensus. If someone genuinely likes and thinks those shows are the best I don't see why others should judge.

Then again if it says nothing about you it is not necessarily boring but Digibro finds it that way which is fine. But the step from digibro's opinion to fact is non-existent. You are using somebody else's opinion to criticize a category which doesn't really exist, congratz.

Oh, wait I have Ping pong the animation on my favourites, I must have a boring taste. The fact that it is good and that I like and play table tennis must have nothing to do with it.

OT though, who cares about other people's favorite lists? Granted I'm not going to watch the video but caring about anonymous people in general seems like a huge waste of energy.

The problem is that some people genuinely DO like those shows. On top of that, because they're so highly praised and recommended, it's more likely that a budding anime viewer will turn to and try out those shows first, which makes it more likely that they too will recommend those shows to others.

Basically, those shows have become memetic.

How embarrassing that the dude would put Psycho Pass in a 3x3 though.
Now you're wondering if there's white text in any of my other posts.

I know, right? I feel like people who say it's boring, haven't really watched it.
I have seriously seen the whole series around 4 times, twice on my own and twice with different friends, and I have honestly enjoyed it every time.

And why should I care what some Youtuber says?
I have anime on my favorites list that I actually like, and have always liked since the day I watched them.
Why should I change my tastes, because of what some guy with a cam says?
I have no reason to care about anyone's opinion of the anime that I like, and quite frankly, anybody who believes that their opinion is worth more that anyone else's can fuck right off. xD

In other words, my Favorites list will stay unchanged, boring as it is. ^^

Digibro has seemed like an idiot before, but he does have some valid points. But screw that, I'll like what I like. If some people are to insecure and just picks "critically acclaimed" stuff to fit in the brainhive, then so be it.

everyone is obviously subjected to their own tastes or w/e, i kind of advocate that..... watch ecchi anime you scrubs... but


if a person at a buffet only pics the vegetables, the non fatty meats, the gluten free breads, etc
and doens't take any of the junk food, is it wrong to assume they're trying to eat healthy?

ill have to admit, i do agree when i see a list that is nothing but "people won't question this" anime, it does come off as people just trying to look smart or w/e you wanna call it... i mean, a few people on here have even told me their favorites don't reflect who they are as a person, and many times people will be like "omg i love this genre, its my favorite, i mostly watch those kinds of shows" then you look at their favorites and theres sometimes not even ONE anime from that genre on there... idk... looks kinda fake to me...

of course, you can like those the most, but if theres no diversity at all in your ratings or w/e thats just how it may come off


NOT THAT YOU SHOULD GIVE A SHIT..... but just saying

The original title of this thread was "the most boring taste in anime" and the first couple of comments were just lists what they thought that was as opposed to specifically talking about what was covered in the video. I added the edit for the people who didn't want to watch it.

Maybe, JUST MAYBE, it's because those animes are actually great, to the point people who liked 2-3 that might have something specific to them would actually like the rest aswell? Nah, can't be...

Even having the entire set doesn't make you an elitist, maybe in Digibro's opinion the taste is boring but as I and others already said elitism is an attitude and not limited to some anime. Your connection is not-existant.

Digibro's opinion applies only to those that choose their favourites in order to be "accepted" or "not criticized" not even to people call themselves "elitists".

Well, it's before 2000 so if somebody likes it that means he must be an elitist. However I've seen many that think ghost in the shell is for elitists.

K I never said it was direct causation. But the correlation is most defiantly there. People shiting on other people's tastes and threads of the like happen on this website, and when they try to recommend "good" anime all these titles show up . I think its relevant because it makes sense that the people who go out of there way to judge what other people like would have a favorites list that you can't criticize.

People with boring taste are those that only say 'Well, I enjoyed it'.

You can't talk to these people. There's nothing to talk about.

Even having the entire set doesn't make you an elitist, maybe in Digibro's opinion the taste is boring but as I and others already said elitism is an attitude and not limited to some anime. Your connection is not-existant.

Digibro's opinion applies only to those that choose their favourites in order to be "accepted" or "not criticized" not even to people call themselves "elitists".

But now you are digressing from the topic. There might be a correlation but still doesn't justify your connection from boring taste to elitist. Shitting on someone else's taste is not done only by those that you consider elitist. Somebody with 90% of their shows rated 10 mainly composed by mainstream anime, ecchi and hentai said that my taste is shit. Saying someone's taste is shit is always wrong but I don't see what's bad in suggesting something that is largely considered good, they might like it.

I loke Digibro, but damn. It seems like he's just salty because Mushishi is more liked than K-ON! And he comes off as posturing just like the people he's criticizing. He's so happy he has Kill la Kill in his favorites, because it has some haters and makes him look slightly more controversial. How much of a hipster can you be? I guess it's not any worse than the people who fake their lists, because I'm sure that dors happen, but he's still so cringet. Why does he care? Why does he think that just because somebody likes a well liked show that he doesn't, they must be trying to impress people?

This, the shows in your list don't make you boring. Being boring makes you boring.

You hear that anime elitist? I can't say your taste is shit but i can at least call it boring. I found it pretty funny that this info came from /a/ when the exact same stuff happens here. I agree with pretty much everything here but i would at least say for MAL katanagatari wouldn't be on that list.

Edit: Uhh I didn't make this thread so people could list there own opinions. If you don't wanna watch the video basically digibro calls out those people with the legend of the galatic heros/ghost in the shell/tatami galaxy/mushishi/ergo proxy etc on their favorites list and says its the most boring possible favorites list because it says nothing about you
jfc whos gona watch 15 minutes of guy talking >_>
that video might as well be called The Most Boring Video In Youtube

You hear that anime youtuber? I can't say your taste is shit but i can at least call it boring. I found it pretty funny that this video came from MAL when those favourites are most common on /a/'s 3x3 threads.

But i'd say you can add all anime with high amount of favourites as being part of "most boring possible favorites list because it says nothing about you".. In your particular case, OP, that means Tengan Toppa Meme Lagann, Darker Than Edgy, and that volleyball yaoi, all with 10k+ favourites.

Why does he care?

Apparently he loves trying to dissect the sort of person someone is from a 3x3 they made, and particularly trying to work out what that 3x3 says about what they value or don't value in an anime series. Hence the frustration of constantly seeing the exact same 10-20 shows on nearly every single 3x3 which presumably was the impetus for that rant.
Now you're wondering if there's white text in any of my other posts.

Over there, I'm everywhere. I know that.
