the answer is resounding 100% yes

whatever the reason may be there will always be a large contingent of people like this

i would like to think that the people who like _____ [popular thing] generally care less these days about people hating it for the sake of hating it but that's probably just me projecting, seems like there's still a lot of people who let it get to them for whatever reason too

but overall its really not something to take seriously, it's hard to avoid but ultimately who cares

personally i think the biggest reasons popular stuff gets hated on so much are 1. its another form of hive mentality (which is ironic cause a lot of people hate on popular stuff so they can seem different but they're actually just acting the same as every other person hating for that reason) 2. people are insecure and too obsessed with ratings and other dumb shit like that, which basically leads to pre-disposed mindsets before watching something (i.e. instead of just watching something and taking it for what it is, seeing a high rating beforehand and wanting to dislike it cause of that rating). i mean the rating shit being at the point where people make multiple accounts to try and affect an aggregated rating is like dude... just sign up for mars work and get your shovel

however my brain doesn't operate that way so its just a guess based on observing people's behaviour. there's also a % of people who just genuinely don't like stuff that happens to be popular. there's a couple super highly popular/rated shows i strongly dislike and i bring them up fairly often but i would never say i don't understand why other people like them, or care enough that someone else/a large group likes them to get personal with anybody about it

The anime would be SO MUCH BETTER if it didn't have random moment's of misplaced humor distracting from the seriousness of the show.

I couldn't marathon this anime without getting bored, but Vinland saga? I can't get enough.

Oh yea I agree, that made the show worse than it is. I really wish they wouldnt do that with shows like this where the MC literally lost pretty much his whole family and people are getting killed left and right, it just doesnt fit.

All in all, just respect people's opinions. You can like it, you can dislike it, but don't go bashing people for liking something. You can criticize an anime without bashing the fanbase.

I liked Kny, but it definitely is over hyped, i have no problem with people claiming its their favorite anime but i have seen way too many claim that is the best shounen anime of all time or even call it the best anime of all time and that really triggers me. Every big anime has a chunk of fans that are stupid and ignorant and thats usually what they're known for despite having normal people in in its fanbase, an anime going mainstream without getting hate is pretty much impossible

So damn true. OP can't see that what he is doing to the people who didn't like the show is the same thing he is claiming "haters" are doing to the "fans". The show is receiving an extremelly massive praise, mainly because of the animation and OST, so of course people who care about a good storytelling will try to defend the fact the show is being overrated.

"Oh but that's your opinion" Yes, the same way it's your opinion the show is a masterpiece. Don't think only because you like something, your opinion is more valid then the other person who want to provide actual criticism for the show

Like always, but the more popular an anime gets the louder it gets.
because of that some people start to hating KNY. They said "The greatest shounen series ever, episode 19 was the best of episode all time." I laughed when my friend who didn't like anime started talking about KNY. For me they are still in the early stages and haven't watched a lot of anime. Later they will realize. Just like me 3 years ago. This doesn't mean I hate KNY. I like and enjoy watching it. It's just that the experience I felt wasn't like what they said

Of course that's what elitist idiots do, hate on popular things which is very edgy if you ask me. For example I still get called an idiot and "You don't know REAL anime wryyyyyyy" because my favourite anime is Attack on Titan but basically what you need to do is ignore those morons, have your own opinion and if people don't like that then they can put a baguette up where the sun doesn't shine.

Obviously just from the rating we won't know it. But if they decide to actually post their opinion, it becomes clear if the person is just a hater, or has valid opinion.

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?

They can hate it all day long, i won't care, the anime will grow and ill get even more happy cause that = more seasons, while the haters will just keep on hatin' and i'll keep on laughing at their stupid comments.

Hating on it's fans mainly. It should become pretty relevant to hate on Kimetsu no Yaiba fans given how much drama they've stirred up about pointless shit like aged up Nezuko fan art and an adult woman cosplaying Nezuko. (Yes... it sounds dumb but they attacked her for that....)
The fandom is an absolute clown fest and is filled with toxic idiots based on my experiences.

I agree that calling it the best anime ever is just too much.

It's in my favourites, easily 10/10 for the anime, and I've enjoyed each episode, liked everything about it, and I do think it's the best one so far this year(because that's my own personal opinion), but it really isn't the best anime ever. People who say that really exaggerate.


Although, we should consider that for someone it really might be the best anime ever, even after hundreds of anime. In that case, we should respect their opinion(if they don't bash on people who don't think the same).

When i came on MAL it was all about finding animes, 2 days later i decided to make an account so that i can keep all my animes in case i lost my phone ( yes i do have a list on my phone, those animes are close to my heart and are the ones i can quickly recommend to a friend) and keep track of summer, fall,winter... animes + if they announce something like a new season. I have always rated my animes based on enjoyment and i'll never change that, i don't even watch animes under 7/10 with one exception and that is Tokyo ghoul re seaon 2, i watched it only for the story but they Fed up the rest, watching an anime under 7/10 me is more like a torture form me, so i don't watch it nor do i give it a rating .

So long as the show gets asslicked to death, yes. You obviously can't avoid haters coming in any show, but the level of open hate honestly depends on the level of open love. Look at something like Sangatsu S2 for instance, hell it's a drama show which is bound to get even more hate than KnY yet you don't really see that much hate towards it. Same situation with why shows like Code Geass and Clannad AS get lots of hate

And if you go by the claim that it isn't popular, then look at a series like Haikyuu. Really popular, but you don't see 69 threads talking about how it's the best anime in existence and whatnot

HaXXspetten said:
Not that that isn't a valid positive of course but looking at other anime over the years that end up being very trendy while they're airing, they usually come back down to earth more and more as the months and years go on after they've finished airing

That's true in many cases, but now always. For example:

Re:Zero had 8.78 score after the last episode, now it's 8.36

No Game No Life had 8.82, now it's 8.36

One Punch Man had 9.02, now it's 8.7

But it doesn't necessarily go down in every case. If an anime has a well deserved score, it won't change much
Like Mob Psycho 100 II finished with 9.00, and still has 8.92 now, after half a year.

And while the score of many anime goes down after it finishes airing, the score of KnY is only going up, for now at least.

That's because KnY literally just finished lmao. Like Owarimonogatari S2 as close to #1 when it finished airing but now is just below 9. Same with SnK P2 (although that could be more attributed to rampant FMAB fanboys and MAL mods doing nothing about it)

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.

Pretty sure most people loved it and a large portion of that people think it's a masterpiece and if I'm being honest I wouldn't mind seeing it number 1 as only demon slayer deserves to be on top of fma brotherhood objectively speaking

Demon Slayer is just okay, so why bash it? it's got blood (more than InuYasha), demons, less than stellar character designs and an average plot. Again, the show is just okay.

If you want deep and complex writing, read poetry instead of novels and expect a lot from an anime's script.

Kimetsu no Yaiba is easy to like for any pure Shounen fan, and same with Boku no Hero Academia. They keep it very simple in terms of story and dialogue, but that kind of straight forwardness works perfect for them.

How the hell would you be able to change that? People watch what they want to watch. And lets not lie to ourselves,shonen is one of if not the most popular genre and the majority of anime watchers are high school (and younger) boys. If anything,it was to be expected KnY was going to get this popular.

I though it was a good enough show and gave it an 8. Do I think it's the best thing in the last decade or AOTY? No. Do I hate it with a burning passion just because and call it utter trash?

I don't believe it's hate if you call Demon Slayer generic and overhyped because that's what it is. Demon slayer has been done before many times over just like My Hero Academia. Demon Slayer is getting all the hype while stories like Vinland Saga is barely talked about other than reaction channels leeching off it for revenue. People are blinded by superb animations and pretty colors and it's kind of annoying. So in conclusion, people critiquing people's ideas or shows isn't hate it's being a person who thinks for themselves.

KnY S1 is awesome, but i think it got a little bit overrated/overhyped. The majority of the episodes had a slow pacing, some boring fights... but it gets really good around episode 17 onwards. I think next seasons should be way more interesting. The hating on it is unnecessary BTW

Whether you like it or not, Demon Slayer has been relegated to normie status. If your curious why, it's because it's A) a mediocre shounen, B) pretty, C) heavily promoted by people who wouldn't typically watch anime.
