Even I do it sometimes.(lol) And Gurren Laggan is a lot of cringe. Atleast a dozen people have asked me "You don't find colliding galaxies amazing?? You have bad taste!!1!." I mean, do they even know what they're saying? Lmao, it's all about execution, presentation , theme, style, that makes all the difference. You can have another anime use the exact same formula, but have the setting , style, execution wrong and it'd turns into total cringe. Also you probably did not even know that most of those cliche/ exaggerated scene on some of those anime are INTENDED, and used as a mean/ style to convey something that only anime can achieve. You think people who produce them didn't know those are so exaggerated and out of their mind? They intentionally chose that style. Just because an anime use a cliche line does not automatically make all the good things about it bad. Also just because you hate an anime doesn't make an anime bad either. We're not black and white paper. Like seriously only MAL people will go to that extreme and HATE on everything about an anime if they use certain trope and ignore everything good about an anime and then tell people they have shit taste. They always look at thing in one dimensional way. If there's one part they hate about an anime, they'd ignore every other aspects of the show and go on hating everything about it and use it to justify that people who like that anime have shit taste. But I knew talking to people here is like shouting to a wall, so I'm not going to bother debating anymore. |

| I genuinely cringe during the stupid romcom anime scenes where a girl slaps a guy for an accident, or an """accident""". There are points where I've stopped an anime because of it. Not dropped, but give a good pause. |

But I knew talking to people here is like shouting to a wall, so I'm not going to bother debating anymore. Yup, I mentioned people like you. And if you haven't read it, I wrote about all the good things(according to me) in my next comment. I don't blindly hate it. I just think it's mediocre. But no, people want me to like it, because they do. Because "it's intended". And this is my fault that I don't get it. Sorry mate, I prefer a story that is realistic in the world it's taking place in, and multidimensional characters who I may think as real people. I prefer immersive stories. And if all the things are intended, maybe you can say the same about a similar anime, Fairy tail. After all we don't know what goes through creators' mind while they make the story. So what audience feeds is what we get from it.(I don't mean it, just a joke) And this is rated above Fate Zero and Parasyte, which are two of the most philosophical stories in any medium. Yeah....... I can agree on something with you, people on MAL just are that way. |
Anime was it's best 20000 years ago, when cavemen drew art with real depth. Modern anime is all garbage. I miss great old days of anime. |
mono_mer said: "Don't believe yourself. Believe in me that believes in you." -Kamina You just don't mesh up optimistic words together and call it a motivational quote. This was definitely very cringey. You obviously missed the entire point, then. The point being that "Don't believe in yourself; believe in me, who believes in you" is a statement that doesn't make much sense logically, but makes perfect sense emotionally. It's a show you watch with your heart, not with your head. The conflicts are about emotion, not about logic. This is Gurren Lagann in a nutshell. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |

Piercing the skies with power of will and shit. But the English translation or the phrasing is still cringe. |

Lmao thank you, this completely describes my opinion on Gurren Lagann. It's not supposed to be a realistic show, it's supposed to be something you connect emotionally to. Ofc enjoyment is subjective, so if someone didn't enjoy the show, I have no qualms, but people making arguments about it being unrealistic and over the top in order to justify their dislike for it don't hold that much validity to their opinion in my mind. |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| the translator's note: moo means moo |
| "Can we be friends?" - Mary Sue protagonist from Symphogear to sociopathic maniac, who murdered 100k innocent people, children even, for simple amusement and had great fun doing so. |

_271032 said: Gator said: For example phrases of those motivators like: "I was going to show you all my power if you showed me yours, now your friends will suffer it."Well... you took the words out of my mouth. This is literally the first thing that came to mind when I read the thread title, so I have nothing else to add. For example? Well, maybe because of my age, Sjonen anime generally do not interest me or their phrases. (Except for idol anime). lol Hmm I don't remember them saying it like that, but I guess the whole "This isn't even my final form" could be considered cringy lol |
| Mars of Destruction, when the doctor pronounced her as dead. I cringed and laughed way too hard on that one. |
| "Do you know why snow is white? Because it forgot what colour it was" from C.C in Code Geass. What does that even mean? |
  |
| "I cannot tell you" -Decim, every 2 minutes. Most useless character I've ever seen. Also everytime a narrator states the absolute obvious. Worst example are in Okami-san and her companions and Hunter x Hunter. |
| Probably more than half the script for Mermaid Melody. And that’s why it’s so good! |
  |
He's not useless. His obligation is not to tell the dead about their past. As an arbiter he must only observe them in order to judge them. Every single line from Diabolik Lovers sounds like pure poetry: "Crying won't help you, Little Bitch." (beautiful), "Please let me taste you again.", (still a better love story than ,,Twilight"), ,,You're as flat as a pancake"(why don't I have the ability to come up with such incredible phrases -_-) |
 I'm not lying.
I'd never lie.....
Perhaps |
| "as expected of person x" "It can't be helped" |
simokke said: He's not useless. His obligation is not to tell the dead about their past. As an arbiter he must only observe them in order to judge them. The cringy part is that he actually suck at judging people. Making him says things like that is really unnecessary and annoying. It just doesn't help anyone including himself. |

| "It's not like I'm doing this for you" "It's not like I like you or anything" "It's not like that..." And honestly most attempts at writing a love interest that is interested in mc but needs to hide blushy blushy makes me want to die both on the inside and on the outside. |

ParagonMind said: Title is self explanatory. I want to know what, you believe, is the cringiest line you've ever heard. For me, it's without a doubt from the Strike the Blood series. For those who've watched it, you should know exactly which phrase I'm referencing. Protagonist - "From now on, this is my fight!" Female Protagonist - "No senpai. It's our fight!" ***dies inside from the cringe Agree with this line. Strike the Blood has the most cringe line and they keep repeating it. |
| So get this, basically every single line in My Hero. Makes me cringe and don't know how y'all watch that garbage |
| So get this, basically every single line in My Hero. Makes me cringe and don't know how y'all watch that garbage |
| lmao like the entire first episode of kill la kill, most cliche and cringy lines used in the most unoriginal way |
 |
MellowStar said: Or maybe something like:"If you kill him/her/them,then you're no better than him/her/them!" in steins gate when suzu is about to kill the professor and then daru tell her : "if you kill him, you're just like him" that one line ruinned my mood |
| i honestly can't think of anything other than weird yagami yato audios |
| all of my waifus are dead |
| Wow a lot of popular anime getting roasted on this thread. By the way the supreme cringe to me is Orihime from Bleach saying Kurosaki-kun over and over and over again, that got really annoying. That line from Strike The Blood was so cringe that i grew to love it lmao it doesn't even bother me anymore |
  |
| "This one's totally gone." the doctor from Mars of Destruction, talking about the girl whose head was completely blown off like that wasn't obvious lmao |
 |
ParagonMind said: Protagonist - "From now on, this is my fight!" Female Protagonist - "No senpai. It's our fight!" ***dies inside from the cringe Yeah... Strike the Blood was cringe. I guess "I am the bone of my sword" from Archer in Fate is what I find cringy... I think it's because they try to say it in English in a serious tone that I find it cringe. |
 |
| All Gintama quotes from serious arcs, I don't wanna ugly this thread with those though. Recently I heard about this and it's damn cringy: Gihren Zabi: my little brother died! Why!!! Blondie jackass: he was a spoiled brat! No you traitor ass! he died because you betrayed him. What a lousy atempt to sound smart. Man, Garma was cool, he did not deserve that |

Meusnier said: @Gar_Logan @Attackonfiller Most of the dialogues were quite bad, but this one deserves a special mention: "Iraira shite, seiri ka?" Yikes... hard to forget that one. Definitely not badass like it's played out to be lol |
 |
| This is not a specific phrase... But whenever characters describe someone's else's power /how amazing/fast they are whenever said character is fighting /etc (how they sadly do it in fairy tail wayyy too much and in some other series as well) |
"You think your power has limits, I say it's limitless." |
