Good work, Berzerk.

If someone could recommend me an anime with a decent story and characters that aren't cheesy and over-the-top, I'd love to see it.

There aren't any.

Even the anime that are "supposed" to be mature and "supposed" to be serious can't avoid being so in extremely over-the-top and cheesy ways. Like Ghost in the Shell, mentioned earlier.

It's all bad.
There's no hope.

If you can get past the boobage, Witchblade has both.

I really don't understand video games.

Besides a few super mature video games, like Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto, what is the appeal of the stuff? The stupid cheesy as fuck humor, the cringeworthy character acting, every person who is into video games seems like a giant troll. It's almost like my little pony a little bit, when I see the video game avatars and stuff.
If you honestly thought this, I would respect your opinion and I wouldn't find it ridiculous or unfair at all.

So... Failure.

I actually do this to everyone that makes these kinds of rants. The point is that the same thing can be said about every other medium so acting like these things are exclusive to a single one is rather silly.

To be honest though most video game stories and writing are bottom tier in my opinion.

I don't think that's what he's acting like, though.

The things he's complaining about are stereotypes--but they're stereotypes for a reason. There's a reason everyone normal is creeped the fuck out by anime--because anime is weird and creepy as fuck.

The same simply cannot be said of any other medium.

When someone is saying I don't understand/like/hate/whatever [X] because it contains [Y] when [Y] is found in every other medium/genre/whatever they're singling it out despite the fact that the things they don't like about it are rife within the mediums/genres/whatever they themselves enjoy they are acting like it's exclusive to one medium/genre/whatever.

Also no Verb. Normal people don't actually give a shit about what others find enjoyable as long as they aren't hurting themselves and/or others.

Pretty sure watching anime is harmful to neurochemistry.

Ah, so it's just you being your usual holier-than-thou self. So, there's no point in trying to discuss this with you.

Never mind.

Right, yeah, like you were actually going to have any sort of discussion anyway.

Bye bye. Anime sucks.

Quote from: Verbatim on August 14, 2015, 09:46:51 PM

So why is it so hard for anime fans to accept the fact that some people will just NEVER like their shit? Why do they get so asshurt when someone says "I don't like anime"?

I thought asshurting occurred when people go further to insinuate that they don't like the people who watch it because they like it; that way they're making a personal judgment about someone else over media preference.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about mom's spaghetti, you little spaghetti? I'll have you know I graduated top of my spaghetti in my mom's spaghetti, and I've been involved in numerous spaghetti raids on my mom, and I have over 300 confirmed bowls of spaghetti. I am trained in spaghetti warfare and I'm the top spaghetti in the entire spaghetti. You are nothing to me but just another spaghetti. I will wipe you the spaghetti out with spaghetti the likes of which has never been spaghettied before on my mom's spaghetti, mark my mom's spaghetti. You think you can get away with spaghetti over the Internet? Think again, spaghetti. As we speak I am contacting my mom, she has a lot of spaghetti, and your spaghetti ass is being traced right now so you better spaghetti for the spaghetti, spaghetti. The spaghetti that wipes out the pathetic spaghetti thing you call your spaghetti. You’re fucking spaghetti, spaghetti. I can spaghetti anywhere, anytime, and I can spaghetti in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my mom's spaghetti. Not only am I extensively trained in having spaghetti, but I have access to the entire spaghetti store. and I will use it to its full spaghetti to wipe your miserable spaghetti off the face of the spaghetti, you little spaghetti. I will spaghetti all over you and you will spaghetti in it. You’re fucking spaghetti, spaghetti.
