I HATE ANIME. FUCK ANIME.

Posted by GodsSentWarrior Jan. 13, 2008 @ 8:13 PM EST

If you make a good point against Anime, I will include it

I HATE ANIME.
-With all it's weaboo faggots,
-It's poorly drawn animation,
-There also seems to exist a rule in the Unwritten Code of Otakudom denouncing everything Western and championing everything Japanese is an essential part of being an anime fan
-THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME PLOT, SOME McFAGGOT IS "THE ONE"
-The kids who like it are all fucking freaks FACT,
-It's shitty voice actors,
-The costumes people wear,
-The sad fact that the viewers want to be Asian and cant be proud of what they are,
-Are the Japanese gay? Why must their young boys look like girls and their girls boys?
-The video games that spawn from it. Dear GOD.

All Anime fans are:
Conceited, anal-retentive, silly, thickheaded, ignorant, inane and elitist. It is true that every human being displays these traits at some point in their lives, but most anime fans seem to have gotten an extra helping of them. Most of the time, I find them simply naive, grating, and irritating when they begin to discuss their preferred medium of entertainment. Don't tell them its a cartoon. They may pretend to make a >.< fucking face.

They all follow the same structure:
-A hero with special powers (or hidden powers).
-A bitch that follows him around, and they both inwardly like each other.
-Long, drawn out "thought" frames, where they pan the camera slightly and we hear the character's thoughts (this, by the way, is to save money).
-About ten episodes of climactic build up; it takes absolutely forever for anything to be accomplished
-The usual unoriginal drawing style (eyes, lots of exaggeration)
Thanks to deafeningsilence5 for these points

I'm truly sorry for you in dating her sir.

Soon anime will die, and the freaks will be free of their bonds.

And go play dungeons and dragons or some shit.

Huuur, ok a majority suck, suck more than a blackhole. Though don't be so bias, like everything in this friggin universe there are always good, and bad aspects of everything. Well unless of course you have never really found a good anime than I see what you did there.
Eh either way I just watch the hentai, not so bad, and a couple of original animes. Also it's mostly over the sea stuff, the Japanese are strange xenophobic bastards who enjoy their way of life, and compared to the way they think its just fuking weird.

Jan. 15, 2008 | 11:16 PM GodsSentWarrior responds:

Pretty wise for a 14 year old, yes indeed.

I agree with you, but I have NOT found an anime I liked, and I'm not just saying that;
I SWEAR to you, I have not found ONE.

I just don't like any. They disgust me.

I only like 1 anime in existence, and it matches none of the above criteria. Nearly every mainstream anime is like that though, but it's probably not a good generalization about all of it.
So yeah, opinions and shit.


Nov. 10, 2008 | 2:34 AM Sawdust says:

I love anime, but your rants on the fans and crap anime is seriously true.

I mean, I only like a few series out of the hundreds out there.

But that's a piss small number, there's like 10-20 series, that's it. And I can't even go somewhere like an anime convention because of all the weeaboos cosplaying there.

Ugh. Fuck Naruto and what it created.

Dec. 25, 2008 | 6:43 PM JohnnyWang says:

I sent you a PM on this, but I'll post my main point here for posterity, and so that other people see it too.

Your rant is based on stereotypes and ignorance over the medium. You obviously haven't watched all that much anime, and most, if not all of it is stuff like Naruto and Bleach, that are Shonen "boys anime", namely, targetted for kids.

You have the right to not like anime, but spouting ignrant idiotic opinions and stating them as facts is just plain stupid.


Sep. 15, 2009 | 3:44 PM mtri says:

I'm with ya on this one.


Sep. 15, 2009 | 5:08 PM N-Antichrist says:

So basically, you hate one part of one media-form. Ahh, to be young and shallow again.

I used to hate American TV until I discovered stuff like The Wire. now I can see that as a whole, American TV is FUCKING AWESOME when applied in a particular way - when its budget and talent is applied to realism, interesting subjects in a solid cogent narrative and a willingness to pull no punches. Or Historical drama, or other semi-intellectual projects.

Same thing applies to anime - the reason being it is an expansive story-telling form much akin to Live Action, the different being it's animated in 2D (which leads to large quantities of seperate shows, but with less actual time in them). For every shitty show like Naruto and Yu-Gi-Oh, you have Ergo Proxy, Paranoia Agent, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Ghost Hound - genuine TV shows that deal with Philosophy, Politics, Psychology, Neurology, Mysticism etc. in a more in-depth way. If you were the average Weeaboo, you would probably call such shows "boring".

You do not speak as an experienced watcher of anime, you only speak as someone who has seen a horrendously small section of it at face value and made the decision to dislike it. Your audience consists of people who have done the exact same as you or knew nothing beforehand anyway. So what the hell is the point in making such lists of empty bile when all it amounts to is a big circlejerk of angry impulsive rhetoric - anyone with the ability to be swayed one way or the other about "anime" would mark you as immature and a bad campaigner, if they had any sense.

I mean hell, you have a kiddy show about ninjas as your trump card - you may as well make a post hating humanity and put a picture of Hitler there because you never studied Ghandi or any other altruistic figures of human history.

Plus, you didn't like Cowboy Bebop? What the hell, man?


Sep. 15, 2009 | 6:47 PM aviator-omega says:

Dude a jew couldn't hate a nazi more than you hate this haha. Unfortunately I do watch anime from time to time and I do enjoy it. I guess the part I enjoy most, or rather the only part is the hilarious facial expressions. If people could make those faces in reality, my day would be a lot more exciting. Although for an anime hater you sure know alot about it. My guess is you got sucked into this at some point in time then realized it was destroying your life in which case congratulations.

Sep. 15, 2009 | 7:19 PM RexWil says:

Whats wrong with you? Grouping all anime fans together and saying they are all the same, saying all anime is the same, and giving them such negative attributes. Thats racism but towards a subject. You can keep your opinion on anime and leave fans alone you know, you dont need to go around spreading more hate. What does this page accomplish other than letting every one know you are a psycho who thinks GOD sent him to hate anime? =/

Sep. 16, 2009 | 10:13 PM GrayFox679 says:

Normally, I would go into some kind of rant on how you're really just focusing on the shonen style of anime and manga, but I won't go that far beyond a few key comments:

- A good deal of anime and manga do not follow the ridiculous standard of garbage churned out as a copy of Dragon Ball Z or most things that have been on Adult Swim in the past few years. You could take a look at Cowboy Bebop, Slayers, Fooly Cooly, or even Fullmetal Alchemist. Most of those titles are recognized as classics for a reason. In twenty years, practically no one will remember stupid shit like Code Geass or Death Note.

- The industry of anime HAS become bloated in recent years. It's become more about pleasing the young male demographic than creating a deep storyline for most; however, the deeper series AREstill there.

- Most anime series take so long to get anywhere because they are based on a manga that was created in a weekly format. Having to meet deadlines does not encourage a writer to just churn out all of his best ideas at once. Then again, there are shorter bits of anime to grasp your attention only for a few episodes and then leave you to wander (i.e. Afro Samurai, FLCL).

- Evangelion. Let me tell you about it. The god damned stupid series is popular for a REASON, and that reason is that it appeals to the sense of identity that is constantly a problem for Japanese youths. You hear a lot of stories about shut-ins killing themselves, a lot of them anime fans (mainly in Japan). Many series like this are very popular because they appeal to men and women who have a hard time becoming a functioning part of society.

- I don't see nearly as many western series lasting as long as most anime. Batman? Batman's had more facelifts than Joan Rivers and Michael Jackson combined. Superman? I guess he was popular for a while, but that got shitcanned, too. Most modern western series died out in the late 90's because they couldn't cope with a changing attitude of youth in America. Because anime is constantly changing, there is always some facet of it that will appeal to teenagers. As much as I dislike Naruto and other ridiculous examples of animation, they have far outshone anything that Marvel or DC has provided in the televised realm.

- Posting an audio rant by a man who is a known and declared furry doesn't really help your case against another subculture. Not that I have anything against furries, but he comes off as rather unstable.

Regardless, you're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine.

Anti-sign, I guess?
