This show single-handedly killed anime

You mean Violet Evergarden.

not even close

Lmao

I think it was Lucky Star that killed anime in the late 2000s/early 2010s.

You have your taste and I have mine. Keep your otaku cliche, you won't be seeing another production of it anyway.

Why does she sit like that?

Haruhi was fun and entertaining, unlike the boring schlock KyoAni churns out these days

literally nothing wrong with how she's sitting, stop trying to act cute.

It's like our tastes are polar opposites. At least I get to wait for extra content that I know it's coming.

What kind of person would want to wait for boring dogshit anyway?

We. Will. Never. Get. That. Dance. Again.

I'd say adults do that all the time. Maybe one day you'll understand that fun and entertainment have absolutely no correlation with characters making cliche reaction faces every few minutes and acting like walking stereotypes of some dere variation.

Haruhi is the worst show Kyoani ever made and everything about it is outdated now that the market doesn't solely pander to cis straight otaku males anymore.

Go back to your sappy melodrama

Kill yourself tranny

Everyone but the bassist

>cis

Of course.
Once perfection has been reached, why keep trying?

I can't, the OVA and movie aren't out yet.

Reminder that Hyouka was the last good show KyoAnus made
And yes insomnia's a bitch

VEG is a shit tier post-war melodrama though, only teens will swallow it. Haruhi is a fun supernatural coming-of-age that is easy to relate for young adults

Age has nothing to do with this, you know. There are plenty of older dudes that only enjoy cheap childish escapism like Haruhi, in fact Japan is filled with salarymen like that and it's no wonder why so many anime are set in japanese schools and have mostly girls in the cast.
Violet Evergarden is easily the most sincere piece of media Kyoto Animation has put out thus far, only Yamada's most recent works behaved the same way regarding their characters and plot.

>childish escapism like Haruhi
Except the show is about the not reverting to escapism?
VEG-fags are absolutely retarded.

Pretense and execution are not the same thing. You can continue pretending Haruhi isn't one of those shows that defined otaku escapism culture if you want, I won't stop you Einstein-san.

Those dumb otaku from mid 2000s were more outgoing than any autistic vegfag anyway.

Maybe her butt hurts

You seem to be implying escapism can only be appreciated without the presence of others. Ever heard of tabletop RPGs? Those were quite popular when I was younger and those were indeed pure escapism.

Escapism has more to do than the person's state of mind than the media itself. Even if we go by your logic VEG is more escapist because it's a generic feel good/bad melodrama with poor characters that have 0 reesemblance of human traits. You want good post-war media, watch some italian neorrealism instead of that trash.

>Escapism is the avoidance of unpleasant, boring, arduous, scary, or banal aspects of daily life. It can also be used as a term to define the actions people take to help relieve persistent feelings of depression or general sadness.
Violet Evergarden is by definition the opposite of escapism, you don't sit down to consume tragic media if you want to experience escapism. Please learn the meaning of words before using them, Haruhifag.

Being tragic means nothing if the execution makes you laugh instead, again, stop watching that escapist trash and watch what I recommended, if you can handle it that is.

>K-on!ani

Wanna know how I knew you were going to deflect this hard, like a child that was caught red-handed?
Nevermind, this discussion is over now that I know for certain that you're using words you don't understand.

And remember, everyone but the bassist.

As expected of the retarded vegfag complaining about escapism while watching pure escapism, classic.
