How the mighty have fallen

>only the
the only*

It was only good in the sense that it was fun to watch while airing due to decisions made by KyoAni at the time. That is, airing the first season out of order and EE in season 2. Watching it outside of that context, however, it's clear that it doesn't hold up as a work by itself. KyoAni understood this, and that's why they had to use tricks in order to make it more engaging; the talking points were really about their production decisions rather than the content of the show itself.

The movie was good, though. That's the peak of the series. The first season was mediocre and the second a disaster.

Has a series that just kinda stopped part way through ever maintained long-term relevance? I think that people have a limit of about seven years (seems to be a commonly agreed upon length of time for old things to fade from memory and become fresh again, and it sounds about right here, too) for how long they can remained hyped about the continuation of an unfinished product. Add the notorious "what the fuck were they thinking" abomination that was S2 to the mix, and it was bound to squander its status as one of the defining anime of the 2000s.

Why would people continue to stay obsessed with a good but forgotten show 13 years after it came out? That's just how things work and that's perfectly fine.
I'd say it's even worse, this case is one word being forced by either a single salesfag or a small salesfag circlejerk. Not even the native isekai shit is this retarded.

What is wrong with new terms, useful terms? Time flop actually makes sense unlike boomer shit. Nip otaku make new terms all the time and that's why I am comfortable discussing shit in nip.

Your shitty buzzword is never gonna catch up

>useful terms
????

Useful terms (like "circlejerk", "sekrit club", "newfag") propagate naturally without needing to be forced and whiteknighted. People naturally use them because they describe something that actually needs described, in a way that's natural, self-explanatory, and if not actually compelling, then at the very-least, tolerable.

Your forced meme is none of the above. Please fuck off with it.

>Time flop actually makes sense
Yeah, maybe for forever butthurt retards that want to shit on anime that had decent sales and got laughed out of it's thread because they tried to shitpost about it being a flop.

Go back to TVTropes.

Eveyone that likes it has said all they have to say about it.
Everyone who hates it is still seething, not surprising really.

It no longer has a massive hype train where you have to like it or else so people are forming their own opinions.

It just pisses off salesfags like native isekai pisses off Goblin Slayer fans.
Fuck off back to rеddit.

See also AoT, contrast BnHA. The reason Hero Academia is doing so well is an aggressive schedule of new content, alongside clear and definite communication of the release schedule. By greenlighting the next season early enough to announce it in an episode of the airing season, the show is always either airing or going-to-be-airing, which keeps it relevant the whole time.

Haruhi killed itself with its aggressive hiatuses, radio silence, and cryptic announcements that turned out to be shitty spinoffs. Because they never just said "X just finished, but Y will be out on Z", the show spent huge periods being considered dead and buried.

There are obvious parallels in AoT's release schedule and marketing: prestigious studios, long hiatuses, no announcements, cryptic marketing, anticlimactic chibi spinoff shows no-one cares about. It's fascinating watching the same trainwreck play out again.

>instead of saying "this work was popular back in the day but it's forgotten and regarded as trash these days" i give you a neat word "time flop"
>no, fuck off.

The problem is you are actively against using this term for no fucking reason. Just use it if you think it is useful rather than acting like a stubborn retard.

The word isn't neat, because it is a compound using the term 'flop', which connotes failure. Saying something was successful but not memorable is not the same as insinuating that it turned into a flop over time.

Essentially your term purposefully adds a more negative implication. subtly promoting shows as a failure just because they have not maintained a presence in community consciousness, even if they were at their peak commercially and culturally successful.

>Yea Forums doesn't care
>Yea Forums still watches the movie annually
Does not compute.

Madoka is even "deader" in terms of new content, yet it's getting daily threads, often hitting bump limit. I too once was a dumb teen who thought Haruhi's the best thing ever, but let's face it - Haruhi never was that good.

Aya Hirano ruined everything.

Yeah, the negative connotation is to account for the change in reputation of the work.

Stop this meme. We all know that's not the main reason.

As opposed to the lazy piece of shit author that dropped the series completely until he ran out of money and realized he can't live without the weebbucks?

I still remember the birth of "based and redpilled" on one shitposting Yea Forums thread. You guys were against it but slowly accepted it after other boards and reddit began to use it.

That shit still gets deleted here.

And again, you're using flop, which indicates failure. A show which was successful but which people don't talk about very often after 10 years does not somehow retroactively turn into a failure. It also does not mean the perception of the work has changed, just because people no longer wish to engage with it. Again, you are using a label which is consciously designed to deride particular works despite their success, probably because you just don't like them.

>A show which was successful but which people don't talk about very often after 10 years does not somehow retroactively turn into a failure.
So it indeed failed the test of time. For example, how haruhi is not liked these days.

>how haruhi is not liked these days.
I can also pull shit out of my ass, that doesn't make it true.

>reddit steals a meme that is inherently mocking reddit
pottery

Yea Forums is completely dead at this point.
Just look at the fucking threads.
Even for anime I enjoy, the threads are just garbage.
From time to time there are some good threads, but I don't feel like wading through shit anymore to get to it.

You can thank the mods.

you mean the russian dub, because that one's actually based

It just dropped off the radar of an anime fandom that mostly obsesses over either new shows or pre-2000 shows. And I mean really, nothing super popular stays super popular forever. Interest always wanes. For some it waxes again, only to wane again as well after a while.

The only thing that made it interesting were the out of order episodes in the first season and Endless 8 in the second season. Outside of those, there was nothing really good/memorable about the writing, characters, plot, style, etc. When someone remembers the series, they remember how it tried to be quirky and did weird stuff with the episodes.

99% of Yea Forums came after 2011

I still use the amazing art books I purchased in Nippon as 'stress relief' so that has to count for something, right?
This and Kannagi are my all-time faves--Tsuruya is just SO damn perfect...

Sad but true; I can tell when it seems that most people here have Reddit-tier taste

Gotta be contrarian somehow
