Are you 12?

...

absolutely. and i had never even heard of death lullaby until recently. i guess after i watched midori i just assumed it was a one-off thing and there was no reason to look at the guy's other works because i'm an idiot. anyway i looked more into him and it looks like he directed a tv show as well. have you seen it? it seems pretty suspect to me.

I mean MHA, AOTA and Saiki are pretty average and at least to me can only be enjoyable if you only started watching anime recently

Silence? Thought so, troll. You have no idea what you're even talking about. Fuck off.

I have seen it! I honestly thought it was pretty good. Gave it like a 7. I've been fascinated in Harada for years now - Midori is easily one of my favorite movies of all time.

What's your MAL or AniList?

>What's your MAL or AniList?
Can you please just fuck off to there?

Funny thing that I could only truly appreciate the shows you mentioned (except AoT that I liked from the moment it aired) just recently. Most people don't see anything special in MHA although it's one of the best written shonens. And Saiki is a comedy, you don't force your sense of humor on other people. For me, Saiki is condensed Gintama.
AoT is always overcritised for no reason.

>MHA although it's one of the best written shonens.
I agree, but that's not saying much. Shounen writing is generally way below average.

>Saiki is condensed Gintama
I don't like either ... so ... I guess that's true.

>AoT is always overcritised for no reason.
Indeed. But it also is incredibly bland. Not an anime or manga that could ever come anywhere close to being a favourite of mine.

I think it's more that AoT and MHA are artistically dry and very boring, especially to those that have watched many anime. That's usually the problem with entry level shounen stuff, they lack flair or any evocative audiovisual direction.

oh cool i'll have to check that out too

Sorry if I sounded like condescending asshole. And good on you for giving me level headed response. Still the one I have major problem is AoT. It is late where I am so if this thread stays tomorrow I will say some of my thoughts.

Sorry I don't understand your assumption. Have fun eating that shit up.

>artistically dry and very boring

Not that guy and I'm no vehement defender of SnK, but come on.
sakugabooru.com/post/show/60233

I'm glad you enjoyed trapeze. It is a fun show. The old manager episode was touching

Give me examples of well written non-shonen action series

Solid action sequence, but it doesn't make me feel anything. I've seen 2 seasons of AoT and it's just really dry.

You're dry inside. I'm not joking. You can't relate to soldiers at all. Maybe you need some high school setting to be immersed

I heard someone else (I forget who) sum up AoT quite accurately as the anime equivalent of The Walking Dead. As in, it's a show that got alot of normies into anime and it's competent enough to be enjoyable if you don't have experience with anything else.

Depends on your definition of shounen I guess. It's a demographic, in the end.
Many things are well written, all in their own different ways, of course. I do consider the things on my 3x3 well written, for example. And the least "shounen" of them must be: Urotsukidouji, Sailor Moon, Yotsuba, Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou.
Like I said, all written very differently, but way better than your "average shounen".
The "most shounen things" on my 3x3 are HxH, Tsugumomo and Houshin Engi. And they are highly atypical for that "genre".

>equivalent of The Walking Dead.
>got alot of normies into anime
What did The Walking Dead get "normies" into? Zombie films? Horror? I don't think it did.

>Sailor moon is written better than any shonen
What the fuck

>doesn't make me feel anything
Are you okay user? Also I'm not sure why you're criticizing solely based on visuals.

>alot
>normies

Yeah, listen to some idiots more. I have 10+ years experience in anime, and read fucking lot of epic fantasy. Still love AoT

>it's competent enough to be enjoyable if you don't have experience with anything else
I feel bad if you think you can't enjoy a decent anime just because it is entry level and extremely popular.

So you haven't watched it. Figures.

Am I the only one with extremely basic tastes in anime?

Dragon Ball Z
Kill la Kill
K-on
Attack on Titan
Future Diary
Full Metal Alchemist
KonoSuba
Kokoro Connect

Those are my top nine. I’m afraid that the ones after that aren’t any less basic.

I didn't say I didn't enjoy it. It's just not my favourite by a long shot.

How old are you? Not trying to be rude here.

No, fuck those idiots. They're just jaded and bored of everything. They are just trying to be cool and show that they're experienced ANIMU WATCHERS by making 3x3 with shit they don't even love that much.

Everything you listed is average at fucking best (except HxH), what the hell

22.

The story had an initial appeal that wore off and the characters ended up being flat, which was made worse by the awful pacing. The visual direction as already stated was just dry and didn't keep me invested in what was going on, the soundtrack being typical Sawano stuff that gets tiresome after the first time. It's very blockbuster hollywood stuff that doesn't do anything for me personally, at least not anymore. Not that there's anything wrong with enjoying it, but it being in anyone's top 9 after watching 1000s of anime is a bit odd.

Have you ever considered that some people genuinely like those things and that more mainstream stuff just isn't to their taste?

Not saying posturing doesn't exist, but some classics are considered classics for a reason.

I know people with shittier taste. At least you're not an HxH fan.

That was my first impression, but I’m not trying to label them as haters. Maybe there is something I’m not getting. I’m trying to enjoy anime even more than I already do and if they have a perspective that I lack, I’d like to find it.

...

>Yotsuba
>average at fucking best
Way to go, shithead. What more can you say to discredit your opinion?

Not my raste at all, but that's okay.
Make an actual 3x3 if you're serious about them.

Well it's kinda sad that I'm being written off like that, but I'm just trying to express why some anime aren't as enjoyable after you've seen a bunch of them.

FUCK YOUR OPINION!!! The thread. Anime banter is so pointless.

I listed them to give him an idea of where I was coming from. Of course they are subjective, this is all from my perspective. Though to be honest, I don't frequent 3x3 threads.

Ya banter is about all I live for now

Well, I started watching anime for action fantasy genre (there is severe lack of it in west). I dropped around 1000 anime titles after 1 or 2 episodes so I completed only around 250 during 10 years of watching. I guess, I can't even watch your regular anime. But I genuinely loved AoT, although it's not in my favorites list.

>I’m not going to put effort into something that I know will get flamed hard.
Don't worry about that. We all get shit on in here, no matter how entry-level, unusual, pretentious or whatever our tastes are. That's what happens in here. Doesn't invalidate your opinion, nor the fun that making 3x3 is.

Imagine being able to rewatch all your favorite anime with your memory of them being erased? I’d have such a good time. My favorite 20ish anime are the only ones that I got emotionally vested into. My heart and emotions would be in for a wild ride.

>action fantasy genre
>there is severe lack of it in west
What "west" are you talking about?

Imagine if you don't like them and don't even recognize them as your favorites after memory erasing anymore

Movies - they only make fantasy for children
Books - a lot of them are super cliched
Tv series - small budget, so only urban fantasy at best

The character's are not flat and there is a good amount of development for many of the characters.
>Which was made worse by the awful pacing
The pacing is fine and how does that fucking correlate with the characters?
>The visual direction as already stated was dry and didn't keep me invested
Okay I'll give you season 3 part 2, but the visuals are far from the worse, blaming the visuals of all things in snk is basically nitpicking.
>It's very blockbuster hollywood stuff
No? It's production feels like that of any other show. God I hope this is pasta.

>Imagine being able to rewatch all your favorite anime with your memory of them being erased?
That'd be good. But imagine rewatching them without your memory being erased. You'd actually be able to expand your views and perspectives on them!

>only make fantasy for children
>super cliched
>small budget
And that's not the same for fantasy anime?

No, fuck you
>only make fantasy for children
HxH, Berserk, etc.
>super cliched
Anime shows at least trying to create different and unique worlds, while in books there are still only elves and dark lords for the most part
>small budget
Even a small budget show can create a fantasy world (Gunjou no Magmell), while it's impossible in TV - the best result you'd get would be worse than Berserk 2016

...

Well done outing yourself.

>HxH
I thought we were talking about "fantasy" here. I don't think many would class HxH as fantasy.

>in books there are still only elves and dark lords for the most part
Just like in 90% of fantasy anime.

>Even a small budget show can create a fantasy world, while it's impossible in TV
Why would it be impossible to create a fantasy world "in TV" with a small budget? Worldbuilding doesn't depend on budget all that much.

Your personal circumstances and age at the time on which you first consume media is an important factor to your enjoyment of it. There's a bunch of stuff I liked as a kid that I wouldn't give a second thought now

Why are you posting fucking characters instead of posters (so these shows would be easier to recognize). Are you that lonely that you need the presence of you favorite characters even in theads like 3x3?

I rewatched Metropolis today. Not even a favourite of mine yet I was able to enjoy myself quite a bit. Once you've developed a certain level of appreciation for art and visuals in general (given how Metropolis was made by BADHOUSE you certainly won't rewatch it for animation) you can find enjoyment in rewatching a lot of works.

Because it's not about how easy to recognize it is. It's about variety. And themed 3x3 have been a thing for a long time. And, really, if you've seen an anime, you should also recognize it from its main characters.
And before you complain about some characters not being main characters: If you frequent these threads regularly, you know what shows those are from.

The guy who directed Mononoke also made a Kitaro adaptation with a very similar art style. It's only 11 episodes.

Oh, actually it wasn't the same guy. I just assumed it was because of the visual similarities and them both being Toei. He did do the OP and ED though.

>explain the 4/8
Just me being generous. Two full points for Utena and Penguinsrum. Close to a full point for Houseki no Kuni. The remaining point (and some fraction) is somewhere between Mushishi, Evergarden and Mononoke. (Like I said, I'm being very generous here.)
Definitely no points for either Full Metal Alchemist or Madoka.

that's some really bizarre taste honestly. my top two are mushishi and mononoke, hands down. I normally see disliking Madoka as a decent litmus for having shit taste, but you seem to appreciate Ikuhara's work so I'll respect your takes.

uh, yeah. textbook in fact.

Pretty ironic how you manage to sound like the biggest cuck and least manly person walking the earth right now. Even a trap will come off as more manly than you.

>I normally see disliking Madoka as a decent litmus for having shit taste, but you seem to appreciate Ikuhara's work so I'll respect your takes.
>shit taste
I think you misspelled "reached maturity".

Becasue you said so?

Well, tastes differ. And it's not as if I really disliked anything (well, FMA, somewhat). But Madoka just doesn't stand out postitively for anything it does. Yes, it's relatively daring, but that's it.
I can see why you'd like Mushishi and Mononoke, but neither is my cup of tea. I'd usually not give a point for either, but the combination made me consider giving them half a point each.

Why?

appreciating Madoka is "immature", huh. Which one's your board?

There's three manga 3x3 in there. At least tell me which one you want me to elaborate on. I won't go through every single one of them.

Dragon Ball, partially: Considered giving half a point for it, but it's Z and not the original and besides its historical impact, it hasn't much going for it.
Ping Pong, partially: Not a fan of sports manga. Not a fan of Yuasa's anime adaptation either.
One Piece, dropped about 200 chapters in. Not much to say about that one other than that I lost hope for it when I noticed how much it repeated its formula all the time.

Not doing anything is better than deliberately shitting up the thread. How many of the 3x3 in here have you rated? You could do that.
