Yes

Depends if you think the show with the girl wetting herself in a hallway is super deep or not

>>123001289
>Do I have shit taste?
Why do you care, faggot? Just enjoy whatever shit you want.

>>123001385
So far haven't seen anything that can be thought of as deep
>>123001403
I want to know if the Chinese cartoons that I watch are good

>>123001446
Learn to decide for yourself. You're already in the middle of the fucking show, you scum.

>edgefest
I mean it wasn't terrible, but it was a little over the top in terms of exploding bodies and animal abuse.

Well, it gets progressively worse so just keep watching if you dare.

>>123002417
Fug
Hope my taste is shit enough so I can still enjoy it

I watched it, but I wanted a real conclusion so I read the manga afterwards. I enjoyed it but it was as if the author tried to make it as sad and depressing as possible.

>>123002454
>being so self deprecating you have to insult yourself every single post
anon pls, get some spirit

>>123001289
It's alright to enjoy it, but you'd be wrong to think it's good.

If you are new to anime is not that bad, once you gain taste you will feel like a faggot for ever liking it, but that's about it.

>>123001289
you are only 5 eps in.....the shit gets deep soon!

I got mixed feelings from it, and I doubt I was the only one. it was good and bad? it had good and bad things?

>>123002765
I used to love this anime when it was one of the first thing I watched... now years and countless anime series later... I fear what I would witness should I ever go back

it reminds me of how there is only a single movie of my childhood of 5 that I have never looked up rule #34 of

>>123002569
I'm new to Mongolian movies, so I'm pretty sure I don't have the best taste yet
I'm not going to say it's been deep or revolutional, but I like seeing how Nyu/Lucy acts

>>123003052

Why do people think that being new is an excuse for shit taste?

>>123003151
It is though, you only acquire taste by watching more and more, everyone start with shit taste anon, don't lie to yourself and say you didn't.

OP here
Episode 6, RoboCop is pretty cool guy

>>123003200

I didn't. You can figure out what's shit and what's not by doing a little research before you start watching it.

>Depends
As you say

>>123001289

It was a cool concept dealing with split personalities (pokemon down syndrome and murderhobo) but I swear if I hear one more fucking "mew" I'm going to shoot something.

Also invisible tentacles? Weird but interesting.

>>123003303
>being this much of a hivemind
What's the point of watching Filipino films if you don't choose your own?

Do it anon, become the next Elliot Rodger.

>>123003473
It's nyu you dumb shits

>>123001289
No.

>>123001320
>It's a series meant for entertainment which entertains people, yet it's shit.
Fcking retards.

>>123001289
Mmm in the 5 episode :fryNotSure:

It's probably the worst anime I've ever completed.

It represents all that is wrong with the medium.

I can't believe MAL and IMDB have it scored at an 8/10

>>123001289

People don't seem to realize that this series is intentionally over-the-top, melodramatic and silly. It's a lot like Twin Peaks in that regard... the campiness is part of why it's enjoyable.

>>123003565

The spelling doesn't matter. Its the principle of the matter. The sound is infuriating.

>>123003303
/a/ in a nutshell

>they removed the diapergirl from the anime
It's shit.

>>123003410
Fucking hot.

>>123003425
The split personalities and nyu shit is the worst part. They should have gone straight with the pretentiousness, gore and melodramatic stuff which is the stuff that made the show enjoyable.
Bando was the best.

>>123003200
False. You can tell Naruto is shit even if you're new to Thaiwanese Rotoscoping

>>123006498
You know what, I dont have any plans tonight. I saw that my sister's laptop still have it in the disk when I did some requested compulsary cleanup last weekend. I'll drink some good stuff and try my best to marathon it till sunrise. Stay tuned for the /blog update.

>>123001289
Yes.

>>123001320
>everyone likes it the first time
I fucking hated it. I forced myself through it really hard. One of the worst I've seen. And I love Guilty Crown, so don't try to "bandwagon" me.

>>123006656
>>123006767
You gentlemen have fine tastes
My only hope is that Arms will someday be dumb enough to try and remake it

>>123001320
eat shit pleb

>>123006498
that excuse only works if the end result is good

elfen lied is still abhorrent

>>123001289
One of the best anime made, so no.

Keep in mind

>>123001289

I enjoy it too, but i think i've only rewatched it once. Without the emotional impact fresh in your mind, it seems flat.

>>123008068
Holy complete shit taste detected.

>>123006856
>They should have gone straight with the pretentiousness, gore and melodramatic stuff

But then it'll just be 'pretentious' gore. You need a balance between hardcore moments and a kinda breathing room moments, otherwise the show will just get monotonous.

>>123011448
>emotional impact
What?
The characters are shallow as fuck, and they need to kill puppies to make the viewers feel anything, since they've already desensitized them with large amounts of cheesy gore.

>>123001289
Yes and no, it's an awful show but it can be enjoyable if you turn your brain off.

>>123008966
Is popularity just how many people saw it, or what?

>>123016176
>turn your brain off

Sort of, I don't understand the "babys first edge"/"muh deep storyline" argument people put on this. It didn't really seem like what the show was going for. For what it is I don't see how it is really as bad as people make it out to be.

>>123017554
It's really not.

It's got some tragedy which is sad, but not trying to be deep.

It's got a decent plot, not supremely original, but done well.

It's got Kill Bill-level violence, which apparently /a/ doesn't like.

It's got moe breathers and some fanservice.

8/10

I loved the manga.

The show was okay. Awful adaptation.

10/10 OST, though.

>>123006656
In all honesty, she was totally and completely irrelevant to the plot. That dumb song wasn't relevant, either.

>>123001289
The enjoyment of Elfen Lied is inversely proportional to how much anime you've watched. It can be shocking and provocative, until you've seen something that does that kind of thing better, like NGE.

The opening is GOAT.

>>123018155
The ending is pretty cool, too, even if it's just a simple pop song.

I didn't like it. I watched about 6 or so episodes and enough was enough for me. I think it's how everyone interacted with each other or maybe the pacing wasn't to my liking. The only good parts was the gore and what not, but the story felt lacking.

Holy shit, /a/.

You all are tryhard as fuck.

I thought it was good until it started reaching the end then it just became a cluster fuck of shit fuck

>>123001289
I watched it 4-5 times in 2003 or so and loved it every single time. Who cares what a collective of anomynous users on a chinese cartoon image board thinks about your taste.

>>123018077
>NGE
Then there's this faggot.

This whole gateway anime thing is shit. I think people who say this are projecting their own experience onto others.

Which all makes sense when you realize that these are 2deep evafags and haven't moved past that phase yet, either.

1/10 bait, at least you tried

>>123001289
I saw it once some time back, and I liked it, point of any show is to entertain, it did the work just fine.

>>123003303
Or by not having shit taste, you like what you like, but I usually can pick few things from any "art form".

Well

Cept for those shit tier dialogues

>Do I have shit taste?
If have to ask then you don't even know what taste is to begin with.

That anime is so bad its good. Like its so over the top that its worth watching just for that. And the characters are so autistic its fucking hilarious at times.

Its a bad anime but a good watch.

>>123020326
honestly how is this bait? i legitimately thought it was 10/10 i cried like a bitch

>>123003410
But Depends are awful diapers.

>>123018063
>the reason for the title
>irrelevant

>>123020709
if you thought it was good, then you dont need to ask, therefore its a bait.

This is a good show because the cousin/childhood friend wins.

>>123020709
Got your back OP.

>>123021126
The title itself was irrelevant, though. You could even say it was forced.

The "Elfen Lied is shiiiiiiiet guise" meme is still alive? wow

>>123021505
The song was relevant to the themes of the story.

>>123018034
>10/10 OST, though.
But Brynhildr in the Skrillex has better soundtrack

>>123001289
trust me and fucking stop, i was the same as you a few years ago
it's pretty cool on the surface but nothing will fucking pay off
nothing will get me those hours back

Literally no one in this thread even knows what the VECTORCRAFT is.

Elfen Lied isn't shit (and isn't even decent).

Fitting in : The thread

>>123024129
Aren't you tired of samefagging your shitty thread OP? You're one sad fuck on top of having horrid taste.
