Hello! Kiniro Mosaic
I want the angry person back.
>>133755478
I'm still here dude.
SNAFU.
>>133755775
I said kiniro but my man. Pleiades was up there.
>>133755318
Not this shit thread again
What's the point of making this thread every day of the week if you're going to get the same answer every time?
>>133755813
it's not as much "best show" as it is "the only show that didn't dissapoint to some degree"
I'm gonna be pleb. My AOTY is either OPM or Ushio.
>>133755318
If you wanted to see people's AOTY just make a poll. Why bother with a shitposting magnet of a thread?
>>133755318
This one right here.

Quality magnet.
>>133755318
NNB for SoL
Hibikek for drama
Symphogear GX for music
UBW for action
>>133755318
NNBR
NNB
Osomatsu-san for me
>>133755824
Last time NNB won AOTY they called for a recount many, many times.
OPM
Nobody remembers the best show...
Winter: Fafner
Spring: UBW
Summer: Prison School
Fall: OPM or Gundam
Soukyuu no Fafner: Dead Aggressor -Exodus-FOLLOW ME
>>133756253
who is that girl anyway?
>>133755318
Kaitou Joker, Tribe Cool Crew or Shin Atashinchi.
NNB
I'm sorry, /a/, but Single Hit Guy for me.
>>133755318
Pleiades
>>133756503
The inferior sister.
Gintama°
>>133756503
I think it's from Kiss x Sis
>>133755318
Overlord so far, but OPM is starting to top it imo.
>>133756503
Fork-chan's cousin desu senpaitachi
Keit-ai for me.
>>133756594
I'd say this but it's been going for ages.
I think one punch man this year.
I can't pick between Houkago no Pleiades and NNB
Probably Pleiades since it's an original
Haikyuu is pretty solid.
Hibikek and Seraph of the End are/were pretty good as well.
Pretty much everything else this year has been shit to be completely honest with you. There's some so so shit like OPM but the majority was honest to Goodness shit. Much more so than the the last 12 or so seasons before this year.
>>133756253
>>133756779
And the smug cat is their pet.
>NNB
Stop it you retards
>>133756975
Hibikek was fucking trash dude. The threads were fun but that was it.
>>133755318
ONE PUNCH MAN
You know it's true.
Where my Ninjas at
>>133757029
>tripfag
Stop it you retard, Ibet you actually like One Joke Man as well.
One Punch Man for superior animation
>>133757054
This guy gets it.
>>133757054
Truly the most "hype" mediocre show of the season, yes.
Owarimonogatari of course.
>>133756113
>>133757109
>>133757107
>>133757054
>liking one knockoff man
The nigger literally did it better.
>>133755318
Fafner, no contest at all.
>>133757236
Sorry, I don't like niggers. Besides, he's not anime.
>>133757054
OP asked for personal aoty so it doesn't work that way
>>133757036
The threads were fucking horrible senpai. You must be a masochist if you think they were better than the show, even if you think the show was bad.
UBW
I loved it, got what I wanted, never was disappointed. I just sat down and watched it on my big screen.
That 4 month break was hell, but episode 24 made it worth the wait.
>>133757369
They were fun up to the point where to /u/ fags poured in. At that point they became imagedumps for retards lacking braincells and I abandoned the threads altogether. Earlier threads were quite fun though
>>133757071
holy shit you read in me like you read in a book.
are you some kind of Esper?
>all these plebs not picking the obvious AOTY
>>133755775
ma nigga
Houkago no Pleiades
>>133757446
You seen one tripfag with shit taste, you seen 'em all.
>>133755318
Nothing. There were a few good shows I enjoyed, but I don't feel any of them deserve the title best anime of the year. Here's hoping 2016 will be better.
One Punch Man.
One Punch Man.
>mfw
I know, I know. I fucking KNOW, anon.
I kiiiiiiinda loathe having to admit it, but, in 10 years time, when people talk about 2015 in anime, it's going to be about One Punch Man.
>>133757597
Guess who's the crossboarder
>>133757597
Yeah it's right up there with Naruto and Dragonball Z
Punchline
>>133755318
I know that this thread is bait, but I'd have to say Osomatsu-San.
>>133757637
Everyone's a crossboarder, kiddo.
OFFICIAL BEST OF THE SEASON RANKINGS STRAIGHT FROM JAPAN
1. Haikyuu
2. NNB
3. One punch man
4. Shokugeki no Soma
5. Hibekek Yuriphonium
>>133757731
Maybe but you're still cancerous enough to let it show
>>133755318
It's a tie between Hibike! Euphonium in the SoL field and One Punch Man in the Action field
>>133757758
fuck meant to say year instead of season, don't lynch me please
>>133757777
NNB is clearly the superior SOL sinpie
>>133755318
NNB Repeat.
Can't see anything else topping it.
>>133757777
Bad year for action
>>133757759
>giving a shit about who posts where the most frequently on an anonymous image board where you can't even tell that kind of thing anyway.
You need to direct your anger to something people actually give a shit about, friend.
>>133757544
You posted it though.
>>133757063
YEEART
I'm here
>>133757848
You need to adjust your taste
>>133757758
Japan doesn't know what's good, though.
Bless their hearts but they NEVER know what's good.
OPM orYahari.
UFO is up there too.
>>133757895
You need to recognize that favorite does not equal good.
>>133757906
The west is jerking off over OPM so you don't really have any room to talk
>>133757941
No, Japan is too.
Yuru Yuri
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaPjzew83aA
^This one
>>133757989
God Rolling Girls was such wasted potential
>>133757909
Yahari would be a contender for worst anime of the year maybe
>>133757989
If only it was good as its first two episodes. It would have been AOTY easily.
Still a great show, but man were those first two episodes fun as fuck.
>>133757450
this guy gets it
>>133758084
Just like your mom.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=081AdL2RWPg
^This one
one punch man
UBW, OPM, maybe IBO.
Fafner look great too but I haven't watched it yet.
Anybody who doesn't post opm is either a hipster, faggot, sol enthusiast, troll or some combination of them.
Umaru
>>133758311
this is me by the way
>>133758311
Wow not only do you have shit taste you're also a pretentious faggot about it. Off yourself
>>133755366
The only correct answer.Gao gao.
>>133756835
>but it's been going for ages
Am i supposed to take this reasoning seriously?
Only Haikyuu and Osomatsu came close. OPM has been slightly above mediocre.
>>133757450
Wait, wat?
Please, tell me it was a joke in the show as well, and they weren't trying to pull this as a serious "outplayed" moment.
Holy shit I'm laughing hard.
Punchline
>>133758311
>unironically liking OPM
At least have some shame in being a shonenkiddie.
>>133758416
>they weren't trying to pull this as a serious "outplayed" moment.
They were
Hibike! Euphonium with NNB coming close 2nd
>>133758432
I don't agree, but I respect your opinion.
It was a serious contender for me.
>>133755451
Good choice.
>>133758416
>making assumptions about a scene you've never watched in context
why are so fucking dumb senpai?
>>133758356
>>133758392
I like cute girls doing cute things. I am also a closet pedophile and probably own onaholes and other degenerate shit
>>133758480
Ok, then let me laugh even louder.
God, sports anime is a joke.
>>133758543
Good for you.
>>133758543
>if I shitpost hard enough they'll like my mediocre meme show, I'm sure of it

>>133758447
>complains about shounen
>watches shoujo
>believes sol is an actually good genre
Please kill yourself senpai you are the worst kind of person
>>133758432
I liked it, found it interesting, and it was way better than I expected it to be, but the execution wasn't quite there.
>>133758601
>He thinks a genre can be bad by default
>>133758601
You have to be at least 18 to post here.
>>133758601
He didn't imply any of that, stop making shit up and kill yourself
>>133758542
All I see is rule of physic and human physiology being violated, and I even asked if it was a sketch moment or were they trying to pass it for something realistic.
Don't need no contest except this.
Are you really so disconnected from reality?
Have you ever played volley?
Have you ever seen a ball flying in the air?
>so much OPM
Well I guess this confirms /a/ has amazing taste
>>133758724
>/v/ plays pretend
>>133758601
But I hate SoL and shojo as much as battle shonen.
Stawmanning hard, aren't you?
Actually, in general if a show can be categorized so easily in one category, usually it's bad regardless of the category.
>>133758653
>>133758660
>>133758662
The cute girls doing cute things defense force on full damage control
>>133758653
>>133758660
>>133758662
Spot the retards.
>>133758543
Are you kind of mad?
It's funny that this year had a lot of good series but I can't think of one alone to call aoty.
If I have to say one I'll go with Shirobako even if it started airing last year.
The best anime I watched this year was Girls und Panzer though.
I don't know about best AOTY, but I know about best OOTY. (OVA of the year)
>>133758732
This.
Only Fate/Zero and OPM are worth watching from this decade.
Its not as mature and dark as Fate/Zero but its still up there.
>>133758761
Opm is not a "battle shounen" its a deconstruction of the genre for one thing. Second what is your anime of the year oh mature one?
>>133758785
>spot the retards
>Ctrl+F One Punch Man
>>133758672
It's just a guy jumping high jesus, suspend your disbelief a little and enjoy the quality animation you jaded fuck. This is anime we're talking about. If actually watched the damn show, you would know that it actually is faithful the actual rules, mechanics, and strategies of real life volleyball but with the added flair that animation can bring. It's not like Kuroko with the stupid shonen powers.
>>133758836
>it's a deconstruction of the genre
Are people serious when choosing NNB for AOTY? i just can't find the appeal
>>133758909
I feel the same way about OPM.
the generic kyoani anime
>>133758909
Generally hard working adults who come home to relax find it appealing.
Its seinen for a reason.
>>133758836
I fucking love OPM, but you're a fucking faggot for throwing out the "deconstruction" shit in your post
Yaharifags get in here
>>133758992
Ok.
>>133758958
>hard-working adults
Nobody on /a/ fits that description least of all you. Nnb is a meme anime for closet fags, women and otaku scum. I refuse to take anyone seriously that believes this is aoty.
>>133758958
Watching elementary kids is relaxing?
>>133758958
Nice one.
>>133758836
Usually I don't like the meguca's genre, but Pleiades pushed the right buttons.
Punchline was interesting.
Not really more mature stuff, just not so meta,
Protip: mocking a genre by exaggerating the meta, is still meta. Just like pretending to be a retard is still being a retard.
>>133758859
It's more the other guy running 10m and jumping higher than the first one while he and the ball are literally slowmotioned by a magic force.
I mean, shit like slam dunk was fun.
Even Attacker You! bean deformed volleyball made more sense.
High Speed!
>>133758818
>>>/out/
you must watch AT LEAST over 100 anime to post on this boardr
>>133759053
Hard working, well adjusted adults can watch little girls be little girls and find it relaxing without immediately thinking of sex, unlike you.
One Punch Man
Come on, show me your tears.
>>133759042
>>133759061
It's time for you to go back to your respectivd shitholes
>>133759107
But you are not a hardworking adult. And how would you know that anyway Jeff-kun?
- Kekkai Sensen
- Overlord
- Durarara!! x2
- Gundam
>>133759107
So, NNB is literally a normalfag anime?
No idea what my favourite would be but disappointments this year would definitely be Yuki-chan.
Gundam.
Hands down
>>133759160
>Doesn't like what I like (moeshit)
>Must be a crossboarder
This NNB as aoty meme needs to stop as is the casuals who call it a seinen. Berserk is a seinen, Vinland Saga is a seinen, Monster is a seinen. NNB is just a generic sol moeblob show designed to appeal to otakus and maybe families with little girls.
all of these plebs who aren't listing haikyuu can the fuck out of my face right now
If OPM is your AoTY you're either new, underaged, have watched less than 10 shows this year or literally reddit

See the trend here? Well adjusted, working adults think all that action shit is complete garbage and love the simple things in life. Meanwhile children and manchildren love "deep" and edgy shit.
>>133759519

>>133755318

>>133759593
Sorry kid but Umaru > any other shounen garbage.
1438811870542.jpg
>>133759593
Every show listed there on either side is still better than OPM
>>133758882
>>133758976
It's 100% a deconstruction of the genre. Get out of here, tertiary crossboarding scum.

No idea how thigs are there, but it seems you know a lot about it, why you don't go there?
OPM is still the best anime of the year, cry more.
>>133759042
Fucking this.
>>133759653
>retarded, fallacious /v/ memes
Yeah you're a OPM fan alright
>>133759387
I find it hilarious that people will dig up anime about characters fighting each-other with made up bullshit powers but refuse to watch an anime about a real life thing people do. You don't play sports I get it (neither do I), but you don't have superhuman powers or pilot robots either. The appeal comes from watching great character grow on the way the accomplishing something, and haikyuu nails that. It also the some of the most underrated animation quality

>>133759841

You can stop pushing this "NNB is a meme" meme now.
Cyborg 009 vs Devilman OVA is pretty cool. Too bad no subs.

This clip is decent, but:
1) probably nitpicking
2) I don't know how it's rated by most, so I can't comment on over/under rated
>>133760014
People were committed to hating OPM from the moment the anime was announced.
YuruYuri S3> NNBR
Umaru is objectively /a/ AOTY and anyone who doesn't agree can fuck off back to leddit.
Eupho is my favorite, but Yuri Kuma Arashi and One Punch Man are notable too. Non Non Biyori was also very good, but wasn't much more than that.
>>133755318
NNB senpai.
>>133755396
This, Repeat was lovely. My other favourite of the year was Houkago no Pleiades.
>>133760270
True. NNB is overrated.
>>133760342
>Umaru is objectively /v/ AOTY and anyone who doesn't agree can fuck off back to leddit.
FTFY
>>133760439
Not as overrated as OPM at least

nobody will probably agree with me but, Plastic Memories
>>133760548
why? because people with taste shit on your shitty battle shounen?
Hibikek and then GundamOrigin, IBO is shit
>>133760573
What battle shounen?
>>133760618
opm
>>133760475
/a/ hates OPM with a passionor is tsundere at least, how can it be overrated?
>>133760563
So mad.
>>133760625
It's seinen manga
>>133760625
Opm isnt a battle shounen dweeb
>>133760564
Why would anybody agree or disagree with you?
Unlike what the shitpost-brigade believes, this thread isn't the "/a/'s official AotY 2015" thread, but "Your personal AotY 2015".
If Plastic Memories is your AotY, then it's your AotY, and only your dark repressed split personality would know what you really consider AotY better than you.
>>133760655
It isn't.
>>133760662
It is.
>>133760642
Because/a/ isn't the majority of people jerking off over this mediocre garbage
>>133759841
yeah probably sucks having an iq below 80 and cant read subs faster than a word per second

>>133760798
What better in that genre?
009 tai Devilman has a nice JAM Project OP.
https://my.mixtape.moe/pfznws.webm
Diabolik Lovers More, Blood wins hands down.
Haikyuu looks good, but I'm gonna choose OPM. Are you guys serious about NNB or is that one of /a/'s ironic meme thing?
OPM is a great example of great animation, what the manga deserved, and will be posted for years to come.
>>133760759
OPM somehow manages to bore me more than than NNB. What a feat
>>133760782
I don't have to go there, just look at this thread they come to us
NNB of course. Anyone who disagrees is a pleb of the worst kind.
>>133755318
Fafner Exodus
>>133760875
NNB is great. It's a good "my first" for the genre, check it out.
>>133760816
I'll admit OPM has great action scenes but Osomatsu-san leaves it in dust iwhen it comes to comedy and parody.
I found both OPM and NNB to be boring, because they're only adaptions.
>>133760742
Danmachi was surprisngly good.
>>133760975
There are always originals

There are some who do genuinely consider Non Non Biyori Repeat their Anime of the Year. Nothing wrong with that.
But the people here in this thread adamantly clamoring for Non Non Biyori Repeat to be the Anime of the Year and that One Punch Man is shit are just shitposters. They're incidentally also falseflagging as One Punch Man-fans pretending on hating Non Non Biyori Repeat.
In truth, those shitposters like Hibike! Euphonium.

Non Non Biyori is the best anime of the decade; a perfectly executed iyashikei slice of life which will not only make you laugh, cry and feel healed, but also delivers profound messages about life such as the beauty of life's simultaneous transience and permanence. NNB is an emotionally powerful SoL tour de force.

Only NNB's character lineart is occasionally off. The scenery porn looks great and they've proven themselves to "get" iyashikei and mono no aware. They'd pull it off wonderfully.
>>133767291
One Punch Man is the best anime of the decade; a perfectly executed battle shonen which will not only make you thrill, laugh, and fill rejuvenated, but also delivers profound messages about life such as the beauty of life's simultaneous transience and permanence.

The linework, cinematography, and animation are all subpar. And the backgrounds look really plastic. Especially in the second season, I feel like there's just no heart in it. The first season had a couple of moments like the very first scene, falling asleep under the tree, or the mountaintop, that I still remember admiring at least a bit. The second season had absolutely nothing. It was just so fucking dry and bland visually. Also they couldn't use music for shit in S2.
>>133767810
My observations lead me to believe that people possess varying levels of ability to accept and lose themselves in escapism such as iyashikei.
Still The Rolling Girls, nerds
>>133767868
>The linework, cinematography, and animation are all subpar.
The linework and animation are average and they don't need to be anything more for the kind of show it is. The cinematography was brilliant in both seasons, and both seasons felt nearly identical in every manner possible. S2's use of music was excellent, especially in episode 4, which combined brilliant cinematography and brilliant musical direction to produce an emotionally powerful climax.
In conclusion, almost every single one of your subjective opinions is objectively incorrect and I feel those incorrect opinions would fit in better at >>>/v/
I enjoyed a lot of shows this year.
Gatchaman Crowds S2, Hibike and Yuri Kuma was the most enjoyable and hyping for me.
Non Non Biyori
>>133767979
Show me a single fucking shot, webm, or whatever to support your claim. You don't even have to a find any brilliant cinematography, just show me some evidence of at least competent craftsmanship. I'll even take cherrypicking and forget about all the disgusting moments where they subjected me to filtered shots of boring country roads with cheap CG cars driving by. I fucking double dare you little pleb.

The emotional climax interspersing contrasting shots of sun and rain, birth and death, etc.; its combined use of cinematography and music to enhance the emotional impact of this scene was possibly the single most well-executed scene I've ever seen in anime. This is on the same level of that scene in the field in Clannad Afterstory, you know the one.

The death/rebirth archetype accompanied by sunlight after the rain is a fairly obvious choice on the director's part. I'd be surprised if even an incompetent moron wouldn't make use of that. The shots themselves, however, didn't offer anything praiseworthy and the emotional impact of the scene was generated pretty much through narrative alone. It was probably the best moment in S2 though so I'll at least give you that. And I appreciate that they let the scene run a bit longer with shots of scenery, albeit not all that interesting, to let the emotional impact resonate before the end.
>>133768978
I feel kind of bad for criticizing this since it's so fucking cheap looking, but notice the lighting during the scene in the interior. There's no change despite this being so fucking obvious low hanging fruit to reinforce the death/rebirth shit. If there was a single moment in the show to make use of some talent in the animation staff, this would be it.
Yahari for me.
Come on you all know who what the real AOTY is. Pic related.

>>133768978
>The death/rebirth archetype accompanied by sunlight after the rain is a fairly obvious choice on the director's part.
This is supposed to appeal emotionally to a wide audience, not be completely unique high art. It's supposed to be obvious to get the message across to a wide audience.
>the emotional impact of the scene was generated pretty much through narrative alone
I take it you're not a musician. The music is absolutely perfectly choreographed to heighten emotional impact.
>>133766894

Nothing wrong with memes.
>>133770828
>This is supposed to appeal emotionally to a wide audience
It's actually supposed to universally speak to people on a primal unconscious level. It's an archetypal cyclical movement utilized in art since ancient times.
>I take it you're not a musician. The music is absolutely perfectly choreographed to heighten emotional impact.
I forgot to mention music alongside narrative but that's still irrelevant to what we were talking about. And you still haven't provided evidence of the supposed brilliant cinematography.
The music is actually used well in this particular scene and stands out even more considering how anime doesn't usually use music that closely fits a particular scene. Still a lot of music in S2 was jarringly bad. I'd provide examples but youtube doesn't seem to have the OST up and I don't feel like going through the show itself.
I miss them
>>133771447
>I forgot to mention music alongside narrative but that's still irrelevant to what we were talking about.
Your reading comprehension is sorely lacking:

>Still a lot of music in S2 was jarringly bad.
I don't recall an instance of this.
>>133772518
>Your reading comprehension is sorely lacking
>I like NNB but it honestly looks like shit.
This is what I'm trying to illustrate here. I omitted music from the source of emotional impact but it's irrelevant because my claim was that the visuals were insignificant.
>I don't recall an instance of this.
The music from most of the cheerful/energetic moments comes to mind.

>>133773082
>it's irrelevant because my claim was that the visuals were insignificant.
Then don't say:

and instead say:

In conclusion, you are wrong because you are bad at English.
>>133773157
What are you even trying to prove here little strawman? I even addressed the music since it seemed very important to you.
I can't even think of what my AOTY is, there's just nothing really above the rest.
Hibike caused a lot of butthurt though so why not.
>>133773270
I have objectively proven the statement "NNB looks like shit" wrong by destroying your credibility by pointing out a single error in your speech. In addition, I am now reinforcing this rhetorical victory by posting a smug anime girl, the highest form of rhetoric.

>>133779484
Valid, yes, but sometimes just sloppily applied..
Why do people even like slice of life shows?
It can't be the characters, because other mediums do it better
It can't be escapism, because there's nothing going on in SoL that you can't just do in real life instead of watching anime.
I legitimately don't understand why people even like realism fiction. There is no point to it, just live your own life instead of watching fictional characters lives who aren't doing anything interesting.

Go outside and act out the standard interactions you see in a standard SoL. Chances are you will get laughed at and people will think you are more weird than you already are.
You won't see cute friendships in real life like you would in an anime, you won't see a romance like you would in an anime, and you won't see drama like you would in an anime.

To be completely honest, I would say AOTY is a tie between Sore ga Seiyuu and Hibike! Euphonium. Sure, there are other good ones but most shows this year seemed to just be meme shows like Overlord and Umaru-chan. If I have to give it to one, it would probably beEuphonium.

>shits on people who think NGE is deep
Which is it?
Non Non Biyori is a deeper anime than Neon Genesis Evangelion.
>>133783582
Im not this guy>>133783693
I dont have a problem with animes like Steins;Gate or NHK, you know, 'Dramatical animes'.
I have a problem with SOL fags that claim superior tastes when their animes are basically sitcoms
I unironically hate Non Non Biyori.
>>133783798
>SoL are basically sitcoms
Spotted the newfag. You're either confusing SoL with harems or you've seen under five SoL.
Yuki Kuma Arashi. Also had the best ED, IMO.

NNB and Hibike are close behind. Didn't have the time to watch Yuru Yuri to judge it.

Next thing you are going to tell me its that animes like K-ON are SOL.
Believe me, i have seen my share of them, they are mediocre at best.
>>133783947
*are not SOL
>>133783947
>animes
>>133779294
Kill la Kill being the exception
>>133783947
Yeah, I'm sure you've seen such "mediocre sitcoms" as Nana and Honey & Clover, right?
>>133784063
Typical episode of a SOL anime
>Mc awakes in his bed
>Internal monologue about stupid shit that its happening at the school
>Reaches school to see the other main girls
>Boke character says something stupid, Tsukkomi character proceeds to say something sarcastic or hurt the Boke (The pinacle of Japan comedy)
>Repeat the above at least 5 times
>Oh no, a trouble has arisen
>Resolve it with the power of common sense. Sometimes they dont, so they can have another episode.
>Boke - Tsukkomi
>Moe character does something moe
>Everyone is happy
The end
>>133784327
Wow, you did a great job not describing either of the two I mentioned even slightly.
Test.

Gochiusa is the AOTY of the year.
>>133784409
Neither of those are real SOL.
Nana actually seems pretty interesting, that's what i call Dramatical Anime. And Honey and Clover is more like Romantic Comedy
I have a problem with animes like Love Live, NNB, K-ON, Idolmaster, Gochiusa; actually i dont have a problem with the animes itself, i have a problem with 'plebeians' that only watches that crap and think they are superior.
>>133784327
>I actually haven't watched any of it
>>133784638
>neither of those are real SoL
They are, though. Ask any anon. Look through mentions in the archive. Check Bakaupdates, Wikipedia, Batoto, Kissmanga, whatever source you want. Everyone will class them as SoL.
You think SoL is a synonym for Lucky Star-derivative four-cute-girls-in-a-classroom-doing-cute-things, but it doesn't.

Can't you be more cancerous. Kill yourself retard.
>>133784799
>>133784782
It seems i'm mistaken, i generalized too much.
Then i only hate moeshit, as simple as that.
Harem are worse though.
>>133784782
You sound like a reasonable person anon. Just wanted to say that.
Just to leave thia thread i will say my AOTY thus far is Young Blackjack.
>>133785031
>moeshit
This is a stupid buzzword made up to attack any show with cute girls in it that the person speaking doesn't like.
>>133785031
>Then i only hate moeshit, as simple as that.
More like you hate all comedies, judging from what you described.
>>133785079
I didnt hate Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou tho
>>133785153
But what you described is literally that anime.
It had nothing but Boke/Tsukkomi reactions.
>>133785068
You know anon, there can be cute girls in action or drama anime; but when the sole purpose of those cute girls is doing cute things is shit
>>133774194
>I'm sorry but certain things (such as fedoras, frogs, or trashmen) simply transcend the narrow borders of board culture.
>simply transcend the narrow borders of board culture.
>fedoras, frogs, or trashmen
No they don't and that is what shitty crossboarder cancer like you believe. Fuck off and kill yourself retard.

An exception. It warmed up to me because it reminded me of my highschool years.
I had a lot of friends like the characters and i could relate to some of the situations.
But you are right, i don't usually like japanese comedy.
>>133785289
>An exception. It warmed up to me because it reminded me of my highschool years.
Well there you go. That's why people like "moeshit".
>>133785256

>>133785316
Didn't know you were a girl with a 13 year old mindset when you were in highschool anon.
The world is so small.
>>133785410
>were
But seriously, its not the activities, its the "it was a simpler time" feeling, and cute girls just being cute is the epitome of tranquility.
That's why "moeshit' is generally seinen.
One Punch Man was the best this year. Fuck all the haters.
