Why is this considered the best anime?
>>145129768
By whom?
>>145129799
By me
>>145129856
cuz u like it
>>145129768
Its not . Its one of the best tho
You're confusing "most popular" with "the best", malfag, there's no such thing as objectively best anything
>>145130295
>"most popular"
Wouldn't that be Dragonball?
Or DBZ to be exact.
Why do people consider anything to be the greatest? You'd figure by now people would have realized how stupid subjectivity is.
>>145129768
It's considered the best, because it does everything well enough, has no glaring flaws, appeals to everyone, is an epic and complete story with solid production values.
>>145129768
First FMA anime was better
>>145129768
Because it is.
Look I love FMA but it got glaring flaws
>starts with a seinen-ish world that revolves on the doctrine "equivalent exchange" and quirky, interesting characters that each have their own hidden darkness and objectives.
>ends with a cliché and generic final boss that was defeated in a boring and generic shounen-ish final battle against everyone and then characters lived through it and got their happily ever after like a generic fairy tail.
NOPE MALfag, it was never the best anime or manga and never will. And no, there is no BEST ANIME, everything is just subjective.
>>145131126
I was with you when I read the first sentence but saw that you're a fatefag. Therefore your opinions have zero credibility.
>>145131126
That's why 2003 FMA is better than Brotherhood.
>>145131207
>>145131126
FMA was way better than Fate Stay Night and Fate Zero.
>>145131126
>Best character died to weaken boss
>happily ever after.
Because it's a complete package. It's kind of generic and there are other shows that do some of its elements better, but Brotherhood does just about everything and pulls it off really well.
>>145131126
Fatefag have an opinion?
>>145129768
>FMA:B considered the best anime ever created
Nope, that's Legend Of The Galactic Heroes.
>>145131179
Nobody cares that your taste is too shit to appreciate a complex franchise like Fate
>>145129768
Because it is a battle-shonen that is actually well written and has a concise story.
Hunter X Hunter had the potential to be this but it got side-tracked way too much with dumb shit like greed island and later Chimera Ant. And don't get me wrong I think the chimera ant arc is the best arc but the story of it comes out of nowhere and takes up too much time.
>>145131126
I'm a fatefag and people like you are the reason I hate fatefags.
>NOPE
>CAPITAL LETTERS
>hidden darkness
Oh come on, just go back to MAL.
>>145131292
Fate is garbage. It's a generic harem series for chuunis with bland characters and shitty writing. The VN was bad, the anime are bad, Fate/Zero at least tried to be interesting instead of pandering (but sadly tied down by the series it follows). Fate is literally just shonenshit except more boring and more pretentious.
>>145131302
>1st chapter sets up the world to contain creatures like chimera ants
>beast hunters are set up as a thing early on
>chimera ant came out of nowhere
topkek
also greed island is fucking great, all those dynamic scenarios and rules
>>145129768
because the combat follows the rules all the way through instead of introducing "totally not ki" powers (eg. haki, nen) to ignore them and keeping upping the power level to raise the hype without putting the effort to think about it
>>145131420
>hey gon i'm studying there really interesting creatures called chimera ants
>whoopsy daisy they surpassed humanity in a month and now i'm dead
>>145131302
>Chimera Ant Arc
>main character angry because friend dies (which happens in every fucking shonen manga ever)
>main character's consequences are negated anyway one arc later (in a very boring and uninteresting arc btw)
>shock value
>pretentious symbolism of games even though they never take the time to properly explain the games or even properly show WHY the player's moves are so smart (this happens in every 2deep4u anime)
>overrated character that barely did anything before this arc dies in a generic shonen battle with energy beams and DBZ clashes
Chimera Ant Arc was tryhard bullshit by a mangaka who doesn't deserve his popularity. Only reddit thinks HxH is some kind of masterpiece.
>>145129768
It's perfect for 12 years old.
>>145131420
>well, chimera ants aren't really dangerous or anything
>haha, they just eradicated the strongest Nen user on Earth
Sure was fucking great.
>>145131420
I like greed island, but the entire point of it is in the end to reunite Gon with Kite, it could have been done without having to introduce the bomber and shit. The story gets sidetracked, it is still really fucking good, but sidetracked none the less.
>>145131383
>It's a generic
Almost everything about it is unique. Setting, psychology, themes, writing
>harem
It isn't a harem. One romance per universe, in HF Rin dates other guys
>The VN was bad
The VN was great
>Fate is literally just shonenshit except more boring
You should seek out medication for that ADD of yours
WikiHow knows its stuff.
>>145131420
>dynamic scenarios and rules
Oh hey remember that time they explained each card and each monster they encountered, so it actually felt adventurous and cool? Oh wait. They just skimmed over everything. Instead focused on bland villains who are just evil for the sake of being evil. Who was willing to murder a child and then suddenly cares about his friend which made no sense character-wise. Wasn't forced and badly written at all right?
The game itself was never fully fleshed out, just typical shonen battles left and right with the training montage you see in a lot of anime. I love how people think hunter x hunter is amazing because Gon becomes angry in one part of one arc. When in reality every shonen character does the same thing.

>FMAfags trying to shit on my post by the pic.
Can't even defend their "best" anime and tries to shitpost about a series not even the thread's topic. Try again Neckbeards
>>145131528
that was the point, that they weren't dangerous in the slightest in face of humanity's malice, they were just lucky to be born in a place like NGL
>>145131549
hxh is about the detours, gon never really cared about finding ging anyway. seems like a misguided complaint
>>145131621
>Oh hey remember that time they explained each card and each monster they encountered, so it actually felt adventurous and cool? Oh wait. They just skimmed over everything
read the manga
>Instead focused on bland villains who are just evil for the sake of being evil
genthru is definitely below par for hxh, he makes sense in the context of the greed island setting though.
>just typical shonen battles left and right with the training montage you see in a lot of anime
the volleyball with razor is one of the most inventive fights in shounen
>I love how people think hunter x hunter is amazing because Gon becomes angry in one part of one arc
that isn't why they like it, though gon's development and thematic contrast with meruem is indeed really good
>>145131126
>meme character
>thinking good = seinen
>complains about bad final boss when posting one of the most boring and badly written final bosses ever
"durr Shirou is such an underdog, that's why he was written specifically to counter the strongest fucking villain"
Summer is here.
>>145131734
He always cared. That was his motivation. That's what he said. He always wanted to meet his dad.
That's what the author told us. Him disregarding the dad finding plot as minor later on is a joke.
>yeah I'm this guy who wants to find his dad
>I take every possible detour to avoid finding him
HxH is much better than FMA in everything by a long shot, fm@faggots should go back to mal or whatever shithole you came from.
FMA:B was destroyed by "HAHA EDWARD IS SMALL" jokes. They even ruined many emotional moments the anime had.
Watching this after the not brotherhood really fucked me up mentally i think im autistic now
>>145131795
Shirou is an imitation hero, Gilgamesh is the King of Heroes. Shirou creates imitation weapons, Gilgamesh owns the prototypes. Shirou, to prove his worth and the worth of his ideal, has to overcome Gilgamesh, save the city, and prove that an imitation can surpass an original.
I'm deeply sorry that you can't follow a simple thematic thread, anon.
>>145131851
my negro
>>145131903
Fuck off.
>muh thematic F/SN
I'm a fatefag but you'e making yourself look way, way too retarded here. Please contemplate suicide.
>>145130337
Probably switched to one piss by now.
>Nippon Sales
Its definitely the best Shonen manga
>>145132282
>not JoJo
Into the trash it goes.
>>145131268
I'd say it's eva but mostly because more people have seen it.
>>145132453
NGE is in top 10, but LOGH is top 1. NGE had a lot of unneeded religious symbolism, because Anno thought it was cool.
>>145131584
>Setting
>Unique
Are you fucking serious?
>>145131708
>Quoting people who didn't even mention fate
Kill yourself and go back to MAL.
>>145132563
But if you wanna say which is more considered the best as a general statement it can't be LotGH since a lot of newer anime fans over the past maybe 10 years or so wont have seen LotGH because of its length and age.
>>145132974
The objective truth is that LOGH is the best anime ever created, and it's better than NGE. What the majority will say is of no concern to me. Just because many haven't seen, doesn't mean it's not the best.
>>145131584
>unique setting
>highschool
>writing
Yeah that sure was great.
>>145133529
>Woah, sex scenes suck, but that must mean that the whole VN of +50 hours sucks as well!
Sex scenes are skippable.
>>145133638
Truly the pinnacle of eastern literature.
>>145133686
translation could'ev sucked.
>>145133765
That's gotta be it, yeah.
>>145132796
>Nasuverse
>not a unique setting
>>145133529
>highschool
That isn't the setting. You didn't read it
>>145133686
Are you seriously using a TakaJun translation to comment on the writing? Can you at least attempt to criticize the plot or characters?
>>145133813
Shirou is described as a machine, yeah. That's kinda the entire point of his character.
>>145133875
>setting is described as a geographical location
>highschool doesn't count
>>145133529
These are gold. Got any more?
>>145133944
This one's always gold.
I don't think there' a Saber edit of her H scenes.
>>145133924
They spend less time in highschool as they do in the church. Is the church the setting of FSN ?
>>145133944
I feel like Rin is the epitome of a good tsundere heroine.
>>145133982
Lost it. Thanks sempai.
>>145134022
Anything that fits so well into the tsundare archetype as Rin is a mediocre character.
>>145131126
People like you give other Fatefags a bad name..
Either that or you put Gil there just to poison the well.
