Is it my disdain for overstylized pretentious artsy fartsy piles

Why would you watch it if you know you don't like visually ambitious stuff?

The problem's you, not the show.

This.

You either keep an open mind and try to enjoy yourself or you pick another show and live on.

>it looks different from other anime
>it must be pretentious
Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and say don't even bother OP. Stick to generic stuff, since apparently anything different is just pretentious.

>>149078908
Because I watch anime solely for the purpose of complaining about them.

people who say "artsy" sincerely are idiots

This show is very good. It's art style works amazingly for the type of stories it tells and for the mood it's trying to set.

If you want a show where the art style fools people into think it's more than it actually is then shitpost about gankatsuou.

Gankatsuou > The Count of Monte Cristo. Prove me wrong.

They are both mediocre. I don't feel like arguing with your shitpost since it would be the same as trying figure out which out of two highschool battle harems is the better one.
