My ex got triggered with this anime so hard. And this was even before the time triggered was even popular as a term ironically.

>>150326040
Did your ex watch the English dub? If yes, I don't blame your ex.

>>150326071
i didnt know there was a dub until recently
as it happens kari from the old digimon also voices one of the main girls

>>150325823

>>150326071
No I had it on subs, this was a long ass time ago also I've been anti dub since 2004 when they fucked Animax with stupid dubs.

>>150326141
Ah then nvm, it was annoying as fuck. Guess the repetitiveness of the "we maybe twins" line is less annoying in another language, but that's just me.

Guess I need to rewatch it. I don't remember if I watched the Japanese dub.

>>150326526
Actually to this day I still have no clue. I showed her an episode and she went all "I don't like this show, it's making me severely uncomfortable." And she told me to never watch that show ever again in front of her.

>>150326631
Maeby it make her remember something of the past.

Like the car scene.

>>150326880
Definitely. It portrays a realistic romance with real problems. Anime don't do this anymore, at least not since White Album 2.

>>150327258
I wouldn't say realistic it's a bit over the top. But yeah. Cheating is a bit 2 real for /a/.

>>150326386
Pretty much. Current /a/ has practically no appreciation for any kind of complexity, variety, ambiguity, or even how a show works overall. "Discussions" always boil down to stupid arguments about who the best girl is, bitching about how the show must be shit because of one element of it, how it's terribly animated because a character in the background of an inbetween frame looks a little derpy, etc.

This isn't facebook, faggot.

If Haruhi was released today it would be slammed as generic otaku-pandering pedomoeshit cancer that's killing the industry, just another mass produced piece of shit about cute girls doing nothing and getting molested by perverted onii-chan, completely identical to every single thing Kyoani has ever made.

I've heard Haruhi was very popular in America back in the day, which seems unbelievable now. There was recently a review of it on ANN where the author denounced the whole thing as a relic of the past that's now at best a historical curiosity because for some people used to like it.

>>150332814

Not really, but there were threads on /a/ when the English dub of Death Note and Code Geass aired on Adult Swim.

Good times.

>>150326386
I have watched Utena for the first time some weeks ago and this is what I thought "Why this is so popular on /a/? /a/ hates unvirgins girls".

>>150333403
What happened in this?

>>150333527
Contrary to popular belief, and admittedly a lot of evidence, /a/ is not actually one giant circlejerk of a single viewpoint with no dissent possible. Utena has a reasonable popularity here because A) it is good, and B) just about everything about it is contrary to what the circlejerk crowd stands for, so it makes a good flag to rally around for those with better taste than the circlejerk.

>>150335295
>it is contrary to what the circlejerk crowd stands for, so it makes a good flag to rally around for those with better taste than the circlejerk.
So basically they're circlejerking over not circlejerking.

>>150333527
Utena was one of those mysterious Oldtaku shows (since it got a dub) people heard about and was praised constantly but only watched once it became widely available only and shit like that. /a/'s love of Utena comes from a pre-/a/ mentality then a post-/a/ mentality, as shown by the hundreds of "what the fuck did I just watch" threads about it.

I fucking love Utena, but a modern /a/ would probably hate it and not give it the time of day if it was aired today.

>>150327173

>I fucking love Utena, but a modern /a/ would probably hate it and not give it the time of day if it was aired today.
I disagree with that; I think that people would be creaming themselves over it but that the threads would be garbage for all the same reasons that other threads are garbage these days. Mod-kun banned generals, but the entire fucking board is the shittiest things about generals playing out in slow motion; just look at the catalog from hour to hour and day to day. Granted, it may be worse at the moment because this season doesn't have much going for it so people get bored and make shitty threads just to have something to do but my point still stands.

>>150332814
That's what happens when everyone imitates you.

And yes, Haruhi doesn't hold up.

>>150335605
The problem is that nowdays the enterity of criticism on a show is focused on the writing of the characters more than anything, and people tend to point small useless details that doesn't really matters and in the end they ruin the entire show. People don't watch past the design and the plot is left aside.

>>150335867
>The problem is that nowdays the enterity of criticism on a show is focused on the writing of the characters more than anything

It's not like the average show has much going for it, though. Most of them have a mediocre budget and/or absolutely nothing compelling going on in the visual or audio departments, no B-plot worth noting (if there's even a plot at all) and serialization that really doesn't matter very much so all that's left to discuss is characterization. The average show feels like a fucking paint-by-numbers kit.
