What makes this series so stellar?

Why can't other anime even compete?

>>154558088
The personalities work well together, so instead of having to make a funny situation for your characters, putting them together in any situation makes it funny

Because it knows to stay lighthearted and not suddenly swing into some serious arc like nearly every other comedy isekai.

>>154558088
Because it's a comedy series.
Comedy-focused series tend to be awesome because they have editors and assistant writers who are actual comedy professionals do most of the work. There's generally a larger collaborative effort and more expertise than the average piece of genre fiction.

It's harem shit and isekai shit. But it's also the best harem ever and the best isekai ever, so that kind of cancels things out.

It isn't design-by-committee and doesn't try to be profound or "epic" which also helps immensely.

Because every part of the show works so well, and the whole package is good.

>colorful side characters that aren't all 1dimensional wastes of space (yunyun, vanir, wiz, even fucking chomusuke)

It's just a good damn show in every possible way.

People love to shit on LE DEEN QUALITY KEK

and didn't see the actual animation in context

The unexpectedness.

The absence of actual harem elements (see above).

The focus on personalities.

A lot of anime, and japanese media in general has top tier concepts, but fails when it comes to actually making something with it.

Konosuba is the exact opposite.

Hard to say. If I had to choose just one thing, it would be the characters. The characters are great, and the people voicing them do a fantastic job. It's always hilarious to watch the characters interact with each other. The great animation, and clever use of music, also adds a lot to the series. Kono Suba has a certain charm to it, that makes it so enjoyable, and would be difficult for other anime to replicate.

Darkness actually hit something, even if its Kazushit.
ib4 Kazuma is acctually not that bad, even a more realistic character than the anime portrait of toyota.

Honestly not sure. It's one of the only shows that's made me go out of my way to read all the source material as a result of the anime. I went in expecting some cheap laughs from a shitty isekai and came out very pleasantly surprised. Its one of those shows I know I'll be remembering for years to come where others will be forgotten in a couple years time.

Konosuba is ok

I think all the hype is just standard 'OMG a 6/10 show best anime evar' but it's not like it's shit or anything so that doesn't bother me

no, what I truly fail to understand is how anyone can have a functioning brain and think Aqua is anything but worst girl

The series success may be in part because of DEEN QUALITY rather than in spite of it. It works very well for a comedy series and if it had KyoAni tier animation it would probably be for the worse.

To be fair she hit the wall Kazushit was hiding behind. Yes, she misses even stationary targets, but you actively have to try to miss a fucking wall.

Hey now I love me some KyoAni but I am currently failing to pay my utility bill because I am buying KonoSuba stuff. And praying for a season 3.

Learn that good stuff is just good, period.

You screenshotfags, I swear to Aqua.

>>154569621

>>154569651

Figs, like 250 cards for a /tg/ card game called Weiss Schwarz, card sleeves and sundries for said game, and the usual weeb stuff. Megumin sleeves are selling for $35 right now.

Pic related buyfaggery.

I'd kill 100 orphans who just found loving families for some Figmas or something of Aqua and Megumeme

>>154569980
I briefly noticed some buyfag saying that apperantly all the Aqua figures are made by some company that is complete dogshit in quality. But I literally have no idea about that, just remembered reading it

Kemono Friends is beating the living crap out of it.

>This is pretty standard by 90's fantasy anime

Which isn't surprising, considering the author is a huge fan of '90s fantasy anime, especially stuff like Slayers.

It's also the reason a lot of us like it so much. I'm sure there are underage teenagers here, but I've also seen tons of 30-somethings pop up in Konosuba threads and say that a lot of why they like it is because it's so much like the series they loved as teenagers. I'm among that group myself.
>>
LN goes to shit tho

>>154570657
Being older doesnt make you smarter or better in any way. If anything you're washed up weaker versions of these teenagers you criticize. In fact it shows your immaturity that you judge people based on such an arbitrary trait to mock the fucking cartoons people like. 26 year old here telling you to kindly fuck off.

I remember thinking the exact thing you're thinking. It looks like a girlish echhi romance series but it was literally one of the funniest comedy anime I've ever seen and I've pretty much seen them all. If you watch the first three episodes in dub I guarantee you'll end up watching all of it.

Vastly overstated. They are not topnotch or anything but well worth displaying and comparatively cheap. It's just that the breadth of quality involved in these things means that everything that's not a 9-10/10 is automatically a 0 for some jerkasses. The ones in question are more like a good 7.5/10 and are under $55.

Because they've made an almost perfect MC along with top tier comedy.

Not only can Kazuma be alpha at times he also can be a huge fucking pussy, He has a nice balance to him.

>>154571213
That's been done many times before in comedy anime.

Konosuba is just one of the few good comedy anime we've had in a long time but it's by no means the best in any way in my opinion. I think it's just the sheer fact that nothing funny is really being made anymore is what makes it stand out.
