Is this really as good as people say? I tried to ignore it because

Yeah, anon. It's really bad so don't watch it. Just watch another anime that's worth your time. You're not missing anything.

>>154574299
How can it be wish fulfillment when everybody, including the MC, is useless as fuck and has to struggle to achieve anything?

>>154574557
A lot of anime with similar art are pure wish-fullfilment, so It's not surprising that people are biased against it

>>154574557
Bruh the mc successfully defeats like 5 big baddies which is something everyone admires, lives in a house with three attractive girls, has personal relationship with the princess of the country he lives in, and is a fucking millionaire, among other things. That shits wish fulfillment m8. Just cos the narrative can poke fun at itself doesnt mean it aint wish fullfilment.

>>154574299
Its a play on those exact tropes, but multiplied until they become ridiculous.

>Brown haired MC has no powers and is useless
>Tsudere is so full of herself she turns retarded
>Crusader is so devoted, she's a masochist
>Mage girl is like shitty teammate that holds ult all game waiting for the perfect moment

But its all up to you OP

>>154574299
>generic bland brown-haired MC
The MC is a little less generic on account of being not only actually aware of his situation but also constantly pissed off about it. He's outspoken and, confronted with a shitty situation, he'd rather keep being a lazy piece of shit instead of doing any sort of heroics.

>harem
It fell here eventually... sorta, yes. But it takes a long while for that to be a factor. And being slightly more aware than your average MC means his interactions with the girls are unusual and funnier.
The girls are also a disaster each in their own way, with a useless retard drunk; a girl that's culturally obsessed with doing "dark" cool things and personally obsessed with developing and using a single powerful but completely exhausting spell; and an extremely tough tank that is unable to draw any aggro as she's unable to provoke enemies other than throwing herself at them, something that she'll happily do because she's a sofisticated and deeply masochistic person who extremely enjoys any sort of abuse.

>isekai
>rpg setting
The entire joke of the story is that the world they're in is a nonsensical trash fire, where "evil" villains are just strong people that don't care much about anything other than themselves. Where the world itself is far more deadly than anything else, being populated by murderous vegetables, adorable little plant girls that entrance you to take care of them as they keep you trapped until you die and RPG-aware monsters that lure weak adventurers with mobs of weak goblins while a single overpowered Rookie Killer beast destroys the naive parties.

TL;DR: It's a funny show, that's all.

>>154574636
The first season ends with him holding more debt than god himself and about to be executed for treason.

S2 gave him a few wins but in general he's still getting shit on regularly.

You don't watch konosuba to see kazuma win. You watch it to see him (and everyone else) suffer.

Because is a parody of exactly that.

It's really not OP. It may parody that stuff, but you still have to unironically like those tropes in the first place to get anything out of the show. It isn't even that funny anyways, Akiba's Trip is better.

No. Quoting the whole thread gets you banned for spamming.

>>154574636
They've had like 3 big wins across both seasons so far; Dullahan, the walking fortress, and Vanir. Vanir of course wasn't actually a win because he just went into his backup body to annoy them even more, although this is the win they got the most reward from. This is stacked up against innumerable losses and mistfortunes all caused by their own ineptitude.

>>154577940
This. It's basically like SAO or Re: Zero but instead of playing it 100% straight and looking retarded, it's played for laughs

>>154578231
I guess if intelligently discussing the merits and skill at which a joke is delivered is robotic, as opposed to just circlejerking back and forth saying "this was funny" "yeah" "that was funny" "yeah" "this was less funny" "no".
There's no discussion to be had in a simple yes/no topic as straightforward as "was this joke funny". To turn it into an actual discussion you have to expand the range of the conversation to more than that, which can and does lead to the technical skill used to create the joke.
Basically you're just saying semi-intelligent discussion is robotic, is this supposed to be a insult?

Embarassing.

>>154579032
Its not funny. Its a bunch of one liners that get played over and over again also its the epitome of self insertion. Apologists will say its a parody of it and its completely original while playing the formula straight, even moreso the harem aspect of it.

Even the self insertion is appearent as you have a rich guy with a bunch of girls fawning over his dick and beats everything with this overpowered party despite thier ineptitude. The fact that Kazuma is essensially a blank slate with no backstory is the smoking gun to this as well. Other than him being a NEET loser.

>>154579148
Konosuba harem elements are minimun (most of the cast only see the protag as a friend) and the isekai part is there just to make a joke of it and RPGs in general.

>>154574746
>You don't watch konosuba to see kazuma win. You watch it to see him (and everyone else) suffer.
