>>156203699
Their autistic over the top "personalities" are anything but believable. They don't act like human adults, or humans in general. Almost all anime nerds are under the impression that for some reason development automatically translates to good writing. Why are you so impressed by the most basic shit? Almost every story has some kind of development, even fucking SAO has it.

>>but time travel is totally believable guys
It's reasonable to expect an audience to suspend their disbelief over something related to how the plot works like time travail (assuming its internally consistent), not so much for with characters.
>you are literally trying to argue "my opinion is objectively correct
are you one of those cucks who doesn't believe in objectivity? Do you honestly think something like Batman v Superman has the same artistic value as a Tarkovsky film? Or in the case of anime, do you think Ghost in the Shell has as much artistic value as some shitty meme show like Mars of Destruction? If you deny objectivity there is literally no difference between these things, everything's just an opinion. There is not reason to consume art other than shallow entertainment.

>>156204837
this isn't about that specific retarded meme, this is just "i don't like your opinion's so I'm calling you reddit"

>>156204332
>>characters in a fictional television series behave like *GASP* characters and not literal human beings
>>but time travel is totally believable guys

Not OP (faggot) but I think anyone watches anime already accepts it as work of fiction. When they say or suggests the characters aren't believable, it's what they do or don't do in their actions in a particular situation.

So this is an old-fashioned CYOA?

>>156205304
CYOAs are huge images where you (usually) spend points to make a character for yourself and that's where they end.
Stories written by a single (rarely several) authors with many players voting on branching story options and controlling a single/a limited number of characters are called quests these days.

>>156205430
Hence why I said old-fashioned.

I don't really understand why those are called CYOA, but at least some of them are usually entertaining.

>>156204895
Objectively bad art is something that breaks artistic convention not for the sake of weaving an engaging narrative or making a statement, but simply because the artist does not understand the conventions. Mars of Destruction has a convoluted plot, poor animation and art quality, lacks any thematic weight, uses a royalty free music score, and has uninteresting character design.

Subjectively bad art means you personally were not engaged in the art, despite its technical merit. You did not like how the characters were handled in Steins;Gate, therefore it did not engage you, therefore it is "bad art", but that does not make it objectively "bad art".

>>156204837
>doesn't understand that reddit is everything that disagrees with me
go back to \reddit\ please and thank you

>>156205502
>I don't really understand why those are called CYOA
Well, there is a logic to it to be honest. You create a character or situation all for yourself, personally, and then roleplay it however you(!) want in your(!) head.
Quests, at least what is referred to as quests these day, are shared with other people, hence you can't really call it your own adventure. You affect the outcome, sure, and even majorly if you are good at convinving other people on the interner, but it's still not a personalized expirience.

>>156202497
Did you even watch the show?

>>156205792
It is though, they used to have all kinds of books that were CYOAs. You read a page or two about something and it said "Go to page 5 if you choose this" or "Go to page 9 if you choose this", so you choose what adventure you have.

3MB, 3200x4000px

>>156205850
Well yeah, but those are, as you've said yourself, old-fashioned CYOAs. You read them alone and decided what page to go to alone. You can't call a quest a CYOA because you don't play quests alone. There can be anywhere from a couple to several dozens of people, depending on the particular story's popularity.
These image CYOAs are called CYOAs because you are playing with yourself.
I personally don't enjoy them at all, but that's another story.

Reading LNs is a pain in general. Why bother when you can pick up a book with actually good writing and descriptions. And if that's not to your liking, even the aforementioned quests are often better than most LN shit.

>>156207381
No I meant specifically maoyuu's LN is an atrocious thing to read. Have you ever seen it? I can't believe they let something like that actually be published as a proper book. The story is probably pretty fine but I can't bring myself to read it in that kind of structure.
