It's intended to either be watched twice, or once by a smart person.

A lot of /a/ think they're smart but they're not, so they see "plot holes" and "bad characterisation" everywhere, because they can't understand Yuno's motives.

If you mean by her consistently plotting and working towards a very specific goal, sure. Her actions themselves though are fucking insane, all for the sake of fucking Yuuki.

To be fair, id do crazy shit as well to fuck Yuuki.
>>
>>158155720
I watched like 7 episodes in then I gave up on it.

Yuno was the only interesting character and Yuki was an annoying bitch.

but taste is subjective, etc. etc.
>>
>>158158120

>Yuno was the only interesting character

That's because Yuno is the main character, while Yuuki gets pulled along on her wild ride. The show is more or less a combination of mystery, drama/suspense, and watching it to see what wacky shit Yuno does next.

not sure why but after this the amount of yandere fans on /a/ plummeted.
>>
>>158155720
/a/ liked it. The new generation of people who post here but aren't /a/nons pretend to hate it because they are pretentious faggots, or because somehow they can't follow the plot which is baffling to me.

>>
I never got into the anime but I remember reading the manga and finding Yuno's constant victories aggravating after a while. She's not a good character and got really annoying really fast. The bomber chick redeemed the series a bit but honestly I can't imagine people unironically thinking the overall writing of the series is that good.

We liked it as a train wreck. I don't recall the consensus ever being that it was actually good. It was popular because it got more and more ridiculous as it went on, culminating in hammer time.

That and Yunoface.

I have a love-hate relationship with this show. I like so many things about it and had such a great time watching it, yet I also want to murder everyone responsible for making an anime sprinkled with so much shit, like, really bad stinky shit. It's like a very pretty piece of expensive tech full of good stuff you really need, that constantly malfuctions and does stupid bullshit that makes you go "...come the fuck on now, I'm really tempted to throw you at the wall".

Unrelated: I just discovered that this captcha doesn't give a fuck. It was asking for vehicles and I selected all the street signs, yet it worked anyways. Kinda like how the old captcha just required the first word to be correct.

Maybe you should look up the threads back from when /a/ scanlated the manga instead of caring about what a bunch of anime only newfriends thought.

>>158170698
When something is written in order to entertain it is good if it successfully entertains you. This also applies to Geass, Valvrave, and other anime intentionally made to be slightly silly for the sake of creating an entertaining story.
>>
>>158170758
Weren't we talking about the anime though? It's in the OP. The manga had it's niche and was universally liked by those people, yes.

>When something is written in order to entertain it is good if it successfully entertains you.
I don't buy this but I'm not going to get into it. That's a discussion that never ends.
>>
>>158155720
I liked it overall but there were parts I didn't like. Yuno was a great character and carried the show. If it wasn't for her I probably would've hated the show since Yuki was just such an unlikable character for more than half of the show. I did like the plot twist though.

How is that argument at all in your favor? If reading the manga is a prerequisite to the show not being a trainwreck the show has failed at its job.
>>
>>158170857
The elements people claim make the show "objectively bad but fun" are also in the manga. The anime is a straight adaptation. The only difference between anime and manga viewers is anime only viewers are children who think they have to shit talk a series in order to save face on the internet.

Besides, 9 times out of 10 when someone attempts to explain how the series is poorly written they reveal they simply misunderstood some element of the story.

You're missing my point. The anime broadened appeal and notoriety of the show. Manga fans liked it because they sought it out. With the anime though it was exposed to way more people, many of which it didn't appeal to.

I don't remember because it's been what, 6 years, since I read/watched it but I think my biggest problem was pacing and nonsensical side character motivations.

The manga took forever to translate during the first half, so lost track of it for years.

>>158171044
Reading the source material is required to enjoy any show in which it is adapted from.

You don't just go in and watch Harry Pothead shit without alteast reading a book or two. You don't do that with Lord of the Rings. Nor the countless anime thats been adapted from LN or manga.

Or maybe you do, you uncultured fuck. Neo-/a/ should be shot and raped.
>>
>>158171342
>hurr hurr any disagreement with my worldview newfaggotry
You should really cut that out.

I fundamentally disagree, and I'm the type of person to always enjoy source material more. The point of an adaption is to work on its own, otherwise there's literally no point in its existing. If you need to read the manga to enjoy an anime the anime is a failure.

We came for Yuno who was intriguing. Unfortunately she had to share the spotlight with Yuki, who couldn't carry the show at all. By the time Yuki decides to actually do something we're already 2/3 through the show.
If Yuno had to go it alone, or shared the spotlight with either the bomber girl, those two lovers, that eyeball mask wearing guy, then the show probably would have been better

i thought it was boring as not a lot of action really happened compared to the original. some things that bugged me was that Yuki seemed to be a lot more popular in this adaption and i didnt get how they are knocked unconcious by being shot with rubber bullets in that corporation building but i guess having a direct adaption or something close would be a lot harder to create.

They're perfectly sane in a world that doesn't matter because you can just remake it again, where the people don't matter because they're just things you created.

Yuuki2 isn't the person she fell in love with, and isn't in love with her, and openly and obviously attempts to manipulate her, so manipulating him into a surrogate for Yuuki is fair game.

Conversely, Yuuki2 is the same person before the game starts, so every time he tries to manipulate Yuno, it's immediately obvious to her, because she knows what Yuuki loving her was actually like.
