Common anon, should have seen that coming in the protag being a normal fag that just trash instead of a gamer, I don't see how people even bother watching this trash.

Them being "gamers" is not the part of their personality the show focuses on. It should be called "Idiots", because that's what the show revolves around; everyone's too stupid to explain things clearly to everyone else

I liked it, getting into it I was certain it was just going to be one more shitty harem, this time with a gay mare gimmick, but then the end of ep 1 hit and I was pleasantly surprised that they were actually going for a proper comedy.

Also, misunderstandings are absolutely inexcusable when used for drama, but usually make good comedy.

>>161005896
Amano is a fucking casual who enjoys discussion (of games or otherwise, i.e. gossiping with Aguri) more than getting gud, and he recognizes that merely being surrounded by beautiful autistic gamer girls wouldn't make him any less of a loser.
He's essentially a self-aware version of a certain board, and I love it.

>>161004668
Tower of Druaga. The first episode had me in stitches with it's parody over-the-top cliche scenes and the opening itself makes it seem like it's a slice of life show.

>>161012732 #
anime are glorified infomercials for manga, LN. CD's, so there will never be a third season because another session won't boost sales more.

Sales of the BD are secondary to how it sells the source material.

I came to this thread from the catalog to specifically post it.
Man, I'm used to that unexpected and fucked up last episodes, I'm used to trainwrecks and even love them. But this one was something else.

Koutora-san

A show that is basically a documentary about losers playing video games would be extraordinarily uninteresting. Even your typical subhuman otaku would not want to watch a show about hideous neckbeards arguing over internet items or a 2/10 SJW slag with nothing greater at stake.

>>161014870

Kill la Kill has the same number of kills in the title as important kills in the show, and the only two happen before the series started and right at the end. That's some false marketing

anime when?

Actually good bait and switch: where the bait was bad and the switch was good until it went back to what it was: Gungrave.
First episode was wacky sci-fi esque setting of an undead shooting monsters in a futuristic setting. But from the second episode onwards they explain how they reached that point, how two guys joined a criminal organization and climbed up the ranks until it ended up like that. The realistic part is great,
but all the monster stuff is really corny.

>>161016530
No, there was no bait and switch there. Just terrible execution and horrific pacing, backed by bad ideas.

>Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai
>show is about him hanging around with his tomodachis

>Charlotte

>Elfen Lied
