Is it just me or is comedic relief often used really poorly/inappropriately in anime?

Is this a cultural thing? Am I just a baka gaijin?

Japanese humor is garbage

Having said that, most comedy is shit no matter what form of media and no matter where you are.

No its not just you, ive dropped a lot of series (pretty much all shonun) that just had some stupid repetitive gag. Brotherhood is one where i can think of where it was a sentimental scene and then all of a sudden "hey im not short even though ive said this for the third time this episode!" joke out of fucking nowhere.

>character A says or does something absurd

Is it just me or is Sakura extremely sexy?

I think it has to do with how theatrical the Japanese are when it comes to the arts. It is a cultural thing

Why do nips do this?

>how theatrical the Japanese are

Can you elaborate please?

Do you mean exaggerated and dramatic in their mannerisms and speech? I'm not sure that's entirely related to what OP is saying

>>162097624
cos you only watch shit. that is the truth, the one and only truest of truths

peace out, this was anon desu

Western comedy uses strait man all the time too. You just don't notice it because it's in your language so it ends up feeling far more natural.

Whoa, high quality discussion on /a/
>>
>>162097896
It's funny that /a/ doesn't understand this, because it's exactly how trolling works. The joke isn't he boke being stupid, but the tsukomi getting sucked into his idiocy and reacting to it.

You'd have thought they'd caught on by now
