[dLtMs0 v 5.4] ITT SHINJI IS CONFIRMED FOR GROSSEST; Days till Pokestick Day: check new thread

Oh yeah.

I think I should actually get around to watching SnK now.

Spoiler:

I didn't appreciate the hype

Best to wait the hype out on things like that.

Overhype just naturally creates disinterest and disdain in a lot of people, often inexplicably so, even in those that are good at going into things without expectations.

Never could get into manager mode on fifa, closest I got was master league on PES but I couldn't use that as a substitude for a dedicated management sim. Maybe they have better modes than Fifa or I'm just picky.

Titans anime is bad, manga is less bad but still not worth the few minutes of reading every now and then.

The anime was great. Eren's the best protagonist since Kirito.

Man, I might not like his manga very much but he never lets you down with his holiday pic releases on twitter. https://twitter.com/hiro_mashima/status/547725938985664512/photo/1

Eren is an acceptable protagonist imo, although the anime warps him a fair bit.

 

[machomuu]

317

I don't mind him in the manga.

In the anime, though, he's Dark Haired Brooding Fate of the Universe Hero that I don't much care for. Though, really, I think putting him on Kirito's level in either case is a bit extreme.

All this Kirito hate, you sound jealous.

 

[machomuu]

Eheheh.

319

 

[Akiba]

320.

Of his big harem, obviously.

>fu, the cute brown jinchuriki, to be a part of the up and coming nurutu filler arc

 

[machomuu]

322

I'd rather die than have someone as bland as Asuna as a wife. I might even like her less than I like Kirito.

Most of them I wouldn't want, really. Possibly best ass, but I haven't seen SAOII yet, so I can't really judge.

 

[Akiba]

323.

Spoiler:

Watch out for Netto the Destroyer

Of course. Who would want anybody but a Touhoe. I've contemplated for eh, four years? I still have only a top three.

 

[Weeaboo Name]

324

She looks good though, supposedly, that's a plus.

Entire cast were cold and sterile, just like the art. Not for me, even though I like plenty of bland mc harempoop.

 

[Akiba]

325.

"Supposedly" being key.

 

[machomuu]

Really, I hope Netto enjoys his Christmas, I really do, but it boils my blood when I see Asuna voted as best female character (especially when people give the argument that "she's revolutionary because she presents a strong female model for later anime females to follow" despite the fact that the only thing she does is push a guy with her sword and is then relegated to housewife and later damsel) or Kirito as best male (because he apparently just is, no reason needed).

326

I know the polls don't mean much, but when I see characters as bland and just plain mediocre as those two loved so much, I just see evidence time and again that a good deal of anime fans (especially in Japan) see waifu/husbando material as the same thing as good three-dimensional character (especially since these polls often have hundreds upon thousands of voters). Not just there, either, it oozes through a lot of things (especially if you look at the most popular anime at any given time).

 

[Weeaboo Name]

326

Character polls are always funny, so many people voting with their dicks.

I remember an old nurutu poll which had both favourite and least favourite character sections, it was also split by voter gender. Characters like Tenten scored highly in the male vote whereas Nurutu himself didn't do well. Female vote saw Sakura win and Naruto rank highly. Best grill ranked well in both, only the tublrwhales that dislike her.

Which anime should I watch next?

 

[Akiba]

327.

I lightened up with some Ookami-san just recently.

Not particularly spectacular in any way, but best comic relief thanks.

 

[Omicron]

328.

I usually avoid this thread because the discussion is always anime and I know nothing. I should change that and binge watch some things during the holidays.

 

[machomuu]

329

It usually is, but we're up for anything really.

Miscellany is our forte, after all.
