Well, then watch more of the 3.5 star ones The popular opinion is shit in general, and if you have watched a lot of anime then you should have a pretty solid idea of where your tastes lie, and be able to dig up the unsung gems (I'm also on A-P in case you're wondering for some reason).

Yea sort of figured that. Its just that you have to sift through that sea of crap to find that 1 golden turd. First world stuggles for sure...

You probably already felt that way while sifting through the 4+ star ones anyway, amirite? But honestly, that's why forums like ours exist, to help recommend anime to you when the mainstream watering-down machine fails you. You just have to give us an idea of what you're in the mood for at the time, and what you'd like to avoid too (if you have any specific biases we may have forgotten about). And your A-P link, or we'll probably recommend stuff you've already seen.

It's 100% cheese with a generous helping of ham on the side.

if you put it any way in the same category as ghost stories it has my attention lol

It's even better when you learn that they had no idea what the (actually serious) source material was about, so they just threw up their arms and made a gag dub over the animation. I find it even funnier knowing that.

You see. Thats the thing though there really isnt anything that i dont like other than harem and shounen ai or anything with gay in it. Though my post favorite are one like psychological thriller, action, romance(not on the same show as action), horror pretty much anything really. I like shows that have you think a bit. Why else would i watch monogatari lol. But the big thing i like is that its relatively newer because unlike wine animation doesnt get better with age if you no what i mean

Must be frustrating to feel that way, given that the newer stuff is trying less and less these days, so you just end up with the same anime over and over, just with slightly prettier in-between animation.

Every so often I feel like subs do that at times. I can pick out words that are being said and names being said and not ending up in the subs lol

Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys, a new season of Sword Art Online was announced, but screw that, because a new season of Accel World has FINALLY been announced as well!

Well, with names it's often because Japanese doesn't use pronouns as much as English, so they say a person's name more often than we would, especially while talking to them face to face. Translating that literally can sound pretty ridiculous.

Yea.. its sad really when you think about it. Shows like ghost in the shell and origonal fma look better than some new ones and there over 10 years old. Everything is just the same thing with a fresh coat of paint if you think about it. But those that break the mold are the good one like parasyte and psycho pass season 1 to an extent. Not many do things like psychological thrillers (decent ones i mean). I guess thats why i enjoy them the most

Heh... Parasyte is actually an old manga, you know

To be honest, it's not that you can't still find good new anime that try harder than "not at all" (Blood Blockade Battlefront proves that), but that you really do have to gain an appreciation for the older stuff to get the most out of the medium. Pretty animation and modern production techniques were never anime's strong suit, and the nice-looking shows of today will generally look like crap in 5 years. It's the ones with a strong sense of art direction and storytelling that stand the test of time, just like video games.

I would parasyte is one the best ive watched and did a very good job of adaption and improving on some flaws of the original artstyle and updating character designs so they didn't look 80s

Definately. It just hard when you have companies like ufotable and kyou ani that produce stunning visuals with a half decent story. Im just spoiled by technology really.

Actually, now that you mention it, that might be what ticked me off about it. It still *felt* like it was straight out of the 80s, but they tacked on some (mostly) inappropriate music and a coat of paint, and called it a day. I wish they had updated the script a bit more too.

Half-decent story? Where? (I kid, but honestly they generally aren't very good stories at all, but people give them a pass because of the pretty visuals). And Fate is pretty ancient too

My concern is that I won't care about any of the anime airing in 5 years, let alone remember them like I do other stuff that was before my time that I have no business liking in the first place (I watched stuff like Patlabor not that long ago, but I'll certainly remember it much longer I will Fate).

@Jaybird will love this news.

best news ive heard all morning!

I like the fact it felt like a complete romantic relationship occurred without being salacious.

(It would have felt complete even if there was no deed or it put offscreen as well due to character development)

I appreciated that
