99% of all media is complete trash. that's all books, movies, tv, radio, podcasts, and interpretive dance. there's no reason why anime should either get a pass or be judged more harshly than any other media.

This is the kind of rational, sober analysis that I come to SA for. Anime sucks thread after anime sucks thread people bicker back and forth like children but here's a mature and intelligent post that cuts right through the bullshit and goes straight to the facts.

Why should anime be treated differently to other things? Why indeed.

all it did was paraphrase Sturgeon's Law

As much as we'd like to imagine that each idea springs forth out of the ether fully formed and original the truth is that all great thinkers borrow from each other. John Sturgeon may have been the first to pen the idea that 90% of anime sucks but it was gimmie the GOD drat candy that refined and perfected it into the fully fleshed out ethos it is today.

Why is anime the way it is? It's so unnatural. People don't talk like that. People pretending to be people don't talk like that.

Its silly and fun and funny.

Maybe we've seen different anime but all the weird, stilted, and verbose anime monologues I've heard have been about hosed up trauma and sophomoric existentialism.

There are people out there that look at this as a sexually provocative image and not as a gross, weird picture drawn by a degenerate pervert, and 100% of them like anime.
