  3. May 10 21:37:41 <theomeo>       suddenly, everyone who is talkin bout how badass sword art online is
  4. May 10 21:37:46 <theomeo>       is hit with fairy adventures
  5. May 10 21:40:30 <Cryswar>       what's with /a/'s hate-on for sword art online anyways
  6. May 10 21:40:33 <Cryswar>       is it that bad?
  7. May 10 21:41:38 <Aliens>        Because it's popular
  8. May 10 21:42:10 <ditv-toy>      Guess nobody will ever hate you then, huh, Aliens?
  9. May 10 21:42:31 <Aliens>        Ha! Hahaha... hah... heh. ;_;
  10. May 10 21:42:34 <Kusanagi>      It's pretty bad Cryswar
  11. May 10 21:44:11 <scrubadour_mobile>     #sickburn
  12. May 10 21:46:13 <theomeo>       would say because SAO is kinda shounen-like and also the people who like it have shitted up the board pretty good
  13. May 10 21:46:36 <theomeo>       i dont think a week has gone by without a 'Why does /a/ hate SAO' thread
  14. May 10 21:46:55 <Destati>       Do those people even like the series though
  15. May 10 21:47:10 *       Pasternack (~Pasternac@cobras.everywhere) has joined
  16. May 10 21:47:10 *       ChanServ gives voice to Pasternack
  17. May 10 21:47:11 <Destati>       People who make those threads just want to troll /a/
  18. May 10 21:47:11 <Kusanagi>      I would say I hated the characters and thought the second half was really lame once they were no longer risking their lives
  19. May 10 21:47:43 <Kusanagi>      We got some nice fatel pulse doujins tho
  20. May 10 21:48:01 <Kusanagi>      The fans are eh
  21. May 10 21:48:11 <Kusanagi>      They aren't really as big of a problem as IRC was
  22. May 10 21:48:17 <Kusanagi>      They mostly keep to themselves
  23. May 10 21:48:30 <Kusanagi>      But cause it was so popular people keep remaking the fucking threads
  24. May 10 21:48:37 <Kusanagi>      It's almost Naruto spam level at times
  25. May 10 21:50:27 <theomeo>       i would say normals saying it was the best thing ever did not help the critical reception on /a/
  26. May 10 21:50:35 <theomeo>       then again SnK had a similar thing going on
  27. May 10 21:50:46 <Kusanagi>      Well SnK's problem is different though
  28. May 10 21:51:03 <Kusanagi>      The anime only fans are fucking stupid and post stupid shit that annoys the manga fans
  29. May 10 21:51:15 <theomeo>       and log horizon was even more light hearted and nobody cared about that
  30. May 10 21:51:43 *       morobrens has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
  31. May 10 21:52:00 <theomeo>       so i dont really know, i think people just call it shit endlessly now to berate people who like it, more than actually hating the show
  32. May 10 21:52:05 <Kusanagi>      Log Horizon got a small following though cause of the author coming to the board
  33. May 10 21:52:09 <theomeo>       would say there's a large amount of people who havent watched it anyway
  34. May 10 21:52:15 <Kusanagi>      He got respect for that
  35. May 10 21:52:52 <theomeo>       even before that the threads were fine, databass etc, but still mostly free of 'show is shit kill yourself' style posting lol
  36. May 10 21:53:11 <Kusanagi>      I saw that klk thread earlier
  37. May 10 21:53:19 <Kusanagi>      Someone posted Naruto was better than klk
  38. May 10 21:53:23 <Kusanagi>      That didn't fly well with me
  39. May 10 21:53:31 <Kusanagi>      All the other hate I didn't care about but come on
  40. May 10 21:54:08 <theomeo>       KLK isnt even that bad
  41. May 10 21:54:33 <theomeo>       but i think the fans (who also happen to like TTGL, which i dont understand) have an attitude about them that is sort of i dunno
  42. May 10 21:54:34 <Kusanagi>      I liked it a lot
  43. May 10 21:54:44 <Kusanagi>      I don't like TTGL
  44. May 10 21:55:12 <scrubadour_mobile>     Heretic
  45. May 10 21:55:18 <ditv-toy>      AoT is shit and its writer is a fascist asshole.
  46. May 10 21:55:21 <theomeo>       i hated TTGL, but i'd try not to bring it up too often on /a/ because i know there'd be some shitty posts in response to it
  47. May 10 21:55:34 <Kusanagi>      ditv-toy pls
  48. May 10 21:55:50 <scrubadour_mobile>     >Hating ttgl
  49. May 10 21:55:52 <Kusanagi>      There's a lot of people who hated TTGL
  50. May 10 21:55:55 <scrubadour_mobile>     :(
  51. May 10 21:56:02 <Kusanagi>      Well I mean
  52. May 10 21:56:21 <Kusanagi>      With /a/ yea
  53. May 10 21:56:31 <Kusanagi>      I've seen TTGL threads full of nothing but hate
  54. May 10 21:56:37 <scrubadour_mobile>     In my opinion that's like hating fun :( but i guess maybe i am easily amused 2pleb4u
  55. May 10 21:56:39 <Kusanagi>      I've seen the same with CG too though
  56. May 10 21:56:39 <theomeo>       TTGL had two points, on one hand it was an homage to old mecha bullshit, and if you're some kind of higher-level anime watcher who can appreciate that i cant really argue against it
  57. May 10 21:56:43 <ditv-toy>      Kusanangi: anteater.jpg
  58. May 10 21:56:45 <theomeo>       but the story on it's own is just terrible
  59. May 10 21:57:11 <ditv-toy>      *Kusanagi
  60. May 10 21:57:22 <scrubadour_mobile>     Yo nigga if i want a cool story i read a book
  61. May 10 21:57:27 <Kusanagi>      I agree the story was what ruined it for me
  62. May 10 21:57:28 <scrubadour_mobile>     But oh well
  63. May 10 21:57:43 <Kusanagi>      I have a friend who likes it a lot though
  64. May 10 21:57:49 <Kusanagi>      He watches it like once a year
  65. May 10 21:58:26 <ditv-toy>      One of my college buddies wooed a girl by carving her a spiral key in soapstone for a necklace.
  66. May 10 21:59:17 <theomeo>       for some reason japan cannot make a good story that also has good action
  67. May 10 22:00:10 <theomeo>       and also lack of a middle ground usually too
  68. May 10 22:00:28 <ditv-toy>      *Serially They can do it in movies occasionally and short subjects consistently.
  69. May 10 22:00:33 <theomeo>       [battle shounen] -> [action-packed drama] ->>>>>>> suddenly everything is moe
  70. May 10 22:00:55 <Kusanagi>      What about moe police in Psycho Pass
  71. May 10 22:01:07 <ditv-toy>      Moe is the black fire burning in the centre of the universe, driving the wheels of heaven.
  72. May 10 22:02:22 <theomeo>       well i meant more like an action middle ground, moe things can be mixed in with action but, i've rarely seen a decent dramatic story with _some_ action, think psycho pass and bebops fall somewhere into that category but its rare anyway
  73. May 10 22:02:43 <Kusanagi>      Space dandy
  74. May 10 22:02:44 <theomeo>       they either have to go all out on the action and make the story suffer because children, or appeal to SoL lovers or something
  75. May 10 22:02:47 <Kusanagi>      Except it has no story
  76. May 10 22:03:15 <Kusanagi>      SoL with panties is why I'm here though
  77. May 10 22:03:47 <HD-DVD>        lol
  78. May 10 22:04:00 <ditv-toy>      What's SoL?
  79. May 10 22:04:04 <theomeo>       i like all sorts of stuff but i do have a preference
  80. May 10 22:04:05 <Kusanagi>      Slice of life
  81. May 10 22:04:14 <Kusanagi>      Are panties one of them
  82. May 10 22:04:30 <Kusanagi>      Is it why you are here
  83. May 10 22:04:32 <theomeo>       depending on genre and demographic, yes
  84. May 10 22:04:43 <ditv-toy>      Oh okay, I thought you were referring to a specific anime.
  85. May 10 22:04:46 <Kusanagi>      I'm here for the anime butts too
  86. May 10 22:05:29 <ditv-toy>      Figmas have Patented Ass Technologyâ„¢ that's off the chain.
  87. May 10 22:05:36 <theomeo>       I like DxD for what it is, even though I know it's not a masterpiece, titty lasers and body related comedy, or MM! for similar reasons
  88. May 10 22:05:46 <Kusanagi>      DxD was pretty awesome
  89. May 10 22:06:06 <Kusanagi>      Hypno butt is forever
  90. May 10 22:06:49 <theomeo>       shame i dont really think S2 was as good (we knew that'd happen) can only hope they were saving budget for S3, art was worse and so were OP and ED, but LN readers knew S2 would be shitty because LN was shitty around that time
  91. May 10 22:07:07 <theomeo>       it gets way funnier later on if you wanna kill some time and read it
  92. May 10 22:07:09 <Kusanagi>      I needed more hypno butt in the second season
  93. May 10 22:07:25 <theomeo>       i didnt know there could be so many retarded superpowers
  94. May 10 22:07:35 <ditv-toy>      Man, all these acronyms are just serving to remind me how out of touch with the anime game I've become.
  95. May 10 22:08:01 <theomeo>       ditv-toy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_School_DxD
  96. May 10 22:08:25 <theomeo>       OP = opening, ED = ending, LN = light novel, not sure what else will help lol
  97. May 10 22:08:56 <ditv-toy>      theomeo: Thanks, but I've looked 'em all up (and I know the termes d'art), but my point still stands.
  98. May 10 22:09:10 <Kusanagi>       /a/ uses acronyms all the time (pretty cause lazy but also likely so they don't spoonfeed people)
  99. May 10 22:09:27 <ditv-toy>      I haven't been vaguely "with it" since like TTGL, *maybe* Casshern Sins.
  100. May 10 22:09:45 <theomeo>       i think OP and ED at least originated in nippon
  101. May 10 22:09:50 <ditv-toy>      Which I couldn't get through, because god damn.
  102. May 10 22:10:14 <Kusanagi>      Casshern sins is pretty bad I think I only watched like 2 episodes
  103. May 10 22:10:19 <ditv-toy>      Still love cashews, though, best nut.
  104. May 10 22:10:31 <Kusanagi>      ur a cashew
