How can anyone argue old slop is better than new slop? Battle Harems of the past was way worse than battle harems of today.

Iruma-kun and TenSura are pretty good. Better than stuff like Mushoko Tensei, Re:Zero, Konosuba, Youjo Senki, Inuyasha, Fushigi Yuugi, etc.

Shit taste. Slime is my 2nd favorite isekai but there's an extreme power gap between it and Mushoku Tensei. And I don't really have any dislike about Iruma, but Hayate did the cute misfortunate goodboy MC that can crossdress in a less gayer and more fun way

The only good shows in that pic are Eminence and Mushoku. But Mushoku is old slop with a late adaptation so it's a draw. Also everything here sucks compared to Tenchi Muyo and Ranma 1/2 so actually giga-old slop wins.

Old? The only thing here I'd consider old is zero no tsukaima but even that ain't that old. Damn the average age of this board must be going down again.
Also Mushoku Tensei clears but its about as old as some of the other stuff you listed as old so idk what to say.

If it isn't low production value it isn't slop.
Plus per capita there were always less battle harems than their are modern narou shit.

No, the average age of the board is the only constant here. It's everything else that gets older and less in-vogue.

This. Apart from Infinite Stratos, the peak of battle harems were in the tail end of the genre. ZnT isn't even a battle harem, it's the progenitor of modern isekai.

Sadly this, when they aired most of top series were on my backburner and nobody would claim any of them are a must watch masterpiece, it was just trashy entertainment to pad out the season and everyone knew that.
You say that about any bottom series and you will get multiple angry responses with people trying to argue it's actually good.

Old slop has more soul. Look at those beautiful vivid saturated colours, interesting varied settings (even your pic related has vampires, sci-fi, harry potter and battle royale). interesting waifu personalities and designs + amazing techno soundtrack:
https://youtu.be/WuO7_gTlRkk?feature=shared

Meanwhile modern slop is the same isekai setting (4 of your series are isekai), drab pastel colours with intense lighting and little contrast, waifus all look the same and bland fantasy music.

Yes both are campy and poorly written but you canโ€™t deny the charms and variety offered by old slop. Meanwhile nowadays itโ€™s always the same bland shit

Why is Mushoku Tensei even on this list? You know I watched all the top shows back then, but I watched them as the low-tier fodder trash they were and went in without expectations. Meanwhile I went in Mushoku Tensei this decade like I was watching Gintama, Soul Eater, Kuroko no Basket, Attack on Titan, etc etc back then. They're essentially on different class.

The fact the term slop is even being used as if it's held up to some kind of standard where you can have better or worse kinds of slop is just, well, it's AIDS. I don't know what else to say. Every thread just gets worse.

I'm an oldfag and anime is honestly better than ever. Except, I feel like sometimes older shows took weird ass risks in terms of style, like Noein or Windy Tales, Tweeny Witches, or Dennou Coil. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough?

Nah. Tensura got the "highest" volume sales from combining all of its spinoffs/manga adaptations which comes out to over 80 volumes, and Inuyasha still sold more. It's crazy to think that Tensura is more popular than an iconic classic like Inuyasha. In terms of blu-ray sales, it's not even in the same league as Konosuba and Re:Zero, and they have way more fanart too.
