Thread 279663341

I allways hated this type of reactions but now I also feel shame for consuming a medium that thinks this is ok.
Once a show is rated +13 this type of shit should be out.

>>279663341 (OP)
dude, grow up. no one is too old to watch anime.

>>279663341 (OP)
>the one character who emotes in Frieren
>basically acts like Zenitsu
Monkey's paw

>>279663341 (OP)
I watched Soremachi recently, and my biggest gripe was Hotori acting like a spoiled child in the first few episodes. Wanted to correct her so bad. Thankfully they eased up on that shit later on, and I grew to like her character.

>show is rated +13
that's clearly too old for you

>>279663341 (OP)
Sure faggot the door is that way

>>279663341 (OP)
>I get mad
If anything you're too young for anime, especially shounen.

>>279663341 (OP)
It is a Shounen after all
If you're too old for shit like Ben 10 and Adventure Time then you're probably too old for Fire Force and Dan Da Dan

>>279663341 (OP)
Personally I think, in the most heterosexual way a man can think of a male character, that these kind of reactions and scenes are kind of cute and enjoyable in this series.

>>279663341 (OP)
>Am I too old to watch anime...
Depends what anime you're watching....

>>279663672
No man over 12 reacts this way, that's why is cringe

>>279663715
Anon, we all know that shit like Perfect Blue is not the standard in the industry.

>>279663721
>12
>man
Dude, you are depressing.

>>279663760
And you are an American, emotion and feelings over logic is the way men in your country think.

>>279663822
How do denizens of the global south like you even manage to discover the Japanese animation subculture and 4chan as a website?

>>279663925
Piracy is view as a moral duty down here.

>>279663341 (OP)

You're not too old, these are simply not made for you. There are old shows made for actual children like Dragonball or the og Pokemon that are far easier to tolerate with close to none of this nonsense even though you'd expect it to be a thing since the cast is actual children.

This is new-gen garbage, they have a horse and beat it to death until there's nothing left of its corpse. Just drop them and move on if they feel insufferable, your intuition is probably on point. I'm in the same boat, I'm giving anything that came after 2016 exactly one episode to not piss me off with something and if they can't manage that I drop and just move on.

You're joking, right?

>>279664298

You wish I was shill, I've been rewatching DB recently and whatever tomfoolery you get out of the cast is nothing compared of what you get in 1 min out of Zenitsu in Demon Slayer. (using this as an example since I don't mind Stark personally, managed to watch Frieren just fine) Pokemon is harder to digest but I still managed to get 20 smth episodes in before I quit, though this wasn't the main reason for doing so.

>>279664393
Toriyama's products are for the toddler audience thougheverbeit.The same way wester poop media's core audience is like 3-6 year olds.

>>279663341 (OP)
I love any reaction face when it's done by anime girls, not much when it's done not by anime girls.

>>279664845

That's exactly my point, how is it that a product that has toddlers as its main audience is easier to watch as an adult than supposed modern day "seinen"? (it's not just shonnens suffering from this). I'm not sure I'd be capable to watch DB from scratch now as a 35 yod if I had no nostalgia for it but I can at least objectively appreciate the direction and the writing in spite of it being a children's show.

One other example I can offer is Patlabor since I tried watching it recently for the first time, I dropped it specifically cause it's too silly and infantile at times to take seriously but I love the OVA and the movies. The problem I had with the TV show was its light hearted nature where everything has no weight and it had nothing to do with insufferable characters screaming or doing dumb faces, so in that sense it's a show I would recommend to anyone (even adults) without feeling like a clown, not something I can say about something like Demon Slayer.

So going back to DB, in the worst case scenario I'd see it the same way I'm seeing Patlabor TV had I not seen it first as a kid. This is the case for other older stuff I dropped, can't remember a single instance of something pissing me off in the way this new garbage does.

Agree, try not cringing when a family member who doesn't watch anime (e.g. your parents)
walk in just as this types of scenes are happening, good luck covincing then you are not a manchild

>>279665243
That's the tradeoff for living in a culture that doesn't kick you out of their house the minute their legal obligation to take care of you ends

>>279665243
you shouldn't be living with your parents as an adult to begin with

>>279665243

That is one way to put it. Not that I care about normie opinions but as a measuring stick it's a fun thought experiment, what would X or Y say if they saw these shows, if I had to introduce a parent or even a kid to anime I'd just start them off with Ghibli and keep them as far away as possible from modern shounen.

Even as a kid I had issues with typical shounen bullshit (so think every time Naruto throws a fit) but they were a different kind of insufferable compared to this new crop.

>>279663721
No man over 12 acts like that guy in taken either, but old, grown men with families think it's the coolest shit.
Everyone is cringe. It's what makes us human.

>>279665887
So? Ok its hard to find a man in real life that acts exactly like, let's say, Levi from AoT all the time.
But is more rare to find a guy older than 15 that over reacts like a shonen mc over anything

>>279663341 (OP)
Calling fear childish is unironically one of the most childish things you could ever say. You sound like one of those manosphere cucks. Keep watching and you'll see how brave he actually is.

>>279663672
"JUST START DATING ALREADY!!!"

>>279663925
Believe it or not, even the global south has internet access. Shocking, I know. Turns out, it might not actually be a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

>>279667731
Allready watched the show, if not fear what i'm criticizing, is the tonal shift that most anime have even when the show is not a comedy or aimed at kids.

>>279667789
No seas tan ardido, los latinos os tomais a pecho todo.

>>279663721
yes we do bro
have you never seen how a young dad talks to their newborn with an honeyed voice? do you find it cringe as fuck?

>>279663341 (OP)
>getting mad at cartoons
get a job loser

>>279663341 (OP)
>I am too old
Honestly, as i grew older, my heart became colder, so seeing someone react to the world around them in an emotional way comes off endearing. If i had to explain it, i'd be like "wow, Stark sure is lively, haha".

>>279667930
Tonal shift and kishotenketsu are tied together. Not much to be surprised about, when asians write in an asian way.

>>279663440
It's really nice seeing her grow as the manga goes on. She starts to mature a lot in a realistic way while still keeping her childish charm.

I watch anime for the realistic characters

>>279666613
that's the joke

Frieren's writer has no idea how to convey emotion so he has Stark do these really exaggerated bits. It's not all bad though, it breaks up the monotony of everyone having blank faces all the time.

Why are you watching chinese cartoons in the first place if you feel like you're too old for it?

You're a fucking retard, over the top reactions are part of the appeal of animated characters. Exaggeration is one of the key principles of animation.

>>279663422
>>279670559
It's funny that Aura conveyed a wider range of emotions in one episode than most of the cast did for the entire show and the mangaka is confused about her popularity.

>>279670559
this retarded author should have only done frieren this autistically kuudere, or only elves if he wanted to stick to the elves lore, but this shit makes no fucking sense, no one displays any emotion in this manga except himmel and stark

>>279668291
As soon as my animation critic channel takes off I'll be making good money.

It’s supposed to be how they feel on the inside

>>279671003
You are a shonentard and your brain is fried

>>279665243
I stopped caring what they thought when I realized a lot of the live action stuff they watched was also full of stupid and cringey tropes.

>>279663341 (OP)
You are to retarded kid who thinks that he's old

>>279663822
Emotions and feelings is why we’re number 1 maybe your turd world shithole should try it

>>279671003
Yo need every character to be a Goku clone in order to see emotions in characters

You wish, mutt

>>279670559
>>279671003
The author just might be a boring person. A common pitfall I see authors doing is making too many characters like themselves. It's most jarring when a story doesn't have a single creative or imaginative character, it almost immediately confirms the author has aphantasia or no inner monologue.

>>279663341 (OP)
I'm surprised he wasn't voiced by that va from the prince mecha show

>>279663341 (OP)
Getting mad at cartoons isnt a sign of maturity, Anon

>>279671003
To be honest more kuuderes is exactly what this medium needs, I rather have characters behaving like what we see in Frieren than dozen goku clone Mc's per seasons

>>279671434
Live action-watching normalfags have zero right to complain about the shouting and fanservice in anime, considering the constant histrionic screaming matches (often complete with random crying babies to escalate them) and pointless humping in bed scenes that live action series and movies tend to have.

>>279672221
Don't forget the """reality""" shows.

>>279672221
It's still more dignified than watching characters turn into chibi, screaming, overreacting, and saying childishly stupid things in a supposedly dramatic show with mature themes.
Not to mention the fan service. I'd much rather have a gratuitous sex scene in a Hollywood movie than an excuse to strip a loli.

>>279672571
Then stop watching those anime. There are plenty without those tropes.

>>279663721
yes yes yes all men should be stoic emotionless robots that do not even flinch during a plane crash because that would give you the ick isn't that right sis?

>>279670942
>the mangaka is confused about her popularity.
That alone is funnier than any of the actual humor in Frieren

I feel bad for saying this since I know they're just cultural differences but I find a lot of the anime I watch grating

>>279672571
Ah, a tryhard juvenile that only watch mature things to impress the others I see.
I understand, we all used to have such phase too, you'll get over it sooner or later.

>>279663341 (OP)
it's funny. chill the fuck out.

No you're too crotchety, it correlates with age but that's not the root cause.

>>279677741
>it correlates with age
Underage maybe

>>279673920
That's how God intended for men to be, isn't it? We're meant to be builders, hunters and occasionally a shoulder to cry on so women and children can get the most out of their lives. It's our instinct to want to care for a woman or child, it's not our instinct to want to care for men that should be alongside us making sure everything works. So as men, it gives us the icks when we see someone like a Zenitsu.

I'm so fuckin tired of zogniggers and their evil deities.

Does Stark dye his hair? Why are his roots black?

>>279679338
IDK, but I love him and also Fern is fat.

>>279679594
>Fern is fat
Nah, there's a scene where she sits on a barstool and we see a clear outline of her bony skeleton ass.

>>279677526
cringe

>>279678917
That's what Stark is

>>279675827
Consuming fantasy is not the problem, Tonal shifts out of nowhere in a show that wants to make the audience immerse in that world is the problem.

>>279678869
I won't die for no one in some fucking war and i get a massive boner when I see women crying, but you are right, when men act like this it makes me sick, specially considering Stark is supposed to be warrior so he should have some of Eisen personality in him.

>>279663341 (OP)
you're not too old you've just got a stick lodged too far up your ass

>>279681754
Strange, I see red when women start crying and screaming. I mean it makes me absolutely fucking livid. Not toward whatever made them cry, but the women themselves, I want to start whaling on em. I can't fucking stand the sound of loud crying for some reason.

>>279681784
Tears are hot, and if they are crying they probably deserve it.

If you cried during this scene, you have low T.
You just met the motherfucker

>>279663341 (OP)
nigga you is fucking 30+ years old. shut the fuck up and watch your damn chinese cartoon in peace.

A similar scene would be Billy from "Predator" being the only one admiting he is in fear.
Is more elegant, more gracious and more mature than Stark getting all chibi and screaming with a super high japanese boy.

displaying emotion doesn't mean you're autistically loud or genki about it, you dumb fuck
