Inui Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 no @ Ragefox I didn't like Clannad, but I honestly see why it's rated so high so I don't rage at being scored so high and having so many fans but you should have known this nigra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 And yet you criticize NGE while having not seen even a single episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defeatist Elitist Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 who is taylor swift who are those other people idk Well basically unless you've seen Serial Experiments Lain and Texhnolyze you cannot call someone an anime hipster and use it as an insult. Also, considering the popularity and mainstream nature of Eva and Code Geass liking them really can't be considered hipster at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esaka Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 All anime plots are stupid and convoluted, I think the only exception is Death Note and that obviously went out of its way to do so considering it's insane premise I think animes that express the insanity and play it up are the best ones, Gurren Lagann is my favorite for how it plays with the weirdness of it all as well as plenty of other reasons. But yes code Geass is stupid, can't believe I watched the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defeatist Elitist Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) All anime plots are stupid and convoluted I would argue that most anime plots are actually stupid and overly simplistic, and lack any real overall depth or complexity. There are some that might trick you into thinking they're complicated but half the shit is totally irrelevent. I mean, even Code Geass's plot wasn't that complicated in the end.

Defeatist Elitist Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 You guys should watch Usagi Drop :(. I didn't say all, I said most. 8] It doesn't just apply to anime either, it applies to all forms of fiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Usagi Drop is very simplistic, though. I don't think Revan was implying that lacking a deep and complex PLOT makes it bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galenforcer Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 So, what anime are good and have deep, intricate plot lines? Code Geass was okay the first time, but kinda meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This too. There are a number of things that can make a show good, it's just the majority of fiction tends to lack them. From what I've heard of Usagi Drop though it's quite good.

Well depth and complex plot are different, but I'll give you examples of several (mostly recent, because I can remember and vouch for them better) anime I would consider good: Durarara!! Serial Experiments Lain Clannad (and After Story) Ore no Imouto Haruhi We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day I could list some more I guess but that should be enough.

Florete Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ore no Imouto Why We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day This was good but I felt like it thought it was deeper than it actually was. I was actually kind of laughing at the epic cry-fest in the last episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangerine Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Usagi Drop is very simplistic, though. I don't think Revan was implying that lacking a deep and complex PLOT makes it bad. I don't really think Usagi Drop is simplistic . I mean, I guess the plot outline is pretty straightforward, but I wouldn't call it a simplistic show at all. It's just that a large majority of what makes it legitimately complex and thought-provoking relies entirely on your ability to interpret and understand what is happening on screen and between characters. It is easily one of the most gorgeous animated series' I've ever seen, and I don't mean that in regards to the art (though that's also quite awesome..). Why I concur >_>.

Rapier Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I like the insinuation made here: I hate these shows, so people who like one probably like the others and therefore have awful taste since I know better what is actually good. All right after: "I don't wish to speak with people like you guys who...are really disrespectful towards people." Idk which are worse: Lol hypocrites or trolls. What if they are a mix of both? Which is why I ignore threads like these, but this post was too shiny for me to leave without quoting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
