I think Jotaro is actually really cute and has a subtle character growth in SC, but you have to be paying attention. It doesn't justify being rude to his mother, though (even though he mostly calls her an old hag, it's still rude af)
But I do agree that he's way too OP and Star Platinum's main ability is to advance the plot lmao

Fire Emblem Echoes is fucking shit and anyone who positively compares it to Awakening or Fates probably only watched a let's play of it on youtube. The only positive things I have to say about it is that the music is good and Berkut is such an entertaining piece of shit and his English VA is so into the role that his scenes are ok. Anyone who praises the English voice acting overall for not being absolutely shitty is retarded too.
>Amazing! We got a complete product that wasn't botched by the voice director and his shitty headcanons or American memes! This deserves an Oscar!!1!No, fuck off.
I also do not trust anyone who says a game is utter complete shit and when asked why their first and often only answer is "because the story is bad", unless it's a visual novel. This applies especially to FE Fates which had really good gameplay in the two original versions and MGS2 which didn't even have a bad story in the first place.
>>77741You're correct.
>But I do agree that he's way too OP and Star Platinum's main ability is to advance the plot lmaoI'm sure that's why he becomes less powerful in later parts.

It amazes me that people still praise Edelgard and act like her ending is the best for Fodlan when the other routes prove that Rhea is just a scapegoat. Her winning the war turns Fodlan into a playground for the Adrestian nobility that sucked up to her enough, and doesn't solve any of the real problems.
She's not even fun as a misguided villain because her fans are constantly talking about how the other lords are horrible and stupid just to make her look better.
No. 78415
>>78408I can't stand people obsessed with Edelgard who only played her route and think that Dimitri and Rhea are absolute monsters for being violent when defending themselves because of well-written PTSD while Edelgard colonizes an entire continent and is responsible for the torture and death of a bunch of people but it's ok if it's for a greater cause. I played CF after AM and was disappointed to see her written as a kawaii waifu after the timeskip when she was such a cool, stylish and vaguely mysterious antagonist in AM and before the timeskip in CF she and Hubert were so obviously evil they were at least entertaining. I don't even dislike Edelgard but she could have been so much more interesting.
My own unpopular opinion about 3H is that it's badly written and even developed as a game overall. It's like the developers wrote a cool "might makes right" villain based on previous villains in the series, made her a teenage girl, saw that FEH makes more money than the real games because people spend money and orbs for the cute girl units and decided at the last minute to make her cuter and more marketable. Don't get me started on the mole guys and how shitty Byleth is. And there's the fact that despite having 4 routes they have the exact same maps most of the time, and only CF tried to give different goals in the repeated maps. People who were shitting on Fates for selling its vastly different base game versions separately and praising 3H for not doing it with its 4 routes that are 80% similar at best are retarded. People who shitted on Corrin for being their own character and only a self-insert for gameplay purposes but are praising Byleth for being well-written are so retarded I wonder if they actually played the game and didn't just read a bunch of headcanons on tvtropes.

>>78410I like reading movie reviews when I'm trying to decide what to watch. There are only so many hours in a day but so many movies to see, and I'm not spending 2 hrs on something that's been universally panned. Likewise I might reconsider watching something with a premise that doesn't appeal to me if it's being highly praised. It's not foolproof but it's helpful.
Music reviews, I definitely don't see the point of. Music is a sensory thing, either something sounds good to me or it doesn't and it takes zero analysis or intellectual consideration to come to that conclusion. And since a song takes 3 minutes on youtube, it's not saving me time either.

>>78423Be prepared to feel really bad for Dimitri and Rhea, they're literally just defending themselves against a self-righteous invader with a savior complex.
I think CF is only enjoyable if you play it first and truly believe that Rhea is an evil beast, Dimitri is delusional and obsessed with Edelgard for no reason. Oh, and you need to invade the Alliance and Kingdom because they're Adrestian clay, after all. What's more progressive than revanchism?
The sad part is that we could have had a really good bi girl option with Edelgard, but her route just makes her look like a lovestruck teenager obsessed with Byleth for no reason. You don't ever question her decisions or ponder about the morality of her actions, like her using TWSITD to spread chaos across Fodlan, turning crestless people in demonic beasts, allowing Jeritza to murder people for her, turning a blind eye to Hubert's evil actions. You never dig deep with her. The writers just expected you to be satisfied with a cute blonde girl drawing pictures of you. She really feels like she was meant to pander to straight guys most of the time.
You can tell the writers were getting inspiration from the chaos routes from SMT games, but the happy ending in CF feels completely unearned. CF's tone also feels weirdly cheerful.

>>78424>I think CF is only enjoyable if you play it first and truly believe that Rhea is an evil beast, Dimitri is delusional and obsessed with Edelgard for no reason.Either that or if you see it as the villain route it starts as before the timeskip.
I made sure to kill Claude, Seteth and Flayn because the story makes more sense this way and even Edelgard and Hubert tell you it's for the best if you do that. And try to get a gameover in the chapter where you have to rescue Flayn or try to kill Dimitri before Dedue after the timeskip to make sure you can see how much of an asshole Edelgard really is. I would have loved her to be as much of an asshole as Hubert because it would have been a fun route this way.
>CF's tone also feels weirdly cheerful.I've been told she's basically a badly-written Arvis because she's female!Arvis but with half of his storyline removed. I've never played FE4 but basically he does the same shit as her and after a long timeskip it bites him in the ass really hard. CF isn't a bad route because at least its maps are a bit different from the other routes but it feels unfinished when it comes to the story.

I don't particularly like Ghibli movies, especially Miyazaki's, there's something about the animation and the character design that pisses me off, I don't know why. I'm kinda wary about people who can't stop raving about these movies (the inevitable "did you go to ghibli museum?" when you mention your trip to Japan), although I agree with what everyone said about Howl's, I found it way better than what is generally said about it, whereas Spirited Away grossed me out.
I also don't like Tomie, every story is the exact same (but that can be said for a lot of Junji Ito's stories), random people fall under her charms and they get killed gruesomely, but for some reasons, it's his most famous and beloved character.

>>78582I think Howl's a good movie but the book is way better. The characters have more personality(Howl is a nasty bitch and Sophie doesn't take his shit).
Kakyoin from JJBA is overrated and no one would give a shit about him if there weren't memes about milfs or if he didn't want to sleep in the same room with Jotaro. Tumblr fujos have to make up shit tons of headcanons(mostly self-insterts) to justify finding him a good character.
No. 79160
>>79149This is actually the first time I see somebody sharing my opinion about Kakyoin, thank you for posting! I think a huge part of his mischaracterization comes from that fucking CLAMP doujinshi that caught on for whatever reason. Fujos love to paint him as this sensitive and shy boy, but actually he is a pretty big asshole that's mostly useless (gets killed twice, gets wrecked at video games despite being a neet, unable to properly communicate with teammates…). He also has imho one of the least memorable stand design and power (tbf a problem suffered by most part 3 stands, but at least Silver Chariot or Magician Red look cool).
As for popular JoJo characters, I can't stand Narancia either, I always thought he was an annoying little shit.
Speaking of CLAMP, I think most of their mangas are bad, they are good at chara design and story premises, but they are atrocious at narrative art and dialogues, and their stories always evolve into convoluted messes or they never finish them out of laziness. I don't even think they are still popular, I've never heard young anime fans talking about them.

His obsession with lesbians is very creepy, would not be surprised if he was exposed as a sex pest. I don't get when people say his animes are deep and tackle important subjects, they are super pretentious and riddled with nonsensical metaphors.
A Silent Voice is only emotional schlock and does nothing to bring awareness to deaf people, Shoko does not have her own agenda or inner voice, she's just the agent of redemption of the MC, and every character is there to suffer for dumb reasons.
I'm also not very fond of Kyo Ani, there animes are a lot style and no substance to me, Violet Evergarden being the prime example, this series is a chore to watch with the overblown animation and visual effects.

>>79242I know you will not change your opinion, but since you asked… but people love Utena for well-written characters, great portrayals of
abusive relationships and smart critic of gender roles (which was honestly unthinkable in the 90's anime). The dialogue is well written and the script flows in a way that resembles 'normal' movies and TV series and not anime with it's cringey cliches (except for scenes when it's laughing at them, like Nanami's oldschool shoujo manga villain antics). The weirdness is also enjoyable.
Utena probably is not an anime for you and that's fine, what animes do you consider good though? I'm curious since Utena is in my top 10, along with similar stuff. You probably have a very different taste, so it's interesting.

I got fairly odd parents vibes from it.Charming,likeable characters too
I love that Sabrina herself isn't an obnoxious "I'm so quirky and different look at me"type of protagonist like Luz,Sabrina knows she's different (a half witch) but she doesn't childishly show it to everyone (like Luz)not to mention she learns a lot of responsibilities and lessons throughout the show plus it's the only girl show with the best slapstick comedy

I have a huge "normies get out reeee" mentality, so whenever an adaptation of some of my favorite mangas (Devilman, Houseki no Kuni, Vinland Saga, Dorohedoro…) get announced, I always get anxious because it's going to draw in obnoxious new fans, mostly twitter fujos and genderspecials. Most of the time, the adaptation is subpar, but these people always refer to it without even checking the original manga. Look at the state of the current JoJo fanbase, all because of the anime. That's why I'm kinda glad when an anime adaptation is objectively bad (Berserk, Kingdom, Terraformars), it keeps these people at bay.
Likewise, I think FMA Brotherhood is a terrible adaptation with garbage direction, art and voice acting. It's the most highly rated anime on MAL, but it's only thanks to the story and the characters that are directly lifted from the manga, everything else is on par with any generic shounen anime. I don't like the 2003 anime either, but at least it's visually pleasant to watch.

I love apex legends/bloodhound is my favourite character. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I respect that, but I’m not at all pressed they’re canonically non binary/I think it kind of adds to the character in a way since we have literally no idea what’s under the mask.
What I’m worried for however, is that one of the devs mentioned we’ll be getting a shit ton of new law later this year. I should be excited, since a lot of it is centred around my favourite character, but I have a feeling it’ll be the classic ‘yeah let’s completely erase this awesome characters mysterious last/their origins and focus on the fact that they’re LGBT by making some big convoluted story about their past and coming of age with gender struggles etc etc’.
Hope this doesn’t sound spergy, it’d just be something I could totally see them doing to get brownie points. Especially if they make a special skin for the law drop; catch a bunch of teenagers dropping ridiculous amounts of money and lining the pockets of EA once again with their one actually decent game.

I don't care about Nintendo games and I hate how they are pushed onto us as the best games ever. I hate how they rehash the same licenses since the NES, and I don't like their new IPs either, every single game looks too cookie cutter and harmless. I'm not saying they should be edgy, but the way Nintendo absolutely wants to present themselves as family friendly is obnoxious.
Their fans are the worst, they always rave how "other companies want to make profit, only Nintendo makes fun games", which is dumb since I always had fun on the various PlayStations. Nintendo also has a lot a shady practices (games never discounted, online shop unavailable, autistically pursuing anybody who makes any kind of fangame…), but they never call them out on that. Let's not forget the unavoidable "Nintendo won E3!1!", yeah, I guess if you like Mario, Zelda and Splatoon.
I'm seeing everybody hyped for Animal Crossing, which I don't get at all, it looks incredibly boring.

>>79803I find it interesting that this is considered an unpopular opinion nowadays since it used to be the popular opinion among 'gamers' in my country for the longest time. People would laugh at you for liking AC as it's not a real gamer game aka FPS or action-adventure one. If you somehow bought a Nintendo console instead of Playstation or Xbox, people you were the butt of every joke.
Funny how things change.

>>79803>every single game looks too cookie cutter and harmlessThe very few times that's not the case everyone loses their shit so I can see why they're not trying too hard to change things. People were sperging about Zelda Twilight Princess at the time for being edgier, and Fire Emblem Fates was rated for 15 or 16 years old and above in Japan and had several characters with backstories straight out of Drakengard and the Western localizations butchered the game even in terms of gameplay (several DLCs never got released) so 3H is way less explicit. Although I think they want to change that reputation slowly but surely which is why they made Bayonetta a Nintendo series when there was an opportunity.
>games never discountedI hate that shit so much. I like some Nintendo games a lot but since they do that shit and recently started adding more and more DLCs I almost always wait so Ii can grab cheap second hand copies. If it weren't for 3H being a bit less than 45€ on amazon I wouldn't have played it, and now that I did I still think it was so half-assed that it should have cost even less.

>>79745Yes, same. I found those scenes kind of uncomfortable as I went through similiar things. But it wasn't addressed at all so I suppose it wasn't supposed to be seen as negative? But I don't think that is the explaination because as said, his friend pointedly said how he trusted him not to get his hands on her, and yet he does it. So I would like to think it was a negative aspect of the character? But he also goes on the whole spiel about how he loves her. Kinda iffy.
Has the director said anything about it?

>>79617Twitter doesn't do shit about the roving groups of retarded underages and their "fandom moms" going around harassing fanartists. Fanexus couldn't come sooner, if they manage to ban all the ship war baiting fags id be really happy. Fuck, I'm a pretty much exclusive m/f shipper and I've never seen this much sperging in my life. Who's idea was it to let children into fandom spaces?
Also, voltron was and still is a mess. Death threats sent to pretty much everyone in the show including VAs and holding leaks hostage all because of ships. People are still seething about sheith and klance to this day. It's impressive, voltron fujos are indeed a new breed of retarded. I hope they stay contained in that horrible little show forever.
>>80517I never thought about it that way. I just saw it as part of the chaos that everything was already going to shit, and i assumed the scenes were so horrific they didn't need an explanation. Like you were just supposed to look at them to gasp at the audacity of it all. Now that I think about it, i get the feeling that it was a little under addressed.

>>80571I enjoyed Firefly for the character dynamics and dialogue, they were very fun to me. But I'm really into westerns, so that helps.
Serenity felt like a completely different franchise though, they wrote everyone OOC (or outright killed them off) to justify a needlessly dark plot that made no sense. This is what happens when fans demand a mini-series/movie sequel, the Farscape mini-series was shit too.

>>80520I wish there was a better way to filter out underaged fans tbh. They’re so fucking obnoxious. I’m so tired of seeing them trying to role play in comment sections and harassing people over ships or gender identities.
>>79641I hope so too anon.

Ramuda has an absolutely grating voice and hypmic is for masochists. Also surprised mods on app sites don't delete meme reviews.

As for why kids exist in fandom spaces, nowadays all the interaction happens on Twitter. It's a big ass hub containing every person in the world and it has only limited interaction and a character limit that makes it easy to take tweets out of context. Back in the day we had Livejournal communities and forums dedicated to certain fandoms and the platforms required you to integrate and to articulate your points in longer posts, on Twitter (And Tumblr for that matter) you can just hop in anywhere you want to spew shit all over the floor with your 100-character hot takes and then block everyone/private your account when you're losing the fight. It's bound to be a disaster. Especially when the offending party is a 16-year old borderline autistic mental case with stunted emotional skills and a lot of parroted PC discourse.
