If Ufotable was the main reason for it's success why wasn't Touken Ranbu and Tales a success ?

because demon slayer is good but tards on Zig Forums are too contrarian to realize it.
Thats all there is to it.

>Touken Ranbu and Tales
Nothing in both these series is anything near episode 19 animation wise, also ToZ is the most disliked recent Tales game.

What's wrong about being contrarian with refusing to like a popular shounen anime? What, does Zig Forums needs to suck the balls of this series more than it already does?

because you shouldnt hate a series simply because it is popular. That is not a rational criticism nor should it be criticized any harder because its popular. Every show should be on equal ground when it comes to criticism .

If someone here genuinely believed this then this board is truly poisoned beyond repair.

I’d rather contrarians just admit they don’t like the anime just because its popular, or they were overhyped before going into the anime/manga, rather than dance around the reason or pull a reason out of their ass

>tards on Zig Forums can't grasp the complexity of my shitty battle manga
Ever heard the term shounentard? You're the reason it was coined.

It makes for pretty retarded criticism and board culture when it's all based around rationalizing contrarianism. See: Zig Forums

But on the other hand who cares go ahead

Be nice.

Demon Slayer was boring and the MC sounded like a faggot.

Did you watch the dub? That was your first mistake.

It's one of the least shitposted shonens on Zig Forums they stopped having a general thread a month ago.

I watched the sub, Hanae Natsuki is cancer

It’s gotten pretty shitpost-y still thanks to the sales threads feeding into the console war bullshit

Oh well then your opinion is just wrong.

If you think things should be hated because of popularity rather than flaws in writing, characters, plot, dialogue, art, etc then YOU are part of the problem with Zig Forums. Nobody needs the Zig Forums hates everything crowd here except shitposters who want nothing more than to start shit, i.e. literal trashposters

Compared to others though like hxh which has a daily general thread despite no content in 2 years, and that's not even as bad as bnha or snk or dragonball or one piece. Fuck there are more evangelion threads than kny threads

Yeah those fandoms are definitely more shitpost-y

Because a polished rock is better than a polished turd.

He never even mentioned complexity.
Why do you think good is synonymous with complex?

did i once state that demon slayer was complex? A show doesnt have to be complex to be good.

Those are old fanbases though, except for snk and bnha. Those 2 attract faggots from tumblr. KnY was pretty unknown before the anime aired, the threads were barely reaching bump limit back then.

It's funny you say that considering KnY threads felt like old Zig Forums. I miss them

Those were the good old days

Early KnY really felt like a classic shounen of sorts, so that definitely added to the old Zig Forums feel. There were also fewer posters, so there was barely any shitposting, just anons enjoying a series.

Managed to last up until we had that week off from covid 19 and then all the shitposters joined in since it was ending. Oh and decuck had a mental breakdown and invented doushino posting. Fuck it was fun. I can't wait to see everyone's reaction to the movie. If episode 19 was enough to make anime onlys fall in love then the train arc and RLD is gonna be crazy

Nah I don't think it's all contrarianism.
I think it's just they're too immature to recognise the difference between their taste and good writing, or they think everything should be written for an intellectual audience.
Some of them are definitely just doing it because it's popular. They didn't give a shit about it until other people gave a shit about it and they take that as some kind of slight on them that they need to respond to by hating the popular thing or some shit.

>Why do you think good is synonymous with complex?
Is it not? Complexities and nuances are what makes conflicts in stories interesting, not simplicity. Simplicity is for those who refuse to think. Simple capeshit like Boku no Hero Academia is nowhere as good as complex capeshit like Watchmen.

That's your taste. You're just dismissing everything you don't like as bad and not even thinking about it.
Actual writers have to consider the realities of writing to an audience or they don't get to eat.
Low brow fiction isn't necessarily written by low IQ people.
The study of what audiences respond to is the study of appeal. You don't have to think about it if you dont want to be a writer though, just turn your brain off and watch what makes you feel good if you want

I don't think I'm dismissing things as bad without thinking about it. I can find enjoyment in the trashiest Isekais and still realize they're objectively bad. People like you though just delude themselves into simple is good when you justify your ignorance and lack of effort in engaging with material that's vastly more difficult than something that appeals to the lowest common denominator.
