Why has modern anime been so disappointing? I finally got around to these three, the most praised and hyped seasonals of last year, and they were all lackluster for different reasons. Is the bar really this low?
>The so called isekai for smart people, Shingo Natsume's first original is just artsy nonsense with flat non-characters that don't matter and you don't care for. Nothing in the show matters. There's no catharsis. It's just a waste of time mystery box show. It attracted the elitist pseud crowd of anons who like those mediocre 2000s anime like Tex and Kaiba but it somehow does everything much worse than those shows. For having MUH AUTEUR ARTHOUSE VISION it sure blew lots of dicks and I forgot it immediately after it was over. It referenced literature so you know it's really smart. >Odd Taxi had mediocre animation and direction and the plot, characters and dialogue weren't as smart and unique as many said it did. Interesting success story in that the writer and director never worked in anime and the show wasn't going to have Blurays in case it failed yet it ended up getting lots of praise and a big fandom. >Ousama Ranking had potential and blew it. It's very confused and messy. Also extremely emotionally manipulative akin to brainless moeshit shows where you have the cute moeblob character with a disability who cries and you go AWWWW like the automaton bugman you are. Once again a show that was extremely hyped by the community after the first few episodes for how gorgeous and NOT GENERIC ANIME the art style was but it's all wasted on what just ended up being mediocre shonenshit that doesn't know what it's trying to be or say. There's no real substance to it.
Yes yes yet another new anime bad old anime good bait shitpost. Im sure everyone will be gullilbe enough to give this thread 200 replies and encourage you to make the thread again when it falls off page 10 like you do every single fucking day.

It's just been a couple of "off" seasons. Let's just be patient, I'm sure anime will get good again soon.
You watch garbage just because other normalfags praise them. You then denounce the anime worth watching as moeshit without having watched them Then you conclude all modern anime is bad. All while loving moe series like LotGH & NGE.
Sadly, normalfags have locked themselves in a prison of shit anime and will seemingly never escape.

ok you actually got hard filtered by sonny boy but the other two are just flicks try watching it when you're older

I'm not shitposting. I'm tired of anons here expecting me to jerk off any show solely for having MUH AESTHETICS AND VISION. There's nothing to any of these shows, they just aren't high school isekais with the bright hair so they're the lesser evil yet I hate grading evils. I just want a good show and I don't like seeing mediocrity be praised. I also forgot about Heike Monogatari which was also pretty shitty and rushed.

there's nothing novel about sonny boy. it just looked cool and had nice music. yes yes you need to experience pain and suffering in order to grow as a person. it's just didactic garbage dressed up as something more.
Hunter King
Why not just read a fucking book if you don't care about aesthetics in anime?
Cooper Cox
All I see is pretentious trash, no one praised those garbage shows.
Bentley Bell
>it just looked cool and had nice music this is enough to be a good show. what else do you want?
Alexander Powell
>this is enough to be a good show because your standards are rock bottom
Connor Collins
ok kid just go jack off to angels egg for the 14th time then
Owen Morales
Ousama Ranking is hot garbage for shounen shitters.
Adam Flores
Forgettable trash. Anime is a creatively dead medium.
Thomas Sanchez
because you touch yourself at night
Adam Perez
Seasonal anime was always garbage outside of the late 2000s-early 2010s bubble.
Oliver Campbell
The idea that a medium was good or bad at any point in time is stupid because it all depends on how many series you liked in that period which will be completely different for everybody
Thomas Nelson
Vivy was better than all of those
Caleb Howard
Why are you watching that garbage instead of Bisque Doll in the first place?
