Why is anime so critically unfunny? I tried watching this and I'm just annoyed. Every joke is 'that's NOT supposed to happen UOOOHHHH' or 'this is awkward to experience UOOOHHH'

Did the Japanese people sacrifice humor for hentai art skills?

Western comedy is dead, though
Call it unfunny, at least it's welcomed

I thought Bobobo was quite funny though, maybe it's just that your sense of humor is different.

japanese people don't understand humor, at a basic level, because their language doesn't have things like sarcasm in it

should they take some cues from the west in how to be funny?

Kill yourself subhuman
All the shit humor you like is jewish trash

Humor depends heavily on the sensibilities of both the author and the watcher, and I don't think it's the fault of either of them.

I didn't get Bobobo when I first started it, but when I gave it a second chance something finally clicked. The "boke-tsukkomi/smart one-dumb one" dynamic may seem strange for the west now because stand-up comedy and all its derivatives have basically driven out almost every other kind of humor in the last 20 years, but it was still popular in the 90s.

Japanese humor is simply inherently unfunny

Bobobobobobo is a very Japanese show. 75% of the humor is based of Jap references. Unironically watch the dub, I laughed a lot when I was a child since they just bulldoze over the Nip jokes with Burger humor.

It's watched by autists with no humour, I don't expect anyone here to actually laugh at anything.

the dub is pretty good. the jap pun humour doesnt translate so the dubbers just went wild. almost like a different story

/thread

why tho

twerking is disgusting.

I found the manga funnier

Fuck i never noticed. They never even bothered to at least warp the hand around her ass so that it made it look like it had contact.

This anime really proves the differences in between american and japanese humor

>point out comedy anime is unfunny
>"BUT AMERICANS THOUGH"
Every fucking time.

But americans though

Bobobo actually is really funny, it's a shame he tried to make the sequel into a serious thing, it fell apart so fast. this right here should've been OP's pic

Bobobo is just an absurdist allegory for Colon Cancer though.
