Why do people hate moe?

because some people are so pathetic they seek intellectual validation from "watching anime correctly" and moe/moe fans are one of the easiest targets to persecute

i know cause i was like that

Probably in a second wind addition sometime next summer along with the K-ONs. It's pretty sensible to go with the lesser kiraras now so that the addition becomes relatively exciting, and people play the game hoping to one day have Mugi and Chiya on their team. Blow the load early and nobody gives a shit about how many of the lesser kiraras you cram in later.
It's kinda like how the match for the third place is played before the finals.

Anime started declining around the same time moe became popular.
Moe is also incredibly lazy and unoriginal. It's always the same shit.

>>165666401
Yeah, I used to be like that as well. Thankfully I eventually grew the fuck up and stopped caring about what other people thought of my taste in anime, and now I've fully embraced the cute girls.

I just finished Chimera Ant yesterday, and I'm probably not the first person to ever say this, but this arc is fucking great. The thing that most struck me is how the entire arc felt like one long work of literature, like a 19th century baroque novel or a Shakespearean tragedy. It's rife with symbolism, irony, themes, and felt appropriately mature and tonally rich. Some of the passages spoken by the narrator were so beautiful and memorable (e.g. the humans in the sky line), and the narration served to create the feeling that I was reading some intricate tapestry of prose. I loved how tragic and anticlimactic the death of Meruem was, because it was richly meaningful in tandem with the themes presented by the arc; and it's because of this that I speak of him in the same way I do as Macbeth, or Oedipus, or John Milton's Lucifer. Some scenes, like the match-cut of the boots stomping on the insects between the Rose bomb used on human cities spoke to me on a visceral level.

Both thoughts are right. If you're watching it like a battle/action serie, chimera ants looks like a poor written arc where 45mn is spread on 40episodes.
If you want to watch it as OP did (written like a book, etc) Chimera ant is a good piece of work.

The thing is, HxH is a shonen, and people are disappointed because this arc could've been one of the best shonen arc ever written.

For me this is just choosing a point of view and sticking to it.

Tone it down a notch OP. It does make for some good cynical humor though; that the greatest power the earth has ever witnessed, formed by great chance and with the nourishment of powerful warriors, is nothing really compared to even a mid grade dirty bomb.

Honestly watched, and forgotten. Maybe most 80's/90's anime that was available in the special interests/foreign section at video rental shops would apply to this thread.

This show was great in a way. Never have I seen the protagonists get their asses kicked so hard and for so long. They were getting recked for 90% of the show because of a freaking TRANSLATION error. "The guardians will protect the miko with their true powers untill she awakens" was actually "The guardians will OBTAIN their true powers WHEN the miko awakens". Ooops.

It's just as bad. It occasionally has the odd skit that is funny or just outright insane, but most episodes are just fucking boring.

There's a thread somewhere else in here discussing the same thing. I'd say we might be in for some big character development soon, especially if Camie is actually Toga and she's planning on erasing Baku/Todo/Endeavor's quirk.

I could totally see Deku snapping if something like that happened, because he'd shoulder the blame for letting the VA get the serum in the first place, like he always does.

Why are they even depressed? Nobody died, except for Sir, and there were no casualties apart from Mirio, but only Deku has some history with those two.
Kirishima was almost dead, but still he acts like he didn't saved Fatgum.
Ochako and Tsuyu were useless, yeah, but becoming mindbroken? Somebody please explain, I've reread the arc two times now and still don't get their facial expressions.

Is there any worse feeling than catching up to a currently-running manga only to realize you're now stuck waiting forever for more chapters to come out?

Teppu was one. Author returned and then ended it early because he was worried about dying.

Currently World Trigger. It has gone over a year now on hiatus. The author claimed to be alive during the summer and DID release a volume, but that's it.

I loved how it developed the no-name side characters, and the show as a whole probably wouldn't have felt as textured as it did had it been missing, but it went on a bit too long and really did just feel like filler by the end.
>>
>>165615327
Because the series is really just about a bunch of teenagers coming to grips with their own identities, with many of them disliking what they discover about themselves. Sexuality plays a big part of that.

>>165662950
Remember that most people on this site are probably teenagers themselves. Half of the threads on /a/ about Utena revolve around the events of episode 33. What more evidence do you need?
